"Dr. Armitage."

A clear, calm, steady, and profound voice rang out, instantly stirring the hearts and tense nerves of the two people, drawing their full attention to Los.

“You have been through a lot with my father, and you have helped me a lot with my studies. I believe in your character and knowledge, so if you can vouch for them with your character and knowledge, I can release them.”

Upon hearing this, Morgan was overjoyed and looked at Armitage.

Armitage breathed a sigh of relief and then said seriously, "Mayor Arkham, you can rest assured about that."

"I, Henry Armitage, guarantee with my integrity and knowledge that the seven-man squad led by Kingston are all righteous and good people, and they will not do anything detrimental to Mayor Los Arkham or the city of Arkham."

Upon hearing this, Los lowered his hand, leaned forward slightly, and said, "Very good, I trust your character."

After saying that, he turned to Lilith and said, "Go and inform Sheriff Harden to release him. It's all a misunderstanding."

Lilith nodded slightly and quietly left.

Los stood up and said, "Alright, that's all for today. I believe these professionals will still need two people to meet them when they leave the detention center."

The two nodded hurriedly upon hearing this, and Armitage said with utmost seriousness, "Thank you for your trust, Mayor Arkham."

Los said earnestly, "Dr. Armitage, I'm only giving you this face, because it's recognition earned through your character and knowledge!"

"understand!"

After thanking him repeatedly, the two left Los's house and drove directly to the police station.

"Doctor, thank you so much this time," Morgan said, still shaken by the experience.

If it weren't for Dr. Armitage, he would have been completely unable to persuade the cunning mayor today.

Armitage exhaled, a hint of pride and joy on his face: "This kind of face can only be used once."

He hadn't expected Los to think so highly of him and to agree so readily.

At that moment, he suddenly realized that his years of perseverance had finally paid off.

With just his words and a bit of face, he was able to get this most powerful mayor in history to release the man so readily.

If this story were to spread, its legendary status would be no less than that of how he himself banished the offspring of an evil god after studying it all in one night.

“Remember, don’t make unfounded assumptions about Arkham in the future, and certainly don’t be hostile to him.” Armitage was much more confident now.

Morgan nodded quickly: "Understood! Understood!"

Five minutes later, in the police station lobby.

When Kingston saw Armitage and Morgan who had come to pick him up, he immediately smiled happily.

Before they had completely walked away, Harden said casually, "Next time we meet, I won't be as polite as I was this time."

Kingston grinned and said, "Don't worry, Sheriff Harden, I believe that the next time we meet, we'll be working together to catch bad guys."

After leaving the police station, the group of nine did not rush to leave, but instead found a private room in a nearby restaurant and had a meal.

They hadn't had lunch yet and were starving.

After the nine people sat down, they exchanged information with each other.

Upon hearing about Armitage's influence, everyone was immediately surprised, and then they heard about the conditions Armitage had previously proposed.

“You did a great job, very well!” Kingston exclaimed.

Others also expressed their gratitude to Armitage.

Joseph said in a low voice, "Are we just going to let this go like this? Aren't we going to investigate what this mayor is all about?"

"If you miss, go ahead and die. Don't drag us down with you," Gina said calmly.

Joseph did not refute this time; the police detention had somewhat dampened his confidence.

You want to investigate others? They don't even need to lift a finger; they can manipulate you completely with just a few words.

Kingston said seriously, "Of course we can't let it go like that. Joseph and I will visit the mayor after dinner, under the guise of expressing our gratitude and seeking cooperation, to observe and probe the situation. If there are no problems, we will focus on the Innsmouth issue."

"can!"

This decision was approved by everyone.

Armitage said seriously, "I've already vouched for you. You two must not do anything rash or disrespectful, understand?"

Kingston smiled and said, "Don't worry, we wouldn't want to put you in a difficult position. We're just going to express our gratitude and observe; we absolutely won't do anything else that would cross the line."

Joseph said in a low voice, eager to see what you really are.

Chapter 0099 Joseph's Collapse

After lunch, Los was resting with his eyes closed. He wasn't sleeping, of course, but continuing to optimize and adjust his physical structure.

For this half-baked ancient god, his top priority right now is how to store energy more effectively, circulate energy more smoothly, and achieve the highest conversion rate.

He didn't want to end up like last time, showing off for a bit and then running out of power.

From Lilith's perspective, it's clear that Los's entire body is trembling rhythmically, as if it's recombining itself in search of a more efficient structure and method.

Los was also looking at his own body structure through his special headless perspective, and then sighed: "It's really difficult to optimize this aspect while maintaining a human form."

"No wonder those Outer Gods and Ancient Gods all have such strange forms."

He repeatedly tried to add more efficient ways to store energy to his body, and then, in human form, either make him extremely bloated or extremely ugly.

"Let's think of other ways." Los began searching through a vast amount of strange knowledge again.

Half an hour passed quickly, and Los once again discovered strange knowledge that shattered his worldview.

The breast energy storage method involves developing a man's breasts, transforming them into organs similar to a camel's hump, to store a large amount of compressed energy.

Seeing this, Los turned to Lilith with a strange expression and said, "Come here for a moment."

"What's wrong, Master?" Lilith walked over with a smile.

Los then reached out and grasped Lilith's erect member, kneading it earnestly.

After being held by Los, Lilith blushed instantly, her expression a mixture of enjoyment and excitement, believing that her master had finally discovered her other uses.

However, the next second, she heard Los ask in a serious tone, "Can you feel this thing helping you store energy?"

"what!"

This question immediately stunned Lilith.

"Storing energy? Here?" Lilith asked to confirm.

Los nodded: "Yes."

"It doesn't seem so. On the contrary, it takes more energy to maintain its shape and uprightness," Lilith recalled.

Los frowned slightly, then took off his shirt and measured his chest muscles: "Isn't it strange for a man to have a pair of high, prominent chests?"

“My master! You see…” Lilith’s eyes widened in disbelief.

Seeing Lilith's expression, Loston suddenly snapped out of his daze, his mind immediately snapping out of that bizarre, inhuman mode.

"cough cough cough"

After a violent cough to cover up his embarrassment, Los said calmly, "Don't overthink it, Lilith. I'm exploring the next steps in humanity's plans."

"Oh! I see!" Lilith was immediately relieved upon hearing this.

She was really scared just now. If her master really couldn't accept it and turned into her sister, then her future happy sex life would be ruined!

Los quickly changed the subject, asking, "The bugs, are they coming soon?"

Lilith suppressed her wandering thoughts: "Yes, according to Kant's report, they have already set off this way."

Los stood up, put on his clothes, and said, "Sheena really knows a lot about these bugs."

"Sheena said he had dealt with the Green Covenant many times, back when they were enemies."

"It seems the Green Covenant doesn't have a good relationship with the three great empires," Los chuckled.

“This is an unofficial, completely grassroots organization, and I’m quite interested in these rats,” Lilith said, a dangerous smile on her face.

Los picked up the head and placed it on his neck to secure it, as if he were adjusting his bow tie rather than his head.

After confirming there were no gaps, Los said with a detached expression, "It's time to let these insects know what real fear is."

Ten minutes later, Kingston and Joseph, led by Armitage, returned to Los's house.

When the door opened, the first person the three saw was Carrington.

Kingston and Joseph were immediately alarmed; this butler-like man already possessed the strength of level thirty-two!

The moment the butler opened the door, the two of them felt pressured.

After Armitage explained his purpose, Carrington nodded calmly and led the three men into the house.

Upon entering the house, the two cautiously looked around, only to find that there weren't many people in the detached villa.

As soon as they entered the living room, a mature, dignified, and elegant voice rang out: "Carrington, leave this to me. The master wants you to prepare tea and refreshments for the guests."

The two looked up at the sound and saw Lilith, dressed in white, tall and slender, with an absolutely beautiful face, walking down the stairs.

The moment Joseph saw Lilith, his expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but clench his fists.

He discovered that this beautiful, almost inhuman being possessed absolute power over him, meaning that this woman was at least on par with the captain.

He cautiously turned to look at the captain, hoping to get some hints.

But he noticed that the captain's expression had also become somewhat serious, and his heart skipped a beat.

Because he knew that this meant the woman's rank was above the captain's.

"Damn it, a mere steward is level 32, while the mayor's wife is even higher level than the guild leader, probably around level 45. Could the mayor have reached a terrifying level 50 to subdue such a being?!"

It's worth noting that there are only two level 50 superhumans in the entire Green Covenant.

Kingston stared intently at Lilith, his eyes narrowed like nails, feeling immense pressure.

He possesses a special kind of inspiration, which allows him to see Lilith at level 48.

At this moment, he knew very well that if this woman wanted to kill them, Armitage and Joseph would be instantly killed, while he might barely hold on for a while before being defeated.

"No wonder they could destroy the Hand of Chaos so easily. Not to mention those superhuman police officers, this one woman alone would have been enough!" Kingston thought to himself.

As the two men stood at attention, Lilith leaned forward and said in her beautiful voice, "Dr. Armitage, the mayor is waiting for you. Please come with me."

As she turned around, Lilith's teasing eyes swept over the two of them, instantly making them tense up and their backs soaked with sweat.
