Chapter 701 699 A Moment to Feast (16)_1

Chapter 701: Chapter 699: A Moment to Feast (16)_1 Chapter 701: Chapter 699: A Moment to Feast (16)_1 Undoubtedly, there was no way to conceal my violent behavior towards Cynthia.

At this moment, the entire Underground Research Facility was probably watching this office.

Fu Qian was even quite certain that a group of guards was already blocking the door outside.

But there lies a problem: the guards did not rush in immediately.

Even though they had surrounded the office, they did not intervene until Dr. Cynthia was forced to look into the mirror.

This behavior could not help but be described as quite subtle.

Considering everything that happened in the office was under surveillance, Fu Qian understood that all of his actions from start to finish were still being treated as a case study.

That is to say, in the eyes of the project leader, until this moment, he had not yet stepped outside the framework of the test.

The reaction of Cynthia at this moment also proved this point.

A glance was enough to see the spirit of dedication for science.

In fact, this was one of the reasons Fu Qian didn’t let Cynthia keep looking.

As the observed subject, as long as he kept his behavior within certain limits to make them feel in control, there would still be room for maneuver.

But if he chose to break through the five-minute mark, that would be an absolutely malicious incident.

Then, the only option left would be to fight his way out in Shura Mode.

Under such chaos, finding the real Gaya Ulrich would be out of the question.

Although my SAN Points had once again broken a hundred, I could not afford to waste them so recklessly.

“A special case, so you’re still observing me?”

At this moment, in line with the researchers, Fu Qian put away his smile and spoke with an unfriendly tone.

“I’m merely doing my duty, just as you are observing me. Why bother getting caught up in such a trivial concept?”

Cynthia had by now completely regained her composure.

“All you need to know is that it’s better for you to continue as an observed subject under the current situation.”

“Even if you kill me, you won’t be able to get out, and the only thing that awaits you is an even more miserable fate.”

“However, if you make another choice, I believe the company will acknowledge your contributions to a considerable extent.”

After a series of gentle persuasions, Cynthia looked at Fu Qian’s cold face.

“I believe we have reached a consensus?”

“What do you want me to do?”

Fu Qian was silent for a moment before finally relenting in his tone.

“You don’t need to do anything, just wait.”

Cynthia, having regained control of the situation, finally showed a smile, and the next moment the door to the office was opened from the outside.

A corridor full of guards parted to make way for a familiar figure that walked in.

Gaya Ulrich?

Even the real one?

Fu Qian always clearly remembered the people he had killed.

So he was very certain that the person rushing over at this moment was not the substitute that had appeared first last time, but the stronger number two that had shown up later.

It seems my performance this time was indeed even more eye-catching to them.

Unfortunately, past experiences had shown that even if I twisted off this person’s head, the mission would not be completed.

“A very special case.”

In the face of the newcomer, Cynthia commented indifferently.

“Cognition remains unaffected, but power has indeed experienced an exaggerated growth.”

“This seems to pose a significant challenge to our previous conclusions.”

“I see it, a truly astonishing increase in strength.”

Brother Gaya replied, examining Fu Qian from head to toe.

He showed not the slightest concern for his colleague’s recent ordeal.

“Mr. 9527, I can imagine how you feel right now.”

“Experiencing such a transformation, anyone would feel as if they’d hit the jackpot, like the Child of Destiny among millions of failures; a bit of showing off at this point is completely understandable.”

Gaya looked at Fu Qian, his tone gentle.

“Unfortunately, my years of experience have told me that no Transcendent power comes without a price.”

“So, although you may feel that you passed the test of Soul Guidance and your cognition is flawless, I would still suggest that you examine yourself more carefully, such as… your emotions.”

Gaya glanced towards Cynthia, signaling to Fu Qian about his behavior just now.

“Even with your excitement, from your perspective, it’s hard for me to imagine you would do that kind of thing to a tester, don’t you think?”

Theoretically, that was true.

Facing Gaya’s question, Fu Qian inwardly nodded, understanding his point.

After all, he was currently playing the role of someone who had made mistakes, was forced to cooperate with dangerous tests, and sought redemption through merit within the organization.

Even if he had just had a stroke of luck and unlocked his governor and conception vessels, he wouldn’t have lashed out at the testers.

It was utterly self-defeating behavior.

From this perspective, his behavior just now was indeed too impulsive.

Even at this moment, he could still feel a subtle, almost imperceptible irritability within.

…

Of course, Fu Qian also understood that this irritability didn’t come from himself, but from Gaya in front of him.

Having been Wen Li’s sparring partner so many times, if he couldn’t sense the passive changes in his own emotions, he would be too dull.

Brother Gaya clearly didn’t come for nothing; from the moment he entered, he had started some special manipulations.

For instance, at this very moment, Gaya’s congenial face held a hint of authority that unwittingly made one want to ponder as he suggested and follow his advice.

Even his rotund belly, at a glance, took on the aura of a chancellor.

This abnormal situation was obviously Gaya’s deliberate misguidance.

This guy really wasn’t afraid of leading someone astray!

He was forcefully applying pressure, trying to uncover some valuable information.

Keeping a composed facade, Fu Qian reflected inwardly.

He, a Demigod, was actually affected to this extent.

If it had been someone else, they might have been misled into questioning their entire existence.

And yet, the other was only Middle Tier.

Such a heaven-defying effect—was it a benefit from studying the Dimming Pony?

As the project leader, that also made sense.

“You do seem to have a point there,” Fu Qian replied thoughtfully.

Of course, to increase his credibility, he still retained a bit of defiance in his response.

“But one thing—what I did just now brought me great joy.”

“And thinking back on it now is the same; I like this state of mind.”

Fu Qian pointed at himself.

“Are you telling me now that this is the result of distortion? I must say, hearing that does make me quite unhappy.”

“But nevertheless, that isn’t the real you, right?”

Gaya stepped forward with a smile, his voice like a Demon’s whisper.

“Are you content to be misled like this? Manipulated?”

“Don’t resist; try to listen to the voice deep within your heart—”

The next moment, his words abruptly stopped.

“You’re right, don’t resist.”

Amidst a chorus of exclamations, Fu Qian, who had moved forward at an unthinkable speed, was holding Gaya by the neck, the other hand pulling back the curtain of Soul Guidance.

“Come, listen to the voice deep within your own heart.”
