54: How Vivian became a human

After a few days of travel, you leisurely arrived at the Holy City without attracting any attention.

You are not clear about the detection strength of the Demonic Seed's Red Line, and to prevent the Demonic Seed from sensing your plans, you decide to live under a false identity from now on. Vivian will temporarily settle in the Judgment Prison.

"Damn Demonic Seed, the Red Line has full map vision. How am I supposed to play like this?"

Meng Yun felt indignant.

The Demonic Seed has not shown any unusual movements so far. It's possible it hasn't noticed, or it's even more likely that it's fishing.

Regardless of the possibility, Meng Yun must be more cautious than in the first simulation.

Greeting Meng Yun was the silver-haired, long-eared female warrior, Laila.

After receiving the contained items supported by the Clown Puppet, she became very interested in its master.

Today, she finally got her wish.

"Welcome, esteemed..."

"My name is Jack," Meng Yun said with a faint smile.

Having already used the disguise mask, he naturally and smoothly switched his name again.

This was the first time Meng Yun saw this woman with his own eyes.

It must be said that Laila's face was at least fifty percent similar to Vivian's.

This suggests that Vivian becoming a contained item must have an untold story.

"Welcome, generous and righteous Mr. Jack." Laila extended her hand to Meng Yun.

"Let's skip the pleasantries," Meng Yun's hand touched hers and separated instantly. "I've brought dozens more contained items this time. This should greatly enhance your power."

Laila's face showed a shocked expression: "Dozens? Did you empty the Foundation?"

Meng Yun shook his head modestly: "Only a third of it. Some contained items would be noticed if moved, so it couldn't be helped."

The Wind Severing Sword, the contained item in the S-rank Black Armor's hand, was one of the items Meng Yun couldn't replace.

That Black Armor was either practicing with his sword or oiling it. Meng Yun thought of swapping it during maintenance?

The item was swapped in the morning.

The person was gone by noon.

Hearing Meng Yun's modest words, Laila almost lost control of her expression.

Only then did she realize that the two of them were still standing outside the city gate, belatedly saying: "Mr. Jack, please follow me into the city."

Stepping into the Holy City, it was nothing like the free and inclusive Doin City, nor was it as orderly as the Foundation's Satellite City.

Here, there were ruins everywhere, and injured and sick people everywhere.

This was war.

But surprisingly, there was little despondency on their faces; only fighting spirit and hope.

Meng Yun instantly felt respect for this group of pioneers.

"Sir, this is a gift from my sister." A little boy ran over, hesitating and not daring to approach.

Meng Yun looked into his hand and saw a candy. Behind him, by a broken wall, a little girl was sucking her finger, her eyes full of anticipation.

She seemed to really hope Meng Yun would accept it.

"Many people in the Holy City have heard about your deeds. Everyone admires you very much," Laila explained from the side. "This child's parents both... died in the Foundation's battle."

Meng Yun was silent.

He inexplicably thought of young Tom.

He wondered how he was doing in the Satellite City now.

Without his own discovery, would he go back to being a thief?

But this time, he wouldn't meet a soft-hearted god!

Meng Yun bent down slightly, took the candy from the boy's palm, and then prepared to take out some supplies as a reward.

The boy shook his head and ran away quickly, shouting as he ran: "Tom, you should teach me Arcane now!"

"Tom?" Meng Yun couldn't help but voice his confusion.

Laila smiled and explained: "Tom is a young man our leader brought back from the Foundation's territory. He was originally a descendant of the Anti-Resistance Army."

The sense of incongruity in his heart grew stronger, and Meng Yun asked again: "Your leader?"

"Hehe, that would be me. We've been acquainted for a long time, Mr. Jack."

An old man in a black Arcane robe appeared from nowhere, as if by instantaneous movement.

The newcomer was none other than the president of the Arcane Association, Otto.

Otto was actually the leader of the Anti-Resistance Army?

Incredible!

Seemingly seeing Meng Yun's confusion, Otto said teasingly:

"Don't spread it around.

I also couldn't stand the Foundation's actions, so I secretly supported these unfortunate people. Who knew that after going back and forth, I actually became the leader of the Anti-Resistance Army..."

Otto's gaunt face twitched, clearly speechless.

Meng Yun, hearing this, couldn't help but laugh wryly.

However, now.

With Otto, an Arcane Envoy peak expert, the chances of counterattacking the Foundation and eradicating the Demonic Seed have increased.

The immediate priorities were, firstly, to help the Holy City combat personnel become familiar with the uses of various contained items, and secondly, to help Vivian upgrade to S-rank again.

Vivian's powerful combat ability had already been proven; even after her initial promotion to S-rank, she could possess the power of an Arcane Envoy at its peak!

"It's just a pity that the Calamity Witch in Statham's hands is always a problem." Otto sighed involuntarily when he thought of her.

If it weren't for her existence, he would even dare to immediately march his army and strike directly at the heart.

Laila, standing beside him, also fell silent when she heard the name Calamity Witch.

Meng Yun saw it in his eyes.

It was time to give them a little shock.

Meng Yun invited the two: "Please follow me to a place."

In an instant, Meng Yun, Otto, and Laila arrived in a dim space.

Otto was, after all, well-traveled and knowledgeable. While Laila was still surprised, his expression had already changed slightly:

"This is... the Judgment Prison? Jack, what do you mean!"

Otto knew that the Judgment Prison was a contained item, and he also knew that unless the Warden gave his consent, no one could leave alive!

The Warden, as an S-rank, plus numerous guards, even if he and Laila charged together, it would be difficult to escape alive!

This Jack, he wouldn't be sent by Statham to mess with them, would he?

As the thought crossed his mind, Otto's hand had already gathered red energy, preparing to kill Meng Yun on the spot. As for how to escape, that could be dealt with later!

Meng Yun: ?

No?

Otto, you're not in league with Statham, are you?

Seeing that he stole too many things from the Foundation, you couldn't sit still?

Red flames began to swirl, and just as he was about to launch his attack, two figures, one from the left and one from the right, arrived like lightning.

Vivian, in a black and red Lolita dress, her pretty face covered in frost, and the glasses-wearing Warden, equally fierce.

With their cooperation, Otto's attack was instantly neutralized, and they simultaneously attacked him from both sides.

"The Calamity Witch??!" Otto's face changed drastically.

If it were a one-on-one fight, Otto would fear no one in the world, but the Calamity Witch and the Warden fighting together...

His mind was greatly shaken, and in just an instant, Otto was captured alive by Vivian.

Meng Yun: "..."

"President Otto, did you misunderstand something?"

"It's obvious, Vivian and the Warden were also stolen by me from the Foundation!"

As the words fell, Otto's beard trembled violently!

Stolen?

How did such a large Judgment Prison get moved away without anyone knowing?

Are you fooling an old fool?

But feeling Vivian's control over him disappear, reality left Otto no choice but to believe.

This Jack is truly a freak!

Although he didn't know how Jack managed all this, for himself, it was definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

Otto was already immersed in the fantasy of breaking through the Foundation, while Laila, on the other hand, showed emotion on her exquisite face when she saw Vivian:

"Sister..."

"Brother."

Vivian walked straight up to Meng Yun, like a child seeking praise.

Meng Yun placed his hand on the girl's head, gently stroking it.

Laila's expression froze.

Him?

Brother?

And, is it really comfortable to have your hair stroked?

"Vivian, come look, this is your sister."

Vivian then turned and looked at Laila.

This was... the woman she killed with one blow in the last cycle?

She is, sister...?

No impression.

As a contained item, Vivian was already content with having a brother. She didn't care if she had another sister.

But then again, if this person really was her sister, wouldn't that mean she killed her own sister in the last life?

Alright.

Vivian, who lacked emotional training, still felt nothing.

[During Laila's explanation, you understood everything. A hundred years ago, Statham rose abruptly, establishing the Mysterious Foundation organization, and began to collect all contained items scattered among the populace.]

[While strengthening his own power, he also launched a massacre against the elves. He believed that the elves' innate affinity for elements and their long lifespans posed a significant threat to the Foundation's rule.]

[As the most talented, Vivian was transformed into a humanoid contained item under these circumstances.]

[Vivian reluctantly acknowledged Laila's status as her sister, but she was not prepared to accept this kinship, believing that having a brother was enough for her.]

Meng Yun nodded in thought, then suddenly looked up: "Since there's a method to turn people into contained items, there must be a method to turn Vivian back into a human!"

The answer to this question likely lies with Statham!"
