Chapter 189: Bang, Bang, Bang!
Chapter 189: Bang, Bang, Bang!
Forcing others to bow to you? What kind of ability is that?
With a curious blink of his fox-like eyes, the red-haired Inspector showed great interest and asked, "What's the specific cost? What's the price? Are there any consequences if it fails?"
These...seemed to be non-existent?
Lyon furrowed his brows, a bit uncertain, and said, "I think they're all very low, but the target range is a bit narrow, and it can only affect those who meet the conditions."
"I see."
After some thought, the red-haired Inspector made a direct proposal, "If you're sure there won't be any cost, why don't you try it on me?"
Should he try it on the Inspector? Upon hearing the red-haired Inspector's suggestion, Lyon's heart stirred.
Regarding the effect of the Holy Spirit Badge, he had always been curious to know if it would work on the 'Elite Power' of this world. The Inspector, with his formidable strength and the assurance that he wouldn't be harmed regardless of success or failure, was undoubtedly the perfect test subject.
"Then I'll give it a shot!"
Seizing this great opportunity, Lyon immediately switched to the King of Traveling Thrush badge and looked into the Inspector's eyes. Speaking slowly, he asked, "Why aren't you bowing to me?"
"It's activated by language...huh?"
As Lyon's words fell, the red-haired Inspector's body trembled slightly. He then stood up from his chair with crisp efficiency and bowed deeply with great force. However, there was a sturdy large desk between them...
"Bang!"
Holy crap!
Watching the Inspector bang his forehead on the table, Lyon couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. The Inspector, with a slightly red face, coughed and said, covering the crack on the table with an approved document, "Well...the activation is incredibly stealthy, especially since it happens so suddenly that even I didn't react in time. Overall, it's excellent."
"..."
Ah, yes, yes!
"Don't think I'm making things up."
Seeing Lyon's eyes, the Inspector, who had just lost face, clenched his fist and explained, "I was afraid that if the resistance was too intense, it might cause you harm due to excessive consumption, so I deliberately restrained my strength and even intentionally cooperated. That's why it turned out this way...um...why don't you try again? This time, I'm sure I can block it!"
"That...won't be necessary, right?"
Hearing the Inspector's invitation, Lyon, sensing that something was amiss, smiled awkwardly and shook his head. "It's just a test of strength. Since it worked when you weren't paying attention, it will definitely work on those rogues. Testing it this far is enough."
"Not enough, not enough."
The Inspector ground his molars and smiled, "When it comes to testing, we should always strive for as much detail as possible. How can we be perfunctory?"
"Alright then..."
Under the Inspector's 'warm invitation,' Lyon returned to his original position, then suggested with some hesitation, "Um...how about we change locations? Maybe somewhere a little further from this desk..."
"No need! Let's do it right here."
"..."
Seeing the glint in his Inspector's eyes, Lyon hoped the badge's effect wouldn't be too powerful. He then steeled himself and said, "You...bow to me?"
"Bang!"
The moment Leon finished speaking, the 'King of Traveling Thrush' emblem on the badge panel flickered slightly, and the red-haired director suddenly stood up again, firmly banging her head on the desk!
"..."
"..."
Damn!
Seeing the director maintaining a bowing posture towards herself, her buttocks sticking out as she lay on the table, and especially her rapidly reddening ears, Leon's mouth twitched uncontrollably.
After these two head-bangs, I won't be in trouble later, will I?
"Um..."
"Again!"
The red-haired director, her forehead now smeared with ink from the files as she sat back down in disbelief, gritted her teeth and explained:
"I was a little careless just now. This time, I'll use the anomaly to block it together, and my resistance might increase several times over. If you can't bear the consumption, stop immediately, and don't try to show off!"
"..."
Looking at the 'Approved' character imprinted on her forehead, the clearly agitated red-haired director made Leon cling to his last shred of hope as he tried to refuse: "Director, I have something to do later. How about we continue the test another day..."
"Come on!"
"..."
"Do you... want to bow to me?"
"Boom!!!"
The third time she stood up, the chair tied to her buttocks, along with a large section of the foundation pulled out of the ground by her long red hair, gave Leon another solid bang. The red-haired director, now completely bewildered, slowly sat back down, feeling like her entire worldview had been reshaped.
This doesn't make sense!
As the owner of the highest Lyon value, over seventy, and with the 'Blood-Killing' No. 013, ordinary anomalies couldn't possibly force us to bow! To forcibly compel such a combination to bow, perhaps only the 'Master of Bowing' or the 'God of Kowtowing' themselves could do so in the flesh! But would there be such a bored true god in this world? Or perhaps...
Glancing at the somewhat anxious Leon before her, the red-haired director fell silent for a moment before weakly waving her hand.
"Just now... I was a little too hasty... Hmm... Why don't you go and attend to your matters first? I... I need some time alone..."
"Okay!"
Without asking who 'time alone' referred to, Leon hurriedly left the director's office without even wiping the dust off his clothes.
Watching his hasty departure, the red-haired director, whose mind was almost as chaotic as a stirred pot of porridge, couldn't help but laugh. Then, she shook her head in confusion.
Little Leon's rank is probably even more outrageous than I imagined... Hmm... But if used well, it might have a miraculous effect in critical situations?
