Even if the Death-Seeking Potion is gone, isn't there still Bright Crystal?

Having absorbed the Death-Seeking Potion's toxins, it can release toxins of the same nature.

Jacques · Vita, who had been brutally tormented, clearly had no will to resist further.

"...Actually, I'm not very clear about what the Ying Shi Plan specifically is."

Hearing Jacques · Vita's opening remarks, Mingxi raised her eyebrows.

It was an unsurprising answer.

Jacques · Vita looked like a special individual recruited by a certain organization; while not an outer small fry, he was definitely not at the level of an internal core member.

He was probably equivalent to the trusted subordinate of a gang leader, a core member of a small circle within a larger circle.

He could be exposed to and participate in confidential missions, but he did not know the specific details and content of the missions.

His death would not affect the overall mission, nor would there be any need to worry about him exposing the true secrets.

From the fact that he could casually mention the Ying Shi Plan and treat it as a novelty with his lovers, it could be seen that the name of this plan might even be fake.

If he were a core member who truly knew the plan, he would inevitably be subjected to skills like 'Mute' or 'Dead Soul' to prevent him from revealing relevant content.

An evil organization capable of concocting so many bizarre evil arts and being so cunning would not fail to consider this, nor would it lack such means.

Jacques · Vita's ability to act so recklessly and chuunibyou could only mean that the information he possessed was not important.

In that case, what Mo Ci revealed...

The dark pupils beneath Mingxi's long lashes grew deeper and more obscure.

"The instruction I received was to secretly bring people into the Shadow Abyss through a special rift passage and to encircle and slaughter the Transcendent creatures in the Shadow Abyss F003 area. The mission duration was half a month, and we entered the Shadow Abyss three days ago."

Shadow Abyss F003 was the area they were currently in, the ancient city of Aminini.

Although its area was vast, it was the safest area in the Shadow Abyss.

Mingxi frowned and asked, "What about those human and beast bones? You couldn't have killed them all in three days, could you?"

"I don't know, it was already like this when we arrived."

"I'm not lying to you!"

They were actually startled when they discovered those skeletons.

Although Mingxi did not have a lie-detecting rat, she had the astute Guangguang and the wise Emerald Green by her side, so she was not worried that Jacques · Vita was lying.

"So, what is the name of the organization you joined?"

Jacques · Vita slowly raised his eyes, scoffed, and said, "Didn't you already know?"

It seemed it really was Descent.

Alright, Mingxi wasn't in the business of interrogation, so she didn't ask him to be serious and answer clearly.

There was no need; Descent' true nature had already been exposed.

"That item that allows pet beasts to temporarily undergo exclusive evolution, Youyou, and this bone flute, were they all given to you by the Descent Organization?"

Aside from the last large lump, Mingxi was still a little interested in that staff item.

"...They were mission rewards my superior gave me in advance, saying they could greatly enhance my strength and allow me to possess the most perfect pet beast in the world." His tone carried a hint of mockery.

Thinking of Black Helga, which had been as brittle as a centuries-old grandfather's leg bones just now, how could Jacques · Vita not realize he had been deceived?

"So you really were just a guinea pig, I didn't misunderstand you."

Mingxi spoke sarcastically, without any pity.

However—

"You don't seem like an idiot.

You are so confident that Black Helga can achieve the so-called super-god evolution by absorbing the blood and vitality of its companions.

Does this mean you've seen similar successful cases before?"

Jacques · Vita's eyes flickered slightly.

He sighed:

"...I did indeed witness one of my superior's subordinates use the same divine bone flute.

At that time, his first pet beast, Lulu Sleeve, evolved into a five-element Transcendent creature after devouring his other pet beasts.

Lulu Sleeve, whose superficial level was only Shi-level, had a true combat power exceeding the Emperor-level, and could even fight a Saint-level Lumi Sleeve to a three-seven split."

He had witnessed such miracles more than once or twice, and those people and their super-god evolved pet beasts were all fine afterwards.

It was for this reason that he firmly believed that super-god evolution was real and effective, and would not cause any negative impact on Beast Tamers.

"As expected of an evil organization, their methods of deception are truly shocking."

After detailed questioning about Jacques · Vita's firsthand experiences, Mingxi speculated that the so-called successful cases of super-god evolution were highly likely to be fake.

Either Jacques · ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) Vita saw mental illusions created by skills, or it was a more cruel situation.

All those people were sacrifices.

Moreover, they were twin or multiple-birth slave children raised by the Descent Organization from a young age.

They had identical faces, contracted identical pet beasts, and had identical personalities and habits.

Their only purpose in life might have been to put on a performance called super-god evolution for guinea pigs like Jacques · Vita who fell into the trap.

Finally, they would be destroyed as failures.

Based on the situation described by Jacques · Vita, the latter possibility was very high.

Because he said that hundreds, even thousands, of people witnessed the miracle with him each time.

Descent were creating a large number of guinea pigs through such performances.

Even if only one in twenty people became interested in super-god evolution, they would definitely not lose 'money'.

And these people would not only produce guinea pigs.

Because the world has no shortage of fools who love to daydream, and also ambitious individuals with high intelligence and emotional quotients.

And these people could be developed into collaborators, or even angel investors.

Mingxi thought of the mountains of corpses and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

After confirming that she could no longer extract any useful information from Jacques · Vita, Mingxi had Emerald Green give all five of them a dose of Sweet Dream One Month.

During her time idling at Wanling University, Red Jade had successfully created life space items using life source essence gold and other spatial materials.

After Mingxi's Drawing Spirit, it successfully became an artificial rule item.

The Ring of Life.

In other words, Mingxi could now also be a qualified prison warden.

She threw the sleeping bodies of Jacques · Vita and the four others into the Ring of Life, planning to hand them over to the Silver Radiance Group for processing upon her return.

Given the Silver Radiance Group's professionalism, they should be able to obtain more information about Descent from them.

Perhaps they could even use this to engage in a mutually beneficial exchange with Jacques · Vita's supposedly high-ranking senator father.

In short, Jacques · Vita was more valuable alive than dead.

"Golden Yuanbao, we're almost done here, what do you say?"

After tidying up the mess, Mingxi finally looked at Golden Yuanbao, who was surrounded by the Flying Owls.

At this moment, the group of large and small Flying Owls were staring intently at Golden Yuanbao.

Their gazes were very much like elementary school students admiring dinosaur fossils in a museum.
