As they watched the captain and the majority of the soldiers leave dejectedly, everyone in Fang Li’s group breathed a sigh of relief in their residence.
“Well, let’s consider that as a passing act,” Sakuya Tachibana looked at Fang Li and smiled. “So, are you going to reveal to us how you destroyed the walls of the training grounds?”
Soma and Hibari immediately turned their attention to Fang Li, seemingly curious about the same question.
Unfortunately, Fang Li didn’t know how to explain it to the people here. Even if he didn’t hide it from Amamiya Rindou and the entire group, they probably wouldn’t understand what was really going on with the existence of the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.
Compared to the incredible Class of God Eaters, the existence of the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception was even more unbelievable.
After all, from a classification perspective, the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception could be considered a super-ability that couldn’t be fully explained by science, making it impossible for others to comprehend.
Even if they could understand it, Fang Li wouldn’t casually reveal the ability of his Mystic Eyes of Death Perception to outsiders. Otherwise, there was no telling when he would be dissected and studied by the mad scientists of this world.
That wouldn’t be a strange occurrence.
You see, in this era, every human desire to defeat the Aragami and regain control over the land for humanity. Therefore, in order to defeat the Aragami, no one would mind having too many research subjects and experimental specimens.
Fang Li was certain that with the ability of his Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, he could easily incite the fanaticism of these people.
Therefore, Fang Li would never casually reveal the ability of his Mystic Eyes.
At that moment, Fang Li spoke up.
“If you can consider this as my personal means of self-preservation, I would greatly appreciate it.”
In other words, that meant there was nothing to disclose.
“Well, then we won’t ask anymore,” Amamiya Rindou lit another cigarette, exhaling smoke as he chuckled. “But if you dare to claim again in the future that you’re just an ordinary soldier, I can’t guarantee that I won’t give you a good beating.”
At least, Amamiya Rindou had never encountered a soldier as mysterious and powerful as Fang Li.
“Fang Li-San, you truly are an incredible person,” Hibari also smiled wryly as she spoke.
“Hmph…” Soma seemed to lose all interest once again, muttering, “Don’t go too far.”
“Anyway, it’s best if our identities remain undisclosed,” Sakuya Tachibana smiled at Fang Li. “Thank you for your trouble.”
“It doesn’t matter,” Fang Li’s tone completely lost its arrogance and sarcasm as he sighed softly. “What I’m afraid of is putting in all this effort and not gaining anything in return.”
“Is that so?” Amamiya Rindou sat down on the sofa, took a puff of his cigarette, and said in a low voice, “In other words, there was no gain from this time?”
Upon hearing this, Fang Li’s brows furrowed slightly.
Seeing Fang Li’s expression, Sakuya Tachibana couldn’t help but ask, “What’s wrong? Did you think of something?”
The gazes of everyone immediately converged on Fang Li.
In such a situation, facing the scrutiny of everyone, Fang Li recalled what happened when he escaped. At that time, although Fang Li had already jumped out of the facility, he vaguely heard the captain’s voice giving orders.
“At that time, the captain said something. We must first confirm the condition of ‘That’,” Fang Li couldn’t help but speak up. “The captain indeed said such a line.”
“That?” Sakuya Tachibana and Soma were slightly taken aback.
“That?” Hibari blinked her eyes, wearing a puzzled expression on her face.
“That…” Amamiya Rindou, just like Fang Li, furrowed his brows and even stopped smoking. He muttered, “What is it?”
Naturally, no one could recover or reply to that question. But there was one thing that could be determined from this and that was that there was definitely some invisible secret within the Russian Branch and that secret might be the root cause of Aphrodite’s actions.
“How about it? Do you need me to infiltrate the base again?” Fang Li said to Amamiya Rindou, “Although it will be more troublesome to act under these circumstances, I am confident that I can sneak in again as long as nothing accidental or surprising happens.”
After all, unless the secret of the Russian Branch was uncovered, Fang Li’s Side Quest couldn’t be completed.
And that was an A-Rank Side Quest with high difficulty, but also with high rewards.
If he didn’t complete this Quest, it would be much more troublesome for Fang Li to complete Main Quest Three and acquire the 5000 Exchange Points.
Anyway, there were no penalties for failing a Side Quest, so why not give it a try?
Of course, just because there were no penalties in the Main God’s Dimension didn’t mean that failing a Quest would guarantee being safe and sound.
If Fang Li’s infiltration of the Russian Branch was exposed, he would undoubtedly be devoured by the Fenrir Organization, just like the magical wolf capable of swallowing even gods, leaving nothing but bones.
However, when it came to danger, Fang Li had never been afraid to take risks.
Not knowing if he had sensed something from Fang Li’s tone, Amamiya Rindou hesitated for a moment before saying, “Infiltrating now is impossible. How about you join us tomorrow for the operational meeting at the Russian Branch?”
“Operational meeting?” Fang Li asked, “Is it for countering Aphrodite?”
“More precisely, it should be said to counter the upcoming Aragami army,” Amamiya Rindou said, “The time for the Aragami army’s full-scale attack is getting closer. According to calculations, the day after tomorrow, the Aragami army will arrive at the Russian Branch. If they attack at that time, this stronghold will be lost.”
“So, we must take the initiative and engage the enemy before the Aragami army arrives here, and if possible then we must annihilate them all,” Sakuya Tachibana added, taking over Amamiya Rindou’s words.
She looked at Fang Li and said, “In other words, after tomorrow’s operational meeting, we will have to launch a counterattack and intercept the Aragami army.”
“And the operational meeting will be held in the main facility. You’ll come with us then,” Amamiya Rindou looked at Fang Li and said, “During our meeting, you can take the opportunity to investigate and see if you can find anything.”
Fang Li couldn’t help but ponder for a moment. Was the operation going to take place tomorrow?
Then Fang Li would have to join in as well, right?
Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to complete Main Quest One and Main Quest Two.
Investigation and operation. Tomorrow, Fang Li had to do both at the same time.
“I understand,” Fang Li nodded at Amamiya Rindou and said, “Tomorrow, I will find a way to complete the mission.”
Amamiya Rindou finally smiled and said, “I look forward to your performance.”
It seemed that tomorrow was going to be a very long day.
