Nobody told me this wasn't a game.

"……Yes."

"I don't know either, that's what the higher-ups said. Who's in charge here now?"

The deepest part of the solitary confinement cell.

He said, "I'll go see that Deputy Director Niu first! I don't know if he can process my paperwork."

After arranging everything, Lu Li walked alone towards the confinement room.

The captain quickly saluted: "Commander, is there a mission?"

He has already submitted his resignation, but the official announcement of his departure has not yet been issued, so he can still exercise the powers of the group leader.

Feng Gu was scolded harshly, but he felt no anger, only fear and despair.

The way she looked at Lao Man was as if she were looking at a pervert.

"Stop them anyway!"

"This...it should be Deputy Director Niu in charge! I'm not sure either. You know, the former director was that 'Zuo Chang's' man, but she defected."

The deputy director is nominally in charge of the overall situation, but he has no idea what he should do and can only sit in his office like a puppet, without moving.

To kill someone?

The captain's expression turned serious: "My team will be fully assembled in three minutes!"

The situation was urgent, and Zuo Chang left before finding Captain Li. This matter still needed to be taken care of by Jiumo Lie.

Brother Man wiped his hand and continued, "Furthermore, no matter how much a dead person resembles a living person, they are still not a living person. In the long run, they will always reveal their flaws... Black Tiger found out about a month ago. He couldn't accept it, so on the one hand, he kept his distance from Yuanshan Qing, and on the other hand, he exchanged a magic material from the reward pool to stop his losses... I knew everything a long time ago, but I still chose to remain silent. Vice President Feng, no matter what others think of you, I am grateful to you in my heart—if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have known that girls smell so good and their bodies are so soft."

He went to the room of the first squad leader, knocked on the door, and said, "First squad leader, arm your men."

Feng Gu was taken aback: "What?"

Wow!

The old man splashed a bottle of holy water on Kurenai's face, and Kurenai trembled all over, and the stench of corpses immediately filled the air.

The team leader answered on his behalf: "We have a mission."

After a smooth journey to the Inspectorate, Lu Li finally encountered his first interrogation.

Lu Li passed another test.

"Isn't this Commander Lu?"

"...In reality, there would never be a stunning beauty like Kurenai Yuhi who would be so obedient and fond of me."

With the black needle piercing his body and his magic power restricted, and being imprisoned in a jail, how can he escape?

There's no way out!

"Da. Da."

Just when all hope seemed lost, crisp footsteps echoed in the corridor outside the detention room.

Feng Gu raised his head, realizing that someone had arrived.

Chapter 148 Defeat

A small stool was placed in front of the solitary confinement cell where Feng Gu was detained.

An elderly man dressed in a black divine robe sat on a small stool, holding a beautifully bound thick book.

The book looked like a Bible, but it was actually a pornographic book called "The Inferior Hero".

The old man heard footsteps and turned around: "Isn't this... Leader Lu Li of the Chief Adventurer Group? What brings you here?"

Lu Li's gaze was sharp as lightning: "By order of the Lord of Arclight City, interrogate the prisoners who have just been detained."

"That necromancer?"

"Yes."

The old man slowly stood up, the book in his hand still open.

He remained expressionless as he looked at Lu Li and said, "Commander Lu, you have too many flaws. First, interrogating prisoners has nothing to do with your Chief Adventurer Group; second, even if it were true, you shouldn't have come alone; finally... you should control your emotions. The murderous intent in your eyes is too intense, it's burning me."

Lu Li did not say anything more.

He realized something else and quickly turned his head to look at the aisle beside him—

He looked down and noticed that the color of the sand where the old man was standing was different from the rest of the area.

This is impossible!

The old man in black robes could easily lock onto one of them and bring him into the subspace for a duel, thus avoiding being surrounded.

"Ding!"

With a single palm strike, mountains descended upon him. How could Lu Li, a mere seventh-realm cultivator, possibly withstand such an attack?

The force penetrated through, leaving Commander Lu Li unharmed on the surface, but his internal organs were shredded to pieces!

This top expert of level 96511 couldn't even withstand an old gatekeeper from the Divine Sound Society; he was defeated in a single exchange—

Therefore, with a calm expression, he drew his sword directly!

The old man remained calm: "Commander Lu, you want to fight me? Are you sure?"

So quiet.

Do not……

The surrounding environment distorted and deformed, and the dark corridor in front of the solitary confinement room reappeared before his eyes, with Lu Li's corpse lying at his feet.

Could it be that Commander Lu Li used himself as bait, sacrificing himself to buy his comrades a chance to be rescued?

Whether it was due to his carefree attitude or his fearlessness, Lu Li managed to remain calm even in such a desperate situation.

That person's cultivation level surpassed the community's level limit; he was not at the seventh realm, but above the seventh realm!

Eyes can lie.

The old man didn't care about the corpse. He plopped down on a stool and was about to continue reading the little yellow book in his hand when he suddenly noticed something was wrong.

The old man in black robes looked kindly at the silent Lu Li, as if looking at an ignorant child: "You seem unwilling to accept reality. Child, you should believe your eyes, no matter how bizarre they may seem."

Secondly, generally speaking, users of domain skills can enjoy a huge boost to their combat power within their own domain. In the current desert environment, if you master a "Child of the Sands", all your attributes will be increased by 30%!

Does this old man opposite me have any such bonuses?

It certainly exists.

"You've realized it? That's right, I am indeed at the twelfth realm now. My 'Sweeping Sandstorm' is the most outstanding domain skill. It is attached to a certain four-digit community. Once you and I are trapped in it, we will leave 96511 and come to the four-digit community! The level cap of the four-digit community is the twelfth realm!"

It's not an illusion.

His old eyes widened, and he abruptly stood up, peering through the observation window of the iron gate behind him to see what was happening inside:

impossible.

Arclight was so vigilant that it even had a guard stationed in front of the solitary confinement room.

Lu Li understood and said, "What strongest domain technique? It sounds better than it is! You're just using that pile of golden sand to deceive the goddess, making her think you're standing on 'four-digit' land... Once you leave the golden sand, you can only exert the strength of the seventh realm; if I were standing on that pile of golden sand, my upper limit would be the twelfth realm!"

The body of Commander Lu Li, which was lying there, is also gone!

"The Soul Society... Taking advantage of my entry into the realm, that Lady Kazutsu used her skill to send herself into the Soul Society to hide?"

He raised his hand and slapped Lu Li's body!

Just as Lu Li predicted, the old man standing on the "Golden Sands" was able to unleash the upper limit of the Twelfth Realm.

One of them is that you no longer have to worry about being ganged up on.

Probably!

Lu Li looked up at the black-robed old man still standing not far away and realized that this was not an illusion.

"pity."

Lu Li managed to deceive the officers and cultivators above, not because of his silver tongue and quick wit, but mainly because the Inspectorate and the Divine Sound Society had chaotic organizational structures, unclear powers, and poor communication.

Lu Li scoffed: "Whether Feng Gu is the mastermind behind the 'sacrifice ritual' or not, you and I both know perfectly well. You are blind and heartless, but I, Lu, still retain some conscience! I'm taking Feng Gu away, old man... I advise you to pull back from the brink and not aid and abet evil!"

The old man in black robes sighed slightly and withdrew his domain technique.

The old man shook his head: "Commander Lu, you will... die for goodness."

This should be the only possibility.

"Illusion?"

A high-level skill that brings the target into the subspace and forces them into a one-on-one male battle!

Domain-specific techniques are extremely difficult to master, but once mastered, they can create immense advantages for oneself.

With unparalleled momentum, this sword strike was almost a death sentence, yet the old man caught it with just two fingers.

Beat them to death!

The important thing is to make a judgment.

From the moment Lu Li first saw the old man, he knew this trial would be difficult.

The sword roared with magical power as Lu Li slashed down, aiming straight for the old man's nape.

Qian Wuyi was the strongest lord in 96511 before, and Lu Li, as his "chief commander", could not be said to be the strongest person in 96511, but he was at least in the top ten!

How could his all-out attack be so easily blocked?

unless……

"How can it be……"

Moreover, he may not be the "Child of the Sandstorm," but rather the "Lord of the Sandstorm" whose combat power is doubled!

Lu Li understood her situation.

The next instant, space began to distort, and the walls of the solitary confinement cell and the dark, cold corridor began to swell and meander inexplicably, like a surging tide!

Lu Li frowned, suddenly realizing that he was standing on yellow sand under the blazing sun, in a desert!

This is……
