Chapter 385 Eight Failed Containers Awaken Simultaneously: Who is the Ninth Key?
"Chenlong".
"Stop hiding it."
"The door you chose is about to open."
The voice of the green-haired phantom still lingered in the temporary data capsule.
Bai Zhi's remote view is now just static.
However, the last frame has already been automatically captured, enlarged, locked, and archived by the system.
In the scene, the Holy Lord stands in the center of the Xia family ruins.
He looked up, facing the sky.
That single name-calling carries more weight than any test report.
Chenlong.
The door I chose.
It's about to open.
These two collaborated?
Chen Yifan sat on the isolation chair, his chest still aching.
Guiying's clone was shattered by the Holy Lord from a distance. He didn't know what method the other party used, but the backlash actually crashed all the way back to his original body, making the outer layer of his consciousness numb.
But this cut was deep enough.
Shenhou was the first to come to his senses.
"Did you preserve the white gardenia?"
Bai Zhi's fingers flew across the device.
"Three copies have been archived offline."
"The first one went into the black box of the Department of Penalties."
"The second document will be placed in Lord Rabbit's temporary treasury."
"The third one..."
She paused for a moment and looked at Chen Yifan.
"The third copy was automatically synchronized to the witness protection file."
Shenhou laughed on the spot.
"it is good."
"If that old guy wants to delete it, he'll have to blow up all three of our databases first."
The mouse's voice came through the communicator.
Don't be too happy yet.
"It's not impossible that Chenlong might really explode."
Shenhou looked up and started cursing.
"Can you say something auspicious?"
The mouse didn't answer.
The projection of the Rabbit has switched to the adjudication council mode.
The twelve seats were rearranged.
The Monkey and the Rat projected themselves into the image.
This time, the golden dragon pattern on Chenlong's chief position appeared very slowly.
Dark purple spots were wriggling along the edges of the pattern.
Shenhou stared at the dragon pattern.
"See that?"
"We don't even need to check, it's already moldy."
A zodiac emblem that had been silent for a long time lit up.
The voice has been processed, making it impossible to identify the person.
Submit evidence.
The Rabbit (卯兔) doesn't waste words.
The first set of data remaining at the Xia family's scene popped up.
Green Life Origin Waveform.
Golden causal threads remain.
The snake splits into blood-scaled forms.
The eye of the Heaven-Sealing and Earth-Locking Array.
Four patterns overlap in mid-air.
Bai Zhi took over the explanation, her voice tense, but her reasoning was very clear.
"The green crystal is the source of life and shares the same origin as the parasitic pollution within the witness star official's body."
"The golden causal threads are remnants of the Chenlong's authority link."
"The fact that the snake split into blood scales proves that there was indeed a force at the level of the twelve zodiac animals involved at the scene."
"The fragments of the Heaven-Sealing Array came from the area where the Xia family incident occurred."
She waved her hand.
The four lines converge to form a node.
"in conclusion."
"The Xia family site contains the source of the Holy Lord's energy, which resonates with the causal link of Chenlong."
"This type of resonance cannot be faked using a mechanical spark."
Shen Hou raised his staff and pointed it at the chief.
"Chenlong, did you understand?"
"You can't get it clean!"
The dragon patterns on Chenlong slowly lit up.
His voice was flat.
"The Order Council possesses the technology to graft pollution chains."
"Mechanical sparks can simulate causal residue."
"Stargate contamination can forge information from Outer God sources."
"All of the above evidence could have been tampered with."
Shenhou chuckled.
Here we go again.
"Everything is fake."
"So, when the Holy Lord called your name just now, was it also part of a last-minute rehearsal by the Council of Order?"
Chenlong ignored him.
"The heavens are under the highest level of martial law."
"All evidence related to pollution has been suspended from review."
"The star official is transferred to the core review area."
"The Rabbit, Monkey, and Rat have overstepped their authority in the investigation and are temporarily suspended pending review."
Upon hearing this, several zodiac animal emblems flashed simultaneously.
Rabbit raised its hand and laid out the three sets of data side by side.
"First, the Xia family reported back from the scene."
"Secondly, remnants of the decaying Star Sea access control system."
"Third, the core of the purification device is malfunctioning."
She stared at Chief Dragon Pattern.
"Three independent sources."
"Three different links."
"Synchronization points to external consciousness, container recycling, Chenlong's permissions are abnormal."
"Chenlong, you say all three places have been tampered with, then produce the source of the tampering."
Chenlong paused for half a second.
"Witness Star Officials pose a risk of spreading contamination."
"Take care of the source of pollution first, then examine the evidence."
Upon hearing this, Shenhou immediately stood up from his seat.
"Trying to kill the witness again?"
"Come."
He reached out and grabbed, and the restraint rings on the isolation chair automatically untied halfway.
Chen Yifan was lifted up by two black-armored law enforcement officers from the Department of Punishment and pushed to the center of the adjudication council.
Bai Zhi grew anxious.
"Lord Shenhou, his pollution index is still at a high level!"
Shenhou waved his hand.
"He won't die."
"This kid's life is tougher than I thought."
Chen Yifan lowered his head and swayed slightly.
On the surface, he is now a star official who has been tormented to the point of near collapse.
The surface-level thoughts are still circulating.
The star official was afraid of death.
The star official is loyal to the Dragon.
The star official doesn't understand the schemes of the great man.
The star official just wanted to prove that he hadn't lied.
Zishu coughed softly over the communicator.
Chen Yifan immediately suppressed his distracting thoughts.
Shenhou walked to his side.
"Star Lord, tell me again what happened to you at the Xia family."
Chen Yifan looked up, his voice hoarse.
"Your subordinate is ordered to escort you along the route."
"Ambushed midway."
"The other party used a mechanical fire-generating device and claimed to be acting on orders from a mechanical god throne."
The dragon pattern on Chenlong's head lit up briefly.
"You admit that the intelligence points to the Council of Order."
Chen Yifan immediately lowered his head.
"That was my assessment at the time."
Shenhou frowned.
"Don't be a coward, keep going."
Chen Yifan took a couple of breaths.
"But looking back now, their appearance was too coincidental."
"The moment the route changed, the other party arrived."
"The clone of Lord Si Snake also happened to be present."
"The evidence they left behind was so complete, it was as if they were afraid we wouldn't see it."
Bai Zhi's fingers stopped.
The rabbit also looked at him.
Chen Yifan continued.
"If it really was a sneak attack by the Council of Order, they should silence them, abduct the people, and evacuate."
"But they keep emphasizing the mechanical throne."
"At the time, my subordinate thought it was a provocation."
He coughed up blood, which fell onto the metal floor.
"Now it seems more like someone brought the Council of Order into the open to cover up the Holy Lord's presence."
The court fell silent for a moment after the ruling.
Shenhou raised his stick and lightly tapped the ground.
"Did you hear me?"
"Even a witness who's been hacked to the point of insanity knows better than some of you who're pretending to be asleep."
Chenlong's voice finally deepened a bit.
"Star Lord, you are contradicting your own testimony."
Chen Yifan immediately lowered his head.
"I'm just adding to the information."
"Your subordinates dare not overthrow anything."
"Your subordinates dare not question the chief."
Shenhou almost burst out laughing.
"That's a very clever thing to say."
"You're so well-behaved, I'd like to give you a banner of appreciation."
The rat suddenly spoke.
"I'll add one more."
All seats switched to the review area communication.
The rat, usually so lazy he seemed half-asleep, spoke with a less listless tone this time.
"Echoes of non-human consciousness lingered within the Chenlong projection channel."
Chenlong responded immediately.
"You have not accessed the core of the channel."
The rat slowly took over.
"I don't need to touch it."
"Every time you project, the channel will leave an echo of your thoughts."
"A normal person's echo is punctuated."
"Mechanical consciousness is a pulse."
"That thing outside the star gate is repeating the same word."
Rabbit immediately pressed for an answer.
"What word?"
The Rat didn't keep us in suspense.
"Open the door."
Several zodiac animal emblems lit up at the same time.
The rat continues.
"The echo frequency is consistent with that of the Rotten Star Ocean Star Gate."
"It shares the same origin as the core statement of the purification device: 'The containers must be recycled.'"
"Chenlong, your projection channel has been used by an external consciousness."
Shenhou slammed his hand on the table.
"pretty!"
"Rat, you've finally done something humane today."
The mouse replied lazily.
"If you call me a rat again, I will withdraw my testimony."
"No, no, no, Lord Rat is wise and mighty."
"Nausea."
The Rabbit didn't give them time to argue.
She raised her hand to submit the program.
[Proposal: Initiate a temporary freeze on the first site.]
[Reason: Chenlong's access control system appears to have been contaminated by an external entity, and it has been found to have interfered with witnesses, destroyed evidence, and illegally opened container programs.]
[A majority of the twelve zodiac animal seats need to be confirmed.]
The dragon patterns on Chenlong suddenly expanded.
Dark purple spots crawled from the edge of the dragon pattern toward the center.
"Rabbit of the Rabbit"
You've crossed the line.
The rabbit's fingers never stopped.
Article 39 of the Adjudication Board's Articles of Association.
"The First Seat himself is involved in foreign-related divine corruption, and the temporary freeze procedure can be initiated by a joint signature of the three Seats."
Shenhou immediately signed.
"The Ministry of Penalties agrees."
The rat followed.
"The review area agrees."
The first Silent Emblem lit up.
"Review approved."
the second.
"I agree to freeze non-essential permissions."
The third.
"agree."
System prompts kept popping up.
[Number of votes: four.]
[Number of votes: 5.]
Chenlong did not argue further.
Suddenly, the chief dragon pattern extended a large number of golden threads outwards, directly wrapping around the core of the Judgment Council system.
Rabbit's expression changed.
"He's trying to steal master control!"
Shenhou picked up a long stick and was about to smash the projection array base.
"Can we smash this thing?"
Bai Zhi reminded him in a sharp voice.
"We can't smash it! Smashing it will cause the arbitration data to collapse!"
Shenhou cursed.
"Then your technical staff should hurry up!"
Bai Zhi hurriedly took over.
"I'm cutting!"
"Chenlong is using the primary low-level key; I can only stall!"
Chen Yifan stood in the center, supported by two men in black armor, looking as if he might collapse at any moment.
But his attention was focused on the area below the chief dragon pattern.
The dark purple spots there are increasing.
Chenlong is seizing control.
Foreign consciousness is also spreading through his authority.
This is an opportunity.
You cannot steal from everything.
The Purple Gold Pagoda must not be exposed.
But the star deity is corrupted.
There is the source of the Holy Lord.
There are also marks from being cut by the purification knife.
Chen Yifan suddenly raised his hand and pressed it against his chest.
"White Tech Officer".
Bai Zhi was so busy she couldn't even lift her head.
"What are you doing?"
"Can the recycling process of the purification device be traced in reverse?"
Bai Zhi was stunned for a moment.
"Theoretically, it's possible, but it's already been sealed off..."
"It just bit me."
Chen Yifan's voice was intermittent.
"There are still traces of it on my body."
Shenhou immediately turned his head.
"Don't you dare do anything reckless."
Chen Yifan lowered his head.
"This subordinate does not wish to be taken away by Lord Chenlong again."
That's a cowardly statement.
But his cowardice was justified.
Bai Zhi gritted her teeth.
"You can try."
"But it will stimulate the growth of parasitic pollutants in your body."
The rat interrupted.
"He is very afraid right now."
"The fear is quite real."
Shenhou glared at him.
"Can you please not add insult to injury at a time like this?"
Chen Yifan closed his eyes briefly.
"bring it on."
Bai Zhi connected an offline tracking link to the residual port on the isolation chair, and then connected it to the contamination detection film on Chen Yifan's chest.
The next second, the bit of Saint Lord's Source Qi within Chen Yifan's body was gently stirred.
He forcefully suppressed the Purple Gold Pagoda, preventing it from retaliating.
The tracking link followed the residue from the purification device, and then backtracked to the golden thread that Chenlong was using to seize control.
Bai Zhi suddenly shouted.
"Gotcha!"
In mid-air, a new pattern lit up.
Purification device.
Recycling procedure.
Chenlong Permission Chain.
Rotten Star Sea Access Control.
The four nodes form a closed loop.
The last node displays two words.
[Open the door]
In the adjudication chamber, all voices fell silent.
The Rabbit seized the opportunity and forcibly pressed the freeze confirmation.
The temporary freeze procedure for the first seat remains in effect.
[Chenlong is removing unnecessary permissions...]
Twenty percent.
Forty percent.
The dragon patterns on the dragon's head began to flash intensely.
Shenhou raised his stick and pointed it at the chief.
"Old Dragon."
"Now it's finally your turn to eat the crap out of this system."
Sixty percent.
Just then, the entire sky suddenly trembled.
A large number of sparks fell from the top of the temporary data cabin.
An alarm sounded simultaneously on the communication channel.
[Core review area attacked!]
[Isolation chamber door damaged!]
[Failed container storage area is unreachable!]
Bai Zhi's face turned pale instantly.
"The first eight candidate containers are there!"
Shenhou cursed angrily.
"Who did it?"
The shouts of members of the Penal Department came through the communication.
"There's been a defection within the censorship area!"
"They blew open the sealed door!"
"Double, the sealing door has been blown open!"
The dragon pattern of Chenlong stopped above the chief's seat.
Dark purple has already climbed to the position of the dragon's head.
His voice finally showed some variation.
"You think you can shut the door on me by freezing my account?"
The Rabbit suddenly stood up.
"Shenhou, take your men to the core review area!"
Shenhou had already rushed towards the cabin door.
"Star Lord, stay!"
Chen Yifan looked up at that moment.
Core review area.
The first eight failed containers.
He's on the container list.
Eight failed products, just front-end locks.
The real key hasn't been put into the cabin yet.
This line must not be broken.
He straightened up, leaning on the isolation chair, his voice still a little hoarse.
"Lord Shenhou."
The monkey turns its head.
"What are you planning to do now?"
Chen Yifan raised his hand and tore off the chest X-ray.
The pollution index spiked instantly.
"I have reviewed the list of containers."
"They're looking for the ninth key."
Shenhou's pupils contracted.
How did you know?
Chen Yifan did not answer.
The surveillance footage from a distance has been switched over.
The gate to the core review area was blown in two.
White mist billowed out of the storage compartment.
Eight figures locked in nutrient pods opened their eyes simultaneously.
next second.
All eight mouths opened at once.
The same sentence traveled through the communication channels and reached every seat in the adjudication committee.
"The door requires the ninth key."
