Poverty makes me capable of anything.

It's been exposed.

But how could she know these things?

Lin Wu felt a chill.

Judging from his calm expression, the desired effect was achieved.

This is far more frightening than simply telling him, "I've recognized you."

Humans have a strong ability to make associations, so they are more likely to scare themselves when they are in danger. The more they think about it, the more afraid they become, and the more afraid they become, the more they think about it.

"It's a pity." An Ran patted Lin Wu on the shoulder.

The sharp finger knives burned Lin Wu's eyes.

He had been thinking about whether he could launch a sneak attack, but the power transmitted from his palm completely deflated him.

"Your business partner is finished!"

Lin Wu listened, stunned.

“I knew about your plans from the beginning.”

"I let you in on purpose because I wanted to talk to you."

An Ran boasted without batting an eye.

Actually, catching the person was just good luck.

What do you want to talk about?

"Let's talk about the Hundred Wood Pirate Gang, those wicked guys."

"The evidence is conclusive that they colluded with the Holy Church to release the Void. It is an unforgivable crime. I think the Governor's Office must feel deep hatred for such people."

"No, that's right!" Lin Wu nodded.

"I heard that the Empire has sent an investigation team down here."

Yes, that's true.

Lin Wu knew that he and the Governor's Mansion were being threatened.

"The Governor is a man of great principle and will surely report the evil deeds of the Bai Mu Pirate Gang. Fortunately, the leader of the Bai Mu Pirate Gang is already dead, so no greater damage was caused."

"!"

"Everyone is happy."

You're so happy!

Lin Wu's forehead was covered in sweat, which dripped down in drops.

"Why do we have to make things so tense between us? We in the Time-Space Dimension are a peace-loving organization. Since arriving in Baplo, we have been contributing to the fight against pirates. There are rumors outside that we are the Night Owl branch, which is utter nonsense!" An Ran said loudly.

"Yes Yes Yes."

"As a non-governmental organization, we are united and will continue to contribute to the fight against theft in the park."

"..."

“Alright, you can go now,” An Ran said.

"Can we go now?" Lin Wu was taken aback.

"I'll send a spaceship to take you to a nearby airport. Oh, and don't forget to give us tickets. As a civilian organization, we don't have that much funding. If the Governor is willing to allocate some funds to us, that would be best."

"..."

Shameless bastard.

Despite cursing them in their hearts, Lin Wu and the others still obediently handed over all their valuables.

okay.

An Ran has no immediate plans to confront the Governor's Office.

Peaceful farming is the key at this stage.

Three days later, the level 82 hunk was freshly born. In the underground of Azure City, Anran prepared a fighting arena for Erin and the hunk.

Chapter 11 Digging holes with the left hand, building massively with the right

The OP-class mechanical puppets are designed specifically for combat. This is an improvement that Tan made to ordinary mechanical puppets to generate revenue for the Mechanical Church.

The new power system ensures that it can move quickly on rough terrain while also having the ability to fly at low altitudes.

Hands, feet, chest, and even head—every part of the body can be transformed into an offensive weapon, and the user can change shape at any time to cope with various complex terrains.

Erin's level is still considerably lower than Sheila's after her power spike.

She's only around level 76, and as a former researcher, she really doesn't have much combat talent.

Even with the identity of a wild boss, it quickly found itself at a disadvantage in the battle against the mechanical golems within the designated area.

Her damage stems from a massive boost to agility and strength, along with mind control and the purple corrosive gas of the Void Demon.

Mind control was completely useless against such a lump of iron, and the purple corrosive gas was also completely overwhelmed by the mechanical puppet's new alloy.

It's not that my brothers aren't cooperating, but XX has a Gundam.

Moreover, Erin's agility and strength are not even comparable to the OP-level mechanical puppet that Anran made.

boom!

Erin narrowly avoided the mechanical puppet's attack once again, her forehead dripping with sweat as she retreated.

The moment I retreated in the third step.

The OP-class robot, which had previously resembled a human, suddenly had two bursting "soft" metal protruding from its ribs.

One bandage wrapped around Erin's right thigh, and another bound her hands and lower chest area.

With immense strength, they lifted Erin up.

To onlookers, the battle took a sudden turn, transforming from a girl bravely challenging a robot guard into an evil tentacle monster in robot skin humiliating a magical girl.

The first step is to use "tentacles" to roll up the magical girl.

The tentacles gradually tightened their grip, leaving her no way to escape.

In the second step, more "tentacles" emerged and began to remove the "protective gear" from the magical girl's body.

The third step, "Tentacle" fully embodies the mindset of a hunter being chased by wild beasts in a seemingly endless cave, diving into any cave it encounters.

The fourth step is to use one's superior skills to lead the magical girl down the path of corruption.

Unfortunately, Erin surrendered before the second step was even completed.

Since resistance is futile, the only way to salvage one's innocence is to loudly proclaim that I surrender.

Erin had no choice but to give in.

When she landed, her right leg buckled and she squatted down on the ground, her face ashen, as if she had seen a ghost.

too frightening.

This is far more terrifying than seeing a ghost.

This woman...

She looked up at An Ran.

This woman is worse than a demon.

A ferocious demon.

It is both fierce and powerful.

So, you mean you're willing to help me with the work?

“I do,” Erin replied, feeling humiliated.

There was no resentment in his eyes, but there was still some anger.

It's alright.

Anyway, An Ran wasn't afraid that she would tamper with the medicine.

Not to mention she'll equip Erin with a bunch of "tentacle?" level robots as bodyguards and assistants, she'll also provide her with many players whose secondary profession is pharmacy.

Even without these, patients with a monitoring panel can still see the side effects of the medication.

"Welcome to the Hyperdimensional World." An Ran patted Erin on the shoulder warmly. "I will build you a laboratory as soon as possible so that your research can proceed smoothly."

"Then trouble you."

"I believe you will adapt to this job quickly, just as you adapted to your current body."

"..."

An Ran took out the Void Elixir.

This is a liquid strengthening agent contained in a specially made blue glass tube.

It has the same effects as the drug developed by Erin, but without the assimilation side effects.

"What? This has no side effects?"

Erin's expression changed drastically as she stared in horror at the glass tube in An Ran's hand.

No side effects, doesn't that mean...?

She glanced at her chest, then secretly looked at the inside of her thighs, which hadn't been so tightly bound by the robot earlier.

A wonderful life~

Ah!

"Where did you get this?"

Erin was no longer calm.

Overall, she is also a researcher and knows how difficult it is to eliminate the assimilative power of the Void Demons.

Although the number of experiments was not large, looking back now, many animal experiments failed because they could not withstand the assimilation process, resulting in their bodies being drained of energy and dying.
