The No.1 they were talking about was Mute, who was working undercover beside Dafeng. With No.1's early-stage Foundation Establishment Realm strength, there should be no danger in doing such a small thing. That was why they sent him out with ease. Who would have thought that an early-stage Foundation Establishment Realm expert would get into trouble?
Was there really something wrong with Dafeng? Lan Xiaoru was shocked. She had this suspicion since half a year ago. Although Big Brother Feng did not mention it openly, it was too obvious that he was trying all kinds of ways to inquire about the central headquarters. It was not strange for the branch members to have this kind of curiosity, but it was rare to see someone as proactive as him. With Lan Xiaoru's cautious and suspicious personality, she naturally had to do a thorough investigation.
However, even if Dafeng could control the entire Red Conch branch, it was impossible for him to deal with No.1 with his manpower and strength. After all, he was an early-stage Foundation Establishment Realm expert! Even if he was outnumbered, he should at least be able to escape, right?
"According to Dafeng's report, it's said that it was done by a Heavenly Dao Realm expert from the Archaic Alliance. That person even tamed a huge Blood Corpse Bug. Number One fought with him in the sea, and after that, there was no trace of him. They probably died together." The glasses doctor sighed.
"Archaic Alliance? How did they offend the Archaic Alliance? " Lan Xiaoru frowned. In fact, ever since she found out that the Archaic Alliance had appeared, she had been sending people to investigate the Archaic Alliance. Although she hadn't made any direct contact, she still knew a lot of things through various channels. She couldn't help but ask doubtfully, "Why did I hear that the people from the Archaic Alliance have been summoned back?"
"I didn't ask in detail. I only heard that person seemed to be from the Evil Warding Sect. He should be one of the few cultivators that the Archaic Alliance left outside." The doctor in glasses speculated.
"Maybe." Lan Xiaoru's expression was unfathomable. After a moment of silence, she snorted, "Damn it. In the first batch of ten, only one succeeded. Now the second batch has encountered a bottleneck because they couldn't find a suitable test subject. I didn't expect that the only surviving No.1 would get into trouble. How do you want me to explain this to the higher-ups?"
"Doctor Lan, I have an idea." The doctor in glasses suddenly smiled.
"What idea?" Lan Xiaoru looked at him and asked.
"With the conditions in the secular world, finding a suitable experimental subject is like looking for a needle in a haystack. This is the key reason why we've encountered a bottleneck, but don't we have a ready-made target now?" The bespectacled doctor smiled sinisterly.
"You mean the Archaic Alliance?" Lan Xiaoru frowned.
"That's right, Professor Lan. Think about it carefully. Our mission is to mass-produce Foundation Establishment experts, and it would be best if we could achieve that in the secular world. But since we've reached a bottleneck, there's no harm in changing our thinking. If we can find a way to get a Foundation Establishment expert from the Archaic Alliance, it'll be much easier to control him than to make one ourselves, right?" The bespectacled doctor adjusted his trademark black-rimmed glasses.
"Go on," Lan Xiaoru said calmly.
"As long as we can control the first one, it'll be much easier to get the second and third. That way, it won't be long before we can control a large number of Foundation Establishment experts! This way, not only will we be able to fulfill the requirements of the higher-ups, but we might even be able to go one step further and start mass production of Golden Core experts. After all, those people are from the Archaic Alliance, and their qualities will definitely be much better than the cultivators in the secular world. With them as the experimental subjects, the success rate will definitely be much higher! "The more the bespectacled doctor spoke, the more excited he became. In his opinion, this was a genius idea.
"That's not a bad idea." Lan Xiaoru couldn't help but feel a little tempted when she heard this. She was very clear that mass-producing Foundation Establishment experts was only the first step. The next step was to continue mass-producing Golden Core experts. With the conditions of the secular world's experimental samples, even Foundation Establishment experts would be hard to satisfy, let alone Golden Core experts.
For their experiments, the quality of the samples was the most crucial factor in determining success or failure. The same experiment method could easily succeed on Heavenly Island, but it wouldn't work in the secular world. No matter how much they improved it, the success rate would never increase. In the end, it was because the quality of the samples was too poor. They couldn't compare to Heavenly Island at all.
But now, the Archaic Alliance suddenly appeared. Even if their strength couldn't compare to Heavenly Island, it was much, much higher than the secular world. This was practically a ready-made human body material delivered to their doorstep!
"Professor Lan, the second batch of human experiments has been at a stalemate for half a year now, and there hasn't been any substantial progress. Even if the higher-ups don't say anything, they will definitely be dissatisfied in private. We need to produce results urgently." The bespectacled doctor urged.
"But this matter with the Archaic Alliance is no small matter. If the news gets out, it will be a huge threat to our headquarters. This matter must be reported to the higher-ups and discussed. We can't act rashly." Lan Xiaoru finally managed to maintain her rationality. This kind of thing would cause a huge mess if she were to act rashly.
"Yes, yes. This matter is of great importance. We definitely have to ask the higher-ups." The bespectacled doctor quickly agreed.
"Right, transfer Dafeng over. He's the branch's leader, and he has been in direct contact with the Archaic Alliance. He should know some useful information. Have a good chat with him." Lan Xiaoru ordered.
"Okay." The bespectacled doctor nodded. As for his previous suspicions about Dafeng, he temporarily put them aside. After all, No.1 had been investigating for half a year without finding anything substantial. It could be seen that there shouldn't be any problems with this person. Not to mention, even if he was transferred to the central headquarters, he wouldn't have access to any core secrets. Even if there was a problem, it wouldn't be a problem.
A moment later, the bespectacled doctor conveyed Lan Xiaoru's order. Dafeng couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard it. It was just a flash of inspiration, but he didn't expect that he would actually be able to deceive the other party!
Even Lin Yi didn't expect things to go so smoothly. He had always wanted to inquire about the various matters of the central headquarters. Now that Dafeng was directly transferred to the central headquarters because of this matter, he could easily obtain first-hand information. This was truly a pleasant surprise.
