Du Gang looked at Meng Yuan, blinked in confusion, and then silently took a drag on his cigarette.
In the instance of the virtual world of Trial Illusion, this was fine, but if they were anywhere else, like at the police station, he'd have first suggested Meng Yuan take a urine test.
That had been a lot of information to process, and he needed a moment to digest it.
Even before, Du Gang had already entertained many guesses, like some emerging super-genius hacker or a mysterious technology company from abroad.
He'd even considered aliens.
But he never thought of the possibility Meng Yuan had just mentioned.
Was everything about the Restorers true? Could there really be demons in this world that could travel through history and reality, alter history, and harm humanity?
Wasn't that a bit... too absurd?
It seemed even harder to swallow than some inexplicable dark technology.
Meng Yuan, of course, had expected his reaction.
