The woman slowly spoke, "We invited you here not for anything else but for what you saw and heard in the Realm of Nothingness - this is very important to us."

At this point, her tone became heavier, "It even concerns... whether to restart again to avoid the next "taboo" disaster."

"This is a deal. You can tell me what you want." The young man looked at Luo Ling with burning eyes. "As long as you can provide us with relevant information, the company can do its best to meet your requirements."

Luo Ling calmed himself down and regained his composure.

Regardless of the conspiracy this time, this is a rare opportunity to face the top management of the "company" directly.

She had made sufficient preparations for this meeting.

"Okay," Luo Ling nodded slightly, "but I need to know some prerequisites, such as which "taboo" is involved in this "taboo" disaster. "

Could it be related to "Naraku"?

As if they had anticipated Luo Ling's question from the beginning, several directors looked at each other, and the old man said, "I can tell you, but please keep it confidential. There is no need to swear an oath. The "order" is not solid, and I believe in your character."

Luo Ling can eat up the gaze of "Order", and the directors also have other ways to avoid the influence of "Order", which is not difficult for people at their level.

Therefore, these people are also banned guests of "Heavenly Speaker".

"Of course."

Luo Ling nodded. As "Luo Ling", she would definitely keep it a secret.

But the same cannot be said for "White Witch" and "Purple Pearl", if the Tea Party is willing to pay a good price.

"hehe."

The woman smiled mysteriously, and looked at Luo Ling with a somewhat profound gaze.

"Let me tell you. This time the "forbidden" disaster is the "return to the abyss" of "death" and the existence of "eternal life". The specific details involve the "pioneers" and us, so I won't go into details."

Ultimately, the directors can trust Luo Ling, but not completely.

Of course, Luo Ling did not expect the directors to be willing to tell him everything. It was enough to know who the "taboo" was.

However, "Guixu"...

“While on the train, the artist seemed to have used the power of Guixu.”

Luo Ling's eyes flickered with some thoughts.

"I know what you're thinking. Yes, it's about the powerful enemy you once encountered, the artist of the Pioneer. If it weren't for our action this time, the artist would have become the fourth power holder of the Pioneer."

The young man said in a deep voice, "It's a pity that he died at the hands of an unknown apostle. We are sorry that we couldn't get more details."

At that time, Luo Ling completely lost contact after being replaced by the "Spirit World Traveler". During this period of time, she was considered to be missing.

The one who appeared in the carriage and confronted the artist was Luo Ling in her Naraku form. Until everyone escaped from the realm of nothingness, no one could recognize that the woman with purple hair and black eyes was Luo Ling.

Therefore, in the archives of the "Company", the artist died at the hands of an unknown apostle.

"If the 'forbidden' disaster had occurred and 'Guixu' had fallen into the real world, at least tens of millions of people would have fallen into a cursed state of 'eternal life' and forever lost the salvation called 'death.'" the woman said softly.

"Immortality...isn't that great?" Luo Ling said doubtfully.

"You are wrong, Miss Luo Ling. This is one of the most terrible disasters in the world," the old man said slowly, "'Eternal life' does not mean that you will not get hurt, will not get sick, will not suffer, will not rot, and will not age.

"The old never die, the wounded never die, the sick are tortured, the rotten live forever... A world without 'death' as ​​a way of liberation, even hell is no more than this."

Luo Ling didn't say anything else. From the old man's description, she was already able to imagine what kind of hell it would be like if this situation really happened.

"Okay, we have answered one of your questions. It's time for you to give us an answer as well." The young man said, "In that 'realm of nothingness', besides that relic, what else exists?"

"Nothing exists," Luo Ling replied, "Just like other 'realms of nothingness', there is only endless nothingness."

The woman who had been watching her winked at the other two. She was sure that Luo Ling was not lying.

"Didn't you encounter anything?" The young man frowned slightly.

The reason why the "company" has been reluctant to send employees to this area is simple. This "realm of nothingness" caused by an unknown accident is speculated to be the work of a certain weird person.

Once you step in, there is a risk of death.

Operations in the Void are inherently dangerous, and for this reason, the Company is unwilling to risk wasting several lives to search for the remains of a dead person.

When the "boundary collapse" occurred as planned, several directors were paying close attention to the situation at various layout points. Right under their noses, the most core position was annihilated out of thin air after the collapse.

Even with the strength of the directors, they did not dare to step into the boundary of impending annihilation, so they could not see anything. The only thing that was certain was... this annihilation occurred beyond the plan.

According to the scale of the original plan, even if it was several times stronger, it would not reach the level of annihilation, not to mention that the only location of annihilation would be this hatchery.

So, it can only be human interference.

At that time, the "pioneers" and the "company" were both deeply involved in this game and had no time to create a disaster of this level, so there was only one possibility left.

At that time, an unknown monster appeared in the hatchery that could affect the "boundary".

The directors' judgment was indeed correct. It was Luo Ling who had transformed into a demon and swallowed up the boundary that had become unstable due to the collapse.

"..."

Luo Ling did not answer immediately, and there was a hint of nervousness in the eyes of the people looking at her.

At this moment, Luo Ling was thinking about what information to release.

They couldn't lie. The directors dared to conduct this transaction without an oath not only because they trusted Luo Ling, but it could even be said that there was no element of trust involved.

They have their own methods to judge the truth or falsehood of what Luo Ling said.

"A strange one," Luo Ling said slowly, "Although I have not met Him, I know that it was Him who caused the boundary to be annihilated and turned into the 'realm of nothingness'."

Luo Ling did not lie, she just hid one of the crucial subjects.

--"I"

Luo Ling did not encounter this weird person, because this weird person... is "me".

As soon as she finished speaking, the directors' pupils dilated.

"What... else? What else do you know?" The woman's voice trembled slightly. She was unbelievably sure that Luo Ling's words were indeed... the truth.

Although there have been corresponding speculations before, speculation is just speculation after all. The weirdness that can affect the boundaries... is really unbelievable.

Among the known "taboos", no one can directly interfere with the "boundary". At most, it will cause irreparable disasters and trigger some mechanism of this world, which will lead to a disaster of the level of "boundary annihilation".

No matter how terrible it is, as long as we can contain the disaster, we can prevent an irreversible situation from happening, and at least we know how to deal with it.

But...

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.

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

You have to know that the person who made this choice back then 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.
