Dual Worlds: I Have a Doomsday World

Baili Xueyuan looked a little surprised, as if she hadn’t expected Lin Qi to ask that question.

Her tone was quite frank. "I just got here. Around the same time you came upstairs."

Lin Qi looked at Baili Xueyuan, unable to tell if she was telling the truth.

’If that’s true, she probably didn’t see me using my wristband to contact King Arthur.’

Lin Qi could only choose to believe Baili Xueyuan for the time being. Setting aside his doubts, he continued, "What was the other plan you mentioned?"

Lin Qi steered the conversation back on track. The core of their discussion was still the current crisis in Red Fruit City.

Baili Xueyuan was amazed by Lin Qi’s composure. Even now, he hadn’t revealed any emotions or actions that could be exploited as a weakness.

’As expected of someone who climbed the ranks in a major corporation. His mental fortitude is truly exceptional.’

Baili Xueyuan stared into Lin Qi’s eyes, and her first sentence was a bombshell. "You lied to me yesterday."

A lie!

’It’s true.’ Lin Qi hadn’t told Baili Xueyuan much of the truth yesterday, aside from admitting he was a Wizard Professional.

Listening to Baili Xueyuan’s tone, Lin Qi felt that she wasn’t looking to condemn him.

Without showing much emotional fluctuation, Lin Qi continued to listen, offering no response for the time being.

Baili Xueyuan began to narrate in a slow, deliberate manner, "I’ve found more information. For instance, on the last day of the Greenfield City incident, Liu Xuan was besieged by a large number of Mercenary Corps, and those mercenaries were almost instantly slaughtered."

"The outside world, including the Assassin Alliance’s intelligence channels, all believe the one who acted was a hidden Wizard Professional from Liu’s Heavy Industries."

"But based on my judgment, the one who acted was you, wasn’t it?"

"A Tier One Third Stage Wizard? Who are you trying to kid?"

After her last sentence, Baili Xueyuan rolled her eyes at Lin Qi.

’A Tier One Extraordinary Professional instantly killing hundreds of Implanters? And many of them were A-Class, no less.’

’Who would believe something like that?’

Hearing Baili Xueyuan’s words, Lin Qi’s expression remained largely unchanged. He just nodded slightly and said, "You’ve guessed correctly. I was indeed the one who acted that night."

Lin Qi admitted it decisively.

’Although,’ Lin Qi thought, ’Baili Xueyuan has no direct evidence to prove her judgment. Guang Ling’s work to erase the traces was absolutely flawless.’

But stubbornly hiding the truth from Baili Xueyuan would bring him no benefit.

Besides, Baili Xueyuan wouldn’t act against him.

On the contrary, her so-called second plan to solve the problem would require his help.

Lin Qi went a step further, admitting to Baili Xueyuan’s speculation. "I’m actually a Tier One Fourth Stage Wizard Professional, but I have a special Ability that allows me to control blood within a certain range. That’s how I was able to inflict large-scale casualties on those with Prosthetic Implantation."

He admitted it!

No more pretending!

’I’m not some Tier One Third Stage weakling!’

’I’m a Tier One Fourth Stage powerhouse!’

Lin Qi did a quick mental calculation. There were a total of four abilities that Baili Xueyuan had noticed so far.

An observation-type Ability, a Healing Ability, Blood Manipulation, and the ability he gained after analyzing the Crimson Crystal Stone from Brother Green Hair’s head.

He would only admit to what had been exposed.

’In any case, it’s not like Baili Xueyuan is going to torture me for information.’

Hearing Lin Qi’s answer, Baili Xueyuan’s expression turned somewhat helpless.

’As expected of someone who makes a living in a major corporation. So cautious. Even now, he’s unwilling to tell me, his ’elder,’ the whole truth.’

Baili Xueyuan clearly didn’t believe that Lin Qi was only a Tier One Wizard.

But just as Lin Qi had thought, she had no direct evidence to prove it.

Baili Xueyuan no longer dwelled on this point. Instead, she brought the conversation back on track and continued, "The ability to control blood... that does match the intelligence I’ve analyzed. This is the main reason I wanted to speak with you alone."

"To solve the current problem in Red Fruit City, aside from collectively destroying the Abnormals, there is another method: to collectively... heal them in a short period of time."

"As long as the abnormality within their bodies doesn’t erupt, it won’t lead to an uncontrollable situation."

"Coincidentally, your application of blood control to instantly kill a large number of Implanters is what gives this plan a chance of being executed."

After speaking, Baili Xueyuan watched Lin Qi quietly, waiting for his response.

Meanwhile, Lin Qi was silently calculating.

’Destroy? Or heal?’

’Is Baili Xueyuan asking me to use my Blood Manipulation to perform simultaneous craniotomies on thousands of people?’

’Can I even do that?’

’Control thousands, or even tens of thousands, of craniotomies at the same time?’

’With the Spiritual Power of a Tier Three Wizard, it seems... it might not be impossible.’

’Tens of thousands simultaneously would be difficult, but if it’s just a thousand, I’m confident.’

’A thousand at a time, with scalpels forming from inside the patients’ bodies.’

’Forget suturing. Just focus on removing the frontal lobe causing the abnormality, without them dying on the spot.’

’A thousand surgeries might not even take more than a minute.’

’Even tens of thousands would take less than ten minutes.’

’But the problem is...’

’Why should I?’

From the perspective of his personal safety and the company’s interests, the life or death of these employees was far less important than one might think.

Seeing Lin Qi’s brow furrow ever more deeply, Baili Xueyuan didn’t grow impatient.

Her tone was even more composed than before. "While your Ability could theoretically achieve the scenario I’ve described, given your Extraordinary Ability Level and the number of Abnormals, implementing it will undoubtedly be far more difficult than you imagine."
