"Is this the candidate for the next Hall Executive Officer, 'Black Goat'? He is really young."

In the darkness, an old voice came from beside An Xiao, accompanied by a cough, which attracted her attention.

An Xiao turned his head to look, unsure of the other person's location, but deeply curious about the voice.

Why is there the voice of an old man?

An Xiao and his mother sat in the best viewing position, able to clearly see every detail of the duel on the stage, including the swiftness of the woman named Nuolu's moves, which was even as fast as his own brother's.

From what the old man said, it seems that Nolu is a candidate for the palace executive?

"Long Binyu is also outstanding. The family has been observing him for five years." An Moshu's voice came from the left, as if responding to the old man.

"In the past five years, the family has tried to provide him with help and convenience, but he has rejected them all. It's incredible."

"He actually refused the An family's help?" The old man was surprised for a moment. "It's really rare. If I remember correctly, he is already 26 years old."

"Long Binyu's personality is like that of a proud lion. He cannot tolerate any failure on his own. He desperately wants to get the family's attention to prove his worth, but he doesn't want the family's help, thinking it is a question. Haha, little does he know that the family will help a person because they think that person is valuable."

"So he is a naughty child." The old man laughed, "He thinks he is a genius, but he doesn't know that the other person is the real genius. If I remember correctly, that Nuolu is the same age as Master An Ran."

"Also 23 years old, but two months younger." An Moshu said calmly, "In fact, you are willing to see this scene, right?"

"Hahaha, Madam, you finally figured it out." The old man made a rustling sound while speaking, as if he was scratching his head. "We just want Long Binyu to duel with Nuolu. It's time for that proud lion to prove himself. In fact, before I came here, I promised him that as long as he could defeat the candidate of the Hall, I would give him a super devouring weapon."

"The Elders' Council is as generous as ever," An Moshu said, "but what if he loses?"

The old man smiled strangely:

"If he loses, he loses. Long Binyu was originally a cheap executive. What this family lacks the most is executives, right? If Nuolu defeats him, it just proves his worth, and then we have to take our eyes off that lion. We are very happy to train a new Hall of Fame. It is said that all the ministers at the FACA headquarters unanimously agreed that Nuolu would be the next Hall of Fame executive."

"You can't say for sure. The siblings don't think so." An Moshu reached out and held her niece An Xiao's hand, saying, "They have someone else in mind. Do you know that woman called Sister Tang?"

"Who doesn't know the leader of the special forces team?"

After hearing this, the old man became angry and full of complaints.

"One year ago, when I went on vacation to an island, she brought two helicopters to search my villa, saying that it was a drug stash! What does drug raiding have to do with FACA? I really don't know where she got this bullshit information from. I was just having a pool party at the time, it really spoiled my fun!"

"Old but still strong." Xu Yuqing spoke lightly beside An Xiao.

Hearing her voice, the old man shut up immediately.

"The special service team likes to track down clues about alien species in the name of drug eradication. After all, they have a universal pass. As long as the special service team is willing, they do have the right to eradicate drug abuse and will eliminate harm to the people of the world." An Moshu glanced into the darkness.

"Are you sure we're having a pool party?"

"Madam, you know me. I don't like to keep little girls of different species in captivity like they do..." After saying this, the old man shut up again.

An Xiao thought the conversation next to him was a joke and didn't pay much attention to it because the duel on the stage had already entered its climax.

A huge blue light flashed, and Nuolu flashed in four directions along Long Binyu at an odd speed, leaving deep marks on his armor with every strike. The man kept losing his balance and couldn't stand up completely. He could only stabilize his body in a half-kneeling posture.

What a terrifying speed, she is indeed a candidate for the next Hall Executive Officer. Although she is only second-class, she has a strength that is infinitely close to first-class. Is this really her own speed? The only person who has such a speed is probably An Ran.

Long Binyu raised his arms and gathered his strength. The pain in his body caused his armor to shrink continuously. He felt that his body was being squeezed, but he couldn't think too much about it.

The thought of proving himself kept flooding into his mind. If he failed at this moment, wouldn't he become a clown? Wouldn't it mean that he was wrong from the beginning? If that happened, the family would feel that they were worthless.

Long Binyu raised his head and observed the woman's repetitive movements, and suddenly he thought of something.

Since the opponent can display a speed close to that of an alien species, why don't I fight him as if he were an alien species?

The real way an Executor fights is... just to kill the other party.

The black and red armor shone brightly in the dim firelight. Long Binyu deliberately took the initiative to meet the three slashing blows. Since he could not keep up with the opponent's speed, he decided not to follow him. He treated the opponent as a fleeing alien and waited for the opportunity to kill him with one blow.

Before this, Long Binyu actually still left room for maneuver, because he knew the other party's identity, he was the head of a family and also a candidate for the Hall. Killing him would definitely cause a huge impact, and the An family would not be able to explain to the FACA headquarters. After all, the people who controlled FACA were not the family, but the brother and sister.

But now he can no longer care about so many things. He has disappointed his family and has lost his value, which is more desperate than death. So what else can he think about?

Nolu left the twenty-fourth mark on the black and red armor.

The twenty-fifth deep scar also followed...

Twenty-sixth...Thirty...

The speed is very fast, but the faster the person is, the more deadly the flaws they reveal are!

Chapter 34...There is a turning point!

Nolu repeated the previous slashing moves like an elegant court dancer. At the beginning, she treated the opponent as a human being in the duel, so she held back everywhere, but she did not expect that when the sword was swung for the thirty-fourth time, Long Binyu's eyes changed.

Those were a pair of eyes completely filled with black and red phagocytes, and a large number of phagocytes poured out from the gaps between the skin and armor!

It's gluttony!

Nuolu was shocked. She had noticed that there was something wrong with the man's eyes before, but she didn't expect that he would actually binge eat in such a place.

The explosive speed came at an overwhelming force. Nuolu quickly stepped back to dodge, but found herself being fixed by those terrifying eyes!

His eyes actually followed me!

In less than half a second, a black and red figure appeared in front of Nuolu's face, with vicious and violent eyes.

Everyone exclaimed. The man's fingers were covered with black and red armor pieces, which turned into sharp hook blades. Just one punch could tear a person's body apart. He punched the woman in the face mercilessly. Everyone could imagine the bloody scene of Nolu being pierced through the head.

There was no fear on Nuolu's face, only a brief surprise. She tried to block the attack with her sword, but was unexpectedly pushed back several meters through the sword and fell to the ground.

Just as she was about to stand up and fight back, Long Binyu had already appeared next to her head, with only a dull look in his horrified eyes.

So that's how it is... Nuolu smiled bitterly in her heart. Long Binyu's ability to endure was much weaker than hers. When he was in the state of possessed and devouring martial arts, he was forced to binge eat because of the pain and torture caused by her repeated slashing.

Nuolu had expected that he would tear her to pieces, but she couldn't get up. Under the man's gaze, she seemed to have lost control of her body.

What's going on!

Nuo Lu's expression finally changed drastically.

At this moment, a blazing light enveloped the entire hall, and an unclear shadow appeared beside it.

An Ran suddenly appeared and caught Long Binyu's punch with his hand! He raised the terrifying black and red sickle calmly and shattered the black and red armor that completely covered the man with one blow!

The hall fell into deathly silence until they noticed that An Xin had been standing at the door, watching everything.

"Thank you..." Nolu took a breath and closed her eyes.

Chapter 320 Dream Death (Twenty)

In the family palace, a group of old men stood in the garden of the manor. The night breeze blew the edges of their velvet robes. Before their eyes was a cluster of blooming flowers, surrounded by large groups of butterflies of various colors.

Their decayed eyes are always indifferent.

"That man actually chose to overeat. Are we too harsh on him?" an old man asked.

"That possessed swallowing weapon was developed by the family itself, but it's broken." said another old man.

"It doesn't matter if it's broken. It's an unstable defective product. It seems that we need to further promote the research of the possessed Devouring Weapon. That man thinks he is a lion, but he can only rely on the power brought by the Devouring Weapon. It is still unrealistic to train him to become the new Hall of Fame."

"He almost killed Nuolu. Although we also want to know how strong these two are, we don't want that result to happen. Did you see the look in An Ran's eyes when he appeared? He was looking at us, even though we were deep in the darkness."

The old man in the lead sighed and put his hands behind his back.

"Those eyes... are like a group of monsters hiding in the abyss staring at us. How terrifying."

An elder behind him was leaning on a cane, trembling.)

"This time, Lord 'Rain Curtain' brought that child with him. When should we meet her? She is the real meaning of our existence. If we cannot stop her from being born in the future, then we can only place all our hopes on her."

"It's too early to say that now." The old man in the lead shrugged, "Let's wait a little longer."

"What about that man?" one of the elders said, "Should we abandon him? His devouring weapon was shattered during the gluttony, and the process of devouring his flesh and blood has had an irreversible impact."

"Let's take a closer look. After all... he was trained by us elders on our own initiative. Even though the Patriarch and Lord 'Rain Curtain' acquiesce to all this, we still have to prove our worth, right?"

"That Nuolu..." an old man said, "She does have the potential to be a quasi-palace master. Should we give her a chance?"

"She is too arrogant. She didn't come here just to attend the banquet from the beginning. Those arrogant eyes are just fake, but they hide her ambition." The old man in the lead said coldly.

"A 23-year-old woman dug out the secret of the bloodline on her own. If a person with the An bloodline actively engages in binge eating, they can tame the Devouring Sorrow in the Devouring Wuli and use the phagocytes transformed from their own flesh and blood for their own use. Using this method, they can continuously improve the limits of their body and eventually become a half-human, half-monster comparable to the Half Sorrow... No one knows this secret except the core members of the family."

"Her father told her?"

"Her blood comes from her mother. Remember that swan girl forty years ago?"

"I remember now. At the banquet forty years ago, the girl from District 11 seemed to be only years old at that time. She was the child of the Black Swan."

"That child is Nuolu's mother, which means Nuolu is actually the granddaughter of Black Swan." The old man in the lead said, "So I don't want her to be killed by Long Binyu, even if she came to this island with ambitions."

"I seem to understand. Black Swan's daughter died eleven years ago. So Nolu was only twelve years old at that time."

"She died in the basement. When Nolu found her mother, she saw her loved one being surrounded and eaten by large tentacles. Those were vine-like tentacles, unlike Naya's tentacles that looked like jellyfish, octopus, and leeches."

"Aren't Naya's tentacles ribbon-shaped? Just like kelp." An elder went off topic.

“Sometimes it’s band-shaped, sometimes it’s jellyfish-shaped, anyway it changes.” An elder also said.

“But most of them are a combination of leeches and octopuses.” The leading old man said, and was stunned for a moment.

"We are getting off topic." He cleared his throat. "We don't need to pay attention to the shape of Naya's tentacles. Just leave it to the young lady to deal with. Nolu saw her mother being eaten by tentacles with her own eyes. What a cruel scene it was. When she found out that these tentacles were connected to her mother's body, the young girl was in despair."

"Those tentacles came from her mother? Haha, is Black Swan's daughter also following her mother's example and becoming a half-human alien?"

"The Black Swan's daughter was finally attacked. When she delved into the power of her bloodline and became a half-human, her mind became confused and she even thought of hurting her own daughter. At that moment, she was finally terrified and chose to stop it all, but it was too late."

"She was eaten by her own phagocytes." An old man said after a moment of silence, "Nolu witnessed it all, but how did you know?"

"Her mother is the daughter of the Black Swan after all. We found the child on the day of the accident and learned all this from Nolu through hypnosis and brainwashing. However, it was also at that time that Nolu used the butterfly family emblem to find the An family. Later, she delved into the relationship between the paternal Wilson family and the An family."

The leading man turned around and gently waved his right hand with a deep look in his eyes.

"Nolu, this time you bring not only ambition, but also hatred."

……

There were few people in the restaurant shrouded in dim light, except for a few waiters coming and going.

After watching the duel, the rest of the people walked out of the palace to rest. They were allowed to tour the island. The newcomers who came to the Island of Death for the first time were curious about the overall picture of the island. Instead of feeling the oppressive feeling from the gazes of their family members in the palace, it would be better to go out and get some fresh air.

There were three people sitting at the long table on the steps, one was An Ran, one was the housekeeper Ling, and the rest was Nuo Lu.

Nolu didn't eat, but looked at the man in front of her.

"Thank you for your help just now." Nuolu rarely showed her pride and expressed her gratitude.

"If you die, does it mean that the name Nuolu will no longer be on the list of candidates for the next 'Black Goat' of the Hall?" An Ran ate a piece of bacon, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and looked at the woman in front of him.

Ling on the side just smiled. As a housekeeper, she should have been with An Xin, but An Xin disappeared all of a sudden, so she had to sit next to the second young master to show that as a housekeeper, she was definitely not slacking off.

Hearing what the man said, Nuo Lu pursed her lips. In fact, she was not sure whether Director An was telling the truth or not. Since he had already said it, she had to respond.

"Does this count as a language question?" Nolu simply replied, "But why did you save me?"

"I saved you because I saw someone dying." An Ran said calmly, "Don't you think this kind of conversation is boring?"

"It's quite boring."

"In that case, why don't you leave?" An Ran looked towards the door and said, "My saving you doesn't mean you are so special, nor is it the reason why you took the initiative to sit across from me. You have already thanked me. If you have anything else to say, please don't beat around the bush. Although I have free time now, it doesn't mean it can be wasted."

"I'm just using the meal time to communicate. It's not a waste, right?" Nuo Lu couldn't help but say.

Looking at An Ran's eyes, for some reason, she couldn't keep that cold and indifferent look.

There is a strange feeling of oppression.

Is this the terrifying look of the director that has been circulating in the FACA headquarters?

Chapter 321: The Gift of Tyranny (I)

An Ran wanted to eat quietly. The moment she entered the restaurant, she had already smelled the smell on the plate. The smell of Devouring Sorrow was not unfamiliar to her, and she was not surprised why such food appeared in her family.

He actually had some awareness of his family, but he didn't say anything. He just thought that if there was really any problem with the family, it would be his sister who should worry about it. He just needed to stay in the right place. Going deep into it to satisfy his curiosity? It was just a waste of time.

There were two people next to me watching me eat, which made me feel uncomfortable.

Ling's gaze was fine. She didn't pay much attention to me, but only looked over occasionally when I was talking.

The girl named Nolu opposite had a very obvious intention, she was intentionally touching him.

The woman seemed to be savoring the red wine, but her eyes were always cautiously glancing at An Ran, as if she wanted to say something.

An Ran spoke calmly:

"If you have anything else to say, please tell me. If you can't find a suitable place to rest, I will arrange it for you."

"Then thank you very much, Master An." Nuo Lu did not refuse, "I'm just curious about where you went during the banquet just now."

"Is it important? Everyone has their own things to do, even me."
