Then let them offer their loyalty!

But judging from the fact that she immediately closed her eyes and began to focus all her efforts on breaking through the "Divine Realm of Punishment," it was clear that a sense of crisis had been rekindled in her heart.

Qiu Tu had no time to guess Zhao Ji's thoughts. Who knew how many traps, magic arrays, or backup plans were hidden in the "Silver Armor Captain's" mansion? Therefore, he had to replace the "Silver Armor Captain" as quickly as possible to make everything seamless.

So he sneaked into the house and threw the "Silver Armored Captain" into the "Punishment God's Domain".

After doing all this, Qiu Tu's appearance slowly changed, and he soon transformed into the "Silver Armored Captain".

Sitting on the bed, Qiu Tu began to conduct a normal interrogation and torture of the "Silver Armor Captain" in order to gather the intelligence he needed.

Soon, as the "Order Space" unfolded again, the "Silver Armor Captain" seemed to have taken a "truth serum" and began to answer every question.

Soon, he himself began to tell Qiu Tu all the information about the "Silver Armor Captain".

His identity was perfectly fine; he wasn't a spy, nor did he have any other identity—just an ordinary Imperial Guard captain responsible for the daily security of the "Tyrant's Palace."

This job is both important and unimportant. It's important because as a close advisor to the "tyrant," one not only represents the "tyrant's" trust but also, in public, the "tyrant's" reputation.

The less important thing is that... the average strength of the Imperial Guard is "God-level". If a God-King comes, it will be difficult to stop them. They can only do routine guard work.

The reason he was able to become the Imperial Guard Commander was because he was a direct descendant of the "Destruction Tyrant," an orphan of the Destruction God adopted by the "Destruction Tyrant," and had been raised and nurtured by the "Destruction Tyrant" since childhood.

After learning about the basic information of the "Silver Armor Captain", Qiu Tu asked about the topic he was most interested in.

"Do you come into contact with 'Princess Star and Moon' in your daily work? Do you know her?"

However, the silver-armored captain in front of him gave Qiu Tu a completely unexpected answer.

Under the control of the "Order Space," he stared blankly at Qiu Tu, then said in a flat voice, "She's my girlfriend..."

Qiu Tu:? ? ?

Chapter 877 Taking the Place of My Boyfriend (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

To be honest, when Qiu Tu was listening to the conversation between "Silver Armor Captain" and his girlfriend, he also guessed the identity of "Silver Armor Captain's" girlfriend.

However, based on the fact that the "Silver Armored Captain" wanted to bring some new things from outside the city to his girlfriend, including the fact that the "Silver Armored Captain" said he was too busy with work to visit her, he always thought that the "Silver Armored Captain's" girlfriend was some goddess queen living outside the imperial city, and that the "Silver Armored Captain" could only see her after he finished his work.

As a result, when the silver-armored captain said that "Princess Xingyue" was his girlfriend, Qiu Tu suddenly realized that Princess Xingyue was currently being controlled by the "Destruction Tyrant" due to special circumstances and could not contact the outside world at all.

Therefore, she must be very lonely, bored, and bored.

That's why the company of the "Silver Armor Captain" is needed, along with some novel gadgets to relieve boredom.

Actually, if things had come to this point, everything would have been perfectly normal.

Princess Xingyue and the Silver-Armored Captain were just an ordinary couple.

Qiu Tu's actions tonight were an unexpected bonus, allowing him to use his identity as "Silver Armor Captain" to make contact with "Princess Star and Moon" and begin his infiltration and investigation.

However... Qiu Tu has been deeply involved in the secret front for so long, and his greatest strength lies in capturing details.

He hadn't forgotten that when the "Silver Armored Captain" was on the phone, although his voice was affectionate and patient, his brows were actually furrowed, his fingers were tapping impatiently on the windowsill, and his expression was somewhat cold and even a little impatient.

This is clearly different from the normal way young couples interact.

Combined with the identity of "Princess Star and Moon", Qiu Tu immediately felt that there was something fishy about this.

Thinking this, he couldn't help but look at the "Silver Armored Captain" who was being controlled in front of him, his eyes shining slightly: A big fish!

With this in mind, he changed his usual simple questioning approach and started seriously interrogating the enemy about information by having them act out the "stand-in" method he had learned in the "Punishment God Realm" based on the external situation.

"Name."

"Wei Lin".

"age."

"121 is old."

"gender."

"male."

"The true level of strength."

"Late stage of Level 4 God King".

"What is your true relationship with Princess Xingyue? How did you two get together?"

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Wei Lin, the "Silver Armor Captain," said listlessly, "She is my girlfriend."

"I was adopted by His Majesty at a young age and trained as a personal guard. Therefore, I have always lived outside the 'Tyrant's Palace.'"

"Xingyue was a very lively girl, so she often ran away to the outer city when she was little. Her maids would often come to the outer city in a panic to look for her."

"Once, when she was hiding, she bumped into me by accident, and that's how we met."

"After that, she would come to the outer city to play from time to time, and I would train while looking forward to her arrival."

“When our daughters are raised as protective relatives, they get some pocket money when they're very young. I always save it up and use it to buy her some new and interesting treats and toys in advance…”

"Is this what you humans often call innocent childhood love?" At this moment, as Qiu Tu quietly listened to Wei Lin recount how he met "Princess Star and Moon," Zhao Ji's cold voice rang in his ears.

Qiu Tu turned his head to look over.

Before anyone knew it, Zhao Ji had come to his side and stood there, arms crossed, listening quietly to Wei Lin's story.

Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu smiled and glanced at her, saying, "I don't think so."

"No?" Zhao Ji turned to look at Qiu Tu, somewhat puzzled.

Qiu Tu hummed in agreement, pointed at Wei Lin, and then said, "Tell me why you're saving up money to buy a gift for 'Princess Star and Moon'."

Wei Lin is currently under the dual control of the "Order Space" and the "Punishment God Realm," making it impossible for him to hide anything from Qiu Tu and Zhao Ji.

So, with his eyes vacant, he said without hesitation, "To please her and make her like me."

"She is His Majesty's daughter, someone who can stand at the pinnacle of the 'Destroying Royal Court' simply because of her bloodline."

"As long as I can win her favor, I can climb to the top little by little with her help."

Qiu Tu shrugged and smiled at Zhao Ji.

Zehime: .....

Qiu Tu looked at Wei Lin and continued, "So, over the years, have you received any help from 'Princess Star Moon'?"

Wei Lin: "Of course."

He said, "Although His Majesty is a man of great talent and ambition, apart from the eldest princess and the second prince, his other children are just byproducts to him. But... since they are His Majesty's children, how could they be lacking in resources?"

"Knowing that I am ambitious, Xingyue has been secretly giving me her resources over the years to help me improve my skills and get promoted."

"After I was promoted to a Celestial God, she also found someone to help me get into the Imperial Guard, so that I could get more resources."

"Thus, through my own efforts and with her help, I rose all the way to the fourth level of God King, became the Imperial Guard Captain, and gradually took control of this most important military force guarding the imperial city."

Upon hearing Wei Lin's words, Qiu Tu thought for a moment, then astutely pointed out a problem, "In that case, wouldn't you two be a perfect match, even more suitable to be together?"

Why do I sense that you seem somewhat resistant to "Princess Star and Moon" now?

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's question, Wei Lin replied blankly, "Because... Xingyue once subtly mentioned her marriage to His Majesty."

"But His Majesty said she could not get married."

"She pressed for an explanation, but His Majesty did not offer one. Instead, he told her directly that she had no choice."

"After learning about this news, I thought I would sneak around and find out more."

"As a result, before I could even begin to investigate, His Majesty discovered my affair with Xingyue. His Majesty had a close attendant convey a message to me. He gave me two choices: one was to leave Xingyue, in which case he would take care of and mentor me; the other was... death."

"Of course I wouldn't choose 'two,' so I chose 'one.'"

Before Qiu Tu could react to Wei Lin's words, Zhao Ji frowned slightly.

Wei Lin continued, "However, I certainly don't want to offend Xingyue, so I asked His Majesty to give me some time to completely sever ties with Xingyue."

"As a result, before I could completely sever the Star Moon, something happened to it."

Upon hearing Princess Xingyue's information, Qiu Tu's interest was immediately piqued. He leaned forward slightly, interrupting Wei Lin, and asked, "Something happened? What happened?"

Wei Lin said, "In order to get His Majesty's approval for her to be with me, she volunteered to go to the 'Chaotic Western Capital' to integrate the deities of destruction within it."

"But who knew, something happened, and he died in the 'Chaotic Western Capital'."

Upon hearing Wei Lin's words, Qiu Tu and Zhao Ji exchanged a glance and then remained silent.

Wei Lin continued, "I originally thought that the matter was resolved at this point."

"But who knew, a week later, Xingyue suddenly contacted me again."

"The moment I received her message, my hair stood on end. I didn't even know who she was."

"What surprised me even more was... when I asked her what had happened in 'Chaotic West City,' she had absolutely no idea. She didn't even know she had been to 'Chaotic West City.'"

"but!"

Even though Wei Lin was already controlled by the "Order Space" and the "Punishment God Domain", his body still trembled slightly with excitement, and his tone was also somewhat erratic.

He said, "I personally escorted her away from the 'Royal Court of Destruction,' and before she went to the 'Chaotic Western Capital,' she even discussed our plans for what would happen after we arrived there."

After listening to Wei Lin's words, Qiu Tu looked at Zhao Ji and asked, "Was your memory erased? Or is it a side effect of the 'undead' being reborn?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ji pondered for a second, then shook her head slightly. Clearly, there was very little information about the "undead," and even she didn't know the underlying principles.

Seeing this, Qiu Tu looked at Wei Lin, then continued gathering information, "So, from then on, you noticed something was wrong with 'Princess Star Moon' and started gradually distancing yourself from her?"

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Wei Lin hummed in agreement and said, "Yes."

"Moreover... I've discovered that she is indeed somewhat special among His Majesty's children. It seems she's involved in one of His Majesty's grand plans."

"Just like after she was resurrected, she was put under guard and not allowed to go anywhere or contact outsiders."

"No one except those of us who know of her existence is allowed to see her."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu thought for a moment and tentatively asked, "Do you know the relationship between the 'Undead,' the 'Three Immortal Giants,' and the 'Star Moon Princess'?"

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Wei Lin remained silent for two seconds with a blank expression, as if searching through memories related to these two topics.

After a moment, he shook his head and said, "I know nothing about 'the Undead,' nor do I know anything about the 'Three Immortal Giants' being interested in the Star Moon."

"However... during this time, the Earth Soul God King, one of the 'Three Immortal Giants,' secretly arrived at the 'Destruction Court.'"

Hearing Wei Lin's words, Qiu Tu couldn't help but feel somewhat disappointed.

In retrospect, Wei Lin is exactly as Zhao Ji described: a classic hypocrite and a heartless man who abandons his wife. From the very beginning, he approached Princess Xingyue only to use her, and after he was done with her, he discarded her without a second thought.

Moreover, perhaps fearing it would affect his future, Wei Lin didn't even bother to find out or inquire about what had happened to "Princess Xingyue".

You could say he's a complete scumbag. No... calling him a scumbag is an insult to Qiu Tu, that scumbag himself.

At this moment, perhaps sensing Qiu Tu's emotions, Zhao Ji turned to look at Qiu Tu and said calmly, "Compared to him, you are like a gentleman."

Qiu Tu:? ?

For a fleeting moment, Qiu Tu couldn't quite tell whether Zhao Ji was praising him or mocking him...

After learning this important information about "Princess Star and Moon", Qiu Tu continued to interrogate Wei Lin for other information and details.

To be honest, Princess Xingyue was truly devoted to Wei Lin. While the position of Imperial Guard Commandant wasn't considered high-ranking or powerful within the "Destroyed Royal Court," it was certainly not to be underestimated.

Especially its powers: the freedom to move within and outside the imperial city, and the ability to adjust the deployment of the imperial guards—these were highly sensitive powers. Generally, only those whom the tyrant trusted implicitly could hold this position.

However, this also created a lot of convenience for Qiu Tu.

After replacing Wei Lin, Qiu Tu was also able to move freely inside and outside the imperial city and visit "Princess Xingyue".

In particular, Wei Lin's ambiguous relationship with "Princess Xingyue" makes it even less likely for him to arouse suspicion when he contacts "Princess Xingyue" or investigates her affairs.

More importantly, the Imperial Guard Commander was a confidant of the "Destroyer Tyrant," so Wei Lin's name was useful in various departments. Among them was the "Shadow Department," which was also directly under the "Destroyer Tyrant."

Don't forget, the "Shadow Division" is a large prison that holds all sorts of God King criminals.

Therefore, Qiu Tu could have taken Zhao Ji to the "Shadow Division" without anyone noticing, and then helped Zhao Ji improve her strength by killing those God King criminals, which would have been a win-win situation.

Thinking this through, Qiu Tu suddenly realized... he didn't seem to need to continue replacing anyone.

Although Wei Lin's position wasn't particularly high, it was exactly the most suitable for Qiu Tu.

Considering his relationship with "Princess Xingyue"... Qiu Tu thought about it and made up his mind: for now, he would take Wei Lin's place and be Princess Xingyue's boyfriend!

It's a good time to improve my strength with Zhao Ji, and also use my identity as Wei Lin to make contact with "Princess Xingyue" and see what the Destruction Tyrant and the three immortal giants are up to...
