and they could be upgraded anytime by hunting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After instructing a Beetle to take this Fungus Umbrella back, Bai Yi began to contemplate ways to enhance the giant banyan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When it came to other enhancements, Bai Yi had some ideas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as for how to strengthen the giant banyan, she truly had no clue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After pondering for a long time without moving, Bai Yi decided to abandon thinking and see what all the genes could do for the giant tree first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Check the gene compatibility level before planning further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>White Poplar City City Center, Su’s Sanctuary\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zero, am I really doing the right thing here…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Second Young Master Su stood on a small balcony on the second floor of a community building, looking down at the thousands of soldier types below, his voice slightly hoarse, losing the confidence he usually had.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sunlight slanted across his body, but he didn’t feel a trace of warmth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the shadow behind him, Zero placed a gentle hand on the shoulder of the Second Young Master Su, a mysterious gleam flickering in her eyes as she leaned her mouth close to his ear, whispering softly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course, Young Master Su, isn’t this the plan you thought of…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if you sell the food, it will be wasted, better to put it to good use and convert it into combat power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By doing this, not only can you reap sufficient benefits in this week’s challenges, but also allocate part of the forces to eliminate that damned Fan Mao…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Haven’t we already located him…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thousands of blue soldier types, enough to crush everything…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you transfer ownership to me, Young Master Su, you can avoid exposure on the leaderboard, and I can surprise Fan Mao with an unexpected attack…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fan Mao dared to oppose you, he deserves to die…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you just hand everything over to me…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recruit soldiers with Fan Mao’s food and kill him…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I can handle everything for you…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zero’s seductive voice echoed in Su’s mind, layer upon layer, making it hard to discern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that voice seemed to possess some kind of magic, as if all thoughts slowed and thickened under its resonance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a spider weaving its web, ensnaring the prey with silk threads, tightly binding, leaving nothing but an unresponsive body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course, I will give, I will hand over all the units here to you…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I will guard the territory and complete the challenge…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A fleeting struggle flickered in Su’s gaze, but under Zero’s soothing influence, he finished his sentence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zero squinted her eyes, her hands moving more gently, pressing softly on Su’s temples, seemingly to relax him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quickly, Su’s gaze turned vacant again, staring dumbly below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zero sensed the changes on the panel, feeling the connection between her and the thousand soldier types below, letting out a light laugh as she released the Second Young Master Su, the magic power radiance in her eyes fading away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“She actually still struggled a bit, but today’s result is acceptable, with all those resources and troops, the harvest was quite good.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heh, he thought her ability was merely to weaken enemies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he knew not that her true talent was to charm, to manipulate the soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was indeed grateful to have found that wooden figure in the basement of the rundown villa after arriving here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she hadn’t checked everything carefully at that time, she would never have thought that the most valuable thing was an old, worn wooden figure with an unrecognizable face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This allowed her to awaken such a powerful talent when establishing her territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, this control ability was only so powerful against humans, especially the opposite gender.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When facing other women, her talent’s effect was weakened, akin to those monsters, only able to diminish some attributes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, she wouldn’t have traveled miles to deliver herself to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What a pity, having already offended Fan Mao on the channel, otherwise he might have been the best choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Anonymous will do…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zero thought to herself, taking slow steps backward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thus, everything is set in place.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faceless: A secret faith existing before the end of the world, valuing the fulfillment and strength of the soul, believing that the world is
