"How was it? Not bad, right?"
Medusa said proudly.
Lin Zhu agreed, "It's pretty good~"
"Especially this Medusa, she's absolutely gorgeous. I thought she'd be a monster."
Mo Wan continued.
Upon hearing this, Medusa was no longer sleepy!
"Right, right! I think so too. Medusa is the most beautiful woman I've ever seen."
Don't you guys think I look a lot like her?
Medusa blinked, to avoid being recognized.
Her portrait was modified slightly, but only a tiny bit!
"Well..."
The two were speechless upon hearing this. The Medusa in the picture and the female beggar in front of them were completely unrelated.
Putting aside the fact that this guy has absolutely no divine aura, the two lumps of flesh on his chest alone are already enough to make him look like a veil.
Just as they were about to start complaining...
A man in military uniform walked briskly over.
It was Lin Bayi who sent the specialists to conduct the transaction.
He deftly handed over a specially made military-grade crystal card.
"Hello, this contains a quota of 100 million Star Crystal, usable across the entire network by the Armed Forces Department of all major bases."
Medusa snatched the crystal card, and her eyes turned into the shape of Star Crystal.
The negotiator put away the image of the Evil God, his eyes flashing slightly, and asked the question seemingly casually.
"Madam, may I ask if you have..."
"Is there any information about the characteristics of these Evil God's abilities, or their specific coordinates?"
Medusa was about to speak, but then abruptly stopped herself.
Although she was greedy, she wasn't stupid.
Su Gelu and Helge are already dead; they won't be resurrected for over a hundred years, so there's no point in talking about it.
And the remaining three...
Naiya and Black Mist, both have explosive tempers!
And that Abyss old octopus on the other side of the abyss, if he knew that he sold Him for less than his own price.
Shouldn't we turn her into boiled snake?
"I'm not selling anymore! I'm not selling anymore!"
Medusa shook her head repeatedly and shoved the Parchment Map of the Desolate God Society headquarters, which she had previously looted, into the negotiator's hand.
That's all for today. Profits are small, so no credit allowed!
The negotiator didn't press the issue, smiled slightly, and took out a smartphone from his pocket and handed it over.
"Understand."
"This is our communicator. Please feel free to contact us if you have anything else you'd like to sell next time."
"Excuse me... how should we address you?"
Medusa's eyes darted around, and she immediately made up a story. "Just call me... M."
"Okay, Ms. M."
"Then we'll take our leave. We hope you enjoy your stay at the Ninth Base."
After saying that, the negotiators, along with Lin Zhu and Mo Wan, quickly disappeared into the crowds of the Night Market.
Medusa, holding a staggering 100 million in her hands, completely let loose and lived life to the fullest.
"Hahaha! I'm Fortune! The Snow Velvet Hotel!"
"Bring me your most expensive red wine and your most expensive meat!"
The Ninth Base of China, Command Center.
Base Commander Wang Shuai looked at the blond beggar laughing heartily while hugging a pile of luxury goods on the Monitor Screen, and couldn't help but glance at Lin Bayi beside him.
"Chief, why don't we just close in and arrest her, then interrogate her? With our resources, taking her down shouldn't be difficult."
Lin Bayi shook his head.
"This guy... is not simple."
"They're not so easy to catch; pushing them too far could lead to mutual destruction."
"Besides, you have to cast a long line to catch a big fish."
Lin Bayi turned around and looked at the screen. "Since she's an extremely greedy nouveau riche, we only need to use a little trick..."
"That would make her willingly reveal everything about the Evil God, without even risking violence."
Wang Shuai paused for a moment, then seemed to realize something and gave a knowing, sinister smile.
"Chief, I understand."
"The best way to deal with a nouveau riche is... to make them incur an enormous debt that they can never repay."
The higher you're lifted up, the harder you'll fall.
"If you understand, then go and do it. Do it well."
Lin Bayi patted Wang Shuai on the shoulder, his gaze fixed on the night sky outside the window.
"I'll be waiting for your good news on my way to the Weird Island."
Just then, a staff member strode in, looking somewhat excited.
"Reporting to the two Chief! We just received notification that the live stream for the [Newbie Trial] is about to begin!"
"Are you... going to watch it?"
Lin Bayi and Wang Shuai both shuddered simultaneously.
"Of course I'll watch it."
Lin Bayi answered.
"That was... a trial personally participated in by the Dragon God."
"And that was also the final funeral of our old friend, with whom we had fought side by side for countless years."
The atmosphere in the hall became somewhat somber for a moment.
But soon, the two elderly people composed themselves and walked side by side toward the main control screen...
Let's rewind to an hour earlier.
Bone-Burying Abyss, inside the Human Emperor Lamp.
Jiangnan is now transformed into the ruthless [Secret Chamber Douluo], gazing at the prisoner before him.
Having been imprisoned in a cramped space for many days, Tiffany, the seventh seat of the Desolate God Society [Gambler], had long lost her former arrogance and elegance.
She suffered a complete mental breakdown.
"Let me out! Please let me out!"
Tiffany slumped to the ground, her face deathly pale, her beautiful eyes filled with pleading.
As Jiangnan approached, she stammered and took the initiative to step forward.
"Just let me out... and I'll help you calm down!"
"Anything is fine! Please..."
Faced with this tempting plea, Jiangnan remained steadfast and impartial.
He coldly tossed out a note, on which was clearly written the true purpose of his trip.
[Which Evil God are you under?]
The moment Tiffany saw the handwriting, her delicate body trembled, and she shook her head frantically.
"No... I can't say! I absolutely can't say!"
"If I reveal my real name, I'll die a horrible death! The authorities won't let me off!"
Jiangnan's eyes turned cold, and he handed over another note.
[If you don't tell, you'll suffer a terrible death right now.]
"Then you might as well just kill me!"
Tiffany screamed in despair, "Dying by your hand is at least a thousand times better than dying by its!"
Jiangnan frowned slightly.
He could tell that the other party wasn't lying.
These members of the Desolate God Society likely all have divine restrictions planted in their minds.
If it's simply controlled like Dusk, there shouldn't be any problem.
However, forcibly searching the soul or extracting a confession might trigger the restrictions and alert the enemy.
"That's enough."
Jiangnan secretly made his own plans.
Upon reaching the Prayer Deep Pool, they retrieved the Godslayer Spear from Zhang Yan.
By then, he could use the Evil God behind Tiffany as a battery.
This seems pretty good.
Thinking of this, Jiangnan prepared to turn around and leave.
However, adhering to the ironclad rule that since we've already come all this way, we can't leave empty-handed...
Before leaving, Jiangnan reached out and pressed Tiffany's head down.
About half an hour later.
Jiangnan, feeling refreshed, pulled open his clothes and transformed into a wisp of black smoke, returning to the Bone-Burying Abyss.
From afar, Yekater stood alone in the center of the Abyss, waiting quietly.
It seems the Spirit-Summoning Lighthouse has been successfully activated; now it's time for me to head back.
Jiangnan raised his hand to wipe his forehead, and the Eye of Mobius shone brightly.
Near Yet Far!
Jiangnan's figure disappeared from the spot, and he quickly returned to Soul Return Town.
As soon as he appeared, Shen Lian happened to see him at the street corner and ran up to greet him.
"Mr. Dragon God!"
Panting, Shen Lian excitedly reported to the guide, "The RV is all finished being renovated! I was just about to come find you, come on in and take a look!"
[Good.]
Jiangnan raised an eyebrow, casually pulled out a note, and nodded.
He followed Shen Lian to the back of the van and opened the door.
The two stepped through the portal and entered the internal area reserved for the Jiangnan Squad.
As soon as he stepped inside, a look of surprise flashed in Jiangnan's eyes.
This place has undergone tremendous changes.
What was originally a two-story luxury villa has now been transformed into a corridor of a high-end apartment building.
At a glance, countless rooms are neatly arranged on both sides.
"Dragon God, thanks to the upgrades from the Superior Renovation Card, a total of 100 rooms have been created here."
Shen Lian thoughtfully introduced from her side:
"Among them, 1001, 1002, and 1003 were your previous second-floor deluxe suite, first-floor living room, and driver's cab living area, respectively."
"As for the other rooms, they were all transformed into modern minimalist style suites using the premium renovation card."
Shen Lian pointed to a spot not far away. "Chen Tong and the others should be resting in room 1002 right now."
Jiangnan nodded, but he didn't intend to go to room 1002. Instead, he turned around and opened the door to room 1004 next to him.
He wanted to personally inspect the goods and see what this so-called modern minimalist style was really like.
As the door was slowly opened, the scene inside was revealed to Jiangnan in its entirety.
The furniture and appliances are all complete, and the overall color scheme is black, white and gray, which is neat and elegant.
The layout of two bedrooms, one living room, and two bathrooms not only provides excellent privacy but is also very suitable for the team members' daily living.
Jiangnan nodded in satisfaction.
Just then, Shen Lian, who was standing to the side, seemed to remember something, glanced at the time, and softly reminded him.
"By the way, Mr. Dragon God."
"Soon..."
"It's the global live stream of your experience during the newbie trial. Would you like to watch it together?"
