That wasn't the only thing that surprised Jia Ying.
It was one thing for Luke to wander around in the afterlife, but he also liked to hit on people.
It was one thing for him to hit on women, but he also liked to hit on women.
What was even worse was that she had ordered everyone to be wary of Luke.
In the end, as Luke chatted with those women, they started to talk too much.
These conversations were similar to a census, such as how many residents there were in the afterlife, how many had awakened superpowers, and what superpowers they had.
If Luke really got to the bottom of these things, apart from the small portion of secrets in Jia Ying's hands, Luke would have all the main intelligence.
Jia Ying had actually done a good job of keeping the afterlife a secret. For example, the abilities of the five people Luke had taken down and the method of awakening the inhumans, and so on, the people below didn't know.
But this retreat was so small, after all, and everyone ran into each other all the time. There weren't many things that she could really hide.
Jia Ying had a headache.
Fight? The five strongest experts had been knocked out in an instant.
Luke had given her a second chance, but it would take at least two days for the five of them to recover from their injuries.
Not fight? Luke would find out most of the intelligence, and he would do it right under their noses.
Jia Ying now understood that Luke hadn't said these three days casually. It was just when he had enough information and she couldn't hold back anymore.
If it was any longer, it would be meaningless to fight.
If it was any shorter, Jia Ying wouldn't have enough manpower for a second chance.
After thinking about it, she couldn't have been more depressed. If she had known earlier, she wouldn't have been in such a hurry to drive Calvin away, and wouldn't have attracted Big Dipper.
Although Big Dipper hadn't said anything special to Skye, Jia Ying knew that her daughter's attitude was actually very important.
She believed that if she wasn't Skye's mother, but some other secret agency that had designs on Skye, the five people who had attacked Big Dipper wouldn't have just been lightly injured, but all of them would have been killed.
Team Bat's reputation as the number one killer wasn't just for show.
Jia Ying had a record of the undead, Experimentals, Chitauri, and mercenaries who had died at his hands.
These hundreds of people in the afterlife weren't even enough for him to kill for half a day.
While Jia Ying was having a headache, Luke was also very busy.
The Inhumans had a certain resistance to his mental power and pheromone manipulation, but the Inhumans in the afterlife were divided into awakened and unawakened, and a small number of family members.
With his various abilities, as long as he spent more time, he would be able to obtain a lot of information.
It just so happened that most of the aliens here were female. Although Luke's middle-aged face didn't have Night Devil John's all-female special effect, he looked mature and reliable.
He had also traveled all over the world and had a wealth of experience. Coupled with the database of the AI program, he could come up with a lot of professional content on any topic. It was too easy to fool these women who had lived in seclusion for a long time.
For two days in a row, Luke was as comfortable as a fish in water.
Jia Ying watched from afar a few times, and every time she emitted a strong, uncomfortable spiritual fluctuation, which made him even happier. 'I like to see you being upset but unable to do anything to me.'
Jia Ying had also suspected that Seven Star had some kind of psychic superpower. She had even sent the middle-aged woman with the ability of mental interference to observe.
However, the conclusion he came to was … unsure. He only felt that Big Dipper's words were very skillful. He was always able to unknowingly induce others to leak information.
This didn't prove that he had superpowers; it would be more accurate to say that he was a well-trained agent.
On the third day, Luke was chatting with a young girl in her twenties, making her laugh nonstop, when a middle-aged woman walked over.
This woman had a superpower of mental interference, and a strong one at that.
When faced with her ability, most people would become confused and their movements would become sluggish.
Unfortunately, before she could do anything three days ago, she had been electrocuted by her companion and was the first to pass out.
Clearly, she also had the common problem of "mental mages" — her physical fitness was average.
With a dark face, the middle-aged woman said that Jia Ying was looking for Luke and wanted to talk to him in detail.
As she spoke, she glared at the young girl. You little b * tch, are there no men here? You're so old, yet you're sticking to me!
The girl knew this woman, and knew that she had a high status in the afterlife. She definitely wasn't someone an ordinary person like her, who was waiting to be approved for awakening, could compare to.
The girl's face was a little pale. She hurriedly said goodbye to Luke and ran off.
Luke didn't say anything.
The afterlife was such an organization.
As the saying went, if the upper beam was not straight, the lower beam would be crooked. It could be seen from Jia Ying's way of doing things.
She would even drive out her own man just to "dominate" her daughter, who had a super ability. It wasn't hard to imagine her attitude toward the mutants who hadn't awakened yet.
In fact, it was very difficult to hold an awakening ceremony, and most of the mutants who were found were abandoned.
Only those who proved their loyalty to Jia Ying would be "granted" a chance to awaken.
The girl just now, for example, hadn't been willing to give up her family in normal society for the sake of awakening, so she hadn't been approved for two years.
She was now ready to give up and return to society after a while to live an ordinary life.
Recalling the intelligence he had gathered here in the last few days, Luke sneered. "Are we there yet? My time is very valuable. "
The middle-aged woman who led the way stopped and turned around. "What?"
Luke chuckled inwardly. "It means you should walk faster."
The middle-aged woman's expression changed. She pointed at a house not far away and quickened her steps. "It's in the conference hall up ahead. We'll be there soon."
Luke put his hands in his pockets and sped up, as if he couldn't be bothered to talk to her.
Twenty meters away from the so-called conference hall, Luke and the middle-aged woman entered a small garden.
The middle-aged woman suddenly turned around and stared at Luke with wide eyes. "Wait, who's behind you?"
The moment she said that, a powerful mental wave surged out of her head at Luke.
Luke rolled his eyes. Do I need you to tell me whether or not I have someone behind me?
Did she think his Mountain Splitter drone and superpowers were for naught?
As he roasted the woman, he activated Mental Resistance and gave himself a buff.
The middle-aged woman's mental interference instantly turned into a breeze and wasn't worth mentioning.
However, the "competition" that Jia Ying had prepared for two days naturally wasn't just that.
At that moment, the two of them were in a corridor of grapevines in the garden. The grapevines around them suddenly seemed to come to life. Some of them covered the middle-aged woman, while others lunged at Luke.
The green vines turned into an overwhelming sea of green in the blink of an eye, drowning Luke and the middle-aged woman and successfully separating them.
A lot of vines wrapped tightly around Luke's limbs, trying to hold him in place.
A thick bolt of white lightning shot out from the bushes not far away, heading straight for his chest.
