Chapter 129: The Genius with the Overactive Imagination and The Freshie Inmate Leader
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Fang Ning did not go directly to Anderson with his questions . Mind you, he was not Sir System the Dumb; this was a being with an Evil Alignment that they were dealing with . If it was some other unimportant issues, the repercussions of getting cheated were still manageable . However, this was something in relation to his two other identities . How could he ask Anderson without any precautions? How could Fang Ning put enough trust on Anderson and believe that they would not try to cheat or bring him harm?
Hence, Fang Ning turned into his dragon form and came back to the System Prison .
Anderson piped up as soon as he went in . "Oh, you should be the prison officer that the warden mentioned previously, no? Hm, how opulent this place is to let a juvenile of True Dragon be a prison officer . Wait, no, no… You're Vigilante A! The one before this is just your servant!"
Fang Ning was shocked . Did Anderson just realize that his dragon form and his human form were actually the same person?
Anderson's tone was one of absolute surprise when they were halfway through their sentence . However, at the end of it, Anderson started laughing, and it soon became a proud chortle .
"I never imagined… I never expected that the powerful, almighty, infamous Vigilante A that my Spiritual Slash failed to harm was actually the spiritual sense of a juvenile True Dragon!"
F*ck! Fang Ning's expression dropped immediately . This was the first time someone actually exposed the relationship he had with Vigilante A . This Anderson really had an amazing cultivation in spiritual sense! Thankfully, he managed to regain his composure after he continued to listen to Anderson's narrative . In the end, he realized that Anderson just had an overactive imagination…
"No wonder you could descend this early despite being a True Dragon . No wonder you had to hide in this special space, and spend so much effort to study human AI technology and use your spiritual sense to control the combat AI chips outside of this body . I understand everything now! The Venerable Dragon God and White Dragon were all just an illusion! You're the juvenile True Dragon spiritual sense that was controlling the two beings!"
Anderson kept on laughing, as if they just solved one of the biggest questions they had . They seemed to have relaxed immensely .
"I've always been wondering, how could a True Dragon with such a high Power Level and Strength be able to descend so early into this realm? At this stage, the realm was far from suitable for a True Dragon to breakthrough and descend . The atmospheric vitality and the strength of the Barrier was way too low! However, once I could sense the form of your spiritual sense, everything fell into place!"
"The True Dragon clan must've sent a juvenile True Dragon down to make preparations . In order to prevent any accidents, they even prepared such a valuable portable space equipment for the juvenile spiritual sense to hide . "
"No wonder only spirits and souls could enter the place, and any living beings would die immediately upon entry! It's because it's not designed to let living beings enter, so that the spiritual sense of the juvenile True Dragon will not be endangered!"
"Hahahaha, I am the only one who knows the real identity of the Vigilante A! I am the first one, the only one, and the last one!"
Ma Dechun piped up, "There's three of us who knows it, Anderson . Elder Feng and I are the other two . "
Elder Feng grumbled, "Nope, only the two of you know that . I couldn't get even one card out during Landlord just now, so I've chosen to completely give up and allow a takeover . I've slept for a long time now, so I didn't hear anything . "
Anderson looked at Ma Dechun, "Ma Dechun, why don't you repeat yourself? What did you hear just now? Elder Feng, help me interrogate him in your Arcane Soul Realm . "
Ma Dechun immediately spluttered, "No, no, don't hit me . I didn't hear anything . No matter now or in the future, only you, Anderson, knows the real form of Vigilante A…"
Fang Ning, who listened to all this at the side, stood speechless . Evil knew no boundaries indeed . None of these people have even a sense of shame .
Even though the being managed to see through the real relation between himself and the external body, Fang Ning no longer felt surprised after he heard everything . Anderson was smart, but in this instance, they were too smart for their own good…
Anderson's behavior had proved to Fang Ning that the dragon form and the human form were two different living beings . There was no need for him to even ask .
The perfect version of Dragonization Ability was indeed impressive . Even someone as intelligent as Anderson would believe that Vigilante A's true identity was his white dragon form, and thus categorize his human form as another being .
Since Anderson had misunderstood the situation, Fang Ning would of course lead them further down the path .
"You're bright indeed . Still, what use would you have if you finally understand all of this? I could kill you with just a wave or a pinch, destroying your soul and spirit entirely . Then, you will be the final three people who knew my true identity . "
When Anderson heard the explicit threat against their life, they no longer behaved like a preening peacock . Instead, they took a much gentle approach . "Apologies, Your Excellency the True Dragon, I would usually lose myself in glee whenever I manage to solve a great question of mine . "
"You could easily defeat me despite being just a juvenile True Dragon . Your potential was unimaginable! In the future, you will most definitely achieve the level of the greatest of heavenly beings or demons . I am willing to contribute all of my experience and intelligence to be your follower, Your Excellency . "
Fang Ning was stunned . Even if they were speaking the truth, they still had an Extremely Evil Alignment! Would they pass the System's evaluation? That would be impossible! A System with a Martial Arts System would never let it pass . The System even had a Hero Mode installed!
The System Notification soon confirmed Fang Ning's guess .
[The System managed to coerce Anderson, a figure of Extremely Evil Alignment with its strong ability and terrifying death threats . Anderson has decided to pledge loyalty to the System . Anderson's qualification is way higher than the System's minimum requirement, but they were unable to become the System's follower due to the severe contradiction of their Alignment and the System's chivalrous virtue . ]
Now that's correct . Fang Ning nodded stealthily after he read the System Notification . It was proven that Anderson was not lying, else the follower notification would've never been triggered . This meant that he could now stop worrying . If it came to it, he could use his human form to register 'Fang Ning' as an Extraordinaire . Fang Ning has used his dragon form when he last verified his identity in the game .
Of course, he would only do so if it was absolutely necessary . He was too lazy to be bothered to register his true identity as an Extraordinaire! His real identity had no need to cultivate at any official organization anyways . If he were to switch his identity frequently, Fang Ning might just mess it up one day…
Even if the System did not approve Anderson as a follower, Fang Ning could still agree to their request verbally in order to fully utilize their value . Since Fang Ning was not the System and was free from the chivalrous virtue's restriction, Fang Ning would only need to keep himself wary and not be influenced to do any evil deeds .
Even if he was influenced, he wouldn't be able to actually carry it out anyways . His physical body was controlled by Sir System, so he could forget anything that was against the chivalrous virtues of the System .
After he laid it all out in his mind, Fang Ning started to speak in a light voice, trying to sound mysterious and powerful . "I'll grant you the opportunity to follow my footsteps after I've witnessed your outstanding intelligence . Now, you are officially the leader of the inmates here in the Draconic Penitentiary . "
Elder Feng nearly went green with regret when he heard that . He never expected Anderson to be his superior even in death! He should've been more proactive . Besides, surrendering after defeat is the gweilos' tradition, so it was nothing unusual if they jumped ship and followed a new master .
Anderson nodded . "Draconic Penitentiary . An apt name for a hellish prison like this . I declare myself as the best in the world when it comes to spiritual sense, but I still couldn't escape this place . I could only use a very limited amount of skills related to spiritual sense . It definitely lives up to its name . I would definitely assist you and manage this Draconic Penitentiary in an orderly manner, Your Excellency, and I would never allow any inmates to escape under my watch . "
Fang Ning answered, "Rest assured that no one will be able to escape this place . Since you managed to preserve some of your skills in spiritual sense, I will no longer restrict your usage so you could better manage the evil souls that arrive . "
"I have a task for you . Since you're skilled in spiritual sense, you will think of 18 different spiritual sense punishments for the newly established Draconic Penitentiary . After you filled in the gaps for these punishments, it will be easier when it comes to giving the evil souls their due penance . Then, we could exert justice by punishing them based on their past crimes, and we could also deter them from causing trouble here once they understand the powers of the Draconic Penitentiary . "
Anderson answered, "Don't worry, Your Excellency, I'll come up with 18 different types of spiritual sense torture as soon as possible . I will assist you in better punishing the sinners . "
Elder Feng and Ma Dechun both trembled in fear at Anderson's words . They knew clearly how powerful Anderson was during the games of Landlords . They could already see a road of pain and sufferings before them in the future .
Before the two could snap themselves back from the terror, Fang Ning had already turned to leave . With Anderson managing the Prison as the leader of the inmates, Fang Ning could worry much less about it . Now, he could finally go back to analyze the external situation .

The System gasped, "Host, you're indeed amazing . You could even trick a thoroughly Evil being like Anderson into becoming your coolie . "
Fang Ning smirked, "It's nothing much . You're much more powerful as the assault party here . Without you, I would never have a place to utilize my speaking skills as a commander . "
[The System is evaluating…]
[The System is evaluating…]
[The System is evaluating…]
[The System has decided to go and fight for justice…]
Fang Ning was speechless . "You scared me . I thought you're going on a rampage again . "
The System explained, "I wanted to go and capture more Extraordinaire criminals . I would never want your recently established Draconian Penitentiary to be too shabby, honorable commander . "
Fang Ning smiled . "Mm, you're much more obedient now, good System . Go and do a good work, your commander needs to watch more news and make the important decisions . "

At the opposite side of the ocean in where green grassed line the Earth and Birch trees scattered in a beautiful courtyard, a Caucasian woman clad in a long white dress was walking on the grass, a fat black cat cradled in her arms .
"Tom, tell me, had that d*mned Anderson really gone and died?" The woman whispered as she petted the black cat . The black cat slept in her arms lazily, but its whiskers started twitching as if it was trying to sense something in the unseen void .
After a moment, the black cat's lips started moving . "Anderson's soul has completely disappeared from this world, and it's impossible for him to return . I leveraged on the Soul Connection we had previously and managed to sense a vague last message from them . Apparently, their soul is now in some hell, and they seemed to have become a small officer in that hell . There's nothing left after that, so they probably have completely severed the Soul Connection they had with me . "
The Caucasian woman's face lit up with a small smile as she spoke . "Judging from how evil they were when they were alive, they deserved their place in hell . It was natural that they could become an officer as they were indeed very capable . Unfortunately, Anderson was still responsible as the public relations officer for most of our technical projects . From the new recruits that joined us, attracted by our ideals, who do you think could take Anderson's place?"
The black cat considered for a moment . "An Asian named Motomatsu . He is slightly less talented than Anderson, but has a better integrity and more upright personality than his predecessor . Motomatsu could replace Anderson, and could even help in fixing the Global Power Balance Association's reputation . "
The Caucasian woman nodded . "Alright then . We shall train him well, and slowly mold him to take Anderson's place . Anderson has always caused problems to his superiors as he was too powerful to control, and I always had the thought of getting rid of him . Vigilante A had helped me out in that . Coincidentally, Vigilante A was also a lone wolf, and it was obvious that he wanted to establish himself as well . If the opportunity ever comes, we must inform him of our appreciation…"
The black cat said, "We should really support him, yes… Meow, beautiful lady, do halt your steps . I am Tom, and I want to talk about the meaning of life with you . "
A white aristocratic cat padded her way on top of the courtyard fence, strolling proudly and full of grace . The black cat immediately leapt down from the woman's arms when it saw the white cat, and chased after it with its round, fat body .
The Caucasian woman was left speechless in its wake .
