I'm a villain, not a devil

In the secret room of the military headquarters, two figures faced each other. The silence in the darkness made it difficult to breathe.

Finally, the figure sitting on the left moved, and his face appeared under the dim ceiling light.

The Grand Marshal of the Empire, Wu Xiao, is also a student of Prince Bai Youming.

His face was as gloomy as water, and his naturally smiling face now looked even colder.

"Your Highness, are you saying...something is lost?"

His voice seemed calm, but the anger within was clear.

The other man naturally fought in vain. He took a deep breath and showed a tired and anxious face.

"Yes, I must inform you that the mask constructed with my supernatural power is lost... My manor in the southwest of the imperial capital was robbed... My defense measures failed for some reason... The lost items include the mask that you and I used to communicate, and I..."

He paused, then apologized: "I marked my personal information under the mask."

Wu Xiao said "Oh" and then raised his head slightly: "In other words, that... thief? He knew about my secret contact with you."

Bai Zhan nodded irritably: "Yes, so I came to inform you as soon as possible."

"Notification?" Wu Xiao suddenly raised the corners of his mouth. If there were people who were familiar with him here, they would know that once this stern marshal showed an expression similar to smiling, it meant he was angry.

Wu Xiao looked at Bai Zhan and finally stood up.

"Then from today on, all our previous cooperation will come to an end. From now on, the military will no longer give you any support, at least not from me. Your Highness, I have to say that you disappoint me a little."

Bai Zhan's mind buzzed, but he also understood that there was no point in saying more, so he just stood up, nodded stiffly, and left the secret room.

When his figure disappeared, Wu Xiao's eyes flashed with coldness: "Useless... None of His Majesty's sons can accomplish anything..."

"Teacher, it would be great if you really had a son."

……

In the car, Bai Zhan sat in the middle of the back seat with all the windows closed. After a moment of daze, he kicked hard in the front. The specially prepared car even bounced on the road. The driver in front hurriedly took control of the steering wheel and immediately pressed the button to start the backup energy - the kick just now almost broke the car.

I don’t know why His Highness is so angry… the driver thought with some fear.

Bai Zhan in the back row was breathing heavily, his eyes filled with frightening bloodshot.

This time, my loss was horribly huge!

The ten most important solid medicines numbered 16539 among those resources were all missing, and this was tantamount to wasting his time for future promotion - now, time was the only most important thing!

In addition to the loss of other equally precious resources, the most important thing was the loss of the mask.

That is your own way out.

It was impossible for him to put all his hopes on the current resources, and although Jehovah was mysterious and powerful, he was not a person who could be fully trusted. Bai Zhan was very self-aware. He had not inherited the throne, so he was just a prince and could not necessarily gain the other party's full trust.

He must leave himself enough room for retreat.

This is also the reason why Bai Zhan immediately found Wu Xiao after he discovered that something was lost.

Unlike other owners of parasitic masks, Wu Xiao is a real power holder, and everyone thinks that he is Bai Youming's student and will not easily join forces before Bai Youming expresses his position.

He had spent countless efforts to establish a relationship with Wu Xiao, and this did not win Wu Xiao's support, it merely left a possibility for cooperation.

The help provided by Wu Xiao was definitely better than that of most people. For example, the crazy beast that he had the Idoccult transform was from Wu Xiao. A living, highly concealed crimson mid-level crazy beast was not something that could be obtained casually.

The fact that he was able to quickly establish various interpersonal relationships in the military was also related to Wu Xiao - even though he and the emperor's uncle had secretly fallen out before, Wu Xiao did not express much, which was enough to prove a lot of things.

But now...

Nothing is left!

All because of the plan to kill Sean... But it happened to be the moment when the defense measures were triggered...

Who is it, who sneaked into my basement...

Bai Zhan's eyes were almost on fire. He held one foot of the seat tightly with one hand until the leather seat was completely turned into powder.

Can't delay any longer...

……

"what is this?"

The people around Sean gathered together for a rare occasion, and they all stared at the solid medicine in the man's hand.

“Number 16539!” The Wasteland King Yuyan’s name is not for nothing. Bai Ye immediately recognized what was in Sean’s hand.

Her eyes widened a little: "Where did you get them? One, two, three, four... a total of nine?! I remember that the Imperial Treasury only adds a new one every two years. I heard that when the war ended, the Emperor's uncle only received three as a reward."

Sean shrugged. "From your older brother."

"My eldest brother?" Bai Ye was stunned for a moment, then looked at Sean in disbelief, "You went to raid my eldest brother's house?"

Sean blinked. “That’s about right.”

Various emotions flashed through Bai Ye's eyes, and finally turned into enlightenment: "I received news last night that there was movement in the palace but it was not big... My eldest brother has not appeared in public since entering the palace... Was it at that time? But why did you... Wait, you took advantage of my eldest brother's mentality of setting a trap to catch you and directly raided his house?"

Sean laughed, "Of course."

Bai Ye was speechless. She thought Sean would go and investigate again to seek death, but she didn't expect that he would actually have this idea.

Sean stretched and briefly talked about what happened yesterday, then called everyone over.

"Moza, this is yours, Cheryl, this is yours, Xiaoci, come here, Zhuzhu, this is yours..."

Everyone present was given a precious number 16539, including Bai Ye.

"You should wait until you reach Deep Red before taking this stuff. That way, the effect will be maximized. You don't have to hold it in. You can take it after you reach Deep Red's stable energy. As for the taste, it's a bit sweet and bitter, and it also smells a bit like gasoline. It's not very delicious... Wait a minute, Xiao Ci!"

Before he finished his words, Sean saw Xiao Ci's cheek bulge out.

"You're eating it now?"

Xiao Ci raised his head in confusion, and his throat moved, and the solid medicine went directly into his stomach.

She smacked her lips and said, "It's really not very tasty...Brother, didn't you give it to me so that I could eat it?"

Sean didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Isn't this a waste? You can maximize the effect when you eat it in Crimson. Come here and let me see...hiss."

The drug number 16539, also known as the violent tonic, seemed to have no effect on Xiao Ci. The energy in her body not only did not become manic due to the large amount of energy flowing into it, but all stayed in her body obediently.

Xiao Ci's level also rose rapidly and reached the peak of the king level.

"Burp——" Xiao Ci burped and looked at Sean in confusion.

The rest of the crowd: "..."

It seems that this cheap sister of mine is indeed not normal... After Sean, who is at the middle level of Crimson, ate this thing, his body went wild for a while, but Xiao Ci didn't react at all.

"It seems like we really have to start preparing for your promotion to Crimson..." Sean said helplessly.

However, since they had already eaten it, Xiao Ci seemed to be very accustomed to this huge amount of energy, so Sean didn't care either.

But others must wait until they are promoted to Crimson before taking it.

Looking at Cheryl, Sean said, "Cheryl, you can't hold it back any longer... Now that Bai Zhan knows I'm not dead, he might have tried not to alert the enemy, but after last night, at least there was a rift between him and me, so you will definitely be arrested - do you know what to do?"

Cheryl rubbed his head in a simple manner and said, "I know, it's time for a promotion."

The two looked at each other and chuckled.

This was a bomb left behind by both of them, and Sean only knew about it after Cheryl told him about it.

Judging from the previous ability ratings of the Dusk Tower, Cheryl has a very rare and powerful S+ level talent, Flesh and Blood Resurrection.

This top-level enhanced talent gave Cheryl extremely terrifying physical combat power and recovery ability, and the blood of the maniac that Sean got for him was from a bear-type maniac that was very suitable for his situation.

What's more, the bear-shaped crazy beast is a very rare small species.

That is to say, after reaching Crimson, if Cheryl wanted, he could even travel around the world carrying his own proliferation on his back - even if the proliferation of the bear-shaped maniac beast was fully formed, it would not be as big as Cheryl himself.

Not only that, Cheryl has been at the peak of the king level for a long time, which has also led to him becoming more and more aware of his physical condition.

When Cheryl advances to the crimson fusion of the blood of the crazy beast, his abilities will be greatly enhanced.

Cheryl's ability to revive flesh and blood has the ability to cause the blood of those around her to roar. At first, when Cheryl faced Roxie, he used all his abilities and directly "resurrected" the woman who had been dismembered beside Sean. This is the terrifying aspect of reviving flesh and blood.

When promoted to Crimson, the enhancement of this ability will bring about an extremely strong blood roar, so Cheryl reminded Sean before.

When he is promoted, it is best if there is no one around. Otherwise, under the influence of the sudden enhancement of his supernatural powers, there is a high probability that the blood of people nearby will boil directly, or even explode.

Sean agrees with this.

When Cheryl advances, it would be best if she doesn't have anyone around her.

It would be best if they were all people I disliked...

The effect of Cheryl's infiltration into Bai Zhan's camp is about to be exerted. Of course, if you want Cheryl's promotion to kill a large number of Bai Zhan's people, you have to consider a problem first.

How can Cheryl advance safely? If he is caught, his superpowers will be restrained and he won't be able to bring the blood of the crazy beast in. In order to prevent Sean from rescuing people, all those precautions must be taken.

Sean naturally has his own way to deal with this.

Seeing the two people discussing enthusiastically, Bai Ye clenched the solid medicine number 16539 in her hand a little tighter. For some reason, she also wanted to join in.

However, in the end, Bai Ye was still waiting on the side - it was quite interesting to watch Zhu Zhu and Xiao Ci chatting...

When the two of them finished discussing, Bai Ye, who was about to add something, stopped talking. However, she still raised her previous doubts: "Although you raided my eldest brother's house, it doesn't seem to have much impact on the situation?"

Sean turned his head and smiled casually: "On the surface, it looks like this, but do you think Bai Zhan is in a hurry now?"

Bai Ye frowned, "Of course I am anxious. You have many secret messages about him, and now we don't know where the uncle is. If he comes back, everything will be over. According to the uncle's character, Bai Zhan's life will never be easy. Besides, my father will not confront the uncle head-on over such a thing."

Sean snapped his fingers. "That's right. As long as my godfather comes back, Bai Zhan will be finished. So, he is very anxious now. He must prepare everything while my uncle is not back. He will start to go crazy."

Bai Ye frowned and looked over: "Did you think of all this? It's not surprising... However, according to the current situation, although the eldest brother's madness will lead to many omissions and he may find more loopholes, don't forget that he will definitely target you. This is the empire, and he is the eldest prince of the empire. There are many twists and turns in this, and it is still unrealistic for you to confront him head-on in terms of power."

Sean blinked and said, "Who said your brother would go crazy against me next?"

Bai Ye looked disgusted: "You are still selling cheaply at this time? If not you, who else can my eldest brother target?"

Sean interrupted her: "Who do you think your eldest brother hates the most right now?"

"Of course it's you." Bai Ye said as a matter of course, and everyone else thought so too.

Sean spread his hands and said, "I just didn't fall into his trap, and caused him to be distracted, and finally the basement of the manor was robbed. However, things always have to come down to the essence. Shouldn't the person he hates the most be the one who stole many of his important things?"

Bai Ye asked curiously: "Of course, isn't that you..."

Suddenly, she was startled, and then looked at Sean in disbelief: "You left a trap in there?"

Sean chuckled: "Originally, I could have prevented Bai Zhan from finding out that his basement had been robbed, but I have the best alibi..."

Bai Ye sucked in a breath of cold air: "You were testing the bottom line with them in the palace at that time... My eldest brother is your alibi, so my eldest brother was suspicious of you at first because he was blinded by anger, but after calming down..."

Sean clapped his hands: "Bai Zhan would naturally think of that. No, isn't Sean in front of me? Then, who stole my basement?"

"This person must try to understand me, and must be ambitious and capable..."
