Chapter 419 The Task of Balance
Chapter 419 The Task of Balance
"Arbitrator..."
Upon seeing the arbitrator in front of them, clad in silver armor and wielding a giant sword, Jing Yuan and Dan Heng's expressions simultaneously turned cold.
They knew what the name represented.
As believers in the path of balance, they directly obey the balance star god [Mutual], and are committed to erasing extreme opposing concepts in the universe to achieve a "zero-sum" state and reach the fact of balance.
Each arbitrator is more capable than one might imagine; the lowest level they can reach is the Envoy level.
Therefore, in some worlds, people mistake these arbitrators for gods.
"His darling, he's even more pretentious than me!"
Portio suddenly found the cigar in his mouth no longer appealing.
"You've arrived."
The black swan headed towards Adekett.
"Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to introduce you, this is..." Black Swan was interrupted by Adekter before she could finish speaking.
“Rememberer, you know, I did not come here for you.”
Adekt sheathed his greatsword and looked up at the sky.
"Hahaha, Yi Zhe, you've been putting on a big show, haven't you?" Potio laughed.
Black Swan's expression turned sour. "Old friend, what do you mean by that?"
“It is the will of balance.” A black flame ignited in Adekt’s hand, which was out of place with his white clothes.
"Even without your invitation, I would still have come here."
So, I'm sorry.
"You mean, mutual?" The Black Swan looked somewhat bewildered.
She knew that the arbitrators were acting in accordance with the will of the Star God.
She met Adect on a planet where a conflict had broken out.
She was preparing to collect the memories of this doomed planet when Adek arrived.
The arrival of the arbitrator was like that of a god, instantly resolving the "conflict" with overwhelming force.
Of course, the methods for resolving conflicts may not be as simple as one might imagine.
Adekt believed that the existence of this planet would inevitably cause conflict and imbalance, so he wiped out the entire planet with a single sword strike.
This behavior led to the failure of the Black Swan's mission, but the Black Swan had no choice but to suffer the loss in silence.
During subsequent missions, Black Swan encountered Adekett several more times, and that's how they got to know each other.
"Is this Pinocchio?" Adekter looked around.
"Almost, but not the real pinocene. The real pinocene is in the dream," Black Swan explained.
"Then I'll leave it to you. My mission begins."
"I can lead the way, but you seem to be giving me no face at all," Black Swan said with some dissatisfaction.
“Balanced will is the highest priority,” Adekert replied calmly.
The black swan shook its head and sighed.
Never mind, she already knew what kind of person Adekett was.
Although arrogant and even somewhat disdainful of others, he still possesses a strong sense of justice.
Dan Heng and Jing Yuan exchanged glances, both agreeing that the newcomer had ill intentions.
He's definitely not an easy opponent.
“Hey friend, I know you’re in a hurry, but let’s talk about first come, first served, okay?” Potio said, somewhat displeased.
"you are?"
“He’s a darling, I’m a patrolman of the sea.”
“Sea Patrols? A small organization. I remember it was wiped out, wasn’t it?” Adekert looked at Potio with a puzzled expression.
"You bastard!!"
Potio was enraged and was about to draw his gun when Danheng stopped him.
“Potti!” Danheng gave him a wink.
"Fine, fine, you're lucky. I'm in a good mood today."
Potio understood Danheng's meaning.
Drawing a gun here does seem a bit inappropriate.
At that moment, hotel staff rushed in.
"My God, what have you done?"
Ellie stared at the hole in the sky above her, feeling utterly devastated.
Who on earth is this person? The hotel has 334 floors, but this is only the first floor!
Did they just pierce it through?
And that marble floor, it's completely shattered into pieces!
"I'm sorry, I will make it up to you."
Adekt walked over to Ellie and took out a box.
Ellie looked at the tall figure in front of her, swallowed hard, took the box, and opened it to look inside.
Inside was a box of precious gems.
"The mission is urgent, and I only brought these. If it's not enough... I can stay here and work after the mission is over."
Adek's face was expressionless, and even though his words were sincere, they still frightened Ellie.
"Well, um, I... I need to consult with my supervisor first..."
After saying that, Ellie rushed out of the room.
Danheng and Jingyuan, who were standing nearby, saw what Adekter had done, and the weight that had been hanging over them finally lifted.
It seems this arbitrator is quite good.
When they were still the Five Heroes of the Cloud, they encountered an arbitrator once.
They were still on a mission to wipe out one of the home planets of the Bountiful People, but an arbitrator beat them to it.
The arbitrator's power to destroy a planet with a single blow undoubtedly had a profound impact on them, who were still in their formative years at the time.
In their minds, arbitrators are cold and ruthless, traversing the stars to eliminate all unstable factors in order to maintain balance.
“I didn’t expect you to be so responsible. I approve of you,” Potio said.
"I don't need your approval, I only follow the will of balance."
Adec ignored Potio and turned to look at the Black Swan.
"Tell me the intelligence, and who are these two?" Adekt noticed Jing Yuan and Dan Heng standing to the side.
“They are members of the Star Train,” Black Swan introduced.
"The Star Train? I seem to remember it."
"The last time we met was before Akivili fell," Adekter recalled.
Adekt, one of the arbitrators who experienced the War of the Gods, has lived for nearly three thousand years.
His legends are found throughout the universe, and he even communicated with some star gods.
"I am Dan Heng, and this is Jing Yuan," Dan Heng introduced.
“I understand,” Adek nodded.
"As for me, my name is not important; you can simply call me the Arbitrator."
Jing Yuan nodded. "I understand."
His eyes were fixed on Adekter; this arbitrator was certainly no small figure.
His aura alone is terrifyingly strong.
"Speaking of which, Adekt, what exactly brought you here?"
“For one person,” Adekter said.
"Alone?" Black Swan asked, puzzled.
“A balanced will led me here to find someone.”
“The will indicates that this person is the key to the balance of the universe,” Adekter said.
"Who exactly is it? What's their name?" Black Swan continued to ask.
“I don’t know.” Adekter shook his head. “The balanced will only led me here.”
"Therefore, I still need your help with the specifics, Yi Zhe."
"You bastard..." Black Swan crossed her arms, looking somewhat displeased.
“Of course, I will also provide any assistance you need outside of the mission, for the sake of balance and equivalent exchange,” Adekter said.
"Hmph, that's more like it." Black Swan's expression finally improved a bit.
“In that case, let’s get down to business, Mr. Arbitrator,” Jing Yuan said.
