Twelve Silver Moons

Chen Miemie received a warm welcome without having to do a single thing.

Fina pointed to a small crescent moon seat on the right. That is your seat. You are the twelfth member of our society.

Next, the veteran members will introduce themselves in order.

I am Fina, the Rubik's Tyrant, current president of the society.

Leng Ruxue sat in the first seat on the right. He was the second to stand up:

I am Leng Ruxue, the Absolute Zero, vice president.

The man in the second seat on the left stood up. His hair was made of glowing vines, and with every breath, he exhaled dandelion-like spores.

I am Keyuan, the Gardener, First Seat of the Silver Moon.

A tall man in the second seat on the right stood up. Half of his face was human flesh, and the other half was smooth bone, divided perfectly down the bridge of his nose.

I am Framework, the Architect, Second Seat of the Silver Moon.

The woman in the third seat on the left stood up. Her long cyan hair floated against gravity, and a barrier of a gentle breeze seemed to surround her body.

I am Dawn, the Wind Maiden, Third Seat of the Silver Moon.

The woman in the third seat on the right stood up. Even on such a cold Frost Moon night, she remained barefoot with her midriff exposed.

I am Kashan, the Critical Point Dancer, Fourth Seat of the Silver Moon.

The fat man in the fourth seat on the left stood up. His hands were hidden in his sleeves, and an eye-catching light emanated from where his heart was.

I am Pain Reserve, the Pain Merchant, Fifth Seat of the Silver Moon.

The old man in the fourth seat on the right stood up. Although his hair was completely white, he was still dressed in youthful street hip-hop attire.

I am Tou Yan, the Future Thief, Sixth Seat of the Silver Moon.

The gentleman in the fifth seat on the left stood up and gave a slight bow. Dressed in a black-and-white suit, he appeared gentle and elegant.

I am Meng Yun, the Bartender, Seventh Seat of the Silver Moon.

The young man in the fifth seat on the right stood up. His hair was like colorful clouds, constantly shifting between the colors of the rainbow.

I am Fei Dongsheng, the Heartstring Musician, Eighth Seat of the Silver Moon.

The woman in the sixth seat on the left stood up. With a teardrop mole under her right eye, she looked slightly lethargic.

I am Xi, the Painter, Ninth Seat of the Silver Moon.

And the one in the sixth seat on the right was Chen Miemie.

After everyone finished their introductions, they all focused their gazes on him.

Obviously, with the atmosphere at this point, following the seating order and the previous introductions, even a six-year-old child could find the pattern and know that when it was his turn, he would be the Tenth Seat of the Silver Moon.

As a newcomer reporting in, Chen Miemie found it a bit hard to handle being stared at by this group of terrifying big shots with codenames and intense auras.

He stood up awkwardly, shrinking his neck slightly, not daring to meet the eyes of any of the seated big shots.

Then, using the most cowardly tone, he spoke the most arrogant words:

I am Chen Miemie, the next president of the Court of the Silver Moon.

I intend to take the position of president of the Court of the Silver Moon society tonight, at this very moment. Who is in favor, and who is against?

Chen Miemie, a transmigrator, was best at saying no to the outdated conventions of ranking by seniority.

When he lacked strength, he would follow his heart and lay low, but when he had backing, he would be as tough as he needed to be.

At this moment, bathed in the brilliance of the Frost Moon, possessing an Immortality of 9, wearing a Silence Scarf with an Intensity of 9, and having Xiao Shuang, the ultimate boss of the Frost Moon lineage, as his backer behind him.

This was the time to be tough.

Chen Miemie's words immediately rang in the ears of everyone present, like the murmurs of an unknown entity.

Amidst those vague ravings, they could roughly understand the meaning of Chen Miemie's words.

And what made everyone particularly surprised was that along with these ravings, the Mystery on their bodies actually began to fall silent, as if it were being suppressed to a great extent.

This kid has something. He's really daring. Leng Ruxue did not expect the newcomer to be so fierce.

Beautifully done, take out that Rubik's woman. The Third Seat, the Wind Maiden Dawn, remained expressionless, but her heart was screaming wildly.

Commendable courage, but it's a pity he'll be miserable in a moment. The Seventh Seat, the Bartender Meng Yun, sighed slightly, not very approving of the newcomer's recklessness.

From the vice president to the Ninth Seat Xi, everyone shifted their gazes from Chen Miemie to the current president, Fina, who stood before the Frost Moon.

Fina took two steps forward.

Alright, I accept your challenge. Make your move. I won't fight back. As long as you can hurt me, the position of president is yours.

Chen Miemie was dumbfounded.

She wasn't playing by the rules.

With his Mystery starting with a 1, how could he fight this big shot whose stats started in the 5s?

No, I won't bully you. Let's do it the other way around. You hit me, and if you can kill me, you win. The only thing Chen Miemie could rely on was his Immortality of 9.

The main function of the Silence Scarf was its murmuring ravings, focusing on continuous mental pollution. The active skill of silencing was just an added bonus; he could use it at a critical moment, but it wouldn't allow him to incapacitate an opponent for a long time.

Then be careful. The Rubik's Cube above Fina's head turned.

With just the first turn, a blood hole the size of a cup appeared in Chen Miemie's abdomen. He didn't even notice where the attack came from.

Fina only struck once and immediately stopped her attack. She didn't want to kill the new member.

Before she could announce the end of the battle, Chen Miemie's flesh squirmed. Through his torn clothes, it could be seen that the blood hole in his abdomen had already healed completely.

So that's how it is. A super strong healing ability, huh? Then I'll use a little more force next. Make sure to speak up in time if you can't take it.

The Rubik's Cube turned again.

Subsequently, knife wounds, lacerations, shattered bones, sharp piercings, blunt force blows, burning to a crisp, freezing to slag, vile corrosion, and highly toxic dousing... all took turns appearing.

The most unconventional attack was actually injecting an inhuman amount of aphrodisiac into Chen Miemie's body. It was simply ruthless.

The ten society members present were a bit dumbfounded.

They weren't surprised that Chen Miemie could withstand it; no one would jump out looking for death without some sort of skill.

What astonished them was that from beginning to end, Chen Miemie swallowed all kinds of abnormal negative statuses and suffered incredibly tragic injuries without even furrowing his brows.

Most of those present were extremely experienced in actual combat. They could easily tell at a glance that Chen Miemie belonged to the type that had no offensive power but was exceptionally good at taking hits.

But being able to take a hit was one thing; being this resilient was another matter entirely.

Anyone who could reach the absolute peak in any field was an extraordinary powerhouse.

Chen Miemie, no wonder you dared to covet the president's position. I have consecutively used twenty-six different powers and launched more than twenty lethal attacks against you, yet you are still standing. Impressive. Fina stopped turning the Rubik's Cube.

So, did I succeed?

No. My destructive power is too great. I can't increase the intensity anymore, or the building our society is in won't be able to withstand it.

From the battle just now, I could chop you into pieces and bury them in different places. Although you wouldn't die, you would lose your combat ability.

Therefore, I deeply acknowledge your Immortality, but without offensive power, this can only be considered a draw at best.

Unless you defeat me, a draw won't get you the position of president. So, your challenge has failed.

Alright then. Chen Miemie accepted this outcome.

He knew very well that, except during the Eternal Moon Night, he still had a long way to go.

In [Mystery] battles, experienced veterans possessed incredibly strong information gathering and analytical deduction skills. Thinking he could bluff forever was just deceiving himself.

However, he never intended to challenge successfully in the first place.

The goal of flexing his muscles had already been achieved; it wasn't like he genuinely wanted to be the president of the [Silver Moon Court].

"Since that's the case, you are now the Tenth Seat of Silver Moon. I look forward to the day you can defeat me."

"Fine, Tenth Seat it is. I have a double-digit number, while they only have single digits. Hmph, that's the difference."

"In the society, members pair up as partners. Right now, only Xi is single, so from now on, you two are a team. She will tell you about the other minor daily matters in the society."

"Everyone, if there's nothing else, meeting dismissed."

The main purpose of this gathering was Chen Miemie joining the society, so this could be considered a complete success.

As soon as the meeting was dismissed, everyone immediately returned to their aloof demeanors and dispersed directly, as if the onlookers watching the battle just now weren't them.

Just as Chen Miemie was about to leave, a voice sounded in his ear:

"Beep, today's society rule has refreshed: Once you get into bed, you must stay in bed for a full 10 hours."

Chen Miemie looked around.

It sounded a bit like an electronic voice. Who was speaking?

Only Leng Ruxue was left at the scene: "You heard the rule announcement, right? That's the president's rule, and it must be obeyed."

"Such a weird rule?"

"Every day, our president randomly gets a 'Rule of the Day' from the Rubik's Cube, like 'all attacks must critically hit,' 'must speak in rhymes,' and so on.

Her random rules become the daily law of our society, and all internal members must follow them.

Of course, this isn't voluntary on her part; she also hopes someone can replace her as the president."

Leng Ruxue only mentioned the result of Fina's [Mystery] ability, covering up a lot in between, which could easily confuse people. However, this perfectly fit the characteristics of the mystery circle, so Chen Miemie didn't press further.

"What happens if I don't follow it?"

"I know you're practically immortal, but I still don't recommend you do that. But humans, you always need a personal experience to learn your lesson. So, good luck."
