Chapter 626: Chapter 626: The Apostle’s Leadership; the God of Pleasure Is Watching You

In the internet cafe at the street corner, all the lights were now turned off, leaving only a single computer screen glowing with a dim light.

Xie Antong sat there, one finger pressed against her temple, supporting that single eyeglass lens, like a mastermind pulling the strings from behind the scenes.

Since that Chess Player had already acted without any scruples, then she naturally had to become the second one.

At this very moment, she was still continuing to bamboozle them.

"I know the information of every single one of you. I won't go into more ways to prove it."

"Because this is already sufficient. We cannot waste time on such matters. 'Sin' has already made his move, it's our turn now."

"There's one thing I can explain to everyone here. This time, us gathering here in the game, being in the same place as 'Sin', is not a coincidence!"

"I repeat, none of this is a coincidence."

"This is a meticulously planned operation!"

"Next, in the name of the leader of Divine Punishment, I am taking over! Everyone, follow my instructions."

"Do not question the content of your assigned tasks. We will jointly construct a precise system to complete his execution."

"Everyone, the gods are watching us. Long live the Apostles!"

After a series of brainwashing combos, Xie Antong even came up with a bizarre slogan from who-knows-where and said it.

The rest didn't need to be said too much.

Because she couldn't be bothered to say too much either; these people weren't worthy!

Her bamboozling stopped at just the right point. It just so happened that the Apostles side also seemed to think Divine Punishment was related to the Apostles, so wasn't it perfect not to correct that?

Of course, this had to be taken full advantage of!

However, she just didn't know what Lu Ce over there would think...

Whatever, she'd deal with that later. In any case, this time she also wanted to formally challenge him.

As for what level of control she could achieve over these Apostles... heh, it would depend on how these people judged her words.

She believed that these self-proclaimed clever opportunists, faced with her ambiguous response, were actually more likely to believe it!

And based on information judgment through Heaven's Net, her current judgment of people was basically equivalent to the final reality.

In fact, after intense internal struggle, although the Apostles found it absurd, they actually accepted it one by one!

They already had a preconceived misjudgment about Divine Punishment. At a time like this, having a backbone figure jump out to lead was also a good thing.

Most people in this world hate being led, but in reality, handing over the power of "independent choice" to someone else actually makes them feel more at ease.

All of this might also be thanks to Lust. His flamboyance and the chaos he brought put immense pressure on the Apostles. With emotions surging, they couldn't think too much anymore.

Very quickly, they actually accepted such an explanation. In just a few words, Xie Antong actually managed to take this batch of Apostles under her command as her subordinates.

—Their gathering here was not a coincidence! This was an execution targeting "Sin"!

After accepting this setting, they immediately felt their mental state improve slightly. Looking at that arrogant guy in the sky, they even, quite outrageously, felt a sense of superiority.

Suddenly, one person spoke up, tentatively asking:

"Blank... team leader, many among us Apostles are still not familiar with each other, and we can't even tell if someone else is an Apostle or not."

"Since you can contact all of us, how about giving us a way to confirm each other's identities when we meet?"

Xie Antong was immediately taken aback, raising an eyebrow.

She hadn't expected someone to say such a thing. Wasn't this equivalent to handing the method of gaining their trust directly to her?

No matter what, she had now become the connecting hub among these Apostles.

A somewhat amused smile curled at the corner of her mouth. Using Heaven's Net, she spoke to these Apostles:

"Considering that many of you haven't recognized each other yet, I hereby establish a gesture to be used for confirming identities."

Although she said that, Xie Antong herself hadn't thought about this kind of thing either and paused for a moment.

Coincidentally, she suddenly noticed her current posture: the index and middle fingers of her right hand supporting her temple, with the other fingers holding that single eyeglass lens.

So she said:

"The action: extend the index and middle fingers of your right hand, point them at your own temple, and say 'Apostle' to each other!"

As her words fell, everyone within her field of vision very uniformly raised their fingers, trying out that action.

Since there were no specific movement instructions, everyone's actions were wildly varied. Some even made gestures that looked like they were about to execute themselves.

Xie Antong watched everything before her eyes, the smile on her face gradually widening. Finally, she even leaned back in the sofa chair, covered her face, and opened her mouth in a loud laugh.

However, her laughter was soundless. She merely made the expression of laughing heartily, her body trembling slightly.

This was just too pleasurable. She even felt she had now refined quite a bit of that power of Pleasure.

"This is... just too amusing."

"Come, let me see..."

As she spoke, her left hand with distinct knuckles unconsciously lifted, as if manipulating a puppet, twisting and swaying in the air.

"Who will be the first cannon fodder unlucky soul?"

......

"Is no one planning to do something?"

In the sky, Lust looked down at the little people he controlled below. His malicious smile never disappeared.

But now, he was starting to feel bored again.

Below him, a sneaky Apostle suddenly shuddered.

After receiving Blank's earlier notification, he now received a second message.

"Come on, Xu Qi, you are the first link in this game."

Xu Qi, whose name was accurately called out, shuddered all over, his emotions extremely complex. There was excitement about joining a grand operation, and also an almost instinctive fear.

Was he about to... make a move against "Sin"?

"Me... is it me?"

"No need to be nervous." Xie Antong's bamboozling came through immediately. "Don't worry about the outcome. Your performance will be witnessed by all."

"The God of Pleasure is watching you!"

The god is watching me!

Hearing this, Xu Qi instantly seemed to be injected with strength, his gaze becoming firm in an instant.

"Please... give the order!"

Listening to the other party's solemn expression, Xie Antong in the internet cafe was on the verge of laughing so hard her face contorted.

But her voice remained calm as she said:

"Use your light beam, fire at him."

"You don't need to think about what the entire plan is. You just need to know that everything is part of the plan."

"Use all the abilities you currently possess to eliminate him!"

"Perhaps you will directly become the first one to defeat him, perhaps not. But your glory, [Pleasure] will forever remember it in heart!"
