Chapter 111: The Forsaken Ones Organization and Ye Xi’s Identity (2/2)

Shen Cheng nodded: “Your injection technique is much better than Li Ji’s.”

Yu Lan’s expression grew even more strange.

Liu Su shook her head with a smile: “Anything strange happening to him is completely normal.”

Hearing this, Yu Lan nodded in agreement.

Shen Cheng: “…”

No feeling means no feeling! How is that my fault?

“Alright, let’s get to the real business now.” Yu Lan shifted the topic: “Although this matter doesn’t require your involvement yet, I still think it’s necessary to tell you—Qu Zhen has betrayed us.”

“What?!” Shen Cheng’s pupils trembled as he stood up in disbelief: “Qu Zhen? Betrayed?”

Qu Zhen, that Specialized Agent who looked even younger than Shen Cheng, a dog Demi-Human aptitude user, had always struck Shen Cheng as an ambitious and promising young man. So hearing that Qu Zhen had betrayed them, even though it came from Yu Lan, Shen Cheng found it impossible to believe.

“It’s true. After the Tiger Demi-Human Genetic Agent was completed, he took on the mission of escorting the agent to the Academy of Sciences. But on the way, he injured several of the escorting team members and fled with the Tiger Demi-Human Genetic Agent,” Yu Lan said with a somber expression.

“…” After staring at Yu Lan in silence for a moment, Shen Cheng sat down heavily and muttered: “Where did he defect to? Why would someone like him betray us? He’s so young…”

“He hasn’t gone anywhere.” Yu Lan shook her head and took a small transparent bag from the pocket of her white coat, placing it on the table: “The reason for his actions is this.”

When Shen Cheng saw what was inside the transparent bag, his pupils shrank.

—It was a dark purple feather!

There had been a similar dark purple feather under his pillow.

“Ye Xi, a Raven Demi-Human, excels at mental manipulation and hypnosis, and is currently the leader of The Forsaken Ones. The last sighting of her was in Zephyria, where she was intercepted by Zephyria’s Eagle Demi-Humans while attempting to escape after stealing a Demi-Human Genetic Serum. The Forsaken Ones were nearly wiped out by the Zephyrian army, but she managed to escape with a small group of members…”

Liu Su picked up an intel sheet nearby and began reading: “Her distinguishing features are dark purple long hair and dark purple feathers. She is currently wanted by numerous countries. Her hypnotic powers require her feathers as a medium, which can amplify a person’s desires to the point of them taking extreme actions. She is a very dangerous Demi-Human. Recently, she somehow ended up in Solmara. Qu Zhen’s betrayal was likely due to her manipulation…”

At the end, Liu Su sighed.

Ye Xi…

Recalling the first time he met that Demi-Human, who he had patted on the head, Shen Cheng couldn’t help but feel a sense of regret.

So, in the end…she became an enemy?

“Mental manipulation…” Shen Cheng murmured softly, then looked up at Yu Lan: “How has she managed to evade capture for so long, traveling through different countries? Don’t the nations of the world have any defense against abilities like hers?”

Yu Lan shook her head: “Avian Demi-Humans, to some degree, all possess mental abilities. That’s why they are the hardest to study among all Demi-Humans. Even Zephyria, the world leader in Demi-Human research, hasn’t found a way to counter avian Demi-Human abilities.

That said, there aren’t many avian Demi-Humans in the world. The largest concentration is in Antarctica, and abilities like Ye Xi’s mental manipulation are extremely rare among other avian Demi-Humans.”
