Chapter 775: Dancing with the Devil

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Black Robe went out at once from the light gate. His intuition told him that this would be important to his master, as it was a chance they could take advantage of and probably reap some benefits out of.

The Land of Sanguinity had a strange spatial feature; it enabled the passing to all heavens and millions of realms. If it was placed on Earth in the universe, it could access to the places that the master of the Heavenly Axiom had stepped foot on.

Vigilante A happened to be in Lunaette before.

Therefore, Demon Lord Zhi Nan would be on the other side of the light gate.

Black Robe passed through the light gate, then turned around and chanted some mystical words to conceal the gate.

After that, he flew towards a certain direction and arrived at Demon Lord’s wooden cabin in a while.

He gently knocked on the door, and the door was opened.

He looked inside, and he saw a sphere that was emitting shiny blinding light circling around the cabin. He knew it was the cosmic map at one glance.

Looking at it, a great sense of superiority had arisen since he was in the know of the secret master plan.

Vigilante A was ruthlessly brave and could put up a good fight. The holy immortals and deities from the Upper Realm were all narrow-minded and calculating. What they did not know was his master’s great visions and big plans had already exceeded their expectations.

However, he could never utter a word about it. Otherwise, there would be plenty of them who would want a piece of the pie.

Once the plans were made known to the entire world, they would be paralyzed with fear.

Black Robe was too focused on his thoughts, and for a moment he forgot to speak.

“Oh, you came back suddenly, what’s the matter?” Zhi Nan was busy adjusting the few glowing spheres.

“Forgive me, master.” Black Robe immediately apologized. “Here’s the thing. Vigilante A wanted to build a checkpoint in the Space Passage to prevent the entry of certain beings from the Upper Realm. He would like to borrow our robotic spiders to help him with it. I’m guessing he’s expecting free labor.”

“Hehe, the day I’ve been waiting for is finally here. All my effort and patience in putting up with him were not wasted. It’s a good thing that we stopped scheming against him, and now he turned out to be the perfect cover for our big plans,” Zhi Nan smiled and was extremely delighted.

“My master, all the deities and buddhas could never compare to your wisdom and ability to foresee the future,” Black Robe was buttering his master up.

“You’re right this time. All the deities and Buddhas are all inferior and corrupted, they should’ve suffered sooner. However, the saints were clever enough to prepare a backup plan, and managed to escape from the Upper Realm Nirvana. The appearance of Vigilante A was definitely out of their expectations, I’m really hoping for more surprises from him,” Zhi Nan said, and a black sphere suddenly appeared in his hand.

“You should give this Mixed-Vitality Demonic Sphere to him, and tell him that it’s for additional protection at the checkpoint. It can easily get into the heads of the deities and Buddhas and make them lose their way amidst the turbulence in the void. Apart from the saints, it’s impossible for any other beings to escape.”

“Master, are you really giving such a valuable item to him so easily? Wouldn’t he have doubts?” Black Robe was a little worried.

He had no care for such an item. After all, it was used to control the deities and buddhas coming down to Earth. To him, it was worth it.

His bigger concern was that Vigilante A would refuse to accept the gift, or be too suspicious to even use it.

“Don’t worry. Although he’s extremely greedy when it comes to money, he always earns them righteously. Just tell him to treat it as our investment in his battle against the deities and Buddhas from the Upper Realm, he would never be doubtful,” Zhi Nan said with conviction.

Black Robe quickly received the sphere without any further questions.

“Master, I’ll make a move now then.”

“Alright, go ahead. Remember to close the door properly,” Zhi Nan said flatly.

Black Robe left hastily. He knew which door his master was referring to. He quickly flew to the light gate in Lunaette. He looked around, there was nothing unusual. Then he cast a deferred concealment spell, and the light gate was opened. After he walked through it, the spell became effective, and the light gate that connected to the Land of Sanguinity was hidden again. Although Vigilante A knew about this gate, Black Robe could not risk exposing it to others. After all, there were still some other beings, like the ones from Azure Mountain that were staying in Lunaette.

…

Back in the Land of Sanguinity, Black Robe passed on his master’s words and then he tossed the black sphere to Vigilante A.

“This is a gift from my master. He was never fond of the deities and Buddhas anyway, they neglected their duties and made no contributions at all. The only thing they’re good at is being calculating and plotting against each other. Nothing has changed a bit in hundreds of millions of years, besides their titles and positions. They could only serve one purpose on Earth, that is to feed the system,” Black Robe said flatly.

“You’re still of use after all. No wonder there’s a place for Path of Demons in the Heavenly Axiom. Alright then, I’ll accept this gracefully,” Vigilante A nodded.

“Well then, I’ll instill architectural knowledge in the robotic spiders right away. They should be fully developed after three days, and you can come to collect them by then. It’s not a secret that you have a portable space,” Black Robe said with a hint of admiration and jealousy.

All the good things kept going to Vigilante A to the point that they were starting to pile up on his side. A part of humanity was about exploiting the poor to favor the rich after all. It was unfair that Black Robe was underprivileged and could never make luck work in his favor.

“That’s great. I’ll wait for three days,” Vigilante A disappeared after finishing his sentence.

Black Robe grumbled and walked into the blue-painted factory. The robotic spiders were being assembled along the way on the production line.

An electronic voice rang.

“Red Queen at your service, Master Black Robe.”

“Red Queen, activate memory installation mode, installation content – architectural related.”

“Activating memory installation mode. Please wait for a moment.

“Recalling the robotic spiders. Starting the memory installation process.”

The robotic spiders that were waiting to be exported were summoned back to the factory in a moment.

“Well, that’s what I call the greatest production efficiency.” Black Robe was satisfied.

However powerful Vigilante A might be, he could never learn a technical skill like that.

…

After Vigilante left, the System went back to the underground karst cave in Southeast China, and started to reinspect the place meticulously.

Three more days until they get the extra help they needed, surely the System would not waste a minute. He was definitely nothing like someone else who planned to take a break during the three days.

“Richie, you’re right. The devil promised without any hesitation, it even gave us something valuable. I can’t believe a first-generation chivalrous system like me had to stoop so low and dance with the devil,” the System was distressed.

“Did your chivalrous virtue decrease then?” Fang Ning was concerned.

“No, it increased instead. I can’t seem to find an explanation for that.”

“I think that’s how they address someone who’s willing to sacrifice for the country and the civilians – the greatest chivalry. Someone who’s willing to really dance with the devil, and not just put up a show. After all, the real doctrines of a king are uniting all the possible forces and forming alliances. To be invincible, one has to take advantage of the main contradiction,” Fang Ning said plausibly.

“Is that so?” the System was puzzled. “The only thing I know that’s invincible is your ability to argue, I’ve never seen you admitting your defeat.”

“Cut the crap. Go on with your work. I’ve got no time and energy to educate an idiotic system,” Fang Ning turned a deaf ear to the System.
