Chapter 165 165. The Archbishop’s True Purpose
Following Mu Qingtong's low shout, Xia Feng's eyes became clear and he suddenly woke up!
"Hmm?" The woman in his mind was surprised. "A woman's voice? Xiao Feng, who is she?"
Xia Feng's eyelids twitched slightly. He was careless after all. He didn't expect that Sister Yi could control his mind directly through sound regardless of distance.
If Mu Qingtong hadn't been there, he might have really lost Jingzhou due to carelessness.
"Gong Changyi, what do you mean?" Xia Feng said in a bad tone.
"Hey, don't be angry, Xiao Feng, sister was just joking with you~"
"Hehe~" Xia Feng was too lazy to deal with this guy anymore. He threw the blood-eyed mask aside and disconnected the link.
"Xiao Feng~Xiao Feng?"
"Hmm? Are you still there?"
"Hey—where are the people?"
"Running away again?"
"Tsk~"
*
"Thank you for that." Xia Feng raised his eyes and looked at the woman in the black dress with a serious tone.
Mu Qingtong slowly put down her hand, frowned and said softly: "Be more careful next time. Your mental strength is so low, don't touch anything carelessly."
"I know, I know." Xia Feng replied helplessly, "This time it was purely an accident. I didn't expect that sound could directly affect the mind."
"Hey! Can you two stop chatting? Do you still want the white jade glass?" The woman in the snow skirt had some mud on her face. She stood under the tree and pursed her lips and said unhappily.
"Here I come."
Xia Feng and the other person walked under the tree. Cha Naixue held a palm-sized flower shaped like a white lotus in her palm. The pistil emitted a milky white halo, and the petals were crystal clear like glass.
"It is indeed white jade glass." Xia Feng nodded with satisfaction and turned to look at the woman in the black dress. "Let's go, Miss Mu, let's find a place to advance to the third level!"
Mu Qingtong was stunned and asked in confusion: "Now?"
"Of course, time waits for no one."
Along with the white jade glass, two grams of ice soil were also unearthed. This is a fourth-level material with a spiritual nature that is more water-based.
Although Xia Feng's element is water, he naturally doesn't need this thing.
"Cha Naxue, you only need the ice and soil, right? Here, I'll give it to you."
Seeing Xia Feng handing over the ice soil, Chana Xue was stunned: "You, didn't you say you wouldn't give it to me?"
"Why, you don't want it? Fine then—"
"Yes, I want it." Cha Naixue quickly held down Xia Feng's big hand, pursed her lips and blushed slightly. After hesitating for a moment, she whispered, "Thank you."
"No need to thank me." Xia Feng smiled and patted her messy hair. "As long as you remember your identity as a slave girl, that's all."
"." The joy that had just risen in Chanaixue's heart disappeared instantly. She raised her eyes expressionlessly, staring at Xia Feng with her purple pupils.
Xia Feng didn't care. He patted her delicate face gently and turned around: "Let's go back to the underground laboratory."
Chanaxue glanced at the ice soil in her hand, pursed her lips and put it away carefully.
The Black Moon Church has 90% of the spiritual materials of the third level and below, but spiritual materials starting from the fourth level are very rare, especially this Ice Glazed Soil, which even the head office of the Church may not have.
She has already gathered all the other materials, and with the addition of ice soil, she has all the materials needed to advance to the fourth level.
Now all that’s left is to raise the spiritual pressure to the peak of the third level, which will take some time.
Once she reaches the fourth level, and then the fifth level, she'll have the support of the Church. And after reaching the fifth level, will she have to face Xia Feng? Haha~
By then, Xia Feng will probably regret giving her this Ice Soil today.
Cha Naixue stared at the back of her childhood sweetheart in the distance, her beautiful eyes flashing with cold light. Her current goal is to quickly improve her strength and then reverse the slave contract!
Let this childhood sweetheart become her male slave! By then, even if Xia Feng doesn't want to practice "Double Moon" with her, he won't be able to do it.
Back in the basement lab, over 300 people sat cross-legged on the floor, lost in thought. Jiang Zhizi was still holding her gardenia, gazing at it intently, mumbling something to herself.
Looking at this group of people, Xia Feng shook his head helplessly, not knowing how they would live when they returned to the real society.
"Okay, Cha Naxue, Miss Mu and I are going to be promoted to the third level. Please protect us and don't let anyone get close."
Cha Naixue was a little surprised. She didn't expect Xia Feng to be so confident in her.
You know, if she suddenly attacked at the critical moment when Xia Feng was promoted to the third level, she would definitely be able to severely damage the demon.
"Sister Naixue, I believe you have the awareness of being a female slave and will not do anything wrong." Xia Feng patted the shoulder of the woman in the snow-white skirt, smiled kindly, and turned to walk towards the room.
Cha Nai Xue: “.”
Mu Qingtong looked back at Cha Naixue and whispered, "Mr. Xia, are you sure she won't attack you?"
"Don't worry, there's no problem." Xia Feng smiled confidently. Of course there's no problem, because I don't need a promotion at all~ Naturally, there is no critical moment for promotion.
"Ms. Mu, hurry up, you'd better hurry up, I'm promoted very quickly." Xia Feng raised the corner of his mouth and said proudly, "I guarantee that I will succeed before you."
"?" Mu Qingtong glanced at Xia Feng calmly: "Not bad, quite confident."
The two stood at the door opposite each other, Xia Feng's arrogant expression and Mu Qingtong's reserved pride met each other's eyes, the door slowly closed, clicked - it was locked.
Xia Feng stood in front of the door for a while, blinking, humming with joy, and sat down casually on a cold laboratory table.
Now, all we have to do is wait for Mu Shen to complete his promotion.
But before that, he had one very important thing to do.
That is the Wheel of Life.
The Wheel of Life has a cycle of fifteen days, and today is the time to enter it. This is one of the reasons why he hurried back to the underground laboratory just now.
[Transmission countdown: 9 minutes]
Time passed slowly, and soon, the view changed.
This time he still came in as No. 17. It was his fourth time entering this damn place, and he felt like he had been home for a long time.
Walk to the operating table.
Current HP: (21+24) 45
Ever since he spent 44 life points to buy the Rectification Order, his account had shrunk to only 21 points. But then he unexpectedly heard that Player No. 16, the old lady who played the role of a young woman in Yuanhe Orphanage, directly transferred 25 points to him, making his account more abundant again.
I can buy, buy, buy again~
"Welcome back, ladies and gentlemen—"
In a world as dark as the abyss, spotlights shine in the center of thirty-seven tall pillars.
"The fourth round of predation has ended, and we are now proceeding to—"
The referee, wearing a pure black mask, opened his arms wide and said jokingly, "Primary sacrifice stage!"
Xia Feng, who was bored and holding his chin, waiting for the evolution stage to begin, was stunned and looked up. The primary sacrifice stage?
What the hell? There are rules I don't know about?
"That's right, everyone. To reward you for sticking with us until this moment, we've specially established a primary sacrificial stage before the fourth round of evolution—"
"The rules for this stage are very simple. Please look at the panel."
Xia Feng looked down.
[Primary Sacrifice Stage: Sacrifice 9,900 Lost People to receive a 100 HP bonus!]
[The Lost Person: Lost hope for life, lost basic emotional responses, no longer hate, no longer love, at the mercy of others, like a robot]
[Sacrifice method: Use a spiritual tool to touch the soul of the 'Lost Person'. The Life Wheel will automatically count.]
Seeing this rule, Xia Feng's pupils suddenly shrank abnormally, "Lost. Lost people? Damn, so that's how it is!"
He finally understood everything. No wonder Huayuan had to torture those people.
Obviously, they could provide better services to the nobles, but they chose to invest more financial resources and spend more energy to repair those ordinary people or noble ladies who were broken and put them into use again.
From this perspective, it is obvious that the purpose of the owner of the garden, or the archbishop, is actually life points?
Thinking of this, Xia Feng was shocked. The orphanage had sent at least two thousand people to the garden over the years, but there were only three hundred people left in the garden now.
Therefore, those who disappeared are probably in the hands of the Archbishop. Once they leave the Wheel of Life, the Archbishop will absorb those lost people as sacrifices.
Of course, two thousand people is just a conservative estimate. God knows how many lost people this archbishop has collected over the years.
