Chapter 20

This is Lin Cheng's other A-rank puppet, the Daiduosi Sect.

All puppets possess basic Summoner skills—puppet summoning and recall. Within a thousand-meter radius centered on Lin Cheng, summoning and recall have no cooldown.

This time, however, Lin Cheng used the long-range puppet summoning function.

Through Ace's positioning, he deployed the Daiduosi Sect directly into the stronghold of the Phantom Lord from a distance.

"How diligent."

"Even at the moment when victory is already in hand, you still don't forget to plan the next step."

Seeing that Yuese had discovered him, Daiduosi spoke in that eerie tone: "President Yuese, you truly are far too diligent. Compared to you, I am so slothful as to feel unworthy of 'her' love for me."

"Ah, how truly slothful of me—I forgot to introduce myself again."

"I am the Monu Sect's Dazuisi Sect, the Daiduosi Sect incumbent—Petelgeuse Romaneeconti!"

Saying so, Daiduosi once more placed his finger into his own mouth and bit down on it.

Accompanied by the sound of flesh tearing, crimson blood flowed down from Daiduosi's cracked lips.

To be honest, Lin Cheng really didn't want to do something this perverted, but for the sake of the character setting, he had no choice but to do it.

Of course, when biting his finger, Lin Cheng had activated the puppet intelligence mode, letting the puppet carry out the finger-biting behavior on its own.

"Interesting."

"To be able to evade every single one of my Phantom Lord members and arrive here without a sound."

"You must be a Dark Mage."

Yuese looked at Daiduosi in his madman pose, his eyes narrowing slightly. He set down the goblet of fine red wine in his hand and said calmly, "What is your purpose?"

At this moment, though Yuese appeared utterly nonchalant, he had already become completely alert.

However, it was a great pity—if Lin Cheng truly wanted to kill him, in that single instant just now, dozens of Unseen Hands could have instantly killed Yuese, rendering his so-called defenses utterly meaningless.

Still, once one knows some intelligence on Daiduosi, then Daiduosi is no longer so unsolvable.

In RE: 0, many characters indirectly countered the Unseen Hand's concealment trait through external means—such as dust, ice chips, and so forth—all of which can make the Unseen Hand visible.

"A noble will guides me, who am deeply beloved and dearly cherished."

"'She' merely requires me to wait here for the final outcome."

Daiduosi's expression turned somewhat frenzied as he said, "To receive such boundless love, yet at this very moment I need only stay here, stand here, do nothing—nothing at all."

"This truly is unworthy of diligence, far too slothful."

"My brain trembles beneath the endless love."

"..."

Though Daiduosi had obediently stated his purpose, Yuese felt he hadn't gathered any intelligence at all.

The only thing Yuese could tell was that the green-haired fellow before him—who clearly didn't look like any normal person—was probably some Dark Mage from a Dark Mage guild.

"Forget it."

"I imagine you wouldn't dare act presumptuously before me, Joseph Bora, one of the Ten Holy Mages."

Yuese sat back down, picked up the red wine he had set aside moments ago, took a sip, and said with a light smile, "Then, as a special exception, I'll permit you to watch alongside me as Fairy Tail is destroyed."
