Chapter 1314 - 1314 1312 Arrival

Chapter 1314: Chapter 1312: Arrival Chapter 1314: Chapter 1312: Arrival “Joint Operation”

It is a combat plan customized with London City as the “surface” and our forces as well as special constructions as the “points.”

The plan imposes no limitations or constraints on us individual Elements.

The core of it lies in the “Alliance Sharing,” which means that during the gameplay period, the corresponding forces of everyone will come together, forming a whole, making suitable adjustments according to the wartime situation and combat strategy.

Please examine the details of the treaty carefully.

At present, I have obtained the support of various Mythic Bodies; they have all Branded their own Marks on the Proposal.”

As Aslan has mentioned.

On the back of the Proposal, the Brandings of various Mythic Bodies are imprinted, including the Goat’s Hoof Mark of Sally’s aunt, Ingrid.

Meanwhile.

Aslan also puts on a very friendly expression, drapes his Right Arm across the shoulder next to him, which is the shoulder of the Second Element, “Book of Wisdom–Pope.”

“Additionally, I have discussed this matter in advance with Pope in private, and he is very supportive.”

Pope did not speak, merely nodded slightly.

Han Dong closely observed the situation, feeling certain about something, and he communicated with the Black Goat Sally via a mental message:

“It seems that Aslan has done a lot of ‘private’ groundwork in these past few months. He even won Aunt Ingrid over to his side in your absence from the Flock.

As for why Pope would support this.

It’s most likely due to the ‘Green’ point… This operation plan is clearly unfavorable for the independent and willful Green. If Green were present, he would never agree and would even use his First Element status to forcibly deny it.

I even suspect Pope might have secretly pushed for this meeting to be held in advance.”

Sally’s voice came through:

“Pope wouldn’t take the initiative to help.

However, you’re right… Aslan made use of the ‘Green’ point to align Pope’s interests with his own, successfully pushing the joint plan.

‘Joint Operation’ is extremely unfavorable for Green.

During the play period in London City, the autonomous Green will become the smallest force… It may even shake the foundation of the ‘First Element.’

The most annoying thing about Aslan is how he can grasp everyone’s ‘interests.’

From the current situation, this ‘Joint Operation’ is already implied consent.

Nicholas, what’s your take on this?”

“It doesn’t matter to me, just a union of forces.

As long as Miss Sally you are not affected, it won’t influence my strategies… What I need are ‘individuals.’

Aslan, unable to woo ‘individuals’, has been forced to rally [groups] in this manner.

When the game starts, Miss Sally, you can act with me.

As for the ‘Flock,’ it doesn’t matter whether we use it or not.”

“Alright…”

“By the way, what does Facilitator mean?”

“Facilitator is somewhat like the ‘group leader’ among the Ten Elements, though this position doesn’t hold much actual power. It is responsible for gathering everyone during key moments, organizing meetings like the current one through connections with higher-ups.

Aslan was chosen as the Facilitator in the last Element Game mainly because he maintains a Neutral position with no obvious conflicts of interest with any Elements.”

Just then.

The mental communication channel established between Han Dong and Sally was suddenly intruded by a third party’s voice.

“Eh? What are you two discussing? Sally… Are you secretly talking with Nicholas again?”

Upon hearing this, Sally’s face turned pale with fright; she immediately severed the mental connection with Han Dong and sat motionless in her seat… Both her Black Goat legs seemed to be in a startled fluffed state.

Following the order of the Elements, Aslan seated beside Sally also noticed the abnormality, squinting his eyes and asked ‘friendlily’:

“Miss Sally, are you dissatisfied with the ‘Joint Operation?’ If so, please raise your concerns now, since Ms. Ingrid has already agreed.”

Sally, however, uttered something completely out of context, “It’s coming…”

“What’s coming?”

At that moment.

A wave of Madness swept over the meeting area.

The Elements all turned their heads in Han Dong’s direction… but this time, Sally didn’t look over, just blankly stared at the tabletop.

Aslan initially thought Han Dong was deliberately causing trouble at the meeting.

But upon observing Han Dong’s condition, he immediately dismissed that assumption… Aslan’s unique nature allowed him to sense the inner state of his target.

Han Dong was in terrible shape, and it didn’t look feigned.

One of Han Dong’s hands was braced on the desktop while the other clutched his abdomen.

While gasping for breath, veins bulged all over his body; grey tentacles with mottling moved chaotically beneath his skin, even giving off the impression that they were about to burrow out of his body.

Ugh…

Suddenly.

In front of everyone, Han Dong vomited a variety of bizarre internal organs and tentacles onto the ground.

It always felt as though something was about to emerge from within Han Dong, a ‘something’ that could incite fear in everyone present.

Sssss~

Bursts of steam, symbolic of chaos, continuously spilled out from Han Dong’s body.

“No way…”

Aslan had a very bad feeling.

Pope and Weed, who were seated close to Han Dong, had already moved away at the first chance, their bodies accumulating a certain energy, ready to respond to a sudden outburst of danger.

At such a time, someone actually moved closer on their own.

Root of Evil – Kite

Utterly fearless of Han Dong’s bizarre state and the increasingly dense aura of madness, Kite voluntarily moved closer, attempting to offer some assistance.

“Nicholas, are you alright…”

While asking, Kite even tried to place his right hand onto Han Dong, using a power involving the [Root] to stabilize Han Dong’s dreadful condition.

“Kite! Come back!”

Pope sensed an advance warning of danger, circled his fingers in the air, attempting to teleport Kite away directly.

Unfortunately, before the void could materialize.

Snap!

A hand firmly clasped Kite’s wrist, preventing his attempt to touch Han Dong.

This hand did not come from Han Dong.

Rather, it was a withered arm that had grown out of Han Dong’s ear,

Covered in holes that made the scalp tingle,

Each finger-sized hole connected to the Endless Abyss.

More than just the arm was continuing to push its way out.

Swish~ A head with disheveled black hair and coated in mucus also squeezed out, giving off the sensation of being newly bathed.

Lips wriggled

A series of “Blasphemous Sounds” that could easily drive people into madness were harmoniously emitted through a voice box filled with tentacles and a tongue riddled with holes:

“Kite, what are you doing? Why are you touching Nicholas’s body?”

Kite showed no fear, instead, he seemed somewhat excited:

“Oh… So it’s Big Brother Green, are you here to kill me?”

To his surprise, Green wasn’t angry at all; another mucus-covered arm reached out from between the earholes, lightly touching Kite’s head:

“No, why would I kill you… Besides, killing you would require a lot of energy and there’s nothing to gain, that wouldn’t be worth it at all.

Go back and sit down, there’s nothing wrong here.”

“Oh…”

Kite returned to his spot, looking disappointed.

The youth covered in mucus used Han Dong’s ear as a [hole] to slowly crawl out.

Click click click~

Upon landing, he flexed every joint in his body to restore flexibility, seemingly trapped inside Han Dong for a long time.

“Nicholas, have you opened the gate? No wonder the structure inside your body is completely different from before, I almost couldn’t find the exit and nearly suffocated to death.

By the way, are you all in a meeting? Did I arrive just in time, haha!”

Green was not at all bothered by Han Dong sitting in his place.

He didn’t even intend to send Han Dong away,

Instead, he shifted his body to squeeze into the same chair alongside Han Dong.
