People in the League, Masters of Time Management

With Youmi leading the way, Mubai and Kaisha quickly found the camp.

At that time, it was late, the bonfire was gradually extinguished, and the loggers who had been busy all day were getting ready to go to bed.

But when they saw the strange combination of these two people and one cat, most of them still sat up with perplexed expressions on their faces.

Mubai is not well-known in Bandle City, and many people don't know him.But Kai'Sa is a household name.

The girl from the void, the cursed chosen one, the powerful and unknown person... She has many nicknames, each of which is spread in the streets and alleys.

"Yumi, are you willing to come back?" A temporary excrement shoveler asked loudly, "Where's Oliver? Didn't he go out with you?"

They were a little afraid to talk to Kaisha, and they didn't know Mubai, so they had to let Yuumi talk.

"Oliver...he... was eaten by a void monster..." Yuumi's big eyes showed sadness, and a few long golden beards drooped down, looking very sad.

Before, Mubai told it to keep it a secret from everyone, and not to tell the matter about the mimic, so it had to lie.

But the sadness is real.

Oliver is pretty good to it, he will send some dried fish from time to time, he is a good guy...

"Void monster...?" Hearing this, everyone immediately became nervous, and there was a sound of clanging and clanging metal in the camp.

"It's okay, the monster has been wiped out by Mubai and Kaisha." Yuumi comforted everyone in time, grabbing the top of Mubai's head with her two front paws.

On the surface, he was introducing Mubai to everyone, but in fact he secretly took revenge.

While the few people were talking, Kai'Sa silently observed the environment in the camp, trying to find that familiar and evil aura in the air as much as possible.

After a while, she gently squeezed the small hand hidden behind Mu Bai - this is a secret signal between them, which means that a suspicious person has been found.

"I'm sorry to bother you all at such a late hour." Mubai got the instruction, immediately stood up and spoke in a magical voice:

"My name is Mu Bai. I'm an investigator specially sent by Mr. Ruiz. I'm here to confirm some things."

"First of all, I want to tell you some bad news: a highly contagious unknown disease has appeared in the city, and it has been confirmed that it was introduced into the city from outside the city."

"So, in order to ensure everyone's personal safety, I will test everyone one by one to ensure that the terrible infectious disease will no longer enter the city."

"Please also cooperate."

The voice fell, and the audience was in an uproar.

Everyone showed shocked expressions, and they couldn't believe that such a terrible thing happened just a few days after they left the city.

"May I ask Mr. Mubai, what will happen if you are found to be sick?" A lumberjack who just had diarrhea in the morning asked in a panic.

"Take some medicine and temporarily isolate yourself." Mu Bai manipulated his tone, trying to make his voice sound softer and more confident. "Don't worry, since we are here, everyone will be safe and sound."

The matter of the mimics cannot be informed to the public for the time being, let alone find out the mimics in front of everyone, so we can only use isolation instead of killing them.

As long as you can find them, you won't have to worry about having a chance to do it later.

In addition... I hope that the IQ of those monsters has not yet evolved to the point where they can see through lies.

"Oh...then please trouble Mr. Mubai!" Everyone lined up in two rows consciously while saying grateful words.

Mubai and Kai'Sa inspected a column by themselves, and Yuumi played the role of transmitting information in the middle-after all, only Kai'Sa can accurately identify the mimics.

The number of the logging team was not too large, and the number of escorting soldiers did not exceed 30. Mu Bai quickly checked from beginning to end.

Nothing out of the ordinary—at least with the eyes alone, I can't tell that anyone is particularly dull or anything like that.

Just when he was about to ask Kai'Sa how it was, the kitten above his head suddenly scratched his eyebrows.

This means there is a case inside another column.

"May I ask what your name is for this gentleman?" Mu Bai walked up to a man under Kaisha's eyes, his tone and attitude were very peaceful.

"Me?" The man immediately showed a nervous expression, "I...my name is Hans... am I sick?"

Mu Bai subconsciously frowned.

The man in front of me...can answer questions normally?

Moreover, the facial expressions, language, and movements are all very natural, which does not meet the characteristics of "low intelligence" of mimics at all.

Kasha made a mistake?Or... did they evolve?

"Yes, sir, you may be sick." Kaisha saw Mubai's hesitation, and immediately came over to help. "Sorry, we may have to quarantine you."

As soon as the girl finished speaking, a lumberjack in the crowd echoed loudly: "Hans is really sick! I felt that he was a little abnormal this morning!"

Followed by more people echoed.

"Everyone, please be calm and don't be impatient." Mu Bai pressed his hand towards the crowd, so as not to force the imitator to show his original shape on the spot due to excessive pressure. "It's just a possibility, don't worry."

After finishing speaking, he turned back to face Hans, "Mr. Hans, can you please avoid contact with anyone before going back?"

"Ah..." The man's face was tangled, and his fists were clenched tightly.

Mu Bai also put his hand on the hilt of his sword.

The atmosphere became more and more tense, and everyone watched the two with bated breath.

At this moment, a burly middle-aged man emerged from the line with an apologetic and humble expression on his face.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Mubai. I'm Bazel, the team leader. Could you please move over and have a chat?"

Mu Bai didn't answer immediately, but first glanced at Kai'Sa from the corner of his eye.

The latter moved his left index finger, indicating that there was nothing wrong with this person.

"Okay." Mubai nodded, shook off the kitten lying on his body, and followed Bazel to the bushes beside him.

Not even a mouse can be found around here, definitely a great place to plot loudly.

"What's the matter, Captain Bazel?" Mu Bai asked.

"Ah, that's how it is..." the middle-aged man whispered, "That guy Hans did catch a cold earlier, but he has been cured now. Look... is there a misunderstanding?"

"Is it cold..."

Mu Bai frowned and touched his chin, pretending to be thinking seriously.

"Misdiagnosis is not impossible, but for the sake of insurance, isolation is still required."

"Hmm..." Bazel nodded, and then asked in a half-questioning and half-curious tone:

"Have you mastered the method of detecting infectious diseases? And can you ensure that the success rate is not low?"

"It's inconvenient to disclose." Mu Bai responded.

"Oh... well, then I understand." Bazel laughed suddenly, and the laughter echoed in the silent bushes, a bit penetrating. "It seems that I still underestimate humans. Especially the girl named Kaisha."

As soon as the words fell, a huge purple tentacle shot out from his abdominal cavity, knocking Mu Bai flying more than ten meters away with lightning speed.

"Sorry, I can't let you go."

Chapter 12 Under the Sky, Above the Void

Mu Bai finally paid for his carelessness.

It never occurred to him that the man who could hide Kai'Sa from him and talk to him, and who always acted submissive, was also a mimic.

The most terrible thing is that it is not weak...

The sudden purple tentacle was so powerful that it not only broke the wind shield instantly, but also corroded part of the flesh.

"It seems that we still need to discuss with Master Yi more about humility and pride..." Mu Bai got up from the ground and shook his drowsy brain vigorously. "It's just a pity about this dress. I just bought it."

"Ok?"

Not far away, Bazel paused and turned around, with a look of surprise in his eyes.

"You are still alive, it seems that you are not an ordinary human being."

"'Also'? Don't confuse me with you monsters, thank you." Mu Bai chuckled, and the double blade slipped out of the scabbard.

The moonlight shone on the blade, reflecting a dangerous cold light.

The sword light flickered on Bazel's body, reflecting its surprised expression.

In the blink of an eye, Mu Bai and his Lan Qie arrived at the same time.

Bazel didn't expect the opponent's speed to be so fast, and he had no time to dodge, so he hurriedly raised an arm to block it.

However, how can its flesh and blood be worth a sword?

"It's such a familiar smell..." An arm fell to the ground, but Bazel didn't show too much panic. "I remembered, you are... the Chosen One? That's what humans call you, right?"

"You say yes." Mu Bai casually shook off the purple blood on the blade, making sure that the opponent is not human.

"interesting."

Bazel also flicked his severed arm, fresh flesh grew instantly, and the price was only to wither the surrounding plants.

"Are you interested in joining the Void, interesting human? I have always been very interested in runes. Unfortunately, the number of chosen ones is too small, and it is very difficult to find a partner."

Hearing this, Mu Bai couldn't help laughing out loud, and two different evil energies emanated from the double blades in his hands at the same time.

Void creatures inviting humans as partners was the funniest joke he'd heard this year.

"Don't be in a hurry to deny it, just listen to me first." Bazel took half a step back, keeping his eyes firmly fixed on the other person, lest his head fall to the ground in the next second.

"Okay, tell me." In order to collect more information about the mimics, Mu Bai was not in a hurry to do it, and immediately returned the double blades to the scabbard.

"Thank you for your understanding."

Bazel bowed very gracefully, and then said slowly:

"First of all, let me introduce myself—my name is Vel'Koz, you can also call me Void Watcher."

Hearing this familiar name, Mu Bai was a little taken aback, but he didn't interrupt him.

"Oh, of course, the one standing in front of you is not my real body. You can understand it as... a puppet controlled by my mind." Bazel, or Vel'Koz, continued:

"Back to the topic. As you can see, I actually have the ability to sneak into human towns at will. And with my knowledge and strength, it is very easy to get into a high-level position in a human town."

"Although it is difficult for you humans to break through the rune barrier, I actually have countless ways to force you out or even force you to death in the city. Just like now...Of course, this is just one of them."

"In other words...you humans have no chance of winning at all. How long you can survive depends on the wishes of the monitors."

"What you think is effective resistance, in my opinion, is no different from a mantis against a cart, or a mayfly against a tree."

"Human beings are nothing but domestic animals fed by the void."

Vel'Koz spoke in a very calm tone, as if he was stating a trivial matter.

"Embrace the void, Mubai." It slowly opened its arms, with a faint smile hanging from the corner of its mouth. "As a reward for your obedience, I promise you eternal life."

Mu Bai's hand on the hilt of the sword was slightly loosened, his brows were almost wrinkled into a ball.

"How many intelligent mimics like the one just now?" He asked in a deep voice, "A single case, or all of them?"

"Are you weighing the pros and cons against the odds? Yes, I appreciate creatures that like to use their brains."

Vel'Koz nodded in satisfaction, like a teacher praising a misbehaving apprentice.

"The mimics should be K7-type experimental subjects, right? Their intelligence level is still very low. Only individual experimental subjects directly blessed by me can reach the intelligence level of normal humans."

"But you have to ask whether this is just one case or all of them...Let's put it this way, as long as I am willing, it is only a matter of time before one case becomes all. It's just that I don't want to destroy human beings so soon."

"Understood? You humans have no chance of winning."

Mu Bai felt a terrible pressure - not the direct pressure from Vel'Koz, but the indirect pressure from Void.

If what the other party said is true, then human beings... are in danger.

And the true face of the mimic is also very clear:

Those monsters are the tools Vel'Koz uses to learn human knowledge—this damn tentacle monster has a strong desire to explore any knowledge.

After the evolution of the mimics is complete and they have learned all the knowledge of human beings, the Void is about to come true...

Mu Bai took a deep breath, forced to suppress the uneasiness in his heart, and then asked, "What do you want me to do? How should I do it?"

"Two things." Vel'Koz put on the victor's stance early on, "Kill Kai'Sa who hinders the evolution of the K7 experimental subject, and take away the kitten who is also a chosen one like you. Then, I will give you eternal life .”

After a slight pause, it raised its head, stared at the deep night sky, and continued in a complicated tone:

"It must be emphasized. Now I and human beings are not enemies, but allies."

"The other monitors have been trying to exterminate human beings as soon as possible, but I have been trying to stop them."

"They are too superficial... They think that humans are the last enemy..."
