Chapter 917 - 754: Opening the Box and Turning Myself In
Chun quickly finished his meal and decided to return to his Dream Forest Divine Domain for a look.
Nearly a day had passed, and the revival progress of the divine domain had unexpectedly soared from 1% yesterday to 27.153%!
Great, the situation looks promising!
But the forest wasn’t peaceful; the faint sound of crows calling could be heard.
Chun was surprised. Could it be because I practiced Storm Druid, hence the appearance of crows? But I haven’t collected anything related to Crow Spirit.
Chun searched around and saw a black shadow cawing atop the branch of a sprouting charcoal tree.
Chun wanted to float up and catch it, but the shadow cawed and fled. Chun tried using Grandmaster Level Spiritual Perception to communicate, and the caws suddenly translated into a barrage of insults, "This Chun is truly an asshole..."
Holy Shit?
—System Prompt: Your Grandmaster Level Spiritual Perception has interpreted the curses from Oak City’s people.
—System Prompt: You discovered a "Cursed Crow" born of curses in the "Dream Forest" Divine Domain.
Ah!!
So that’s it, Sister Bai’s Secret Technique is at work! When there was no divine domain yesterday, the curses were transmitted through Aileen’s divine domain, but now that I have a divine domain, the curses have been directly delivered to my doorstep, forming a new species!
So this is the effect of having a divine domain or being a Dark Sage? Being cursed also builds faith!
As long as there’s faith, accept it calmly. A god who doesn’t allow curses is truly evil.
Just then, Aileen woke up: "Darling, you came back early!"
Chun laughed and said, "Yes, couldn’t help it, so I came back early."
Aileen laughed and said, "The day was very safe, played happily as pushed by the Head Maid, had a sauna in the evening, and enjoyed some health therapy before sleep..."
In that case, Chun has to carefully plan future developments. Apparently, the judge suspected to be the Emperor released me generously, surely expecting something from me, right?
Whatever I want to express, it must come with strength, but the major Hurricane spell couldn’t be publicly used! Using it with a small account would expose me. What should I use?
Chun immediately thought of the box given by the Empire’s wanted criminal Bafengte at the Bronze City dance floor. Didn’t dare open it before, fearing opening it and being unable to control ranks. Now I’m already number one globally, it holds no significance! Bafengte warned me that opening it would make me wanted by the Empire; now I’m already wanted leisurely, no worries!
So now is the perfect opportunity to open the box.
Moreover, during Oak City’s trial, the Ten Lords said Bafengte is the second-generation Pirate King. Could that be true?
Chun said, "Darling, let’s wake up and take a look at something, first dismiss the two attendants by the bed."
Aileen laughed and said, "Alright, darling."
So Chun woke up, spoke to the two attendants, but having just recovered, his speech was weak and his voice wasn’t loud, with the two sound asleep and unable to hear.
Chun wanted to move his hands but both arms and legs hadn’t recovered yet.
Ah this?
Aileen laughed and said, "Leave it to me."
—System Prompt: Your Possession Mirror God Aileen activated Radar ultrasound...
The next moment, the two attendants awoke abruptly as if shocked!
Holy Shit, the supposedly divine skill Radar that I never dared use, couldn’t imagine it so useful!
Chun then slowly spoke, "Go, out."
The two attendants did not hesitate, "Yes, sir."
Once they left, Chun could open the box and check. Although his limbs weren’t functional, it was still a game, so items in the inventory could be checked via direct commands.
—System Prompt: Warning! This is a wanted item passed on by the mysterious person in Bronze City, are you sure you want to open and examine it?
As long as it’s not opening the box that leads to an instant explosion.
Upon opening the box, a highly sophisticated Crystal box appeared!
Nesting dolls huh? Continue opening!
It’s indeed another box, but the fluctuation was blurry.
—System Prompt: Your Divine Craftsman Level Spatial Technique has discovered an unstable compressed space.
Holy Shit! Bafengte really gave me a damn bomb? He likely had an Ancient Crystal Core he used so poorly, so he simply dumped a big one on me?
Normally, a player would bet or be impulsive and have to open it.
But Chun never had a gambling habit, nor did he impulsively fiddle with items. Instead, he wanted to use this wanted item to test the judge’s sincerity. After all, a wanted criminal wouldn’t care about gifted items, would the Emperor fancy them?
Just then, there was a knock on the door: "Mr. Chun, Libnahi sends her morning greetings and serves you breakfast."
Ha, if they don’t call me 0016, I’m unaccustomed.
"Come in!"
Libnahi entered through the door: "It seems Mr. Chun’s voice has recovered somewhat."
But eating was still difficult, must use princess utensils right? But my Earth Body isn’t perverted.
Chun said, "To the bank first, then self-surrender."
Libnahi was surprised, "Self-surrender?"
Chun laughed and said, "Your service moved me, so I’m going to surrender and confess crimes not charged against me."
Can’t miss the daily 50,000 Mining Coins cap at the bank; surrender counts as a commendation for her.
Libnahi was surprised, "What about breakfast?"
"Not eating!"
"Yes, sir."
Then Libnahi sent Chun to the bank again, completed the 50,000 Mining Coins exchange operation, and Libnahi pushed Chun towards the Palace. The speed was evident, leaving no room for delay.
Chun felt playful, wanted to confirm one thing, "What about the Sage Michael in this city?"
Libnahi replied, "This is beyond my duty to question; I cannot answer."
Eh? Playing coy?
Chun suddenly wanted to test the effect of Dark Privileges. Though it might not work on other NPCs, you’re an undercover!
Chun first activated 1000 Privileges and asked again, "I surpassed his ranking in just two days; I only want to know if he’s in the city."
Libnahi’s body trembled, "I, cannot be certain, hard to answer."
Ha! Does this count as an answer? At least the tone changed, indicating it’s effective on her.
Forget it, don’t mess with your own people.
At that moment, a text message arrived on his phone.
Chun hurriedly checked; the exchange was successful, another 47,000 in the bank account!
Hahaha~~~ This feels more exhilarating than yesterday!
Feeling ecstatic again, Chun’s confidence before the judge soared once more.
Entering the Palace, the scene changed, and Chun appeared again in the big white house of yesterday’s Special Court.
This time the judge was already seated waiting, "We meet again, any insights?"
Chun said with feeling, "Yes, the person I met at the dance floor in Bronze City was the Empire’s wanted criminal Bafengte, who gave me a wanted item. I’m here to surrender."
The judge was surprised, "An item?"
Chun transferred the box from his inventory to his hand, and the judge casually reached out, the box directly flew over from Chun’s hand!
Holy Shit! Does this count as directly snatching items from players without system prompts?
Chun said, "The third box, I dare not open, suspecting it might explode."
The judge also opened the box and confirmed, "Indeed, your judgment was correct! Wanted criminals lack the ability to repair."
