Lin Qiye's expression suddenly froze.
Wu Xiangnan, who was smiling and shaking hands with Amamiya Haruki, froze in place. He took a long while to react, then slowly turned his head and looked at Lin Qiye with a strange look.
Wu Xiangnan has studied Japanese culture for so many years, so of course he knows what the gigolo industry is. After hearing the series of titles that Amamiya Haruki gave to Lin Qiye, a series of indescribable scenes have already appeared in his mind.
Wu Xiangnan looked at Lin Qiye, his eyes seemed to say: "You kid had so much fun in Japan?!"
The corners of Lin Qiye's mouth twitched wildly. He took two steps forward and whispered to Amamiya Haruki:
"Why are you doing this? I did those things... because they were required by the mission..."
Amamiya Haruki replied calmly: "Qianyu, as a man, you should not forget your roots. After all, you have made a lot of money in Hei Wutong. How can you even deny your own identity?"
This was what Lin Qiye had said to Amamiya Haruki before, and now the other party had said it back to him exactly as it was. At this moment, Lin Qiye felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly.
After a moment, he breathed a sigh of relief...
Fortunately, only Wu Xiangnan understood. Jia Lan didn't understand Japanese and didn't know what this sentence meant, so it shouldn't be a big problem...
His fame will still be preserved!
Lin Qiye turned around and was about to say something when his body shook.
At some point, Wu Xiangnan had already leaned close to Jialan's ear, and seemed to be whispering something. Jialan's gaze towards Lin Qiye began to change visibly.
Lin Qiye's mind went blank.
After Wu Xiangnan finished speaking, Jia Lan pursed his lips and looked at Lin Qiye with eyes full of resentment. Without waiting for Lin Qiye to explain anything, Jia Lan snorted, turned his head away, and stopped looking at him.
Lin Qiye: ...
Lin Qiye knew that his reputation was most likely ruined, so he sighed helplessly, walked to the still sleeping Baili Pangpang, squatted down to check on him.
Baili Pangpang had his eyes closed and was breathing heavily. Even though Wei Dong and Amamiya Haruki had carried him for such a long distance, there was still no sign of waking up.
It seems like he is sleeping very deeply...
"What's wrong with him?" Jia Lan also saw Baili Pangpang lying on the ground. He put aside the bad things that Lin Qiye had done for the time being, walked over and asked worriedly.
"I don't know. It may be because I have been forced to activate the Forbidden Ruins for too long. My brain needs a lot of sleep and rest. I don't know when I can wake up." Lin Qiye sighed.
It would probably be difficult to take the Shinkansen with Baili Pangpang who had fallen into a deep sleep. It seemed that I could only send a message to Shen Qingzhu and ask him to send someone to pick him up... Lin Qiye thought to himself.
After the Shangxie Society and the Night Watchmen joined forces, they followed Lin Qiye and entered the "human circle" from the place where they sneaked in. But the problem was that Wu Xiangnan and others did not bring diving equipment when they arrived at the ruins, and Baili Pangpang was unable to wear the equipment and surface.
Fortunately, Lin Qiye took Baili Pangpang's [Free Space] and used [Yaoguang] to directly create a small ball of light, carrying everyone to fly above the sea.
In the small ball of light, Lin Qiye finished sending the text message and turned to look at the other people.
"The scale of this 'human circle' is even more terrifying than we imagined." Wei Dong said solemnly to the knight based on the intelligence he had collected, "A complete country, a population of more than 50 million, and the technology here is extremely advanced, and the energy consumption is astronomical. I have never seen such a 'human circle'..."
Listening to Wei Dong's report, the knight's expression became more serious.
"It is indeed difficult to destroy a 'human circle' of this size with manpower... For such a large area, even if we use S-level pixel bombs, the number of bombs required is astronomical. Even if we use all the reserves of the Upper Evil Society, it may not be enough, and it will consume a lot of manpower and time."
"So what should we do?"
"...I have no idea yet." The knight said truthfully, "We have never destroyed such a large-scale 'human circle'. The specific plan of destruction will only be known after I see this country with my own eyes."
After listening to this, Wei Dong asked hesitantly, "How about we report to the president first? Let her come in person? The president is always good at destruction and demolition."
The knight shook his head. "It's unrealistic to ask the president to come here now. You entered this 'circle of people' too early and are not very clear about the recent actions of the Shangxie Society. The president has discovered another Cthulhu Mythos ruins in North America. The president is leading people to explore and cannot come here in a short time.
Besides, we can’t rely on the president for everything. No matter how big this ‘circle of people’ is, there must be a way to destroy it…”
"Another Cthulhu ruins?" Wei Dong's brows suddenly frowned, "This is the third one, right?"
"Well, something is fishy."
The two members of Shangxie Society fell silent at the same time.
After a moment, the knight spoke again: "It is not our turn to worry about the ruins of Cthulhu. We just need to complete the current task first... investigate the situation, formulate a destruction plan, report to the upper evil society and lead other members to act, and then return to Utopia with 500,000 people.
By the way, have you investigated the thoughts of the residents here and the extent of their influence on theocracy?"
"We have investigated." Wei Dong nodded. "The people here have a deep-seated belief in theocracy. It is extremely difficult to change them. We can basically give up on ideological salvation. It is simply unrealistic."
Considering that Amamiya Haruki was present, the conversation between the two was in Chinese. Lin Qiye, who was standing by, blinked when he heard this.
"Thought rescue? Is it difficult?" Lin Qiye asked doubtfully.
"Of course." The knight explained, repeating what he had said to Galan and the others before, "...There are too many people here. Let alone liberating the minds of so many people, even changing the minds of a few people is an extremely difficult task. There is no need for us to waste time on this."
Lin Qiye shrugged and said nothing.
Not long after, the light ball of [Yaoguang] floated to the surface of the water, and under Lin Qiye's control, it quickly moved towards the shore.
After getting ashore, they followed the route Amamiya Haruki and Lin Qiye took and found the car, but because there were too many people, they couldn't get in at all, and they immediately became distressed.
"How about this, you take this unconscious brother in the car, and the two of us will find another way to leave." The knight walked together with Wei Dong and said.
"No hurry." Lin Qiye suddenly said, he turned his head, looked at the other side of the road, and said slowly, "Someone will come to pick you up in a while."
