High-ranking mages surged into the three-story corridor, blocking the fleeing nobles behind them.

They were also trembling.

The magical aura emanating from Kesha surged higher and higher, and this unassuming siren, the only one in the Fallen Star Mission, displayed the power of an eighth-tier being.

The races of the sea only dared to wait for the sirens to naturally decline, and no one ever dared to challenge their dominant position.

The same applies to terrestrial species.

Kesha wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked disdainfully at the person who was trying to stop the bleeding from his severed hand.

“He said my lover wasn’t qualified to represent the siren, so I’m here to respond to him.”

Kesha looked around, every scale shimmering: "Now, who else wants me to respond?"

Someone shouted, "Does the Fallen Star Siren want to wage a full-scale war against the Empire? Can you bear that responsibility?"

Kexia glanced at Jiang Heyi, who was looking somewhat dumbfounded, and grinned.

"What he said was exactly what the Fallen Star Siren was thinking."

"Since there is no justice, the Fallen Star Siren shall seek justice for herself!"

Chapter 179 He's Mine

Did they hear it correctly?

How could the words of a human represent the vast Siren Kingdom?

A strange absurdity loomed over everyone.

Anger followed immediately.

First, Grenus was angered to death, then he was rebuked by an unknown human, and now the siren is actually injuring people in full view of everyone.

This is blatant contempt!

If this is indulged, where will the imperial dignity be?

"Get 'em!"

"Judge them!"

The sentiment is exciting.

The guards and high-ranking mages dared not make any rash moves.

With the Giza incident as a precedent, if another siren were to encounter mishap in the heart of the empire now, their names would surely be on the opening page of a new chapter in the history of war!

A royal messenger arrived hastily before the situation worsened.

"His Majesty has decreed that the meeting is adjourned and the delegation will be summoned at a later time today. Members of the Falling Star Delegation are requested to remain calm and return to their residences to rest."

As expected, the squeaky wheel gets the grease. If it weren't for the chaos in the council hall, Emperor Kurien, who was hiding behind the scenes, probably wouldn't have been able to show himself so easily.

"Your Majesty, even if you don't punish the siren Ksha, this human who spoke arrogantly and blasphemed the dignity of the empire must not be let off lightly."

"If we don't deal with him, what will become of the empire's reputation!"

Kesha yawned: "Oh dear, is it that serious? In that case, I'll reluctantly pay some atonement."

The nobles felt as if there was something in their throats, making it difficult to swallow.

The boomerang came a little too fast.

Just as friction was about to escalate again, at this tense and critical moment, the area around each person at the boundary between reality and illusion suddenly went dark, except for the light that continued to shine down from above them.

Like an actor in the center of a theater.

Everything and everyone outside the council platform came to a standstill.

Kesha continued to play with her tail.

Mint, standing at the boundary between reality and illusion, stared blankly ahead.

"Finally, it's our turn to find the bug?" the jailer exclaimed excitedly. "Give us some special compensation!"

As she rubbed her little hands together in bed, preparing to pinch Mint's cheeks, a dusty gray key appeared in mid-air and slowly drifted down.

The boundary between reality and illusion is staring at each other.

Was it dropped?

But why isn't it glowing?

Jiang Heyi reached out and grasped the key in his palm. In an instant, the key was enveloped in a layer of soft white light, as if it were draped in a layer of mist.

This is the first time I've seen something that didn't fall from within the sphere of light.

[Key to Fate]: "A key containing strange power, seemingly a special object prepared for those destined to be chosen."

As if an electric current had flowed through him, Jiang Heyi instantly understood the purpose of the key.

"We can choose one more time!" Jiang Heyi was overjoyed.

The blurred lines between reality and illusion collectively tilted their heads.

“This key can take us back to this very moment in the story.” Jiang Heyi pointed to the motionless “statues” around them, “This is the moment when the story was paused.”

The jailer rubbed his temples: "Wait, I'm a little confused..."

French Fries had already figured it out: "Let's call this part of the story 'The Capital's Turmoil' for now. Players may achieve different endings based on this story, and the rewards for each ending will be different."

Zhong Zemo also realized: "Under normal circumstances, players can only receive the reward once, just like the Great Snow Mountain."

The blanket suddenly clapped its hands: "So, we can complete one of the endings, get the reward, and then return to this moment to advance another possibility?"

Everyone was overjoyed when they saw Jiang Heyi nod.

This is a story-driven instance far more complex than the Great Snow Mountain instance, and the game likely features different rewards for each ending.

correct……

Where did this key come from?

Traditionally, dropped items are always surrounded by a glowing orb, and interactive objects in the scene will also briefly appear as glowing orbs after being picked up.

The key appears by suddenly pausing the game, and the element that provides a prompt after touching it is more like a hidden gift that has met special conditions.

The item description, "a special item prepared to suit the chosen one," seems to confirm this speculation.

"We're ahead in progress, there's no strategy guide, and the choices we make affect the final reward," Orange Tea said. "It feels like opening a blind box."

As Jiang Heyi and French Fries pondered, they glanced at each other simultaneously.

Previously, with Ke Xia hanging around Jiang Heyi, French Fries felt restless and decided to focus all his attention on the game's storyline.

Now that Kesha was frozen in the distance, the distance between the two instantly closed considerably.

Jiang Heyi coughed lightly, pulling his wandering thoughts back: "My suggestion is that we follow the game's existing guidelines step by step in this round, and see what rewards we get under the current relatively normal process. With that as a reference, we can be more extreme in the next round."

Fries also agreed with the suggestion: "The current progress is that Emperor Kurien wants to see us. With so much trouble in the council hall, he definitely won't sit still. He might talk about compensation."

He looked left and right from under the covers, then chuckled strangely.

"Husband and wife in perfect harmony, ah~~~~"

French Fries' face immediately started to burn.

Jiang Heyi was alright; with Ke Xia's persistent and enthusiastic offensive as a foundation, he actually developed some skills.

"I'm analyzing the plot for you guys, and you're all focused on this?"

"correct."

Everyone spoke in unison, even the orange tea drinker seemed quite self-righteous.

The blanket emphasized, "We're almost living together, don't be shy~~~~"

French Fries covered his forehead: "Move the plot forward, hurry up and move the plot forward!"

This can be considered as asking Jiang Heyi for help.

The moment the keys were put into the backpack, the spotlights that had been focused on everyone slowly spread outwards.

Under the light, the frozen figure, like a doll's shell, was brought back to life, its lifeless eyes lighting up one after another.

After a rapid flash, ripples spread outwards from the center of the council platform.

The frozen sound began to flow again, and the silent "theater" instantly boiled over.

"Ow~~~"

The blanket standing in front of Mint paid a small price for trying to sneakily pinch her cheek. Mint, who had just woken up, was walking forward, and because her body was slightly leaning forward, it was exactly a standard headbutt position.

The two men collapsed to the ground.

Mint covered her head, and the blanket covered her chest.

Poor Mint Mom had no idea how the bed had suddenly appeared in front of her.

In the distance, the calls for Jiang Heyi to be punished surged.

Unwilling to target the sensitive Kesha, the nobles decided to use this method to put pressure on the entire delegation.

"Human scum... Boom!"

"Ksha, how dare you!"

The high-level mage is late again.

The nobleman who insulted Jiang Heyi as a disgrace to humanity was slapped by Kexia's tail and tumbled into the crowd, knocking down several people who were also condemning him.

The high-ranking mage stepped forward to examine the person and was shocked to find that the arm of the person who had been directly hit was broken and the entire hand was bent at an odd angle.

"They are so arrogant..."

The chilling blue light was blocked in mid-air by the combined efforts of the Empire's high-ranking mages.

This time, her target was a duke.

This is the highest rank of nobility within the council hall.

Crazy, really crazy!

"Ksha, the Fallen Star Siren, the Empire's patience has its limits!"

“My patience has its limits. Anyone who curses him will face more than just injury. If anything happens to him, the royal court will surely declare war.”

"You Fallen Star Siren have gone mad, declaring war for a human!"

Kesha gracefully flipped and landed on the council platform, completely ignoring the fries next to Jiang Heyi. She squeezed forward, wrapped her tail around him, and the fierceness in her eyes faded, leaving only sweet affection.

"He is a distinguished guest of the Fallen Star Royal Court."

"He is also my lover... he is my destiny."

“By harming him, you are harming the unborn child of the Siren clan.”

As he spoke, Kexia quickly reached out and hugged Jiang Heyi, and before anyone could react, their lips met.

The boundary between reality and illusion and the Anna aristocracy presented two completely different reactions.

Everyone, including Mint, gaped open wide enough to fit two eggs.

French Fries was completely stunned for a while, feeling a buzzing in his ears.

As expected of a siren, she can easily say and do things that ordinary people cannot.

Jiang Heyi's mind went blank.

A pleasant fragrance wafted into my nostrils, and when our lips parted, there seemed to be a lingering scent of dried fish on my lips…

"He is mine," Ksha proudly announced to everyone present.

Even the jailer didn't dare to look at how interesting the fries' expression was.

Wow, that's incredible!

Even someone with extensive dating experience and a calm, collected mind will become a fan favorite after this combination of moves.

Sure enough, when the jailer looked over, Jiang Heyi felt his well-honed mentality crumble like sand and stones, and his face turned as red as blood.

What cyber potato? This is a cyber tomato!

The Anna nobles were also bewildered.
