Pretending To Be A Boss-Chapter 474 - 83: The Leader of the Evolution Zone
"What exactly is the leader of the Evolution Zone like?"
Song Que posed this question.
He had many questions about the tyrant and wanted to know all the known information about the tyrant.
But Diana's fragmented description of the leader quickly made him sense danger.
After being hypnotized, Diana's emotions stabilized considerably.
Normally, when the leader was mentioned, her emotions would fluctuate greatly, but now she spoke in an even tone:
"The leader is a person whose calm and rationality far surpass that of an ordinary person.
He is like a machine that possesses very little human emotion.
In terms of combat capability, the leader has received a mysterious beast blood serum. We do not know how strong the leader's true strength is, what his real abilities are, or how many abilities he has."
"What do you mean, has he never used his full strength even when facing the beasts?" Song Que was somewhat surprised.
The source of this c𝐨ntent is freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.
It seemed that the leader's strength was very similar to that of the Masked Chopper Hero, an ability that far exceeded human limits, or rather, far surpassed the limits of humans.
"The leader does not participate in the capture of the serum sources. My lord, I don't know much about the leader, but he only appears when very special experimental subjects emerge. The last time was Zero, and before that, Kritos."
Diana's expression showed a slight change.
There are two types of hypnosis, one that conforms to the logic of the world and one that does not.
Song Que's hypnosis was of the former kind, so when thinking about those illogical matters, Diana would still have her own emotions.
Such as fear.
"Every time the leader appears, it is to suppress those overly powerful experimental subjects. The power he shows is overwhelming. In fact, the battle with Kritos did not have to result in injury for the leader, it's just... he was reluctant to kill Kritos."
Song Que could now understand Diana's fear.
If Kritos in a tyrant state possessed strength surpassing disaster-level creatures, then the Evolution Zone was essentially creating boss-type humans.
These boss-type humans could counter disaster-level creatures; for humanity, the yellow zone would no longer be a problem.
The control of the mining area would significantly increase for humans.
Tyrant transformation up to this point seemed to have found very few patterns; it was still in a state of chance.
But what was truly terrifying was that the leader normally defeated Kritos.
"Will he come to see me tomorrow?"
"Yes, my lord. Tomorrow the leader will summon you."
"Do you have any advice?"
"The leader can detect everything. His observational ability is extremely strong. I think tomorrow you will need to let me take a day off to rest, because as I am now, I would be seen through by the leader." Diana's fundamental worldview was to serve Song Que, and naturally, this took precedence over serving the Evolution Zone.
Song Que frowned.
Strong observational ability, calm and rational, with only a trace of human emotion, and his combat strength should be categorized as exceedingly strong.
So far, the experimental subjects, whether A-level, S-level, or SSS-level, seemed to be beneath this leader's own existence.
These summaries made Song Que feel increasingly uneasy.
"So even if I pretend to be in a hypnotized state, there's no way to fool him?"
"The likelihood is less than 0.3 percent," Diana frankly stated.
"But I can't just not meet him, can I?"
There are many project leaders in the Evolution Zone, most of them are some kind of doctor.
For example, Dr. Chen who currently serves as the highest responsible person at Lincoln Fortress.
For example, Dr. Duke who was previously at the second fortress.
Above these malevolent doctors, there were members of the Evolution Council.
Destroying the Evolution Zone is a complex task.
However, directly killing the supreme leader of the Evolution Zone, especially one with high combat prowess, might make the people of the entire Evolution Zone hesitate about some of the crazier experimental projects.
Because this leader seemed more like a suppressor after an experimental project went awry.
"Does your leader have no weaknesses?"
"Strength and weakness are relative. The weakness of a disaster-level creature is a catastrophe-level creature," Diana said.
She then added:
"However, it is difficult to assess how strong the leader's abilities really are. As for weaknesses in other aspects, there should be none."
Song Que nodded, accepting this explanation.
But inside the Pyramid, where could one find a catastrophe-level creature?
Weaknesses in other aspects naturally referred to personality.
But it was indeed difficult to find a weakness in someone who was almost devoid of humanity.
Song Que began to plan his next steps.
Diana, looking worse for wear after being hit by his simple one-two punch, clearly wasn't suited to do any more conspicuous tasks for him.
To confront a monster, Song Que felt like he was up against overwhelming odds.
…
…
Lincoln Fortress, the fourth layer.
On the fourth layer, where criminal figures frequently appeared, the highest bounty wasn't for Pyramid's version of the Riddler or the Penguin.
It was for a weirdo called Cube Man.
He was not a lunatic from Arkham Hospital, nor a crime enthusiast from the Central or Seaside District.
In fact, he did not belong to the fourth layer at all.
In Lincoln Fortress, very few dared to challenge the guards at the entrances to the layers.
Because the guards were equipped with sophisticated equipment, and their numbers were far greater than other fortresses.
But just several days ago, there was such a stranger who forcibly breached the layer entrance, storming all the way from the second layer to the fourth.
