Chapter 1422 - The Solution (1/2)

While Hao Ren was still thinking of asking Raven 12345 about other people who were not affected by the translocation, the goddess already had everything covered. The people brought by the arcane servant were all familiar faces. They were the demon hunters, Hasse and White Flame, and otherworldlings, Hesperides and Hessiana. It seemed that the four of them had no idea why they were there.

Hao Ren felt like there should be more people who had not been affected by the space-time abnormality.

“Don’t worry, everyone else has been taken care of,” Raven 12345 said without waiting for Hao Ren to ask, as though she had read his mind. “Many people have noticed the space-time anomaly. Other than those who are affected by my power, people who are extremely sensitive or mentally sturdy are also aware that there is something wrong with the world. The security system of the sovereign hub was automatically activated but not calibrated to identify individual humans. So these people were stuck between the real and mirrored Earth. Except for those who can contribute here, I have temporarily ‘frozen’ the rest. After things are over, they will naturally be restored to their original state.”

“Those who can contribute here” apparently referred to the people on the platform.

Usually, Hao Ren would have lashed out at Raven 12345, but this time, he could not help but feel grateful for the excellent arrangement. “You really know a thing or two in cleaning up this mess, eh?”

Holding her head high, Raven 12345 said, “Of course, my ability to make a mess is well-known throughout the multiverse, it is only natural that I am equally pro in cleaning up the mess. Otherwise, my superior would have killed me.”

Hao Ren was floored.

This damn goddess was taking pride in it.

Earlier, the four woke up in the morning and were shocked to see the scenes in the world. But before they knew what happened, the goddess had brought them here. It was like a drowning man catching at a straw when they saw Hao Ren. They ran up to him, wanting to know what was going ons. Hessiana, especially, had gotten in a stew. “Hao Ren! What the hell is going on? I bumped into a group of World-World-Two German soldiers as soon as I went out this morning. It almost scared the hell out of me! I thought their souls were coming after me because I looted Hitler’s palace last time.”

It seemed that Vivian and her mini version had played a hand in helping the Allied forces in defeating Hitler last time. But Hao Ren’s heart sank when he thought of Vivian. “Calm down. listen to me,” Hao Ren said, interrupting Hessiana.

Hao Ren tried to explain the situation in layman term. The four in front of him were not stupid either. Even though Vivian was the root cause of the ridiculous and bizarre phenomenon, it was not hard for them to get the picture.

“Vivian dragged the earth into her memory?” Hessiana might not fully grasp the concept of what happened, but she was not entirely wrong about it. “You are going to get her back?” she asked.

“That is basically what happens. But I do not know yet how to go about it. I am waiting for the goddess to tell me,” Hao Ren said, pointing with his chin at Raven 12345 who stood at afar. “She said that you guys could help.”

Hessiana glared at Hao Ren. “How could this happen? Did you not look after her?” Hessiana demanded.

Hao Ren was cheesed off hearing that, but he felt like not to defend himself. Hao Ren knew how importance Vivian was to Hessiana, the reaction of the little bat was entirely understandable.

Hessiana’s self-control ability was surprisingly good though. After venting her frustration, she quickly calmed down. “I don’t blame you. It could be beyond your control. But let me ask you a question, and please tell me truthfully.”

Hao Ren had no clue what was in Hessiana’s mind. He looked at her curiously. “What is it?”

“Is the situation very that bad?” Hessiana asked while quietly looking at Raven 12345. The goddess was fiddling with the magic circle in the middle of the platform and seemingly did not care about what they were saying. “The goddess looks worried.”

“Bah, she is worried about her year-end bonus although she has gotten it before since taking office.”

Hessiana could not catch up with Hao Ren’s train of thought. So she might as well give up asking what he meant. “Would Vivian be blamed for that? It looks like something has to take the blame.”

It was a difficult question. But Hao Ren was determined. “Whatever it is, we must first get Vivian back. I personally think that no one should be blamed. Vivian is also a victim of circumstances. She did not knowingly release her power. If someone has to take the blame, that person should be the Mad Lord of the Plane of Dreams and some other guys. If any blame were to fall on Vivian, I would do my best to defend her. I believe that our goddess would not allow the innocent to become the scapegoat.”
