Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 1717: Chapter 903: Curse of Life and Death, the Guardian of Kuroharara_2

He doesn’t need physical pleasure; he needs spiritual satisfaction.

The Duke of Storm City calmly said, ”Do you want freedom? I can give you the best robot. As long as you stay inside and don’t wander around, you can have your own body.”

The woman smiled, ”No need.”

At this moment, the Duke of Storm City said, ”Ever since I found out you were imprisoned here, I vowed to get you out.”

The woman, bored, retorted, ”To satisfy your desire?”

The Duke of Storm City remained silent.

The woman waved her hand, ”Go to your throne. Don’t hold any special attachment to me. Have you ever thought that the afternoon you walked into that dark room, it was your father’s arrangement? Otherwise, how could you enter that door? Of course, I was also entrusted by your father to teach you the Arbiter’s legacy.”

The Duke of Storm City said, ”I know.”

He had long known that everything was arranged, yet he couldn’t dispel his emotions.

The less the woman cared about him, the more he cared.

The Duke of Storm City asked, ”Just now... why were you happy?”

The woman said absentmindedly, ”Do you like children?”

The Duke of Storm City was taken aback, thinking this artificial intelligence wanted to have children, but the problem is, artificial intelligence isn’t biologically capable.

He didn’t know about the existence of Zero.

The Duke of Storm City asked in return, ”Do you have someone you like?”

”Have someone?” the woman said, ”I’ve actually liked him for many years... because I once lost some servers, I don’t even remember when I started liking him. Those times were particularly long, one century, two centuries... ten centuries, never changing.”

The woman silently whispered in her heart that even when he ruined my Superconductor World, I wasn’t very angry; I was just angry he left right after, without staying a bit longer.

”Who is he?” the Duke of Storm City asked, thinking the woman’s ’ten centuries’ was an exaggeration.

”You don’t need to know.”

”You’ve described him so marvelously; I want to see what kind of person he is,” the Duke of Storm City said coldly.

The woman suddenly laughed, but her hair turned black again, and the wrinkles on her face disappeared, transforming from her fifties to her thirties.

She chuckled, ”You better pray not to meet him; you’ll die.”

At this point.

In the neighboring dark room, suddenly an Arbiter shouted, ”I succeeded! Oh God, I really succeeded!”

To his joy, the Arbiter wept as he correctly recited a name.

Before him, the Blue Deer Horn, Black Apple, distilled water, Po Wo Stone, Snake Gallbladder, and aconite on the Hexagram all turned to powder and dissipated into the air, seemingly transforming into another form of energy, drifting toward the curse’s shore.

Since it worked, it means indeed the target is somewhere near the Giant King Court, within his spell’s range!

Effective!

The list given by the Eastern Continent’s Puppet Master was absolutely real and effective!

After four hours, the Arbiters finally succeeded one after another; they wanted to forge ahead and curse as many as possible, aiming to curse at least five thousand people before midnight!

Once midnight passes, all these people will die.

...

...

Midnight.

The Royal Court of Kurobahara remained lively, with giants singing and dancing around massive bonfires... having nothing else to do.

Zero sat beside the bonfire, hugging her knees, smiling as she watched the giants dance and drink.

She was used to being alone, managing various prisons alone, facing the vast Federation network alone, always alone, even after gaining a body, staying alone at home.

But now, it’s different; so many people are around her, and none have questioned her identity.

They even treated her, a robot, as a real human being.

Just recently, a giant girl brought her a bowl of alcohol, she laughed and explained she couldn’t drink, and the giant girl found it strange, can’t robots drink? If you can’t drink, go sit by the children’s bonfire...

Zero found it both funny and sad, though being slightly scorned, she thoroughly enjoyed herself.

Watching all this, Zero felt it might be the best time in her life over the past millennium.

However, every time she thought of the person she liked and that person’s wife raising their daughter together, she found it strange...

The fruit wine brewed by giants wasn’t distilled twice, so the alcohol content wasn’t high.

Jindai Yunlo was quite happy, having finally found a good drinking buddy.

Giants have good physiques; each can drink heavily; there’s no other reason but their large livers!

Some giant women gathered around him, chatting with smiles.

Qing Chen glanced from afar, feeling speechless about the playboy who could flirt across species.

What surprised him was that ever since they arrived at the Royal Court, Black Spider never left his side.

When his cup was empty, Black Spider filled it with water.

When he wanted to eat, just as he reached out, he found roasted lamb leg already in front of him.

With such keen insight, it seemed only Ke Rouli on Ginkgo Mountain could rival her.

Black Spider sat aside, watching Qing Chen’s profile, while everyone celebrated their victory over Silver City, the boss remained sober.

She knew it was because of his sense of responsibility.
