The inexplicable crying left Xu Fan and Daisy completely baffled.
"Just say what's wrong! Crying won't solve anything!"
Xu Fan impatiently poked the other person's body with the stick in his hand.
Daisy simply embraced the person with a maternal hug.
While gently patting the other person's back, she said softly, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, we're all here. You can tell us anything, and we can help you solve any difficulties you may have."
Whether it was Xu Fan's threat or Daisy's warmth, the man quickly calmed down.
"Something's happened to the Brotherhood. A group of people in gray robes broke into our base, killed our leader on the spot, and ordered us to go to a small dark room."
"And then, continue!"
"Several of us brothers went into that small dark room, but most of us never came out again. Only a few of us were lucky enough to pass the test and come out of the small dark room alive."
"Did you see anything in that little dark room?"
Xu Fan asked the question very casually, but the member of the biker gang was so frightened that his face turned pale and his lips trembled uncontrollably.
The thought of his experience in that dark room sent chills down his spine.
"That little dark room had everything, and yet it had nothing."
When we first went in, the light from outside made it clear that the room was empty. But
Once the door was closed, we felt as if we were being watched from all sides.
Then, starting from my ankles, I felt something cold that slowly crept up my trouser legs.
We screamed, we confessed, we struggled in the dark room, and we ran around.
But that feeling was like a maggot clinging to my bone, impossible to get rid of no matter what I did.
Some people couldn't bear the oppression and committed suicide in the dark room, while others were able to endure it but eventually went insane.
Only because we had been through the ordeal with Brother Xu Fan did we feel that nothing could shock us anymore, which is why we were lucky enough to survive.
"So, did you acquire superpowers while in that dark room?"
The man looked at Xu Fan with a terrified expression, as if Xu Fan had suddenly revealed his innermost thoughts.
"That's right, that's right. We came out of the dark room and then gained power that didn't originally belong to us."
We've had our supernatural abilities checked at the academy before, and people like us are completely talentless.
He could only do the most menial tasks, but unexpectedly, he gained entirely new powers in that small, dark room.
We felt that the power did not belong to us, but was borrowed from others.
Every time we use our abilities, we feel as if a part of our soul is being taken away.
Therefore, we are very cautious in using our abilities in all situations.
Based on this passage, Xu Fan began to conclude that this group of people were likely being parasitized by some evil entity.
And those people in gray robes are very likely part of that mysterious cult.
I never imagined they would expand their sphere of influence to the capital.
They uprooted the local power brokers in the capital—the Brotherhood—and sent these underlings, whom they had modified, to the United States to carry out missions.
"So who's your boss now?"
The younger brother shook his head vigorously, like a rattle drum.
"We never saw each other's faces clearly, we only knew that he was wearing a red robe."
"Why are there suddenly more people in red robes?"
Do people in this organization use rainbow colors to distinguish their status and positions? That's really strange.
Despite his complaints, Xu Fan still remembered to get down to business.
"So many of you have infiltrated the United States, there must be some mission involved, otherwise why would they invest such a large amount of manpower and resources?"
When asked this crucial question, the man trembled all over.
"It's not that I don't want to talk about it, it's just that they've set a taboo."
The man opened his mouth and stuck out his tongue, and on his tongue was a plump worm.
The insect's color was almost identical to its tongue; were it not for its tiny antennae and the antennae that clung tightly to its tongue, it would be difficult to notice anything unusual about it.
Xu Fan frowned, puzzled. What kind of forbidden technique was this that was so terrifying?
At this moment, Xu Fan could neither use the items in his backpack, nor his own talents, and he had even lost the system.
Therefore, there was no way to help that person remove the worms from their tongue.
As a dragon, Desis knew very little about the secret techniques possessed by other races and sects.
"Alright, you can go back now. But you must keep a close eye on your companions' movements and report to me promptly. I assure you I will keep you safe and won't put you in any danger."
Although Xu Fan had given that biker gang member a good beating, he still felt a sense of kinship with a fellow countryman in this foreign land.
Although he knew that Xu Fan's promise was somewhat unreliable, he was already very satisfied that someone could say a few comforting words in this desperate situation.
The man nodded repeatedly and then left the storage room.
Xu Fan and Daisy began to discuss their next steps.
Their attention should first be focused on the man in the yellow robe.
After all, he was following this group into Studio One in the United States.
