While Felix was preparing the route of retreat, he sent his personal guard to squat outside the laboratory to wait for Dean and report to him immediately if there was any movement. However, not long after the guards he sent out left, they came running back.
Felix's heart skipped a beat when he saw the guard rushing back. The guard hurriedly said, "President, Mr. Lucifer isn't in the laboratory. I asked the guards, and no one saw him go in!"
Felix's heart sank.
The next moment, he suddenly thought of Faelor who had just left, and his face changed.
"President, were you looking for me?" At this time, a light voice was heard.
Felix instinctively shuddered. He looked up and saw Dean slowly walking down the steps with a smile on his face. He was very easy-going, but Felix could feel the chill in Dean's eyes, as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
After standing there for two seconds, Felix reacted. His face took a 180-degree turn, and he squeezed out a smile. "Where did you go? I was just about to find you!"
When the surrounding guards heard this, they all cast strange looks at Felix.
Felix was in no mood to pay attention to anything else at the moment. His heart was pounding, and he was full of panic. He was afraid that Dean would kill him on the spot. This demon was overbearing and cruel. He couldn't use common sense to infer anything.
"Then let's go to your office to talk," Dean said.
Felix's face was pale, and he nodded. "Alright, alright."
The two entered the office and closed the door. The soundproofing effect of Felix's office was very strong. Unless there was a loud quarrel inside, one wouldn't be able to hear what was said even if they stood by the door. After all, these people had ordinary physiques.
Dean sat down on Felix's office chair. Seeing that no one was gossiping outside, he put his ear to the door to eavesdrop. Then he said to Felix, "Are you going to sneak out? You're a very smart person. Why do you always do these stupid things? "
Felix's mouth twitched. He suddenly felt that his lips were a bit sour recently. He touched his mouth and smiled bitterly. "How could I sneak out? We're in the wilderness, and there's nowhere to run."
Dean saw that he didn't admit it, so he didn't continue to ask. He sighed: "There is such a big opportunity in front of you, but you treat it as a danger. This is why you are ordinary until now. The opportunity is in front of you, but you can't grasp it!"
Felix froze for a moment and was confused. Dean said that he was ordinary, which made him speechless. He was the president of the Hosk Company in Copper Ship City. Even the mayor of Copper Ship City had to be polite to me and call me brother. How could this be called ordinary? How do you expect those people who are quietly building society to feel?!
He could only keep this thought in his mind, not daring to refute it. He innocently asked, "Opportunity? What opportunity? "
Dean was speechless: "Am I not your opportunity?"
"Uh …" Felix was dumbfounded. He was puzzled, but he didn't dare to rashly ask for fear of angering Dean. After thinking for a moment, he tactfully asked: "Although you are powerful, but I'm just an ordinary person. I really don't understand …"
Dean suddenly felt that he might have chosen the wrong person. He was silent for a moment, and then said with an indifferent expression: "I can make a deal with you. I'll let your status in the Locke consortium rise to the position you've always dreamed of, and I also need you to help me a little. After all, my identity in the Federation is somewhat sensitive, and it's not suitable for me to appear in public."
Felix suddenly realized that Dean was looking for him to cooperate!
"The opportunity he's talking about is cooperation. No, this is not cooperation. He wants me to become his puppet and help him lurk in the Federation!!" Felix instantly sobered up, and his heart went cold. His first reaction was to refuse, but he was afraid of angering Dean, so he immediately prepared to use a tactful way to express himself, or to promise first to stabilize the demon …
Suddenly, a thought emerged in his mind. With the help of the demon's power, maybe I can climb to a higher position in the family!
As soon as this idea came out, he was shocked. He hurriedly abandoned the idea, not daring to think about it.
It had to be known that the crime of colluding with the demon was the most serious crime in the Federation!
Although he had cultivated the demon in private, it was completely different from colluding with the demon! Cultivating the demon was the business of the Locke consortium, and the consortium would bear the responsibility if something went wrong. But colluding with the real demon was not only a violation of the interests of the people, but the four consortiums were also victims. No one would stand on his side and bear the responsibility for him!
Dean quietly looked at Felix. Although his face remained calm, his slightly trembling eyelids, his pounding heartbeat, and the accelerated secretion of cold sweat from his pores all showed his nervousness and uneasiness.
He didn't disturb him, but quietly waited for him to sort out his thoughts.
After a while, Felix's violently beating heart gradually calmed down, but it was still beating very fast. "I'm a little curious. Why didn't you talk to me about cooperation in the beginning?"
Dean looked straight into his eyes and said, "Because the moment I came out of the cage, I wanted to kill everyone here."
Felix took a light breath. He felt the air was cold, and his heart was about to freeze. He suddenly thought of Dean's indifferent eyes when he was doing the experiment. It seemed that there was no emotion in his eyes. It turned out that in his heart, he had already regarded everyone in the factory as dead people!
If this place was completely slaughtered, then Dean's whereabouts would naturally be hidden!
"Then why did you change your mind?" Felix swallowed his saliva and asked in a trembling voice.
Dean thought for a moment and said, "Because I think you still have some value."
Felix was startled, and his heart inexplicably relaxed a lot. But suddenly he became nervous again. Did Dean see his value because of the deal they just talked about? If that was the case, then refusing the deal was tantamount to suicide!
"I promise you." Felix didn't think much and happily agreed. As long as he could get rid of Dean, there would be ways to punish him in the future.
"Locke Felix, 26 years old. He was born in the Locke consortium. His father is a director of the consortium. Unmarried. He graduated from the Royal University of Shengying. He has a PhD in mecha department …" Dean spoke in an indifferent tone.
"You, how do you know?!" Felix was inexplicably shocked and involuntarily interrupted Dean's words.
Dean indifferently said, "You are not the only one here who is willing to submit to me."
"But you never left me!" Felix couldn't help but shout.
"But you need to sleep," Dean said.
Felix was startled. He understood that when he was sleeping, Dean had contacted others. Thinking of this, his heart was filled with bursts of cold air. He had slept many times. Who knew how many things he had done in such a long time?
He suddenly felt that the people around him weren't worthy of trust. No one knew if there were traitors among them who were on Dean's side.
