These weird things are all mine

Just let the boundary be annihilated directly?

How else can I deal with this? Just wait to die!

What the "company" is most worried about is the emergence of such rogue monsters that would directly overturn the table. It has no way to deal with it and can only wait for destruction to occur.

It would be even more terrible if the "Pioneers" were allowed to master this strange power. They would like all boundaries to be annihilated before they can start their so-called "New World" plan.

Whatever the case, it's not good news for the Company.

"besides..."

As Luo Ling spoke, he deliberately dragged out his voice, and the hearts of several directors were in their throats.

The impatient boy wanted to curse because Luo Ling was deliberately keeping him in suspense, but he was afraid of upsetting Luo Ling, so he refused to say anything and had to hold it in, with even his expression a little distorted.

After whetting people's appetite, Luo Ling smiled slightly.

"That's another question."

"You he..."

The young man was halfway through swearing when the old man waved his hand and his shadow disappeared immediately.

"I'm sorry, he has a rather irritable temper. I hope Miss Luo Ling can understand." The old man said cheerfully, "Just tell me what you want."

"I heard that there are a lot of good things in the company's secret collection..."

Before Luo Ling finished speaking, the old man stretched out a finger and said,

"One chance to choose a secret treasure. If the information you report is valuable enough, we will increase it as appropriate. There is no upper limit."

"...OK."

What else could Luo Ling say? As expected of a director of the "company", he enjoyed talking about business.

"This weird person is not able to destroy the boundaries in all situations."

Luo Ling's first sentence reassured the two directors a little. As long as it was not unconditional, it would be fine. Otherwise, they would have no way to deal with it.

"Annihilation can only occur when the boundary collapses and the collapse is extremely unstable at the moment of collapse."

Luo Ling directly told her the limiting conditions of her "devouring" limit. Anyway, she had no intention of using it again, and she probably wouldn't need to use it in the future.

It can even be said that Luo Ling wanted to avoid continuing to use the evil ghost transformation and stop before more serious consequences occurred.

"In that case..."

The old man and the woman looked at each other, and saw some fear in each other's eyes.

This condition is relatively harsh, but not that difficult to achieve. Even if the "Company" does not take the initiative to trigger the "boundary collapse", there will be other unpredictable disasters that will cause Victoria to restart.

The seventy-four boundary collapses were not all caused by the "Company".

"In the future, I must be more careful and cautious when handling matters in this area." The old man said to himself, and then heaved a sigh of relief. At least now, the problem that had plagued the "company" for several years has been solved.

"Can this information increase the number of secret hidings?" Luo Ling blinked.

"...Can I?"

The old man turned and looked at the woman.

In the "company", the director in charge of managing the secret treasure is a woman.

"Twice, no more."

The woman crossed her legs slightly, the firelight from the fireplace obscured her eyes behind her gold-rimmed glasses, and Luo Ling could only vaguely sense that she was staring at him.

"...All right."

Luo Ling thought about it and felt that the price seemed quite reasonable, so he stopped bargaining.

To be honest, she was not very good at negotiating business, and her sister was better at this aspect. Even though Luo Ling now had her sister's memories, it was difficult for her to learn her superb bargaining skills.

"Besides this, is there anything else worth noting?" the old man asked.

"I can't think of it right now," Luo Ling said, "maybe I'll remember it later."

"Well, in that case... Miss Luo Ling, you are welcome to visit this place again when you remember."

The old man looked like a good man, with a reassuring smile on his face. "We are just a few shadows now, so I won't see you off for long. Please hold the door for a moment."

Luo Ling stood up and bowed to the two directors.

"Farewell."

The old man and the woman watched her leave the wooden house, and only after the wooden door creaked shut did the boy's shadow reappear.

"She hid a lot of things." The boy said in a deep voice.

For example, why did Luo Ling know such detailed information about this strange person, why did he know so many details of the plan back then... There is no answer to all these whys.

"That's as it should be," the woman said slowly, "Everyone has secrets. No one is an exception."

"What a pity! It seems the little girl has a lot to do with the Fate Society. If she is killed, it will cause a lot of trouble that will be difficult to deal with." The old man still had a cheerful expression.

After receiving the news about Luo Ling, the old man's first thought was rather simple and crude, but after considering it again and again, he still sent a formal invitation to Luo Ling through the board of directors.

"...You have an inexplicable similarity with the 'philosopher'." The woman looked at the old man and said silently.

You know, the one who made the choice to let the "Fire Granter" to sacrifice the "Hunting" team in a conspiracy was neither the woman nor the boy, but this kind old man.

"Really? Maybe." The old man shrugged and rubbed his hands in his sleeves, seeming a little cold. "We are brothers after all."

Chapter 6 Today's victory or defeat is Miss Luo Ling's defeat (5k)

"...You never laid a hand on me?"

In the pitch-black void, Luo Ling turned his head slightly towards the direction of the wooden house and murmured softly.

She felt out several silver-white hairs from the back of her neck, all of which were the hyphae of Puppet Song.

Although Luo Ling in her current state was unable to use Puppet Song's abilities, she left a few strands of hyphae with simple autonomous consciousness on her body, just like the hair she gave to Odetta.

Under normal circumstances, these mycelium strands are no different from ordinary hair, but as long as someone uses a certain ability against her, the mycelium can use its second ability "reading" to stop the use of the ability.

In addition, Luo Ling had been prepared for a soul search from the very beginning. For this reason, there was a strand of hair containing some false memories, and the soul search could only find the memories here.

Playing with memories is Puppet Rumor's forte. Even in the weirdness, only "taboo"-level beings can surpass Puppet Rumor in this aspect.

"How rare! I thought the 'company' was going to play dirty tricks on me, but it turned out to be just a fair transaction. I really wrongly blamed the directors."

"Or is it because you are afraid? Haha, no matter what... it's not a loss to get some benefits from them."

Luo Ling twisted the mycelium slightly with his fingertips and put it back to the back of his head.

These mycelium have never been used. They are all Luo Ling's own power and cannot be wasted. At least they can be worth the friendship of a princess.

As for whether the several directors of the "company" would have murderous intentions towards her, Luo Ling had never worried about this when she dared to come to the appointment.

First of all, this is a formal invitation. Many people know about it. It can almost be said that everyone is paying attention to it. Luo Ling is still an employee of the "company" on the surface.

If the directors still wanted to kill her under such circumstances, they would be no different from being crazy.

Secondly, even if the directors were really crazy and wanted to kill Luo Ling... the possibility of success was almost zero.

It is not easy to kill a person with the strange path of "Silence". Unless Luo Ling takes the initiative to use the "Absolute Blade" to pierce her own heart, it will take some time before she can fall into a state of death.

There is no way to die completely.

The reason why my sister finally let Luo Ling eat her was because she knew that if Puppet Yao wanted to be truly killed, it could only be done in this way.

After Luo Ling walked out of this fake "Realm of Nothingness", Melissa was standing at the dividing line waiting for her, with the same smile on her face, as if it had not changed from beginning to end.

But compared to before, it seems less false.

"The directors are quite satisfied with this meeting. Miss Luo Ling, when do you plan to get the secret treasure?" Melissa walked beside Luo Ling, slightly half a step behind her, and her attitude was obviously more respectful than at the beginning.

"It's better to do it today than to wait for another day. Let's do it today." Luo Ling said.

She didn’t know when she would come to the “company” headquarters next time.

"No problem, Miss Luo Ling." Melissa bowed slightly and said, "It will be delivered to you later. You can take your time to choose."

After Luo Ling's meeting with the directors ended, Melissa was the first to receive news of the meeting results.

At the same time, she also confirmed a fact from the directors that Miss Luo Ling did not come back alive by cheating as rumored by the outside world.

She actually stayed in the forbidden land of death for a full month and a half, and got a glimpse of some information that even the directors were eager to get.

This in itself was considered a breaking news, not to mention that the directors had granted Miss Luo Ling a rather astonishing level of authority.

It's amazing... If Miss Luo Ling was not "outsourced" but a "full-time job", with this authority, her position should be directly upgraded to P6 level, and if she is strong enough, she can be promoted to P7 or even P8.

Get promoted and get a raise, and you can reach the sky in one step.

"The directors are looking forward to your next visit," Melissa said softly.

The board of directors formally granted Luo Ling the authority to enter and exit the restricted area at any time. No matter when, as long as this authority has not been revoked, Luo Ling can come here to meet with the directors at any time without going through any procedures or anyone's permission.

This is an opportunity to get directly to the top. Even Melissa, the full-time secretary of the board of directors, does not have such authority. It would be a lie to say that I am not envious.

"Okay, got it." Luo Ling just nodded calmly.

Ah...

The directors all knew that she was hiding something, and the so-called not remembering was just an excuse. Some chips can only play a better role at the right time.

However, although it is a more suitable arrangement for Luo Ling, for the "company" and the directors, this kind of control is not very pleasant.

This was also the reason why Luo Ling was puzzled as to why the directors did not search her soul directly, but instead conducted the transaction honestly, even though it was impossible to get any results even by searching her soul.

"Is it because you don't know the meaning of this authority?" Melissa thought to herself as she looked at Luo Ling's indifferent expression.

But in any case, she needs to change some attitudes.

Melissa's position is actually just P7. The reason why she is so important in the "company" is because she has the channels to communicate with the board of directors, even if not face to face.

The board of directors does not grant access rights similar to the one Miss Luo Ling has very often, and at most only once in a while.

But...

Others were confused and thought this was some great thing, but Luo Ling, who was in the middle of it, knew everything clearly.

Like a "company", the directors only care about interests and results. It doesn't matter how shady the process or how despicable the means are. Everything they do is to uphold "justice" and "morality".

Even if an old man looks like a good person, his apology and sadness may be real, but when faced with a similar choice, the choice he makes will not change.

Therefore, this is not actually an opportunity to report to the emperor, but just a transaction that has not been completed, leaving both parties with a sense of face.

Luo Ling even suspected that the board of directors had some unknown plan by making such a big announcement about their importance to her.

After experiencing a series of events, Luo Ling no longer has naive ideas about the "company". She does not want herself or the people close to her to become "victims".

"Miss Luo Ling, here, here!"

Not long after she walked out of the office area, Luo Ling saw a small red figure jumping and waving its hands at her, with the corners of its mouth unconsciously raised slightly.

"Well, I'm back."

Elsa led her back to the reception room. As soon as she entered the room, Luo Ling saw the lines on Cen Xiangyun and Lu Manqing's faces. She couldn't help but show a surprised expression, "What are you two doing..."

"We are playing cards."

Cen Xiangyun pointed at the cards on the table. The turtle on her face was already half painted, and there was a sense of innocence between the strokes.

"The same to you..."

Luo Ling looked at Lu Manqing who was sitting opposite. There were tiger stripes on her face and the word "king" on her forehead was very domineering, but her beard was not finished yet.

"Same as her."

Lu Manqing put down the card in his hand and said, "Miss Luo Ling, if you had come a little later, the painting on our faces would have been almost finished."

"..."

Luo Ling was silent for a while, then asked, "What are you playing?"

"Fight the Landlord."

"Aren't there three people playing Landlord? Oh, by the way, where is Miss Eve?" Luo Ling sat down, but saw a deck of cards covering the seat where he was sitting.

"The painting on her face is finished, so she quit the game." Lu Manqing said, "But, Miss Luo Ling, you are sitting in Elsa's seat."

"what?"

Luo Ling stood up quickly, and Elsa was still next to her.
