Wonderful.
Qin Sheng smiled behind them.
That's ruthless enough, but it's a bit lacking.
"Make way, I think he can still be saved."
Shang Wu said calmly, "It seems Xuzhou has won."
But now that the City of Creation is in control, will the Church of Creation win?
Are you sure?
Shen Qing found an appropriate outlet.
"His suspicions can be largely dispelled."
Shang Wu's expression remained unchanged, making it impossible to discern his true intentions.
"Alright..."
Shen Qing didn't say anything more, and a pill with black and white patterns was fed into Xu Zhou's mouth.
The wound on his abdomen healed rapidly, and in an instant, it was no longer visible that he had been stabbed.
Chen Yu was stunned for a moment: "Isn't this effect a bit terrifying?"
"well enough."
Xu Ruiling casually said, "This pill isn't even the top-grade one; the really high-grade ones might even be able to bring the dead back to life."
Shangwu nodded. Theoretically, the Nirvana Fruit could do that, and it could even wash away a person's talent, turning them into a genius.
However, it was too precious for anyone to try, and it remained stored in Kaitian City until the appearance of Qin Sheng, a scientific genius.
His achievements proved that the think tank members were right.
After all, the think tank had spent two days and two nights studying Qin Sheng's paper and finally concluded that he was worthy of Kaitian City using the Nirvana Fruit.
The subsequent appearances of fake monsters and living weapons further prove this point.
"Really?" Chenyu asked skeptically.
Since there are pills with such miraculous effects, why not just cough them up when facing strange beasts?
"It's not as much as you think."
Shangwu said quietly, "This one was originally meant to save my life."
Chenyu: "Uh..."
Seeing his embarrassed look, Shangwu smiled and said, "Just kidding. Although this kind of pill is rare, it's just that it's relatively difficult for me to obtain."
"You scared me."
Chenyu sensed that Shangwu seemed to trust them, and joked, "But I can't afford to pay for it. How about I give you the boss instead?"
"Um?"
Xu Ruiling defensively clung to Shang Wu's arm, as if asserting her dominance.
"No, Ling'er?" Shang Wu's face darkened. What did that mean?
"The world is full of wonders, what's wrong with me taking precautions?"
"Six o'clock," Chenyu complained.
Shangwu tapped her on the head and said irritably, "What are you thinking about all day?"
Qin Sheng sat on a rock next to him, propping his head up with his hand. He really likes to show off their love, doesn't he?
"Um?"
Xu Zhou, leaning against the rock, murmured and opened his eyes in confusion: "What... is going on?"
"Boss! You're awake?"
Chenyu asked with delight, "How are you feeling?"
"I…"
Xu Zhou touched the side of his stomach, and it was completely intact and healed!
He won?
We won!
I was overjoyed, but at the same time, I felt a wave of fear.
He thought that if he closed his eyes, he would never wake up again.
"It was this... uh, friend who saved you." Chen Yu scratched his head, still unaware of Shang Wu's and the other man's names.
"Hello, I am Shang Wu, an investigator sent by Kaitian Academy to investigate District 11."
Xu Zhou introduced himself and said sincerely, "Mr. Shang, thank you very much for saving me. Please feel free to contact me if you need anything."
"There is a need right now."
Xu Zhou nodded: "Investigating District 11, it seems the higher-ups discovered the problem with the believers before I did."
"That's about right. I only recently learned that."
Shangwu continued, "Chenyu said you discovered the Creation Cult's stronghold, which is why you were hunted down by the cultists, is that right?"
"Yes."
Xu Zhou wanted to continue speaking, but he was interrupted.
"Okay, I understand, but before that, I want you to explain how you managed to turn Area 11 into what it is now."
"You mean martial artists and commoners?"
"right."
Shang Wu didn't hide anything, glancing at Shen Qing beside him and saying, "Shen Qing, he's someone the higher-ups have confirmed is safe, and he was also the first to discover the presence of cult members in District 11."
"According to him, the city guard in District 11 has been infiltrated by cultists, and you received strong support from the city guard when you began to make sweeping changes to District 11."
Shangwu coldly questioned, "You, are you also a believer?"
Xu Zhou glanced at Shen Qing beside him and knew that this was Qin Sheng in disguise, a move he made to gain the trust of the two of them.
But I couldn't help but complain inside.
The underling betrays the boss, so why does the boss turn around and sell him out?
However, he had already prepared various contingency plans in order to address some of the loopholes left over from the past.
"Even the city's defense forces have been corrupted..."
Xu Chang sighed: "What you're saying doesn't really concern me. It was Lord Kuangzhan, also known as the old King, who approached me after Chang Liangshu broke through."
"Y proposed improvements to District 11, and I was just lucky enough to be chosen to push this forward."
"The Berserker Wolf." Shangwu frowned, recalling the title bestowed upon this king. "Wait, wasn't he the one who spearheaded the division between warriors and ordinary people?"
"That's right, that's what I asked at the time."
Xu Zhou explained: "He said at the time that martial artists were ordinary people before they became martial artists, and I should also face up to my dark history and the path I came from."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "Lord Berserker was often bullied by martial artists and never won a fight. He gradually became a bit twisted. Before leaving, he wandered around the city and then came to me."
"I understand, I need to confirm." Shangwu took out his phone and said, "You don't mind, do you?"
"certainly."
A moment later, Shangwu received a message on his phone.
Kuangzhan did indeed ask Xuzhou for help, but he changed his mind because he saw a child being bullied in an alley while patrolling the city.
The injured child didn't blame the abuser, but instead blamed himself for being too weak.
This made Berserker realize that Area 11 had become pathological, which is why he wanted to make changes.
After confirming this, Shangwu said frankly, "I'm sorry, but since believers can now be just like ordinary people, I have to be careful."
"It's alright," Xu Zhou said nonchalantly.
"Shall we talk about the Creation Cult's stronghold?"
"good."
Xu Zhou pondered and said, "As you know, I am a businessman. I recently took a fancy to a piece of land. I plan to acquire it and build a meeting hall for martial artists to spread their knowledge and resolve their doubts."
"Everything was going smoothly until an accident occurred when I sent people to design the site according to the blueprints."
“People who went there became very slow and procrastinated after they came back, delaying the project.”
"I initially thought they had encountered some difficulties, but they were reluctant to pay the design fee because they couldn't solve them, so they were trying to find a solution."
"So I decided to go check it out, but then..."
Xu Zhou said solemnly, "They are already preaching there, but what they are preaching is..."
"Creationism!"
