28: Conquer and find kryptonite!

At this moment, everyone present was stunned by Li An's promise.

What was he trying to do?

To speak such words so brazenly, wasn't he afraid of Lex Luthor hearing it, wasn't he afraid of being dismissed from his position before his seat was even warm?

Unless he had some backing, only then would he not worry about them spreading the word!

The few people present were all shrewd individuals, and Li An's thoughts were quickly understood by them, but even knowing this, there was no joy in their hearts; instead, they suddenly became nervous.

They had heard about the deeds of Li An, this parachuted supervisor. They heard that during the interview, he alone directly drove away all the applicants, and he wasn't harmed at all in the process. In the end, he even gained the heavy reliance of President Lex Luthor.

Does he want to attack us?

Thinking of this, the few vice supervisors present immediately took a step back, all looking at Li An with nervous eyes.

However, facing the tension and wariness on everyone's faces, Li An merely smiled faintly, clearly realizing that the people present did not intend to cooperate with him, so he chose to act directly.

The next second.

Only a strange hissing sound suddenly echoed in the office, like a roaring ghost. Immediately after, under everyone's terrified gaze, a mass of crimson gas suddenly rose from behind Li An, who was sitting, then transformed into tentacles, attacking them.

"No!!!"

Facing the rapidly approaching gaseous tentacles, the vice supervisors didn't even have time to react before being pierced by them, and then they froze in place.

"Oh, right, I can't forget you either."

As he decided to act, Li An suddenly seemed to remember something and turned his head directly to Dai Linna, who was standing beside him.

This secretary's identity must also be extraordinary. Li An, who can devour energy, can naturally sense energy, and he just happened to feel a strong life energy from within Dai Linna.

This means that this secretary should also be a master!

"Monster, go to Death!"

The moment Li An looked at Dai Linna, this beautiful secretary finally stopped hiding and chose to act.

She was Lex Luthor's secretary and senior bodyguard, and also a former special forces soldier with superb Combat Talent and anti-reconnaissance abilities. This time, she became Li An's secretary precisely at Lex Luthor's behest to monitor Li An.

It's just that perhaps even Lex Luthor himself hadn't expected Li An to completely disregard conventions, revealing his fangs directly after getting what he wanted.

"Death?"

"I won't die!"

Li An remained leaning back on the sofa, but with a slight shift of his body, he directly dodged Dai Linna's heavy kick, causing her attack to miss.

Then, Li An suddenly extended his left hand, and before Dai Linna could retract her leg, he grabbed her ankle. In the face of absolute strength, Li An directly slammed her onto the marble floor beneath his feet.

Bang!

With just one blow, Dai Linna was immediately sent sprawling, blood trickling down.

"Ah!"

Facing Li An's barbaric actions, Dai Linna shook her head, letting out an angry roar, but Li An had no intention of playing around with her. He directly extended his right index finger, which was wrapped in crimson gas, and quickly touched Dai Linna's forehead.

In an instant, Dai Linna, touched by Li An's index finger, immediately lost focus in her eyes, freezing on the spot, completely motionless.

Li An's movements were very fast; from the moment he started to the end, it only took a few seconds. At this point, he looked at the four motionless individuals, a satisfied smile appearing on his face.

Injecting crimson gas into the human body was an idea that Li An had coincidentally conceived. In the world of Prototype, by constantly killing and devouring, while rapidly evolving and becoming stronger, he also seemed to have devoured the negative energy of the devoured, which is to say, the killing, brutality, bloodlust, madness, and so on, contained within the Infected and mutants.

Therefore, Li An wanted to know what would happen if this gas, containing negative energy, was injected into the human body.

Would they be consumed by this extreme madness, bloodlust, and killing, sinking into monsters, or would they suffer mental Death directly?

Li An was very much looking forward to this!

But despite this, Li An did not forget his original purpose. Besides Dai Linna, he wanted the other three vice supervisors to surrender and pledge loyalty. If the situation was not right, he would extract the crimson gas from their bodies immediately to avoid accidental Death.

For now, it was not the time to kill.

After all, once someone died, the nature of the situation would change, and things would escalate.

In an instant, Li An had a plan in mind. He then collected his thoughts and began to closely observe the movements of the four. If anything seemed amiss, he would react immediately.

Just like that, only three minutes passed when one vice supervisor suddenly let out a piercing scream, a sound so tragic it was truly unheard of.

Seeing this, Li An immediately went to him, and the moment his raised index finger touched the other person, the crimson gas injected into his body was immediately reabsorbed by Li An.

"Devil, you are a devil!!!"

Ignoring the vice supervisor who had awakened as the crimson gas left his body, Li An had now arrived in front of the other two supervisors. These two were clearly unable to hold on either; he needed to retrieve the crimson gas from their bodies.

"You, who exactly are you?"

"No! Don't come near me, don't come near me!!!"

Then two more terrified shouts rang out. Undoubtedly, after enduring the invasion of the crimson gas, the vice supervisors' attitudes towards Li An had clearly become fearful. Although they had now regained their senses, they dared not look up at Li An at all.

"How interesting."

At this moment, Li An looked at Dai Linna, the only one still holding on. Only she was still persevering, showing no reaction.

But the moment this thought arose, Dai Linna, who had been motionless, suddenly began to tremble. Seeing this, Li An hesitated for a moment. He was not bloodthirsty; he merely wanted to test the results of the crimson gas entering the body.

Ultimately, Li An still reabsorbed the crimson gas from Dai Linna's body, freeing her from the ocean of despair shrouded in negative emotions.

"Devil, what did you do to me?"

Like the previous three, Dai Linna, who had regained consciousness, immediately moved quickly away from Li An. Her eyes were filled with terror, as if she had seen something utterly horrifying.

"That was just a little joke earlier."

"I wonder, do any of you have suggestions regarding my earlier proposal?"

Li An was still sitting in his previous spot, a faint smile on his face. He looked at the vice supervisors with a grin, as if everything that had happened earlier was just an illusion.

"No problem, naturally no problem."

"I'd be delighted to serve you!"

"Yes, yes, me too, me too."

"That's right, me too. We are all very willing to serve you."

When one person surrendered first, it was naturally impossible for the others to continue resisting. After all, for them, even dignity had to be predicated on being alive.

Of course, the most important point was that they no longer wanted to experience the mental torment of being enveloped by negative emotions.

"Very good, now let's talk about that thing I'm looking for!"

As the three vice supervisors successively expressed their allegiance, Li An finally put away his smile and began to discuss the main business.
