"The power of this ocean is enough to trap you forever. Your player card will also be sealed. Your organization has been annexed by me—"

"Leader of the House of Evolution, 'Holy Lord' of the 'Perfect Man', you have been defeated!"

Hearing these words.

The pale eyes of the 'Holy Lord' still showed no sadness or joy, and his long, almost transparent hair was still flowing silently.

His attitude made the person coming from the opposite side sigh.

"It seems that no matter how much I say, you won't show any reaction... Never mind." The evil man exhaled and said, "It's a pity, but I was going to give you a chance - a chance to escape. As long as you are willing to be loyal to me, to our 'God', I would consider letting you out. But now it seems that you don't want this chance -"

"To be honest, I still admire your abilities. You are very talented and ambitious. You are the first to become a 'Silver Player' in reality, and you can use the dungeon world as an 'experimental site' to study the 'degree of evolution' of the paradise. You can even compete with me for nearly two months despite suffering heavy damage."

"Although all your achievements have been taken by me, I still value your ability. If you are willing, I can give you the position of 'Apostle of God', even if I have to be inferior to you!"

Such sounds echo among the waves and backflows of the deep sea.

As the faint light spread, all that was obtained was a long silence.

The man with the evil face laughed softly, shook his head and was about to leave.

That's when.

The 'Holy Lord' suddenly spoke!

His voice was still as dull as ever, as frozen as ice.

"You, put your hand into 'Daxia'?"

"Ok?"

The evil man paused for a moment at the bottom of the sea. He glanced back at the Holy Lord and happened to meet the pair of pale eyes.

But without waiting for his answer.

The Holy Lord continued to speak - his words seemed to be asking questions, but his tone was full of affirmation.

"The Great Xia Kingdom is not simple. I also regarded that area as the best 'experimental site' like you, but the facts have proved my failure..."

"Because of the 'Ruler'?"

Although the evil man was somewhat surprised that the Holy Lord would actually say this to him, he still responded: "A mere 'ruler' is no match for a 'god'—"

The Holy Lord shook his head.

"You rely too much on 'God' and underestimate 'people'. The reason why Daxia is so far ahead of the world and has produced many 'Silver' is because it never underestimates the power of 'people' - not only the rulers, but also other people, such as the 'Spirit King'." He said, "And this is also why I am not sure about cooperating with you."

“A lot of people see me as a demon, a lot of people see me as a devil.”

"But there is at least one thing I am better than you."

"I firmly believe that human beings can achieve perfection through their own strength - and will not rely on the power of 'outer gods'."

"The power of humanity itself?"

The evil person laughed again.

"That's just because - you haven't seen the true power of God!"

"It's not the right time yet. When the time is right, you will see it. Under the power of God, nothing is worth looking up to."

"The same is true of Paradise itself!"

Such words drifted away.

The figure that came from the deep sea slowly disappeared.

As the ocean currents rolled, the glimmer of light quickly went out.

The deep and distant world fell into deathly silence again. The figure of the 'Holy Lord' stood there, his pale eyes slowly closing.

...

"Spirit King, thank you for your help this time... If it weren't for you, I'm afraid we really wouldn't be able to find these criminals hiding in the department!"

After a while.

In the 'Paradise Department' of Jiangcheng University in Jiangcheng City, Great Xia Country, the towering high walls surrounded the campus. Li Re, dressed in black, looked at the middle-aged man in front of him who was nodding and bowing to him with a look of gratitude - and whose eyes were full of 'fear'. He looked back at the group of 'students' staggering behind him, and couldn't help but grin, as he could understand the other party's fear and trepidation.

After finding the 'unstable factor' and successfully prying information from them, Li Re achieved his goal and opened the entrance and exit of his personal copy.

The direct leaders of the Paradise Department of Jiangcheng City received the information that the "situation has been resolved" and rushed over in a hurry - just as Li Re guessed, they invited him here to clear up these possible unstable factors.

But they themselves can't be sure.

So there’s no way to tell Li Reming.

One can only hope that Li Re can discover something - it would be even better if he could find it out directly like this!

However, as soon as they arrived, what they saw was a horrifying scene of a group of students being hung up by the ghost tongue of the 'ghost head' and 'walking' out of the ghost town and returning to the Paradise Academy campus in the real world.

to be frank.

The fact that they didn't faint from fright is a sign of their extremely high mental quality.

It is only normal to feel fear and trepidation when facing the culprit behind all this!

In fact, this organization is called 'Paradise Department', but its direct managers are just ordinary people, not players.

After all, this is not a security department like the Cleaning Department that can rely on its military strength.

Educational institutions need to have sufficient management capabilities.

After all, there are very few players with senior management experience.

Ordinary people can only take on the role first, and then gradually transition.

Of course, the top managers were ordinary people, and following behind them were both men and women, including many players, even "bronze-level" players, and all of them were very afraid of Li Re without exception.

In response, Li Re just waved his hand: "I only solved the 'source', but what has been spread out cannot be taken back - those are defective 'evolution drugs'. Although they can indeed stimulate the potential of the awakened, they will also make them lose control. This kind of loss of control has already occurred and it is difficult to eliminate it directly. We can only guide them step by step."

"But fortunately, these students are just unconscious now. With their previous experiences, they won't be as blindly confident as before when they wake up. They should be easier to guide."

"You can ask these three for specific things. They are illegal players from the international community, and they know a lot of information." Li Re pointed at the three people next to him who were tied up like dumplings after he had questioned them.

The three men fell there, unable to move, and didn't even have the ability to self-destruct.

"Yes Yes Yes..."

After hearing this, the Paradise Department manager who was just an ordinary person nodded and bowed even more. As an ordinary person, he was terrified when facing ordinary players, let alone such a top player!

"That's it then—we'll be leaving first."

Li Re waved his hand and looked at the girl with long light purple hair, the 'witch' Yin Bai, who was sitting in the wheelchair next to him.

Yin Bai opened his light purple eyes and blinked, without any objection.

"Are you leaving now, seniors?" At this time, An Xia suddenly walked out of the Paradise Department.

"Now that I'm done with my work, of course I have to go back."

Li Re looked at the silver-haired school girl, and seeing the reluctance written in her eyes, he said casually: "But if you have any questions, you can always come to the 'Ghost Shop' to consult me."

"Since we're from the same school, I'll give you a 20% discount on the consultation fee."

“Can’t it be free?”

An Xia smiled.

"Sister, free things are the most expensive!"

Li Re smiled half-jokingly: "Okay, let's stop here. I have to go back first."

The intelligence gained in this half day was not much, but it was not little either.

He still needs to do more specific organization and analysis.

Besides.

The little sword fairy who was about to start the 'trial' was also waiting for him to return.

"Is that so...then goodbye, seniors!"

An Xia stood still and waved his hand.

The other Paradise Department executives just watched as the girl waved goodbye to the Spirit King in a familiar manner, not knowing whether to be in awe or envy.

But no one noticed.

The light in the eyes of the girl who waved goodbye to Li Re with her back to them.

And a hint of inexplicable madness hidden under the raised red lips.

"Senior Li Re is indeed as powerful and excellent as the legend says... He is so handsome... He is so handsome that I want to keep him by my side forever - I really want to, I really want to..."

An Xia thought so.

The face becomes slightly rosy.

She is so——

Longing for.

Li Re, who was walking a few steps forward and leaving the Paradise Department, stopped at the same time and looked back.

"Are. What's wrong?"

Yin Bai tilted his head and asked in confusion.

"I was just thinking... the scope of the 'evolution drug' should be the entire Paradise Department's students, right?"

Li Re looked thoughtful and said, "Under the influence of this flawed evolutionary medicine, the mentality of students in the entire department has been flawed to varying degrees - so, what about An Xia?"

"Don't forget, she is also a student here!"

The sickly and quiet girl was stunned.

Yes, An Xia is also a student of the Paradise Department, but her performance along the way was very normal...so normal that it’s a little abnormal!

Chapter 425: A sudden change in the conversation with Qu Shenyin

If something is abnormal, there must be something wrong.

Li Re and Yin Bai, who have experienced so many paradise missions, naturally could not understand this truth. They also understood that appearing very normal in an environment where everyone else is abnormal is also another form of "abnormality".

Now think about it, the girl named An Xia still behaved very normally in an environment that had already been infected by defective evolutionary drugs - isn't that the case?

After leaving Paradise Department, Li Re stopped at the campus of Jiangcheng University. The high wall surrounding the entire "department" was still in his sight. It was like a huge barrier at the end of the buildings in the university town. The midday sun from the blue sky was shining brightly on it, and the reflected light made him squint.

Yin Bai's expression became even more frozen.

"Are, do you want to go back and take a look?" The frail and quiet girl with long light purple hair sat in a wheelchair and looked up at Li Re. Her beautiful eyes and eyelashes trembled slightly and shone brightly.

She had a very good impression of the lively and well-behaved silver-haired school girl, and she approved of her character and talent - otherwise she would not have asked Li Re whether to bring her into the 'Ghost Shop' before, and now she certainly did not want anything to happen to her.

Li Re withdrew his gaze and shook his head.

He said:

"Not in a hurry."

"'Defects' are not so easy to solve. If they haven't completely erupted, even if I'm a silver player now, it's still difficult to 'pick' them out."

That may well involve 'consciousness' or even 'soul'.

If it was just superficial ability or physical defects, Li Re would have seen it directly just now!

Once the realm of consciousness and soul is touched, Li Re will not be able to completely resolve it in advance unless he uses the 'Soul Hook' to pull out An Xia's soul to find out the truth... But if he does that, An Xia will die.

"Then...what should we do?" Yin Bai paused. Looking at Li Re's attitude, she knew that since Li Re had thought of it, he must have thought of what to do!

"It's very simple."

Li Re raised his hand: "Just 'observe'."

"Although it seems a little 'abnormal' that An Xia is so normal in such an environment, maybe we are overthinking it. Maybe her talent is so extraordinary that she can suppress the defects brought by the incomplete evolution medicine?"

'Observation'?

Yin Bai opened his mouth and was about to say something.

The crisp ringtone of the cell phone suddenly rang, and Li Re grinned: "Speak of the devil, and he will appear!"

Cao Cao?

Yin Bai was stunned again, and then he saw Li Re took out his phone from his pocket: "An Xia is not suitable to join Gui Lai Dian now. The level gap is too big. If there are any flaws, they will only be infinitely magnified, which will be difficult to deal with."
