Chapter 264: Strong Mental Pollution Main Storyline Revealed

Chapter 264: The Severe Mental Pollution Main Storyline is Revealed

As dawn broke, Wu Yue stopped writing.

She handed the paper to Shen Que and opened her eyes, revealing bloodshot eyes with veins bulging unnaturally.

With the arrival of dawn, the entire castle fell silent again.

Those who had stayed in their rooms all night opened their doors, suddenly feeling a sudden gust of wind rushed past them.

Jiang Qian immediately barged in with his team. "Move quickly! Get the treatment pod ready now!"

With the Jiang family's assistance, Wu Yue was promptly placed into the treatment pod for psychiatric treatment.

That night, two deaths and three injured, with two others also needing pod treatment.

"Well, well, look who we have here—isn’t this Prince Noah Squire?"

"Hey, don’t say that. He must be ashamed of his noble status now. Who knows what his late parents would think."

"Why so quiet, Noah? Who are you guarding here? Could it be that commoner who got Duke Lino killed on purpose?"

"No need for treatment. A commoner who murders a noble will just be executed anyway."

Jiang Qian and Jiang Mubai exchanged glances.

Jiang Qian remarked, "Duke Lino had it coming by shooting his mouth off at the banquet. Mrs. Leah killing him was his own fault."

"How dare you Jiang family members speak like that?!"

Jiang Mubai added, "People die in dungeons, it's a normal occurrence. But if you nobles are too fragile, you should leave now."

"Save yourselves the shame of wanting the Jiang family’s rewards without contributing anything."

Jiang Qian recalled, "I remember you all cowered in your rooms all night, too scared to step out. When Duke Lino died, you didn’t even squeak—almost like you were all mute."

"Now that the dungeon’s over, you’ve suddenly recovered? Congratulations, it’s practically a miracle recovery."

Jian Suiyu arrived slightly later and saw Wu Yue in treatment, with Shen Que standing nearby, his head lowered and expression unreadable.

Jian Suiyu knew that look all too well—Shen Que was ready to slaughter everyone present.

Wu Yue’s mental state seemed severely damaged, and Shen Que’s favorite pastime was dragging everyone down with him.

Preferring self-preservation, Jian Suiyu subtly inched back, not wanting to get caught in the line of fire if a fight broke out.

Jiang Yuhua, noticing Wu Yue’s condition and the surrounding noise, scowled.

"What’s going on? Why isn’t the treatment area kept absolutely quiet? Who let all these unwanted chatterboxes in?"

"Miss Jiang, how dare you speak of us nobles like that!"

Jiang Yuhua snapped, "Throw these self-styled nobles out—along with their treatment pods."

"The Jiang family dares to disrespect nobles?!"

Jiang Yuhua sneered, "The Jiang family has solid proof that Grand Duke Vlad, the highest authority of the royal court, has been systematically seizing the assets of martyrs’ descendants and persecuting those who made immense contributions on the frontlines."

"He has completely betrayed his promise of protecting the families of fallen heroes!"

The Jiang family has issued a warning to the Alliance Parliament, demanding that Grand Duke Vlad must publicly appear within seven days to provide a formal response.

Otherwise, his status as the supreme ruler of the royal court will be revoked, the royal court will be abolished, and the entire noble faction will be reshuffled.

The rights and privileges of nobility should belong to the descendants of martyrs and those who truly deserve them, not to sniveling schemers."

With the Jiang family's iron-fisted stance, the previously arrogant nobles immediately fell silent, their shifty eyes darting around.

Jian Suiyu and Fu Yanqi exchanged surprised glances. To be honest, the direction of this matter was eerily similar to the turmoil Zhou Qianfeng had once stirred within the Daoist sects.

Factions that once had nothing to do with each other and were independently governed were gradually converging under Wu Yue's influence.

Just as the nobles were about to sneak away, they suddenly received a communication:

"Hey! I heard someone advanced the dungeon progress last night and entered Mrs. Leah's room, unlocking the main storyline!

But the Jiang family deliberately cut the live feed after she entered the room. It's obvious they never intended to share information with us!"

"Exactly! They’ve been treating us like disposable pawns, never planning to give us any rewards. All that talk about that oil from the ancient castle was a scam!"

The crowd exploded into chaos. Fueled by the fear of the previous night and the manipulation of public opinion, distrust toward the Jiang family had reached its peak.

"Disclose the main storyline information! Otherwise, we’re leaving immediately!"

Jiang Qian responded, "The Jiang family did not intentionally conceal the main storyline information. At the time, the Mental Pollution levels in the live stream had severely exceeded safe limits, posing a risk of Mental Pollution leakage. The system automatically shut down the broadcast function as a precaution."

"Bullshit!"

"Who would believe that?!"

"I heard the one who entered the main storyline was just an A-level psychic fighter. If she could handle it, how the hell couldn’t I, an S-level, withstand it?"

"Exactly! If they won’t disclose the main storyline, I’ll just go ask this A-level psychic fighter myself what she saw!"

"I heard she’s the one in that healing pod."

"In the healing pod? I always said an A-level psychic couldn’t possibly face an SSS-level Boss head-on. She’s probably already corrupted and slipped out.

I’m opening that pod to check right now!"

Seeing that some were actually daring to approach Wu Yue’s healing pod, both Blaze and the Jiang family instantly had their faces go cold.

Shen Que let out a soft chuckle. His overwhelming psychic energy exploded outward like a shockwave, crushing everyone present under its weight.

Slowly rising to stand before Wu Yue’s pod, Shen Que said, "Captain Jiang, let them see the recording of Wu Yue entering Leah’s room."

After whispering briefly with Jiang Huaizhi, Jiang Mubai confirmed that Jiang Qian’s claims were true and understood just how dangerous that broadcast really was.

Jiang Huaizhi frowned. "But what if they—"

Shen Que tilted his head, rolling his neck. "Don’t worry. If anything goes wrong, not a single one of them walks out alive."

He would make sure to kill every last one of them.

Jiang Huaizhi scrutinized Shen Que, who curled his lips into a sinister smile.

"Don’t worry, Captain Jiang. Just pin it all on me when the time comes.

But information costs—100 S-level crystals per viewing, personal access only, beamed straight into your mind. The footage self-destructs after watching."

"The crystals will be directly transferred to the recipient's account—no freeloaders allowed."

"100 S-tier crystals for one viewing? That's way too expensive!"

Shen Que sneered, "Blaze doesn't do charity cases."

If you're so eager to see, pay up and watch!

Jiang Mubai was utterly exasperated—some people just can't be saved from their own stupidity. The Jiang family's goodwill was tossed aside like trash!

Jiang Mubai said, "Direct neural feed is no joke."

"If even Blaze's captain agrees to make it public, why is the Jiang family still unwilling?"

"Exactly! The Jiang family's money-grubbing is disgusting!"

Jiang Huaizhi ordered, "Give it to them."

Jiang Mubai was shocked, "Really? I just scanned this footage—it has an S-grade Mental Pollution level!"

"An S-grade Mental Pollution just from watching? Yeah right!"

"Right! And if the footage alone has S-grade Mental Pollution, the actual scene must've been at least SS+. That A-grade would've flatlined long before making it out for treatment!"

Seeing their smug faces, Jiang Mubai was about to shout—it was Wu Yue!!

If it weren't for Wu Yue, whoever went in would've been dead meat!!

But faced with their arrogance, Jiang Mubai decided to give them exactly what they're asking for and directly played the system-redacted portion of the main storyline.

"Buy the footage?"

"WARNING:

Disclaimer: Video purchase and playback are entirely at the viewer's discretion. Consequences are borne solely by the individual and hold no liability to the Jiang family or the information provider!"

"I accept."

"Play."
