Fang Ning stood in front of the System Prison and looked through the small glass window for a while before realizing that the fog monster was the elite Nightmare Demon that was captured by Sir System. It was curled up in a corner, no longer as imposing as it was before.
Fang Ning asked, "You said you can give us immortality and eternal youth, so tell me, what method do you have?"
The Nightmare Demon was overjoyed when it heard that. It thought, 'Mortals will always be mortals! They will never be able to escape the temptation of those words. '
The Nightmare Demon began to recite a series of cultivation steps and a bunch of messy incantations.
System Notification: [The elite Nightmare Demon taught the System the demonic cultivation method Nightmare Life Absorption. The System consumed experience points to analyze this cultivation method. Every time it creates nightmares to kill ten people, it will obtain a small amount of their life energy. The beginner level will grant one day of life. After the cultivation begins, the Host's personality will gradually deteriorate and eventually become the Nightmare Demon's new host. This cultivation method severely conflicts with the System's existing rules, the System refuses to learn it.]
Fang Ning felt a chill run down his spine. The name of the devil was not for nothing. Even a method that came out of nowhere was so vicious that it completely crossed his bottom line.
The two cultivation methods he obtained before did not have so many notifications. It only said that there was no conflict, and the System chose not to learn it.
This time, he had to analyze it first and explain the result of cultivating for nothing. Even Sir System had to be on guard. This cultivation method was really well hidden!
What a cunning devil. No wonder it was so generous to say it first. As long as he was tempted and crossed his bottom line, he would have fallen for it.
He immediately understood that these devils could not be trusted at all. They would never tell you the truth, and every word they said was a trap.
Compared to the similarly inhuman but honest System Boy, at least Sir System would never lie to him on purpose. At most, it would not say anything, or it would say something wrong …
Fang Ning shook his head and said, "Haha, you have to kill so many people to gain a little lifespan. No wonder you're so black. Just accept your death sentence and reincarnate as a rock."
Fang Ning had completely understood the nature of the devil. In their eyes, humans were just materials, just like the Greater Rat Demons. They would never have the same standpoint. No wonder it was dark red with black on the System Map. It was marked correctly.
The Nightmare Demon was puzzled. What did he mean by 'black'? Did he mean that he had a black heart and needed to kill people to steal their lifespan? But many humans also did the same thing. Wasn't it natural to sacrifice the lives of ordinary people for the sake of longevity? Why did it become an impossible thing for this seemingly lazy jailer?
Relying on this method, it had corrupted many people as its vessels, until it finally hit a wall in front of the psionic ability user called Zheng Dao. The other party had pretended to be a fallen soul. After it had taken possession of the body, it had been able to explain things in simple terms. It was very rare for it to be able to trigger its murderous intentions. It rarely had the chance to go out and harm people.
That was why it was so desperate this time. When it had the chance, it brought more than 30 people in at once. In the end, it hit an iron plate and it was its turn to be locked up.
It also didn't think that this little jailer would be able to see through the hidden side effects of its cultivation method. That could only be discovered at the end of the cultivation.
At first glance, it was obvious that this jailer was just a spiritual body with a little bit of cultivation experience. It was impossible for him to see through the jailer's disguise since he was placed here to watch over the prison cell. Could it be that the jailer was really a kind-hearted person?
It laughed coldly again, "Haha, why do you have to be so inflexible? You'll regret it when you're old. "
Fang Ning didn't want to talk nonsense with it at all. The jailer didn't even know that he had seen through its tricks. It was better for him to just rely on Sir System to cultivate longevity. This guy couldn't be trusted at all.
He secretly called Sir System.
Fang Ning said, "Can you mute that prison cell?"
The System replied, "Okay."
It seemed that Sir System was also very wary of this evil demon who was full of tricks. At that moment, the entire prison cell was completely silent.
Alright, he could finally play in peace for a while. Fang Ning went back to his "Horse Riding and Blade". There was still half a year to go, so he had to strike a balance between work and rest. Longevity and whatnot, it was more reliable to leave it to Sir System …
At the same time, the people outside woke up from the raging wind. One by one, they regained their composure and looked at each other.
Someone spoke after a long time, "Was that demon swallowed by the dragon?"
"Based on the final situation, it should be."
"Is the demon not dead? Otherwise, why are we still here? "
Fang Ning overheard their conversation while he was playing and remembered, 'Most of these people are normal people. Although it would only be half a day outside, they would really age for half a year, which is different from me. There's nothing here, so it's better to let them out and not waste their lives. '
Fang Ning said, "Turn on the sound in the prison cell again."
The System said, "Why, are you going back on your word? You still want to learn the Way of Longevity from it? That won't do. "
Fang Ning said, "I'll only learn it if there's a hole in my brain. Let the demon out, I believe you have a way to do it."
The System said, "If they leave, we won't. Are you sure you can survive half a year here alone?"
Fang Ning said, "As long as you can let me play a few hours of standalone games every day. Besides, I've already finished many novels, so I can pass the time. I don't want to trouble others to suffer with me. "
Not only did the System not listen to Fang Ning's words, but it also seemed to be deep in thought. "Oh, no wonder I heard slashing sounds when I was using your body to cultivate. I was wondering how you could still play when there's no internet. So you're playing a standalone game. Now that you mention it, it looks like I'll have to cut off the electricity so you can focus. "
Fang Ning didn't expect his kindness to remind the System to pressure him again. He was speechless, "You want me to cultivate for half a year without internet or electricity? That's impossible."
The two of them got into an argument, and in the end, Fang Ning could only give in and said, "I can accept cutting off the electricity when I'm cultivating, but you can't control me after work. That way, you can let those people go, right? "
The System said, "I'll let them go, but don't regret it."
Fang Ning said, "Regret what? But will the demon listen to you? It knows it's going to die, so will it still do it? "
The System said, "If it doesn't do it, I'll let it know that there are different types of death sentences, and one of them is called Soul Annihilation."
…
Meanwhile, in the Sky Gardens, Hai Lan did not change locations after interrogating Zheng Dao. Instead, she immediately reported to one of the higher-ups of the Truth Department.
Hai Lan said, "Yes, out of the 30 members, 29 are missing. There's also a receptionist and a new instructor, Xu Weihua."
One of the higher-ups asked, "What? How long have they been missing? "
Hai Lan said, "Less than 10 minutes."
One of the higher-ups said, "You guys reacted very quickly. We'll call for an emergency meeting to discuss a solution."
Hai Lan said, "There's no need to discuss a solution … Let's think about how to deal with the aftermath first."
One of the higher-ups asked, "What's going on?"
Hai Lan said, "Through interrogating the demon's vessel, we received a piece of uncertain information. Those people were pulled into an empty, special space by a demon. The flow of time there is different from this world. Ten minutes is equivalent to at least a month in that space. I believe most of them have already starved to death. "
One of the higher-ups said, "Elder Xu's son is one of them. No, we have to inform him immediately."
Hai Lan said, "Please be more tactful … The information is not confirmed yet. Perhaps the vessel was also bewitched by the demon and misjudged the flow of time between the two places."
Zheng Dao listened to Hai Lan's analysis and thought about it carefully. He couldn't help but look at this cold and aloof woman in a different light. That might really be the case. The demon could have purposely made him feel like he was misjudging the flow of time so that it could display its strangeness and power. It wanted to intimidate him and make him afraid so that he would fall into its control. Its cunning nature was everywhere.
Hai Lan's expression was solemn. More than 30 people had died in an academy under the Truth Department. Although it wasn't the headquarters, it was still a major incident.
It seemed like she had to prepare to write the report and go home.
She was already mentally prepared for this, but not long after, someone reported to her through the walkie-talkie.
Hai Lan said, "Speak."
One of the team members said, "Through the surveillance, everyone has been confirmed to have returned. None of them are missing."
Hai Lan was overjoyed. It seemed like she didn't have to write the report for now. "Hurry up and gather them together. We'll do a physical examination first, then we'll question them individually."
Zheng Dao listened from the side with a confused expression. He could feel that the demon in his body wasn't dead yet. What was going on? Why would it be so kind as to let these people out?
…
Elder Zhao returned to his room and was about to check on Fang Ning when he heard a knock on the door.
When he opened the door, it was Fatso Liu.
President Zhao said, "Alright, I wanted to check on you, but you had the same idea. Come, let's go check on Xiao Fang."
Fatso Liu was overjoyed, "Great, I'm here to call you and Xiao Fang. Let's find a place to eat. These two days, we've been eating instant noodles and ham sausages. Even if there were some delicious food, they would be given to the weaker ones. We didn't get a single one. I don't mind the taste, but I haven't had a full meal. "
President Zhao was speechless, "It's good enough that you have something to eat! You pig, I should let you starve for two days so you can lose some weight. "
