After breaking up, I picked up a beautiful vampire girl

But just as Hecate was about to slowly extend her hand towards the girl, she suddenly felt something was wrong...

She turned her head suddenly and saw a woman in black sitting beside the bed.

And this woman was very familiar to Hecate. She swallowed and looked at the woman and said.

"...Why are you here?"

"How could I just sit there and watch my daughter go astray?"

Hecate was struck by lightning, and she froze in place, staring at the familiar figure in front of her with wide eyes.

Even through the hood and darkness, she could feel the man's burning gaze, as if he wanted to see through her soul.

"Who, who is your daughter! I've said it many times! I'm not your daughter Nyx! There's nothing between us!"

Hecate was speechless about this woman. Although some people had said that she was the daughter of Nyx, Hecate did not believe it. She hated Nyx very much and was expelled from the Olympus gods mainly because of her discord with Nyx.

But she had to admit that she felt a little insecure when facing this woman.

Hecate stammered, her voice trembling, "And I, I'm not some misguided person... I just..."

"Just what?" The woman interrupted her gently, her tone calm yet revealing a chilling sense of pressure. "Are you simply trying to betray my instructions and attack mortals without authorization? Or are you simply ignoring my orders and insisting on doing what you want?"

“…What’s it to you?”

"After all these years, Hecate, you still can't see where this world is headed."

"Don't mind my business! Leave this woman to me! Otherwise I...I..."

"Or are you going to kill me?"

The woman raised her eyes slightly, her smile full of kindness.

".......You, please let me go, okay? I really don't want to have anything to do with you..."

Hecate looked at Nyx almost pleadingly.

"Hekate, even if you are not my offspring, we are still Olympians. Your reckless behavior has already brought shame upon us. Please do not repeat this mistake."

The woman reached out her hand and slowly stroked Li Lingan's sleeping face. She seemed to have cast some kind of magic on the girl, allowing her to sleep peacefully in her dream and not be disturbed by the quarrel between the two.

"I'm saying this one last time! Nyx! My affairs have nothing to do with you! I, I'm fine now! As long as I get this woman, I can gain very powerful strength!"

"You have made too many mistakes, my child..."

There was a hint of disappointment in the woman's eyes, and then a hint of seriousness.

"If I can't control you, then I'll let you receive some punishment here."

"Okay! You want to fight, right? Come on! I... I..."

Suddenly, Hecate felt dizzy and her vision gradually blurred.

"I, what's going on with me..."

She slowly knelt down by the window, covering her head with her hands.

"Daphne added some bay leaves to the meal I just gave you."

"...Wh, what! Daphne...that...that...little, little bitch...you, you...tricked me...!"

Hecate was speechless. She thought of the girl who had just given her clothes. No wonder she looked familiar.

She collapsed to the ground, her vision becoming increasingly blurry, Nyx's soft humming echoing in her ears.

Soon she fell into a deep sleep.

When she opened her eyes again, she was already in the Forbidden Magic Prison.

She was wearing a straitjacket and had special rings on her wrists, neck, and ankles.

"Are you awake?"

And in front of her, Lin Ze, the deputy director of Tianhai City Special Management Bureau, was looking at her with a smile.

Chapter 599 The Gods will never be slaves unless they are provided with food and shelter

Hecate struggled to get up, but all the strength in her body seemed to be drained away. She could only fall to the ground helplessly, watching Lin Ze walk closer step by step, and then sit in front of her.

"You...you despicable villains..." Hecate gritted her teeth, her eyes burning with anger and resentment. "If it weren't for that traitor Nyx, I would have killed you all long ago!"

Lin Ze just smiled lightly when he heard this. The smile seemed gentle, but it made Hecate feel a chill to the bone.

"Really? I'd think you'd be a corpse by now if it weren't for Nyx."

Lin Ze spoke slowly, his tone relaxed, yet revealing a chilling chill.

When Hecate heard this, her heart trembled, and something seemed to choke her throat, making her unable to speak.

She swallowed tremblingly, her face turning pale as paper.

Although I had heard that there were several ruthless characters in China before, the ones I should not mess with the most were a woman named Shuo Bai and a monster named Lin Ze.

She was a little disdainful at first, but after facing Lin Ze at such a close distance today, she knew that the person who had warned her was not lying, and was even conservative.

This kind of monster...why would it stand on the side of humans.

"However, your IQ is lower than I thought, Dark Goddess."

Lin Ze continued, a playful smile on his face.

"You, Plague, and those wanted aliens, didn't you really think that Zhong Huaian and Moriarty would include you in their so-called new world?"

"W-what?"

Hecate widened her eyes and looked at Lin Ze in disbelief.

"What do you mean……"

"He never expected you to succeed from the beginning."

Lin Ze shrugged, looking helpless.

"In his eyes, you're nothing more than pawns, cannon fodder to distract us. As long as you misfits create enough chaos in public, he can advance his plans in secret and reap the benefits. So, Hecate, you've all been fooled."

"This... this is impossible..." Hecate muttered to herself, her expression gradually changing from shock to despair. "They promised! And how dare they lie to us!"

"Don't think too highly of yourself, Hecate."

Lin Ze supported his chin with his hand, looked at Hecate with a smile, and there was a hint of helplessness in his tone.

"In his eyes, your life or death is completely unimportant. He only cares about his own goals. As for how many pawns are sacrificed in the process, that doesn't matter. This is Zhong Huaian. He has been like this for hundreds of years and has never changed. He is a complete egoist. As for Moriarty..."

Lin Ze blinked, and then the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

"She's not an alien, nor a human, not even a living being. We have reason to believe that Moriarty is a native creation of the Heart of the World, a manifestation of the will of this planet. Do you think she cares about the lives of humans or aliens?"

"But, but Moriarty helped us kill Prometheus..."

"You are so naive, you little fool."

Lin Ze raised his hand and gently stroked Hecate's cheek.

"Help you? Think about it yourself. If Prometheus really stood on the same side as humans and aliens, relying on that infinite evolutionary characteristic, then even transforming this planet would be a piece of cake. Is this what the Heart of the World wants to see?"

Hecate could no longer control her emotions when she heard this. She raised her head and glared at Lin Ze, her eyes red with anger and resentment burning in them.

"Bullshit! You're talking nonsense!"

Hecate screamed, her voice hysterical, like the roar of a wounded beast.

"How could Moriarty not be an alien? She's clearly just like us, possessing extraordinary powers. She's clearly just like us, a victim of this world! She couldn't possibly lie to us, she couldn't possibly use us!"

Lin Ze sighed, his expression becoming somewhat compassionate.

She slowly squatted down, looking Hecate in the eye, her tone soft and compassionate: "Hector, Moriarty has never been one of your kind. She is just wearing the cloak of an alien, but in reality she is the will of this world. She doesn't care about the lives of aliens at all. In her eyes, you are all just insignificant ants."

"Why should I believe you?"

Hecate glared at Linze.

"I didn't ask you to believe me. I've already done my best to tell you all this. You've committed many crimes. If it weren't for Nyx, I wouldn't have said a word to you."

Lin Ze stood up with a smile and walked towards the door.

"By the way." Lin Ze walked to the door, then turned back to look at Hecate: "If you want, you can join the Huaxia Special Management Bureau. Our food and treatment here are very good, but you have a criminal record, so you may not get a salary. But if you perform well, I will give you a bonus personally."

"Who...who wants to join you..."

Lin Ze looked at the awkward Hecate, and his expression became gentle again.

"The food in our Special Management Bureau is delicious, and we also provide you with enough clothes. Here, you can find your new home."

Hecate was stunned. She didn't want to listen to those big truths, but these two simplest sentences made her heart tremble.

Lin Ze walked out of the room without even asking her about Moriarty and Zhong Huaian's real intentions.

At the door, the figure of the goddess of night was lurking in the darkness. When she saw Lin Ze, she smiled and nodded in greeting.

"I owe you another favor."

After hearing what Nyx said, Lin Ze just took out a cigarette box and lit a cigarette.

"It can be considered as helping us find a breakthrough. By the way, why do I feel that Hecate is different from the legend? She seems to be mentally deficient."

Nyx sighed and slowly spoke, "The Olympian gods are not at peace right now. Hecate once suffered a very serious trauma, and her divinity was damaged, just like my daughter Hypnos."

"Then why don't we ask Li Muhan to book a room for her to recuperate?"

Phew.

Nyx laughed. She didn't know why Lin Ze had become so humorous now. Was it related to the kid named Li Muhan?

"Not for now. What Hecate needs isn't power, but to find her place again. I'm ashamed that there's no such place on Mount Olympus right now, so I exiled her. It was a way of protecting her, but I never imagined she would fall into this situation."

"It's not the end yet."

Lin Ze exhaled a puff of smoke and said with a smile: "Since it has come, let's make the best of it. Let her think about it herself."

And Hecate's confession came even faster than expected.

Ten minutes later, she was making a noise in the room.

"Me! I'm hungry!"

After hearing Hecate's voice, Lin Ze hadn't finished smoking her second cigarette yet. She took out a box, threw the cigarette butt into it, and walked into the room.

"Didn't you just have dinner?"

Lin Ze said to her with a smile.

"I...I'm just hungry."

"Okay." Lin Ze said to the executive force guards at the door.

"Go find Bai Ran and make her another midnight snack. Sautéed pig's trotters with soy sauce and braised prawns. Make more. And get her some wine."

goo goo-

Just hearing Lin Ze's words, Hecate's stomach started to growl. She swallowed and glared at Lin Ze, her tone no longer as wary as before.

"...Is the food this good every day?"

"Of course." Lin Ze said with a smile.

Of course that's impossible. Never mind. Just fool her first.

It has to be said that after being the deputy director for such a long time, Lin Ze's biggest learning experience is that she has learned to tell lies. In addition, under the influence of a director like Chang Yue, her personality is naturally not much better.

"...will you give me new clothes? And a bed."

"You will have your own room, and the Special Management Bureau will provide you with uniforms. I will personally pay you a salary every month, and you can buy anything you like."

"..." Hecate's eyes flickered a little, and finally she said as if she had made up her mind.

"I, I don't know what Moriarty is planning, but Zhong Huaian... he seems to have gathered all his former subordinates and is heading towards Pingjing City through the Realm's Imperial Decree. He's a descendant of a clan of war. If Pingjing City becomes a battlefield, his characteristics and power will be amplified to the peak."

Lin Ze nodded slightly.

"I see. However, we've already thought of this and made plans for it. Is there anything else we don't know?"

Hecate racked her brains and thought for a long time, and finally came up with something.

"Ah... By the way, I heard something from Plague... Li Chengtian..."
