There was no lighting inside the cave, and no light was coming in, but everything was incredibly clear in the gray cat's eyes. Therefore, the signal received by the black bean was also incredibly clear. It was so clear that every detail could be seen, and it even gave people a sense of being there.

Ashou and Heidou turned pale, while the others, though accustomed to bloodshed, still felt their scalps tingle at the sight of so many white rats in a heightened state rushing forward, and at the same time became increasingly wary of Xilin.

Perhaps people don't have a concrete understanding of Xilin's role in Han Duli, but Xilin's abilities are indeed admirable.

Some people, like Gu Xin, might have guessed the methods Xilin used, but others who didn't know much about Xilin couldn't figure out how he got these white rat bio-engineered beasts to deal with the hypnotist. Because Xilin had been guiding Hei Dou and the others in building the safe zone and defense system these past few days, many people assumed Xilin was an expert in that area. However, what they didn't realize was that Xilin was also very skilled in medicine. Perhaps not the most skilled, but compared to the people here, Xilin was already considered a highly technical expert.

"A skilled hypnotist can hypnotize people with every move. Magik's hobby is to turn people directly into his puppets, so his hypnosis is strong and domineering, completely irreversible. If you don't want to be hypnotized into an idiot, you have to be stronger than his willpower, otherwise you won't be able to resist, and the result will be like those two people," Gu Xin said in a low voice.

The hypnotist was named Magik. Gu Xin knew him, although he had never met him before. He had seen information about Magik in some secret files, and Magik was also on some military lists and was classified as a dangerous person.

Seeing the two puppet figures, ordered by the hypnotist Magik, covered in blood and sent to intercept the white rats, chills ran through everyone present. Two of them had encountered Magik before; one had avoided it due to his strong willpower, while the other had escaped with the help of his temporary companion. Therefore, their experience was the most intense.

Inside the cave. The puppet, whose arms were torn apart and broken by the white rats that pounced on it, remained expressionless and continued to follow Magik's orders to block the white rats. It was gradually being devoured. Magik opened the escape hole he had dug earlier and was running outside, but he didn't expect to see two white rat bio-beasts running towards him from not far away outside the cave as soon as he poked his head out.

Magik was desperate. He couldn't concentrate on hypnotizing the rats at this point. He tried, but the results only gave him a splitting headache; after all, such a powerful and irreversible method of hypnosis had side effects. Magik hadn't fully recovered, and the pressure of the situation had thrown him into complete disarray.

Inside the cave, a white rat-like bio-beast charged through the bloodstains of the puppet. Magik pulled out his gun and fired, but the type of gun and bullets were like tickling the activated white rat. Moreover, while Magik was a master hypnotist, his marksmanship was atrocious. He was clearly trying to target the bio-beast's eyes, which glowed red even in the darkness, but the bullets hit the scales on its toes instead. The gray cat, who was broadcasting live from a protruding rock on the cave ceiling, twitched its whiskers.

As Magik fired wildly, he roared, as if in a final outburst of despair. His voice echoed through the cave, making it all the more chilling.

Finally, the white rat's claws reached for Magik. If it were anyone else, the white rat bio-beast would at most bite and eat them, instantly ending their prey's life. However, Magik had the drug that Xilin had planted on him.

The white rats, in their heightened state, approached Magik but didn't treat him like a puppet. Instead, they sniffed around him, scratching at his body with their claws, leaving deep, bone-revealing gashes with each strike. However, these scratches weren't fatal. But a barrage of claws would be a different story.

Both the white rat bio-beasts inside and outside the cave surrounded Magik, scratching at him with their claws. Magik's screams echoed for a long time. Then they gradually faded until only the sound of the white rats' claws scratching remained.

Hypnotist Magik died from excessive blood loss. This kind of death is cruel because the injured person will clearly feel their blood loss and the passing of life, as well as a deep sense of despair. Magik even wanted to use that domineering hypnotic method on himself at that time, but in the end he was unable to do so.

In truth, Xilin hadn't expected these bio-engineered white rats to treat the hypnotist this way. He had always assumed that at most the rats would follow the scent to the hypnotist and kill him with a claw or a bite; he never anticipated such a bloody method. It was pure torture.

Gu Xin closed his eyes. The famous hypnotist Magik had come to such an end. He wondered what the expressions of the people in the Austrian army would be when they found out, since Magik was someone they had personally classified as a high-risk individual.

Everyone who has seen this impact has the same thought—don't mess with Xilin, no matter who you are.

Perhaps some people had initially come here hoping for a lucky break or just to get by, but after seeing this video, everyone changed their attitude. They weren't fools; they understood that Xilin was using this opportunity to deal with their opponents while simultaneously giving them a warning. They knew that any misbehavior here would likely result in the same fate as the hypnotist, Magik.

  

After Magik was dealt with, the gray cat closed its eyes and cut off the signal. It yawned, then licked its lips. So many mice…

Xilin stood outside the cave, listening to the sounds coming from inside and some white rats that had been thrown out, and sighed inwardly. "So many white rats, Cat Master, can't you even assess the situation?" Xilin signaled the gray cat to retreat immediately and stop playing with these white rats.

After playing with the white mouse in the hole for a while, the gray cat ran away. If the gray cat were to run away with all its might, even the white mouse in its heightened state wouldn't be able to catch it.

Xilin fired three more soft bullets containing drugs into the cave, and after the white rats were all inside, he threw in several time bombs.

After running a long way, Xilin heard the booming sound and the rising mushroom cloud. He breathed a sigh of relief. He had taken care of the hypnotist and some white rats. It was worth the time bomb made with those precious materials.

I glanced at the gray cat licking its paws while perched on a branch. There were bits of thorns from the white rat bio-beast near its mouth.

"Remember to wipe your mouth clean too."

"knew!"

Inside the building in the distance, Guan Feng and the others watched as the signal light marking the white rat's declaration disappeared and the images taken by the satellite array disappeared, praising it repeatedly.

"Guan Feng, you've done a great job teaching him," Christy Lang said.

Guan Feng curled his lip. "Well-trained my ass. I haven't even known that little bastard for very long. How am I supposed to teach him?"

At best, he can be considered a talent scout with a keen eye for identifying geniuses.

"Should we put those other things over there?" someone asked from the side.

Christy Lang thought for a moment, then circled the large area where Xilin was located. "No need to put anything here, proceed as planned in the rest of the area."

"So you're just going to leave this area alone?"

"Never mind, letting it go would be a waste of resources. We'll take Xilin here. As for the others, we'll proceed according to the plan."

"OK."

Gu Chang'an smiled when he heard Christy Lang's words, "Anyone who didn't know better would think that Xilin was the one you recommended."

Christy Lang wasn't angry. "There's nothing we can do. There are just too few people qualified for this position."

"Indeed, but it's still too early to say whether that kid will be able to officially take over."

The three giants remained silent. Indeed, the person ultimately chosen still needed the approval of a key decision-maker to truly take over, and that person was the progenitor of the Black Viper, this special group.

After Xilin returned to the safe zone, everyone's attitude towards him changed significantly, especially the newcomers. Before, they would joke around and punch each other without restraint, but now they were much more careful. After all, the deadline was not far away, and there was no need to offend this devil.

To Xilin and the others' surprise, the last few days were very peaceful. Most of the white rats had been eliminated in the cave. The remaining white rat bio-beasts, along with the bio-soldiers and ferocious beasts that appeared from time to time, could hardly make any progress in front of these people.

The gray cat spent its days idly rolling around on the mountainside. It would tease the ferocious beasts and then climb up the cliff to bully the giant eagle, Mercury, causing Mercury to desperately try to fly into the sky whenever it saw the gray cat. Luckily, this cat didn't have wings; what would have happened if it did!

After Xilin and Heidou finished setting up the protective network, Xilin discussed Neo's unfinished experimental plan with Neo. The last few days finally ended amidst everyone's doubts and worries.

The timing was based on Xilin and his group; the thirty-day deadline Guan Feng mentioned actually meant the thirtieth day after Xilin arrived. All tests were completed.

On this day, several large flying machines flew overhead. After landing, the machines were filled with robots that looked like humans.

The Black Viper people have nothing to worry about. They have other support aircraft that will relocate their entire laboratory and workshop.

Xilin was the first to step into the receiving aircraft, followed by Gu Xintuba and the others, and then the others followed.

As the aircraft carried the group away from the area and back to a cluster of buildings, Xilin separated from the others. Unlike the others, Guan Feng directly drove the flying car to pick Xilin up. On the way, they also picked up Bai Ye from the other side.

Unlike Xilin, Bai Ye had many wounds on his body. Not only Bai Ye, but everyone on the receiving aircraft that Bai Ye was on looked rather disheveled.

Actually, it wasn't just Bai Ye's side; the situation was the same on the other side, besides Xi Lin and his group. Seeing Xi Lin's puzzled look, Guan Feng smiled and said, "You're different from them."

"What's the difference?"

"Different roles and different positions require different qualifications."

Xilin raised an eyebrow. "Take over?"

Guan Feng raised his hand and slapped Xi Lin on the head. "Don't look like I'm unhappy. It's a good thing. To be honest, if you get this position, even without the Yuan family's backing, those nobles won't dare to offend you. If anyone offends you, just send someone to deal with them."

Xilin and Baiye completely ignored Guan Feng's words. Is this how you educate students?!

"Where are we going?" Xilin asked.

"A place."

"Nonsense!" Xilin rolled his eyes inwardly.

"We need to contact Nikki and the others first."

"No need to contact them, I've already told them."

"It seems like you've prepared everything."

"No, it's not like that. Like when you used the Razer DeathAdder to take down twelve white rats, I didn't expect it. I was so scared that I broke out in a cold sweat, but I still had to pretend to be calm and chat with those old guys." Guan Feng was very unhappy about that incident, but also very proud. In short, he had never had so many feelings in a single moment in all these years.

Bai Ye's eyelids twitched. A Hellfire Razer S?! Twelve white rats?!

He knew very well that the white rats were no less capable than the monsters that appeared later, but what did Guan Feng just say? Shoot down twelve white rats?

This really shocked Bai Ye. He had thought that Xilin, who seemed to be in good condition, hadn't encountered much difficulty, but it turned out that things weren't as he had imagined.

Guan Feng drove Xilin and Bai Ye at breakneck speed to an airport terminal, which was different from the one Xilin had landed at. Although it was still mostly filled with robots, there were also some people, and judging from their appearance, they were no ordinary individuals; they must hold considerable influence within the Black Viper organization.

As soon as Xilin got out of the car, he felt several probing gazes, one of which was particularly intense. Xilin looked over. It was a person with an ordinary appearance and no particularly strong physical abilities, but the mechanical language emanating from him was very strong. Although he was not a robot, he was emitting mechanical signals.

The gray cat perched on Xilin's shoulder and swished its tail. Privately, it told Xilin, "This person has similar signals to Sigma."

In other words, the person in front of them is the one they are looking for.

But now is not the time.

After Xilin and Baiye got off the car, another flying car landed rapidly and came to a steady stop.

The person who came out of here looked rather disheveled, just like Bai Ye back then, but he exuded a strong aura. Although the murderous aura after the battle had subsided, such a person would still command respect wherever he went.

Clearly, neither the gray cat nor Xilin belonged to that category. A feather plucked from Mercury before their separation was wrapped around the gray cat's tail. When it flicked its tail, that feather would brush against Xilin's hair.

So, while everyone else was trying to create a serious atmosphere, this man and cat were completely oblivious to the important figures present—one wagging its tail, the other fiddling with that annoying feather.

"Hey, it's you, old man!!" The gray cat pointed at Gu Chang'an, who was being pushed over by Qiu Xu, and shouted.

Gu Chang'an was still sitting in that wheelchair. Xi Lin couldn't understand it. He was clearly a perfectly healthy person. Why did he always have to sit in a wheelchair? Did all the Black Viper members have strange quirks?

Because the occasion was quite solemn, everything was very quiet. Aside from some mechanical noises, there wasn't much movement. The gray cat's meow was remarkably loud.

Old man?

Gu Chang'an, one of the three giants of Black Viper, was actually called an old man by a cat, and in a very teasing tone. So after the gray cat meowed, everyone present looked at Gu Chang'an, even the one who had just exuded a strong aura was full of surprise.

Gu Chang'an wasn't angry at all. He reached into his pocket, pulled out a bag of dried fish, and beckoned to the gray cat: "Come here, little cat. This is freshly made dried fish."

Everyone: "..."

The gray cat tilted its head back. "You think you can bribe me with a bag of dried fish?!"

Despite saying that, the cat had already leaped out and ran to Gu Chang'an in a few quick steps. It raised its paw, scooped up the bag of dried fish, and found a comfortable spot on Gu Chang'an's lap to lie down and start eating.

Xilin covered her face. So embarrassing...

The serious occasion was made much more relaxed by Gray Cat's antics. Guan Feng chuckled and shrugged at Christie Lang and the others, indicating that such things were perfectly normal.

No longer concerned about the cat, Christy Lang sent Xilin, Bai Ye, and the man named Hadar over.

"Do the three of you understand the positions you're taking over?"

Bai Ye nodded, Hadar nodded, and Xilin shook his head.

Christy Lang, unusually patient, explained to Xilin. There are three leaders in Black Viper, each with their own area of ​​responsibility. For example, Guan Feng is mainly in charge of academics and is the one who is most active in the public eye. Bai Ye succeeded Gu Chang'an and also deals with people like them. Hadar succeeded Christy Lang, a position of main decision-making and coordination.

They hoped that Xilin could succeed Guan Feng in this position, but Xilin remained silent.

What does "people like them" mean? Xilin was puzzled by this statement.

"Want to know the answer? Go find it yourself. You'll learn everything about Black Viper there," said Gu Chang'an, who was sitting in a wheelchair.

As they were talking, an aircraft descended from the sky.

When the hatch opened, Xilin saw a young man he had met before when he was in the First Affiliated Hospital, but he didn't know his identity.

After the young man appeared, Christie Lang and the other important Black Viper members bowed to him, and the young man returned the bow in kind.

"He'll lead you from here," Christy Lang said.

"Where are you going?" Xilin asked.

"Go see the ultimate decision-maker, who is also the progenitor of the Black Viper."

Speaking of this final decision-maker, whether it's the Black Viper members, including Christie Lang, or the young man who just appeared, they all have a lot of respect for this "final decision-maker".

As for the word "ancestor," Xilin didn't understand it either.

What kind of person can be called the "founding father" and receive such genuine respect from these people?

Xilin, Baiye, and Hadar boarded the aircraft, and the gray cat, still holding the bag of dried fish it hadn't finished eating, jumped on as well, and no one said a word to it.

The spacecraft's hatch closed, it took off, and it left the planet.

Their destination was another planet not far from this one. If the star map in their memory was correct, that planet was right in the center of this "vanished region".
