Bai Yan is embarking on the Moon Witch’s introductory mission.

The game presented in this mission was no longer in pixel art style, and the Moon Witch was not portrayed as a 3D model.

In fact, the game style was quite rare-a live interactive movie format.

Simply put, it was similar to "The Invisible Guardian."

Through a large projection screen, Bai Yan sat inside the Babel Tower. He looked up and could clearly see the Witch, who was now frozen in shock and unable to move.

Long time no see.

Bai Yan couldn’t help but smile when he saw her, recalling the days when she used to eye him with intensity, making him feel nervous and uneasy. He also remembered the various embarrassing moments she had experienced after transforming into a cat.

Making the bad woman eat humble pie, he found it quite amusing.

"Ah, at last, as you wished, Miss Witch. You have always wanted to join the Babel Tower. Sadly, I had bad luck and could never fulfill your wish... I truly feel sorry, but now, I can finally keep my promise."

"So..."

"How do you feel now?"

Muttering to himself, Bai Yan pondered that perhaps joining the Babel Tower wouldn’t be the same as Merete Chambers had imagined.

He saw Miss Witch standing in the mayor’s office through the projection screen, her graceful figure clad in a black evening gown, unmoving.

And on both sides of her, four large "bubbles" appeared out of nowhere.

Inside the four "bubbles," there were words written in black font. If you looked closely, you would discover that they were actually... options for a game.

Bai Yan took a glance at the task prompt in the upper right corner of the projection screen.

"Headed towards the outskirts of Stone Bridge City, to solve the upcoming ‘sacrifice’ event in Clear Water Village."

"Countdown: Three hours."

Well, it doesn’t seem like a very difficult task. Dealing with incidents like this is just a common daily occurrence for Babel Tower.

So he carefully looked at the four game options again.

"Option one, let’s go to Clear Water Village immediately."

"Option two, let’s first investigate the news about Clear Water Village."

"Option three, send someone to Clear Water Village to search for relevant information."

"Option four, stand still and wait for the bathroom."

After reading all the options, Bai Yan felt a little exhausted to make any comments... Hey, hey, hey, option four doesn’t seem quite normal, no matter how you look at it.

To be honest, he became more and more convinced that the Babel Tower had a will of its own.

From the moment the Babel Tower refused to let him in, Bai Yan felt that something was off.

Later, Bai Yan discovered that the Babel Tower game would sometimes be very mischievous, making him feel that both the Babel Tower and the Babel Tower game were never just emotionless machines, but rather some kind of special beings with intelligence.

Otherwise, it wouldn’t have come up with such silly game options.

However, Bai Yan was able to confirm one thing.

Even if Babel Tower had self-awareness, it could not control the Babel Tower game. Only the person playing the game, the "player" themselves, could manipulate the course of the game.

He was undoubtedly the Lord of the Tower himself.

"Um, then let’s just choose the fourth option... um, just kidding."

Bai Yan muttered to himself as he gave up on playing pranks. Then, he didn’t rush, but instead chose the third game option.

It turned out that the witch had stayed in Belan World for a hundred years, secretly building her own influence, all in order to obtain information about the mythical rituals and legends of the Ultimate Ritual.

The secret organization "Hidden," led by the public figurehead "Samoyed," is the powerful force manipulated by her, and it has infiltrated various parts of World, directly and indirectly influencing many local governments and major corporations.

Basically, in some stories, "Hidden" is qualified to be the main antagonist, and Samoyed is the ultimate boss, while the witch serves as the hidden level boss.

By the way, over a hundred years have passed, and Samoyed, who originally only possessed awakening-level power, has now ascended to the position of Crown, and has even reached the level of becoming the ruling Crown.

Hmm, she had a rough idea.

It was simply a case of meddling, that’s all. The Babel Tower had a tendency to meddle, always getting involved in various crises and events. This time was no exception.

There was a crisis in Clear Water Village, and they were arranged by a remote-controlled Savior to resolve it. That’s how it happened.

Merete Chambers was extremely intelligent. She easily deduced the truth of the current situation. Then, she calmly squinted her eyes, watching the scene unfold as if she was in a play, completely unfazed by the feeling of being manipulated.

Compared to the inexperienced Mu Ling, Maryse, and others at the beginning, her attitude truly became elevated to an unknown level.

After a while, Samoyed came rushing over.

"Master, I have arrived."

The blind girl knelt on one knee, obediently bowing her head, afraid to directly meet the gaze of her inscrutable master.

She still had short, white hair, but she was no longer wearing that down jacket. Instead, she was dressed in an extremely glamorous white evening gown.

Thirty minutes ago, she was attending an important dinner, where all the participants belonged to the upper class of Belan World.

Samoyed, on the surface, was a prominent figure in the upper echelons of Belan World’s society. She had the power to decide the fate of thousands with just a word. However, secretly, she was also the leader of the mysterious organization called "Hidden," commanding the loyalty and adoration of countless individuals.

But in front of the witch, she was nothing at all, if one were to say, she was just a dog.

Every time Merete Chambers smiled and stroked Samoyed, she would tremble instinctively.

The witch was too scary.

She had witnessed the terror of this individual. Anyone stronger than her would crumble, be destroyed, and even suffer a more tragic fate than death as a result of a series of conspiracies.

This woman could, through observing people’s every move, fully understand a person’s character and...weaknesses.

However, even Samoyed could never have imagined one thing.

The master whom she had feared for centuries, the witch who stirred up the storms in Belan World, the hidden boss behind the scenes, at this very moment, had already become a "slave" to the Savior of Babel Tower in a higher position.

He couldn’t even move a finger!

Samoyed said immediately,

"Master, is your destination Clear Water Village? I have arranged for people to investigate, and they should soon bring back information. I will organize the relevant intelligence for you."

The witch pondered and suddenly realized that her mouth was moving.

She involuntarily made a sound, even though she had no intention of speaking.

"You did very well, my Samoyed."

After speaking, she started stroking Samoyed’s fur, and the young girl allowed her owner to play with her.

"This is what Samoyeds should do, master."

To my surprise, she could even imitate my own voice... Merete Chambers suddenly had a terrible, malicious conjecture that none of the other Core Operators had ever experienced before.

Is there a possibility of this happening?

In fact, all members of Babel Tower are permanently trapped in the same situation as themselves.

Their true souls are imprisoned, every move and action of Babel Tower members they have encountered is a performance simulated under the remote control of the Savior!

If it is indeed the case, then one’s soul is essentially completely sealed.

Even if "Merete Chambers" could become a god because of Babel Tower, the real self wouldn’t have any reason to exist anymore!

Until this moment, deep inside the calm and composed witch, there arose a small sense of nervousness and fear.

She gazed at Samoyed before her and spoke automatically:

"Okay, let’s continue investigating Clear Water Village."

Oh no, this is bad. I hope it doesn’t turn out this way.
