Linda's body trembled uncontrollably, her teeth clenched tightly on her lower lip, suppressing the fear in her heart and the anger at being discovered.
As a healing-type superhuman, she was a physician favored by the elite. Even though she was an S-level superhuman, she had rarely been on the battlefield.
Because of this, she didn't understand that in this place, power was the absolute authority.
She couldn't comprehend why Qi Yuan would act without hesitation, not considering gathering evidence or international disputes. Meanwhile, Smith stood by watching, showing no intention of offering help.
He's a devil! Everyone is just his toy!
At this moment, she recalled Johnson's assessment of Qi Yuan.
She avoided everyone's gaze, her eyes downcast, muttering incessantly.
"You have no evidence... you have no evidence..."
While not wanting to be a laughingstock as Qi Yuan wished, she still desperately wanted to live, clinging to this last straw of hope.
"Your joke is too boring. If that's the case, you might as well go meet the King of Hell. Hmm... I think it's Satan in Bitford. It's all the same, you won't actually meet either of them anyway."
Qi Yuan raised his hand, resting his chin on it.
"Get one thing straight, this isn't a courtroom, it's a stage."
He silently added in his mind.
Of course, this is my stage, what does it have to do with a mere prop?
Not being a courtroom meant Qi Yuan had no intention of discussing evidence with her.
His words completely nullified Linda's last hope, causing her psychological defenses to crumble entirely. She knew there was no escaping death today.
Linda's eyes were bloodshot, her once meticulously styled blonde hair now disheveled and dull, reflecting her mood. Her entire being radiated an aura of despair.
She burst into laughter, a sound that was part laugh, part cry, gradually becoming shrill.
Qi Yuan couldn't help but lean back tactically. This hothouse flower's psychological resilience was indeed poor. She was the one who had schemed and been discovered, yet she was acting as if he had wronged an innocent person.
If you're going to play dirty tricks, be prepared to face the consequences when you're caught.
Why hasn't she reached the cursing and threatening stage yet?
He knew that she was now an avatar of the monster. Based on the monster's thoughts he had heard, if he wasn't mistaken, as long as the Corpse-Eating Queen Bee was willing to consume domain energy, she could be revived.
Using this topic, he could naturally compare his strength to that of the Corpse-Eating Queen Bee.
If he couldn't hear thoughts, he would have suspected Linda was deliberately stalling for time.
Just as he was considering whether to provoke Linda further, she finally began to speak recklessly, driven by fear and panic.
"You hypocritical devil!"
Her restrained body leaned slightly forward, her face contorted with madness. Her exaggerated Caucasian features amplified her expression to the extreme, her crazed smile stretching her mouth wide open, somewhat resembling a slit-mouthed woman.
"Aren't we the same kind of people?"
"I don't understand what right you have to judge me? You're just looking for an opportunity to toy with others, aren't you?"
"Ha, you disregard the lives of everyone in New York City, just to enjoy my ugly state. How are you any different from me?"
"Hypocrite! You should go meet Satan too!"
The faces of Smith and the other three changed drastically, wishing they could cover Linda's mouth.
What a joke, if Qi Yuan were to completely unleash himself, they would be in trouble.
"Stop talking nonsense!"
"Traitor, God will not forgive you."
"People won't believe your lies."
"You deserve to die!"
Jeanna and Smirnov wiped cold sweat from their brows, relieved that they could understand each other within the domain, otherwise they would have been implicated by this woman.
Qi Yuan sat on his throne, unmoved by Linda's words.
Since you know New York City is in dire straits, you should know that every tree... no, every human needs protection, so get to the point.
It's not like it's a dead end, have you forgotten about the resurrection armor?
Is her mind unclear, or... could it be that the Corpse-Eating Queen Bee didn't tell her?
This won't do, he needed to find a chance to remind her.
"I welcome others to be like me, as long as they can defeat me."
Faced with Linda's accusations, he had no desire to argue with her.
He wasn't crazy, there was no point in explaining to a madwoman trying to drag him down that rescue and harm were two different things. Even if he were Jesus reincarnated, it would be useless.
"But I'm curious, who gave you the confidence to speak so boldly in front of me when your life is in my hands?"
Qi Yuan saw that Linda wanted to spit at him and curse loudly, so he quickly moved his finger slightly, using the mist to force Linda to look up.
Hearing Linda's thoughts, he knew she had no intention of following his lead.
If you can't speak properly, then just keep quiet and let him handle it.
"I almost forgot."
Qi Yuan looked directly into Linda's eyes, "You're no longer human now. As an avatar of that insect, you can be revived as long as it's willing."
Forced to look directly into those brilliant golden eyes, Linda was momentarily dazed until she heard the last sentence.
Linda's pupils contracted, her face showing shock, clearly unaware of this fact.
Terror and the joy of a last-minute reprieve intertwined, making her thoughts sound chaotic and indistinguishable.
Qi Yuan listened for a while before understanding that her deal with the monster was to turn her into a monster and allow her to seek refuge within its domain.
After becoming a monster, she would no longer age, achieving a form of longevity.
The Corpse-Eating Queen Bee hadn't told her that becoming its avatar meant becoming part of it, and thus able to revive within the domain.
"Since you know, what are you waiting for?"
Linda tilted her head back, a faint smile tugging at the corners of her mouth, "You haven't killed me or those monsters because we'll revive in that monster's domain after being killed. Currently, humans have no way to deal with SSS-Level Monsters. As long as it evolves, I will become immortal. What about you?"
If it weren't for the need to keep up the act, he really wanted to say, "With that stiff smile, who are you trying to fool?"
Although Qi Yuan felt like a veteran actor facing an amateur's performance, the show had to go on.
He laughed as if he had heard something amusing, "Right, I don't even care whether that insect evolves or not, yet I'm worried about you all reviving."
"I take back what I said about you being boring. You're truly too clever."
After speaking, he looked up into the distance, nodding with a smile as if greeting some creature.
"He's discovered me!"
Faced with Qi Yuan's greeting, the Corpse-Eating Queen Bee moved its insect legs, retreating two steps, then feeling that being frightened like this was undignified, it moved back to its original position.
"Being discovered is being discovered, it's normal for me to watch him causing trouble in my domain."
Though it thought this way, its behavior of once again sensing Qi Yuan's location through the domain betrayed a hint of caution.
"Most humans never considered the existence of such monsters before the incident in Sanzu. So, what about the monsters?"
The Corpse-Eating Queen Bee felt a chill down its spine upon hearing these words, a path it had never considered before.
No, if these inferior humans had the ability to deal with SSS-Level Monsters, they would have already acted against that ugly, barbaric thing.
But...
Is this guy normal?
