This villain, please exercise some restraint.

"Priestess, you have told me about Temperance's situation before. I would like to know whether this so-called demon will cause harm to Temperance..."

Looking at the silent priestess, "Mian" bluntly asked the question he was most concerned about.

From the words of the priestess, he knew that Temperance seemed to have lost some identity, but in his opinion, this was innocuous.

Even... it might not be a blessing.

After all, that so-called status neither brings substantial power to temperance nor any privileges.

Even if it is a bug and lives in the host's body, it will still get corresponding privileges because of the host's identity, although sometimes its actions will be slightly restricted due to the host's interpersonal relationships.

He witnessed the bizarre failure of Temperance and witnessed Temperance give up targeting those three guys. He was injured at the time. To be honest, when he saw Temperance giving up on his own initiative, he felt disbelief, regret and unwillingness. .

But...he couldn't ignore the relief that came over him.

He has always felt that the pressure that Temperance put on him before was too much, and that kind of pressure might have overwhelmed the weak Temperance.

If it continued, he couldn't predict whether Temperance would eventually... collapse due to another failure.

Reason told him that with his temperate character, such a thing would probably not happen.

But...his sensibility made him hope that moderation would voluntarily give up.

That was simply a task without any substantial reward, and he didn't think it was worth the trouble and effort.

As long as Temperance no longer focuses on those three guys, with its strength as the Insect King and the multiple advantages brought by its body, the Wulin Alliance - as long as it exists, will always be the strongest backing of Temperance. .

So after seeing the change in control, it changed its strategy towards the Wulin Alliance after it was no longer troubled by injuries.

If the resources, manpower and material resources of the Wulin Alliance were used to exploit the benefits before, and there was no long-term plan for the Wulin Alliance at all... then now, the Wulin Alliance and its affiliated forces are being strengthened step by step.

As a bug, it is not familiar with these things, but...as a Gu King that has devoured, evolved, and sublimated among countless Gu bugs, it has a learning ability that humans cannot imagine.

If temperance itself cannot be strengthened in a fundamental sense, then it should make long-term considerations for the martial arts alliance and temperance.

No existence is always in its infancy, even a bug will force itself to grow.

Temperance...the existence that brought it from southern Xinjiang to the Central Plains, this existence that is quite irresponsible in a sense, although it is clearly unable to give it what it wants, but...it is undeniable that what it has done Everything will unconsciously take moderation into consideration.

At this point, it is more conscious and more responsible than restraint.

As long as everything goes according to plan... In human terms, if temperance returns, the Wulin League will be the most suitable "retirement" place for him.

And it, as the leader of the alliance, "Mian", will support everything in the Wulin Alliance.

It has this confidence, and...it's worth it.

But now that Temperance is missing, it makes it a little difficult to continue all the plans designated by him as the alliance leader "Mian" after running smoothly for a short time.

This was all based on the idea that Temperance would return, and now, Temperance is gone.

He didn't even have the time to deal with the trivial matters of the various forces within the Martial Arts Alliance.

There is no moderation to be found, and all of this seems meaningless.

Thinking of this, "Mian" sighed softly and looked at the priestess in front of her who had become equally silent because of her own problems.

"...It's impossible to predict, but if it's a reversed demon, a part of his ability will definitely show up in this world in a less bright form."

"Just like me, as a priestess, because I appear in my right position, part of my abilities have become a solidifying force in this world."

"For example, the Book of Pure White adds power inquiries for hostile Tarot card forces on the original basis, such as the 'disarm' ability to prevent disputes."

"These are all positive, positive abilities."

"And from your description, the last magician who has disappeared has his abilities that are biased toward the opposite, such as the 'memory spying' that directly penetrates the heart, and the corresponding 'disguise' that he possesses by deeply playing with others."

"In a sense, if a magician wants to, with this ability, it will not be a problem to break through any existing weakness in this world."

Even if used rationally, it may affect reality.

The priestess did not say this. Judging from the birth of this world, the "world"... does not seem to want to be involved in reality.

And "Mian" has a bit too much respect for moderation. Whether it is for its identity as an NPC or for considerations of security in the real world, this kind of thing exists in this world, and the less you know about it, the better.

Because...this world has props that can directly affect players in the real world.

The "slave Gu" mentioned in "Mian" is one of them.

But it has become extinct. According to her calculations and "Mian"'s description, there is a high probability that it was the work of the successor to the power of the Hanged Man card.

She originally wanted to communicate with the Hanged Man who was also summoned from the upright position, but... strangely, she also lost her sense of this card not long ago.

"Then according to what you said, the ability of the reversed devil may be biased towards viciousness... With such power, if the 'brook' instructs him to target temperance, or he wants to target temperance... .Temperance probably doesn’t have the ability to resist.”

"And I remember you said that after Temperance loses that layer of identity, his only teleportation ability will no longer exist."

"Then this is a further weakening of him. It's hard for me to imagine that with him like this, maybe any member of the player group can easily handle him, right?"

"Strength plus wisdom can create the effect of one plus one equals two, but in this world, everything must have strength as the foundation... In the face of absolute strength, all tricks may be pale."

The more he continued to say "Mian", the deeper the wrinkles between his eyebrows became.

His analysis was very objective. Once Temperance is targeted by the so-called substitute 'Xi' mentioned by the priestess, or by demons, or by stronger players, the outcome may not be good.

But unfortunately, he lost his sense of control, and until now, he hasn't found even the slightest clue related to control.

The priestess did not refute, she knew very well that the statement of "sleep" was not an exaggeration.

The world has not given substantial punishment to moderation, but perhaps, the "punishment" of moderation by some beings has already begun.

Faced with the silence of the priestess, "Mian" sighed again. Fortunately, the Wulin Alliance has quickly got on the right track, and the power at his hand has been unlocked... Otherwise, he would have really fallen into a situation where no one can use it. situation.

It was time to move things further...although, this was something he didn't want.

"I'm afraid the Wulin Alliance's ability alone is no longer enough to deal with this matter. Maybe those players should also be mobilized..."

"I will start to activate Xin Sect and Dao Sect, two of the five existing forces in the Wulin Alliance. Maybe these two sects that can be used now can bring some help."

He spoke calmly, but the priestess' expression changed slightly when she heard this.

"But, doesn't this mean you-"

"Mian" smiled, waved his hand, and interrupted the priestess's words. His face was calm and calm, "It doesn't matter, I hope I won't regret the moderation thing more than this."

"As for me......"

"Mian" turned around, and his narrow phoenix eyes reflected the gorgeous and brilliant glow of the sky.

"Priestess, I think you and I will have to leave one day. We all have plans that are theoretically feasible, but plans can never keep up with changes - I have to catch up with changes."

"Otherwise, what's the point of waiting until what I least want to see becomes a reality, even if I have overwhelming power?"

The priestess opened her mouth, but said nothing more.

She watched the flash of red leave quickly, and for a moment, she felt a little complicated inside.

She felt that during this period, "Mian" seemed to have grown a lot and matured a lot.

As usual, she closed her eyes and tried to sense the presence of the successor to the Hanged Man's power.

After many induction failures, she no longer had much hope, but——

The next moment, the priestess suddenly opened her eyes, looking surprised.

The Hanged Man... appears! ! !

Perhaps, the answer to the hidden rule can be obtained from the Hanged Man.

Thinking this, the priestess slowly disappeared.
