Found

To extract more information not found in the plot, Shen Mo had no choice but to helplessly act weak. After all, he truly wanted to save that genius without alarming the target and causing them harm, so he had to resort to this desperate measure.

He only saw himself tightly grasping Shen Yue's sleeve, putting on a timid and death-fearing appearance, and asking with a trembling voice, "Big sister, where is that esper you mentioned? Will that contract really not harm us? I'm a bit scared."

Seeing Shen Mo's cowardly, death-fearing appearance, Liu Qun felt a bit of contempt. Before the apocalypse, he hated this kind of pretty boy the most. His girlfriend had once been completely fooled by one, and in the end had even used his money to support him.

Yet seeing Shen Mo's useless look, he indeed relaxed his vigilance in his heart, planning to first get his hands on the pretty boy's elder sister before dealing with him.

Thinking thus, Liu Qun felt somewhat more at ease, suppressing the impatience in his heart to explain, "She isn't here right now, I'll take you to sign the spiritual contract tonight. Rest assured, as long as you agree to me and obediently listen, the contract won't pose any danger at all."

Night, is it? Shen Mo lowered his head, the corners of his mouth slowly hooking into a smile, found.

It seems this psychic-type esper tonight is the person I'm looking for.

So I still can't break free from this disgusting cage yet. I'll endure a bit longer and settle accounts with them tonight. Daring to look at myself and my sister with such lewd gazes, if I don't squeeze their eyeballs out, it would completely waste my bead-digging skills from all those years back.

Mere Tier-Two at that, this young master is also considered Tier-Two now, your broken cage is useless against me.

He hadn't given up cultivation these past few days. In a world with such dense demonic qi, he could feel the increase of demonic qi within his body just by breathing the air.

Coupled with the fact that he now had a spatial domain and was not lacking in spiritual qi, he quickly advanced from Early Foundation Establishment to Middle Foundation Establishment.

According to this world's power conversion, it precisely counted as Tier-Two.

Yet based on the plot introduction, the highest esper tier here was only Sixth Tier, which was Late Golden Core.

Then once he broke through Golden Core to enter the Nascent Soul Stage, he should be considered the highest combat strength in this world.

Shen Yue gripped her younger brother's hand tighter, feeling her mind go blank. Bead-digging skills? What beads? Eyeballs? What on earth had her pitiful younger brother been through?

Leng Shiyi's focus, however, was placed on the strength Shen Mo had exposed. He and his teammates beside him exchanged glances, and amidst their intersecting gazes, they seemed to convey a certain tacit understanding.

Subsequently, he feigned the appearance of having deliberated and discussed, shifting his gaze firmly toward Liu Qun as he spoke, "Fine, we agree to you, but can you release us first for now?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Qun let out a burst of smug laughter, obviously extremely satisfied with their reply.

However, he did not immediately release Leng Shiyi and the others, but instead waved his hand, saying in a relaxed tone, "Don't be in such a rush, it won't be too late to let you out tonight."

Having finished speaking, he swaggered away with that bunch of underlings in tow.

Xue Dong, following closely behind Liu Qun, stole glances back at the protagonist group as he walked.

Although he hadn't figured out whose voice that was, this time he might truly have bet on the right horse! He hadn't expected there to be a Tier-Two esper in this team as well.

Regardless of what they needed him and his younger sister to do next, as long as they could escape this place, it would be fine.

Thinking of this, Xue Dong's pace involuntarily grew a bit lighter, and he held a measure of anticipation for the arrival of night.

Seeing them leave, Su Ze helplessly spread his hands toward everyone. "It seems something is happening tonight; otherwise, they wouldn't have emphasized tonight."

Recalling the marks they had seen on the steel plates on the first floor, Leng Shiyi furrowed his brow, "Since they dare to lock us up here like this, it at least indicates that the dormitory is safe.

As for not letting us out now, I guess one reason is that they don't trust us yet and are afraid we'll run off.

The other reason should be to demonstrate their strength, showing they indeed have the capability to protect our safety."

Listening to their discussion, Shen Mo didn't say anything. He truly disliked this kind of environment, as it made him recall bad memories from the Cultivation Realm.
