Chapter 142: Chapter 142 Lin Xue’s Trouble
Although it was spoken lightly, the repeated emergence of Abyss Power still affected our mood, especially since this time Abyss Power had actually appeared in the world of Azeroth, which made people even more uneasy. According to Sandora’s analysis, the world of Azeroth and the universe we are in are adjacent worlds within the same plane. Moreover, based on the current completeness of Earth’s projection data about the world of Azeroth and the appearance of the Dalaran County Ghost House, Sandora even suspects that the world of Azeroth has already had some degree of physical intersection with our universe. This is a quite dangerous signal, meaning that once the Abyss Power hidden in the world of Azeroth finds this intersection point, they can enter our universe without any hindrance—as far as the civilizations in this universe are currently considered, according to Sandora, they simply are not capable of resisting the Abyss for long.
If the Xyrin Empire hadn’t collapsed, it would have been a different story; after all, this universe was once the largest colony of the Xyrin Empire, and the Empire’s influence here was extraordinary. But now, more and more evidence suggests that the Abyss has found a way to corrupt the ordinary Xyrin Apostles, which heralds a significant reversal of the situation—we may have to face attacks from more and more Xyrin Apostles who have gone mad.
This foreboding made our dinner quite heart-sinking, even Sandora was affected and could only eat four large bowls of rice before stopping…
Should I complain?
“We must make a trip to Azeroth.”
After dinner, Sandora stated decisively.
“I just shared some of Earth’s projection information about the world of Azeroth with Bubbles and discovered a very important clue: Demon Power, tempted and corrupted by the Fear Demon King, the Titan Giant Sargeras, as well as the Areda People Akmonde and Kil’Jaeden, all share something in common. After accepting a kind of ‘Shadow’ or ‘Demon’ energy, they became more powerful and mad, and their bodies mutated. The effects caused by Abyss Power are too similar, and what’s more important, in a world supposed to be ruled by mystic and unknown forces like Azeroth, the appearance of technology like Magic Energy Mecha—clearly the product of cutting-edge artificial intelligence—raises suspicions. Considering the distortions that can occur during interworld intervention, I’m beginning to wonder if the so-called Burning Legion… is actually the Xyrin Army corrupted by the Abyss… or at least, there must be some degree of connection between them!”
“I feel like things are evolving in an unbelievable direction…”
Regarding some of Sandora’s overly sensitive deductions, that’s the only evaluation I could make, but although these deductions are a bit too ethereal, I couldn’t help feeling a little agreement.
“Anwina, you are a native of Azeroth, you should be able to provide us with some reference, right?”
At that moment, I suddenly remembered that there was a most authoritative person present, so I began to call for Anwina, who was hiding God knows where.
Then I saw a nearby TV suddenly turn on by itself, and a maid version of Zhenzi with flaxen hair crawled out from inside…
“Ah… Master Chen Jun, I’m stuck…”
I turned my face expressionlessly and said to Sandora, “Let’s discuss tomorrow’s breakfast instead…”
“Great, great, I like that idea~~~”
In the end, Anwina wasn’t any help.
Even before her death, Anwina was just an ordinary peasant girl. To her, the whole world was just two blocks in Dalaran County. Even the countryside mages were nearly legendary figures to her. After the Undead Catastrophe invaded, she turned into a ghost in a daze. We might as well discuss tomorrow’s breakfast than rely on her for information about the Burning Legion…
I also want to add that, although we said we needed to go to Azeroth, it wasn’t something we could just do. We still needed to arrange things properly. The Burning Legion was not a disorganized mob without discipline. If we didn’t gather a proper regular army, we might really end up in tragedy.
Dingdang will be leaving early tomorrow morning to go to the Divine Realm. She needs to report her findings to the higher-ups, as the Divine Realm has so far not received any news regarding the Divine Race Army being attacked by the Xyrin Army. She has to verify whether any Divine Race expeditionary forces have recently lost contact with the Divine Realm—and here “recently” refers to a time span from seven thousand years ago to the present…
Sandora needs to integrate her Guards. Although they are few in number, each one is a super elite who has survived the baptism of fifty thousand years of warfare. If we’re really going to clash with the Burning Legion, Sandora’s Elite Commanders will be our ace in the hole. Likewise, Pandora will contact Sicaro and his group, who have recently moved nearby to start a “business,” to select the most suitable commanders for an interworld expedition.
Speaking of Pandora, who is currently mobilizing her troops, there’s one thing worth mentioning. Why is there such a big gap between lolis, Pandora and the mother-daughter duo Bubbles and Little Baobao…
With my head down and speechless, I watched Bubbles and Little Baobao compete to climb all over me, feeling the infinite desolation of a father’s life.
Everything was progressing tensely but in an orderly manner. However, the next morning, a phone call forced us to halt our current tasks.
The call came from Lin Xue.
This was rare. I mean, it’s rare that Lin Xue chose to call after eight in the morning rather than at one-thirty at night. It’s not that I enjoyed that crazy girl’s pranks, just that I was not accustomed to her not being mischievous—that’s how ingrained Lin Xue’s image has become in my mind…
“Chen Jun, it’s an emergency, send a large army to save me immediately!” As soon as I answered the call, Lin Xue’s exaggerated cry came through.
I immediately cooperated in the most convincing way, pretending to order over the phone, “Pandora, assemble the rapid response troops, take control of all surrounding city transportation networks promptly, activate all the dormant Xyrin Armored Forces, destroy all nearby armed targets within twenty-four hours, space strike troops take off, have Sicaro on standby, ready to counter any enemy backlash!”
“Stop, stop, stop! I give up, no joke, I’m really in trouble this time!”
“Those with the authority to summon will do so, and those who don’t step down from court—also, help us request a four-year break, starting from tomorrow we’re skipping class.”
“Cut it out! Hurry up and gather at the school entrance, this is really a big headache, damn it, and you have to take responsibility for me this time!”
“My responsibility?” I was immediately shocked, and then beside me, Sandora and Qianqian’s ears perked up, focusing intently on the phone in my hand, and Pandora also paused her daily routine of staring-down contests with Little Baobao, her grey eyes unblinkingly fixed on me.
“Don’t ask, just hurry over, I’ll explain when you get here!”
Hanging up the phone, I was totally confused.
Little Baobao was typically confused.
Alaya, just back from the stratosphere, was also typically confused.
Pandora continued to stare at me intently.
My sister darkly smiled as she drew circles.
Qianqian and Sandora each carried a portable missile…
Hey, hey, hey, I said, isn’t this a bit too exaggerated?
“I heard it, you have to take responsibility for her, aha?” The wooden flooring beneath Qianqian’s feet kept repeating the process of decay and restoration, making it clear she was entering a dark state.
“The person I love most… is taking responsibility for another woman…” Behind Sandora, a tangible black fog of shadow overflowed like a disaster.
“Hey, hey, hey, I said, do you believe that lunatic Lin Xue’s words? You’ve been following me all along, and Lin Xue and I have nothing going on! You can’t be serious, right?”
“Serious?” Qianqian and Sandora looked at each other and forced a smile, then simultaneously put away the lethal weapons in their hands, their faces filled with sad despair. “If this is what you wish… we will leave right now…”
“Stop!” I quickly intercepted the two girls who were on the verge of losing control of their emotions. It’s said that a woman in love has infinitely low IQ and boundless imagination, and that couldn’t be more true now; the way Qianqian and Sandora were acting was seriously giving me a headache. At the same time, Lin Xue, who caused this chaos so early in the morning, was also being cursed by me as I drew endless circles, “Didn’t you hear Lin Xue asking us all to meet at the school entrance? If I really had that kind of relationship with her, do you think she would call you to help solve the problem?”
“That makes sense…” Sandora and Qianqian suddenly came to a realization and clapped each other’s hands.
…Why do I feel like I’m seeing a strange smile in their eyes?
“That’s why I say Ah Jun is a blockhead…” Sandora said to Qianqian, spreading her hands, “All of us have telepathy, and he actually believes we wouldn’t trust him.”
…So it’s me whose IQ is dropping infinitely and imagination is soaring without limit?
Qianqian also reverted to her usual happy smile, hugged my arm, and said, “Sandora and I just suddenly wanted to see how much you would worry about the two of us, and I didn’t expect you to overreact… Hehe, but I’m really happy now! Here’s a reward!” Saying that, Qianqian quickly leaned in, and before I could react, a kiss was already pressed onto my face, “But seriously, you are so silly, you could’ve known through telepathy whether we were really angry or not, and we can feel your heart too, yet you still got fooled…”
Sandora also leaned in, snuggled her face against my chest, and then spoke with laughter, “Don’t be mad, we were just joking…”
“I’m not angry… really…”
Right now, I feel a kind of relief as if I’ve escaped disaster. As for being angry—I suspect there are three things that are the hardest in the world: the first is to duel the Father God, the second is to rule the Void, and the third is to get mad at the two girls in my arms.
All three are nonsense odds of zero.
Although due to the life-saving telepathy, Qianqian and Sandora didn’t really have a misunderstanding. However, I became curious about Lin Xue’s urgent call for help, because her tone on the phone didn’t seem like joking, which means she really ran into trouble, and—that trouble was caused by me?
Now, I’m really a bit curious.
What do you think?
