I'm a villain, not a devil

Chapter 544 Hidden Disaster

Outside the city, Illya was walking hurriedly, her brows furrowed and a serious look on her face.

Sure enough, the observers turned a blind eye because Eliza was her sister, and some of the information was not reported.

"What a bunch of idiots..." Illya's eyes flashed with annoyance. She repeatedly reminded them that the back door would only be opened when exchanging points, but no abnormalities should be missed in daily observations, not even her sister was allowed to be an exception!

Miss Eliza, who had little administrative ability, felt a little annoyed and powerless. She finally realized how many problems would arise when a city's administrative system was actually operating.

Inadequate communication, self-assertion...

She led her men to quickly find Eliza's camp and her sister.

"Oh, the city lord is here?" Eliza was a little surprised to see her sister, but she still teased with a smile.

Illya pulled her sister straight into the room and asked immediately without waiting for her to speak: "Tell me everything about your team members, the list of people sent into the city, and your points redemption during this period!"

Seeing her sister like this, Eliza frowned slightly, but she also knew that her sister would not behave like this if it was not a big deal, so she immediately stopped teasing and found all the information.

After some searching, Illya pointed to a list with detailed information of a ten-man team.

"These people have been on your team for ten days, so why is their output less than half of that of normal members?"

Eliza took a look and then frowned as she explained, "It's normal for newcomers to be inefficient. Besides, these ten newcomers are not from the vicinity of Paradise City. They have to familiarize themselves with the environment while getting familiar with the mutants and crazy beasts nearby. Isn't it normal that they can't earn too many points? And these guys are a bit eccentric, so they need to get to know each other first."

Illya replied loudly, "No, the process of you leading the new ones only needs three days at most, and these people are all marked with elite peak abilities. Now that the evolution speed of the mutants outside the city has slowed down, the efficiency will only be higher than before."

Eliza was suddenly startled when she heard her sister say this.

I have never paid much attention to the points situation, but now it seems that this group of newcomers is indeed a little too slow...

Illya asked, "What do those people usually do?"

"Well, they do their normal tasks and get familiar with the environment. At night, they often drink and chat with our team members... At night, they live together with the old team members who help them get familiar with the environment..."

Illya frowned. "So when they were on the mission, only those veteran team members knew the details?"

"Yes." Eliza nodded, then frowned, "But you know those veteran team members, they are all very reliable people. When they reported the situation to me, they never mentioned anything wrong."

"This is the wrong question. Their efficiency in obtaining points is so slow. As a leader who guides the new players, shouldn't the veteran players mention this to you?"

After hearing this, Eliza realized that something was wrong...

Thinking of this, she decided to go out and call all those people over for questioning.

However, Eliza was stopped by her sister. Looking back, she saw a grim look on Illya's face.

"what happened?"

"Don't alert the enemy... I also overlooked this point. The noise was a bit loud when we came..." Illya pondered for a moment and then made a decision, "It's too late to go to the city to call for help. Go and notify the Rainbow Nest Clan. You delay and I'll have someone sneak over."

“Do we need to be so cautious…” Eliza was a little confused.

Illya bit her finger and looked at her sister seriously. "If it's really just a misunderstanding, I will be laughed at in secret at most. But as a middle-level elite who became the city lord, I have been laughed at countless times. It's nothing to worry about. But if there is something wrong with that group of people, think about the recent warning signals in the city. At that time, it will really be the end of us sisters!"

After hearing what she said, even though Eliza thought she was exaggerating, she was still a little nervous, but finally nodded in agreement.

After some discussion, the two walked out of the room and called over the new team of ten people.

"I believe you have heard that I am the new lord of Paradise City and Eliza's sister." Illya began.

The leader of the ten people was a bald man. The man looked around silently and nodded after realizing that there was no change.

"I called you here because Paradise City is holding a ceremony to commend new candidates. My sister said that you guys are good, so I called you to come and take a look." After hanging out in the city for two months, Illya can lie fluently now.

"Then may I ask, what exactly are we going to do?" asked the bald man.

Illya pretended to be calm, looked at the few people out of the corner of her eyes, and said, "Newcomers who perform well can enter the city for a tour. Of course, you will be asked about them after the tour. I have some things to tell you first."

The bald man was a little confused at first, but after hearing that he could enter the city, greed flashed in his eyes.

Illya, who had been observing the few people, was shocked. She should be surprised to be able to visit the city... There was indeed something wrong with these people.

The bald man asked impatiently: "So what exactly are we going to do?"

Illya pretended to think and said intermittently: "Specifically, it is, um, it is roughly a process. If you want to magnify it, you..."

She kept delaying with official rhetoric, trying to wait for support to arrive.

The latest chapter of this novel was first released on 6@9shu#bar. Please go to shu#bar to read it!

However, the sharpness of the bald man and others exceeded her expectations. Seeing her hesitating, a flash of vigilance appeared in the bald man's eyes.

"Lord City Lord, is this really why you called us here?"

Illya pretended to be calm: "What else?"

The bald man suddenly frowned, revealing a bit of ferocity: "I didn't notice it before. After all, a city lord comes to inform you of these things in person?"

No, I was discovered!

Illya's expression tensed, and she saw that several people, led by the bald man, suddenly burst out with terrifying momentum!

They are not the elite at all. This group of people... at least three are Crimson!

broken!

The bald man and the others realized that Illya was delaying, and now that her momentum was unmistakable, they were ready to escape directly.

However, before escaping, a trace of anger flashed across the bald man's face towards the city lord who had ruined their plans.

An invisible giant hand crossed the space and was about to break Illya's neck!

At this critical moment, a silver line directly pierced through the entire space!

The bald man who could have crushed Illya to death in the blink of an eye suddenly choked on his breath, and his outstretched hand fell directly to the ground without him noticing!

"Sure enough, it's restless—"

The girl with red eyes and white hair stood in mid-air, holding the silver thread that had cut off her wrist in her hand, and a terrifying aura swept across the entire space.

There was a flash of hostility in Luo Xi's eyes, and he coldly revealed the identities of the bald man and others.

"Id-teaching..."
