Chapter 1277

No... why are you still eating people?

"Rest assured, the people eaten by me won't really die!"

The Director of Pisces still hadn't responded, and Senior Amien was still outside, so Li Ang was also a bit anxious. He explained to the cleanup agents who were all confused in front of him:

"I have a... let's call it a special ability. In short, I can temporarily increase my strength through this method, and the people eaten by me can be spat out afterward, so there won't be any danger!"

"..."

"Really, I can take responsibility for my words."

Looking at the cleanup agents who were silent for a moment, with some even secretly retreating, Li Ang had no choice but to cast his gaze toward Abigail, who had a shocked expression, and asked for "reinforcements":

"Last time when we were executing an investigation mission, we encountered an extremely dangerous situation, and Senior Ruben, Senior Frankie, and Senior Mona from the Scorpio Branch were eaten by me once like this, but they are all fine now. People from the Scorpio Branch can testify for me!"

"..."

"Senior Abigail?"

"This... it seems there really is such a thing..."

Facing the skeptical gazes of the cleanup agents, Abigail couldn't help but nod stiffly and spoke up to testify:

"Because of confidentiality requirements, Ruben and the others couldn't tell me the specific details of the mission, but they did indeed return alive."

"You see, I didn't lie! I just need to temporarily eat your..."

"But their original bodies were gone."

"?"

Looking at the cleanup agents who took a step back in unison upon hearing this, Li Ang couldn't help but look at the white-clothed girl in astonishment.

At a time like this, what do you mean by mentioning this?

"I... I was just telling the truth."

Facing Li Ang's astonished gaze, Abigail instinctively took half a step back, then turned her head slightly and whispered:

"Besides, before we signed up to participate in this assessment, Director Edward felt that you might also participate, so he withheld our applications and asked us to wait for the next assessment."

"..."

"Also, before we came, the Director instructed us that if we couldn't beat you, we must admit defeat immediately and not get close to you for no reason. If... if you suddenly went crazy again and did something insane, we must find the Director of Pisces to report it immediately..."

"?!!!"

No... you damn it, didn't you say before that Edward praised me highly? Is this how he "praises" me?

Looking at the cleanup agents who, after hearing Abigail's account, all showed expressions of fear and were ready to scatter at any moment, Li Ang's cheeks couldn't help but twitch twice, and he decisively gave up the idea of solving the problem through "peaceful means."

Right now, the Director of Pisces has been silent, and Senior Amien is still outside. Every second I delay here, the probability of her having an accident will increase significantly, so...

I can only say I'm sorry!

Stepping forward half a step abruptly and grabbing Abigail's wings, Li Ang narrowed his eyes and raised his blade amidst the horrified expressions of the cleanup agents:

"I'm sorry, I'll find you to apologize after this!"

"?!"

No, brother, are you really preparing to eat now?!!!

Watching Li Ang, who had revealed his true colors and stopped acting, going into a frenzy and preparing to eat people on the spot, the cleanup agents couldn't help but feel anger rising in their hearts, and then they all...

Scattered and fled without hesitation.

It's not that we don't have courage, it's that having courage is useless right now! Before, four hundred against one, and he could easily and happily abuse us with one hand. Now he is clearly anxious and preparing to get serious. If we go up to surround him again at this time, what's the difference between that and sliding directly into his mouth?

It's... it's over!

Struggling twice without moving, and looking at Li Ang with fierce eyes in front of her, Abigail's pretty face turned pale, and a look of despair flashed in her eyes.

I regret not listening to the Director's words!

If I had listened to Director Edward's advice and hadn't been stubborn about competing with him, I wouldn't have encountered such a terrifying situation... but Director! He eats people, such a deadly thing, you should have at least mentioned it to us!

"Eh?"

Just as Li Ang was preparing to chop the six-winged roasted chicken and swallow her soul first, a childish voice full of curiosity suddenly rang in everyone's ears.

Immediately afterward, the cleanup agents who were fleeing in all directions felt their vision blur, the white, hazy sky of the dream assessment field disappeared, and that colorful, brilliant river of dreams finally entered their sight again.

"So many people~"

A young girl with braided pigtails was holding Senior Amien's hand, looking up at the panicked cleanup agents, her cute little face full of anticipation:

"Are you playing a game? Can you take Mimi with you?"

Mimi... one of the four souls of the Director of Pisces?!

Li Ang, who had seen Mimi once at the Director's office, recognized her immediately. He hurriedly released Abigail, who was full of despair, and ran quickly toward the two. However, before he could ask, Amien spoke first:

"The Director of Aquarius has been here."

"?!!!"

"He appeared suddenly, stabbed the Director of Pisces, and then threatened the Director of Pisces that he must cooperate with him, otherwise he would kill all the cleanup agents."

Damn... something really happened!

Hearing that Aquarius had actually appeared, Li Ang's expression suddenly became stern, and he asked hurriedly:

"And then?"

"Then, during the conversation with him, the Director of Pisces didn't know what she used, which made him suddenly dazed for a moment, and then she summoned a colorful phantom that directly crushed the Director of Aquarius's physical body."

Pointing to a twisted corpse not far away, Amien said uncertainly:

"I don't know exactly what happened, but the Director of Aquarius definitely didn't die. After being sneak-attacked and crushed by Your Excellency Pisces, he even had the time to smile and say goodbye to Your Excellency Pisces. But as soon as Your Excellency Pisces drove him away, she suddenly fell to the ground and turned into this appearance..."

"Hey!"

After pulling Amien's clothes with force, the young girl with braided pigtails pouted and protested with dissatisfaction:

"What do you mean by this appearance? Everyone says Mimi is very cute!"

"Ah, I'm sorry!"

Hearing the young girl's protest, Amien couldn't help but nod apologetically, then explained:

"My wording might not be very pleasant, but Your Excellency Pisces, I didn't mean anything else; I was just simply recounting the situation."

What? This little girl is actually the Director of Pisces?!

Li Ang and the others didn't avoid people during their conversation. The cleanup agents who hadn't run far due to the limitations of the venue, although they didn't understand all of their exchange, also vaguely heard the gist of it and figured out the "whereabouts" of the Director of Pisces. Four hundred-plus pairs of eyes looked over in unison.

"Oh my!"

Startled by the complex gazes of the cleanup agents, the young girl version of the Director of Pisces first let out a startled cry in a milky voice, then hid behind Li Ang, who was an "acquaintance," and pulled on his trouser leg timidly:

"Mimi is that... that what-you-call-it two sensible fish! You must listen to Mimi!"
