The old man you see with your phone is highly suspicious.

"Susu, have you checked the Alban family's festival schedule? When does it start, and when will Harley Alban arrive?" Xue Dinglu asked at this moment.

"Huh? I don't know!" Su Su immediately froze on the spot.

"Usually, they come during the harvest season, which is about three days later." Faust, on the contrary, seemed to know everything, even better than Susu, who had possessed the Olben family's body, about the Olben family's customs.

"What are the specific plans next?" Faust asked in return after the specific time was given.

“Three days is enough time for me to do a lot. I also brought a team of a hundred members from the Akatsuki organization, which can spread throughout Tulip City. Even if the Orburn family finds out, I am still a member of the Orburn family now. At most, it can be considered as a branch family undermining the main family. I will try to make arrangements during this time,” Xue Dinglu said.

At this moment, Faust suddenly stood up: "Actually, our plan has many problems. Many parts are too presumptuous. Even if we find Harley, I believe that you, Apostle, can successfully ambush her if you are prepared to catch her off guard. But even if we lure Mephisto here through Harley, how should we deal with him?"

"I will take action, and I can also find a friend with combat power similar to that of an ordinary apostle," Xue Dinglu said, but in fact, there are many problems with this.

In other words, Xue's Law does not know whether Xue's Law, together with Captain Singal of the Starfleet, can suppress Mephisto on their home planet.

You might spend all your time scheming, only to find out you can't win.

Xue's previous plan included taking away the remaining population of this world and then destroying the planet.

However, he now felt that this plan was somewhat far off. The Akatsuki organization currently had hundreds of thousands of members, and the number of people connected to Su Su through the Divine Descent Technique was only that many. This was a lot for a single organization, but far too few for Xue Lude, who wanted to save everyone.

Even if they desperately develop their network and spread the Akatsuki organization to all the nearby cities in the remaining time, they can probably only take away a few million people at most.

His initial plan was indeed somewhat presumptuous, after all, he did not know much about the world before. He even thought that the population of this world was concentrated, but he did not expect that this world had hundreds of cities, distributed tens of thousands of kilometers apart. The whole world was basically sparsely populated, and Roland City was only a slightly above-average of these hundreds of cities.

If given time, he could sweep the Akatsuki organization across all the cities in the world like the Yellow Turban Rebellion in just one or two years. Then he could launch a massive transfer, using the consciousness space as a transit point to move everyone to the temporary settlement of the interstellar column.

But he doesn't have that much time, and perhaps no one else in this world does either.

"So, what are your thoughts?" Xue Dinglu asked directly.

Faust took a deep breath; the old gentleman seemed to have made the most important decision of his life.

“I think that by using the same body-snatching technique as you, I can also function in a normal human body and get close to Mephisto,” Faust said. In the past few days, he had also figured out the body-snatching technique that Xue Dinglu and the others were using.

This is a technique with significant side effects. For example, Xue Dinglu's compatibility with this body is currently very low, and the original body cannot exert much power. However, the concealment of this body-snatching technique is unparalleled.

After all, it originated from the Mind Flayer's technique, which was originally a targeted ability to counter the world consciousness scan. In the world of Angel Rachel, the Mind Flayer God King did not discover his problem even when he fought Rachel head-on, despite Rachel's authority over the world, until he summoned the Divine Tree.

Therefore, the concealment of this body-snatching ability is beyond doubt. No matter how much the world consciousness scans, it will be difficult to detect that this body has been possessed.

Unless targeted code is prepared in advance, and unless the mind flayer actively exposes itself, even physical contact will not be detected.

However, one can sense contact on a spiritual level, since possession involves a change of soul, but no one would be crazy enough to engage in soul-to-soul contact.

"Whom do you want to possess?" Xue Dinglu asked.

Faust must have already decided on his target for possession, otherwise he wouldn't have told Xue Dinglu directly, and it's highly likely that Xue Dinglu was an old friend of his in the Hymn Society, so that he could get close to Mephisto.

Faust's lips curled into an exaggerated grin, and he exclaimed, "Harley Alban!"

"Oh, I see... Wait, who?" Xue Dinglu was immediately filled with questions.

Even Su Su, who was completely bewildered by the riddle, instantly snapped out of her daze when she heard that Faust wanted to possess Harley Alban, revealing a horrified expression: "I remember, isn't the head of this Alban family a woman? And she's more than friends with that apostle, but not quite lovers?"

“That’s right, it’s Harley Albann. I want to possess her and use her body to get close to Mephisto,” Faust said. “Furthermore, I know Harley and Mephisto very well. They are both my students. I have lived and worked with them for nearly a hundred years. I can perfectly imitate Harley’s personality, demeanor, and even her movements…”

“I’m even confident that even in my current spirit form, I can possess Harley, and once I have control of her body, carrying out some plans will be much easier.” Faust smiled, a smile that suddenly became sinister.

"No, why would you possess a woman's body? Killing someone is just a matter of beheading, you can just kill her and that's it..." Su Su seemed a little confused. With her IQ of 250, she couldn't figure out what Faust wanted to do by possessing her female student's body.

"What are you doing?" Faust laughed wildly, his mouth almost reaching his ears. "I'll poison him, and then find a way to break through that barrier with Mephisto and unite with him!"

Xue's Law: "!!!"

Su Su: "!!!"

"Huh?" The two of them exclaimed in shock at the same time.

Even at this moment, Xue Dinglu suddenly realized that his extraordinary wisdom was like that of a green recruit in front of Faust.

What the hell is this "world-shaking wisdom"? Translate this for me: what exactly is "world-shaking wisdom"?

This kind of wisdom is something Xue's Law could never have imagined in a lifetime.

"Brother, I'm scared..." Su Su immediately hid behind Xue Dinglu.

"Don't be afraid, let me be afraid first..."

Chapter 396 The Most Despicable Plan in History (A long chapter of 10,000 words, made up for yesterday's absence)

Nothing happened in Yujin City that day, except for the Akatsuki members who were secretly developing their own networks there, who were busy with their own activities.

After all, as long as you recruit people to join your downline, your status will continuously rise, and the feedback from this increase in power is countless times stronger than any other incentive.

Furthermore, whenever the Akatsuki recruits someone, the other person immediately gains power, and this miraculous birth makes newcomers believe it without a doubt.

Thus, the Akatsuki organization took root in Tulip City and began to develop rapidly.

Soon, the Alban family discovered the Akatsuki's underhanded actions. After all, Tulip City was the Alban family's backyard, and it was impossible for them not to notice the problem.

"This organization formed by the branch family is quite interesting. Are they distributing bread and water to the commoners for free? Why are they doing this?" The third elder of the Alban family, who was in charge of intelligence gathering, scoffed after seeing this intelligence.

"I guess Roland City doesn't have enough people, so they're trying to take more people away this way," the elder said.

"Tsk, I never thought that Roland's Alban would be in such a sorry state now. Hundreds of years ago, who would have thought that they were still the main family line?" The Third Elder's words were tinged with regret.

Although there are minor conflicts within the family, they are generally afraid of both the hardship of splitting up the family and the potential for a "Land Rover" (a metaphor for a family's rapid growth). If one branch of the family develops particularly rapidly, even to the point of surpassing the main family, they will definitely try to put pressure on it.

But if a branch family was almost wiped out and is now only able to maintain its position by finding a son-in-law for a young girl, they would only sigh and lament, while secretly preparing to provide some financial assistance.

At the very least, although many people died in Roland's branch, they controlled the entire city. If it develops well, Roland City could very well become a city completely controlled by the family, like Tulip City, a hundred years from now.

"That's how it will be tomorrow. Send some of the more frustrated members of the family to Roland City, and provide them with some other supplies. As for the Akatsuki's underhanded tactics of recruiting people, let them be. After all, Roland City's population this year may not meet that person's standards," the First Elder said.

Speaking of "that person," the Third Elder sighed and said, "Yes, that person's appetite is growing bigger and bigger. Now he actually wants us to have an annual population growth of more than 3%, and for each of our cities to have a population increase of at least one million in 10 years. And we can't cut back on the women we have to offer as tribute. What are we going to do..."

"Sigh..." The Grand Elder also sighed.

For some reason, that lord proposed the "Prosperity Plan," which all nobles were required to implement, so that the lower classes wouldn't be exploited too much...

But how can they meet Your Excellency's demands for tribute if they don't exploit the common people? How can such a large family operate if they don't exploit the common people?

As for the "Prosperous Children Plan," it's giving them a real headache. How can a city increase its population while still providing 5 women every year?

Isn't this making things difficult for these nobles?

"Alas, that lord doesn't understand our hardships. Achieving this population growth rate is so difficult, so very difficult!" The Third Elder also sighed.

"We can only take advantage of the patriarch's return this time and have him whisper sweet nothings in that person's ear," the First Elder said, while they themselves harbored rebellious thoughts.

"Is that gentleman getting too old and starting to have problems?"

They had this question because the head of the Alban family had become more and more acerbic in recent years, as if she were going through menopause, and it was even obvious that she was different from the portrait of her when she was young.

This led others to wonder, do gods also grow old?

……

Meanwhile, the Akatsuki organization, which had completely occupied the entire city of Roland, began to accept Xue's arrangement that all those who had reached the quasi-legendary level must go to other cities to develop their downlines.

Originally, Roland City's network of contacts had been almost completely developed. At this point, all the accumulated contradictions within the loosely organized Akatsuki would erupt.

After all, if an organization is thriving, all the contradictions and injustices will disintegrate on their own, and the people under its command will work hard to make a living. However, when development stagnates or is even hindered, all the pent-up contradictions will gradually erupt.

Roland City will soon enter this situation, because the entire city has been occupied by the Akatsuki organization. More and more people are unable to recruit downlines, and as their strength cannot be improved, many people begin to feel anxious and even start fighting for territory and downlines.

If left unchecked, this turf war and the struggle for downlines will only escalate, to the point that these kids who originally hated gangs will become new gangs in a very short time, and do even worse things.

The only way to prevent this contradiction is to allow the organization to continue to develop and grow stronger.

This is the instruction given by Xue's Law: to establish Akatsuki branches in other cities, develop subordinates in other cities, and thus increase power, gain higher status, and better resources.

In that instant, the Akatsuki members in Roland City went mad. They frantically packed bread and rushed out of Roland City, heading towards cities they knew of overnight, all in an effort to get ahead of their competitors in developing their downlines in new cities.

They all gained extraordinary powers, and even when developing their downlines, they could completely eliminate their fatigue. This sense of pleasure and satisfaction from the increase in power...

To succeed, you must first go crazy and charge forward with all your might!

They all carried as much food as they could and rushed to other cities to recruit more people, earn money, and then sell the food to develop even more recruits!

All of this is happening very quickly.

……

Meanwhile, in the space of consciousness, Xue's Law silently moved a little further away from Faust.

However, they all agreed to Faust's plan to possess Harley Alban, poison her, and then get close to Mephisto.

Although this plan was incredibly ingenious, even Xue, who was well-informed, felt a deep-seated fear.

This is no longer the emotion provided by the fleeting sands, but a fear from the deepest part of my heart...

A tech geek?

Damn tech geek!

Possessing one's own female student and then having sex with one's own male student—is this some kind of astonishing wisdom that a human could come up with?

Both Su Su and Xue Dinglu felt as if the universe had exploded in their minds, with countless strange and twisted plans being forcibly crammed into them, as if trying to strengthen their intelligence.

Xue's Law has to admit that Faust is the strongest in terms of astonishing wisdom!

Xue Law admires even this level of ruthlessness towards himself!

It's important to understand that possession isn't a matter of remote control; the actual sensations are fed back to the soul. To make his plan more reliable, Faust didn't hesitate to possess a woman and poison her at point B, thus completing his grand scheme.

With such ruthlessness and decisiveness, Xue Dinglu and his companion seemed like green recruits in his presence.

Faust, the sacrifice was too great...

Similarly, just how much does he hate Mephisto? To the point that he's willing to go to such lengths?

Xue Dinglu was frightened and silently returned to his dormitory in the academy. At this moment, Su Su finally spoke up: "Brother, Faust... he's really ruthless..."

“Yes…” Xue Dinglu was speechless.

Both of them felt a chill run down their spines. They hadn't expected anyone to actually do this, but they both agreed to the plan because it would indeed increase the success rate and deliver a devastating blow to Mephisto at a crucial moment.

Xue's Law even began to conceive of what kind of poison could affect the Apostles, preferably one that would not be detected by the Apostles, or one that, even if detected, would only bring benefits.

However, at the moment Xue's Law is detonated, it will cause him unparalleled damage.

This kind of poison, Xue's Law, really exists!
