I'm a villain, not a devil

In an instant, the entire holographic operations room entered a tense state.

The leading Bai Zhan and Jehovah stared at the 'clerk' in the distance, because as soon as he entered the range of the restraint net, this high-tech net from before the end of the world would open instantly.

Then, there was a thunderous strike!

close, close...

Everyone's breathing became rapid and tense, and Jehovah even found it difficult to resist the excitement deep in his heart.

Even though looking directly at Sean would bring him a greater sense of fear, and even the effect of the drugs was not that obvious, he still stared ahead with wide eyes.

Last time, we lost so badly!

"Ready..." Bai Zhan's hand was already on the start button. Sean was only three meters away from entering the restraint net.

However, Sean suddenly stopped.

This pause was like a hammer suddenly hitting everyone's forehead, and many people felt panic.

Those who can stand in this room are absolutely experts, and they are deeply trusted by Bai Zhan. It is precisely because of this that they are more qualified to know the truth than most people - the more they know, even if His Highness does not explain in detail why, they will know more about how terrifying Sean is.

This man faked his own death and escaped, but he has been secretly influencing the situation in the entire imperial capital.

But during this period, no one noticed.

This is a terrifying thing to think about.

Now that Sean paused, many people subconsciously straightened their bodies.

Bai Zhan scolded: "What's the hurry?"

Although he said this, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he subconsciously turned his gaze to Jehovah.

Jehovah said in a deep voice: "No, the binding net is your unique resource, Your Highness. Sean cannot possibly understand this... The energy detection equipment cannot react. Let's continue to wait."

At this time, at the edge of the restraint net, Noah's voice was ringing in Sean's mind: "Master Saint Three, the range of the restraint net has been specifically marked for you. Do you need to make it ineffective?"

Sean smiled and said, "No need."

"Yes."

He looked around silently. It seemed that Bai Zhan had really invested a lot of money this time. This restraint net was even larger than the one he had in his basement. It was foreseeable that the restraint effect would be stronger.

It’s a pity that Noah’s existence makes the cutting-edge technology of these shelters a joke.

Sean was not in a hurry to go inside. Although he didn't find where Bai Zhan and others were hiding, he knew with his butt that as soon as he entered the range, all kinds of things would come to greet him.

Moreover, this place is within the imperial palace, and I'm afraid the palace guards will attack him without any explanation.

If he was really trapped, even Sean would find it difficult to escape with so many people surrounding him.

He walked slowly into the nearest bathroom, which was closer to the restraint net. As long as he entered the inner room, he would be directly within the restraint range.

But Sean just walked closer and stopped in front of the nearest sink.

He took off his glasses looking tired, pinched his eyebrows, and then scooped up a handful of water and splashed it on his face.

Just stretch your hand a little bit to the left and you will reach the range of the restraint net.

Inside the holographic operations room, Bai Zhan and others' hearts were already in their throats.

Sean, who was sitting in front of the washbasin, seemed to be so absorbed in playing the role that he even leaned on the washbasin with both hands and began to sigh.

A hint of coldness flashed in Bai Zhan's eyes: "He is indeed a guy who is good at disguise and deception. His acting skills are outstanding."

It was the first time that no one responded to the eldest prince's words. Everyone was staring at Sean's every move.

Suddenly, he reached out to take his glasses. Maybe he was acting too hard, but his face was covered with water and he accidentally touched his glasses. The glasses fell to the ground and happened to fall into the range of the restraint net.

Sean squatted down and fumbled for his glasses.

The group of people didn't even dare to breathe, they all stared at Sean - if he got a little closer, he would be within the range of the restraint net.

Bai Zhan's hand was already on the button.

Sean's groping process was not smooth, and he even pushed his glasses a little further away. Now, if he wanted to get his glasses back, he had to completely enter the range of the restraint net!

The group became even more nervous, just waiting for the other party to fall completely into the trap.

Sean seemed to curse inwardly, then continued to grope.

Getting closer and closer.

Some people even tilted their heads and worked together with him, wishing they could transform into Sean right then and there, move closer to pick up his glasses, and then be completely trapped in the restraint net.

However, Sean just groped around the edge, occasionally touching the edge of the restraint net with his fingertips, but he just didn't go in.

With nerves extremely tense, an atmosphere of anxiety has spread in the holographic operations room.

Bai Zhan was even more nervous. He wanted to press the button several times, but Sean was always just a little bit short of getting in, which made him very annoyed.

He even suspected that the other party might have seen through his plan.

But this is totally unrealistic. If his plan is discovered, why would he come here? Just to tease so many people? Even a person with a bad taste would not joke about his own life.

At this moment, under the sink, Sean, who was lying on the ground groping for his glasses, raised the corner of his mouth slightly.

"Noah, do you think that large group of people are staring at me?"

"There is a high probability that the holographic operations room, ceiling base and other equipment can meet the requirements of one-way observation."

"Hey, that's really interesting." Sean almost laughed out loud, "Noah, how long will it take for the early warning alarm left in our basement to be triggered?"

"One minute and twenty seconds."

"I still have to act. Am I a little early?"

"Not early, Saint Three, I think you've come at the perfect time."

Time passed by minute by minute, but Sean, with water on his face, couldn't touch the damn glasses.

Inside the holographic operations room, some people were already cursing in their hearts - this guy was too devoted in his acting!

However, no one still dared to act rashly. If the other party did not enter the restraint net, then all the arrangements today would be meaningless.

Suddenly, Sean wiped the water off his face and his mouth moved a few times, as if he was cursing something inwardly.

He finally found the location of his glasses and crawled over there on the ground.

This time, his goal was clear and his movements did not stop at all.

coming soon!

Everyone tensed up. Bai Zhan pressed his palm against the button and felt a slight damping sensation.

However, just when Sean was about to completely enter the restraint net, Bai Zhan suddenly shuddered all over, and the warning sound from the back of his head made him press the button directly.

The restraint net was activated half a second in advance!

However, it was this half second that made Sean, who had not yet fully entered the restraint net space, immediately alert.

He gave up all his disguises without any hesitation, and didn't even look at the glasses. He disappeared into the air like a ghost.

In the holographic operations room, the moment the restraint net was activated, everyone rushed out.

However, the binding net did not catch the imagined enemy at all. It was empty and only the air that had just fluctuated was left.

With such a large mobilization and such a high level of preparedness, there was no resistance, no battle of wits and courage... everything became nothing.

The iron fist that had been held back for a long time punched the air, and the people who rushed out subconsciously looked at Bai Zhan.

And at this moment, Bai Zhan's hands were actually shaking slightly.

My basement...was invaded?!

It was this extremely coincidental timing that allowed him to press the start button half a second in advance!

Everything was in vain, Sean had disappeared without a trace, and without the restraint net, it was like looking for a needle in a haystack to search for a crimson warrior who was good at disguise and illusion.

But there is more…

Bai Zhan's hands felt slightly cold. The basement that only he and a few of his closest confidants knew about... was actually invaded at this critical moment? !

Seeing that Bai Zhan said nothing, the others suddenly didn't know what to do or say.

They didn't know what happened in the basement, and had no idea that Bai Zhan pressed the button under stress. They just thought that the prince was too nervous.

But this is the Grand Prince, should we still blame him?

And beside Bai Zhan, Jehovah was almost fainted from anger.

The best opportunity to catch Sean was missed because of Bai Zhan's stupidity?!

He almost wanted to vent all his anger and fiercely accuse this useless waste!

The last bit of rationality in his heart made Jehovah calm down.

Glancing at Bai Zhan, he cursed in his heart, "Useless!" Then he waved his hand and said seriously, "Everyone, search wherever you can. Tell the guards that there are assassins in the palace, let them go too!"

"Yes!"

When the crowd quickly dispersed, Jehovah looked at Bai Zhan. He took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Your Highness, this..."

Bai Zhan's expression was extremely ugly. Not only did he fail to catch Sean, but his basement was also invaded...

Now, Sean is no longer the focus, his mind is all on his secret place.

But, I can't let other people know.

Turning stiffly, Bai Zhan took a deep breath and said, "It was my mistake this time... Sean has become alert, and it will be difficult to set a similar trap again... Military Advisor, please clean it up."

After saying that, Bai Zhan left quickly.

Looking at Bai Zhan's departing figure, Jehovah's eyes suddenly became deep and vicious.

"Useless trash..."

The noise in the palace did not last long. It was obvious that the other party could not stay here. In the end, everyone here evacuated, leaving only the chains in the temporary prison still ringing.

As the night deepened, inside the emperor's bedroom, a man in a black hood reported everything in a low voice.

Finally, the emperor's old voice sighed.

"Bai Zhan... is still too young."

Jehovah's voice sounded: "If we let Sean escape this time, it will be almost impossible to catch him again. This person is cautious and insidious. We had to rely on a certain information gap to set a trap before... After that, we have to consider how he will deal with me."

The emperor remained silent for a long time.

Finally, he spoke: "That's your problem... Bai Zhan is my son, and Sean is also my son. This time, I wanted to make it up to Bai Zhan... But now that things have come to this, I will no longer pay attention to it. From now on, you can do whatever you want."

Jehovah was silent for a while, then half-knelt and nodded: "I understand."

"Go."

"Yes, I will continue to urge Bai Zhan to complete the construction of the statue."

"Ah."

After Jehovah left the bedroom, the figure lying on the bed straightened up slightly and looked into the distance.

After a moment, he said with a little doubt: "I know that Bai Zhan has hidden something from me, and Jehovah also has many ulterior motives... But Sean, hehe, is hiding a lot of things I don't know... Interesting, interesting."

He lay back on the bed and slowly closed his eyes: "Mother, do you think I should change my candidate?"

No one answered him, there was only a long silence.

……

At this moment, Bai Zhan, who had already rushed back to his residence, was running quickly towards his basement.

When he arrived at the door of the basement and saw that all the defense facilities were intact, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, I left enough defensive forces in the basement..."

Feeling relieved, Bai Zhan's face flashed a hint of coldness. "Who invaded my basement... Could it be Sean? That guy had expected it, so he was trying to attract my attention and invade my basement? However, he must be in the palace to attract my attention, and his men naturally don't have the ability to come here and make trouble..."

"Oh, even if he comes here in person, it would be a pipe dream to break through my defense in a short period of time. He might even be trapped here..."

After a series of complicated authentications, Bai Zhan finally walked into the basement.

As soon as he entered, his expression became more relaxed.

The robots were still operating according to the established programs, and there were no signs of being tampered with.

He breathed a sigh of relief and opened the nearest door.

Immediately, Bai Zhan's smile completely froze on his face.

In the resource area, the most precious items had all been swept away, even the ten solid medicines that he had accumulated for a long time had all been stolen!

Bai Zhan, with veins bulging out, looked gloomy and ran quickly towards a more important area.

More than a dozen parasitic masks and their jars disappeared!

Bai Zhan almost suffocated and was about to fall to the ground.

Thick pollution dissipated, and a huge proliferation mask slowly unfolded behind him.

The scene before him almost made him lose control and go crazy!

“Who… is it!”

The voice was full of hatred, as if it was fished out from the magma of the earth, and blood and broken teeth were clearly visible sliding down from the lips.

……

At this moment, Sean was snuggling in a warm bed.

A young woman with a good figure was serving him wholeheartedly, and from time to time she raised her charming and moving eyes, as if she was surprised by his sudden arrival, and seemed to be blaming him for notifying her in advance.

However, Elisa Lam did not slow down at all.

Sean pulled the pillow over and placed it behind his back comfortably.

"Tsk, intrigue is so boring, this is life."
