The Villain Saint is my secondary account

"Of course, be confident. We are the outpost's secret agents. Don't be fooled by the team's low-key attire; their status and authority are actually quite high."

Miss Mofeng smiled and patted Ye Xiao on the shoulder.

The maidservant led the two here and then took her leave. Afterwards, a girl wearing a dark blue cloak and large round-framed glasses came into the hall and took over the responsibility of leading them.

The girl, with her dark brown ponytail, introduced herself as researcher Bofu and gave Ye Xiao a brief introduction to the rules for job level evaluation.

Its format is similar to the professional level assessment of the Adventurer's Guild, but it is more detailed. It will test the test takers in various aspects such as skills, physical strength, and mental strength, and even includes written tests and psychological assessments.

The first test was a written exam similar to filling out a questionnaire. Ye Xiao sat on something that looked like an electric chair, wearing a helmet covered with brass wires, which was supposedly used to monitor the subject's emotional fluctuations to determine the reliability of his answers.

Ye Xiao didn't quite understand what this meant at first, until she saw the first question that appeared on the projection crystal, "What is your opinion on the company's philosophy?", and then she realized what this thing was for.

They even have employee values ​​management; the company really has a lot of tricks up its sleeve.

He casually wrote "I feel pretty good" and the projection crystal immediately flashed red. Researcher Bofu, who was observing from the side, reminded him, "Please answer truthfully what you really think. Don't worry, coming here means you have passed the trial and become one of us. These questions are just to help us get to know you better. No matter what you answer, it will not affect your actual rank."

Ye Xiao curled his lip; there was no way he would believe that.

Surprisingly, the emotion monitoring was quite accurate. He tried different answers like "okay," "so-so," and "not really agreeing," but none of them passed. In the end, he had no choice but to fill in his true thoughts.

"A pile of shit."

The projection crystal immediately flashed a green light.

What are your current views on the company?

"Refer to the answer to the previous question."

What are your intentions in choosing to join the company?

"To avenge my lover."

What constructive suggestions do you have for the company's planning?

"Reduce this shitty problem."

……

Ye Xiao quickly filled out the questionnaire, only glossing over some core questions about relationships and identities.

This emotion monitoring is far less detailed than the church's lie-detection maxims. It can only determine whether the person filling out the form agrees with their own answer emotionally, but it cannot completely determine whether it is true or false. It is not difficult to bypass the key information.

As for his attitude, he wasn't afraid that the company would see something from this. Not to mention that if a real problem arose, it would be Dream God who would have a headache, he was also certain that he wasn't the only one who had joined the company against his will.

Most people came in because of their stance or the generous rewards, so it would be strange if someone from Loren seemed particularly loyal.

However, Miss Bofu's expression was rather complicated when she saw Ye Xiao's answer.

While it's true that we should tell the truth, this seems a bit too frank.

After completing the questionnaire, Ye Xiao went to take the attribute and skill tests. Here, he deliberately restrained his performance, generally befitting the behavior of a master assassin with decent skills.

He also demonstrated several spells that his teammates had previously shown him, and thanks to his versatile abilities, he easily earned an excellent rating.

Finally, there was the mental and psychological assessment. Again, he had to put on a helmet full of wires, but this time there was no projection crystal. He only needed to lie on a chair surrounded by obscure runes, close his eyes, and enter meditation.

As the surrounding runes emitted a silvery glow, liquid magical energy slowly flowed into his brain through the tube.

Ye Xiao closed her eyes tightly, and her vision immediately sank into complete darkness.

Before long, he felt his body slowly float up, with a light feeling as if his soul was leaving his body, and the surroundings were no longer pitch black, but were radiating a pale white glow.

This seemed to be his mental world. After realizing it, he first looked down at his body and confirmed that he still had that tall and thin male physique before he breathed a slight sigh of relief.

His only worry was that he might suddenly transform into Ella's appearance at this moment, which would be embarrassing if he were detected.

However, it seems that even in the spiritual world, the soul manifestation of this body is still "Ye Xiao" rather than Ella.

Just as he was pondering how the company would test his mental strength, a soft call suddenly rang in his ears.

"It's a pleasure to see you again, Mr. Ye."

Ye Xiao turned around and saw a girl with short, gray curly hair floating down from above like a cloud.

The girl had a gentle smile on her face, and when she saw Ye Xiao looking at her, she waved to him affectionately.

"You're quite outgoing, treating my inner world like your own home."

Ye Xiao crossed her arms and said irritably.

The visitor was naturally the Dream God. It's no wonder Ye Xiao was annoyed; he had gone through so much trouble just to meet this riddle-solving man.

"There's no other way; this is the safest way for us to meet."

The girl didn't seem to mind Ye Xiao's rudeness and remained friendly in her words.

"But don't worry, this time we have plenty of time to talk."

Chapter 119 The Dream God's Concealment

"These words always make me feel inexplicably uneasy,"

Ye Xiao paused for a moment, then asked, "We're really just chatting, right?"

The girl floated in mid-air, cradling a fluffy white cloud, smiling without saying a word.

"alright."

Ye Xiao sat down on the ground. "So, Miss Dream Goddess, what exactly is the purpose of all this trouble you went to summon me here?"

"Oh...come to think of it, I don't think I've told you my name yet."

Instead of answering Ye Xiao's question directly, the Dream God introduced himself first.

"The title 'Goddess of Dreams' is too general. You might as well just call me Ysera, Mr. Ye Xiao."

“No problem, Miss Isera.”

Ye Xiao spread his hands. "Is this the name you were given when you were born?"

"No, this is just the name I gave myself."

Isera floated leisurely to Ye Xiao's side, raised her hand, and a few fair fingertips peeked out from the drooping wide sleeves.

Strings of translucent bubbles floated from her fingertips, swirling around Ye Xiao.

It is illuminated by colorful lights and shadows, and if you look closely, you can see that some miniature images are flashing.

"Nice names... What are these?"

Ye Xiao curiously reached out and touched the bubble closest to him.

The next second, the bubble suddenly burst, and the light and shadow within it instantly magnified and expanded until it occupied the entire white space.

Ye Xiao was no longer surrounded by nothing, but was in a bustling street, with cars and people coming and going everywhere.

"What the hell is this...?"

He stood in the middle of the street, looking around in surprise, until his shoulder accidentally brushed against a passerby walking by.

The latter immediately frowned and glared at him, "Get out of the way, don't block the way."

"Wow, I can't believe I actually ran into someone like that?"

Ye Xiao had initially thought the scene before him was just an illusion or something, but he never expected it to actually be a real entity.

"Because this is a dream, not just a simple illusion."

Ysera, standing to the side, smiled and said, "When you're dreaming, can't you interact with the people in your dreams? But in essence, they are still just products of consciousness."

"Ouch."

Ye Xiao scratched his head, "So what does it mean to show me this dream?"

"Because these are dreams constructed from memories of you, I'm simply handing them over to you."

"My memories about 'myself'?"

This awkward way of expressing it confused Ye Xiao.

"It might be a little difficult to understand if I explain it directly, so let me ask you this first."

Ysera raised a short finger from her sleeve. "You may already know that this world has undergone many cycles of reincarnation because of the existence of the Chaos Witch?"

"Um……"

Ye Xiao nodded; he didn't need to deliberately hide what he knew.

"In the process of the world's reincarnation, there are always some things that are wrongly not traced back, carrying with them information from timelines that should have disappeared. These things are also called anti-entropy fragments."

"With this, the company has developed a method to observe past reincarnation memories through these fragments. To be honest, Mr. Ye, in some past reincarnations, you were actually the leader of humanity in the fight against the Chaos Witch."

"Wow, I'm actually that good."

Ye Xiao raised an eyebrow, feigning surprise.

Isera looked at Ye Xiao's expression, covered her mouth with her sleeve, and let out a soft chuckle, "You should have known all this already, Mr. Ye, there's no need to force yourself."

"Why didn't you say so earlier?"

Ye Xiao's feigned wide-eyed gaze immediately returned to its original dead fish-like state.

"But have you ever wondered why, even though the company is intentionally recruiting otherworldly travelers who performed exceptionally well in past reincarnations, they haven't made any special effort to find you?"

Ysera shook her head. "But... you once defeated the Chaos Witch in countless reincarnations while still in human form?"

"I am over-flattered."

Ye Xiao waved his hand dismissively, "Maybe it's because I'm too powerful and would threaten their rule."

He had considered this question before, but given the ulterior motives of the company's gods, defeating Ella was never their ultimate goal.

Therefore, recruiting a powerful human that they might not be able to control could actually be a bad thing for them.

"No, it's just that I've erased all the memories the company collected about you."

Isera smiled sweetly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Xiao was stunned for a moment, then his lips twitched.

"...So it was you who did the bad thing??"

Then why is this guy even asking the question?!

Ye Xiao was speechless.

"There's nothing we can do. The existence of the Old Gods has disrupted the original order, and the company is no longer as pure as you once envisioned."

Ysera shrugged, giving an innocent look.

"In your cycle of reincarnation, in order to fight against the Chaos Witch, you awakened too many gods who should not exist in this world, thus disrupting the original course of fate."

"They lie dormant in the history of the present world. Although they cannot retain many memories that have been revisited, their transcendent power allows them to continue their awakening. This results in these ancient gods awakening earlier and earlier in the cycle of reincarnation."

"So, you erased information about me from the reincarnation information they obtained, actually to protect me?"

Ye Xiao stroked her chin.

"The ancient gods of the Light Seal are all different, but the only thing they have in common is that they always regard beings below the divine as ants. This is the order and the unchanging law in their eyes."

The girl sighed softly and tossed another bubble into Ye Xiao's hand. "Compared to the Chaos God who brings calamity to the world, a human with the ability to challenge the order is a threat of equal degree in their eyes."

"This certainly lives up to my stereotypes about them... What is this bubble about me?"

Ye Xiao took the bubble and held it in her palm, asking curiously.

"The vision of being betrayed by the Old Gods when you joined forces with them to fight against the Chaos Witch in past reincarnations."

Ye Xiao's hand trembled, and she quickly threw the bubble away as if she had touched something dirty. "Tsk, I'd better not look at this kind of unpleasant memory."

"But it might contain information about other Old Gods that you might be interested in."

Isera laughed.

"..."

Ye Xiao remained silent for a moment, then pinched her nose, picked up the bubble again, and popped it with her fingertip.

The surrounding scenery changed again; the bustling streets were gone, replaced by a spacious and secluded hall.

The glass windows on the outer wall of the hall reflected the thick darkness of the night. A tall, thin figure covered in blood sat motionless by the flickering candlelight, his head drooping.

Despite the dim lighting, Ye Xiao could still tell at a glance that the dying figure was "himself".
