Pretending To Be A Boss

The Throne of God.

As the most mysterious fortress in the world, a place that can only be reached through teleportation fractures, even Constantine has not discovered the true location of the Throne of God.

He could not observe the Throne of God from the outside. Sometimes he even wondered whether this place, along with its region, was somewhere in the mining area.

Constantine sat quietly on the Throne of God, feeling the new information flowing through the ring.

"God" cannot descend directly into this world.

As an apostle of order, he is the most supreme person within the Pyramid hierarchy.

The new Son of Order had yet to be selected, and Constantine did not rush to take over Origin or the Eye of Order.

This was Ju Mang's talent reserve, which was not short of individuals capable of becoming the Son of Order. However, these people had been neglected for many years.

Constantine planned whether the method of power distribution needed to be reformed. He gently fiddled with the ring on his little finger, secretly thinking that since he had become an Angel Envoy, he no longer needed the Son of Order.

Excessive power distribution would only cause unnecessary strife. It would be better to choose a compliant dog from the human camp.

His gaze fell on the Li residence under the watchful eye of the surveillance.

"Indeed, a cunning old fox who can stay calm," he murmured.

In the midst of numerous people's anger and questioning, Li Wanye always stayed in his study. A fortress lord who had weathered many storms was naturally not acting out of cowardice.

Li Wanye understood that events of such magnitude would naturally be resolved by more powerful beings.

It's like when the world of mankind is about to be destroyed in the Bible, God would send down the ark.

But now the Ark Fortress has become the Holy Land Fortress, and the lord of the Ark Fortress has exposed the sins of God. Therefore, God must intervene with strong measures.

This was Li Wanye's thought.

It was the first time Constantine knew that not only he himself but also the Judgment Knights could regain consciousness from mechanical states.

Among the additional information in the ring was this message:

[Judgment Knight's will infusion, enable/disable?]

Since his childhood discovery of the Throne of God and seeing God, Constantine knew his body had undergone an irreversible change. Most of the time, his will belonged to himself; at other times, it belonged to the kingdom of God.

God is insane, craving life yet mechanizing it.

If the wills, awareness, beliefs, and so on of the Pyramid residents were likened to a program, this program was now continuously producing errors due to viruses like Tang Xian and Song Que.

This way of correcting errors was due to the fact that the error involved the most core code — people's trust in the Pyramid.

Therefore, the corrective method could not employ force like the expulsion of Tang Xian.

God chose an incredibly gentle approach. Thus, on this day, Constantine gained an ability; he endowed these machines with souls.

As Song Que's supporters grew in number, and as the anger around the lands intensified—

The Judgment Knights sealed at the top of each fortress began to awaken.

…

…

Inside a giant television tower, images that shocked the populace were broadcast. The moment the bronze-garbed Judgment Knight appeared, both Song Que and Yu Xiaozhe had an ominous premonition.

"What's going on? Why have all the global information channels changed to this?" Yu Xiaozhe looked at Lin Sen.

The time was the fifth day after the Ark Fortress meeting.

Lin Sen did not respond but hurriedly began contacting media from other fortresses.

In Lincoln Fortress, they had found several medium-sized media outlets willing to report the truth.

But it took a few seconds for Lin Sen to slowly turn around, his expression one of surprise as he said:

"The network of the Holy Land Fortress… seems to have been completely taken over; I have lost control over it, and now there's no response no matter where I try to connect. Not just the internet, but the communication networks have been cut off too, damn it! Not a single phone call can get through."

Song Que and Yu Xiaozhe exchanged a glance, alarm and gravity apparent in their eyes.

"Zhuo He made managing the Holy Land Fortress convenient precisely because he didn't want any information leaking from it. The bottom five levels lack network access, but the sixth level has always maintained stable contact with the outside world.

If even this level's information channels are blocked, then it could only be due to one thing — we've been informationally isolated," Yu Xiaozhe said.

"The question is, who would isolate us? Who dares to isolate us? The direction of public opinion now is all about exposing the lord's sins and the Pyramid's evil secrets. The person doing this..."

Lin Sen suddenly fell silent.

After a long period of quiet, Song Que spoke slowly:

"Whoever is targeting us, it won't be the Li family or the Federation; they don't have that capability. Tang was right; it's not time yet. To make everyone aware of this vigilance, it's too early to return to the original world."

"What do you mean?" asked Yu Xiaozhe.

Song Que said with some helplessness:

"Look at the Judgment Knights on the television tower, they should have no consciousness, merely serving the owner of the ring. But now they have come to life, and everything we've said is doomed to fall apart by itself."

The voices of the Judgment Knights inside the television tower sounded peculiar, but viewers could imagine it was a normal consequence of "people" dwelling within bronze armor.
