You went on a blind date and presented an A-level wanted criminal as a meeting gift?

After passing through a narrow, musty-smelling dark passage, the bartender led Lin Chen to a heavy, soundproof door.

Pushing open the door, you'll find an exceptionally luxurious VIP room inside.

The leather sofas and crystal chandeliers create a world apart from the smoky, chaotic bars outside.

However, the atmosphere inside the private room was so cold it sent chills down your spine.

On the sofa sat four burly men with menacing faces and bodies covered in ferocious tattoos.

Their waists were bulging, clearly carrying real weapons.

Upon seeing Lin Chen enter, the four men's eyes gleamed like hungry wolves eyeing a fat sheep, revealing undisguised greed and ferocity.

"Brother Leopard, this boss wants 'Paradise,' he's a big spender with unlimited black cards."

The bartender walked up to a burly man with a scar and whispered a few words in his ear.

Upon hearing this, Scarface Leopard's eyes immediately lit up like two searchlights.

He looked Lin Chen up and down, then suddenly grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth.

"Brother, if you want 'ecstasy,' that's easy to say."

"However, we're a little short on cash lately, you see..."

As he spoke, Brother Leopard winked at his underlings.

"Snap!"

The four burly men simultaneously drew their silenced pistols from their waists, and the dark muzzles were pointed straight at Lin Chen's head!

"Hand over the black card and write down the PIN! I'm in a good mood today, maybe I'll spare your life!"

Leopard Brother laughed arrogantly; this was clearly a case of double-crossing!

Faced with four loaded pistols, the madness and confusion on Lin Chen's face vanished instantly.

He straightened up, his eyes becoming deep and cold, as if he were looking at four corpses.

"I just wanted to quietly buy some information, why are there always these reckless idiots like you who insist on forcing me to take action?"

Lin Chen sighed softly, his tone revealing a hint of helplessness.

"Damn it! He's about to die and he still dares to act tough! Break his legs!"

Leopard roared.

However, before he could finish speaking!

A sudden change has occurred!

[Grandmaster-level combat proficiency]! Unleashed!

Lin Chen's body suddenly went limp, and he instantly transformed into a black lightning bolt!

The speed was so fast that it left several afterimages in the cramped private room!

"Bang! Crack!"

Three seconds!

It only took three seconds!

A series of chilling cracking sounds echoed through the private room!

The four gun-wielding drug dealers, who were just moments before so arrogant and domineering, didn't even have time to pull the trigger before collapsing to the ground like rag dolls!

Their arms and legs were twisted by Lin Chen at bizarre angles that completely defied ergonomics, pistols were scattered all over the ground, and they were emitting mournful screams like pigs being slaughtered.

"Aaaaah! My hand! My hand is broken!"

Leopard was writhing on the ground in pain, looking at Lin Chen as if he were a devil crawling out of hell!

The bartender standing to the side was so terrified that his legs went weak and he knelt on the ground with a thud, a foul-smelling yellow liquid flowing down his trouser leg.

"B-Big brother! Spare me! I don't know anything! I was just guiding the way!"

The bartender kowtowed desperately, until his forehead bled.

Lin Chen ignored the screams from the ground.

He walked up to the bartender, leaned down slightly, and stared intently into the bartender's eyes with his jet-black eyes.

[God-level Hypnosis]! Activated!

An invisible, terrifying mental force instantly pierced through the bartender's psychological defenses.

The bartender's body stiffened abruptly, his eyes instantly becoming empty and dull, like a puppet whose soul had been taken away.

"Look into my eyes and tell me, where is the source of 'bliss'?"

Lin Chen's voice carried an irresistible magic, striking the bartender's subconscious.

The bartender opened his mouth blankly and answered mechanically.

"Tomorrow night...in international waters...the luxury cruise ship 'Sea Eden'."

"Black Shark, the leader of the Abyss Organization in Jiangcheng, is going to hold a top-tier underground auction there... This batch of 'Paradise' is the highlight of the auction..."

"A Maritime Eden? An Underground Auction?"

A glint of light flashed in Lin Chen's eyes.

How do I board the ship?

Lin Chen continued to press for answers.

"It absolutely must be a gold-embossed invitation personally issued by the Black Shark boss... Moreover, the invitation must be under his real name, and boarding will require extremely strict identity and asset verification..."

Lin Chen reached into the bartender's pocket and pulled out a beautifully crafted invitation with a dark gold skull pattern.

He opened the invitation and saw that it indeed had an unfamiliar name on it, along with a complicated anti-counterfeiting chip.

"Real-name verification? And asset checks too?"

Lin Chen looked at the invitation in his hand, a cold smile slowly creeping onto his lips.

He dispelled the hypnosis and casually chopped the bartender unconscious.

Stepping out of the VIP room, Lin Chen took out his personal cell phone and dialed a number.

The phone rang three times before being answered quickly.

The receiver carried Ye Qingcheng's voice, a mix of languidness and forced coldness and arrogance befitting a female CEO.

"In the middle of the night, instead of spending time with your female companions, Consultant Lin, why are you calling me?"

Hearing this strong sense of jealousy, Lin Chen smiled helplessly, his voice becoming deep and magnetic.

"Qingcheng, I need your help."

"Use all the resources of the Ye Group to help me create a flawless identity. Tomorrow night, I will board a cruise ship called 'Sea Eden'."

Ye Qingcheng was silent for two seconds on the other end of the phone. Then, her domineering female CEO aura could be felt even through the screen.

"tomorrow."

"All the identification documents you requested will be delivered to you before you board the ship tomorrow."
