I’m the Mysterious Leader of the Salvation Organization

This island is alive.

Bai Yan and his companions couldn’t understand how it came into existence, but deep inside, they knew that the person who created it must possess incredible skills in alchemy.

"It’s a little bit like me, but also different."

Kaluoer tilted her head slightly. Her body had undergone various modifications, and over a third of it was no longer flesh and blood.

And this island, not only being an island, is also a living being.

It was a creation born from the fusion of inanimate and living entities, a product of a certain kind of alchemy. Perhaps similar in principle to a golem, it already had a history of no less than a thousand years.

Bai Yan nodded and said, "It is indeed different, and the differences are quite significant. You were originally a living being… but the island beneath our feet was originally inanimate, yet it has been transformed into a living entity. The technical difficulty of this is much higher."

Transforming inanimate objects into living beings is indeed a very difficult task, but for Bai Yan, who existed in the present time, it was not something completely unfamiliar.

After all, the cybertyrant Amy had already created two brand new races.

The extraordinary power can accomplish all sorts of strange things, and all sorts of inexplicable situations may occur.

At this moment, the living island showed no signs of any unusual activity, as if there were no abnormalities… Although its existence itself was an extraordinary situation that should not be underestimated.

Bai Yan smiled slightly and analyzed, saying:

"Queen Aphrora believed that the philosopher’s stone she desired must be on this island, but it was hidden away by something… Now, it was time to solve the puzzle."

Hmm, a puzzle to solve… But for him, who possessed a special connection, there wasn’t really a puzzle to solve, only a moment of unraveling the mystery.

My extraordinary powers, while not very helpful in direct combat, proved to be cheating-level means of gathering intelligence.

Bai Yan gently placed his hand on the ground, and a silvery glow shimmered in his eyes as he activated his innate gift called "Connection."

In an instant, thousands of pieces of information flooded his mind. He immediately began sifting through the sea of data, searching for the useful fragments. Within a few short moments, he discovered a genuine clue that he truly needed.

"Um, right here."

Bai Yan nodded gently and reached out his hand to Evie, speaking in a calm tone, "Hold onto my arm."

"I don’t."

Evie refused without hesitation, blinked her eyes.

Her tone, just like when refusing Cola with ice, was calm and swift, without hesitation.

Bai Yan could only explain, "With your abilities, you cannot go underground, and Kaluoer’s power cannot take you either, so I will have to use magic to take you there."

"Okay then."

Evie let out a sigh and reached out, grabbing the man’s hand directly.

"An arm is enough."

Bai Yan spoke up to remind Evie, but she seemed not to hear and still held onto his hand tightly.

Hmmm… Bai Yan started to understand Evie’s thoughts a bit and didn’t use his psychic powers to investigate. He looked towards Kaluoer, who was not far away.

Kaluoer took a step forward and vanished out of sight.

"Thank you."

Evie remained silent for a while and then gratefully said, "I went back on my promise. All this time, I thought of myself as a protector, but I couldn’t really protect my sister. You are the true Savior of Kaluoer."

"Really, thank you very much."

Evie’s eyes welled up with tears as she spoke these words.

"Kaluoer likes you."

Ding dong.

Wow, that was straightforward! Can’t we always stay in sync?

Bai Yan remained silent, quietly listening, without saying a word.

"If she likes you, then I would also be willing to offer myself to you," Evie continued, her voice devoid of discontent and any ulterior motives.

But Bai Yan furrowed his brow and said in a steady tone, "Miss Evie, you are not a mere accessory or gift for Kaluoer. In fact, both of you are independent individuals with your own personalities. Perhaps you need to learn to respect yourself."

Evie’s face suddenly turned slightly red, and she exclaimed, "But, Kaluoer and I share the same emotions in our hearts. Even now, as I hold your hand, I can feel her excitement… In reality, we can both only marry one person, after all!"

She could express herself so clearly, reaching such a level, which was already the utmost limit!

Indeed, this is too realistic.

Bai Yan pondered the situation for a moment and felt that indeed, this was an inescapable problem.

In reality, Bai Yan was feeling a bit inclined to say a classic quote right now.

"I actually have other wings in my heart."

But he always felt that if he said it out loud, it would make him seem emotionally unintelligent, even though it was true… But being emotionally unintelligent simply meant stating facts that others didn’t like.

So Bai Yan decided to remain silent for the time being.

In reality, he didn’t actually want to clarify things at the moment.

In his heart, Bai Yan understood how selfish he was and how strong his desire for control and dominance was. Perhaps he had a fear of hurting her feelings, as well as a fear of causing trouble and affecting the "Babel Tower" game.

But in truth, perhaps it was the flawed nature of these humans that served as the primary reason why he didn’t truly want to clarify things.

Bai Yan understood a harsh reality very clearly, that if he truly could only choose one girl… the final chosen one would definitely not be Kaluoer!

The cruel thing is, Kaluoer probably had no idea about this at all.

In the end, she only knew her own side.

What everyone admires equally, with 100% love for anyone, all of that is just nonsense. Even if it can deceive others, it can’t deceive oneself at all.

If he rejected Kaluoer, she would probably feel sad.

But if he rejected that girl… even someone like himself would feel heartbroken.

Bai Yan, a morally flexible person, was actually very aware of human reality. He understood who showed him favor and knew who he had feelings for. Furthermore, he was fully aware of his inner greed and vileness.

However, Bai Yan also knew something in his heart.

In Noah’s world, both extraordinary individuals and nobles, regardless of gender, were allowed to legally have multiple partners and create a "harem." It could even be said that this was encouraged by law, as extraordinary individuals had a greater likelihood of giving birth to extraordinary offspring. Therefore, in every nation, the law openly encouraged extraordinary individuals to have multiple wives and bear many children.

Even in Noah’s ancient era, ordinary people in the tribe were once only allowed to procreate with extraordinary individuals, and defeated female extraordinary individuals would be captured and continuously bred.

These were practices that were in line with the tribe’s best interests and considerations for survival.

It is said that all current sorcerers actually have ancestral bloodline from the Anomalous Star.

So, Noah’s world had moral values that were completely different from Earth’s.

Regardless of whether it was Ms. Peggie, who truly had a harem, or the Leaf King, or many extraordinary individuals he knew who had multiple partners, they were not looked down upon by World.

Noah’s view on "love" had never been tied to the element of "one-on-one", but rather closer to the feudal society of Earth.

So, they might not necessarily be unable to accept the idea of having multiple partners.

But deep down, he wasn’t a pure Noah, and the moral values of Earth still held his inner self from fully being "flexible", always feeling that his actions were deceitful and betraying.

"Hello, why aren’t you speaking?" Evie shouted, her face turning red.

How frustrating! I’ve already expressed myself so openly, and yet you don’t give any feedback at all!

Bai Yan paused for a moment, giving a faint smile, and said, "I was just morally questioning myself… Although, I have always believed that I have no moral boundaries, but it seems that the reality is different."

"What is it?"

Evie’s mind was filled with little question marks, completely unaware of Bai Yan’s contemplation.

"Are you thinking too much?"

She chuckled and suddenly said, "Are you asking me if I have feelings for you…? Let me tell you, throughout these years, I haven’t seen any true love between couples. Actually, just a little liking is enough. If two people don’t dislike each other, that’s already considered a standard for marriage."

As Evie spoke, she muttered softly under her breath:

"If you really can’t, then find a way to make me like you even more."

Love in stories is rarely seen in reality, and most people’s lives are just making do.

Bai Yan also felt that he had been overthinking in the end.

The things that one has done to strangers that were not quite moral are actually quite numerous, with flexible boundaries.

However, when facing important people, one always becomes somewhat conflicted.

"Ah, if only he had believed that "Babel Tower" was just a game from start to finish, then perhaps he wouldn’t have needed to ponder so much."

"Go down."

Bai Yan smiled and stopped speaking unnecessary words.

The most important thing at the moment was to finish the game "Babel Tower."

Saving World, saving Babel Tower, was definitely the top priority.

In the face of World’s fate, talking about love and romance was not worth mentioning at all.

He immediately grabbed Evie tightly. In an instant, the two of them arrived at the center of the island.

Inside the center of this mysterious island, there stood a gigantic crimson platform made of flesh and blood.

And, hanging in mid-air, there was a heart the size of hundreds of meters, rhythmically pulsating.

Kaluoer had been waiting here for a while, looking expressionlessly towards the sky. Bai Yan and Evie also arrived by her side, gazing together at the enormous heart.

It was filled with power, constantly throbbing, as numerous vibrant blue and purple patterns adorned its surroundings.

With each heartbeat, the blue and purple patterns would tremble slightly, emitting a brilliant golden glow that caused the entire massive platform to shimmer intensely. The visual effect was truly magnificent.

Bai Yan didn’t hesitate, and he directly used the power of "Connection."

In his eyes, silver flames flickered.

He saw many things, even catching a glimpse of Queen Aphrora’s presence in the traces of the past here.

So that’s how it was.

At that moment, Bai Yan understood everything.

"You see, there are many symbols on the heart."

Bai Yan’s voice was calm as he raised his jet-black staff and pointed it towards his heart.

"The magnificent heart was her chosen splendid altar, and the Philosopher’s Stone had already been infused into her bloodstream… Aphrora, the ancient queen, wanted to find the path to becoming a goddess through this ceremony."

"This is the unfinished Ultimate Ritual, a path to become the most evil deity, formed by countless souls sacrificed as offerings."

He paused for a moment and continued, "Am I right, respected Queen?"

"We are the Babel Tower, once helped you, long time no see… Today, let us take your life."
