"Do you think I want to be a ball?!"

The Madman cried out in a hoarse voice.

All I want is a body of my own!

Why do you all despise me? Did I want to look like this?!

"Medusa thought I was a burden and abandoned me at the crucial moment!"

My teammates think I'm Madman and they all ostracize me!

"Now that I'm a prisoner, I'm still being looked down upon by you ghosts!"

Even the Dragon Clan, who are known for not being picky eaters, dislike me!

"What did I do wrong? Waaaaaah..."

"I don't want to live anymore! Just stomp on me and kill me!"

Upon hearing this,

An awkward atmosphere descended upon the entire women workers' area.

Hearing this lament, and thinking of the lonely sewing machine in the corner, the surrounding female ghosts and cattle fell silent for a moment.

Even though the opponent is just a ball, and a villain at that.

But for some reason, seeing its heart-wrenching cries, everyone felt a sense of guilt.

However, as this strange sense of sympathy spread...

Jiangnan, standing on the Madman, showed not the slightest wavering in his gaze.

My heart and actions are as clear as a mirror; all my deeds are for the sake of justice!

Jiangnan snorted coldly in his heart.

Those bastards from the Desolate God Society, all for their so-called goals.

It has unleashed countless Blood Rain and slaughtered countless innocent people around the world.

What right does someone with blood on their hands have to act pitiful and cry here?

"A bad person for a day, a bad person for life."

"Sin can never be washed away with a few tears."

"The tragedies that have occurred will never be changed because of the tragic experiences they have endured."

Jiangnan's moral bottom line is very flexible, but his philosophy of survival is equally unbreakable.

This statement also includes himself.

Jiangnan has never claimed to be a great philanthropist who saves the world.

His so-called salvation was nothing more than a means to ensure his own survival.

It's just for my own pleasure.

He would not use hypocritical morality to coerce others, nor would he show pity for the enemy because of tears.

But that doesn't mean he's just a hothead who only knows how to swing a knife and chop people up.

For an enemy with such extreme psychological flaws... he has many ways to make her strip naked without shedding blood.

Jiangnan smirked coldly.

He removed his shoes, squatted down, and offered a condition the other party couldn't refuse.

Do you want to have a body that truly belongs to you?

[A body that no longer needs parasites, allowing you to stand proudly in the sunlight?]

Jiangnan pasted the note with these words written on it in front of the Madman's eyes.

The Madman, who was crying uncontrollably, stopped crying instantly upon seeing the contents of the note.

"Really? You can help me rebuild my physical body? You're not kidding me, are you?"

Jiangnan, expressionless, pulled out a notepad again and quickly wrote something.

[Of course it's true. I, the mighty Dragon God, keep my word and never lie.]

[Just hand over every single piece of information you have about the Evil God and your former boss, without missing a single word.]

[This is the only price I'll pay for shaping your body; it will take some time.]

The Madman was completely stunned.

Although she was obsessive and crazy, she wasn't stupid.

If an ordinary person had said that, she would have scoffed and killed them.

But now...

Standing before her was a genuine god!

He was someone who could even reduce Helge to ashes.

There are even rumors that he almost chopped up his former boss Medusa, into a plate of boiled snake!

On this Weird Island, you may question the Dragon God's character, but you absolutely cannot question Dragon God power!

The Dragon God's reputation score has been pushed to the limit by this Madman!

"Good..."

The Madman simply stretched out his thin tentacle and forcefully wiped away his tears.

"You're not allowed to lie to me! You're a dog if you lie! We're going to pinky swear!"

Seeing this childish behavior, Jiangnan revealed a harmless smile.

Okay, pinky promise.

Jiangnan extended his little finger and hooked it with the black tentacle.

Thus, under this agreement, the Madman finally cooperated and extended his tentacles.

On the Memo Paper that Jiangnan handed over, he wrote down the top-secret information he knew.

Ten minutes later.

The Madman handed the Memo Paper, which was covered in writing, back to Jiangnan and turned his head away arrogantly.

"Here it is."

"However, only a portion."

"It's all about the secrets and weaknesses of those two idiots, Medusa and Helge."

"I want to know the rest of the information about the other Evil God..."

"You must keep your promise and get my body in good shape first!"

Although the Madman was simple-minded, he was also cautious.

Of course, she also had her own selfish motives in betraying her two superiors.

Who told you to be so heartless as to abandon me back then?!

Destroy them all!

Jiangnan took the stack of notes, but he was not disappointed by the incomplete information.

Instead, he simply glanced down at the contents of the first page.

He knew very well that these things were worth a fortune!

Because...

On the first page of the Memo Paper, there was a portrait drawn!

This is the true image of the Demon Snake Evil God, Medusa!

At the same time, the scene transitions.

In the Polar Icefield, tens of thousands of miles away from the Weird Island.

This is the Ninth Base, the steel fortress guarding the northern border of the Huaxia Country Kingdom.

Although it was already night, the gates of the Ninth Base were brightly lit.

A vast Night Market, hundreds of meters long, stretches outwards along the snow-covered road.

Countless China soldiers and extraordinary individuals had just returned from hunting in the Polar Icefield.

They were excitedly setting up stalls on both sides of the road, loudly hawking the spoils they had obtained from their adventures and monster kills.

Moreover, among the bustling Night Market, there were even many Merchant from the rear [Canglan Continent].

With their keen eye, they brought a large number of daily necessities and high-end luxury goods, engaging in highly profitable transactions here.

And in this bustling crowd.

Two familiar figures were walking slowly by.

"Oh my god! It's so damn lively here!"

A girl with her hair in a bun, wearing a winter coat and with her hands in her pockets, was strolling leisurely through the Night Market.

It was Mo Wan.

"Yes..."

Lin Zhu, who was following behind Mo Wan, also had a long-lost relaxed smile on her face.

"We've finally found our main force from China."

"That way, as long as we follow the main group's route, we can reach the Weird Island and find Dragon God sooner."

"Oh, right, Lin Zhu."

Mo Wan suddenly stopped and turned around to ask.

"The captain we met asked us when we were leaving for the Weird Island, what was it again?"

You mean Captain Lin Bayi?

Lin Zhu recounted. "Captain Lin said, 'Let us rest well for one night, and we'll set off with his direct subordinates tomorrow.'"

"We will first travel across the ice plains on the Su Country's Snow Country armored train to reach the port of the Canglan Continent."

"Then we boarded the fleet and sailed to the Weird Island."

"The estimated departure time is... 6:00 AM tomorrow!"

"Tomorrow morning?!?"

Upon hearing this time, Mo Wan panicked.

She looked up at the electronic clock in the center of the Night Market.

[Current Time: 19:09]

"Oh my god! It's already past 7 pm!"

Mo Wan clutched her head with both hands and let out a scream.

"Oh no! I promised to cook penguin meat for the boss!"

"We completely forgot about that!"

Mo Wan was so anxious that she jumped up and down, grabbing Lin Zhu's arm.

"Come on, come on! Hurry up and follow me, let's go hunt a Gugu Penguin tonight as a food supply!"

Lin Zhu stumbled as she was pulled, and quickly grabbed her back, both amused and exasperated.

"Don't be in such a hurry!"

"Don't you even know where you are? This is the Night Market of Ninth Base!"

"What local specialties don't those soldiers who have just returned from hunting have in their hands?"

Lin Zhu pointed to the stalls selling animal meat, "They must sell them here, why don't we just buy a few?"

Mo Wan slapped her thigh, suddenly realizing, "That's right! Money makes the world go round, isn't this much more convenient than trying to catch it yourself!"

As she walked along, she did see several stalls displaying all sorts of strangely shaped pieces of meat from the Icefield.

So the two of them immediately perked up and began to thoroughly inquire at each of the meat vendors' stalls.

"Uncle, two Gugu Penguin, please!"

"Penguins? No, no, get out of my way, don't block my way from selling Snow Demon Bear meat!"

"Hey bro, do you have penguin meat at your stall?"

"What? A penguin? Can you eat that? No!"

The two searched the Night Market for more than a dozen of the largest-looking butcher shops, but the answers they received were surprisingly consistent.

None at all!

Not only did they not get a scolding, but the last shop owner, a man with a fierce face, even berated them.

"I say, you two young ladies, you're both so pretty, how come you have such heavy tastes?"

"Why buy Gugu Penguin meat of all things?"

While chopping meat, the shopkeeper complained, "Those things are easy to catch, but they're basically the scavengers of the icy plains!"

"If you cook it, it'll smell absolutely awful and sour, like eating a stinky sock that's been fermenting for a month!"

Even dogs wouldn't eat it, so nobody would buy it!

"Ah?!"

After listening to the boss's explanation, Mo Wan was completely dumbfounded.

She looked at Lin Zhu beside her with an incredulous gaze.

"Lin Zhu..."

"You... how come you were able to eat that rubbish so deliciously back on the ice field?!"

"You were eating with your mouth all greasy, I thought that 'Gugu Penguin' was some kind of divine delicacy!"

Lin Zhu argued confidently, "Well... didn't the boss say that the meat tastes bad because it becomes smelly and sour after being cooked?"

"So... I was on the ice field back then, and I only ate raw food."

"It tastes great when eaten raw, and it also helps to replenish fluids..."

Mo Wan: "..."

There was no way around it; she'd almost forgotten that this guy was a wild man from a barbecue restaurant!

"Forget it, if we can't buy it, we can't buy it. We can just bring back some other local specialties for our boss."

Just as Mo Wan gave up struggling and wanted to give up and go back to sleep,

"Clap clap."

Suddenly, she felt someone tap her shoulder twice.

In that instant, the chill pierced through her winter clothes, going straight to her spine!

"Hiss!"

Mo Wan shuddered.

"Who?!"

She turned around abruptly, her right hand already on her spatial ring, ready to draw her weapon at any moment.

However, when she turned around and saw who was standing behind her, her hand froze.

Standing in front of her was a blonde foreign woman.

But this woman's attire was really strange.

In such a cold place, she was wearing a coarse cloth dress covered in patches.

Because the skirt was so wide and trailed on the ground, her lower body was completely obscured.

Moreover, in this bustling Night Market, the woman was actually holding a small wooden stick in her hand.

At the top of the stick, another tattered little package was slung over the handle.

This look makes her look like a refugee beggar.

Mo Wan breathed a sigh of relief and took her hand off the ring.

She thought she was a homeless person begging for food and was about to take some biscuits from her pocket to send her away.

But just then...

The blonde beggar woman holding the wooden stick suddenly looked up.

Those vertical pupils, hidden beneath the messy blonde hair, fixed on Mo Wan.

"Hmph, two adorable little sisters..."

I think I just heard...

"You're looking for... the Gugu Penguin, right?"
