Yin Le's fingers and the tips of her feet were a bit cold and stiff. She forced herself not to look at the interface of the work area. At the same time, she used telepathic control to gradually fade out the switching mode. She did her best to hide an irrelevant diagram and data to the forefront.
This process went quite smoothly. At the very least, Luo Nan didn't expose her. Perhaps he didn't discover it? But that person's telepathic thoughts continued to tap on their mental plane without end, forming a clear message:
"Why are you looking for me? What do you want to talk about? "
Luo Nan's reasonable inquiry seemed to be played down. He didn't use much effort, but this method was the most inconceivable of pressures. Yin Le suddenly realized the hidden meaning behind Luo Nan's method of communicating across space.
Eighty kilometers! Perhaps there were a few psychic Extraordinaries in the world who could cover the range of their attacks up to this point. They could even increase their attack range by ten times, twenty times. But they were certainly formed by borrowing the turbulent storm of the abyssal region's configuration. They would certainly leave behind corresponding traces.
Relying on the Bloodsoul Temple, which was solidified in the abyssal region, to block the storm was one thing. Whether or not there was a warning was another.
The Bloodsoul Temple did not respond at all when Luo Nan's telepathic thoughts entered. Either Luo Nan's ability to control the turbulent storm of the abyssal region had reached the acme of perfection, far surpassing the level of the vast majority of Extraordinaries in the world, far surpassing the level of the Bloodsoul Temple, or he didn't use the abyssal region at all. He relied on pure soul strength to cover his own mental network in this region, capturing the mental domains of the two First Oblatums of the Bloodflame Order and effectively interfering with them.
No matter what the result was, it possessed a terrifying might that shattered common sense. It was precisely Yin Le's understanding that caused this might to manifest. It was as if dark thunderclouds converged to press down on her mind. This was even more suffocating than what she experienced in the Aurora Cloud Capital.
Unknowingly, the chill from Yin Le's fingers and toes had already seeped up her spine. Half of her back was drenched in cold sweat. A thin layer of sweat seeped out. Mrs. Halder's voice rang out in a timely manner at this time. She no longer used Fei Jin's meaningless channel. She spoke as if she was chatting normally.
"We wish to ask Mr. Luo about the origins of the Mound of Bones in the sea outside of Xia City."
Yin Le gaped, but no sound came out. It was purely an instinctive reaction of unease. Lady Halder's words struck the most sensitive part. This should have been the ultimate goal of their roundabout investigation … Well, there was no longer any room for roundabout investigation.
On the mental plane, Luo Nan's answer was simple and direct. "I have no reason to explain it to you."
"Then, Mr. Luo, what you're implying is that there is nothing wrong with our 'request for release', and it's all up to you whether you want to explain or not?"
Yin Le bit her lower lip. Lady Halder's tone was very calm, but in reality, she was using sophistry to forcefully fight for space under Luo Nan's pressure. This was something he couldn't do no matter what.
She rocked back and forth in her chair. Madame Halder's body language was very relaxed. She had a smile on her face, and she even had the leisure to adjust the position of her crossed legs. "Then please allow me to draw a preliminary conclusion. The hill of bones in the outer seas of Xia City, which may be the key to killing Jin Tong, is constructed according to the fundamental secret technique of my order, the Bloodsoul Temple. Mr. Luo, through some kind of method, you have mastered this strange technique that even I, the First Oblatum, cannot achieve … Your talent is truly admirable and enviable. "
Over at Aurora Cloud City, Luo Nan's lips twitched. He had peeped many times at Madame Halder's performance as she grasped the entire situation. He was no longer amazed, but he still wasn't easy to deal with.
He had already placed the Luo Nan Ruler in Yin Le's mind, causing it to rapidly expand and pry open the defenses of her mind. Collapse was only a matter of time. However, Madame Halder was able to control the waves in her mind quite well. The ruler was indeed permeating, but the prying strength was not obvious.
Luo Nan had long since prepared himself for the ruthlessness of her decision and the sharpness of her words. He was not angry. He completely abandoned Fei Jin, who only knew how to pose, and continued to try to control the expansion and contraction of the Luo Nan Ruler. He also wanted to hear what Madame Halder had to say next.
"The signature dish of our family has been served to the table by the chef of another family. When encountering such a thing, it is hard for one's heart to remain calm … Of course, Mr. Luo, you can use it to kill Jin Tong. This ability already exceeds the limits of the Bloodsoul Temple. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem like you obtained it from our shabby order. Your actions are righteous. You stand upright. You don't need to give us any explanation."
Madame Halder smiled in self-mockery. She was clearly speaking to the air, but it was like a monologue of a famous actor. It was vivid and natural.
Several dozen kilometers away, Luo Nan's face heated up a bit.
Madame Halder's words seemed to stand on Luo Nan's side. She spoke in an extremely humble manner, but there were clearly sharp thorns hidden within … … At least this was what Luo Nan heard.
The Bloodsoul Temple was a secret technique that Luo Nan had obtained from the Bloodflame Order. The root of the technique was that the Wraith Sign had come to occupy the nest of the Wraith Sign when Mo Lun had forcefully seized Jack's remnant soul to nourish his Face Arachnid. The Bloodflame Order didn't really do anything to Luo Nan from then on. They just obediently grew up. They were completely unaware that their hard work of herding the Wraith Sign had gone to great lengths. What was originally a small enmity was compounded by Luo Nan's interest. He played with the Wraith Sign's nest in the end.
Yes, he even gave a Mo Lun puppet in the end.
Luo Nan was a bit embarrassed, more or less. However, he was more curious about Madame Halder's mental state.
This First Oblatum, who was supposed to play the role of a stray dog, was able to freely turn the situation around in the face of powerful oppression. It wasn't just an act.
Did she have something to rely on? It didn't seem like it … … Looking at the fluctuations on the mental plane, it was absolutely not the relaxed state of one's mind. It was more like a state of excitement, stimulating enjoyment from the mind to the body.
This woman was enjoying the dangerous situation she was currently in.
"How interesting."
Not only was Luo Nan not annoyed, his intense curiosity and desire to investigate were aroused. He had a premonition that a special target like Madame Halder would be able to push his research to perfection. Just one of them was better than ten Yin Le's. It was better than a hundred or even a thousand of those drunken fellows on the rooftop.
Why hadn't he discovered this before!?
Luo Nan waved his hand and swept the sketches related to Fei Jin to the side in the virtual work area. He picked up his digital pen and quickly sketched lines in the work area. In the time it took to take a few breaths, Luo Nan was able to draw out most of Madame Halder's calm and composed bearing on the rocking chair.
However, this was far from enough.
It was also during this time that Madame Halder's voice drifted into his ears. "My order cannot ask you to do anything, Mr. Luo. I can only shamelessly plead. I plead for you to lend a helping hand for the sake of incense and incense."
Luo Nan focused on Madame Halder's expression as she opened and closed her red lips. Information related to this person's body and soul structure, Life Sketches, mental state, and many other layers of information converged. The material was plentiful, and the angles were diverse. However, the tip of his pen rose and fell several times in the soft light pervading the work area. It was hard for him to write.
There was a feeling that he wasn't able to grasp it.
However, Madame Halder's next words caused the tip of Luo Nan's pen to go crooked.
"... After all, we are also members of the Xia City branch. We belong to the same branch of ability users."
What the hell!?
Luo Nan couldn't help but raise his head and shout towards the inside of the room, "Madame Halder is a member of the Xia City branch?"
The two bodyguards looked at each other in dismay. They communicated with each other for a bit, and they actually gave an affirmative answer.
Without a doubt, this was the fault of the tenets of the ability user society. It was self-proclaimed to be the industry association that accommodated all ability users of the entire world, and the members of this secret order were also ability users. In theory, they could only maintain an open attitude towards related personnel joining the society.
However, there were very few people like Madame Halder, who brought the elites of the order to join, and who paid the membership fee regularly.
Luo Nan drew two lines on the sketch and shook his head. This really was a sufficient reason!
Madame Halder's gaze was bright, and the corner of her lips perked up. It was as if she was communicating with a friend. She was frank and straightforward. "Of course, just based on the Bloodsoul Temple alone, I believe that Mr. Luo will look at the Bloodflame Order in a different light. How about this? If it's inconvenient to give the answer to the Hill of Bones, then I hope that Mr. Luo can help me solve another problem for the sake of incense and incense. A technical problem. "
"A technical problem?"
Luo Nan casually repeated. He adjusted the tip of his pen once more, drawing shadows in the work area. However, he was still unable to draw out the details a step further. He was always lacking by just a hair and a half. This made him a bit anxious, but he also had the impulse and yearning of wanting to obtain something that he couldn't obtain.
"What are you lacking …. Well, I'm asking, which part of your skills are lacking?"
Yin Le, who was so tense that she was about to collapse, suddenly had her eyes light up when these words were spoken. Her mind suddenly relaxed. She was now full of admiration for her boss's methods.
"I've come around …. I'm really slow on the uptake!" The moment a person relaxed, their thoughts would come alive. Yin Le finally realized the meaning behind Madame Halder's words and actions.
From the analysis of the personality mask, Madame Halder had promptly lowered her posture and responded honestly. From beginning to end, she had made an issue out of Luo Nan's weakest social method. In the end, there was only one goal. It was to induce Luo Nan's powerful mask to retreat. And the weak mask could not appear when communicating with the inner world. So naturally, the Ideal Mask would occupy the dominant position.
As long as Luo Nan began to speak reason, the opportunity to cater to Madame Halder's interest would come …. This was because the essence of the Ideal Mask was an intense emotional need for blood kin. In the current world, there was probably no one who could truly satisfy Luo Nan's desires. But she had to settle for the next best thing. She had to approach theoretical research, especially the research angle of Formatting Theory. It was extremely likely that she could trigger Luo Nan's compensatory mentality and obtain effective positive feedback.
Making contact with Luo Nan right now should be the easiest opportunity to obtain a favorable impression from him. The most ideal method was obviously to cater to Luo Nan's thoughts and train of thought, to fully communicate with him, to give him enough respect and understanding. It would be best if she could provide him with inspiration and enlightenment.
She clearly knew that there was such an opportunity and had made the corresponding contingency plans. But in the previous dangerous situation, all contingency plans were meaningless. Instead, Madame Halder remained calm in the face of danger. She gave a near-perfect demonstration.
The most difficult period was over!
Yin Le couldn't wait to think this way. Then she heard Madame Halder speak in a clear and smooth tone. "Mr. Luo, I've said it before. The secret techniques of the Bloodsoul Temple that have been passed down in our family are lacking. I wonder if Mr. Luo has the free time to help my order fix this flaw? "
Huh?
