Chapter 919: Holy Ruins (2)
Li Xiaofei understood that point. When he had fought the real Death God's Eye Delta, he had discovered that although the other party possessed a somewhat human form, its fighting style leaned heavily toward the Primal Faction. It relied more on innate speed, strength, reflexes, and instinct. Even when it used techniques, they only had the form but lacked the spirit.
The Reapers simply could not cultivate human techniques. This had always been one of the main reasons why, even after countless years of war, they had never been able to completely defeat humanity. In short, they were a warlike yet highly curious race.
Li Xiaofei felt that freeing the testing grounds had now become an imperative mission. Otherwise, if the Reapers really discovered something significant, wouldn’t that spell disaster for humanity?
“I want you to promise not to attack Testing Ground Number Seven, and to cover up everything that happened there,” said Li Xiaofei.
“Fine.” Wei Xiaotian agreed without hesitation.
Li Xiaofei immediately felt a bit uncertain and thought, He agreed so quickly, is it a trick?
Wei Xiaotian immediately saw through what he was thinking and said helplessly, “Hall Master Xiaofei, you really don’t have to always think of me as such a bad guy. Even though I’m wearing a Reaper’s form, my heart is still that of a human. My plans and actions will always prioritize the interests of the human race.”
Li Xiaofei snorted coldly as he simply didn’t believe it.
“All right.” Wei Xiaotian suddenly smiled and said, “Actually, no matter how Testing Ground Number Seven changes, it has always been under the control of the human race. Even with your outside intervention, it doesn’t affect the value of the experiment itself. For the Reaper faction, this actually gives them an even better experimental target. They also want to see whether Testing Ground Number Seven might evolve along a path that no other testing ground has ever seen after interference from someone like you.”
Li Xiaofei and Liu Shaji’s involvement had been an accident. But it was also something allowed by the experimental rules. So Wei Xiaotian had no reason to worry about leaks.
Li Xiaofei thought for a moment and understood what he meant. In that case, there really was no need to worry too much.
“Since that’s the case, I’ll wait for your news,” nodded Li Xiaofei.
