Chapter 1157 - 616: Trying to Win Us Over_3
"Very well. Jin Yue, you..."
"I’m also willing." Jin Yue nodded.
She showed no emotion, remaining expressionless the whole time. But her acting skills weren’t good anyway. Unlike Lou Fei’Er, she didn’t need to be so exaggerated; she just had to play a person whose emotions didn’t fluctuate much.
"Alright, then follow me."
Shi Wanyun led the two, quickening their pace toward the World Tree.
[Well done.]
The mysterious voice echoed once more in her mind.
Shi Wanyun smiled faintly.
Fortunately, this mysterious voice could only transmit information into her mind, not read her thoughts directly.
Otherwise, no matter how well Lou Fei’Er performed, it would be useless.
Soon, the three of them reached the side of the World Tree’s trunk.
"How do we get up?" Lou Fei’Er looked around, visibly a bit impatient, "Is it the same as on our side, using the roots to go up? But there aren’t any roots here?"
Before her words had fallen, a rustling sound came from above the three women.
They looked up to see a thick root of the World Tree extending from its dense canopy, reaching downwards.
The root vertically descended to the ground, and then a passage large enough for two people to pass through gradually opened on the surface of the root.
"Is this for us to go in?" Lou Fei’Er asked curiously.
She was genuinely curious.
This was completely different from their world.
Or perhaps, the World Tree on their side could do the same, but they hadn’t figured out how to use it yet?
"Yes, let’s go inside. You two first."
"What, are you afraid we’ll run off?" Lou Fei’Er rolled her eyes at her, then stepped inside.
Jin Yue followed closely behind.
Shi Wanyun entered last.
Soon after, the opening on the root’s surface closed, and the root retracted upwards, entering inside the World Tree within seconds.
...
"So, according to the orders from above, I’ve teleported those three to a small island in the Atlantic Ocean."
The man, trying to curry favor, explained everything to Xu Xin and Xu Ying.
"There’s a World Tree on that island. Our boss will personally meet them, to make them completely submit to us. Apparently, these women are very trusted by that Xu-whatever, maybe they’re even his bed companions. When the time comes, they’ll backstab him in bed, hahaha, just thinking about it makes me laugh!"
The man laughed heartily: "Let that guy struggle there, making us work overtime! He deserved to die!"
He already considered Xu Xin to be a dead man.
Xu Xin’s expression slightly darkened.
He thought that the three, who knew the truth and had injected themselves with the genetic serum, were unlikely to be swayed by words or temptations, nor could they be easily controlled. But if something were to happen to them over there...
"Which island? Give me the coordinates." Xu Ying immediately inquired, "Our goal is also to destroy that World Tree. Since there are people like that, we should also go see."
"Ah! No wonder an Order Enforcer came over here." The man suddenly realized, "That World Tree really troubles even the gods, huh? That Xu-whatever is something else."
"Alright, enough nonsense." Xu Xin frowned.
"Oh, okay, it’s like this..." The man handed the coordinates to Xu Ying, then scratched his head and said, "But, you might not find them when you get there, because I accidentally sent them to the wrong place before..."
...Huh?
"The people over there told me those three women never arrived, so I went to check the woman’s tree house for anomalies, only to find out they seemed to have been sent to the desert... I was about to go find them there when you showed up..."
So that’s how it is...
No, wait!
They were sent to the desert?!
"Well, it shouldn’t be a big deal..."
The man smiled awkwardly: "That Shi Wanyun is one of ours, right? She can teleport too. I haven’t been quite convinced she’s truly betrayed us, so I had an extra security measure. I messed with her tree house, affecting her, ensuring that for the next few days, any teleportation she initiates, regardless of the destination, will send her to that isolated island... It’s a good thing I had a second measure..."
Right, Shi Wanyun can teleport.
Then it’s indeed nothing to worry about.
"Let’s set off, then." Xu Ying lightly stomped her foot, and a purple-black vortex appeared beneath her.
This left the man gaping: "Oh my god, being able to teleport with a stomp! The Order Enforcer’s new technology is so powerful..."
"Hmm... what about him?" Xu Ying looked at the man.
"What else?" Xu Xin glanced at him and sneered.
