Chapter 518: Huge Impact and the Accident

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

“Hmmm, I guess my mission isn’t over yet. Despite knowing the infiltration of Talon forces in the prison coupled with the knowledge of the illegal sales of apostles, it’s still not everything.” Zhao Yao repeatedly tapped against the ‘complete’ button yet nothing happened.

“What am I supposed to do? Should I just beat them up and extract all the info from their mouths?” Zhao Yao shook his head and pondered, “However, the mission instructed me to disguise myself as a prisoner to investigate the underlying reason behind the changes. If I expose my identity now, wouldn’t my mission fail instantly?

Suddenly, a glimmer of excitement flashed across his eyes, “Oh yes, maybe I can talk to them about it.”

Meanwhile, there was already a tinge of impatientness in Ah Kong’s eyes as he barked, “Hey, what are you waiting for? If you don’t go in now ...”

“Yes, yes, yes!” Zhao Yao chirped along happily and came to the entrance to the cell. He gave the door a few pushes but it wouldn’t budge, “This is locked and I can’t get in. Can someone come over and help me?”

The wardens simply shot each other a glance and found his behavior completely weird. However, he was just another powerless ordinary man, what could he possibly do to them?

Hence, Ah Kong went forward and opened the door for him, “Go in, now.”

Zhao Yao found a spot to sit on before propping his chin on his fist. He intended to go straight to Sixth Sense. If he could analyze the situation in the prison by simply asking them, it would naturally be the most ideal solution.

“Trust me. Trust me. I am the most trustworthy person in this entire prison.”

The invisible waves started to sweep towards the wardens’ direction. Moments later, they simply laid on the floor and got all lethargic.

“D*mn it!” Zhao Yao mumbled as he quivered with indignation, “Why did this power fail again? It’s not even reliable at all!”

Unbeknownst to Zhao Yao, not all members of Talon were actually apostles. Amongst them, the teen who Ah Kong accorded immense respect to was actually an ordinary man.

The only reason why an ordinary man like him was allowed to join the rest on such a perilous mission was that God of Death had already completely controlled his consciousness. He was simply his puppet.

With these puppets, God of Death could orchestrate everything while staying put in a safe and secure position. Nothing happened without his knowledge.

The tanned teen shook his legs and lamented, “I don’t wanna work anymore, maybe we should just disband Talon altogether.”

...

At the same time, a weird change was occurring across thousands of people in the South.

All whose consciousness was controlled by God of Death had suddenly turned all indolent.

One of the housewives simply jumped on a sofa and complained, “Nah, I don’t want to do any more housework. Maybe, I should just file for divorce.”

One of the employees opened his email and started framing his resignation letter, “No matter how hard I try, I’ll never be able to afford my own house. I should just quit.”

Along the streets, rows and rows of cars simply stopped against the pavements. Their drivers reclined completely against the seat and thought, “What’s the point of all these? I just wanna be a fish in the sea.”

The countless puppets under God of Death started contacting the apostles working beneath them and said, “I’m sorry but I’m so tired from all the things which Talon has asked of me. Hence, I’ve decided to disband the organisation.”

Within a split second, the entire South had welcomed an unprecedented and abnormal change. Tens of thousands of workers suddenly went on strike which led to hundreds of reporters flocking to this juicy news. In turn, it had changed into the hottest topic amongst experts and researchers.

...

With a line etched across his forehead, Zhao Yao thought, “I don’t believe it.” Hence, he activated Sixth Sense once again.

“Trust me, trust me. I am the most dependable person in the whole world!”

Suddenly, the wardens acted as if they were possessed by a spirit as they leaped to their feet.

“Where is my phone?”

“Do you guys know what is the wifi here?”

“I want my Mobile Legends!”

Zhao Yao was baffled by this scene, “What the f*ck. I have not played the game for the past entire week. Am I really that thirsty? This power is simply sabotaging my reputation.”

...

In the South, another weird phenomenon had swept across its citizens. Those under God of Death’s control started downloading Mobile Legends and even bought in-game cash. Hence, the earning of Mobile Legends increased by millions in a single day.

A teacher who was originally lying on the floor stood up and started playing Mobile Legends on his podium.

A mayor who was in the midst of an important discussion took out his phone and downloaded Mobile Legends, “Just stop this meeting already. How about a round of Mobile Legends?”

One of the bosses of a certain gaming company whipped out his phone but did not download Mobile Legends. Instead, he contacted someone and instructed, “Hey, get me all the newest and best skins for my Mobile Legend’s account.”

After relaying their initial instruction to disband Talon, the puppets relayed the next one.

“I’ve given serious consideration about it and disbanding Talon might not be the best option. We should all just play Mobile Legends instead.”

In a matter of hours, Mobile Legends experienced an exponential increase in their earnings. Consequently, they were ridiculed by parents and educators as the new generation’s drug, prompting policymakers to effect a change.

...

Inspector Ho exclaimed, “What? Talon is about to be disbanded?”

Old Man Zhuang screamed, “What? Talon intends to turn into an independent team playing Mibole Legends?”

...

This time around, Zhao Yao stroked his chin thoughtfully and chose not to spring into action. He sat cross-legged on the floor, with his eyes observing the few addicted members.

“I have to clear myself of all evil thoughts.”

“I need to focus.”

“Get rid of all distracting thoughts.”

After meditating for close to a minute, Zhao Yao opened his eyes and sent another invisible wave sweeping towards the wardens.

“Trust me!”

Shooo!

Immediately, they placed their phones in their pockets and were completely baffled by what just happened.

“What happened?”

“Why was I so drawn to Mobile Legends just now?”

Consequently, a scowl was hanging on the teen’s face as he thought, “D*mn it, what’s happening? Why did all the puppets suddenly go out of control simultaneously? What is happening? Did someone try to attack me?”

His brain began to wrap around all possibilities in lightning speed, “The first objective was clear. He wanted me to turn into a fish and disband Talon, but what about the second one? Why did he want me to play Mobile Legends? Unless ... Is that guy a member of Moonton? Is he trying to cheat me of my money? No, this doesn’t make sense ...”

His brain was processing gazillions of information and yet he failed to recognize the anomaly before him. After all, God of Death controlled up to thousands of puppets at any one time, making it impossible to detect the tiniest details. However, he could derive the truth if given sufficient time.

Meanwhile, Zhao Yao believed that he was on the verge of success. Hence, he began screaming in the wardens’ directions, “Hey, since you’ve already captured me, can you at least tell me what’s happening?”

Initially, Ah Kong felt a strong urge to berate him. However, the feeling disappeared as quickly as it came as he remarked, “Alright, since there’s no way you’re returning to China for the rest of your life. I’ll give you the honor of knowing the truth before you die.”

A glimmer flashed across Zhao Yao’s eyes as he cheered, “Yay! That’s great! I don’t mind dying as long as I learn about the truth!”

Before Ah Kong managed to open his mouth, a gust of wind had swept across this underground room.

Zhao Yao just felt a searing pain erupting from his kidney as a familiar voice rang from behind him.

“I’m so sorry, I didn’t mean to do it.”

Zhao Yao turned around to the revolting sight of Black Panther with a cat resting on his shoulders. Somehow, he also managed to get Xiao Ming along.

“Why can’t you just let me complete my mission peacefully?” Zhao Yao was pressing against his waist as he panted, “Black Panther, from today onwards we’ll no longer be friends. Please don’t treat me as your brother. I’m begging you!”
