Chapter 265 - Raiden Shogun's Doubts

Tenshukaku.

"What?! The Visions on the statue are gone?!"

Turning around expressionlessly to look at the person reporting, the Raiden Shogun's tone was extremely cold.

She had not expected that there would be someone so audacious as to steal the Visions from the statue.

This is a threat to Eternity!

They must be captured immediately!

"Y-Yes, Her Excellency, the Shogun... the Visions on the statue... are all gone."

Not daring to lift his head at all, the reporting soldier's heart rate accelerated.

He was truly worried that Her Excellency, the Shogun, would simply cut him down with a single slash.

"All gone?!"

After saying this, the Raiden Shogun walked straight towards the location of the statue, while the soldier kept his head lowered from start to finish, not daring to look up.

However, after a moment, he felt he had to follow, so he hurriedly stood up and caught up.

Statue of the Omnipresent God.

"Heavens, just who is so bold as to steal all the Visions from up there?"

"So many Visions... How were they stolen? Weren't there soldiers guarding nearby? How on earth was this done?"

"Maybe those soldiers stole them themselves..."

"It must be so..."

"Then aren't they afraid of Her Excellency, the Shogun's divine punishment?"

"Who knows..."

Cordoned off by a large group of soldiers, a considerable number of people were gathering around the Statue of the Omnipresent God, making all sorts of guesses.

It had to be said, the theft of the Visions from the statue had caused quite a stir among everyone. They really found it hard to imagine that so many Visions could be completely stolen overnight.

Not to mention, there were many soldiers guarding the surrounding area.

So, after a moment of discussion, everyone felt that it was those soldiers who had committed an inside job; otherwise, it would be impossible for such a thing to happen.

"Her Excellency, the Shogun... Her Excellency, the Shogun is here."

Just then, someone in the crowd suddenly said this, and the surroundings instantly fell silent.

"Make way, make way, do not block Her Excellency, the Shogun."

Accompanying these words, the crowd parted to form a path, and the Raiden Shogun walked through it to the front of the statue.

Of course, at this moment, it was no longer the puppet Shogun in control, but the true Raiden Shogun.

On the way over just now, Ei, inside the Plane of Euthymia, had learned what happened and came out to inspect the situation.

They are all gone...

Who on earth possesses such strength?

Looking up expressionlessly at the empty statue, Ei couldn't help but think this.

And more importantly, the fact that the Visions on the statue were missing wasn't discovered by anyone until daybreak.

How was this done?

"Did no one notice anything abnormal last night?"

After watching for a while, Ei, still looking at the statue, asked this question.

Because there were many soldiers guarding this place, She was not asking any single individual.

Or rather, all the guarding soldiers were the subjects of Her inquiry.

However, regarding Her question, not a single soldier present answered.

For a moment, the surroundings were terrifyingly quiet.

"So, there was nothing."

Seeing no one answer, Ei spoke again with little emotion.

"Yes, Her Excellency, the Shogun."

At this moment, a person who looked like a squad leader immediately knelt down, and seeing this, the other soldiers also knelt down one after another.

To be able to take away all the Visions from the statue without alerting a single person...

This...

How exactly was this done?

Paying no heed to those soldiers, Ei kept thinking about this question in her heart.

Truth be told, if someone had forcibly snatched the Visions from the statue, that would be one thing, but the actual situation was not so, which puzzled Her greatly.

It had to be said, She had not been this puzzled for a long time.

And more importantly, this was clearly someone challenging Her Vision Hunt Decree.

Although the Vision Hunt Decree was not promulgated by Her, but by the puppet Shogun She created, She was aware of it and had tacitly approved it.

Could it be an hallucination?

At this moment, Ei suddenly thought of a possibility.

After all, to steal the Visions from the statue so silently, the only method She could think of was trapping people in an hallucination and then stealing the Visions.

However, regarding such an ability, She recalled that only that Dendro Archon from Sumeru possessed it.

But as for the Dendro Archon, there was absolutely no reason for her to interfere with Her nation.

"Do not continue wasting time here. Search the entire city immediately. I want to see those stolen Visions as soon as possible."

Thinking no further, Ei left after leaving this command.

She knew that facing the mysterious person who stole the Visions, it was basically impossible for these soldiers to gain anything, but there was no other way; right now, She could only do this first.

Moreover, since the other party stole so many Visions, then subsequently, the opponent might come to find Her, the Raiden Shogun.

So, She would wait for a while.
