Although Wang Machao was surprised and in awe by Lin Ye’s performance, he didn’t show it on his face. Instead, he said in a business-like manner, “Lin Ye if this is true,”

“Please cooperate with the investigation of our Abyssal Demons operation team. Come with us to the Professional Alliance’s branch in Jiang City and tell us everything that happened.”

“Although this might affect your plans for the college entrance examination, it will also reveal how you fare during your preparations.”

“However, considering the severity of the incident and for the safety of all Jiang City residents, I hope you can understand that this is a process that everyone has to go through.”

Lin Ye didn’t have anything to say to refute the man.

‘Fine.’

‘I’m done.’

‘Today’s Lady Luck’s buff is going to be wasted.’

Although he could rely on staying up all night to make up for the lost time himself, doing so would cause his fatigue points to increase rapidly.

Not only would this reduce his efficiency in clearing secret dungeons, but it would also slow him down for tomorrow’s plans he had set up.

And since the investigation might last for a few days…

His plan to grind dungeons all night tonight was probably not going to work either…

‘Aish!’

He had no choice!

In order to support their work in fighting the Abyssal Demons, he had to go with them!

In any case, the number of free attribute points after level 10 would be dozens of times more than before level 10. The dozens of free attribute points deducted in the early stages would only be a small advantage in the college entrance examination.

In a Professional’s entire career, these free attribute points were dispensable.

Not to mention,

‘I haven’t fully leveled up yet, but I can instantly deal more than 5,000 true damage. My combat power has seriously exceeded my level.’

He could still afford to suffer this small loss…

Lin Ye was about to comply when Wang Machao’s phone suddenly rang.

He took it out and found that the caller was his highest-ranking boss.

If it wasn’t something extremely important, the other party would never take the initiative to call him, especially not this kind of private call.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

So, Wang Machao excused himself and walked to an empty corner to make sure that no one could eavesdrop on their conversation before he pressed the green button to answer the call.

“Hello, Boss? What is it?”

The other man didn’t waste any time, “Wang Machao, are you planning to bring that Lin Ye student back to the Professional Division for investigation?”

“Um… Yes?” Wang Machao was a little confused.

“There’s no need. Let him go.” His Boss said, “This case related to the Abyssal Demon will be put on hold for a while. We’ll deal with it after he finishes his college entrance examination,”

“What?” Wang Machao was dumbfounded. “We’ll let him go, just like that?”

“Isn’t this a fixed process that must be followed to track down Abyssal Demons?”

“If I let him go… Wouldn’t the higher ups punish me for letting go of such a great lead?”

“You don’t have to worry about that. No one will come to you for trouble,” The Boss reassured, “I wasn’t the only one who agreed to this. The President and all the other ministers have also agreed.”

If his Boss could see him now, he would see his gaping mouth.

‘The f*ck?’

‘Who is this kid?’

‘All the Professional Alliance’s big shots in Jiang City are here to support him?’

‘They even gave him the green light to let him go, despite knowing the kid might have more information regarding the dangers of Abyssal Demons?’

“Boss…” Wang Machao slowly began. “Can you tell me the reason why?”

“I don’t have his background for the time being.” His Boss replied.

“He’s just an ordinary college entrance examination student to my knowledge,”

“However, his future potential is limitless. It’s very likely that he’ll become the dark horse of our Rivertown’s college entrance examination champion this year.”

“So,”

“At this stage, we can’t let anyone disturb his preparation for the college entrance examination. It will affect his ability to obtain free attribute points and level up.”

“And you can’t reveal his college entrance examination preparation!”

Hearing that, Wang Machao almost knelt down.

‘F*ck!’

Even his Boss got passionate!

“Uh… Okay?”

“Also, I noticed it when I was checking the Abyssal Demon’s corpse and the Fallen student…”

“The student, Lin Ye’s, combat ability and combat awareness are no less than us members of the Encirclement operation team. Not only can he kill a level 20 Abyssal Demon by himself, but he can also accurately control the health of the Fallen down to 5%.”

“This way he deliberately leaves the Fallen alive so that we can arrest him for interrogation… It’s simply invincible!”

“This is normal,” The other party replied, “Do you know the famous ‘Hex Teacher’ from Bai Ma high school?”

“The Cursemancer? The secret realm Boss that came from the ‘Hive-like’ dungeon.” Wang Machao confirmed, “The Gold-grade boss that has the ability to defeat a Platinum-grafe Boss… Yeah, I know.”

“Just two days ago,” His Boss began, “Lin Ye killed it without any injuries.”

“He also got the qualification to enter the ‘Hive-like’ secret dungeon.”

Wang Machao stared at the wall across from him for a moment.

Until it hit him.

‘?’

‘??”

‘???’

‘What the f*ck!!?’

“What the f*ck??… Is he a God-tier genius!?”

“That Cursemancer’s skills and stats are insane. Its IQ is also high!”

“A level 20 university student might not be able to defeat it without getting hurt, let alone an eighth grader!”

“If this kid doesn’t have a God-tier talent, how else could he have achieved this??”

The other party replied, “I’m not sure myself,”

“Perhaps he has awakened a special talent that can restrain the Cursemancers.”

“Or maybe his combat skills are really amazing.”

“But as long as you know…”

“In the future, he will be able to enter the ‘Hive-like’ realm. Furthermore, his combat strength is very strong. There is a chance that he will be able to come out alive.”

“So… I don’t need to remind you anymore, right?”

Wang Machao subconsciously swallowed his saliva.

“Yes Boss, I understand. I’ll personally take care of this kid and make sure that there won’t be any problems before the college entrance examination!”

“You don’t have to worry, sir!”

There was a pause after that. Then, Wang Machao asked again,

“By the way…”

“That dead Abyssal Demon…”

“Could it be because of this matter that it specifically came to find him and wanted to eliminate this threat in advance?”

“No,” The other man replied, “High-level Abyssal Demons are very meticulous.”

“If they wanted to eliminate the geniuses of our human race, they would not have just sent the lowest level, ‘Abyssal Salesman’, and a recently turned Fallen to kill the kid.”

“They would have at least sent out a ‘White Clown’ level Fallen to ensure that they can kill the target without fail.”

After a pause, the person on the other end of the phone continued, “Estimated?”

“This Abyssal Demon is looking for Huang Shaofeng because of him, right? ”

Wang Machao was stunned.

“Huh?”

“Huang Shaofeng?”

“His name sounds a little familiar…”

“He’s the son of the Huang Corp’s CEO, Huang Tianqi. He’s very adaptable to abyssal power. He came to us a few days ago and said that an Abyssal Demon tried to lure him, but he rejected it.” His Boss reminded.

Wang Machao reacted instantly.

“Oh… I remember now. So it’s that student with a very strong personality!”

“They know each other?”

“Several days ago, Huang Shaofeng and Lin Ye had a conflict. The two of them fought in public. Then Huang Shaofeng was targeted by the Abyssal Demon.” The other party explained.

“When Huang Shaofeng rejected the Abyssal Demon, he probably said something about Lin Ye, which caused the Abyssal Demon to misunderstand.”

“I thought Huang Shaofeng had a grudge to Lin Ye, but apparently he rejected the demon’s temptation.”

“That’s probably why it wanted to kill Lin Ye first. It was hoping that it could prove its worth to Huang Shaofeng. Then, it can invade his mind and tempt this one in a million Fallen genius to join the abyss faction…”

“Otherwise… I really don’t know what it was aiming for.”

“Why would that Abyssal Demon risk its life and reveal its true form to fight Lin Ye head-on?”
