Under circumstances where stalling is unnecessary, Ginsengfruit is soone who values efficiency greatly.
"All of you, move aside!"
Er Dan turned its head, a hint of defiance against Ginsengfruit evident in its eyes.
The tentacles just embarrassed it, and it was just about to regain its dignity.
But as soon as it t the face of Yun Ran on Ginsengfruit, it imdiately backed down.
Even though it knew this wasn’t the real Yun Ran, it still feared Yun Ran’s face, especially after causing trouble not long ago.
In the end, Er Dan obediently stepped aside.
The Little Princess Puppet’s face was also covered with a layer of displeasure, as it believed it could handle those unruly tentacles on its own.
Just a little more ti was needed, but now Ginsengfruit seed intent on stealing the credit.
If it were just them and Ginsengfruit right now, the Little Princess Puppet would definitely have quarreled with him.
But now, it didn’t dare.
In front of outsiders, they couldn’t let others see their infighting, and even more so they couldn’t let Ginsengfruit, who was wearing their master’s face, be embarrassed.
The Little Princess Puppet could only angrily retreat to the side.
The three tentacles that erged, two were charred by lightning, and one was temporarily suppressed by Er Dan and the Little Princess Puppet.
The high-ranking mbers of Moonlight City glanced at the strange object in ’Yun Ran’s’ hand; although they didn’t know what it was, it was certainly a mighty magic artifact.
If all three tentacles were still intact, they might just turn a blind eye and let ’Yun Ran’ clean up the ss.
But now the situation was clearly a cleanup, and anyone could effectively handle the aftermath.
With such a good opportunity, why give it to an outsider?
Especially since there’s a group of people here claiming to be the Guard Army; if these high-ranking officials did nothing...
They might really lose face afterward.
Just as Ginsengfruit was about to act, the high authority of Moonlight City spoke, "Wait a minute!"
Ginsengfruit’s finger, which was about to press the switch, imdiately stopped, looking at those high-ranking officials with so confusion.
Hadn’t he already promised to drive these tentacles back underground and even offered compensation? What else did they want?
Not only Ginsengfruit was puzzled, but even the observing Dark Night and others looked towards Moonlight City’s high ranks in curiosity.
"What is it?"
Elder Kang, as one of the combat strengths, was the first to step out, still with a kindly expression, yet his eyes contained a hint of self-interest.
"Mr. Yun, your willingness to take on all the responsibility is comndable, but this is Moonlight City after all.
These matters can’t be entirely dependent on you outsiders; this is our ho, we naturally can’t just stand by and watch."
These words sounded very noble.
If at the very beginning, when the tentacles erged, Moonlight City’s high authorities stood up, it might have been more convincing.
But now...
Dark Night glanced at the tentacles that were obviously about to be defeated and suddenly understood.
These high-ranking mbers of Moonlight City wanted to co out and take the credit; the danger of these tentacles had been witnessed by many previously.
No matter who did what in between, as long as the final ending was orchestrated by these high authorities...
The end would see all the fa and glory going to Moonlight City’s high ranks.
This tactic was similar to what many Dark Masters faced during their training adventures.
Nobles or relationships often brought formidable bodyguards with them, who handled the most dangerous parts.
The finishing blow was administered by the relationship mbers, and all the credit would go to them in the end.
Upon returning, these relationship mbers could climb the ladder using the accrued credit.
Of course, this doesn’t an everyone did it this way.
So nobles or relationships were strong by themselves and didn’t need shortcuts.
Dark Night couldn’t help but feel sick at the thought of Moonlight City’s authorities using such tactics.
No wonder, since the Guard Army’s establishnt, it never really mixed well with Moonlight City’s rulers, and rarely t them.
After many generations, the Guard Army gradually beca a secret.
And now, these rulers didn’t even know about the Guard Army’s existence.
Compared to Dark Night’s unease, Ginsengfruit adapted well.
When Qingfeng Temple was originally erected, besides the hardware that the host had prepared early on, all those implicit rules were orchestrated by him.
This is why he, a system that wasn’t savvy about human nature, could grow rapidly in such a short ti.
Ultimately, it’s still the circumstances that teach people.
Once one understands human nature, many things beco clear.
Human nature is the most complex, eager for quick success, yet the most purely good contradiction.
Ginsengfruit sidestepped, withdrawing the weapon in his hand, and gestured invitingly.
"I naturally defer to the host."
The tone was indifferent, without the slightest impression of influence, and no sense of aggrievent or resentnt.
Elder Kang, through the corner of his eye, quickly scanned ’Yun Ran’, indeed not seeing any dissatisfaction on her face.
This made Elder Kang quietly ponder.
It was rare to see soone of Yun Ran’s age with such composure.
Such a person either had an inherently relaxed temperant or was so deep that it was frightening, with others unable to fathom her inner thoughts.
But at this mont, regardless of what was going on with ’Yun Ran’...
It couldn’t change the Moonlight City high authorities’ intention to intervene.
Subsequently, several others around Elder Kang’s age stood out.
These individuals, unlike Elder Kang, did not need to interact amicably with outsiders in Moonlight City and maintain a friendly deanor.
Each wore a stern face as if soone owed them a great deal of money.
Er Dan and the Little Princess Puppet, dissatisfied with Ginsengfruit for yielding the position.
If the circumstances allowed, they both wanted to charge over now to reprimand Ginsengfruit.
Why give away the credit that was nearly theirs to these people?
Ginsengfruit seed to sense their feelings and turned to look in their direction.
The mont their eyes t, combined with the fact that Ginsengfruit was using Yun Ran’s face, Er Dan suddenly felt as if it was being stared at by the real Yun Ran.
That familiar feeling of suppression was almost identical.
This made Er Dan internally complain: Really, knowing it was a bit afraid of Yun Ran, yet deliberately using such a gaze to intimidate it!
