Chapter 739 Temporary Machine Council (2)
·
Hong Cha Bu Tian
The same gray and white soul space, the same sixteen illusory thrones.
The environment here has not changed much from the last time Natsume participated in the parliament.
But the number of people who participated was much less.
In all, only 9 elders were present.
Upper seats: Datongmuxu style, Ming style, Sui style, Ji style, Ling style, and Qu style.
Bottom seats: Datong Mugen style, Japanese style (Natsume), dome style.
Alternate seats: none
Natsume glanced at the 【Elder of Otsutsuki Dome Style】 who was the next four seats.
Although this guy was in the [Yellow Spring Realm], he was attacked and killed by himself and the high priest of Yemo.
But as expected, he still left behind the resurrection hand and regained his new life.
But it can also be clearly felt.
His current soul strength is very weak, and even the projection is quite dim, as if it might collapse at any time.
It is estimated that it has just been revived not long ago, and it is very weak.
Relying on the power of the [Great Tower], he barely cast a phantom to participate in this council.
Besides.
The soul states of Ming Shi, Sui Shi, and Yun Shi are not perfect either.
It can be faintly felt that the power of the [evil god] has not been eradicated, and is still eroding their souls.
But compared to the state of the dome, it is much better.
It is estimated that the problem is not big.
of course.
None of these guys are the point.
What Natsume cares most about is of course Otsutsuki Kuroshiki who is sitting in the chief position!
Due to the ambiguity of the projection of the soul.
Natsume couldn't see Xu Shi's expression and demeanor at all.
But his intuition told him that Xu Shi seemed to be in a good mood?
...
Parliament was formally convened.
Xu Shi first looked around for a week, then said with a faint smile:
"Only nine elders were present."
"In just a few days, it seems that the loss is not small!"
"Tell me, what happened..."
The rest of the elders were silent and looked at each other.
I don't even know how to speak.
Even the irritable elder of the big-tunnel wooden style was rarely silent.
"how?"
"Is there anything else to hide now?"
"Elder Mingshi, let's start."
"Tell me how you failed?"
Xu Shi looked at Ming Shi beside him, and ordered directly.
no way.
Elder Mingshi had no choice but to bite the bullet and explain, and described the whole process of the mission failure of his group again.
Of course, this time the description is more detailed and delicate.
In the end, he also included his assessment of the [Cthulhu's] strength, as well as suggestions for follow-up countermeasures.
...
After listening, Xu Shi nodded slightly.
Not annoyed, not angry.
At any rate, he has lived for tens of thousands of years, and he is considered to be the oldest Otsutsuki [half god].
What kind of wind and waves have you never seen?
Just a failure of "God Killing Project" is far from worthy of his fuss.
On the contrary, he commented very rationally and calmly.
"Ambush using the power of [Supernova Explosion]?"
"It's really hard to match..."
"That guy is indeed very cunning!"
"It's normal for you to be caught off guard..."
"The sudden transformation between hunter and prey is often the most vulnerable and the easiest time to miss."
"The perennial victories have made you all slack!"
Ming Shi was slightly startled, and immediately admitted his mistake:
"Yes, we were careless!"
"Next time there will never be such a mistake!"
The elders Sui Shi and Yuan Shi at the side also hurriedly agreed and admitted their mistakes.
It can be seen that the majesty of the Great Elder Xu Shi is still deeply rooted in the hearts of every elder in the family.
"That [evil god], why did he know about your surprise attack in advance?"
"Elder Mingshi, do you have any guesses?"
Elder Ming Shi was slightly taken aback, resisting the thought of looking at 'Japanese style'.
and responded with:
"There is a high probability that it was the advance notice from the Moco family, right?"
"According to the information on the battlefield, the Moco clan did collude with that [evil god]."
"Not only did they wantonly collect corpses in the main battlefield, but also held a small-scale sacrificial ceremony."
"They are very suspicious..."
Xu Shi: "A sacrifice in advance? It is indeed possible to tip off the news..."
"The Mingshi elder, did you remember the location of that star field?"
"It has been recorded and the space buoy has been set up!"
"It can be precisely locked at any time."
Nodding slightly:
"Very good, well done!"
"Since the position is locked, this loss is just a small episode."
"That star field is still there, and the new [Sacred Tree Garden] can't escape..."
"Next time, Elder Mingshi must be able to kill that [evil god] and get back the [artifact], right?"
The elder Mingshi immediately received the order and promised:
"Definitely the mission!"
He knew very well that this was not only a forgiveness for their mission failure, but also a last chance for them.
If it fails next time.
Whatever the reason.
I'm afraid I won't be able to keep my position as an elder this time...
...
"It's really a pity for the three elders who died."
"Go back and try using the artifact [Inari Nesting] to see if you can reunite their souls and revive them?"
Xu Shi felt a little regretful.
In the past 10 years, he has witnessed the birth and fall of too many elders of his family...
Therefore, it is not regrettable for the death of the three elders.
But for these three guys.
Consuming a lot of resources of the Otsutsuki clan, but in the end he died so sloppily, with no effect, and disgusted.
Meaningless waste and sacrifice are the greatest malice against the entire race!
of course.
As he is old and mature, he will naturally not show his true feelings.
For the sake of the unity of the entire [Home Council], the resurrection attempt that should be given must be tried on the bright side.
As for whether it will succeed in the end?
Whether or not to really resurrect those three useless elders is another matter.
So ever.
Xu Shi glanced at the elder Gen Shi who was seated next, and directly ordered:
"If the [artifact] cannot be resurrected, then forget it."
"Get ready to start the selection of new elders..."
"Elder Root, you are in charge."
The latter immediately nodded in agreement:
"understand!"
...
Then, Xushi turned his head to look at Elder Lingshi in the sixth seat.
"Elder Ling?"
"exist!"
"Tell me, what did you guys do? How did Elder Paradox die?"
The latter's heart trembled, and he didn't dare to hide it.
Immediately, he told the elders Qiongshi and Paradox that he had secretly sneaked into the [Yellow Spring Realm] in an attempt to seize the [Devil Soldier's Remnant Body].
And basically reported truthfully, without any concealment or exaggeration.
Only in motivation.
Slightly concealing his attempt to monopolize the credit, thus abandoning the 'Japanese style'.
After listening.
The rest of the elders couldn't help being startled and shocked.
What they were horrified by was not Ling's choice.
After all, capturing the [Devil God Soldier], such a big contribution and opportunity is in front of him.
There is a high probability that they will make the same choice and take a risk.
What really horrified them was the [God-becoming Ceremony] that [Zhenruo King] was secretly holding!
This is what worries them the most.
"Chief, then [True King] he..."
Xu Shi shook his head slightly, and didn't seem to be worried about this:
"Don't worry, we'll discuss that His Majesty's issue later."
"Elder Ling, Elder Dome."
"It's you, do you realize your mistake?"
Diamond meal.
Without the power to compete with Natsume before, he immediately admitted his mistake and said:
"It's my fault that I failed!"
