Chapter 398 The Manager's Conflict with Two People
The sudden appearance of the manager caused a moment of suffocation in the room.
A meaningful glint flashed across Lin Yi's eyes, but his hands continued to move, constantly striking the monster.
The muffled thuds continued, as if responding to the manager's call, carrying a somewhat indescribable emotion.
"Hey, isn't this the manager?"
boom!
Before Lin Yi could speak, Grandma Eli punched the monster in front of her away and spoke first.
Lin Yi raised an eyebrow. "Old lady, you're something else. You're the kind of person who really gets things done."
"Ms. Lola, it's been a long time." The manager shifted his gaze from Lin Yi, met Grandma Eli's gaze with a smile, and greeted her with a smile, showing no annoyance at being interrupted.
Lin Yi took note of this attitude. It seemed that Grandma Eli, also known as Lola, really had something going for her. She dared to challenge the manager in this tone, and the manager could still laugh.
Of course, it's also possible that they've mastered the art of superficiality.
"Long time no see? It's only been a few years since I started playing crickets. For us old folks, that's just a blink of an eye." Grandma Eli chuckled, but there was no real smile in her eyes.
Luger, who was standing to the side, shuddered.
He knew exactly how much Lola hated the word "old." The fact that she brought it up now made it clear she had no good intentions whatsoever.
"Hehe, you're right, it's just a few years."
"What, instead of dealing with the BOSS deep inside, the managers are coming out to compete with us at this level for monsters?" Lola curled her lip and changed the subject.
Her gaze swept over the manager's back, and she added with a hint of sarcasm, "Bringing so many guards along, do you think we'd harm you?"
The manager didn't cause a scene. He just smiled and waved his hand, then ordered without turning his head, "You all go back inside and await further orders."
The group of guards behind him did not respond, but their figures had already disappeared one after another.
The manager floated down a little more, bringing himself to the same height as Lola.
"Ms. Laura's temper remains unchanged after all these years."
"I wonder what you've achieved in the past few years? Could you share some insights?"
Lola holds a high position among the Kryptonians, and given her ranking in combat strength, she naturally attracts a lot of attention.
Many people assumed that Lola had gone to find a way to ascend to a higher dimension during the two or three years she disappeared.
Only the managers know the real truth.
Yes, Luger only knew that Laura left because of her granddaughter's out-of-control problem.
However, Lola's true purpose was not limited to that. She was indeed looking for a way to ascend to a higher dimension, but not aimlessly as some people thought.
To be more precise, she was also making some arrangements. The administrators had quite a few memories of Lola; this old lady was one of the people who made important "contributions" in the last future.
Thinking of this, the manager's fingers twitched unconsciously, and his desire to eliminate the old lady right now became even stronger.
But no, it's not the right time yet. Lin Yi hasn't opened the door to the ninth floor, that box.
And if a fight really breaks out...
The manager glanced at the fighting force present out of the corner of his eye.
Some Kryptonite and other organization warriors don't need to be cared about; the only ones who need to be cared about are Luger, Lola, and Lin Yi.
If she goes all out, the chances of a fatal blow are considerable, but it cannot be ruled out that Lola may have backup plans.
The problem is that while Luger's combat strength is certain, the administrators are unsure of Lola and Lin Yi's current stage.
Judging from Lola before the last major reset, she was clearly outside the game, and in the end, her true fighting strength was never fully understood.
And Lin Yi now...
The sounds of those blows hitting the monster seemed to him like some kind of warning.
Lin Yi already knew the answer; he had learned some new things, but he didn't know if he had fully recovered his memories.
This is one of the reasons why the manager suddenly appeared before the agreed time.
"What gains?" Upon hearing this, Lola frowned, seemingly thinking hard for a while before making a sudden realization.
"You know what, there really is."
"Oh?" the manager asked with interest. "What is it?"
Lola scanned the manager up and down twice.
"The lesson is this: when you get old, just stay home and enjoy your retirement. Don't try to do anything fancy or complicated, or the fruit won't taste good."
The manager remained outwardly calm, but inwardly cursed the old man.
There's a hidden meaning in his words; he's indirectly criticizing himself.
He's somewhat cultured, but not much. He doesn't even know what "fruit doesn't taste good" means. Does he really think he's never studied anything?
Shaking his head, the manager sighed, "That's disappointing. I thought Ms. Lola had come into contact with something beyond our dimensional level."
"Or perhaps, they've discovered some... methods for using visceral fragments?"
As he spoke, the manager glanced at Lin Yi, intentionally or unintentionally.
Laura immediately noticed this deliberate behavior, and some of her guesses and the information she had found were indirectly confirmed.
That old bastard, he's definitely up to no good.
Eli, watching her grandmother's conversation with the manager, clicked her tongue in amazement. How come she had never noticed before that her grandmother was so assertive?
"Lin, it seems you've regained some of your memories?" The administrator ignored Lola and turned his attention back to Lin Yi.
Lin Yi had been paying attention to the conversation between the two. When he heard the manager change the subject, he paused while punching the monster, then suddenly increased the force and threw another punch.
boom.
The monster was pushed backward by the impact like a mountain, and Lin Yi took the opportunity to withdraw his fist and straighten his body.
He turned to the manager with a blank expression, then smiled.
"Yes, I've regained some memories and abilities."
"Oh?" The manager raised an eyebrow, seemingly pleased, and said with a smile, "That's truly delightful."
"Does it remind you of anything more about our past, or rather... that promise?"
Lin Yi sneered inwardly. He deliberately didn't mention whether he had regained all his memories, and look, this guy is testing him.
On the surface, Lin Yi pondered for a long time with a troubled expression, then scratched his head: "Agreement? I don't know what kind of agreement you're talking about. I don't seem to remember anything like that."
"Perhaps... I haven't fully recovered yet."
"But I'm really curious, what kind of agreement could we have made? Can you tell me?"
The manager didn't speak, but instead quietly observed Lin Yi for a few seconds, seemingly analyzing the truthfulness of Lin Yi's words.
He quickly smiled again: "Since you can't remember, it seems the time isn't right yet."
"As for what the agreement is, I can't tell you, that would be pointless."
Seeing that Lin Yi was about to say something, the manager waved his hand and said, "This is also 'your' request. I'm not allowed to tell you, so don't ask. I won't tell you."
