I, the leader of the esoteric sect, am doing great things in the infinite world!

Vanessa stared blankly at Li Lin, her eyes gradually becoming dazed.

Li Lin snapped his fingers.

Patronus.

A silver-white Dementor Guardian appeared out of thin air, its silver-white veil draped over Vanessa's entire body, enveloping her completely. At that moment, there seemed to be a small, explosive sound.

That was an invisible technique that Roland left in Vanessa's mind.

Vanessa stood there blankly, all her movements ceasing after the invisibility spell was temporarily blocked, like a puppet with its strings cut.

It's obvious that this invisible technique isn't particularly sophisticated, or perhaps Roland simply doesn't care.

The superhumans of the Moth type can make the brainwashing process even more subtle and meticulous, just like the Black Serpent Koschke in the past. As long as they have the slightest identification with him, they will immediately become the new Black Serpent.

A purge person with no real power doesn't need to use any more profound knowledge. A night of terror, a shockwave that can distort the mind, is enough to suppress her original rebellious spirit and reshape her personality into whatever she wants.

This was likely just something Roland did on a whim.

Not all liquidators are to be feared; some established esoteric sects look down on this force that roams freely in the mystical and waking worlds.

Moreover, not all liquidators are Defour.

Perhaps to Roland and Defour, such a woman was nothing more than trash that could be discarded at will.

Li Lin glanced at Vanessa and realized that she couldn't become his subordinate believer like Lester.

The description of her on the dark green desktop was only one sentence.

The overwhelming sensory experience has eroded her mind; she will soon become a pathetic madwoman.

This is understandable. Roland destroyed a part of her personality, but he wanted to play with some kind of romance, so he didn't completely destroy it. Even now, Vanessa is still able to instinctively ask Li Lin for help.

No, perhaps it wasn't instinct either. Roland deliberately preserved these traits, perhaps to see what other struggles Vanessa could make.

She thought she was actively seeking an opportunity to break free from Roland, but little did she know that it was all a drama orchestrated by someone else, and she was the puppet on stage, bound by threads and dancing gracefully.

How sad.

310 It's all because Kill the Spire was too fun last night.

"The soul leaves the body."

Li Lin stretched out his palm and used his soul to open Vanessa's mind. Although most of the things were empty, images that Roland had fabricated and put in, a few memories remained, like seashells that could be seen by chance on a gray beach.

This is not hard to understand, since Vanessa still has some use, so the remaining bit of consciousness can still guide her daily life.

Li Lin's thoughts drifted into contemplation as Vanessa's fragmented memories flashed through his mind.

He closed his eyes, and those fragmented images flashed through his mind.

A purgeist, left behind by the organization, wants to take advantage of the former governor's absence during his return home to completely destabilize Algiers and seize control of the local situation.

A face belonging to Roland appeared before them, radiating a light that made one unconsciously want to join his ranks—

When I came to my senses, I found myself lying in bed, with a document next to my pillow.

Ultimately, there were no suspicious signs, and Roland wouldn't leave any trace that could expose his identity.

But Li Lin had already started to smile.

Master Li doesn't need any evidence to take action against someone.

If I say I'll blow up Algiers, then I'll blow up Algiers!

Li Lin withdrew his hand, capturing the image and memories he had previously left in Vanessa's mind.

Vanessa, unaware of what had happened, suddenly felt sleepy. After rubbing her eyes, the feeling disappeared, and she became awake again.

The man before me was still the same one with black hair and black eyes.

Seeing that Vanessa wanted to repeat her question to pad the word count, Li Lin quickly stopped this clueless behavior.

He can handle this kind of work all by himself; no one else should try to steal his business.

"Then do you think I can still..." Although she had already given up hope, Vanessa couldn't help but ask.

For the previous twenty years of her life, she either lived as a puppet without her own will under the shadow of the purgers, or had her self erased by a stranger governor through extraordinary means... Yet, her remaining instincts still managed to utter the plea for survival under her disguised personality.

No matter how humble.

“Your condition is too serious. I’ve done my best,” Li Lin said as he stood up from behind his desk.

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Lin did a backflip on the spot: "Ignore it!"

After landing safely, Li Lin looked at Vanessa sincerely and said, "Although I couldn't do anything funny for you, I've already done something funny for you."

Vanessa stared at Li Lin in astonishment. Even her simulated self was momentarily stunned when she saw Li Lin like this.

What do you mean by "I couldn't do anything for you, but I still did something for you"?

Vanessa struggled to find the right words: "So, you mean...?"

She felt that she could still be saved.

"Go back and wait for news." Vanessa finally heard the man in front of her say this. Unlike the others, he didn't give a refusal. "I will give you an answer in a week."

"Thank you, thank you..."

Vanessa felt a wave of relief wash over her, and tears welled up in her eyes without her noticing.

She didn't know why she was crying, but she just couldn't control this indescribable emotion.

"Leicester, see the guest out."

The silent man waiting outside opened the door and came in. When he saw Vanessa's appearance, he said nothing, but simply made a gentle "please" gesture.

Vanessa obediently walked out the door.

Lester looked up, intending to briefly greet Li Lin about the matter, but saw Li Lin sitting behind his desk, his eyes, which had somehow changed from deep black to lifeless, mostly black-and-white, fish-like eyes.

It's hard to say whether Li Lin has really undergone such a strange change, but it just gives Lester the feeling that his art style has changed.

Realizing things were going badly, Lester turned and ran without saying a word.

But as Lu Xun said: If you let Li Lin go, Li Lin will not let you go.

Li Lin followed Lester to the gate, and just as he was about to do something, he saw a group of suspicious people outside his garden wall, doing something he didn't know.

Lester turned around and saw Li Lin standing a few centimeters behind him, and his breath stopped.

God knows how terrifying this is, especially for Li Lin.

Li Lin snapped out of his reverie and stared at Lester expressionlessly: "What do you think of me now?"

This was a poker face he had painstakingly managed to put on, commonly known as the "Sima face," and it was incredibly difficult for Li Lin to achieve.

What's up?

What kind of evaluation does he want to hear?

Just as Lester was pondering this, he heard Li Lin shake his head and mutter to himself as he left: "Forget it, an ordinary illiterate person's evaluation is not worth mentioning at all."

Lester was stunned and stood there for more than ten seconds. Just as he was about to refute the claim that he also had a college degree, he realized that Li Lin had already walked away.

He wasn't even given a chance to explain himself.

......

"Won't we get arrested by the patrol officers on the street if we do this?" Xingti asked Nian Tuanzi, who was lying in Weierting's arms. It was Nian who came up with the idea of ​​having them squat by the roadside.

Considering that Nian is also someone who thrives on chaos, if Virtin and Xingti were wise, they shouldn't trust her.

Unfortunately, after being manipulated for so long, even the usually calm and rational Virtin sometimes makes foolish mistakes in front of the New Year.

"In fact, yes."

Virtue walked over from the nearby intersection, calmly waving the parking ticket in his hand, followed by two patrol officers.

They've been squatting here for so long, even a fool would realize something's up. The reason no one's bothered them is because Virtue managed to fend off the patrol officers' questioning.

There's no such thing as a peaceful and tranquil life; it's just that the content is suspected of being illegal.

Although they wouldn't suffer the same misfortune as the exiles, being sent to the police station by Li Lin, they still had to pay a fine.

Xingti looked at Virtin with a nervous expression and lowered his voice: "But we don't have any money!"

“It’s alright, Li Lin has it.” Virtue appeared very calm. “Besides, the patrolman is here too, he’ll open the door.”

Li Lin, who was hiding nearby, thought it was impossible.

No one can take his money away, no one.

The two patrol officers felt someone tap them on the shoulder. When they saw Li Lin, they didn't say anything because they didn't know him.

But when they saw Lester behind Li Lin, their expressions immediately became obsequious and fawning, because their superior, the patrol captain, had said that from today onwards, Lester was their superior.

Lester was standing right behind Li Lin at that moment.

What are your orders?

Upon hearing the sound, Virtue turned her head and saw Li Lin casting a malicious glance at them.

A sense of unease rose in Virtin's heart. Just as she was about to say something, she saw Li Lin wave to them, and then two patrolmen pounced on them like wolves, trying to drag them away.

The exiles have gone in, so don't even think about escaping!
