The life-or-death crisis compelled her to tell the absolute truth, not daring to hide a single detail.
After all, she wasn’t the only one who knew this; the other five were all aware.
After hearing this, Lin Qi turned to look at Wei Yue.
Wei Yue’s expression soured.
"Sir, I didn’t sense such an aura. I suspect it’s the work of other original Moon Worshipers."
Wei Yue imdiately told Lin Qi what she had sensed, terrified he would think she was hiding sothing.
Hearing this, Lin Qi fell into thought.
’The difference between the original Moon Worshipers and these later converts seems to be imnse.’
’First, they can simulate the aura of the Blood Moon. Then, they can hear strange whispers. On top of that, they can also create Blood Moon Descent Objects.’
While Lin Qi was deep in thought, all the Moon Worshipers, including Wei Yue, remained deathly silent. No one dared to make a sound, terrified of provoking him.
"Sir, I have a way to investigate the situation to the south. If you allow to create a new Blood Moon Descent Object, I can try to draw out the Blood Moon’s aura, assess the general situation, and maybe even ’see’ so images."
Wei Yue imdiately thought of a way to make ands.
Lin Qi asked, "Is this one of your Abilities? When did you get it?"
A look of confusion flickered across Wei Yue’s face before she quickly replied, "Just now, when I was emotionally stirred, I suddenly heard whispers, and then new knowledge appeared in my mind. It’s a power I just received."
Wei Yue wasn’t lying. The whispers of the Blood Moon always ca to her without any warning.
"Just now?"
Lin Qi’s Spiritual Vision had been active the entire ti, yet from the mont he arrived at the building, he hadn’t sensed any unusual energy signatures.
’How on earth do these original Moon Worshipers obtain their knowledge and power?’
’Whatever the thod, this power is beyond my comprehension. It must be a very High-Tier technique.’
He couldn’t figure it out for the ti being, but Lin Qi agreed to Wei Yue’s request anyway.
Lin Qi had co here today precisely to have the Moon Worshipers restart production of Blood Moon Descent Objects to satisfy his own need for Extraordinary Materials.
Looking at the five Moon Worshipers kneeling in a row, Lin Qi turned back to Wei Yue. "If I’m not here, how many of them can you suppress while guaranteeing your own safety?"
As soon as he said this, the faces of the five Moon Worshipers changed drastically.
’He’s going to kill soone...’
But even so, suppressed by Lin Qi’s Spiritual Power at such close range, not a single Moon Worshiper dared to rise and resist.
Wei Yue thought for a mont before answering, "Three. Against those of the sa tier, I can suppress three."
Wei Yue understood Lin Qi’s intention.
Since there was a rebellion, soone had to die.
Killing just one was far from enough. Even a grueso death wouldn’t be enough to intimidate the others.
Killing half of them—that was the right number.
"Three, hmm?" Lin Qi looked at the Moon Worshiper who had answered his first question. "Then out of the five of you, which three do you think I should let live?"
Lin Qi was putting the pressure directly on the Moon Worshipers themselves.
No matter her choice, the three survivors would never be able to trust one another again.
Having survived in the Cyber World for so long, Lin Qi had naturally learned a trick or two.
Instantly, all eyes focused on her.
No one wanted to die. The eyes of the other four were filled with desperate pleading.
The room fell silent for a long ti. After about a minute, a list of three nas was slowly spoken.
Naturally, her own na was on the list.
Lin Qi’s gaze fell upon the two who weren’t on the list.
The power of Blood Manipulation activated instantly. Terror and a desperate desire to live filled their eyes.
But beneath that, there was also a deep resentnt.
’Why?’
’Why wasn’t I on the list?’
’By what right!’
POP! POP!
Two consecutive pops echoed—the sound of heads being violently burst by blood.
"AH!"
"I don’t want to die..."
The two red-faced Moon Worshipers who hadn’t been on the list frantically felt at their own heads.
They felt a warm spray on their faces.
A fluid—a mixture of blood and brain matter—was splattered across their faces.
Their eyes filled with terror and confusion.
’I’m not dead?’
The two slowly turned their heads to survey their surroundings.
There, on the floor, lay two fresh corpses, their heads blown apart.
It was the two whose nas had just been on the list.
As for the female Moon Worshiper who had read out the list, she was now staring blankly at the scene around her.
What had Lin Qi done?
He had killed two of the people on her list, allowing the two who now resented her to survive.
And before letting them live, he had used his Blood Manipulation to make them experience the ultimate terror of imminent death.
Now, these three would never band together to rebel again.
If any one of them even considered rebellion, another would surely report them to Wei Yue.
These were the thods Lin Qi had honed in the Cyber World.
It was ruthless and inhumane, but brutally effective.
Standing beside Lin Qi, Wei Yue felt a chill run down her spine.
’So this is the Blood Moon Envoy?’
’Judging by the atmosphere at the Mo University Camp, you would never guess Lin Qi had such a ruthless side.’
’It wasn’t until today, with the Moon Worshipers’ rebellion, that I’ve had the chance to witness his thods firsthand.’
Lin Qi ignored the three Moon Worshipers still kneeling on the floor.
He looked at Wei Yue and gave his instructions. "Have them start creating new Blood Moon Descent Objects. We’ve built new funnel-shaped cent pools in the camp. Ask Wang Ziru for the exact location. You’ll use three pools to create the objects. Once they’re done, keep one for yourself to activate your new Ability. Shatter the others imdiately and bring the pieces to . I have another use for them."
After giving his orders, Lin Qi left.
He went straight back to the Club Activity Building to find Wang Ziru.
"Boss, you have an assignnt for ?"
The mont Wang Ziru saw Lin Qi, he knew there was work to be done.
"Assemble a small team to make a trip to the Hongshan Rescue Team. Make sure they et with Ding Yang. Tell him that a suspected Blood Moon Descent Object has appeared roughly two hundred kiloters south of Modu. The source of this intel is to remain confidential, but it’s highly likely to be accurate."
Lin Qi was sending soone to pass the intelligence to the Dragon Country authorities.
The Mo University Camp didn’t have the reach to operate two hundred kiloters away, and the Hongshan Camp lacked the strength to handle it on its own.
The only ones who could deal with this matter were the Dragon Country authorities.
After all, two hundred kiloters was still far too close for comfort for the Mo University Camp.
If a Tier Four Monster or a true Blood Moon Envoy were to erge at that distance, it would be bad news for Lin Qi.
Any crisis that broke out there could easily spill over and affect Modu.
After all, with Modu’s vast population and huge number of Zombies, it was a very promising petri dish.
"Understood!"
Wang Ziru imdiately set about making the arrangents.
As for Lin Qi, he took so freshly prepared materials from the Sixth Dining Hall and headed to the Pharmacy Laboratory.
It had been built using the limited resources of the Doomsday World. To a Pharmaceutical Researcher from the Cyber World, it was incredibly crude and completely inadequate for supporting proper research.
Let alone using it to develop new Potions.
But Lin Qi had his Spiritual Vision, which could substitute for the vast majority of the Pharmacy equipnt from the Cyber World.
In fact, the images Lin Qi "saw" were even more intuitive than the feedback from any instrunt.
Under these conditions, developing a Potion was countless tis easier for Lin Qi than for an ordinary Pharmaceutical Researcher.
Xia Chu happened to be in the lab, deep in ditation. When she saw Lin Qi enter with a load of materials, she imdiately asked, "Is there anything I can do to help?"
Lin Qi nodded. While researching a new type of Potion wasn’t difficult for him, an extra pair of hands would make the process much smoother.
"Today, I’m going to research and develop an L-Class Potion—a Tier Two physical enhancent Potion."
"My physical attributes are about to hit the Tier One Limit. I need to create a High-Tier Potion to increase my body’s strength even further."
