“We just followed what you did,” Lin Sanjiu replied blandly as she looked up and threw a glance at her new team member. “We asked Siri a couple of questions. But, before we discuss this, I want to ask you a question.”

Lin Sanjiu wasn’t really bothered by the question she was about to ask, but now found it necessary, just based on the fact that Silvan actually joined their group.

The blond man tilted his head curiously; his expression was a little like a puppy.

“Where are your teammates?”

Silvan paused for a second and seemed somewhat shocked. Then, he rubbed his head of fluffy gold hair and exhaled, “Are you asking this because you know that the Munition Factory always operates in teams, or because you’ve seen me before?”

Before Lin Sanjiu could reply, he suddenly laughed, “Oh, you must have seen me before.”

“How can you be so sure?” Lin Sanjiu couldn’t help asking.

“Well, I can feel that you don’t have a good impression of me,” Silvan looked childish when he tilted his head, grinning. Even in the darkness, his teeth looked white. “Yeah, basically, very few women refuse to tell me their names.”

It was obvious to all of them that he tried to be modest when he said that.

That was just the honest truth. That didn’t only apply to females. After a short conversation, Reno quickly told Silvan his name and his hometown. Thankfully, the two kids were still clear-headed and rational. They withheld sensitive information such as their abilities and Lin Sanjiu’s name.

Lin Sanjiu had no interest to reveal her name to other people who came from the Twelve Worlds Centrum. She only gave a slight dismissive hum, “I’ve seen you before, but don’t try to change the subject. Where are your previous teammates?”

“They’ve died in the line of duty,” though his voice sounded just as pleasing, his answer sounded much colder.

Lin Sanjiu was stunned. “Was that residential building that hard to deal with?”

“Regarding that matter, we can slowly talk about it after we leave this place,” Silvan did not ask Lin Sanjiu when she had seen him. He lowered his head so that his fringe cast a shadow over his eyes, “Now, tell me, what did you ask Siri?”

Reno cleared his throat, “Siri only informed us about a few rules, so we organized our thoughts and came up with many questions. We simply asked her each of those questions one by one.”

First, Reno asked Siri if she knew the location of the target books that had already been found.

Siri replied that she didn’t know.

“Now, I am sure the third book is with the people from the south wing,” Reno said with an excited expression. “Even if Siri doesn’t know, it doesn’t affect us. I was shocked when she answered my next question. Weren’t you guys worried about the people in the west wing? Just wait and see.”

The teenage boy coughed. He looked rather enthusiastic. Before the others could react, he suddenly shouted, “Siri, can you announce the number of people in each team?”

All of them were shocked. No one expected Reno to suddenly ask that question. This was quickly followed by Siri’s monotonous voice which rang out over the speakers, “Okay. Central Hall, three members. West Wing, four members. East Wing, one member. South Wing, eleven members.”

Right after Siri said “eleven members”, a commotion was instantly created. Even though Lin Sanjiu and her team were more or less mentally prepared, they were quite taken aback when they heard what Siri said and almost suspected that they had heard her wrong. Siri’s report clearly referred to the number of people who were still alive. If they were to add the duoluozhong that Rena and Silvan had killed previously, the south wing actually started out with thirteen members.

Lin Sanjiu couldn’t believe that so many duoluozhongs would just obediently stay upstairs.

The people from the west wing cut loose a barrage of expletives, “What the f*ck? They have way more members than us, how are we supposed to fight?”

“They’re duoluozhongs! How did they manage to infiltrate this place?”

Coincidentally, Siri heard that particular remark made by someone and she replied emotionlessly, “Anyone with a number on their back can join one of the five teams in this event. This is not limited to specific species.”

“So, Siri can be used like this. How interesting.” The woman from the south wing made a sudden comment. The commotion stopped instantly. The woman’s voice was a little deep and she dragged her words. It was difficult to imagine that a duoluozhong could speak in that manner.

“But, it’s alright. Although we lost two members, we are definitely going to earn all the lives,” the woman declared after laughing.

“Why can duoluozhongs enter a pocket dimension?” Lin Sanjiu couldn’t help asking Silvan.

Apart from Lin Sanjiu, all the posthumans present were from the Twelve Worlds Centrum. Evidently, duoluozhongs entering a pocket dimension wasn’t something shocking to them.

“Low-level duoluozhongs are like normal humans. They can’t enter a pocket dimension and they can’t go to another world,” Silvan gave Lin Sanjiu a quick glance and whispered, “But, duoluozhongs can also evolve.”

Lin Sanjiu immediately remembered the flying duoluozhongs she had seen in Hyperthermal Hell. She could feel the blonde man’s warm breath down her neck and she rubbed her neck unconsciously as if to erase that sensation.

“Since the other team has so many more members, I think the mushroom heads will be willing to help us,” Silvan said acidly as he stood up. He turned to Reno and smiled, “Now I know why you said we don’t have to worry about them.”

With this morale boost, the teenage boy grinned and added, “There’s more!” After that, he began telling the team all the information he had obtained. Though Lin Sanjiu came up with the idea to ask Siri more questions, she didn’t expect that Reno could dig out that much information. With that information, they managed to come up with a plan.

“Right now, the South Wing team already know that we have two books, so, we will be their main target. Meanwhile, the West Wing team had also switched off their light,” Lin Sanjiu stressed as if to reaffirm their plan. “We will move in pairs. I will team up with Rena. Reno, go with him… We need to avoid their attacks and search the main areas mentioned in Siri’s clue. But, we don’t know the English title of the last book, so it is a bit troublesome.”

“Speaking of which…” Silvan suddenly said softly before he removed a small detachable part of his battle goggles. After that, he said a line of fluent English. He instantly sounded different from before. His words did not have that sort of strange enunciation.

Lin Sanjiu was stunned. Silvan slowly replaced the detachable part back on his goggles and smiled at her, “What were you saying?”

Lin Sanjiu sighed, “Nothing.”

“The Twelve Worlds Centrum is an extraordinary place.”
