After hearing this, Doctor Zhao was first stunned, then stood up with a troubled expression on his face, seeming somewhat puzzled: “Wh-what do you mean… ‘join’? Are you some kind of organization?”

He had originally wanted to visit each room to consolidate interpersonal relationships within this organization, but never expected that another organization had infiltrated and was preparing to recruit him directly here.

“There’s no need to view the concept of ‘organization’ so importantly anymore.” Yan Zhichun said. “Doctor… do you want to get out?”

“Get out…?” Doctor Zhao was stunned. “I-I of course want to…”

Hearing Doctor Zhao’s decisive answer, Yan Zhichun knew there were only two paths before her.

Right now, the total number of “Jidao” members was unknown, most people’s abilities were unknown. Wanting to destroy the display screens and the giant bell while carrying so many unknown factors was naturally no easy task. But if they had Doctor Zhao who could disintegrate objects, this desperate plan might gain a bit more of an ethereal success rate.

This was the first path. The difficulty lay in needing to pull Doctor Zhao, a deputy leader of “Heaven’s Mouth,” to join “Jidao.”

But this also had a fatal problem. Since “Jidao” hadn’t recruited new members for a long time, all current members were veterans. This not only indicated they were capable, but also that they were trustworthy. Except for Xiao Xiao who had only joined “Jidao” for a few cycles, the vast majority of the remaining people could be considered fairly senior “Jidao” members. Executing missions with these people provided no small sense of security.

If such an important mission were entrusted to Doctor Zhao, and he fled at the critical moment, although the mission wouldn’t necessarily fail, it would greatly shake morale.

So maintaining the status quo was the second path.

“Miss, why are you suddenly asking this…?” Doctor Zhao said. “Most of the people here probably want to escape.”

Yan Zhichun looked toward Jiang Ruoxue, then asked softly: “Ruoxue, if you activate ‘Cause and Effect,’ can you require the other party to do what I say?”

After hearing this, Jiang Ruoxue smiled bitterly: “Zhichun… requiring the other party to do what you say, how does this sound like ‘Cause and Effect’? It’s clearly ‘Seizing Hearts.'”

Yan Zhichun knew what Jiang Ruoxue said was correct. Even if it was “Cause and Effect,” it could only ensure the other party joined “Jidao,” but every detailed decision after the other party joined “Jidao” would depend on their own thoughts and couldn’t be directly controlled through “Cause and Effect.”

Even if she really made Doctor Zhao join “Jidao,” Doctor Zhao might still flee at the critical moment.

“What…?” Doctor Zhao was clearly stunned. “Free all people from the suffering of reincarnation…?”

“Right. As long as you can promise to help me with something, the probability of liberating everyone will greatly increase.” Yan Zhichun said. “The opportunity is right in front of you. Now it just needs one choice from you.”

“This…” Doctor Zhao was slightly stunned after hearing this. “I get to choose…? What do you need me to do?”

“I need you to help me destroy a large piece of equipment.” Yan Zhichun answered. “Specifically what it is can’t be said right now, but tomorrow morning you’ll need to depart with Jiang Ruoxue. After arriving at the mission location, I’ll tell you what to do. Is that okay?”

Doctor Zhao narrowed his eyes cautiously, feeling the situation was a bit strange: “Destroying something, but you can’t say what… is it something very important?”

Yan Zhichun sighed deeply and replied: “More or less.”

“Could it be equipment for a certain ‘Zodiac’ game?” Doctor Zhao asked again.

“Also… more or less.” Yan Zhichun answered. “So this path is a bit dangerous, but your ability happens to align with this mission, so I wanted to ask if you’re willing to be this savior. Of course, if you’re unwilling…”

After hearing this, Doctor Zhao’s expression clearly showed emotion. He knew his own capabilities. Being able to barely survive in this kind of place was already no easy feat. Now someone was actually saying he was the “savior”?

Wait… why did the word “savior” sound so familiar?

While several people were talking, another figure walked to the doorway. The figure timidly looked into the room, then called out softly: “Doctor Zhao…?”

Everyone turned to look. The newcomer was short with messy hair.

“Han Yimo? You’ve come at just the right time…” Doctor Zhao said. “There’s something you might be willing to participate in…”

After hearing this, Han Yimo smiled slightly. He of course wanted to participate. When passing by the doorway, he just happened to hear the three words “savior.”

He knew his mission as the protagonist was coming.

But Yan Zhichun’s expression instantly became cold, and she said with some suspicion: “Was it you eavesdropping at the door just now?”

“What? Eavesdropping…?” Han Yimo immediately shook his head. “How is that possible? When I saw Doctor Zhao delivering food, he stayed at your place for a long time, so I came to see if he was alright.”

“It wasn’t him…” Zheng Yingxiong also said from the side. “That person’s scent was very powerful, not this cowardly.”

“Co-cowardly?!” Han Yimo got angry upon hearing this. The protagonist in a novel couldn’t be called cowardly. “You kid, don’t talk nonsense if you don’t understand! Who are you calling cowardly? I have a pile of lives on my hands!”

Zheng Yingxiong looked at Han Yimo indifferently, as if looking at a child even younger than himself.

“Don’t argue, don’t argue.” Doctor Zhao quickly mediated. “We’re all on the same side. Miss…”

He looked toward Yan Zhichun, then asked with a smile: “Brother Han Yimo and I have lived and died together for quite a while. Do you want to bring him along too? That way I’ll have someone I trust. If he goes, I’ll go.”

Yan Zhichun had actually met Han Yimo once. When she first came to “Heaven’s Mouth,” this man had summoned a pitch-black giant sword and killed randomly in the room, looking exactly like an immortal cultivator in a fantasy story. Perhaps he had some rare “Sword Control” ability. If such a powerful ability were added, perhaps the success rate of destruction would be even greater.

That day, a gold ingot had inexplicably appeared on her body.

Yan Zhichun was about to speak, but for safety’s sake, she first looked toward Zheng Yingxiong.

Zheng Yingxiong understood, lifted his nose and sniffed lightly, then after a few seconds said: “Attracting Disaster.”

“Attracting Disaster…?”

Yan Zhichun was slightly stunned, not understanding how “Attracting Disaster” could be connected to “Sword Control.”

But her experience walking in the “Land of the End” for so long told her that an ability called “Attracting Disaster” sounded ominous. It would be better not to use it than to take the risk, so she could only refuse: “Forget about ‘Attracting Disaster.’ Doctor Zhao, if he’s following along, you shouldn’t go either.”

“Hey, hey, hey?” Han Yimo immediately stepped forward. “What kind of talk is this! My ability is very strong… Didn’t I just tell you?! I have countless lives on my hands!”

“No thanks.” Yan Zhichun said. “I can’t possibly stake so many people’s lives on ‘Attracting Disaster.’ If Doctor Zhao is willing to go alone, I welcome it, but you two together is out of the question.”
