Camille clenched her teeth and her face turned pale, as if she regretted her impulsive action when she heard her lover's name.
"Of course, we are all civilized people, and I prefer to conduct diplomacy in a civilized manner."
Li Lin asked the Tyrannical Alien to let go of Camille and at the same time reached out his hand to her.
However, she just glanced at Li Lin coldly, chose to stand up, and touched her neck which had two thin scabs.
"What on earth do you want to do?"
"Hakim Nedri, your love, I know you have thought about abandoning everything and eloping to a place where no one knows you."
Camille's pupils shrank slightly and her breathing quickened after the memories hidden in her mind were revealed.
This guy...
Is there anything else he doesn't know?!
"But then another gangster attacked and seriously injured Stevan, which completely dispelled your thoughts."
Camille's breathing stagnated, and she couldn't help but step back a few steps, her face full of astonishment, "You..."
"This incident was staged by Stevan himself in order to prevent you from leaving the family. I think you already knew this."
"This is impossible..." Camille cried out.
She was not questioning Li Lin's accusation that his brother Stevan would do anything to keep her, but that he actually knew this secret that only she and her brother knew.
"This is a magical world, Camille. Nothing is impossible."
Li Lin controlled the armor on his body to change back into ordinary clothes, and then made an invitation gesture to Camille, "Would you like another cup of tea?"
Camille's face was numb, as if she didn't hear Li Lin's words.
She already had a strong suspicion that the young man in front of her was secretly a magic master with powerful spells and was good at divination magic.
He was an Ionian, after all.
Li Lin didn't understand what Camille was thinking, nor did he care about her. He went back to the workbench, picked up the teacup, and drank it all in one gulp.
All his actions were just to put pressure on Camille, to make her more convinced that he was fearless and there was no need to lie.
"You know everything Stevan has done. You know exactly what kind of person he is."
Li Lin stared at Camille's unfocused eyes. "So, let me ask you again, do you really think your brother's motives are so simple?"
Camille remained silent, and Li Lin pressed the issue, asking, "Have you ever thought about what the first thing he'll do after he transforms his body and replaces the Hix core?"
"...Kill you." After hesitating for a few seconds, she said those three words as if she had used up all her strength.
"Yes, but not entirely." Li Lin sneered, "And I'll kill you."
"That's impossible. I'm his sister..."
"Are you still holding out hope for him? Wake up, Camille! In Stevan's eyes, your existence isn't as important as the immortality he dreams of!
"If I hadn't developed the Hextech Core, and Hadley, the only person in the world who possessed Hextech Core technology, your former lover, had disappeared, what do you think Stevan would do to ensure his own immortality?"
Li Lin's questioning made Camille stunned, and she fell into a deep struggle with herself.
If it is really as Li Lin said, my brother...
No!
He is my brother, we are blood relatives, and Li Lin is just an outsider. How could he understand the relationship between my brother and me...
No, that's not right...
Stevan had long since decayed, a changed man since his mother lay in bed.
He is extremely selfish and will do anything for you.
If the Ferros family relied solely on his various vicious decisions, they would have been wiped out by the other families...
Camille quickly recalled what her brother had done over the past few decades, and felt more and more that what Li Lin said was absolutely right.
Without the new Hextech Core, his target might very well be me...
Li Lin looked at the changes in Camille's expression and pupils. "It seems that you have realized it."
"I have my own judgment," Camille retorted weakly, "No matter what, he is still my brother... and this is our family affair."
"Okay, I shouldn't comment on your family affairs, but there's one thing you should do: you should make the Philos family a better place instead of letting it rot in Stevan's hands."
Camille bit her lower lip and didn't respond.
Li Lin thought for a moment, "Oh, right, I have a gene enhancement potion that can greatly improve a person's physical fitness."
"So... you suppressed me just now, not just relying on the power of the armor?"
"That's right, this thing must completely change its form to work."
Camille glanced at Li Lin in surprise. "Why are you telling me this? Aren't you afraid that I might assassinate you while you sleep?"
Li Lin glared at her helplessly, "You wouldn't do that, and you can't do that."
How could you ask such a stupid question?
"Behind you stands the Ferros family. I've already entered the location of Lanxun Manor into the mecha's intelligent database."
Camille fell silent again.
Although she was disgusted by this threat, she had to admit that she actually thought so in her heart.
“Back to the topic, my gene enhancement potion can strengthen the body and bring Stevan back to his prime... but for him, it will only last for a while, because it can't extend a person's lifespan.
"Then, through it, we can test what Stevan really wants."
"I have a question." Camille exhaled heavily, "Why on earth would you do this?"
Li Lin scratched his head, a troubled look on his face. "How should I put it? There are so many bad things in this world. If I limit my vision to just the Twin Cities, I'd be like a frog in a well."
Camille looked confused, not quite understanding what he was trying to say.
"Overall, we need to think about the future, and you will be a great help."
"...ambition needs to be constrained by facts." Camille didn't know how to evaluate his idea and could only say this.
Li Lin smiled at her and said, "It seems that I am qualified to have such ambition."
