The Devil's Evolution Catalog

Chapter 725: Are You Done?!

Sis, I purchased an item to lift the distance restriction when using the Marketplace. You should be able to access it whenever you want now

Oh, the item? Its not expensive at all, dont worry. In fact, its really cheap. The system told me this was a special discount

Right Right Ill be careful. You guys watch out as well. And remember to use the detection kit on those survivors. If you find any infected, just isolate them and feed them an antidote potion. Those potions only work before they transform -Ive tested this out myself

I might take a little longer to return. I just got a call from Aunty Xinqing and the General. Theres a place he told me about which I plan on checking out

I know But if you encounter any danger at all, call me.

That giant pile of bones should be harmless, Ive already confirmed that its Soul Flame has been extinguished. It just looks a little scary, thats all. Besides, the outside is too dangerous for the whole inn to evacuate. Just stay there for now

Soon after we ended our call, I heard Sima Junmos stern voice chime in from behind me. Lady Mo Ke, Ive completed my questioning. The situation is as follows

I turned around to find Sima Junmo smiling at me with a perpetually ingratiating look.

As he began explaining what he learnt from those six, I couldnt help but marvel to myself all of a sudden: maybe knock-off goods werent that bad after all

So what youre saying is that they drank a fake?

My jaw nearly fell to the ground when I heard that ludicrously simple explanation.

Thats right. After our investigations, we found out that all six of them had procured their serums through black market sources. Sima Junmo proudly elaborated. In the first place, that serum sold like hotcakes when they were first released. A lot of people wanted one, but the stock was just too limited. Thats when someone had the idea to start selling fakes Who wouldve thought that this would end up saving lives instead

Well, that was a serendipitous display of stupidity.

Im surprised you managed to get an answer so quickly. I looked at the man with genuine surprise and praise.

Sima Junmo immediately broke into a smile wider than his cheeks would logically allow. Lady Mo Ke is too kind, interrogation is my previous line of work!

Hah. Who wouldve thought he actually made a living off his brains in the past anyway

Some of my comrades are holed up in a nearby inn with more survivors. I was planning to lead you all there, but the outside is too dangerous right now. With our current manpower, I cant guarantee all the survivors safety. Thats why Ive decided that you guys should fortify this location for now. Ill search for more reinforcements in the meantime.

Even if the majority of the population was dead now, there should still be small pockets of survivors scattered about. If I was lucky, I might even find some ability users who werent crooked.

Based on Aunty Xinqings videos, these new ability users were all powerful in their own right. Even that worthless tri-colored hoodlum was able to control that giant skeletal monster. If he actually managed to complete that monster, it would have probably been fifty meters tall!

As a comparison, a Mobile Armor was usually twenty to thirty meters tall. At fifty meters, I wouldnt be surprised if his skeletal construct was able to slap a Mobile Armor to death.

Lady Mo Ke is leaving?

Officer Sima youre a grown man, for crying out loud. Dont give me that abandoned puppy look.

But Lady Mo Ke, you are in fact going to abandon us

So youre not even going to deny it

Looking at his forlorn expression reminiscent of a schoolboy who had his first love crushed, I couldnt help but cringe a little. I nearly face-palmed myself as I mumbled, What is this world coming to

Thats right, thats right. We were all living our own lives just not too long ago, and those terrorists had to mess it up for everyone Those bastards at Life Unbound Biotech are the worst, I hope they all get banished to the eighteenth level of Hell! How dare they upset Lady Mo Ke like this! Even the eighteenth level of Hell is too good for them!

Sir, why are you getting so worked up like someone just killed your parents? And youre the one thats making me upset! At this rate, I doubt I will ever be able to convince you of my gender unless I get some kind of official document.

Fine, you know what? All thats not important right now. Whats important is that Im out of here.

Just wait for my news. I have my own mission to complete. With that said, I was really off.

But before I could even take a step further, Sima Junmo was already badgering me. Lady Mo Ke, how about I go with you? I can help protect you.

No need. I can handle myself.

At the end of the day, Sima Junmo was just a normal human, or perhaps an enhanced human at best. Compared to a normal person, he was definitely formidable. But to me he might as well have been dirt; I could easily impart onto someone the ability to throw magic, after all.

Besides, even with his exosuit, his strength wasnt exceptional when compared to those skeletal beasts. Having him follow me around might endanger my life instead.

Mind set, I quickened my pace then leapt out the nearest window.

Ah!

The survivors yelled in surprise, clearly not expecting someone to jump out at this height.

Yet even if this was the twentieth floor, I wasnt the least bit worried about falling, as the moment the sky expanded before me, I spread open my purple wings.

Having barely fallen ten meters, I had stabilised myself to a standstill mid-air. I looked at the direction of the warehouse, then took off like a rocket.

Only Lady Mo Ke can look so beautiful jumping off a building

Screw you!

I swear I need to distance myself from this idiot. At this rate, his stupidity might rub off on me.

However, not long after I left, Aunty Xinqing sent me a set of coordinates, with a note stating that there was a group of combatants there that seemed to have encountered a situation of sorts.

That was about all she told me, so I had no idea what to expect. Still, I decided right away to check out the area. Hopefully, I wont leave empty-handed.
