Under the service of the two beautiful women, Luo Nan quickly took care of his appearance. He wore a bathrobe and sat in a wheelchair. Yin Le pushed him out of the bathroom. Actually, the wheelchair was electric, but Yin Le was willing to push him, so Luo Nan let her.
Yin Le seized the time to give a more detailed report after arriving in a domain that was more suitable for her. "The yacht will arrive at the pier of Claw Island in approximately seven minutes. Mister, do you want to go directly to the island? "
"Yes."
"Then let us help you change your clothes, mister."
"Oh, no need. In any case, we probably won't be able to stay. Just go directly."
"...... Yes." Yin Le was used to these kinds of instructions. Plus, she felt that the temperature of Ban City in May was acceptable, so she didn't say anything more.
As for Snake Tongue, she was even more silent than before. The kimono on her body was half wet and a bit messy, but she didn't cut a sorry figure. At least she didn't look that way on the surface. She followed the style of a traditional Ban City woman. She walked forward with small steps, reserved and humble.
Who could know that there was a ball of poisonous fire rolling in her heart, but it was sealed in the ice of reason, burning in despair?
Even though Luo Nan was the one who set the question, he was unable to detect any clues from Snake Tongue's tranquil expression just by looking at her from the outside. In an extremely short amount of time, Snake Tongue had already grasped the basics of losing control of her emotions. She suppressed them so that they wouldn't interfere with her reason. At the same time, she continued to provide a stimulating power.
Of course, as Snake Tongue completed all of this, the altar spiderweb constructed an even more complex and profound control structure in her mind. Not only did Luo Nan's control over her not weaken, it actually increased.
This can be considered my work, right? Truly amazing!
Luo Nan didn't know if he was praising Snake Tongue or praising himself. He tilted his head to size up Snake Tongue, but in the end, he adhered to his previous plan. He didn't stimulate her further.
The three entered the elevator and went to the upper deck.
Yin Le received a phone call in the elevator. It came from the cockpit of the yacht. She was a bit surprised and hung up after a few words. She leaned over and reported to Luo Nan, "Mister, there are surveillance planes operating in the airspace surrounding Claw Island. They belong to the coastal defense forces of Ban City. They just asked for the identification number of our yacht. It seems that they are carrying out a search mission. They also informed us that if necessary, they will board the ship for inspection. Please cooperate. "
"Coastal defense?"
Luo Nan scanned the area with his telepathic thoughts, and he more or less understood the surrounding environment. It was already late at night in Ban City. There were many clouds and stars, and the surface of the lake was dark and gloomy. It was relatively quiet.
Within a radius of ten kilometers, apart from the low hum of the yacht's motor, there were only two unnatural noises — a cruising aircraft 700 meters above the side, and a small submarine 50 meters below the surface of the lake, seven kilometers away in a straight line.
If one were to expand the scope a bit, there would be approximately … a hundred or so people in the Northern Mountain Lake Region. They were all military personnel armed with real guns and ammunition. They were equipped with two units of Deep Blue Walkers, and they were seething with murderous intent.
"It has nothing to do with us."
Luo Nan didn't discover any experts among the military personnel. He didn't discover any targeted hostility. Finding trouble with him with this kind of equipment was simply a joke. It would be too exaggerated to say that this was a probe.
Yin Le thought so too. "Maybe they're searching for fugitives. The northwest of Beishan Lake was also considered a wilderness area. There were mountains everywhere, and the terrain and people were equally complicated … In this case, it was normal for the military to intervene without the Metropolitan Police Department's permission. They can indeed board the ship for inspection. It's an official act, so it's hard for us to refuse.
"But it's nothing. I personally entered the country normally. Snake Tongue's identity can withstand inspection. The yacht's procedures are complete. We signed a temporary lease agreement with the Explorers Society of Ban City over at Claw Island. As for you, sir …. Even if you were to stand in front of them, they might not be able to discover you. "
What was up with Yin Le's confidence? Was she trying to flatter him?
Luo Nan was amused by her. Yin Le took the opportunity to suggest, "Sir, we can block most reconnaissance methods on the ship. But if we board the island now, we will be exposed to the enemy's surveillance …. Shouldn't we wait a bit? "
"Wait?"
Luo Nan frowned. He wasn't willing to disrupt his plans, but then again, the entire day of competing with the Abyss World seemed to be outside of his plans.
"Your Excellency can also help the military speed up their progress."
Snake Tongue spoke unhurriedly. She lowered her eyes and brows when Luo Nan shifted his gaze over. It seemed that the words just now had nothing to do with her.
Snake Tongue's current mental state was very subtle. It seemed that she had broken through something, but she was obediently restrained. Luo Nan's interest in this aspect far exceeded that of the military's search and capture operation …. Oh, Snake Tongue's suggestion was indeed clever.
If it really was an extremely vicious criminal, Luo Nan didn't mind helping the military out. Everyone would disperse sooner, and their hearts would be clean.
Luo Nan's mind had already circled North Mountain Lake eighty to a hundred times as he thought this ….
However, the latest news traveled a bit faster than his thoughts. Yin Le received the latest news. It was hard for her to conceal her bewilderment.
"Sir, the military has informed us that they are no longer boarding the ship for inspection."
"Huh?"
"It seems that the mission has ended. They've already withdrawn."
Luo Nan asked curiously, "Did they catch the criminal?"
"This …."
Luo Nan's curiosity was piqued during the time Yin Le was stuck. His mental senses had already covered the entirety of Ban City, and he had increased his resolution by a large margin. His perceptual strength was like an enormous fishing net being cast down at this moment. It was spread out like a cloud of smoke, and when it was drawn in, it grabbed an ocean's worth of information. The information covered multiple dimensions of the mental and material planes.
The amount of information he received in an instant was enormous. But compared to the trillions of fragments in the Mist Labyrinth, the flow of information originating from the real world and the rules of society was simply smooth and orderly.
He swallowed it in a single gulp, and it was digested in the blink of an eye.
Cough, this was an exaggerated description.
Luo Nan wasn't stupid enough to search and analyze item by item. He just grabbed a high-resolution comparison photo of the beginning of the term and the end of the term.
After a slight comparison, there was a clear difference between Chaos and Order.
Ten seconds ago, a fire, two to three violent crimes, five car accidents, over a hundred quarrels, nearly a thousand noises, and several tens of thousands of drunkards had occurred in the surroundings of Ban City. There were no abnormalities in all of this.
The residual energy that caused injuries and death was scattered all over the coast. There was a location on the northern shore of North Mountain Lake, and a dozen locations deep in the mountains. Among them, there were three locations that involved military weaponry. There were two locations on the coast, and there was one on the northern shore ….
This was probably the result of the military's efforts.
Luo Nan didn't possess the ability to rewind time, but he was able to perform positioning and analysis from the vibrations of the particles in the atmosphere and the eruption of emotions in the sea of consciousness.
The amount of information involved in such a method was quite astonishing. But Luo Nan wanted to say that any information that could be organized and explained wasn't a problem at all!
Luo Nan's interest was piqued, and he thoroughly understood the situation.
Yin Le wasn't idle either. She made a few phone calls and obtained an answer. She hesitated for a moment before moving closer to Luo Nan. "Mister, I've obtained information from another channel. The military's operation is public. It's said that they were hunting down an important figure of an illegal order. The operation has already ended."
"There's an illegal order in Ban City?" Luo Nan couldn't help but chuckle twice. He spoke of the results of his observations in passing. "Two are dead, and one is captured."
"......"
Yin Le did her best to maintain a matter-of-fact attitude. She didn't want to be so useless. But after digging out the follow-up information, she really didn't feel good in her heart.
"According to the military's report, that illegal order …. is the Soul Order."
"Soul Order?"
Luo Nan felt that the name sounded familiar, but he didn't react in time. It wasn't until he sensed Yin Le's awkward mood that he suddenly realized something.
"The Soul Order! The one that killed Black Wolf!"
"...... Yes."
Yin Le couldn't say anything more. This was because she was one of the cold spectators when Black Wolf was killed.
Luo Nan never had any formal contact with the Soul Order, but they had bad intentions towards him. Last year, not long after Luo Nan rose to prominence due to the Cage Theory, this order secretly executed a scheme. They used the doctrine of the Immortal Soul to send out a character called Fantasy Fire to lure and kill Black Wolf, a member of the Xia City branch's operations team. Fantasy Fire used a bizarre possession technique to occupy Black Wolf's body. They attempted to break into Luo Nan's circle of friends and conspire against him.
Their methods were extremely covert. The Xia City branch, including Luo Nan, were all kept in the dark.
However, perhaps there was a need for cooperation, but Fantasy Fire's luring and possession operation against Black Wolf turned into a business demonstration. The middleman was the LCRF's Xia City manager, Sun Jiayi. The client was the Bloodflame Order.
Yin Le was the one present at the time.
It wasn't a big deal at first, but everyone present at the time, including Yin Le herself, never expected that she, Mrs. Halder, and even the entire Bloodflame Order would completely lean towards Luo Nan in a few short days.
In this way, the secret became a joke.
The incident came inexplicably and left abruptly.
Fantasy Fire, who had taken over Black Wolf's body, was personally captured by Ouyang Chen. However, Fantasy Fire's soul was in a special state. His soul was completely extinguished the moment he was stimulated intensely. He didn't leave any clues behind.
Sun Jiayi was controlled by the Xia City branch. She confessed to this matter without reservation, but she didn't reveal any valuable information to the Soul Order. She was only a middleman, and her identity was special. The LCRF and Headquarters exerted quite a bit of pressure on her. She was currently under surveillance, and there was no further news for the time being.
The Soul Order's conspiracy came to a screeching halt in Xia City. The Xia City branch informed the various powers of the inner world of the Soul Order's information and methods.
It would have been better if they hadn't informed the Soul Order. Once the news got out, all sides made a summary and analysis, and the situation suddenly escalated.
It turned out that Luo Nan wasn't the only target of the Soul Order. Many powerful and famous ability users of the inner world had become their targets. Their methods were very similar. They all attacked the outside first, and then they gradually infiltrated. In this way, there were nearly a hundred innocent victims, not to mention the main target.
Their goals were vague. Their motives were unclear. They attacked fiercely right from the start. This sort of order was an illegal organization. Overnight, this Pheasant Order, which didn't have much of a reputation, became the target of everyone's curses. Especially at the beginning of the year, they were simply the public enemy of the world. Regardless of whether it was the inner world or the secular world, news about them repeatedly appeared in the newspapers.
Luo Nan paid attention to them for a few days at first, but later, he threw himself wholeheartedly into the study and research of configuration. He pondered over how to kill Gong Qi with a single thought, and he soon became desensitized. He was quite surprised when he heard the news today.
"They haven't been exterminated yet?"
"The military has taken over handling it. I think that there are very few ability users left. Perhaps they're the remnants."
"Forget it. I don't care about them."
Luo Nan had no interest in delving into the matters that had already been determined. The yacht was already docked at Claw Island's pier. He had more pressing matters to attend to.
