Mecha: Return of the Pioneers

Chapter 878 The real purpose of the Ghost Face Group!

Facing the accusation from the witch Gretel, J. Puppet Master showed no emotion and just sat on the ground calmly.

"Ask! I will tell you everything I know."

Such a straightforward attitude made the witch Grete frown slightly.

Unexpectedly, the other party did not respond to his show of force at all and instead went around him directly.

"Gretel. The Ghostfaces are not beings that will be easily frightened. Moreover, the puppeteer in front of you may not be the one you remember."

Witch Mei placed the pipe in her right hand on the table, changed her posture, leaned against the back of the chair, squinted her eyes slightly, and looked at the Ghost Face members sitting on the ground.

"The name you used to have means nothing to you. Because your body has long since decayed."

The puppeteer laughed and admitted it frankly.

"As expected of the witch who controls time. That's right! My body has long since decayed, and the body you see now was given to me by that master."

"Which sir?"

He Ming, who was standing next to the maid Lian, had a flash of golden light in his eyes, and quantum waves in his brain began to surge.

Just this short sentence has revealed that there seems to be a higher-level existence above the Ghost Faces.

I'm afraid that the undercover agent who was tortured by Embrio has never thought of this?

"That lord? That's interesting news."

The witch Gretel had a cold expression on her face, and she focused her gaze behind the puppeteer.

As she focused her eyes, she saw silk threads extending from the void connecting to the puppeteer's body.

However, these silk threads were suppressed by some force and appeared exceptionally quiet.

"A first-level member, or the one who created you, the Ghost Face Clan?"

The witch Mei stroked the smooth table top carefully, as if she was drawing something.

"Yes. That sir is the great existence who created us, the Ghost Face Clan, and is also the great sage who guides us to take revenge on those sinners who abandoned us and this star sea to this place, where we have been tortured by the abyss and countless star sea civilizations have been ruthlessly devoured by the flames!!"

"Great Sage?!"

Witch Gretel's expression changed and she looked at Witch Mei.

At this moment, the two witches had guessed the purpose of the Ghost Face Group, or what the ultimate goal was.

“How could it be so?”

When the existence of the Ghost Faces was first discovered, Witch Mei and even the Super Dimension Fortress's main control AI Velos believed that these mysterious beings were trying to use the technology left over from the past war that almost destroyed the Star Sea in order to subvert the Star Sea and achieve the goal of destroying the world.

However, this guess is both correct and incorrect.

Because the puppeteer in front of him actually revealed the ultimate goal of the Ghost Faces and even the mysterious existence standing behind them, which was to target them and take revenge on them.

The witch Mei suppressed her surprise and sneered.

"Your purpose is surprising, but they have already left this sea of ​​stars. I'm afraid..."

"Hahahahahaha!!"

Before Witch Mei could finish her words, the puppeteer suddenly laughed wildly.

"I didn't expect that the witch who controls time would open her eyes and tell lies. Do you think we will believe it?"

The corners of the puppet master's mouth curled up, and his smile was cold. "We know it! They have appeared again! And the successor they identified has also appeared in the world!!!"

Witch Mei's expression changed and she slammed the table with her right hand.

Chains suddenly shot out from the void, binding the puppeteer's entire body tightly. Even the silk threads that fell from the void and connected the puppeteer were entangled by numerous chains, completely locking him in the time trap constructed by the witch.

The puppeteer continued to struggle, and seemed to be shouting something, but was eventually dragged into the endless river of time by the chains and disappeared.

Silence fell at this moment.

No one said a word.

Only the witch Mei picked up her slender pipe again and slowly turned it in her palm.

After a long while, the witch Mei slowly spoke.

"What do you think, Willos?"

[The credibility is 75%. According to the clues revealed in the other party's words, the person who created the Ghost Face Group is probably the descendant or successor of the two super powers back then.]

"Descendant, successor?"

Witch Mei sighed slowly and looked at Gretel.

"What about you? As a witch, shouldn't you have some ideas as well?"

The witch Gretel shook her head, a rare look of confusion appearing on her face.

"I don't know! They are too far away from us now. In fact, I doubt that among us, except for you, the Witch of Time, no one can get the opportunity to face them directly."

As she spoke, a trace of worry gradually appeared on the face of the witch Gretel.

"Besides, many strange phenomena must have appeared in the Star Sea one after another. And these phenomena will only become more and more in the future until a certain moment comes. Although I don't pay too much attention to the things in the Star Sea, in the past, the Tahuangjia clan seemed to have become active."

"Regarding the Tahuangjia clan, it seems that they have witnessed at least two miracles in the past few years."

Facing the temptation from Witch Gretel, Witch Mei nodded slowly.

"Yes. The rumors are true. Miracles related to them have appeared not only in the core area of ​​the Tahuangjia clan, but also in the Morning Wind Elves clan and all over the Star Sea."

After getting Mei's recognition, Gretel did not feel happy, but felt more and more stressed.

"It seems that the future is becoming more and more confusing. You, the witch of time, have you already witnessed all of this in the long river of time?"

In the air filled with smoke, the witch Mei's face gradually became blurred and ethereal.

"Maybe! Velos, I remember that the Tahuangjia clan announced a message to Xinghai in the name of the Tahuangjia Elders Council not long ago, right?"

[Yes. The Tahuangjia Elders announced that they have found the successor of them - the prophet left in the Star Sea, and are preparing to reveal the identity of this successor at the Flower Birthday Ceremony to be held by the Morning Wind Elves.]

Hearing this, Witch Mei smiled slightly, then snorted coldly.

"This is good news! It seems that Tahuangjia can't wait any longer!"

[A warning signal has been sent to the Morning Wind Elves! Based on the intelligence just obtained and the movements of the Tahuangjia tribe, there is a high probability that the Ghost Faces will launch an attack on the Flower Birthday.]

"It's not a high probability, but 100 percent."

Witch Mei moved her gaze and looked at He Ming, who was standing beside the maid Lian and remained silent.

"After all, the successor designated by the prophet, who is hated by the Ghostfaces, will personally attend the ceremony on the Flower Birthday."
