Chapter 88: The Herrschers’ Scam
Rita looked at the two dwarfs in front of her with a serious expression: "Let's retreat with the captain first."
Looking at the two thugs surrounding her from the left and right, Rita had already begun to think of retreating.
The long legs wrapped in black stockings moved slightly and embedded themselves in the sand and rocks shattered by the explosion.
The sand and stones that were lifted up by the strong upward thrust made the two thugs instinctively block them.
Then Rita took this opportunity to grab the unconscious captain who was still lying on the ground, and ran away in a very embarrassing way by carrying him in a princess hug.
At this time, Rita saw out of the corner of her eye that the two thugs did not choose to chase her when they saw her running away, but were anxiously looking for something on the spot.
This undoubtedly made Rita feel relieved. Rita, who was very familiar with the terrain, quickly dodged into the dark alley and disappeared...

"That terrorist ran pretty fast." Inside the ruins of the dessert shop, the Herrscher of Sentience angrily threw a few punches at the terrorist who was escaping with his companions.
"But he even knew to escape with his companions? For a terrorist, he still has some conscience..."
"Senti! Stop making trouble and find the captain quickly!" Fu Hua shouted angrily.
"Oh! That's right, Captain!" Our Herrscher of Sentience only then realized that there was a captain in the ruins waiting for her to rescue him.
The two searched for a while and finally found the unconscious captain under a collapsed table.
Fu Hua gave the captain a quick check and breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "Fortunately, nothing serious happened. This table must have saved the captain's life."
Fu Hua immediately picked up the captain. Although it looked a bit strange for a girl about 1.6 meters tall to hold an unconscious man of about 1.8 meters tall in her arms like a princess, it did look a bit strange.
But Fu Hua couldn't care less at the moment: "I remember that there are many medicinal herbs in my martial arts hall in this world."
"Let's go back first!" Fu Hua's face was very serious.
Senti smacked her lips in fear, "Luckily he met us. I wonder who the captain offended in this world? How could he be retaliated against like this?"
Coincidentally, the two had just walked to the door of the dessert shop and were very excited to go in when they heard an explosion from inside.
When they rushed in, they found a terrorist who seemed to be looking for something in the living room on the first floor. Our Senti acted decisively and knocked him to the ground.
Then another terrorist came down from the second floor! He attacked by surprise! He almost stabbed the old antique.
If it weren't for the captain's safety, our Lady Herrscher of Sentience would have shown the other party what it means to open the sky with an inch of force!
It's not that easy to let the other party escape!
Senti looked left and right and finally found a usable bicycle in the corner.
After trying it, it was indeed still working. She turned around and shouted to Fu Hua, "Old Antique, quickly carry the captain up and show me the way!"
"Bicycle? Can you do it?" Fu Hua was a little confused.
"Don't worry, old antique. When our RV was stolen during our national tour, I already learned how to ride a bicycle from you! It's absolutely no problem!"
"Okay then..." Although Fu Hua was still a little hesitant, she still sat on the back seat of the bicycle, holding the unconscious captain tightly in her arms.
"Sit down, old antique! And you must hold the captain!"
The Herrscher of Sentience smiled confidently, stood up from the bicycle, and shouted excitedly: "Inch power! Pedal!"
At this moment, the entire bicycle paused suspiciously, and the entire body of the bicycle made a teeth-grinding sound of metal structure deformation.
Then the whole car body was like an arrow shot from a bow...
With a whoosh! They flew out and successfully fooled a man who was waiting for the red light at the intersection in a luxury car.
It's a launch! It's a launch!
"So? A bicycle can be ridden like this..." Several figures slowly emerged in the dessert shop which was originally empty.
Otto watched the bicycle disappear from his sight as it sped away.
Otto, who has lived for hundreds of years, has gained a lot of knowledge at this moment.
And Kiana looked around and saw that Rita and Fu Hua's groups left in different directions: "So this is your plan?"
"Create a fake captain and let them take him away?" Kiana felt a little sour in her teeth at this moment.
"No, no, no, no!" Otto quickly denied it, "How can you say it's fake?"
"We use real captains for every one of them, otherwise wouldn't it be exposed immediately? Especially when we have to face an existence like the Herrscher of Sentience, using fake ones will be even worse." Otto said confidently.
"Of course, every one of them is real, really!" The puppet, whose body has returned to its normal size, was now jumping and dancing ballet there.
She repeated what Otto said and explained: "Although the body is 'our' body, the consciousness inside is not."
Just like a shadow trick, another female puppet emerged from behind the puppet, and the two puppets danced as if in front of a mirror.
"?" Kiana tilted her head in confusion.
"The reason for this incident, of course, is due to the credit of our Lady Herrscher of Corruption," Otto explained.
The Herrscher with a pirated look of Elysia lifted her skirt and half-bowed elegantly to Kiana.
"It is to erode the power of the Herrscher. It will digitize all the memories of the captain of the Hyperion in your mind, and then copy them to the puppets of the Herrschers of Domination."
"Finally, these 'captains' with the captain's memory were born..."
"Plus, this space is a virtual space simulated by the Herrscher of the Void, so it won't affect reality at all..."
With a wave of her hand from Sirin, who was standing in the corner in school uniform, all the destroyed things were restored to their original state as if time had gone back.
"So! Ding Ding!" The Herrscher of Domination suddenly jumped onto the table and stood on it, like an actor on stage, shouting, "This will be a perfect stage! A real scam to deceive everyone!"
"Although all scams will be exposed in the end..." Otto applauded the puppet's funny performance, "But in the end, haven't we accomplished our mission of delaying time?"
Kiana remained silent: "Are you sure the table won't flip over?"
"Of course not... at least not now." Otto smiled confidently.
"Okay, actors, please take your seats. Our next group of guests has arrived." Otto stood by the window and saw a pink electric car speeding towards him in the distance.
