Chapter 236

Protein City was somewhere Snow Claw didn't know.

But the Headquarters of the Tribunal! On New Year's Day, when she called home, Luo An had told her that Lin had been transferred to the Headquarters of the Tribunal!

At that time, Snow Claw thought Lin's identity had been exposed and he had been apprehended by the Tribunal. The sudden pain Lin conveyed on New Year's Eve seemed to have an explanation, which frightened her so much that she prayed to the Mirror's Pupil for a long time again.

Then Lin complained about the noise and asked her to get down to business.

Now, with Yin Yan Sergyen saying this, Snow Claw's eyes instantly lit up, and the ferocity in her body, ready to fight the enemy, gradually faded.

"Great, great," she said excitedly, "Shall we go now?"

Yin Yan Sergyen: “?”

As a believer of the evil god, going to see the Grand Inquisitor, wouldn't she be afraid?

Why can believers of the Mirror's Pupil be so righteous and confident... Forget it.

Yin Yan Sergyen turned to his subordinate and instructed, "Note the time."

The subordinate took out a pocket watch to check the time.

Recording the time was to confirm whether the route of the rampaging test subject would change after Snow Claw teleported away.

However, after noting the time, the subordinate looked up and asked, "Inquisitor, we don't seem to have a way to determine the route of the rampaging test subject, do we?"

Even if they sent Snow Claw Kayouti away now, they wouldn't know if the rampaging test subject would follow her or not.

If it didn't follow Snow Claw, they would still need to prepare for battle.

"And we also don't know how the rampaging test subject determines Miss Snow Claw's location," another inquisitor glanced at Snow Claw and said, "Sending her to Protein City might put her beyond the rampaging test subject's perception range."

If it exceeded the perception range, the rampaging test subject couldn't find Snow Claw Kayouti and might continue swimming towards the outpost. What would they do then?

"You're right," Yin Yan Sergyen pondered, "We can't directly head to Protein City. If the rampaging test subject continues straight here, even if it changes direction later, there might be more sensitive believers of the evil god who will investigate along its original route... There's no way to avoid this. You guys work on a plan for someone coming to investigate. I'll take Miss Snow Claw to test the rampaging test subject's perception range and get her a diving suit and oxygen tank."

Someone immediately went to fetch the equipment.

Crimson Mage Can Wei was somewhat distracted. It wasn't until an inquisitor brought the diving suit and oxygen tank that she suddenly spoke, "We can track the route of the rampaging test subject."

"How so?" Yin Yan Sergyen, who was watching a subordinate help Snow Claw Kayouti put on the diving suit, turned to ask.

"The people from the Mirror's Pupil Church came to me and said their member infiltrated the ship of the Deviant Sect chasing the rampaging test subject," Crimson Mage Can Wei explained. "Through the Web of Dreams, they can determine in real-time whether the trackers of the Deviant Sect have changed direction."

Upon hearing this, one of the inquisitors muttered, "That's really nice."

The inquisitors at the outpost had already heard about a professional from the Mirror's Pupil at the Dark Sea Cave and their abilities.

Honestly, if the Dreamer wasn't a practitioner of the evil god, they would really want to recruit them into the Tribunal.

As the Grand Inquisitor, Yin Yan Sergyen also thought of various uses for the Dreamer but wouldn't express envy like her subordinates. She only nodded to Crimson Mage Can Wei.

After she left, Crimson Mage Can Wei became the only high-level professional at the outpost. She understood the meaning and nodded in response, indicating she would oversee the command.

Once everything was settled, Yin Yan Sergyen saw that Snow Claw had already put on the diving suit and equipped all the necessary parts. She then unfolded a map of the area around the Dark Sea Cave in her mind, calculated coordinates, the speed of the rampaging test subject and the trackers of the Deviant Sect, and their current positions.

After calculating, she raised her hand and snapped her fingers.

The other inquisitors saw an orange glow flash, and the mermaid teleporter and the wolf girl disappeared from the hall together.

And Snow Claw, with just a blink, found herself leaving the brightly lit outpost, being lifted by the dark, salty seawater.

She instinctively swam with her hands and legs, seeing lights not far away. It was Yin Yan Sergyen, who had also teleported over, her legs transforming into a fish tail as she turned on her diving light.

Yin Yan Sergyen made a gesture for her to wait, then disappeared from that coordinate again.

The wet mermaid returned to the outpost hall, landing without waiting for her fish tail to transform back into human legs, and looked at Crimson Mage Can Wei.

A few minutes later, Crimson Mage Can Wei, who received a message from the main body, spoke, "They've stopped."

***

"Stopped, stopped!"

Three diving ships from the Deviant Sect, using lights to communicate orders.

On the leading diving ship, the Flower Shepherd sensed the seed planted on No. 7, frowning, "She's swimming back."

"Did No. 7 regain consciousness?" another believer of the evil god asked, looking at Xiuying Bod.

Conscious? What a joke.

Although Xiuying Bod was not a researcher in the human-demon hybrid project, he had participated in the project for so long that he was very familiar with the limits of these test subjects' abilities.

When they were in a state of madness, these test subjects could still burst with bloodline power, gaining the ability to breathe underwater like a mad beast demon. If they truly regained consciousness, No. 7 wouldn't be able to swim back; she would drown first due to the inability to breathe.

So this situation definitely wasn't because No. 7 had regained consciousness.

He guessed that perhaps No. 7's target had moved?

As a demon man, Xiuying Bod could see through the Desire Vision that although No. 7 had lost her reason, she had a goal she wanted to achieve.

Now, swimming back, did it mean the target suddenly went in the opposite direction?

The person who could suddenly go in the opposite direction was—

"A teleporter..."

Xiuying Bod guessed this possibility and continued to analyze the reasons why the teleporter might have teleported in the opposite direction.

Without using the Vision of Desire, he could still sense the Teleporter's desire for them to turn back.

He pondered the Teleporter's thoughts, looking down at the map spread out on the floor of the cockpit, intending to draw a straight line from No. 7's last position outward. But just as he was about to pick up the pen, he suddenly felt a momentary confusion and forgot what he was about to do.

What was I thinking just now? Oh, right, the Teleporter.

"Why did the Teleporter become No. 7's target?" deep in his consciousness, "Yuan Sen Zebao" analyzed, "I wonder if it's a Teleporter from the Gluesmith Church or the Inquisition. If it's a Teleporter from the Inquisition... Could it be that the forces of Mirror Eye have done something?"

After all, among the current forces of Mirror Eye, there are Ritualists from the Inquisition, "Blind Book" and "Chillfire Twin Pistols"... who have close ties with the Inquisition.

"Did 'Blind Book' assign me a task and then directly dispatch the Inquisition to act together? That's why No. 7 went berserk?" "Yuan Sen Zebao" suddenly realized, "He's putting pressure on me, but at the same time giving me an opportunity. To restore the self-personality of the experimental subject, it can't be done in a crowded place like the Cave of Dark Sea."

"If that's the case, following the Teleporter's lead to pursue would be fine."

Xiu Ying Bode was still thinking when his consciousness was suppressed by "Yuan Sen Zebao."

This inner personality took control of the dog-man body again, casually responding to the members of the Aberration Sect, "No. 7 hasn't regained consciousness; her confusion is getting worse. She probably can't tell directions anymore."

"Should we wait for her to swim back?" the Shepherd of Flowers asked.

"Until the confusion is resolved, she will likely change direction multiple times," "Yuan Sen Zebao" guessed what the Teleporter would do and said, "Continue pursuing and close the distance."

The captain responded, restarting the submarine. After a few minutes of coordination, the three submarines set off again.

"Yuan Sen Zebao" controlled Xiu Ying Bode's body to sit steadily, glancing backward as if casually.

Countless desires grew like wild grass in his field of vision, one of which stood out from the others.

On the ship behind, a slave, serving as ritual material for the Aberration Sect's Ritualist, was reporting to Tadansha through the Dream Net.

"The ship has started moving again, I don't know if the direction has changed."

"The ship has started moving again," Tadansha told the Crimson Mage, "We need to wait a bit to confirm the direction."

"No rush." The Crimson Mage replied, about to say more when he suddenly sensed something and turned his head.

The slaves had no mirrors, but here, Tadansha filled a water tank to create a reflective surface.

The water originally only reflected the cave ceiling, until now, a young man with silver eyes appeared on the surface of the water.

This is...

Reacting faster than the Crimson Mage, Tadansha called out, "Master! What are your orders?"
