“Well, I did put a small shield on your mind.

But that's not for dealing with the Omniscient Monster, but any monster in the game."

Manager Hei Bai paused and continued.

"You must have known my situation. Most of the monsters in the dungeon were imprisoned by me. Some of them were trapped in the dungeon because they fought and killed each other.

Day after day, year after year, this kind of resentment and hatred is enough to distort the mind of an ordinary person. Not to mention NPCs like you who frequently enter the game, even players have been driven crazy by dungeons.

Since I've asked you to do something, I must of course give you adequate protection."

"Please," Manager Hei Bai's words were really polite, Rong Lele thought.

In fact, the reason why she was so proactive in offering help to the manager was to get permission for the following:

"Manager, I have another unwelcome request. Can I use some of the items I obtained in the game myself?"

Rong Lele felt a little nervous after asking this question.

The Crimson Heart is obviously not an ordinary ghost. The aura on it surpasses that of the Ghost God. Rong Lele is worried that it is the Heart of Pluto.

If that's really the case, then how can she get Manager Black and White to agree to let her use the Scarlet Heart to save Xiaoxue?

Unexpectedly, the other party laughed and said, "I think you are talking about a specific item.

If I'm right, it's the heart you brought from Blood Weld Factory."

Rong Lele nodded in shame. If this happened in an ordinary company, it would be a clear case of misusing public resources for personal gain.

"I can pay for this," she said, her right hand clenched in her sleeve. If Manager Black and White disagreed, she could use [Hidden Space] to escape, then quickly hide in the dungeon and use up the heart.

Cut first and then play.

Unexpectedly, Manager Black and White continued: "Okay."

"What?" Rong Lele was shocked for a moment. After all, she was ready to resist.

Manager Hei Bai said, "Of course. My old boss, Hades, has passed away. He gave me the power of rules to establish order in the underworld.

It is precisely because I can control the power of rules that I cannot approach the other powers of Hades, that is, the remains of Hades that you have heard of...”

Rong Lele suddenly realized, that's what it was.

When Pluto fell, he gave the most important authority - the power of rules - to his subordinate Manager Black and White. However, Pluto also set up a safety net. What if Manager Black and White embezzled money?

So the insurance is: Manager Black and White cannot use other Pluto bodies.

"You are so smart, you must have understood it. That's why I didn't take advantage of the information gap and collect all the remains from the beginning. After all, I am the closest to Pluto.

However, they allowed the remains to be fought over by monsters, leading to the chaos in the underworld today.

Because I can't, I can't sense them or get close to them, their existence and the power of rules repel each other.

I can only wait until those monsters have seized some of Pluto's power, and then imprison him, so that the power can be controlled within a controllable range." Manager Hei Bai's tone was somewhat helpless.

“I can’t guarantee that there won’t be someone who slips through the net and steals part of the divine body. This is something that cannot be prevented.

So if you need something, take it. At least you are reliable," he said.

Rong Lele was a little touched. As a boss and a subordinate, Manager Hei Bai could be said to be the kind of person who was easy to get along with.

As a boss, he is very considerate of the needs of his subordinates and will strive to provide them with benefits and opportunities for advancement within the scope of his authority.

As a subordinate, he was entrusted by the former Hades on his deathbed, but at the same time he was given a protection - he could not get close to the other powers of Hades, which would cause the difficulty of his guarding the underworld to increase exponentially.

Anyone who is given an insurance policy by their boss in this situation would probably feel helpless.

But he was just helpless for a moment. Rong Lele could feel the respect in Manager Hei Bai's tone for the former Pluto.

And this does not mean that Pluto does not trust Manager Black and White. On the contrary, only when he has great trust can he entrust the power of rules to him.

It is just a necessary procedure to separate the power of rules from other strange forces. After all, power is the most corrupting thing for people, whether they are humans or monsters.

"How long will this situation last?" Rong Lele thought of another point.

Manager Hei Bai spoke approvingly: "You are indeed smart. Yes, the power of rules cannot be used to maintain the horror game all the time.

The order of the underworld cannot always be maintained by humans.

One day the underworld will return to its own order. And that time will be when a new Hades will appear. "

"A new Pluto? How did he appear?"

"When someone or a monster gains powerful strength and is recognized by the power of rules," he said.

Powerful force... Rong Lele understood this very well. If she wanted to become the next Pluto, she must at least be able to suppress other monsters.

There are two possibilities: either he has collected most of the remains of the previous Hades, or he is strong enough to rival the previous Hades.

The former is precisely the reason why the monsters are fighting for it today.

They openly oppose the maintainers of order in the underworld because once they gain absolute advantage in power, they may become the next Hades.

In this way, they don't have to care about the horror game or any restrictions of rules, because when they become the new Pluto, they will make the rules.

This is the same as the change of power in the human world.

Based on the above, the second point mentioned by Manager Black and White - "getting the recognition of the power of rules" is not the recognition of Manager Black and White himself.

Because it is obvious that although Manager Black and White obtained the agency rights of the power of rules from the previous Pluto, he is currently fighting against all the monsters that have seized Pluto's body, and it is impossible for him to agree with any of them.

If the monsters needed the recognition of the black and white managers, they would not be so unscrupulous in breaking up with them.

Monsters that can develop to the level of strange gods are very powerful in any dimension. They have also broken through the bloodthirsty, violent and paranoid sides of ordinary monsters, and are more like humans.

Just like an omniscient monster, it could stay underground for a long time and develop until it came to Su Fu at the most appropriate time, and then it would come out.

Later, it was almost killed by Rong Lele. Its first trump card was to parasitize in Hua Haoyan's body and develop again.

I have to say, this is quite tolerable.

What the omniscient monster can do, other high-level monsters can also do. The reason why they dare to fight the black and white manager is that this recognition does not come from the black and white manager.

Black and white managers cannot decide who will be the next Pluto in the future.

"What does recognition of the power of rules mean?" Rong Lele asked curiously.

"There is a raised button in the middle under the table. Press it," said the black and white manager.

Rong Lele reached under the conference table and found a metal button.

She pressed lightly, and a small drawer popped out from the center of the table top, which was originally as smooth and complete as marble.

At the signal from Manager Hei Bai, Rong Lele opened the drawer and saw what was inside - a silver key.

The key is about 20cm long, silver-white in color, and very retro in shape. The key handle is in the shape of a cane, carved with intricate and gorgeous patterns.

"This is the key left by Hades. The one who can pick up this key and open the room on the top floor is the future Hades."

Manager Black and White said.

Rong Lele: ...So careless?

Although there must be a mystery here, such as the power of Pluto on the key only recognizes specific objects, etc., Rong Lele still feels that this picture is a bit sloppy.

There were also such stories about power transfer on the Earth where she lived before, such as the UK needed the future king to pull out the sword stuck in the stone.

At least it is a sword, very powerful, and the sword also represents force.

But this key doesn't seem that difficult.

Manager Hei Bai seemed to know what Rong Lele was thinking, and he said half-jokingly:

"Why, you don't dare to go? Don't worry, if you can't open it, the key will just automatically return to the drawer, and you won't be able to open the drawer again.

There won’t be some man-eating monster that suddenly appears to punish you.”

Rong Lele smiled. She did have this worry for a moment just now. It was probably because she had read too many comics in the past.
