"Otto?!"
As Welt Yang uttered these words, the main hall of the Realm-Keeping Commission trembled.
"Ah!"
March 7th stumbled, instinctively grabbing Phainon's sleeve to keep from falling.
She looked at Welt, still shaken, her face full of confusion, "Uncle Yang, what's wrong? Your eyes are terrifying!"
Stelle stroked her chin, narrowing her eyes as she observed Welt, whose aura had completely changed.
"It feels... Uncle Yang's reaction isn't like he's met an enemy, but more like he's seen a ghost."
"Phainon!"
Welt Yang ignored their discussion, staring intently at Phainon.
A powerful aura emanated from him!
"Where exactly did you see him?! Such a person is an enormous threat to the Luofu!"
Phainon lowered his head in thought, feigning an effort to recall, "Near Central Starskiff Haven, I think. Too many people, I can't remember clearly."
He paused, then slowly added, "I only remember the latter half of his name; it was quite a mouthful."
"What was it called?" Welt's voice was taut like a string.
"Ah... Ah-what was it again?" Phainon looked up, his face innocent. "Oh, I remember now, Aminos!"
"It really is you, Otto A..."
A miniature black hole was almost coalescing in Welt's palm, but halfway through his sentence, he froze.
A surge of anger, on the verge of erupting, abruptly ceased.
"Aminos?"
"That's right." Phainon nodded calmly, "OttoAminos."
In an instant, Welt's world-shattering aura came to an abrupt halt.
He stood rooted to the spot, his expression a sight to behold.
Could it be... not him?
No! With his personality, he would definitely use a fake name!
But... Aminos?
March 7th leaned into Stelle's ear, whispering softly:
"Look at Uncle Yang, one moment he wants to kill someone, the next he's doubting himself. This is more than just an enemy, isn't it?"
"You have a point." Stelle nodded in agreement, "This is a generational feud."
"Uh... by the way, he actually told me some other things..."
Phainon looked at Welt's ever-changing expression, wanting to add more.
"Enough!"
Welt quickly fumbled in his pocket for a few fast-acting heart pills and swallowed them, forcibly interrupting Phainon's 'casting'.
"Don't say anything yet! Let me calm down; let's confirm the suspect first!"
Phainon shrugged indifferently.
The Realm-Keeping Commission official, Dahao, who had witnessed the entire farce, wore an awkward yet polite smile, his mind frantically complaining:
Are these people... truly the great heroes who saved the Luofu?
He cleared his throat, bringing the conversation back on track.
"Ahem... actually, according to our Realm-Keeping Commission's entry records, this person is named Luocha, a merchant."
"Luocha?"
Welt eyed Phainon suspiciously, "Can you confirm his name is Luocha and not Otto?"
"Of course, Mr. Welt!" Dahao immediately puffed out his chest,
"The Luofu's identity verification for all outsiders... ahem, foreigners is extremely strict! If his registered name is Luocha, then it must be reasonable, compliant, and legal!"
Hearing this, Welt's gaze towards Phainon was filled with resentment.
He didn't want to talk to this guy.
"Alright, alright, since Uncle Yang is so concerned about this case, let's investigate quickly!"
March 7th stepped in to mediate, finally ending the farce.
After reviewing all the footage related to Luocha, everyone entered the much-anticipated case deduction phase.
"Okay, assuming Luocha brought the Stellaron into the Xianzhou, I've roughly deduced his subsequent actions!"
March 7th announced excitedly, "Everyone, are you ready?"
Phainon, however, turned to Welt, asking knowingly, "Mr. Welt, so why exactly are we here?"
"To investigate, to investigate! It'll be quick!" March 7th eagerly replied, full of confidence.
"Fine, let's start." Stelle responded helplessly.
The next moment, the Realm-Keeping Commission's "Tai Xu Divine Mirror" activated, pulling everyone's consciousness into a simulated scene constructed of light and shadow.
"Alright, from now on, I am Luocha!"
"Partner, I'm scared!" Stelle said from the side.
Phainon added from the side, "March, we can't get into character like this."
March 7th shook her head helplessly, "Okay, okay, I forgot to change identities."
In the scene.
Luocha's tone finally returned to normal, but the first suspicious point arose: why did he linger outside an abandoned armory for a full two system hours?
Just as March 7th was pondering, Phainon's calm voice suddenly rang out.
"I think, it should be like this."
As he spoke, the scene abruptly changed.
In the footage, Luocha pried open the armory door, swaggered in, and then ran head-on into patrolling Cloud Knights.
Facing the Cloud Knights' questions, Phainon, in a remarkably lifelike tone, spoke for Luocha.
"What can I say? Although I brought the Stellaroninto the Xianzhou, causing you to lose many comrades, you still have me! I can completely fight against the Abominations of Abundance with you, can't I?"
Before he finished speaking, the atmosphere surged!
"Where is he?!"
Welt Yang raised his staff, the black orb at their tip spinning wildly. He wanted to rush out immediately and fight!
March 7th was startled and quickly explained: "Uncle Yang! Uncle Yang! These are all just Phainon's conjectures, it's fake!"
Phainon, however, shook his head, looking at Welt, his tone incredibly sincere.
"No."
"He told me this himself."
At that moment, the entire space within the Tai Xu Divine Mirror twisted violently due to the murderous intent emanating from Welt Yang.
Boom—
A dark figure crashed through the Realm-Keeping Commission's door, charging straight out.
"Star of Eden, Zero Rated Power!"
March 7th and Stelle exchanged glances, then chased after him together, their voices echoing from afar.
"It's fake, Uncle Yang, it's all fake!"
Phainon watched this scene, a faint smile on his face.
He slowly followed them out; spending time on these things wasn't so bad.
Only Dahao remained, stunned, looking at the scattered files blown away by the shockwave, and weakly clutched his forehead.
"Wait a minute..."
"Why did I call them here in the first place?"
"The only difference seems to be that they almost tore down the Realm-Keeping Commission!"
