She couldn't argue.
Because what Su Hui said is true.
She truly didn't care about her own life or death, and even longed for an end.
Su Hui shrugged indifferently as he looked at her wavering expression.
"The conditions are there."
"Whether you agree or not is up to you."
Su Hui's words caused the color to gradually fade from Mio's pretty face, which had been flushed with embarrassment and anger, and it was once again covered by frost.
This time, however, beneath the frost was not a cold indifference that kept people at a distance, but a kind of emptiness that was almost deathly still.
Self-destructive tendencies.
They were torn apart by those hideous monsters.
It turned into a pile of mangled flesh and blood.
Every word precisely struck at her deepest fears and...desires.
The atmosphere in the living room became incredibly ambiguous and strange because of Su Hui's almost humiliating suggestion.
Everyone stared at Mio, waiting for her answer.
Harley's smile held a mischievous glint of anticipation.
Lady Ariana looked at him with disdain, and her daughters showed jealousy. They were jealous of Mio's good fortune in being favored by Su Hui.
Secretly, it hoped the other party would refuse and not try to steal its master's affection.
Even the dimensional creature disguised as an innocent young girl looked at her curiously with its clear, innocent eyes, as if it were looking at an interesting toy.
Humiliation, embarrassment, anger... all sorts of emotions surged within her, but ultimately all returned to a void of calm.
He's right.
If you're not even afraid of death, why would you care about these things?
Just when everyone thought she would draw her sword or leave in anger.
Mio suddenly raised her blood-red eyes and stared directly into Su Hui's unfathomable eyes once more.
Her taut jawline relaxed slightly, and her cold lips parted slightly.
"it is good."
One word, clear and resolute.
The air in the living room seemed to freeze for a moment.
Harley looked surprised.
Lady Ariana's face clearly showed disappointment, while her three daughters glared angrily at Mio, resenting her for not refusing.
Merlin and Bayonetta looked at Mio in surprise, their faces filled with disbelief and astonishment.
She... agreed?
Did they just agree to such an almost humiliating condition so easily?
Mio ignored everyone's surprise; her eyes were only on Su Hui.
"Now, you can tell me."
Her voice remained cool and clear, but now carried an undeniable stubbornness.
Su Hui was also somewhat surprised.
He gave Mio a deep look, as if trying to discern some other emotion from her icy face.
But he failed.
On that face, there was only a stubborn calm.
Su Hui's lips slowly curved into a meaningful smile as he looked down at Lilith beside him.
The large hand inside her clothes squeezed her full breasts, eliciting a soft, delicate moan from her. He chuckled and said:
"The process is actually very simple."
"I used my ability to locate Lilith in advance and launched a surprise attack here. Lilith has almost no close combat ability, and her strongest mental attack methods are ineffective against me, allowing me to easily subdue her."
His explanation was understated and vague, deliberately omitting the most crucial core element: the seed of loyalty.
This answer clearly failed to satisfy Mio.
"It's that simple?"
Mio's brows furrowed instantly, and a hint of anger ignited in her blood-red pupils. "You're just trying to fool me!"
Mio pointed at Lilith, who was nestled obediently in Su Hui's arms, and said, "Such methods cannot explain why she changed her attitude from hostility to submission to you."
"Is it difficult to understand?"
"She's simply impressed by my strength, isn't she?"
Su Hui glanced at Mio, opened his mouth to eat the grapes Lilith offered him, sucked on her outstretched finger, and looked at Lilith to ask.
"Mmm~ Master is too strong, I am willing to be your servant."
Lilith looked at the slender white fingers that Su Hui was sucking on, her eyes filled with seductive charm, and she bit her red lips in a shy response.
Su Hui and Lilith's attitude completely ignited Mio's anger.
Her grip on the sword hilt tightened again, and she was about to lash out.
"Alright, Mio."
Bayonetta's voice rang out at the right moment. She gracefully walked to Mio's side and gently pressed her shoulder.
"Su Hui has explained, but now the important matter is more pressing."
"We didn't come to Washington to discuss these things."
Merlin also came over and said seriously, "Mio, don't be angry. I will talk to Su Hui about this later."
Bayonetta and Merlin's words suppressed Mio's anger.
Mio wasn't stupid; she could sense that they were trying to help Su Hui out of a predicament.
She glared at Su Hui resentfully, but ultimately released her grip on the sword and chose to remain silent.
Seeing that the atmosphere was back under control, Su Hui finally shifted his gaze from Mio and swept it over everyone present.
"Just like Merlin said, we didn't come to Washington just to solve Lilith's problems."
His voice returned to its calm and composed tone, carrying an aura of complete control.
“Before I arrived, Lilith had already used mind control to take control of all the high-ranking officials in this safe zone, as well as most of the superhuman officers.”
Upon hearing this, even Bayonetta and Merlin, who had anticipated it, showed a hint of seriousness in their eyes.
"The troops that Mio and Bayonetta saw before, those that were dispatched out of the safe zone, were actually sent by her to the singularity where she was born, to serve as nourishment for the monsters there, in order to accelerate the process of dimensional collision."
Su Hui's words revealed a cruel truth.
Mio's face instantly turned extremely ugly.
She recalled the soldiers' numb and empty eyes; they hadn't gone on a mission, but were going to their deaths.
"But don't worry about it now."
Su Hui's fingers gently traced Lilith's pure and lovely face, eliciting a soft, comfortable moan from her.
"I have already sent her a message to send those soldiers who are going to their deaths back."
"Now, that's our real goal."
Su Hui's voice wasn't loud, but it sent a chill down the spines of everyone present.
"I want to completely take control of the White House, the President of the United States, the top brass of all the remaining American military forces, and the leaders of all the major surviving factions."
"I want to bring all the survivors in America under my control in the shortest possible time."
Su Hui's voice wasn't loud, but the ambition revealed in his words sent chills down the spines of everyone present.
This is no longer simply about conquering a safe zone, but about... taking control of a country.
"The date of the dimensional collision is approaching, and everything needs to be accelerated. Previously, we considered having Merlin use magic to control these high-level beings, but now, with Lilith, this matter will become much simpler."
Su Hui's gaze fell on the girl in his arms again.
"But before that, we need to help her complete her final transformation, allowing her to break through the limitations of this world and become the first true legend under my command."
Upon hearing this, a flicker of excitement and fervor flashed in Lilith's eyes. She tilted her head back and nuzzled Su Hui's chest even more intimately with her cheek.
"Master, what do you need Lilith to do?"
Su Hui looked down at her and asked.
"How long will your transformation take, and what conditions are required?"
Lilith's sweet voice rang out, carrying a hint of bewitching magic.
"Master, my transformation requires absorbing sufficiently powerful spiritual energy and life essence. The fastest way is to mutate and control a sufficient number of life forms."
"According to my original plan, I would need to mutate and control at least 100,000 humans to barely complete the transformation. I had already controlled more than 30,000 people, but I was very cautious because I was worried about being discovered by the Federation's powerful figures."
"But now that Master is here, Lilith can do whatever she wants!"
She paused and added.
"Moreover, the servants I control will have their mental energy connected to mine, and like a virus, they can radiate my mental influence to others around them, although this process will take some time."
Upon hearing this, a glint flashed in Su Hui's eyes.
This ability was practically tailor-made for his plan.
"very good."
Su Hui nodded in satisfaction and looked at Merlin.
“You have had contact with the Federal President before, so you will be in charge of making those contacts.”
Then, his gaze turned to Bayonetta and Mio.
"You two have also asked them for help before, so it shouldn't be difficult to get close to them again."
Merlin and Bayonetta nodded in agreement.
Just then, Lilith spoke again, her voice tinged with obsequiousness. "You Lin Yong, you Lin Kong, you Lin Zaizai, are you there yet...?"
"Master~"
"Actually... I've also secretly planted some 'seeds' in several other large safe zones."
This unexpected news made Su Hui's eyes light up.
"Oh?"
Lilith sensed her master's pleasure and immediately said, as if to take credit, "Although it's not like here, where I can completely control the entire safe zone, I can still influence a few key figures and introduce them to you, Master."
This is a real surprise.
"In that case, to achieve our goal as quickly as possible, let's set off now and head straight for the White House."
Su Hui pondered for a moment and then made a decision.
His decision once again exceeded everyone's expectations.
"Going right now?"
Merlin was somewhat surprised, "Not waiting for Lilith to complete her transformation?"
"No need to wait."
Su Hui stood up, and the aura of a legendary powerhouse unconsciously emanated from him, making the air in the entire living room heavy.
"The longer the night, the more dreams there are."
"Moreover, helping her transform does not conflict with our actions."
Su Hui looked at Lilith.
"I will create the best 'hunting ground' for you."
