Chapter 63: Chapter 58: Miss Freeloader

The people from the City Hall pinched their noses and came over, “Lord Luo, this isn’t according to the rules, is it? How can you lock a person and a monster together, it’s too dangerous. If something happens, can you bear the responsibility?”

Glancing at the barely breathing Inhaler still tied up, Luo Jin coldly looked at the people from the City Hall, “You can choose to stay and accompany the Viscount. I think that would be safer.”

“Captain Luo Jin, your actions will all be recorded!”

“No need for that. If it can prove my innocence, I’m willing. Although this child was framed, he ultimately caused a disaster in the Celestial Capital. After this is over, I will establish a charitable fund to aid the victims,” Montreal said, and then looked at Luo Jin with a faint smile, “Lord Luo, I hope you can also contribute at that time.”

Luo Jin left, unsure at which step something went wrong. Montreal was too stable. If it didn’t work at the last moment, he would have to intervene. Actually, the proof was quite simple, but the cost was higher. Weighing the options, it was the only way.

In the Night Patrol office, Li Xin had just used the dice for a determination. He couldn’t directly determine if Montreal was the Inhaler, so he changed direction: Luo Jin’s trial would go smoothly tomorrow.

He had currently summarized two high-probability rules for obtaining accurate determinations: one was closely related to himself, and the other was sufficient information. While ensuring sufficient information, it couldn’t be too complex.

Otherwise, the dice’s idle spinning could be considered meaningless, and these were reflected in the dice’s spinning rhythm and shape.

According to the information obtained at the Round Table Conference, the power of the Divine Relic should only appear after One Life is activated. His current ability was not yet well-developed. In earlier training, Li Xin would opt for relatively straightforward and simple determinations.

No matter the result of this determination, it couldn’t serve as evidence.

Judging from the case, there was definitely a problem with Montreal, but since it concerned his dear uncle’s fate, Li Xin needed to be cautious.

The dice finally settled on two points, effectively determining that there was no major change. Tomorrow’s trial was the judgment session for Luo Jin.

The determination result from the dice could be altered with significant factors appearing, but the more resolute the determination, the greater the difficulty. Two points only left a slim chance for Luo Jin.

Thinking about it made his head buzz, and a needle-like sensation rushed to his forehead, still feeling an explosive pain despite having experienced it many times.

Of course, not much could be seen from Li Xin’s face. The next moment, the Red Moon Medal on his body began to emit a warm glow, the red light covering Li Xin, causing the impending severe pain to gradually recede, and his tense muscles also started to relax. Li Xin took a deep breath, watching the Red Moon Medal dim. Li Xin knew that this treasure had worn out a lot again; it seemed about to be exhausted shortly after obtaining it.

No matter what kind of eerie place the Holy Land was, this matter needed handling before he went there.

Feeling the tingling, numbness in his brain, Li Xin slowly drifted into sleep, though it wasn’t restful. Just as he was about to enter deep sleep, the dice wobbled, thump, thump, thump…

Thump, thump, thump…

The dice began to shake, the familiar summon arrived.

With a swirling motion, Li Xin arrived at the Twelve Zodiac Star Disc, under the celestial starry dome, and saw the other three he hadn’t seen in a long time.

“I’m very glad to see everyone,” Estella said first, with joy evident.

Cantona smiled, spreading his hands wide, “Indeed, I’m very glad. We almost couldn’t meet again.”

The life of the Travel Group was full of crises every moment, always on high alert, but here was a rare time for Cantona to relax and feel like a normal person.

“Taurus, are you hurt?” Christian keenly noticed, and the injury wasn’t minor.

Cantona nodded, “Encountered a master recently, but fortunately, recovered quite a bit, or I might not have made it.”

“Is Mr. Taurus okay, do you need help?” Estella asked.

“Thanks, Miss Aries, I just need some time to resolve it. I need to stay in the safe house for a while. I feel a bit stifled, but talking with everyone helps the recovery,” Cantona said.

The others could hear that his mood was rather stable, even a bit joyful, though it was unclear why being injured was something to be happy about. However, Christian keenly noticed that Taurus’s third star was faintly glowing, indicating that his mastery of the Divine Relic had improved dramatically.

“I also have good news,” Estella said, “I’ve been trying to come here actively, and my success rate is improving. Additionally, there’s another discovery: when I touch the corresponding star with my mind, I might be able to summon everyone here. I might need to experiment more in the future.”

“Yes, I’ve been successfully summoned by Miss Aries once,” Li Xin nodded.

“Oh, why didn’t Miss Aries summon me?” Christian asked in confusion.

“I accidentally touched Mr. Gemini’s star last time. If Mr. Cancer and Mr. Taurus agree, I’ll proceed with the experiment,” Estella said.

“If feasible, that would be a major advancement for our Round Table Conference; otherwise, it’s too uncontrollable. In case of emergencies, there’s no way to contact anyone. Miss Aries, can you share how to contact the Star Disc?” Cantona was very interested, especially now that he was wanted and injured, it was just the right time to study it.

“Of course, actually it was discovered out of boredom. When my consciousness was immersed in the Divine Relic, I found a kind of thread, a very faint connection. Then I kept following the thread. Sometimes it would suddenly disappear, but if it didn’t, I would come here,” Estella said.

The Round Table Conference fell silent, “Miss Aries, your actions are very dangerous. The first rule of secret events is to control curiosity,” Christian said.

“Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Cancer. I will be careful in the future,” Estella actually knew this too, but this was the boldest thing she could do.

“Miss Aries, do you mean you enter the Star Disc in a conscious state?” Cantona suddenly asked.

“Yes, Mr. Taurus, this should be another discovery,” Estella replied with a smile.

These discoveries made her feel a great sense of achievement. In her daily life, she always had to be meticulous, surrounded by compliments. But those compliments always seemed to be about her appearance and identity. Here, it was different. Others couldn’t see her, and she could gain recognition through her own efforts and strength.

Here, they were partners, friends.

“Miss Aries, you’re incredible. This is yet another major discovery. If everyone could do it, it would be extraordinary!” Cantona genuinely praised. “For example, if any emergency arises, we could enter the Round Table Conference to summon others for help.”

Estella nodded in greeting, “Mr. Taurus flatters me. I’m very happy to contribute to the Round Table Conference.”

Christian didn’t pay much attention because he didn’t think others could offer him any help, except he didn’t want Miss Aries to be disturbed by others. Moreover, if he truly encountered difficulties, they couldn’t intervene. Besides, he never experienced any difficulties himself.

Sigh, in the end, it’s up to me to lead them. Oh well, they are just lucky.

“If it can be done, it will indeed be more convenient. Moreover, over time, as our connections strengthen, the Round Table Conference members might also have private transactions; this would be a good place for it,” Cantona said. His thoughts were broad, and even though the Round Table Conference members were still relatively few and somewhat wary of each other, as they got to know one another, there would undoubtedly be more room for cooperation.

People and relationships grow.

An organization covering the entire Dao Yuan Continent, possessing excellent Divine Relics and personal powers, and having the fastest communication ability, theoretically, could exert a terrifying influence.

It’s just that the other three people didn’t seem to realize it yet. Miss Aries enjoyed the thrill of adventure, Mr. Cancer seemed to lack nothing, and Mr. Gemini seemed to lack everything.

Cantona glanced at Gemini, who had been quiet.

In the Dao Yuan Continent, no one should understand the benefits of instant communication better than Li Xin. Oh, there used to be someone, but they passed. Currently, he was in a position of needing assistance among the Round Table Conference, so it wasn’t appropriate to boast.

Miss Aries provided the idea, and Mr. Taurus and Mr. Cancer also planned to try after this meeting, first stabilizing their ability to reach here and then attempting to summon the corresponding stars. This was also a further understanding of the Twelve Zodiac Star Disc.

“Gemini, you don’t seem to have made any progress?” Christian turned his attention to Li Xin, his tone slightly reproachful.

What’s with this guy? Why is it so difficult to open One Life? The point is, after all this time, it’s been hinted to him enough. Since he can come to the Twelve Zodiac Star Disc, his aptitude can’t be too bad. Even without a magic potion, he should have ventured into the Holy Land a few times. But his Life Star remained dim.

He hated people who held back the team, especially those supporting characters he couldn’t lead.

The gaze of Miss Aries and Mr. Taurus also fell upon Li Xin’s Life Star, showing no progress. “Mr. Gemini hasn’t attempted the Holy Land?” Cantona asked out of curiosity.

Li Xin smiled wryly, “I’ve been a bit busy recently and haven’t had the chance.”

Seeing the second star of Miss Aries already faintly glowing, indicating her new insights and progress, while Li Xin showed no advancement, it wasn’t about others intervening; it was suspected that the Life Star wasn’t just a progress guide, possibly hiding other secrets of the Star Disc.

“You need to hurry up. The Life Star might affect the entry of future members. What’s been holding you back for so long?” Christian couldn’t help asking. The worst thing for a team is having someone hold them back. It’s a pity he couldn’t control the Star Disc, otherwise the first person he’d kick out would be Gemini.

“Mr. Cancer is right. Mr. Gemini, are you facing any issues? I think our Round Table Conference can assist each other for mutual progress. If it’s convenient, why not share it?” Estella’s gentle voice chimed in.

Christian’s eyes widened; he didn’t say that!

Miss Aries should be called Miss Give, too kind and gentle. In human interactions, even for wealthy nobles, continually accepting unsolicited gifts is what beggars do. The final result can only be a step-by-step fall. He hoped Gemini would have the courage to refuse.

“I am so grateful to Miss Aries!” Li Xin sincerely said, “I was a bit embarrassed to speak up.”

Some people were visibly upset.
