Miss Witch's Speed ​​Run Manual

It looks like we're already in the second half.

Charles raised his eyes and glanced around, his pupils shrinking slightly.

Qiang Yin, Windsor, Lafayette, Mond, Lucy, Seraphim... There were also a large number of nobles and people he didn't know, wearing the costumes of the Church of the Goddess of Savior or the Church of the God of Order.

No? Why are they all here?

Charles suddenly became nervous. At this moment, Tara's delicate and slender voice sounded behind him.

"Lord Ciel, are you drunk? Do you need me to take you to your room to sober up?"

Charles looked back at Tara and saw Tara raised her hand towards him, her left eye opened and closed quickly, and she winked, as if hinting at something.

"Okay... take me there."

Charles raised his hand and placed it in Tara's palm. Only then did she realize that she seemed to be wearing a dress and opera gloves made of white silk.

Did the thing... finally come to fruition?

Why does it feel like I'm making dumplings right before the New Year when I get here?

225

Chapter 225: Qiang Yin’s endless ambition.

Tara carefully took Charles' hand and walked into the mansion, temporarily away from the fun outside.

There was no hesitation in her steps, as if she knew exactly where she was taking Charles.

Soon, Charles was brought to a more remote guest room. She pushed open the door and led Charles in.

There seemed to be a person sitting inside, completely shrouded in black, even her face was covered with a black veil. If it weren't for her ladylike sitting posture, it would be impossible to tell the other person's gender based on her appearance.

When the man saw Tara coming in, he stood up, bowed slightly in Tara's direction, and said respectfully: "Teacher."

"I've said this many times, Ms. Percy, you don't need to call me teacher. You are much more knowledgeable and experienced than me."

Tara first replied to the other party, then turned to look at Charles and said, "Lord Charles, this is the person you asked me to introduce. She arrived today."

"You are good at what I am weak at, so I can call you my teacher."

Percy looked at Ciel, lowered her head slightly, and said, "Hello, my name is Percy."

Although she couldn't see Percy's specific appearance, she seemed to be able to feel that Charles was extraordinary from Tara's attitude towards him, so she also maintained respect for Charles.

Charles also smiled and nodded, saying, "Good evening, Percy."

"By the way, Lord Ciel."

Tara picked up a package in the room, handed it to Charles, and then said, "This is what you asked me to give you."

Charles raised his hand and took the package handed to him by Tara. After opening it, he found several bottles of potions and a notebook inside. The moment he saw the notebook, Charles slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

Qiang Yin was at the banquet outside at this moment, and Xia Er didn't dare to speak casually - she knew that the extraordinary people on the "Performer" path were extremely sensitive to sound, not to mention a level 4 strongman like Qiang Yin.

Maybe any words they said now were being monitored by Qiang Yin - Qiang Yin was too close to them.

Ciel didn't want to be arrested by Qiang Yin before accomplishing anything in this simulation, otherwise she would be forced to leave this simulation and wait for the next opportunity.

Tara and the woman named Percy were waiting on the side, as if waiting for Charles to speak about the follow-up matters, but Charles was not in a hurry. Instead, he quickly flipped through the notebook.

July 18th, 5:00 PM

Tara has secretly sent a letter, but with the time it takes for the other party to arrive, it will probably take until dinner time at the earliest... The good news is that the Saint hasn't died so soon. The bad news is that I have to find another way to control Mond.

I'll start with one plan, then use the "Subverter" save to come up with another plan, and then pick the one that makes the most sense to execute.

July 18th, 11:00 PM

[Damn it… I just opened the “Sage Mastermind’s Toy Box” while under the influence of the “Subversive” potion, and the side effects are only now making me recover…]

At the time, I was thinking, since I couldn't come up with a more effective plan, I might as well use the simulation to figure out the properties of my currently "strongest" seal and see if it could be put to use. It seems to have actually worked... but in a negative way.

I pulled out a strange golden insect skeleton from inside. It seemed to be made of some extraordinary material. Just touching it made my whole body itch unbearably. I almost relied on Avina's hypnosis to get through these few hours. If it weren't for Avina, I would probably have scratched my skin all over...

This seal cannot be used, at least not in combat. Who knows what strange things will appear inside it.

[But one thing is true, this thing does need to be studied in simulation. At least we need to find a way to make it useful - if the system isn't lying to me.]

I got the "Disruptor" plan.

[First, brainwash the Chaos Squadron members who haven't been captured yet, making them believe that the person they are contacting is Mond, and have them start to frequently contact the members of the Savior Goddess Church - at least make the members of the Savior Goddess Church familiar with their disguised identities.]

[Then, use the "Subverter" archive to find Mond directly and have the "Subverter" archive brainwash her into believing that she is the key holder. Then exchange the scepter and the holy covenant for her and let her complete the feat of church integration.]

[Of course, there must be a bit of "personal gain" mixed in, which is to make Mond think that he is trying to spread the "rotten plague" in Anzu. This will not only arouse panic among the people, but also anger the Savior Goddess Cult and even make the royal family furious.]

[It's almost foreseeable that if things continue like this, it will definitely be a huge explosion... But this isn't a reasonable plan, it's just something the "disruptor" saved for fun.]

So I made some changes to the original plan.

Ciel turned the page.

This was very much like what a "disruptor" would do. As she planned, the plan went in the direction of explosion. The more chaotic it was, the more excited she became - Charles understood this very well, because she had experienced that emotion several times.

Charles continued reading.

[The previous steps can be retained, but in the middle, I will contact Lafayette directly through Mond to see if I can use the "Subverter" to defeat her spirit... I consulted Avina about this, and Avina thinks it would be safer to bring her along.]

The "Instigator" route is strong in influencing groups, and can easily trigger large-scale riots, but it's not easy to directly control a single person, unless you know her inside and out, and accurately grasp her weaknesses, driving her crazy—like the "Keyman" before—but the purpose of the plan is not to drive a single person crazy.

[But the "Listener" is different. This path is not good at influencing groups, but it is good at using mental power to influence individuals. When Avina was at level 1, she was able to seal Nia's memories of the other world, allowing her to live longer. Now that she is at level 2, she can help.]

[As long as the "Subverter" can weaken her spirit in advance, Avina can take advantage of the opportunity and modify Mondstadt's memories and dreams]

Then, I can use Mond to get close to Lafayette, repeat the same trick, modify her memory, and make her help us. Finally, before Qiangyin reads his memory next time, I can directly tamper with the memory in the "parasitic brain" and make him believe a fabricated, fictional flashback.

I'm a professional at fabricating flashbacks... because we've actually experienced dozens of flashbacks.

The only difficulty lies in creating a scar on Qiang Yin's face... a permanent wound that won't heal.

[But I don't have much time. Including the 24 hours since you arrived, I only have a little over three days left. I have to use a more extreme method to complete it.]

I decided to use the remaining destiny points to maintain the "Subverter" archive, creating a most accurate dream composed of multiple flashbacks for Qiang Yin.

[At the point where he enters the dream, cooperate with Lafayette to create scars on Qiang Yin's face while he is trapped in the dream...]

[This is definitely much more dangerous than snatching food from a tiger's mouth. I hope I can accomplish it.]

Although I know a lot of information about Qiang Yin now, it is far from enough. I must make sure that Qiang Yin cannot find any flaws.

I want to know if Lafayette knows anything.

A bold plan... and no guarantee of success.

This is Charles's evaluation of the plan.

Using dream abilities on a level 4 is an absolutely difficult task.

The main difficulty lies in the ability of the 4th level... Whenever Qiang Yin uses his ability in a dream, he will definitely feel the weakening of his own strength - Charles cannot simulate the specific power of Qiang Yin in a dream, this is something only he knows.

The only solution Charles could think of now was to deal with the crisis in a way that was too overwhelming for him to handle, but which did not require Qiang Yin to handle personally.

The other world is a good entry point.

Sure enough, after seeing the back of the notebook, Charles's thoughts were confirmed by his own behavior in the simulation.

In the following time, the simulated Charles brought Avina and Tara directly to Mond. The whole process was recorded in detail in the notebook for Charles's reference.

The process of controlling Mond was unexpectedly smooth. A level 3 transcendent whose identity was exposed was really no match for the "Subverter". Moreover, the "Subverter" Charles could also create things that had happened in the simulation as dreams, torturing Mond severely.

And Avina took advantage of the situation and modified Mond's memory according to Charles' wishes, adding a memory of herself as the key holder out of thin air.

Even how to replace the key person, how to kill the real key person, and then take over her identity were engraved in Mond's mind, and then he deleted the memory of Adele and the assistant.

This is loosely based on what Ciel experienced in the simulation, and is realistic enough to be indistinguishable from the real thing.

Because these things really happened...just in another time.

However, the control over Lafayette almost led to trouble.

The brain of this "newborn" was actually backed up by the "parasitic brain", which almost allowed her to perceive the correct memory.

But fortunately, there was no danger, and the location of the "parasitic brain" has been marked out. Just remember to modify it in real life.

And from Lafayette, Charles unexpectedly got more information about Qiang Yin.

Lafayette is actually Qiang Yin's adoptive mother... This "newborn" actually lived longer than the 4th-level strongman Qiang Yin. The "newborn" method played an indispensable role in this. In theory, it is impossible for a "newborn" to have failing organs.

The only thing that can cause their death is their spirit... This is why Lafayette is helping the Church of the God of Order to research "artificial godhood".

No wonder Qiang Yin trusts Lafayette so much that even the most important memories are at Lafayette's disposal.

With this identity, the subsequent plans were implemented much more smoothly.

In the simulation, Charles used the "Subverter" archive and Lafayette's assistance to guide Qiang Yin into the arranged dream.

In the dream, Qiang Yin was still living a normal life. Whether it was meeting with ministers or meeting the queen, Charles could simulate it very well... until the "key man" Mond suddenly took action in the dream.

In the dream, Mond had the brainwashed people of Chaos Squadron come to the Church of the Savior Goddess with the Pope's Scepter and the Holy Covenant, and started the plan of sect integration.

All of this was noticed by the "wise" Qiang Yin. In his dream, he relied on the "information gap" to notice Mond's actions - Qiang Yin believed that only he had the clues left by the backtracking, while the key man did not.

Almost as soon as he was sure that the key holder was Mond, Qiang Yin launched a killing operation, but when he came into contact with Mond, Mond revealed the truth about his "uniqueness", and then directly opened the blood formation and summoned the dark insects.

In the dream, the sky collapsed and the earth broke apart, and giant dark insects spread fear and chaos. These details were simulated vividly by Charles.

But here comes the key.

When the dark insect saw Qiang Yin, it stopped.

He seemed to see through Qiang Yin's brain and see the uniqueness in him.

Afterwards, Dark Bug directly opened the door to the other world, allowing Qiang Yin to see the other side of the door. A strange figure holding a silver pocket watch in his left hand said that Qiang Yin had taken away his things and he wanted to take them back.

The immense oppression and fear almost caused Qiang Yin's spirit to collapse - the reason for the collapse was that the real Charles was really staring at him with the Super Nemesis, and the Dark Worm Eyeball and the other world in the dream were just Charles's real projections.

This made Qiang Yin choose to leave a mark and then commit suicide - he chose a way to preserve his mental strength and go back.

This directly leads to the second level of dream.

In the double dream, Charles in the simulation directly let Qiang Yin obtain the method to enter the other world from Lafayette, which allows Qiang Yin to temporarily enter the other world for a period of time and obtain "uniqueness".

He who "knows everything" directly let Lafayette control the "Key Man" and let Lafayette and a "Soul Walker" manipulate the "Key Man" and obtain the "real information" of the other world and the method to summon the other world from her modified memory.

That is, after entering the other world, the "uniqueness" will attract each other. As long as the strong sound appears in the uniqueness, the "pocket watch" will definitely be attracted to him, and the two "uniqueness" will fall into a short dormancy until they are combined together again.

None of them knew much about "uniqueness," so Ciel could make it up at will.

Qiang Yin in the simulation directly used the method left by Charles to open the door to the other world and summoned Xiao Zuo.

She also wanted to try and see if she could really kill Qiang Yin with the other world.

In the second dream, Charles summoned Xiao Zuo directly in reality. He used the flesh and blood that Qiang Yin had removed during his sleep, his own blood, and Qiang Yin's fingers to summon Xiao Zuo, and let Xiao Zuo drag Qiang Yin into the other world.

This instantly shattered Qiang Yin's dream, but his strong spirit prevented him from going crazy in the other world. Under the mental pressure of the other world, he almost burst out with terrifying power, crushing Xiao Zuo, and almost forced himself to pass through the door to the other world and return to reality.

This time—he really returned to reality.

The gate to the other world became the node connecting dreams and reality, allowing Qiang Yin to smoothly transition from dreams to reality.

Qiang Yin returns to reality, surrounded by the controlled "Key Man" Mond, Lafayette, the door to the other world that has not yet been closed, the real experience of the other world, and the terrifying whispers of the other world in his head.

He asked Lafayette to call Windsor and read the revised "correct memory" again, as well as the watch chain still in his mind and the other part of the "uniqueness" in his memory...

Qiang Yin completely believed it all.

Ciel closed his notebook and let out a slow breath.

So... the strong voice outside is the strong voice that has completely believed in everything?

Just reading the contents of the notes, Charles felt as if he had experienced it all himself.

As long as the "pocket watch" does not appear again, until Qiang Yin begins to doubt the authenticity of the pocket watch, he will not take any more actions against the key man. Instead, he will devote himself to Lafayette's research on the other world.

It looked like he had everything under control.

But in fact, they were all lies carefully woven by the simulated Charles.

"That's okay..."

A slow smile played on Ciel's lips.

The risks Adele exposed and the threat of strong voices have been temporarily resolved...

But why did Qiang Yin appear at the banquet?
