"Owl?"
Bai Xiaowen sized up the disheveled, bearded middle-aged man before him. He wore a battered newsboy cap and looked rather comical.
"Owl is my codename, not my real name."
The middle-aged man, Owl, smiled. "In the world of Evolvers, it's best not to reveal your real name casually. Most of the time, it won't cause any problems, but you still have to consider extreme circumstances."
Bai Xiaowen suddenly realized. "You're... an Evolver?"
Owl nodded.
Bai Xiaowen could sense that this Owl had a somewhat similar temperament to the three big shots from that Evolver squad three years ago.
This temperament had nothing to do with the strength of their aura. It was an attitude that came from within and showed in every word and gesture. Toward ordinary people, including Awakened, they all held a rather indifferent attitude. To put it bluntly, it was like how humans viewed monkeys.
It was a shift in mentality brought about by a leap in one's level of life.
However, Owl's attitude toward Bai Xiaowen was quite good. His teammates could all tell.
"I came this time to give you a few suggestions, as a way of forming a good relationship," Owl said.
Without hesitation, Bai Xiaowen nodded. "Then thank you... Senior. Please come in so we can talk."
Owl shook his head with a smile. "There's no need for talk of seniors and juniors. The capable come first. No need to go inside. I'll only say a few words before leaving. My vacation is almost over."
Bai Xiaowen nodded.
"The worlds of Evolvers and Awakened are vastly different. Much of the specific information is confidential to Awakened, so I cannot reveal it. Besides, explaining everything one by one would take too much time. You can experience the world of Evolvers for yourself in
