Ever since Gu Nan saw the woman named Third Last, he knew that she had something to do with his mission.
He did not need any hints from the Evil God's Temple, nor did he need any clues to guide him. He could tell that there was something wrong with her face just by looking at her face.
Although Third Last's attire seemed flirtatious, it did not match her temperament at all. A woman who had the intention of seducing someone would not make such a mistake.
Hence, there was only one possibility. She had other considerations, which was why she dressed up like that.
Based on that conjecture, it would be much easier for him to discover something when he looked at her face again. For example, there was actually a natural pattern between Third Last's eyebrows under the layers of patterns.
It was an exquisite eagle that ordinary people might not care about, but Gu Nan had seen its true form before.
It was Max.
This woman's blood was the real condition to activate Max. Gu Nan immediately thought of the intention of the game designer.
Even though there was no designer here.
Third Last was completely locked on by the Shadow Power and could only watch as her blood was being drained. She stammered, "Mr- Mr. Gu …"
"What's the matter?" Gu Nan looked up in confusion, but he did not stop moving his hands. He had already collected half a bottle of pale golden blood.
Third Last was momentarily at a loss for words.
She was here to find out what the White Mist's motive was for meeting Gu Nan. However, how could she ask Gu Nan that directly? She wouldn't dare to believe it even if Gu Nan told her.
Feng Lun, who was at the side, was dumbfounded. He finally snapped back to his senses and hollered, "Gu Nan! Hurry up and let this lady go. Even if you're on the Stars List, my father is … "
Bang!
Gu Nan sent him flying with a wave of Shadow Hand, dead or alive. Gu Nan would never show mercy to an NPC that had no value.
When Gu Nan's bottle was almost full, Gu Nan nodded in satisfaction and said to Third Last, "You said that you want to know why the White Mist is looking for me, right?"
When Three Last realized that she could move, she hurriedly stopped the bleeding and nodded repeatedly.
"During this period of time, you shall stay by my side. I'll bring you along when the time comes," Gu Nan said and lifted Third Last up, not giving her a chance to refuse at all.
He shook the bottle in his hand and felt that it could only produce a few dozen units of Max.
If this route was indeed the correct mission route, then he couldn't let this woman escape.
He soon left with Three Last and did not speak to Qin Xuanji at all, causing her to be in a daze. She had yet to react even after Gu Nan disappeared.
…
"Hey, don't you know Qin Xuanji?" Third Last asked Gu Nan on the way back.
When Qin Xuanji joined the organization, she talked about her previous experience. Although she didn't go into details, she did mention Gu Nan. That was why she came to ask Qin Xuanji for help.
However, she didn't expect Gu Nan to ignore her at all.
Gu Nan was slightly stunned and immediately said, "You might be related to the mission, so of course you're more important. I can't care about the others."
The players' logic had always been that they liked to chat with NPCs when they had nothing to do. When there was a mission, they would definitely go straight to the NPCs who were tasked with the mission. If they had to greet them one by one, they would be crazy.
"What mission?" Third Last asked curiously. She had just used the same trick that she used on Feng Lun on Gu Nan.
"I'm not sure yet, so I'm going to use some of your blood to try," Gu Nan answered seriously.
Third Last said, "I …"
…
Gu Nan brought Third Last to the laboratory where Professor Lu Ming, who was in charge of the experiment today, was also present. Gu Nan asked, "Professor Lu, is there anything abnormal about the target's data?"
"It's basically normal. The optimal feeding ratio shows that the target is tending to feed a small amount of food multiple times, "Lu Ming, who was an old man with white hair, said calmly.
Gu Nan nodded and took out a bag of pink crystals. "Use this to try feeding."
It was the medicine that he had secretly used Third Last's blood to produce in the Max Mark.
Lu Ming agreed and at the same time, he took the bag of crystals that Gu Nan had given him for a ratio analysis to see if there were any differences in its composition with the previous ones.
"That girl … What's going on with her?" Third Last asked curiously.
Gu Nan didn't care if she was testing him or not and simply said, "She has a large amount of Vital Energy accumulated in her body. Using this medicine can help her resolve her internal energy and also improve her cultivation level."
Then, Third Last exclaimed, "Has she been like this ever since she started cultivating?"
"You know?" Gu Nan squinted his eyes and thought to himself, Indeed. She's someone with the Max Mark between her eyebrows. How could she have nothing to do with the mission?
Third Last gritted her teeth and said, "Those with our bloodline are all like this, but …"
She wanted to keep him in suspense, but she looked at Gu Nan, who was still expressionless. Hence, she had no choice but to say, "However, the situation is generally not serious. The Vital Energy will gradually resolve it, and in turn, it will promote our cultivation."
Gu Nan nodded, but he was not in a hurry to take out the Max Mark. Lin Yunyun's condition was clearly not a simple mutation caused by her bloodline. Otherwise, she wouldn't have reached this stage.
After the Max Crystal made from Third Last's blood was fed to Lin Yunyun, there was a sudden change in the room.
It was as if Lin Yunyun had taken too much tonic all of a sudden. She began to yell and pound her surroundings frantically, destroying everything she could see.
Bang!
The custom-made glass in front of Gu Nan was strong enough to block the attack of a peak Connate Cultivator, but it was shattered by her majestic Vital Energy.
Without the isolation of the glass, even Third Last could feel the terrifying aura coming from her body. She was shocked to discover that Lin Yunyun's internal energy was much stronger than hers.
When she was young, Lin Yunyun had accumulated more than ten years of unhindered cultivation, allowing her Vital Energy to exceed that of ordinary cultivators. Now, it had been activated.
Lin Yunyun shrieked and dashed towards Gu Nan.
The latter's expression did not change as he stretched out his right hand and grabbed gently, after which Lin Yunyun was immediately held in the air by a shadow hand. She could not move at all.
Only then did Gu Nan slowly walk forward. Looking at the young girl's face, a faint smile appeared on his face, as well as a hint of relief from having solved a riddle.
Between her eyebrows, there was a faint green light flickering.
"I see."
…
The Lan siblings were walking side by side, and the younger sister, Lan Si, was making some witty remarks when her body suddenly trembled, and the same green light shone in the same position between her eyebrows.
Lan Ta's eyes widened, and he felt like he was about to burst into tears. "It's here! This is … the aura of a god! "
…
Not too far away, Qin Xuanji stopped in her tracks and took out a green crystal from her bosom. There was a fragment wrapped within the crystal, and the fragment was emitting a faint green light.
Hence, she smiled faintly and put the crystal back, after which she sent a message. "The target has appeared."
…
Near Qin Xuanji's residence, Feng Lun crawled out of the ruins. He could not withstand Gu Nan's attack, and he could not stop vomiting blood.
His blood flowed down his neck and onto the pendant in front of his chest. The blue round stone on top of the pendant seemed to be attracted by something and began to emit a faint light.
Feng Lun lowered his head in confusion, only to realize that there was a coolness coming from the round stone, which instantly spread to his limbs and bones. It made him feel extremely comfortable, and his injuries began to recover gradually.
"This feels great! What treasure is this? " Feng Lun looked at the round stone in surprise. "It's indeed something that Dad brought back from the ancient ruins!"
