SIATOWITF Chapter 87
by VolareChapter 87: Memories in the Guild – Now Go Smash the System Office and Main Control…
“Your soul dissipated in an A-grade dungeon, but no one knows what happened in that dungeon, except for you.”
Yun Chuan continued to float around in the air, looking very busy.
“Even S-grade bosses can’t enter ongoing dungeons above C-grade. But you died in an A-grade dungeon, and Bobos violated the five major regulations, and that group of troublemakers crashed the dungeon monitoring system. I suppressed this matter for him, but by the time of the review, all the monitoring data was lost.”
“All lost…”
“Maybe there’s a little left,” Yun Chuan shrugged, “but we can’t dig too deep.”
“Because while they were messing with the system, they smashed the dungeon, and each boss got a disciplinary action of one hundred points.”
Disciplinary action… Ji Mo An had some impression, vaguely remembering that once after he finished a dungeon, Xuan Bai quietly came to pick him up ‘after work’ and grumbled that he had been caught sneaking out and had one point deducted, and complained all the way.
“That’s a lot,” Ji Mo An felt a little sorry. Two points could make the snake complain all the way, let alone a hundred…
“It’s okay, he already has over a thousand points,” Yun Chuan flipped upside down in the air, his long silver hair fluttering.
“Over a thousand…” Could the snake be that law-abiding? Ji Mo An was a little doubtful.
“Negative.”
“…” That made sense.
“Second in the S-grade rankings,” Yun Chuan made a big circle with his hand.
“Second to last?”
“Positive.”
“…” Ji Mo An was silent again. Weren’t all the bosses supposed to be breaking the rules?
He suddenly became a little curious about how many demerits the one called the leader had accumulated, since most of what the snake said about him had something to do with ‘suppressing incidents.’
“I’m not in the rankings,” Yun Chuan seemed to know what he was thinking, “the staff who enter the data are my direct subordinates.”
“…” Got it…
“So…” Ji Mo An rubbed his throbbing temples, “After my soul dissipated, Xuan Bai did a lot of things against the rules, and the other S-grades helped him more or less. In the end, all the violations were suppressed by you.”
“That’s right,” Yun Chuan flew a circle around Ji Mo An’s head. “If we reviewed it from the monitoring system, we would have to follow the procedures from the department according to the rules, and everything they did would be exposed. According to the rules… except for one child who doesn’t have a dungeon yet and one good boy among the S-grades, the rest would have to be expelled from Xingchen. Besides, at that time, everyone thought you died accidentally in the dungeon, and no one thought about a conspiracy.”
“So think carefully. If your death is really related to Losde, then we’ll have to let him die in a different way.”
“I have some very vague memories…” Ji Mo An looked up at Yun Chuan flying around his head, seeming very busy.
“Are you looking for something?” he couldn’t help asking.
“No.” As he spoke, Yun Chuan flipped a few more times in the air. “I’m dodging the world consciousness’s attacks.”
He quickly darted in front of Ji Mo An and hovered in the air.
More than ten seconds passed, and suddenly a crack appeared on his pale golden face.
Then the cracks grew more and more, spreading wildly across his body.
In less than half a minute, the little man snapped into pieces, and the severed limbs turned into golden starlight as they fell, only to reassemble into a human shape less than ten centimeters from the floor.
“That’s how it is…” Yun Chuan flew back up and continued to fly around.
“How… how does the world consciousness attack you?” Ji Mo An suddenly felt a little strange. At the moment Yun Chuan shattered, he felt the power in his body jump.
Not because it was attacked, but more like some kind of resonance.
“Maybe it’s space compression, like being crushed, my body feels very heavy. I don’t come here often, so I’m not very clear.”
“Can you come down for a moment?” A vague memory suddenly surfaced in Ji Mo An’s mind, and several people seemed to be shouting loudly.
Gravity… experiment…
Go home…
But that memory was fleeting and impossible to grasp.
The little figure swooshed down and sat cross-legged in Ji Mo An’s outstretched palm.
“I’m about to shatter,” his voice became slurred as cracks appeared on his face.
“Don’t move,” Ji Mo An held his breath and placed his other hand on top of Yun Chuan’s head.
He carefully mobilized his power, and that strange feeling began to appear again.
It seemed that some voice was guiding him, allowing the energy to cover Yun Chuan’s body at a very tricky angle.
So tired… Fatigue swept over him, which was not how he was used to mobilizing his power. It was like squeezing into a narrow crack and then trying to expand outwards.
“Don’t stop!” Yun Chuan suddenly knelt up and hugged his thumb, and fine golden threads flew out, gracefully entangling Ji Mo An’s fingers.
As warm energy poured in, the feeling of fatigue was swept away.
At the same time, the cracks on Yun Chuan’s face slowly healed, and his body, which was about to fall apart, was as good as new.
“How did you do that?” The little figure showed a surprised expression for the first time.
“I don’t know…” Ji Mo An was also very surprised, “It seems… I just did it naturally… hiss…”
A heart-wrenching pain flashed by, causing his eyes to turn red instantly.
More vague memories flashed…
Someone was arguing, arguing with him.
Experiment… what experiment?
He wouldn’t help them?
Why…
In the last memory, Ji Mo An saw a knife, stabbing straight at him.
“In the dungeon where I died,” he suddenly raised his head and grabbed Yun Chuan, who was still hugging his thumb.
“I was attacked by players, no… they couldn’t beat me… they said experiment, I wouldn’t help them…”
“I can’t remember what experiment it was, those memories… I can’t see clearly…”
“Don’t think about it anymore,” Yun Chuan swooshed out of his fist and flew into the air, pressing his little palm against his brow.
A surge of power instantly suppressed all the chaotic memories.
He waved his hand again, and the staggering bosses on the side completely closed their eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
A small light screen popped open in the air, and Yun Chuan clung to the screen and shouted inside.
“Mona, go to the monitoring system and find the last save file of dungeon number A637, now, don’t report it, I’ll give you the highest authority, remember to shield Father God’s vision.”
“Received,” a female voice immediately replied from the other side.
“Isn’t the monitoring system…” Ji Mo An was stunned. If everything was dug out, wouldn’t everyone be punished?
“It’s okay,” Yun Chuan quickly typed out lines of strangely shaped characters on the screen, “I’ll have my brothers smash the system office and main control room now, they won’t be able to take care of the monitoring system.”
Wait a minute, smash what?
Each of those words could be understood on its own, but when put together, they didn’t make any sense.
Ji Mo An shuddered silently. This wasn’t a patriarch, this was clearly a troublemaker.
“At the current speed, it will take three hours to reach the designated location. Go to sleep. I think you can find what we want in your dream.”
Golden threads instantly wrapped around Ji Mo An, and energy surged like waves, seemingly pushing him into the deep sea.
But it was warm and comfortable.
“Don’t tell any humans or bosses about this, not even Bobos.”
“If there is no expulsion from the world consciousness, many bosses will want to go to Earth, which will put you and Earth in danger.”
“Don’t tell anyone, don’t accept any temptation…”
“Don’t trust any boss…”
As that ethereal voice gradually faded away, Ji Mo An finally closed his eyes and fell into the deeper golden ocean, falling into the sea of his memories.
——
“Hey, Guild Leader.”
A heavy pat on the shoulder.
Ji Mo An turned around and saw a faceless face.
The man’s outline was very strong. Judging from the large brown beard and the strong arms covered with hair, he should be a foreigner.
“Still playing with snakes? This little thing is quite intelligent.”
Playing with snakes?
Ji Mo An looked down and saw the familiar chopstick snake tightly clinging to his hand, hissing at the foreigner.
Bosses were not allowed to enter the player hall, but the snake would always sneak over.
One piece of common knowledge after another refreshed.
“Eder, don’t touch him,” Ji Mo An blinked and said naturally.
“Okay, okay, I know, our young master is precious,” the foreigner’s face suddenly became clear. He had green eyes and a hooked nose, and the lower half of his face was hidden in a thick beard.
Um… Guild Leader.
Ji Mo An frowned slightly. He remembered that it was the guild he had established.
Since taming the snake, his life had become smoother. His powerful abilities naturally gave him a group of followers, and the heir who had received elite education since childhood easily established his own guild.
“Mr. Demond is already in the reception room, Guild Leader,” Eder scratched his head.
“I’ll go there now,” Ji Mo An took the chopstick snake from his wrist and threw it accurately into the laundry basket of the open closet.
“Is the new hand still getting used to it?” He smiled and took a brand new coat from the closet.
This place was too familiar, so familiar that even though he didn’t seem to remember anything, he could still move freely.
“Of course, it’s the same as my own, not heavy at all. Guild Leader, your abilities are really amazing,” Eder raised his other hand, and the hand inlaid on his wrist shone with a metallic luster.
He remembered again that Eder was someone he had rescued from a dungeon. After leaving the dungeon, he regarded him as his savior and was the first member of his guild, even a brother.
“Be good here, I’ll be back soon,” Ji Mo An leaned down, touched the little snake that was poking its head out from under the silk sheets and pretending to be cute, and then left his bedroom.
Very magical.
He pushed open the door, and the world outside the door was a blank.
But he stepped out, and the floor extended from under his feet.
With each step, new objects appeared in front of him, as if the world was built with him, and life existed because of him.
In that long corridor, countless precious and luxurious portraits hung on the walls, and the blurred figures in the pictures only became clear after Ji Mo An passed by.
This was indeed his style… Ji Mo An looked at the beautiful gems floating in the air and ran his fingers over the fine jewelry tassels, listening to the pleasant collision sound.
People walked past him, but they all stopped two meters in front of him and nodded slightly in greeting.
Foreigners, all foreigners.
But occasionally there were a few oriental faces mixed in.
The snake once told him that he died in North America and was assigned to the European and American Zone Three.
Not only were most of the players foreigners, but even the bosses were foreign-looking.
For example, Ouroboros with deep features, and Sakranus, the six-winged angel with blond hair and blue eyes.
This was a big deal. Mr. Demond had countless props in his hands. Although those props were not helpful to him, they could be used by his members.
If the deal was successful, the guild’s influence would reach a new level.
“An, you really made me wait,” the merchant with the mustache took off his hat and ran over enthusiastically to hug his shoulder as he pushed open the luxurious door.
“I went to change my clothes. Of course, receiving you should be more formal,” Ji Mo An smiled and dodged the merchant’s contact without leaving a trace.
“You Easterners really know how to talk and are full of wisdom,” the merchant felt the resistance emanating from Ji Mo An and shook his head regretfully.
“Your ability really has a strong sense of presence, I really want to give you a big hug.”
“How many lumps of sugar?” Ji Mo An picked up the delicate teapot and filled the teacup.
What strong sense of presence, it was that he didn’t want to have physical contact with the other party. That snake, who grew up drinking vinegar, smelled him all day long, and he would hiss for half a day even if he shook hands with someone else.
If he was unhappy, he would make a fuss for most of the night, causing him to not be able to get up until noon the next day.
“Fill it up, you know I like the taste of sweetness,” the merchant seemed to unconsciously rub his fingers, but quickly took the teacup full of sugar cubes with enthusiasm.
“An, we are old friends. I won’t say any fancy polite words to you,” the merchant took a sip of tea and showed a satisfied expression. “Oh, God. You really know my taste, everything is just right.”
“Judging by your tone, I think there shouldn’t be any problems with our transaction,” Ji Mo An also took a sip of tea. The bitter taste slowly spread along the root of his tongue.
“Of course, of course there is no problem,” the merchant stirred the sugar cubes, and the copper spoon suddenly knocked against the inner wall of the cup, making a crisp sound.
“An,” he suddenly increased the volume, seeming to want to cover up the knocking sound.
“Listening,” Ji Mo An keenly noticed a trace of tension in the other party’s tone. He let go of his hand, and the teacup floated in the air by itself.
“An, you know. Most of my props are supplied by a partner, he is very mysterious, I have never seen his face.”
“Oh, but I trust him very much, I guarantee, he is a good person.”
The merchant pinched his beard and suddenly leaned over to Ji Mo An’s ear.
“An, have you ever thought about going home?”
“Go home?” Ji Mo An was stunned, he could feel the merchant’s beard brushing against his ear.
He didn’t know about going home, but the snake must be starting to make a fuss.
“Yes, go home. Not the player hall, but… that home, the home we came from,” the merchant rubbed his hands nervously and sat back in his seat.
“An, I chatted with my supplier a few words when I was stocking up this time, and I praised you to him. He was very interested in you and asked me to say a lot about your abilities.”
“Oh, you wouldn’t mind, would you? I didn’t say anything private about you, those things can be found out as long as your ears are good…”
“Continue,” Ji Mo An interrupted him.
“Um, he said he was organizing an experiment and very much hoped to invite you to join his team. Moreover, if you agree, he will double the number of props supplied to us in the future and reduce the price by twenty percent from the original.”
“The most important thing is…” The merchant’s fingers began to tremble, and brown tea and sugar residue fell out of the cup but floated in the air.
“He said he was looking for a way to go home and needed the assistance of powerful ability users. If you are willing to join his team, both you and I will get the first batch of qualifications to go home.”
“An, God, I’m fed up with this world. We can even take enough money and gems home and leave the threat of death forever. He is really amazing, I even suspect that he is the disguised Guild Leader at the top of the guild rankings.”
“An, that…” The merchant rubbed his hands excitedly, “He wants to meet you, can… can you give me the honor?”
