Chapter 3621 Metamorphosis

Just as Phoenix, Forlevia, and the others were discussing how they should continue their investigations, Kirin left the scene with an excuse. He was an impatient person.

Albeit skeptical about being able to acquire the truth out of Floyd, he figured that there was no harm in trying.

Meanwhile, Floyd was still obsessed with devouring the spiritual energy in the world.

Due to the surge in his overall strength, Floyd captured Kirin’s presence when Kirin was still far away, to which he stopped his cultivation before looking toward Kirin indifferently.

“Floyd, I’m here only to ask you about one thing. Did you leak the technique Evie taught you?”

The question had Floyd’s expression turned as cold as ice, but Kirin did not falter. Instead, he took another few steps forward.

“We’ve got our hands on solid evidence. If you are the one who leaked the technique to someone else, then we could basically conclude that the mysterious woman is Gloria.”

The words came like a bolt from the blue, striking Floyd like a thunderbolt.

“What nonsense are you spouting?” Floyd’s gaze was scorching hot as he locked his eyes on Kirin, attempting to find an opening in Kirin.

Yet, Kirin remained calm and unruffled as he stared right back at Floyd.

“This is no nonsense. I’m going to ask you the same question again right now because everything is in order, and what we are lacking is the answer to that question. Now, look me in my eyes and tell me. Did you leak the technique to Gloria? Tell me the truth!” Kirin articulated each word clearly and loudly.

At that moment, Floyd suddenly felt a bit guilty.

Though he was still looking at Kirin face to face, he averted his gaze for a second.

Even though it was very faint, Kirin still caught sight of it, but he did not expose Floyd. He was still waiting for Floyd’s answer.

“I didn’t,” Floyd uttered in a deep voice.

However, as compared to the haughty tone he used just now, Floyd was visibly much less confident at this moment.

“Very well. You’d better remember that answer of yours, Floyd. We’ve already done our best and everything we could for you. If what you said is a lie, and this lie ended up costing us a hefty price, then you’d better be prepared for what’s coming, especially Boss’ wrath.” With that said, Kirin turned around and walked away.

In actuality, he already had the answer he needed.

Floyd might have denied leaking the technique, but the man’s eyes couldn’t lie, after all.

Floyd had blatantly lied.

In other words, the chances of Gloria being the mysterious woman just increased.

Watching Kirin’s leaving silhouette, Floyd failed to snap out of it even after some time.

The warning from Kirin about facing Levi’s wrath was still ringing in his ears.

Perhaps Phoenix and the others do have their hands on some solid evidence. They have probably gathered every clue they needed apart from those coming from me, which means they have most likely come to a conclusion that the person is Gloria. If my lies put everyone in danger, will I be able to handle Master’s wrath?

Floyd began to panic.

The once unfaltering trust he bore toward Gloria shattered a little.

But that was all.

Maybe I could try baiting some answers from Gloria the next time I see her.

Floyd silently made up his mind.

It’s been some time since I last saw Master. I wonder where he is right now.

Floyd did not overthink and continued to devour the spiritual energy.

Floyd was persistent. He firmly believed that if he were powerful enough, Levi would reconsider his decisions carefully, even if he was angry.

Such was the benefit of absolute power.

On the other side, Levi arrived at the Atlantis project’s underwater training base.

As soon as he arrived, he immediately tore through the spiritual ley line with raw power and prepared to use it to boost his strength.

The powerful energy fluctuations even triggered a terrifying tsunami that this region had never seen before.

Under Levi’s barrage of attacks, the dragon ley line that was hidden at the bottom of the ocean finally revealed itself.
