73: mantis

After absorbing the ability, Shi Yan sat back down on the stool behind the light red round table.

On the light red round table were two white sheets of paper, blank like ordinary A4 paper.

These blank papers were the tools to determine whether the residents were satisfied; if they smeared their blood on these papers and were satisfied, the paper would turn into specks of white light and dissipate; if they were not satisfied, nothing would happen.

The method of use and specific effects had been transmitted into Shi Yan's mind along with the location of the Management Office previously.

Shi Yan leisurely crossed his legs, leaned back against the pure white wall behind him, and quietly waited for the next dispute.

He wondered what difficult scenarios other players were currently facing.

Shi Yan thought idly in his heart.

Just because Shi Yan resolved the situation easily did not mean this dungeon was not difficult; it only seemed easy because Shi Yan was too strong.

The two rat-men who just came in were one level nineteen and the other level twenty; just their levels alone could suppress most players in this dungeon.

Moreover, players acting as administrators were not just responsible for judging who was right and wrong in a dispute; most importantly, players also had to personally punish the offending party.

Therefore, if one's strength was not enough, they might very likely be killed by the offending party for revenge; although they were administrators, they were also weak, and in the Magic World, the weak had no human rights.

A cold wind blew, interrupting Shi Yan's thoughts.

A series of crisp footsteps slowly sounded from the left side of the Management Office, getting closer and closer.

A black high-heeled shoe stepped out from the left, revealing a purple-black long dress, followed by a slender waist that could be held in one hand, adorned with a delicate and beautiful bright purple belt with sparkling crystals.

Half of a woman's body emerged from the left side of the Management Office's entrance, indicating that the person was likely very beautiful.

Indeed.

As the woman took another step forward, a woman with delicate features and long black hair entered Shi Yan's line of sight.

The woman had an excellent figure, with two exquisite ears hidden beneath layers of black hair, subtly revealing two small red jewels hanging from them.

She exuded an elegant and noble aura.

Shi Yan did not pay attention to the woman's appearance; instead, he immediately used the skill [Information Detection] on her.

[Mantis Woman Lv42]

[Constitution: 5802]

[Soul: 5092]

Shi Yan narrowed his eyes, straightened his posture, and looked at the woman at the door with a slight smile.

"Hello, is there something I can help you with?"

Shi Yan asked with an inquiring gaze, his tone very gentle.

He always showed sufficient respect to the strong, especially when he was on a mission like this.

"I want to know how I can make him fall in love with me."

The woman's slightly melancholic voice slowly sounded, as she simultaneously pulled a man from her right side.

Only then did Shi Yan notice that to the woman's right, which was to Shi Yan's left facing the Management Office's entrance, there was indeed another person.

Before, because this person had been standing behind the left wall, Shi Yan had not seen him.

The man was very handsome, but at this moment, his face was pale, his eyes revealed fear, and all his limbs and mouth were tightly wrapped in some unknown white substance.

"Woo woo woo."

When the man saw Shi Yan, a glimmer of hope flashed in his terrified eyes; he struggled continuously, seemingly wanting to say something to Shi Yan, but his mouth was sealed shut, unable to utter a word.

Shi Yan was also stunned by this situation, his mouth twitched, and the smile on his face almost broke.

He recalled some knowledge he had seen before, that female mantises were said to eat male mantises after certain events; could such things also happen in the Magic World?

His thoughts were fleeting.

"I can tell."

"Actually, he has always been deeply in love with you."

Shi Yan first frowned, pretending to observe the man, then his expression changed as if he understood something, and he said to the woman in a deep voice.

"Really?"

The melancholic expression on the woman's face slowly dissipated, and the sadness in her voice lessened by several points.

"Woo woo woo!"

The man's struggles suddenly intensified, his eyes wide with shock and a hint of hatred as he stared at Shi Yan.

However, neither Shi Yan nor the woman paid him any attention.

"Absolutely guaranteed!"

"To be honest, I was once a master psychologist, knowledgeable about all psychologies in the world."

"He, in fact, has a psychological disorder called Mariola Bipolar Emotional Disorder."

Shi Yan's expression was serious, his eyes very firm, and his voice calm, making people feel that he was very confident and assured.

"Mariola Bipolar Emotional Disorder? What kind of illness is that?"

The woman showed a hint of curiosity, blinking her large eyes as she looked at Shi Yan.

"The most obvious symptom of this illness is that when facing someone they like, they will be very afraid and want to stay away from her."

Upon hearing this, the woman's eyes lit up, and she nodded, seemingly confirming that Shi Yan was right.

"But this is actually because he feels inferior and self-doubts that he is not worthy of you, which is why he exhibits these symptoms."

"The solution is not difficult..."

Shi Yan slowly paused.

"What do I need? Master, please tell me quickly!"

The woman couldn't help but urge Shi Yan anxiously.

"I need to first check your specific constitution."

"Just cut off a small finger and show it to me."

Shi Yan said in a deep voice.

The woman did not hesitate after hearing this; her right hand flashed, and her left pinky finger flew onto the light red round table in front of Shi Yan, she didn't even blink when she cut it.

Such speed...

Shi Yan's eyes narrowed; even he had only seen a green afterimage just now.

Moreover, the severed finger on the woman's left hand already showed signs of growing back, looking like a new finger would regrow soon.

"Congratulations, your constitution just meets the requirements."

Shi Yan picked up the pinky finger, feigning observation, and said with an expression that suggested she was very lucky.

"You just need to continuously influence him in your own way, and this illness will be perfectly resolved."

Shi Yan gave the solution.

The restrained man had already given up struggling, only staring fixedly at Shi Yan, as if wanting to engrave Shi Yan's face deep into his soul.

"Thank you, Master!"

The woman nodded thoughtfully after hearing this.

"You're welcome. If you think I did a good job, please give me a good review."

Shi Yan picked up the white paper from the table and handed it to the woman.

The woman lightly touched the white paper with her index finger, a drop of blood squeezed from her fingertip and fell onto the white paper, which immediately scattered into specks of white light and disappeared.

"Then I'll be going now."

The woman bid farewell to Shi Yan, gently grabbed the man with her right hand, and walked back in the direction she came from.
