Chapter 289

"Bring back the ones that look better?"

Ryu's expression suddenly became subtle: "I didn't expect you to have a monster fetish."

"Ryu, this is your prejudice."

Lin Que shook his head slightly: "As long as they look good enough, is this kind of thing really important?"

"Compared to those warriors who directly screw cats, dogs, and lizards, I think my XP is quite normal."

"I'm afraid you're the only one who would think that."

"That's not necessarily true."

Lin Que raised his head and looked at the elf girl walking in from outside the door.

"Phryne Jamil, do you think my XP is normal?"

"Being able to accept an elf like me who has been corrupted, and even extending a helping hand to help, Lord Lin Que's noble character goes without saying."

Blood dripped continuously from the edge of her clothes, and Phryne Jamil, who looked like she had swum a lap in a pool of blood, replied.

"It is their honor that those monsters can be favored by Lord Lin Que, I don't think Lord Lin Que's hobbies are a problem."

Ryu: "???"

What's the situation? Has this Phryne Jamil been brainwashed?

"What did you do to her?"

Withdrawing her gaze from Phryne Jamil, Ryu fully carried forward the spirit of asking if she didn't understand, and looked at Lin Que to the North North North Side.

"How did she become like this after not seeing her for a while?"

If Ryu's memory wasn't wrong, the last time she and Phryne Jamil met was just over an hour ago.

Clearly, when they first met at the Demeter Familia, Phryne Jamil looked lifeless, like a machine that was close to being scrapped.

How did it only take an hour for the other party to change like a different person, directly becoming Lin Que's fanatical follower.

"Could it be that you took a liking to her power, so you used some special ability to brainwash her."

"Shut up! You guy who doesn't know anything!"

Phryne Jamil glared at Ryu: "Lord Lin Que not only gave me a new life, but also gave me the opportunity to kill my enemy with my own hands!"

"You don't understand anything, so don't talk nonsense there!"

"New life?"

A flash of realization flashed in Ryu's eyes.

Just like she resurrected for the Astraea Familia, and Alfia resurrected for the sake of treating her illness and her sister.

The Phryne Jamil in front of her probably also had some unspeakable hidden difficulties and received Lin Que's help.

As a sufferer with similar experiences, Ryu understood the joy of being helped and finding a way out of a desperate situation.

If Phryne Jamil's personality was even more extreme, it wasn't impossible for her to become like this.

"Sorry, I said the wrong thing just now."

"......Be careful next time."

Not expecting Ryu to apologize directly, Phryne Jamil was stunned for a moment but didn't pursue it too much, looking at Lin Que.

"Lord Lin Que, my business is all done, may I ask if you have anything you need me to do?"

"If not, I'll go back to the surface to fight for you, and take down all those guys who are still putting up a desperate resistance."

"You don't need to take action."

Lin Que shook his head slightly: "When I first came to the Knossos, I had already sent Alfia out."

Coupled with the Hephaestus Familia, Apollo Familia, and other affiliated Familias that also started to take action, the surface must be in a mess.

If I throw Phryne Jamil, who is too motivated, up there now, Orario might explode completely.

Lin Que's goal is to rule Orario and transform this place into his own amusement park, not to destroy it.

"The number of people thrown into the battlefield now is just right."

"Next, we just need to wait for tomorrow to come, and then harvest everything in one go."

"Before that, you just follow me for now."

"Yes."

"Alright, it's about time for me to leave too."

Lin Que looked at Ryu to the North North North Side: "The follow-up work will be left to the Astraea Familia to solve."

"When the Knossos matter is all resolved, you and Alise and the others go to the Dungeon and deal with the Xenos matter."

"I will get it done as soon as possible."

Ryu nodded slightly: "However... if the other party refuses to surrender, I can't guarantee that I can select the good-looking Xenos you mentioned."

"Do you have any targets you like? Or just give a standard for good-looking."

"Just follow your own aesthetics."

Lin Que replied: "Keep the ones you think look good, and deal with the ones that don't."

Ryu cautiously asked one more question: "What if I think none of them look good?"

"If none of them look good, then naturally kill them all."

A smile appeared on Lin Que's face: "However, as the price for not bringing back satisfactory results, then Ryu, you will have to replace the missing Xenos to play with me."

Ryu: "......"

It seems I have no choice but to work hard.

After telling Ryu the location of the Xenos' strongholds in the Dungeon, Lin Que didn't stay in the Knossos any longer.

Casually pulling out a space gate, Lin Que directly took Phryne Jamil and returned to the former Apollo Familia mansion.

"Hmm?"

Demeter, who had been sitting in the living room in a daze after being 'tied' back by Alise, came back to her senses.

Looking at the two who suddenly appeared, she was stunned for a moment, then her gaze fell directly on the elf behind Lin Que.

"Phryne Jamil?"

Phryne Jamil, who also didn't expect to see Demeter as soon as she landed, was silent for two seconds and nodded at her: "It's me."

"What's the situation?"

Attacked by the other party an hour ago, and even Familia members died on the spot.

Even if Demeter was magnanimous, seeing Phryne Jamil at this moment, she couldn't help but frown.

Looking at Lin Que to the North North North Side, Demeter threw away the self-introduction she had originally prepared and directly asked a question.

"Isn't Phryne Jamil Dionysus's person? Why is she acting together with you."

"Because I persuaded Phryne Jamil."

Lin Que smiled and sat down opposite Demeter: "In fact, she had been used by Dionysus all along."

"After my persuasion, she has now turned over a new leaf and chosen to pledge loyalty to me."

"......Used, you say."

Glancing at Phryne Jamil, who was dodging her gaze to the North North North Side, Demeter, as a god, could probably tell that Lin Que wasn't lying.

At this very moment, Phryne Jamil was indeed holding a certain amount of apology toward her.

"I roughly understand the process, but the children of my Familia might not be able to accept this statement."

From a god's perspective, a person dying is just starting a new life.

But in the eyes of ordinary people, a person dying means eternal separation, never to be seen again.

· ·········· ·······

"Those children all have good relationships, if there isn't a good handling plan, it's better not to let them meet."

"That's not a big problem."

Lin Que casually took out a ball of light and tossed it twice in front of Demeter.

"The soul of that dead Familia member of yours was intercepted by me before going to the Heaven Realm."

"I'll just mold a body for him later and stuff him in, and he can be perfectly resurrected."

"......Although I've heard from Alise that you haven't self-sealed, I didn't expect it to be true."

Demeter's expression became a bit complicated: "Cheating so openly, there will be problems, right?"
