"Hello, Ms. Cattleya, I am Wayne Kent."

While Lin Ruo was sizing up Admiral of Stars Cattleya and greeting her, Cattleya was also subconsciously sizing up Lin Ruo.

Her deep violet eyes, possessing a natural ability to see through things, narrowed, resembling an abyss capable of devouring souls, filled with an indescribable sense of mystery.

But then, Cattleya froze, because she didn't see any changes in Lin Ruo. It was as if her eyes, which usually caused her some trouble when not sealed by glasses, had suddenly failed. Lin Ruo looked the same as he did before she activated her ability.

But this shouldn't be!

Based on Cattleya's past experiences, she should at least be able to see the situation of Wayne Kent's astral body deep within his etheric body.

Cattleya immediately realized that the person in front of her was definitely not as simple and harmless as he appeared on the surface. At the very least, the information she had previously collected, that Wayne Kent was only Sequence 9, was definitely false.

But that's right, how could someone Vice Admiral Iceberg Edwina personally contacted be so ordinary?

If she couldn't see through him, then either his Sequence was special, or he possessed an extremely special mystical item, and his Sequence was definitely not low... Cattleya made a preliminary judgment in her heart.

"Ms. Cattleya, I think excessive prying into others is not a good habit, is it?" Seeing that Cattleya had been staring at him for several seconds without saying a word, and fully understanding her 'curiosity killed the cat' personality, Lin Ruo immediately smiled and warned.

He was really giving a kind reminder, after all, Lin Ruo had a pretty good understanding of his own situation. Although he was only a seemingly ordinary Sequence 7 on the surface, considering his increasingly powerful special abilities, and considering his confirmed identity as a big shot before amnesia, Lin Ruo was really a little worried that Cattleya might accidentally see him to death.

After all, in the world of 'Lord of Mysteries', rashly peeking at big shots or things of high status is really a dangerous thing. For example, Klein almost killed himself just by secretly using the 'Winner's' marionette to glance at himself. This is also why Lin Ruo never thought about using divination or other abilities to peek into his past.

On the one hand, the conditions were insufficient, and divination might not be useful. On the other hand, Lin Ruo was really worried that if he really peeked at something, he would kill himself.

Then he would really die with his eyes wide open!

And if Cattleya really had an accident because of looking at him, then he wouldn't be able to explain it afterwards—speaking of which, now that it's been confirmed that he had contact with Roselle, would he know Bernadette Gustav... ah, "Queen Mystic"?

Originally, Lin Ruo simply wanted to get in touch with Frank Lee and entrust him with researching plants suitable for growing in the Forsaken Land of the Gods. Looking at Cattleya in front of him, he suddenly had an idea.

Perhaps he could entrust Cattleya to ask Bernadette Gustav?

Anyway, they didn't really fall out...

Cattleya naturally didn't know that in this short one or two seconds, the young man in front of her was already preparing to give her a "surprise" later, so she just paused slightly after hearing Lin Ruo's words, and said, "Sorry, just a habit." Her tone could be described as polite.

"It's okay." Lin Ruo smiled, then glanced over the deck. There weren't too many people, but there weren't too few either, at least more than he saw on the Golden Dream.

"Mr. Wayne, why exactly do you want to see me?" Cattleya then asked, her eyes fixed on Lin Ruo.

"Well, actually it's because I have two things I want to entrust to you…" Lin Ruo replied, his smile so gentle that it was difficult to be wary.

He then said, "The first thing is related to your 'Future's' first mate, Frank Lee. I have something I want to entrust to him. Ms. Cattleya, can you tell me where Mr. Frank Lee is?"

Frank Lee… Cattleya froze for a moment, but didn't think too much about it for the time being, and nodded slightly, "Frank is in the cabin, follow me."

Cattleya then led Lin Ruo to the cabin. As soon as they entered, Lin Ruo saw someone who seemed to be waiting.

The other person was wearing a white shirt and overalls, about 30 years old, and his body was visibly strong, with thick body hair.

Lin Ruo, who had seen the other person's photo, instantly recognized him—Frank Lee, the "Poison Expert" with a bounty of 7,000 pounds, and also his main target this time on the Future.

Lin Ruo's smile immediately became brighter, and he proactively extended his hand, friendly saying, "Good evening, Mr. Frank Lee."

Frank Lee, who was already about to take the initiative to extend his hand, enthusiastically shook Lin Ruo's hand, and said, "Hello, Mr. Wayne Kent, it's a pleasure to meet you! It seems you know me because you've seen my wanted poster?"

"I'm also very happy to meet you. Actually, I've not only seen your wanted poster, Mr. Frank, I also know that you are a very friendly person, and your greatest hobby is researching soil, crops, and variety hybridization techniques, right?" Lin Ruo said with a smile, and then he saw Frank Lee's eyes light up, as if he had finally found a confidant in the vast sea of people.

"Yes, you're absolutely right, I didn't expect you to understand me! I'm clearly such a friendly person, and I rarely actively hurt others unless I'm facing those damn guys!" Frank Lee's tone was so excited as he spoke, "Clearly what I'm researching is the future of mankind, but others are unwilling to understand me, unwilling to believe me."

Well, I know, I not only know these things, I also know why they don't understand you… after all, if I were facing someone who was trying to crossbreed bulls, cows, and wheat together, so that calves could grow like wheat, I would also find it difficult to understand him!

But the Forsaken Land of the Gods needs someone like you!

Lin Ruo maintained the gentle and bright smile on his face while complaining in his heart, and finally didn't forget to agree against his conscience, "Frank, you must understand that geniuses are always difficult to understand in this world, and you happen to be the genius among geniuses… so you also have to be considerate of those ordinary people. It's normal that they can't keep up with your thinking and can't understand your ideas, after all, they don't have your talent."

The look in Frank Lee's eyes at Lin Ruo at that time was almost writing "I didn't expect there to be someone in the world who understands me so well, I'm definitely making this friend", if this were a game, Lin Ruo felt that he could probably see the prompt of Frank Lee's favorability continuously rising.

This made Lin Ruo feel slightly better about going against his conscience just now.

After all, he was doing this for the people of the Forsaken Land of the Gods!

While the two of them were happy, Cattleya, who was watching from the sidelines, felt like her whole person was not well at this moment.

She completely didn't expect that Wayne Kent would get along so well with Frank Lee.
