One punch calms the storm, no gods in the world

Chapter 168 Lighthouse
Many small animals in nature, such as birds and mice, die from fear.

Even among humans, there have been cases of death from cardiac arrest under high pressure.

This case also applies to a powerful demon transformer like Sophia who is far superior to ordinary people.

Although her body is indeed far superior to that of an average person, a mental attack is no different from physical strength.

Once a certain limit is exceeded, even powerful creatures will die.

After a long while, Sophia did not get up from the ground, but still lay there, motionless.

However, her eyes were slightly opened and she looked at Suti.

At this moment, the look she gave Suti was no longer full of contempt as before, but was filled with fear.

This fear can never be eliminated in this life and will remain in Sophia's heart forever.

This is the horror of the attack on will. Once it truly defeats the opponent's mind, it will leave permanent psychological trauma to the opponent.

Moreover, this kind of trauma, like childhood trauma, often cannot be healed in a lifetime.

"I don't want to repeat what I'm going to say a second time. Just answer whatever I ask. If you lie or hesitate, I'll give you another Heaven-shaking Seal."

Suti's words were still calm, but they brought Sophia endless fear.

"I'll tell you! I'll tell you whatever you ask."

She let out a trembling scream, no longer as strong as before, and cried out like a helpless little girl.

Even a powerful monster with a brutal character and fearlessness of pain, once its mind and will are crushed, becomes nothing more than a frightened and cowardly weakling.

The body changes reality, but only the mind can control the body.

"First, I want to know whether your family will search for you or even seek revenge on you after you disappear."

This is what Suti wants to know most.

After all, Sophia said that she had a first-class aristocratic family behind her, and the aristocratic family, in the White Country, was actually a bloodline family.

The first-class bloodline family possesses a seventh-level strongman. Suti cannot afford the revenge of such a family at the moment, so he needs to know whether the other party will cause trouble for him because of Sophia's disappearance.

"No, it won't."

Sophia said tremblingly.

"Although I am a general and have some value to the Clauren family, I am an expatriate. According to the rules, if an expatriate disappears in the Shia territory, the family will not spend too much effort to find him unless he is particularly important."

After learning this, Su Ti nodded slightly.

"Great, second question."

“If a member of the Collectors’ Association dies, will there be a search and retaliation?”

Sophia did not hesitate at all in answering this question, trembling.

"No, and no, the Collectors' Association is a relatively loosely structured mercenary organization. They have a close cooperative relationship with the Death Worship Cult. They collect various Yin instruments and evil weapons for the Death Worship Cult in exchange for rewards. They generally do not avenge the death of their members."

Hearing this, Suti showed a slightly strange look.

"A cooperative relationship with the Death Worship Cult?"

The Death Worship Cult is the largest evil sect in Shia. They gain power by artificially creating evil spirits and controlling evil weapons. Although they are not monsters, they are more harmful than monsters.

Since the founding of Shia, the Cult of Death has held more than a hundred verifiable sacrificial ceremonies in Shia, directly and indirectly causing more than 100,000 deaths. It is the largest evil force in Shia, bar none.

The Collectors Association was actually related to the Death Worship Cult. This was heavyweight intelligence, and even Suti, a level 4 investigator, did not know it.

"Yes, yes. According to our Lighthouse Organization's investigation, the Collectors Association did accept employment from the Death Cult."

"lighthouse."

Hearing this word, Suti's eyes moved slightly.

The province of Nanjiang is on the edge of the vortex of various big forces in the secret world, but its secret world is actually relatively peaceful.

Although there is no support from the pro-patriotic bloodline families, there is no restraint from the separatist bloodline families either.

However, here, apart from the Nanjiang Provincial Bureau, there are two big bosses.

First, Su Ti also knew him, and that was Lu Qingfeng from Qingfeng Kendo Club.

This person is a third-level bloodline general. He was once a member of the Lu family, a second-class bloodline family in the northern province that is pro-state. However, for some unknown reasons, he left the Lu family and settled in Nanjiang Province.

After Lu Qingfeng came to Nanjiang Province, he did not join the Three-Type Bureau like the Pro-State Faction, nor did he secretly use his powerful strength for personal gain like the Li-State Faction. Instead, he founded the Qingfeng Kendo Club, a folk monster-hunting organization. He recruited some awakened people from the folks and taught them to control the power of their own bloodlines, while secretly eliminating monsters and exchanging elixirs with the Three-Type Bureau for his daily practice and survival.

During this period, the Third Category Bureau also tried to recruit Lu Qingfeng several times, but he refused every time. In the end, the Third Category Bureau also acquiesced to the existence of Lu Qingfeng, a leisurely and neutral force, and allowed him to stay in Nanjiang Province.

And if Lu Qingfeng's Qingfeng Kendo Club is a neutral major force in Nanjiang Province, then the other force is the demon-transformer force, the Lighthouse.

Although this organization is a force of demons and an enemy that the three-level bureaus want to eliminate, it is actually very secretive. It is rumored that this organization has a third-level demon, but in fact, the Nanjiang Provincial Bureau has never actually seen one.

Because of the characteristics of the monster transformers, they can transform into human form and hide in the crowd. If they want to hide, it will be difficult to find them even in a third-level bureau.

The second reason is that although the Lighthouse Organization is a demon-mutant organization, it is very law-abiding and has never openly opposed the three-category bureau. In addition, because the power has always been insufficient, the Nanjiang Provincial Bureau has always allowed this demon-mutant organization to exist in Nanjiang Province and has never officially encircled and suppressed it.

At this time, when Sophia said the word "lighthouse", Suti's heart moved, and he knew that it was the right choice to save the other party's life, and he really caught a big fish.

If he could eat the third-level demon transformer, it would probably help him make up for a lot of progress in the Seven Senses of Demon Division Chapter.

"Are you from the Lighthouse Organization? Tell me, tell me all the information."

Seeing Suti's question, Sofia did not dare to hide it and answered tremblingly.

"Lighthouse, this is the largest demon-transformed organization in Nanjiang Province, and it's also where I belong. The purpose of this organization is to provide shelter, safety and security for demon-transformed people, and it also handles intelligence work. When I first investigated your intelligence, I relied on Lighthouse's intelligence network."

It can be seen that after her psychological defenses were broken, Sophia had revealed all the valuable information in her heart to the other party without reservation, just to exchange for a little sense of security.

Sophia shuddered.

"Although they are demons in the Lighthouse organization, they secretly manipulate many forces in the surface world to cover their whereabouts and hide themselves. Therefore, even the Category 3 Bureau knows very little about them. Moreover, those weak demons who form the bottom of the Lighthouse don't even know that they are part of the Lighthouse. They only know that they are a small and scattered organization. Therefore, even if the Category 3 Bureau catches these little demons, they can't ask anything from them."

"Only general-level demon changers are the upper echelons of the Lighthouse, the true core members of the Lighthouse."

"Besides me, there are three other general-level demons in the Lighthouse, namely..."

At the same time, while Suti was interrogating Sofia.

Juyun City, Zhoudu Building, Ankang Insurance Group. It was already noon, the company staff had already gone off work, and several white-collar women in OL uniforms were chatting and laughing while waiting for the elevator.

Lin Yifeng, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and with a gentle and elegant face, walked over, followed by a secretary, attracting everyone's attention.

"Mr. Lin."

"Hello, Mr. Lin."

Seeing Lin Yifeng walking towards the elevator, the female white-collar workers waiting for the elevator hurriedly greeted him and made way for the elevator door.

Lin Yifeng nodded slightly, without any hesitation, and walked straight into the elevator with his secretary.

After the elevator door closed and the elevator went down, the white-collar women all looked at it with admiration, envy and love.

"Mr. Lin is so handsome."

"They say he is not yet thirty."

"He's already the chairman at such a young age. He's so handsome and rich."

"If I could get close to him, I wouldn't have to worry about anything in my life."

"You're dreaming. Mr. Lin is a career-oriented man. He won't fall in love."

In the elevator, Lin Yifeng was wearing a white suit and had a slender figure. As a director of Ankang Insurance Group, his status and position were well-known even in the entire Nanjiang Province.

In terms of influence in the business community of Nanjiang Province, Ankang Insurance Group is definitely among the top three. He is a person who can shake the entire business community of Nanjiang Province with just a stomp of his feet.

However, even such a person felt as if a huge rock was pressing on his heart, heavy and heavy.

"Please cancel this afternoon's meeting for me."

"Yes."

The secretary holding a tablet notepad behind him quickly replied.

"If I don't answer the phone these days, it means something is wrong. Let the acting director handle the company's affairs, and I will come back to inspect it when the time comes."

"Yes."

After giving a few instructions, the elevator reached the underground first floor. After bidding farewell to the secretary, Lin Yifeng walked straight into the depths of the parking lot.

Next to a luxury car stood several bodyguards with well-developed muscles, their black suits bulging out.

"How about it?"

Seeing Lin Yifeng coming, one of the bodyguards put down his headset and bowed slightly to Lin Yifeng.

"Respected Apostle, the Tower Master is already waiting for your arrival at Tianxin Lake."

Lin Yifeng nodded slightly.

"Where's Chanes?"

"Reporting to the Apostle, Lord Chanes is also on his way."

"Okay, get in the car."

Several people got into the car, which was driven by a man in a black suit, and headed towards the outskirts of Juyun City.

The vehicle drove out of the city and after two hours on the ring road around the mountain, it arrived at Tianxin Lake located in the southern suburbs of Juyun City.

Tianxin Lake, surrounded by mountains, is like a shining pearl inlaid in the earth.

Like Tianbao Mountain, this place is also a scenic spot with a long history. However, due to its remote location, the government did not develop it but sold it to rich people as private property.

After the vehicle stopped, Lin Yifeng and the bodyguards in black suits got out of the car and looked towards Tianxin Lake.

The lake water was crystal clear, sparkling and shining with golden light. Beside the lakeshore, there were towering ancient trees and lush greenery.

On the island in the middle of the lake, exquisite buildings are scattered around in an orderly manner, giving people a feeling of tranquility and remoteness.

Arriving here, Lin Yifeng no longer pretended and took off the gold-rimmed glasses on his face. His elegant and gentle temperament suddenly disappeared, and what remained was only the pressure of a higher being.

As demon-transformers who have condensed demon cores and are able to materialize life force fields, if they do not hide their aura and release it externally, it would be quite terrifying and would even make ordinary people feel short of breath, as if there was an evil dragon standing next to them.

The bodyguards in black suits felt this momentum and their hearts trembled slightly. Their originally straight backs couldn't help but lowered slightly. Although they were all elite demon transformers of the third level and the backbone of the lighthouse, to the generals who stood at the top of the food chain, it was like the difference between a tiger and a sheep.

Two ships were docked at the lakeside, having been waiting for a long time.

There was already a guest on one of the boats. He was a white man with silver hair and green eyes, wearing a black suit. He bowed slightly when he saw Lin Yifeng coming, like an elegant gentleman.

Seeing the other party saluting him, Lin Yifeng nodded slightly and accepted the salute.

In the secret world, the law of the jungle prevails and the hierarchy is strict. One level higher means a clear gap in status.

Although they are colleagues, as a level 2 demon transformer, Lin Yifeng's status is higher than Chanes who is only level 1.

Lin Yifeng and his bodyguards boarded another boat, and the two boats rowed towards the island in the middle of the lake. Lin Yifeng, who was standing at the bow, asked.

"Chanes, how's your death fighting business going?"

Chances chuckled and spoke in fluent Shia language.

"The underworld business is not as clean as your white business. It is suppressed by the government from time to time, especially since a big agent was picked a while ago, and now we haven't found someone with enough weight to take over."

Hearing this, Lin Yifeng nodded slightly. He also knew about this.

"It must be the leader of the Southern Saint Sect, the ancient warrior who made a great splash. He attained Buddhahood at the age of nineteen, reached the level of a general in two months, and also killed a general from the Shen family."

Having said this, Lin Yifeng paused.

"Your agent died at his hands, it's not unfair."

As the local boss of Nanjiang Province, Dengta has a very large intelligence network. Foreign forces that want to gather intelligence in Nanjiang Province will seek cooperation with Dengta.

The intelligence network of Lighthouse is even stronger than that of Nanjiang Provincial Bureau, because they have their secret agents even in Nanjiang Provincial Bureau.

Therefore, as a newly promoted "general-level" in the secret world of Nanjiang Province, they knew most of Su Ti's information clearly, including his identity as a fourth-level investigator in the third-level bureau.

Chances smiled.

"It doesn't matter. They are just mortals. If they die, we can just support another one. With our strength, it will be a piece of cake."
