These five powers are the Gene Primordial, the Old Republic, the Railway Guild, the Human Alliance, and the Truth Society.
Among them, the Truth Society is the most special power. No one knows where its headquarters are, nor who its leader is, but every time its people appear, they inevitably bring disaster that causes countless deaths.
The Truth Society, by its nature, naturally became a public enemy in the eyes of all powers. Even to the Human Alliance, which is dedicated to maintaining human bloodlines and eradicating all impure life, the Truth Society is a bit too extreme!
The Wildfire Gang Leader had never thought he would have any dealings with the Truth Society.
But more than a month ago, while he was inventorying supplies in the gang, these three people suddenly burst in. They claimed to be from the Truth Society and asked him to help them with something to prevent their whereabouts from being discovered by people from Linn. They also promised to recommend him to join the Truth Society after the matter was done.
At first, of course, he didn't believe such talk. Then the burly man, code-named Number Seven, pulled out a spherical tool. At that moment, he felt as if he had been hit by some kind of immobilization spell; his entire body and space were firmly fixed together, completely unable to move.
That was the first time he felt despair.
Having been in the underworld his entire life, he had experienced more than one death threat, but only this time did he see no possibility of resistance, because he couldn't even understand what move his opponent had made.
The unknown is the greatest fear!
Under pressure, and out of a desire to make a name for himself, the Wildfire Gang Leader agreed to help.
In a small place like the Abandoned Cooling Plant, no matter how much one struggled, they would never make a name for themselves in their lifetime, not even counting as a worm in the eyes of those big figures.
If there was no opportunity, so be it, but when an opportunity presented itself, he had to try to climb up.
But this path was not easy to climb.
Even though he had done his best, these two burly gatekeepers never gave him a good look; only Yulia had a better attitude.
This time, too, Yulia stepped forward to mediate: "Alright, what's so funny about this? Can you guarantee that what he said isn't true? Don't underestimate the Gene Primordial's technology."
The Abandoned Cooling Plant and Linn are both within the control of the Gene Primordial, which is famous worldwide for its Mutant research.
"I don't understand technical matters; you make the call."
Number Seven grinned, seemingly smiling, but in fact harboring anger.
Yulia was not intimidated by his gaze: "Go investigate and see if those Outsiders are related to the Gene Primordial. If they are, then we can't stay here."
Number Seven didn't move.
Yulia's eyes were cold: "If the mission fails, do you think the leader will come after you first, or me?"
Number Seven was silent for a while: "Then I'll just stretch a bit."
He shrugged and walked past the Wildfire Gang Leader.
"I..." The Wildfire Gang Leader was a bit embarrassed.
Yulia said: "Notify me if anything else comes up."
This was a veiled dismissal, and the Wildfire Gang Leader wisely took his leave, his heart filled with anxiety. This time, he had completely offended Number Seven.
Once this matter was resolved, given Number Seven's even more extreme personality than Mark's, he would definitely come back to cause trouble for him.
In terms of strength, he was no match for Number Seven with the spherical tool. In terms of background, he was even less of a match for Number Seven.
Although Yulia had previously promised to recommend him to join the Truth Society, judging by Number Seven's attitude towards Yulia, Yulia probably couldn't protect him.
"Damn it!"
At this point, the Wildfire Gang Leader realized he only had one option.
Go, Undead from the outside! You must kill Number Seven, that arrogant fool!
After coming out of the secret door, the Wildfire Gang Leader encountered Lily, who had come to turn in a quest.
"You collected them so quickly? Good, good, good."
He nodded repeatedly, not in the mood to ask Lily how she had gathered the poison sacs so quickly.
This was somewhat beyond Lily's expectation. Before coming, she had specifically thought of several excuses to use, but since the Wildfire Gang Leader didn't ask, there was no need for her to say more.
[You have completed the Faction Quest [Material Collection (Special)], gaining 10000 Experience Points and 20 Faction Reputation.]
Lily didn't hesitate much and upgraded her Psionic Apprentice to Lv8, then allocated the extra 2 attribute points to Constitution.
