Global Evolution: I transplanted the heart of the Supreme God.

Chapter 935: A Special Cutscene
This is all the evidence and doubts that Bai Pu has collected within his capabilities.

Finally, why did Bai Pu trust Legion Commander Gallius?

The reason is simple: Garius could not possibly be a Naga spy.

Otherwise, there would be no need to "guide the Imperial fleet to bombard the Abyss Gate" at all; as the commander, Gallius could have given the order with a single command.

What's even more intriguing is that Gallius is affiliated with the Dmitri family, yet his relationship with Mrs. Ryshe is rather lukewarm—at least for now. This forces him to respond to the issue of the real and fake Mrs. Ryshe, while simultaneously dealing with the fact that Mrs. Ryshe has been switched at birth.

If the fake Lady Rhys is going to guide the Imperial fleet to bombard the Abyss Gate, Gallius is unavoidable. She'll definitely have to whisper sweet nothings in Gallius's ear to persuade him to allow battleships to enter the waterways inside the continent.

As Bai Pu had predicted, even Elizabeth, the owner of the Rose Arena, knew about the big news that the Empire had discovered a huge mineral vein and was going to send battleships to blast open the tidal cliffs and open up the main mineral vein.

All Bai Pu needs to do is stir up suspicion in Gallius's mind.

If Gallius weren't stupid, he would have sent people to investigate who started spreading the news about the huge mine and whether Mrs. Reese was behind it!
After quietly examining the two image crystals, Gallius paused briefly before speaking:
"Your speculation is very likely true. Next, we need to rescue the real Mizuki and capture the fake one. Steelheart, thank you for your heroic actions in preventing a major conspiracy for the Imperial Legion. If you don't want to get too involved, just leave, and I will give you the reward you deserve."

A notification from the spirit world's will sounded.

[Series Quest 2: Search, Submitted. The next stage of the series quest has been triggered. You can choose to accept the quest and accumulate the rewards for the next stage, or you can choose to reject the subsequent quests and directly claim the rewards for the current stage.]

Bai Pu accepted the mission without hesitation: "I want to continue serving the Legion Commander and will not leave now."

[Three-Step Continuous Mission: True or False]

[Mission Objective: Rescue the real Relixis Dmitri and assist the Imperial Legion in bringing the imposter to justice.]

[Task Difficulty: C]

[Mission Deadline: None (Equivalent to your remaining time in this world)]

[Mission Reward: Unknown]

[Failure penalty: none]

Gallius smiled broadly and said, “Good, I knew I hadn’t misjudged you. I will personally lead the team to capture the Naga spy and rescue Reishi. You and your companions will come with me. After it’s done, I will declare Karamango a traitor to the Empire, and you will be credited with killing him.”

Bai Pu hurriedly said, "Lord Gallius, Lady Elizabeth, these two gladiators from the Rose Arena are partners I knew before I became a slave. I request that they also participate in this mission."

Gallius looked at Elizabeth the Bloodthorn.

Elizabeth smiled slightly: "From now on, those two will stay with you."

Elizabeth also owed Bai Pu a favor by asking her to act as an intermediary, which greatly brought her and Gallius closer. If she could successfully rescue the real Lady Reich, she would have essentially climbed the social ladder to the prestigious Dmitri family of the Empire, a rare opportunity for a minor nobleman who came from a gladiator background.

At the same time, Elizabeth also saw Bai Pu's potential. Although the two bronze-level gladiators, the Great Wizard and the Little Wizard, had the potential to become silver-level gladiators, Elizabeth was still willing to invest in Bai Pu in order to befriend him.

Steelheart is now a Silver Gladiator, and can "own his own property," so receiving the witches and wizards is no problem for him.

Elizabeth estimated that if things went smoothly, Steelheart's status would be further elevated, reaching the same level of minor nobility as her.

…The mission to rescue Lady Dmitri was personally led by Gallius.

Among the troops, there were four imperial generals of the leadership level, who were Gallius's trusted lieutenants.

There are also other enhanced elites, elite-level captains, and personal guards.

Being with a team like this makes me feel so safe, to the point that...

There was less sense of participation.

Bart whispered, "Lord Steelheart, what's going on? This is a three-step mission, and it feels so much easier than the second one..."

Bai Pu understood perfectly: "Because the difficulty of step 2 was too high, this step 3 is more like a compensatory transitional task... You can think of it as a special cutscene."

Bart continued in a low voice, "We're going to attack Dmitri's mansion now, right? Can we make a fortune off the war, and while the natives are winning, can we also steal some of their spoils?"

Although the looted goods cannot be taken out of this world or converted into points, they can be used for trade among the natives to obtain some useful items.

For example, Bai Pu used a magic crystal from the Naga Nest to exchange for several image crystals in the black market of the lower city.

The only drawback of these memory crystals compared to those obtained through merit points is that they cannot be taken out of this world, but this does not affect their use within this world.

Bai Pu extinguished Bart's little scheme: "Don't overthink it, this isn't an attack on Dmitri's mansion... For Gallius, it's home! This is his home, do you think he'd let you rob it?"

Bart was discouraged and could only obediently "watch the cutscenes".

Gallius, accompanied by a large number of powerful warriors, moved into the Demetrius residence.

No real battle broke out. After Gallius took control of the situation, Bai Pu stepped forward and exposed the true identity of the fake Mrs. Reishi.

She was indeed a female Naga, disguised using a secret potion!
Her real name is "Navia". She comes from the Tidehunter tribe and was assigned by a high-ranking Naga leader codenamed "Witch" to replace the real Lady Dmitri a year ago.

Navia was completely unable to remain sober in the presence of the court sorcerer summoned by Gallius.

Under the influence of truth serum, psychological manipulation, and other methods, she confessed everything she had done over the past year.

Bai Pu had been speculating whether the real Lady Ruixi was imprisoned in some Naga stronghold and that they, as awakened beings, would need to infiltrate and rescue her.

As it turned out, Bai Pu had overcomplicated things; the situation wasn't actually that complicated.

The "witch transformation potion" used by Navia requires cutting the target's hair as a catalyst and brewing it on the spot.

Therefore, this half-human, half-snake monster cannot kill Lady Rishie or imprison her in a Naga lair far from the human camp.

Poor Mrs. Reese remained unconscious, lying in an underwater cave near the Giant Claw Mountain in Tefra.
