Chapter 3087: Chapter 100: Puppets

The suspicion of the Shadow Cat caused the veterans of the North American team to collectively tense up.

Villand felt a slight acceleration of his heartbeat, and a faint blue electric light flashed across the surface of his bionic eye on the left side.

Since stepping into the fourth order, he hadn’t felt like this for a long time.

Most of the time, nervousness is a good thing for reincarnators.

On one hand, it means they are still alive, and compared to those who slack off, maintaining a nervous state makes it easier to survive; on the other hand, reincarnators in a tense state are more likely to break through the shackles of life.

But right now, he felt this uncontrollable tension was terrible.

Whew!

The red-robed witch’s long hair rose without wind, and its color gradually faded to silver white — this was her appearance when entering a battle state — Jason frowned, placing his hand on the short gun at his waist, cautiously glancing upwards.

Causing trouble in a place like this could get someone killed.

This thought flashed through his mind.

The Shadow Cat narrowed its eyes slightly — the Big Wizards from the Outer Domain are often the top existences in their regions, used to giving orders, and many value face more than the Legendary Wizards, being most intolerant of the slightest provocation. Especially those from remote star domains, who have a shallow understanding of the First University’s strength, it is even harder for them to control their temper.

The reactions of these Big Wizards before its eyes were in line with its expectations.

If they had acted unfazed after being ridiculed, it would have heightened its suspicions instead.

Nevertheless, to prevent any mishap, the Shadow Cat lightly swayed the long tail behind it, wrapping the Great Elf and the Little Fox Maid behind it, avoiding these few guys from truly acting crazy.

Just as it was deliberating whether to channel the power of the Protect Legal Formation.

The silver hair floating behind the red-robed witch’s head suddenly shot out dozens of silver strands, piercing like lightning into the group of Shuoges Mission’s White Dings.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The white strands entered their bodies, and the White Dings, who were previously panicked, suddenly had a dazed expression, then their expressions slowly became rigid, their auras tamed and unified.

"—Apologies."

The witch’s slightly hoarse voice sounded at the door: "It was our oversight, the underlings do not understand the rules... caused trouble for the school. This kind of thing will not happen again."

The Great Elf felt its hand being suddenly gripped tightly.

A voice almost screaming from Su Ya rang in its mind: "These guys are definitely Black Wizards! They just turned their subordinates into puppets without a word! What kind of people did the school invite this year!"

She tilted her head, looking at the Little Fox Girl’s pair of suddenly bristling furry ears, somehow feeling that her current excitement far exceeded her fear or other emotions.

Tsk!

The Shadow Cat’s eyes flashed with a hint of displeasure.

Casually making a move at the gate of the First University — although they were their own people, and it was just a group of Outer Domain White Dings not protected by the "Code" — but it still didn’t look good.

It slowly got up, approached the red-robed witch, slightly leaning forward, its nose nearly touching the witch’s chest.

"—Lady Lilith, right?"

It read out the name on the invitation, glanced at the ordinary people who had become puppets, its tone carrying a hint of warning: "I don’t care what you’ve done before, what hobbies or habits you have. At the First University, everyone must abide by the rules of the First University."

The witch, looking at the deep red cat eyes so close, inexplicably felt a sense of heart-pounding, as if the other party was threatening her life at any moment. If not for the main task requiring her to cross this gate, she would have avoided it as far as she could.

Villand clearly felt the terrifying energy hovering in the air above the square and the attention of the other fourth-orders being attracted by this little commotion in front of the gate.

He made a swift decision, pulling Lilith behind him.

"—Newcomers that we are, it is our rudeness, please forgive us. We will certainly abide by the school’s rules."

Having roamed various task worlds for many years, reincarnators cared little about face, if kneeling and kowtowing could complete the main mission, he dared to bet, every reincarnator’s forehead would be flat and shiny from bowing.

The Shadow Cat gave these guys a deep look, snorted, and slowly turned back to its original lying place.

Behind the desk, the young wizard wearing a five-colored robe and other veterans of the North American team finally breathed a small sigh of relief. The sight of the Big Wizards confronting each other just now had frightened them enough.

The small disturbance at the First Gate quietly subsided.

Above the First Square.

The thoughts of several Big Wizards were still colliding with each other.

"—The Divination Group has sent back a reply, nothing more abnormal has been found with the Shuoges Mission... the risk value is within permissible limits. It can be slightly monitored."

Every year, when the First University holds its school hunt event, it inevitably attracts attention from various quarters. If the school only allowed guests with an absolutely spotless identity to witness the event, the screening work alone would exhaust the Divination Group. So, generally, the Divination Group would determine a risk value for all guests, monitoring them to different degrees according to the risk level.

"—At most just three Big Wizards, what is there to pay attention to!"

"—Having the Great Black Cat guarding at the First Gate was actually a bit misguided... Cats have a lazy nature, and with that bad temper, they are not suited for receiving guests."

"—Careful with your words! I heard that cat is from a certain department, quite has some background... During the Black Prison battle a few years ago, it directly killed Seberk... Remember Seberk? The Druid High Priest!"

Although Big Wizards are not an unusual status at the school, each has a name, and the entire alliance has only a limited number. So, upon hearing that the Black Cat had such an impressive feat, the Big Wizard who just now had a slight word on some cat immediately fell silent.

The thoughts of the school’s Big Wizards collided in the void.

In the mind of the North American team’s veterans, the stern warning of their captain Villand echoed.

"—I know, many in past task worlds are accustomed to solving problems with violence, thinking this method is simple, quick, and efficient. But the tasks in this world cannot be completed with violence. It can be said that force might even have the opposite effect many times.

Understanding the main god’s intention, finding the key targets, is of utmost importance.

Our only task is ’observing’ — remember, anyone, without permission, is not allowed to contact ’special space tasks’, even if something like ’Haired Dragon’ or ’Edge Type 1’ is right under your nose, you must pretend not to see it — before completing the main task ’observing’, absolutely, absolutely, do not touch other tasks!

You know my style in handling matters."

The veterans who were swept by his indifferent gaze all lowered their heads.

Lying at the door, the Shadow Cat supported its chin with a paw, watching the scene thoughtfully. It always felt a very familiar feeling, yet also felt its guess was too absurd.
