"Take my extraordinary genetic data?" Lin Nai asked suspiciously, "What does your team leader want this for?"
Liang Ao honestly confessed: "Actually...actually, this is a task assigned to us by our company...It's not just you, it's the same for Mu Xun. The company also ordered us to obtain Mu Xun's genetic data, but so far we haven't succeeded in getting any...you could say we haven't found an opportunity to make a move yet..."
Lin Nai stroked his chin, seemingly lost in thought.
I see.
It seems that the gene company's goal is to obtain the Apostle's extraordinary genes for research.
So, the reason why Hu Xiong and his group were following him suspiciously during the third round of the competition must be because of this.
"How did they ask you to collect my extraordinary genes?" Linnaeus asked again.
Liang Ao said, "I have a 'soul power sample collector' in the right pocket of my pants. They want me to use this to secretly collect a sample of your soul power when I come into contact with you..."
Upon hearing this, Ye'er immediately beckoned with her finger.
The item in Liang Ao's right pocket was immediately pulled out of thin air and flew into Ye Wan'er's hand.
"Brother Linnai, look." Ye Wan'er handed the thing to him.
Linnaeus took the small, syringe-like gadget in his hand and examined it.
[Item: Soul Power Sample Collector]
[Description: Can extract the purest soul power samples from the soul power nodes within a transcendent being.]
[Review: Produced by a gene company, quality guaranteed.]
“…” Lin Nai pondered.
Liang Ao said with a mournful face, "Brother Nai, I really told you the truth. I've told you everything, without lying at all..."
Linna paused, looking into his eyes: "Yes, I believe you."
Liang Ao breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
However, just as he breathed a sigh of relief, he heard an alarm from his system:
[WARNING! An unknown Trojan horse is infiltrating your system via iris scanning!]
[WARNING! Your system firewall is preventing an intrusion!]
[Warning! Your system's security firewall has completely collapsed...]
【warn......】
Liang Ao looked surprised.
He slowly raised his head, staring blankly at Lin Nai: "You..."
"Bang!"
There was a muffled thud.
Without saying a word, Lin Nai delivered an elbow strike to the back of his head, knocking him unconscious.
The flames and thorns of night also loosened. Without the thorns binding him, Liang Ao fell to the ground and rolled unconsciously to his feet.
Lin Nai used the same Trojan horse that Chen Wei had used to hack into his system last time.
After that wooden horse was subdued by Mozi last time, it has been raised by Mozi ever since, and now it is very well-behaved.
Although that Trojan horse wasn't as advanced as the one from the Black Angel civilization, it was still relatively easy to use against a human system.
Night asked curiously, "Brother Lin Nai, why did you knock him out again?"
Lin Nai smiled and said, "Because I still plan to send him back to 'report back'."
"Report back?" Ye Wan'er tilted her head.
Lin Nai lifted Liang Ao from the ground, brought him in front of Wan'er, and asked, "Wan'er, you should know those hypnotic illusions, right?"
After thinking for a moment, Ye'er seemed to understand what Lin Nai wanted to do, and nodded gently: "Yes, but there are many kinds of hypnotic illusions, Brother Lin Nai, you mean...?"
"I need the kind of hypnosis that can alter his memories."
Then, Lin Nai briefly shared her thoughts with Ye Wan'er.
Linnai wasn't worried at all about the night.
Given this girl's skill set, if she can't speak, there's only one possibility...
That was something she had never imagined...
She can do anything you can imagine.
When Ye Wan'er heard Lin Nai's idea, she nodded seriously: "I understand."
Lin Nai held Liang Ao in front of Ye Wan'er to make it easier for her to cast spells.
Night gently closed her eyes, gathering her magic. A few seconds later, she extended a finger and gently touched Liang Ao's forehead.
A stream of magical energy was transmitted into his brain...
......
I don't know how much time has passed.
Liang Ao woke up groggily.
Where...where is this?
Um?
Liang Ao suddenly sat up.
He found himself sitting in the hallway of his dormitory building.
"How did I get here?" Liang Ao frowned slightly. He scratched his head and found that the back of his head was still a little sore, making him grimace.
"This is..."
Liang Ao raised his right hand and found that he was holding something in his right hand.
Looking up, I realized that what I was holding was a soul power sample collector.
The tubes inside were full, filled with some kind of pale-colored energy gas.
"When did this thing come about...?" Liang Ao was still a little confused.
However, soon, a sharp pain shot through his head, and a series of memories flooded into his brain!
I arrived at Linna's door, and after a performance of crying and sobbing, Linna softened and let me in...
After a conversation, I fooled him with my superb acting skills. Lin Nai lowered his guard, believing I was truly a pitiful person being threatened by the gene company, and drank with me, offering comfort as a gesture of goodwill...
After a few rounds of drinking, Lin Nai became somewhat drunk. Although he was an Apostle, his alcohol tolerance seemed quite low, and he quickly blacked out. Taking advantage of his intoxication, I took out the Soul Power Sample Collector and extracted his extraordinary genes from him...
When Liang Ao recalled this, his eyes lit up.
So, I've already completed my mission?!
Liang Ao looked at the sample collector in his hand and showed an expression of ecstatic joy.
I never expected it to be so successful!
"Hahahaha, I'm going to be rich now!" Liang Ao quickly stood up from the ground and put away the thing in his hand as if it were a treasure.
I never expected Lin Nai to be so trusting and so easily fooled!
He actually believed me when I was just putting on an act!
If he had known this task was so easy, he should have volunteered long ago!
"but......"
Liang Ao frowned slightly.
"Why did I faint and end up lying in this stairwell...?"
"......"
"Never mind, it's not important. Anyway, I got the stuff, hehehe..."
Liang Ao thought this was normal; he probably drank too much and blacked out, so there were some things he couldn't remember.
"By the way, what time is it now..." Liang Ao glanced at the time and was startled to see that it was already 2:50 p.m.
The Round of 16 matches are this afternoon! The matches start at 3 PM!
Liang Ao quickly patted his pants and staggered towards the competition venue.
