After Naya stated his plan’s direction, the members of the Primordial Organization were all brimming with fighting spirit, but Xin was clearly not intimidated by Naya.
She mused for a moment, then furrowed her brow slightly and said,
“So, one of the Three Pillar Gods who possesses the power of time and space has been captured and can’t even escape on his own. What method should we use to rescue him?”
Most of those present were warriors, only skilled in close combat.
Sending these people to fight hand-to-hand against those modified False Gods would be like asking to die too quickly.
“Before this, we were indeed helpless, but now it’s different.”
Naya looked at Noah beside him and said in a proud tone, “My wife has received the blessing of the Star Spirit and gained the power of divination. Coupled with the unpredictable Tarot deck in her hand, we will definitely win this time!”
Xin looked at Noah, then shook her head and snorted, “Leader Naya, I’m not being difficult, but I really don’t think this little beauty has that much power. Maybe you should reconsider?”
“Uh…” Although the words were harsh, they were actually true.
Noah herself didn’t think she had that much power to contend with those mad scientists.
Noah weakly raised her hand and said, “Actually, I also think I…”
“Don’t worry!”
Naya interrupted Noah’s words, saying in a confident tone, “As long as my wife can harness the divine power of the Star Spirit, conquering the New Truth Organization is just a snap of the fingers!”
Naya’s confident words made the other members chime in one after another, while Noah nervously covered her face.
Xin watched everyone’s reactions and sighed, “Fine, whatever makes you happy…”
After finalizing the plan, the members of the Primordial Organization immediately began preparations.
First, they filled various homemade containers with water, then found a pile of useless scrap paper to start a fire for cooking.
This action surprised Xin.
She didn’t expect that after so long, the Primordial Organization could still find food.
After working with the group for a while, Suo’en handed Xin a blackened meat pie.
The pie was very dry and seemed a bit burnt.
Xin sniffed it, then tentatively took a bite.
“Oh! It’s pretty good!”
Xin chewed the meat pie and praised it, “Though it doesn’t look great, the taste is decent. Where did this meat come from?”
Xin looked up to ask the others, but before anyone could explain, she spotted Shabu, whose tentacles were being cut off.
Countless blood-red tentacles had just grown out and were being severed by the group, then sent off to be chopped up and grilled.
The final product seemed to be the meat pie in Xin’s hand.
“Uh…”
Xin looked down at the meat pie in her hand, forcing back the nausea. She turned her gaze to Suo’en. “Ah, ah…?”
Suo’en seemed to read Xin’s doubts.
As he distributed the meat pies, he explained to Xin, “Don’t worry, Miss Xin. This tentacle meat pie is thoroughly cooked. Even if you eat it, it won’t crawl around in your stomach. You can rest assured.”
“Damn it, stop explaining!”
Xin almost threw the meat pie in his face. She shouted angrily, “I wasn’t thinking about it before, but now after listening to you, I have the image in my head!”
But everyone present was calmly eating the tentacle meat pie as if nothing was wrong.
Xin sighed helplessly, squeezed the pie in her hand, and looked at Noah, who was drinking water, with envy.
“I’m really envious of your skill of not needing to eat.”
“Thanks, oh.”
“Don’t mention it…”
Xin sighed, and with the mindset that it was better than starving to death, she finally finished the meal.
Everyone began to gather the weapons they could use.
After checking the quantities, Naya came to Xin and said,
“Miss Xin, it’s time for you to start working.”
“Huh? What?”
Xin looked up in confusion.
After following Naya’s hand and seeing the Primordial Organization’s weapon stockpile, she nodded in understanding.
“Oh, I get it. Since I’ve eaten your food, it wouldn’t be right not to work. What weapons do you need?”
The reason Naya was so focused on inviting Xin to join the organization was because Xin knew Steel Refining Art, allowing her to create weapons out of thin air without a furnace.
Moreover, she wasn’t afraid of weapon damage—just melt them down and make new ones.
After learning that Xin had this ability, the organization members eagerly gathered around Xin, begging her to forge weapons for them.
There were plenty of metal objects in the lab, so there was no shortage of materials.
After making weapons for all the organization members, Xin was exhausted and nearly collapsed.
She accepted the dry rations handed to her by someone nearby, chewing while watching Shabu sleeping in the corner.
Naya seemed to notice Xin’s gaze and timely warned,
“Miss Xin, you can’t just bite Shabu’s raw tentacles. I can’t guarantee what might happen.”
“Do you think I’m that desperate?!”
Xin retorted irritably.
She quietly watched the constantly regenerating tentacles on Shabu’s body and asked Naya in confusion, “I’ve never seen her speak. Can she not talk?”
“No, Shabu just doesn’t like to talk,”
Naya explained. “If there’s anything that would make her speak, it’s her husband.”
“She has a husband?!”
Xin looked at Shabu’s body that looked like a blood-and-flesh amalgamation with surprise.
“Who is her husband?”
“It’s Yoge.”
Xin clicked her tongue, thinking about what sort of appearance Yoge must have to match Shabu.
While she was lost in thought, Naya announced to everyone, “Comrades, is everything ready? We’re about to start the operation.”
Everyone immediately gathered.
Xin also shed her previous lazy attitude and walked to the front of the line holding a long spear.
Naya instructed a few members to bring a table and chairs, then made a gesture of invitation to Noah.
“Come, my dear, please exercise your Divination Authority.”
“Uh…”
Noah was half-pushed and half-persuaded into sitting on the chair.
She pointed at herself first, then asked in confusion, “What should I do next?”
Not that Noah didn’t understand; she really had no experience.
“You’re asking me?”
Xin put her hand on her hip and said with a frown, “So many people are counting on you. If you mess up, we might as well disband.”
“Miss Xin, mind your manners,”
Naya said, glancing at Xin with a displeased tone.
“Alright, alright, alright…”
Xin waved her hand and complained weakly, “Just keep spoiling her…”
Actually, when she received the Star’s Blessing, Noah also gained knowledge of divination, but she had never tried it before and didn’t know the outcome.
Noah shuffled the cards according to the divination procedure, then divided the deck into three piles and rearranged them in a different order.
Noah recited the incantation mentioned in the divination knowledge, closing her eyes.
“GREAT STAR SPIRIT, WIPE THE STARRY SKY OF DESTINY FOR THE WORLD. WE, THE FOLLOWERS OF THE STAR, HEREBY PRAY FOR THE GIFT OF PROPHECY!”
This time it was a genuine real incantation.
As Noah chanted, she drew a card from the top of the deck. She opened her eyes and flipped the card over, seeing the image of a woman draped in silk, surrounded by a huge garden.
It was Tarot card number 21, 【The World】.
