Chapter 694: 694 Appearance, Conspiracy, The Ancestor of Poison! [2nd Update]

Yeh Xingli held his breath and mouthed silently, "Sister YN, is this..."

"Yes." Ye Wanlan’s eyes narrowed further, and she also silently replied, "Although once they step onto land, they will be just like humans, as long as they don’t actively expose themselves, no one can discover their presence."

It was a woman with a graceful figure and a very exquisite and pretty face, with long golden hair, who truly looked like a human.

But Ye Wanlan clearly saw a patch of blue scales appear on her hand, fleeting and soon disappearing, leaving only normal skin.

Wherever she walked, all the surveillance malfunctioned, leaving only a bright white glow on the screens.

In the woman’s hand was a twenty-centimeter-high glass container, inside which a green liquid flowed, resembling a snake’s eyes.

Yeh Xingli immediately recognized that the woman was holding the device that sealed the DS virus!

Ye Wanlan didn’t need to ask and already judged: "Sure enough, it’s the handiwork of the Atlantians."

If the Atlantians could infiltrate Shenzhou, then the Global Center, as today’s center of world economy, culture, and technology, would undoubtedly also be a target for them.

Yeh Xingli couldn’t help but tremble: "Is there someone inside the institute colluding with outsiders?!"

No matter the internal strife within the institute, it was still a matter of humans themselves.

But once it involved the Atlantians, the implications were entirely different.

Moreover, even those of the same race may not share the same heart.

If they are not of our race, their hearts will be different!

"I’m afraid it’s not just the International Strategic Studies Institute." Ye Wanlan contemplated, "There are also Shenzhou University, the Wanguo Group, the World’s First Bank, the Supernatural Affairs Office, and the four top families."

She casually mentioned all the highest powers of the Global Center.

Yeh Xingli’s pupils dilated: "S-Sister YN, you’re joking, right?"

"No, I’m not joking, I’m very serious." Ye Wanlan said lightly, "Perhaps there is also—"

Yeh Xingli’s heart sank as he slowly uttered three words: "Heaven-reaching, Tower!"

"Correct." Ye Wanlan smiled, "Apart from Little Keli, none of you have seen the Sky Tower Master. Since the Atlantians look just like us, who can confirm that the Sky Tower Master is human?"

Yeh Xingli’s mind was in chaos, and he grabbed his hair, sinking into anxiety.

If Ye Wanlan’s assumptions were true, wouldn’t it mean that the establishment of the Global Center was a conspiracy?

It should be known that the foremost premise for the establishment of the Global Center was because of the demise of the Ning Dynasty, and countless heroes of Shenzhou perished.

Stepping on the corpses of Shenzhou brought about today’s Global Center.

At this moment, the woman glanced around, then raised the glass container high, intending to smash it to the ground.

"Sister YN, this is bad!" Yeh Xingli exclaimed, "She’s going to release the virus!"

If the DS virus really spreads, the lives of eight thousand people would be truly lost!

At the same moment he spoke, his heartbeat faltered, and it was caught by the woman.

"Daring to tail me?" The woman laughed in anger, "Courting death!"

"Whoosh—swoosh!"

An arrow of water formed in the air, or rather an arrow transformed from some liquid, speeding directly toward Yeh Xingli.

The woman’s movements were quick, but Ye Wanlan’s reaction was even faster.

She pushed Yeh Xingli aside with a palm, then rolled on the ground to avoid the woman’s attack.

"Oh? Two people?" The woman turned around, registering the faces of Ye Wanlan and Yeh Xingli, drawing out her tone, "And two People of Shenzhou?"

Yeh Xingli did not refute.

His ancestors were purebred People of Shenzhou.

Even if he grew up in the Global Center, his heart always yearned for Shenzhou.

"Oh—? You want to stop me from releasing poison?" The woman raised an eyebrow, "But I recall, this poison was brought back by your own kind, so releasing it should suit your intentions."

Yeh Xingli clenched his fists.

This was his first direct encounter with an Atlantian, and he felt unprecedented pressure.

He came in a hurry, armed only with a laser gun.

"But stopping me won’t do you any good," the woman sneered with a half-smile, "It’s a pity, this isn’t just any old Jianghu poison of Shenzhou from centuries ago, but a Genetic Poison."

Ye Wanlan’s eyes remained calm.

She knew well what a Genetic Poison was, having researched it herself.

After the lifetime of Princess Yongning, in another high-tech world she ventured into, she also researched such things.

Ye Wanlan had thought, perhaps when civilization reaches a certain height, the inventions in every world become similar.

Because the progress of civilization never changes.

From the ancient antiquities to the archaic and medieval ages, until history turns wholly into myth.

From old imperial power to modern technology, humanity continues to explore the truth of this world.

But is the truth really what humanity desires?

"Hmph, People of Shenzhou, you are not who you were three hundred years ago." The woman cast them an arrogant glance, "You Shenzhou people love to play heroes, you should learn from the younger generation of the Global Center, to sacrifice and abandon freely."

Ye Wanlan still remained silent.

She just stared at the glass container in the woman’s hand, estimating the success rate of seizing it without allowing any leakage of the DS virus.

Perhaps with her current capability, she could defeat this Atlantian, but to ensure no leakage of the DS virus, she dared not gamble.

"Alright, no time to chat with you further." The woman raised her hand again, "Let’s witness a grand funeral together!"

Her gaze was on the glass container, but her attention was entirely on Ye Wanlan and Yeh Xingli.

If those two People of Shenzhou really snatched away the item in her hand, it would be a great humiliation.

"Oh dear, how come you didn’t invite me to join the poisonous fun?" Suddenly, a teasing voice sounded, filled with laughter, "As a professional, I would be quite displeased."

"Who?!" The woman’s expression changed, she spun around quickly, but saw no fourth person.

The defensive system at the International Strategic Studies Institute was indeed strong, with Zone N closed off, it was impossible for anyone to enter or leave.

Even she had lost contact with external water sources.

"Where are you looking?" The voice was even more mirthful, "Look up."

The woman’s eyes sharpened, instantly looking upwards.

A green-haired boy was sitting atop the head of a massive mechanical battle armor, his dangling legs swinging back and forth.

"Long time no see, Ge Ya." Iliate smiled broadly, "I thought you were dead. How come you’re not? Do you want me to help with that?"
