The Black Book: Seven Deadly Sins
Chapter 127 - 127: Flashback

Good, good, good...

Are you playing a memory trick?

If you want to talk about this, then I'm not sleepy anymore!

Just wait for me to digest my attributes, and I'll ambush your house every now and then!

Grinding his teeth, Zhu Haomiao coldly curled his lips into a smirk.

Like the other descenders, he originally didn't plan to delve deeply into the changes of the local natives' world line, maintaining a detached, carefree attitude.

At most, he thought about messing with the Japan General during Jiawu, skimming a little from the Imperial Army.

The main goal was still to plunder and collect Qi Fortune.

But now, Joseph Cristo's words stirred up many unpleasant memories for Zhu Haomiao, injecting a strong sense of involvement, making him a bit heady.

He had habitually considered the Japan General as the first mortal enemy, resorting to "little idiot" when uncertain, a muscle memory thing...

But now, thinking carefully, in this era, Little Britain is the real bastard!

The thing is, its presence in future generations is too low, often playing the clown as the shame of the Five Permanent, making people overlook its past great betrayals...

But it's important to know, now it's the late 19th century, when The Sun Never Sets Empire is at its zenith!

If each country is seen as a personified whole, then Dai Ying is the sole main character of the world for two hundred years!

A veritable Long Aotian!

Joseph Cristo, such a Child of Destiny, Dai Ying definitely has more than one or two!

So...

What if we kill them all...

The Empire falls, Heavenly Destiny collapses...

Fast forward to Cao Pi... No, fast forward to the shame of the Five Permanent!

With a flutter in his heart, Zhu Haomiao licked his lips, his eyes glinting with excited greed.

But soon, Zhu Haomiao realized that with his current Silver Level small body, wanting to counter-kill even the dominance level [main character]?

Daydreaming!

So... still need to endure!

Wait until I secretly develop for three years, then when Dragon King returns, no more endurance, I'll shark them all!

Unconsciously tilting his mouth into a grin, Zhu Haomiao was deep in thought when he suddenly heard discussions.

"Disarming them from a military perspective alone is useless..."

"This civilization has a strange centripetal cohesion, long divided must reunite, long united must divide..."

"They have a peculiar mentality, on one hand, inferior, but deep down there's a hint of pride, sometimes they even look down on us, thinking we are barbarians!"

"They are still immersed in the dream of the Heavenly Dynasty, it's time to wake them up."

"We must let them know that inferior races cannot compete with superior ones!"

"Exactly, we have to break their spine, make them like the peasants of Bharat, kneeling obediently to listen."

"Actions on the cultural and social front should also unfold slowly, I previously had a newspaper under my control, wrote an article about the sick man of East Asia, it was quite effective, generating widespread discussion. I think we can have them dig deeper, reflect on the Qing people's inferiority, forming theoretical support."

"Agreed, I also have a few newspapers under my control, let's form a narrative together, on one hand, promoting our elegance and nobility, on the other, belittling their ugly inferiority, making them willingly kneel as dogs!"

"These wild, hard-to-tame yellow-skinned monkeys must be well-educated ideologically! Let them know what is superior civilization!"

"Oh, weren't they proud of their traditional martial arts? How about we find some people to challenge them?"

"Hey? That's a good idea, crush their pride one by one, and see how stiff they can remain?!"

......

In the whispers of discussions, a group of great betrayers of Britannia quickly formed conspiracies and schemes in political, military, economic, cultural, and other aspects.

An informant listening on the side, eyes slightly squinted.

No informant!

Continue, with a strong sense of involvement, already getting angry!

Waited until their discussion was almost over, Joseph Cristo stood up to make the closing remarks.

"Our time is limited, five years!"

"At most five years!"

"We must dismember this country and incorporate it into the Empire's territory!"

"For this, we are willing to cede vast benefits to other powerful countries!"

"After five years, the Empress will be crowned, annexing the world's oldest, most orthodox, and most powerful Chinese Empire!"

"The Empire will continue to ascend!"

"Britannia will eventually rule the world!"

With that, Joseph Cristo clapped his hands, a group of attendants filed in, serving glasses of champagne to everyone present.

Then, Joseph Cristo raised his champagne, surveying the room, and lifted his fine wine high.

"For the queen!"

In an instant, everyone raised their glasses, shouting in unison.

"For the queen!"

............

After a slight dizziness and weightlessness, consciousness detached from the container, returning to the body.

Lying on the bed, Zhu Haomiao slowly opened his eyes with a meaningful smile, softly murmuring in a voice as thin as a mosquito.

"For the queen!"

Rising slowly, Zhu Haomiao raised his hand to grasp emptily, a dark, heavy book materializing in his hand.

Following the young man's will, the [Book of Black] automatically opened, revealing data on its Illusionary Page.

[Greed]: LV.5

[Jealousy]: LV.4

[Anger]: LV.5

[Gluttony]: LV.4

[Lust]: LV.4

[Sloth]: LV.4

[Pride]: LV.4

Since stepping on a Japan General last time, the Seven Deadly Sins have grown explosively.

However, aside from the most basic attribute gains, the more important authority changes haven't had the opportunity to be tested.

The capital for causing trouble is still noticeably insufficient, unable to deliver a diverse blow to Dai Ying and little idiot, let alone other indigenous powers eyeing covetously...

At least advancing to dominance level is needed, possibly to disrupt an empire single-handedly...

Before that, he can only engage in small skirmishes, stealth attacks...

Thinking of this, Zhu Haomiao touched his stomach.

After [Gluttony] advanced to LV.4, the four-dimensional stomach's capacity increased further, he can now really eat a few cows in one meal!

Plus, digestion ability also improved, meaning the same food can provide more nutrition...

Also, there seem to be other wonderful uses waiting for him to explore.

And [Sloth]...

Furrowing his brow to keenly sense, after a long while, Zhu Haomiao's eyelids twitched slightly.

Can the digestion speed of [Pupation] and [Deep Sleep] stack?

Not just that...

Zhu Haomiao suppressed his heart's racing, looking at the Illusionary Page in the [Book of Black].

The next second, countless gray-white threads spread from the void, wrapping around the young man once again.

Simultaneously, a golden light shot from the [Book of Black], slowly merging with Zhu Haomiao's gradually forming [Pupa Shell], disappearing into the depths of his spirit and body.

A fierce weakness enveloped his body and mind instantly, Zhu Haomiao moved his limbs unnaturally, taking a long time to adapt to the weakened spirit and body.
