Graham wanted to cry but had no tears.
In his lifetime, he had fought in more than fifty battles, with victories and defeats too numerous to recount, but if he had to say when he felt most desperate, it was definitely today.
In fact, Bai Fu was not the strongest opponent he had encountered in his life.
Not to mention far-off foes, within the Truth Society, the Chairman was so powerful that it made him feel as if all his cultivation of Qi had been in vain.
During his battles against the Genetic Primordial, he had also been pushed to the brink by an Ace Agent of the Genetic Primordial, only surviving thanks to timely reinforcements.
But as strong and ruthless as those enemies were, in terms of birth, even if bundled together, they were not qualified to lick the toes of this young woman wearing a mask in front of him!
Not only were this woman's methods strangely unpredictable, she had even controlled him to swear at the Chairman with "Damn it!"
How many levels of Qi would it take to produce such a fierce act?
Graham almost passed out from the shock.
No one had ever dared use such filthy language to curse the Chairman to his face, and with the Chairman's temperament, no matter where he hid, the Chairman would definitely pursue him relentlessly, and the intensity of the pursuit would far surpass that of the previous chase after Bai Fu.
His chances of survival would tend toward zero, but even so, he still wanted to struggle, fearing nothing more than falling into the hands of the Chairman and suffering all the tortures known to mankind.
Looking at Bai Fu stepping on his chest, Graham glared with a fierce yet pitiful expression.
He glared for a long time.
"I can answer your questions, but you must guarantee I won't be killed by the Truth Society Chairman!"
Such a demand seemed too easy to fulfill.
Bai Fu stuck the Electric Knife into the ground, crossed her arms, and her figure loomed like towering mountains on the brink of toppling.
Graham stared for a long time, suspecting Bai Fu was deceiving him, but he had no choice but to trust her at this point.
Bai Fu directly took out a map and a pen from her bag and threw them to Graham, moving her foot away in the process.
Graham didn't make any superfluous moves; he quickly pointed out locations on the map.
"There are four bases in total, and there are more than these bases of the Truth Society, but I only know the specific locations of these four. Among them, the Black Hawk Base where Julia's relatives and friends are held is within the Old Republic." He handed the map back to Bai Fu. "But I have to tell you some bad news."
"The Chairman captured Julia's relatives and friends to prevent Julia from escaping. Upon learning this, some of them chose suicide to avoid dragging Julia down, and the Chairman has been keeping this from Julia."
She wasn't in a position to judge the decision of those who committed suicide. She only knew that she couldn't tell Julia this news now, fearing that if Julia lost control and was killed by the Truth Society Chairman in a rampage, the mission chain would break.
Graham said, "I'll remind you again, the Chairman now knows I've defected, so you need to act quickly. Otherwise, by the time you find those bases, the people inside may have already evacuated."
His reminder was sincere.
Having defected, he now hoped that the Genetic Primordial could use his intelligence to deal a heavy blow to the Truth Society, giving the Chairman no time to focus on him.
Bai Fu said, "Your reminder is valuable. I have a few more questions to ask you."
"What major powerhouses and heavy weapons should we be wary of at Black Hawk Base?"
Graham did not conceal anything: "Most of the people there can't even defeat me, let alone pose a threat to you, but there is one person you must be careful of. His name is Qi Yuan, a Mechanic, and he can match hundreds of men by himself."
This profession set Bai Fu on alert.
Aside from Xia Shi, this Qi Yuan would be the second Mechanic she had encountered.
Xia Shi's combat power wasn't impressive, but he could make something as powerful as Power Armor, so how formidable would a Mechanic deemed noteworthy by Graham be?
Note to self for later.
Bai Fu asked, "What do you know about the Truth Society Chairman, tell me."
Graham was silent for a while: "He's very strong, the strongest I've ever met, no, to be precise, he's not human."
"Hmm?" Bai Fu pressed, "Not human, what do you mean?"
Graham said, "I overheard this unintentionally from Bernardo, he said that the Chairman is an Artificial Human, perhaps that's the reason for his unnaturally strong power."
Artificial Humans were different from the Mutants Bai Fu had dealt with before, who were usually transformed by injections of Potions. The origin of Artificial Humans was much more complex.
Just like the Artificial Humans in Dragon Ball, the Artificial Humans of Ancestral Origin Star also had human modifications, mechanical modifications, and were cultivated from cells in various ways.
After Graham finished speaking, an agreeable prompt sounded in Bai Fu's ear.
[You have triggered a hidden storyline, Exploration Degree of Ancestral Origin Star +0.3%]
For her, this was completely an unexpected bonus. 0.3% of an Exploration Degree meant she was one step closer to becoming the Main Character of a certain region's storyline, or even the Main Character of a certain version.
Of course, the game prompt revealed far more than just this, it corroborated Graham's statement—the Truth Society Chairman really was an Artificial Human, and the fact that he was an Artificial Human was very important to the main storyline!
Seeing that Bai Fu had fallen silent, Graham couldn't help but ask, "Do you have any other questions?"
