Chapter 784 Metatron's Commission
"Invite him in."
A young woman's voice came from the inside of the door, which sounded familiar.
Gao Fei tried his best to think back, then lowered his voice and asked Yao Guang: "Stationmaster, is Ms. Metatron next door?"
Yao Guang nodded and replied softly: "Ms. Metatron asked me to find you, and she also said she wanted to talk to you alone. I guess she probably has some personal matters and wants your help. If you can, please help. If it’s inconvenient, just refuse in person, don’t have any scruples, you understand what I mean?”
Gao Fei nodded understandingly and said gratefully: "Webmaster... thank you for your care."
"Silly boy, you are mine, of course I have to protect you."
Yao Guang smiled and opened the door for him.
Gao Fei walked into the next room and saw Metatron, dressed in white, sitting by the window, holding a teacup and smiling slightly at him. There was a faint silver light in his eyes, as if he could see through his inner thoughts. , making him feel inexplicably flustered.
"Dear Madam, what can I do for you?"
Gao Fei's attitude was very polite, but excessive politeness also emphasized the distance between them and showed that he had no intention of having a deep friendship with the other person.
Yao Guang didn't say it clearly, but Gao Fei could hear it.
The webmaster lady only has a relationship with Metatron as colleagues, and has no deep friendship. It seems that she does not want her top general to get too close to Metatron.
Between Yaoguang and Metatron, if Gao Fei had to make a choice, he would of course be more willing to follow the webmaster sister.
He didn't understand Metatron at all.
Moreover, judging from her experience of being imprisoned in Tianji Station Prison as an "SS-level felon", it is obvious that she is not as harmless as she seems on the surface, so it is best to stay away from her.
Goofy's concerns were soon confirmed by Metatron himself.
"Classmate Gao Fei, I heard that you will lead the special police team on a business trip to the Asmat area in the southern part of Irian Island. Could you please help me with something on the way?"
Metatron smiled and explained his purpose.
Gao Fei thought about it and said cautiously: "Are you referring to official matters or private matters?"
"It's mainly a private matter, but completing this matter will be of great help to some of our Tiangong's scientific research projects, so it can also be said to be a public matter."
Metatron's words were very vague, so Gao Fei simply asked straight to the point: "What can I do for you?"
"Help me find something that has been lost for many years. If nothing else, that thing is on Irian Island, and it may be related to the mission you have on this business trip."
"Madam, please forgive me for being stupid. I can't understand your intentions anymore." Gao Fei frowned, "You might as well speak more clearly."
"That's a long story."
Metatron sighed and suddenly waved his hand, releasing a mysterious energy that enveloped the entire room.
Gao Fei subconsciously checked the astrolabe and was shocked to find that the astrolabe had been cut off from the Internet, and the monitoring, recording, and communication functions were temporarily out of order.
"Don't worry, I just created a psychic barrier to block eavesdropping or spying attempts from the outside world. In this environment, we can chat openly and honestly."
Metatron still had a charming smile on his face, but Gao Fei couldn't help but feel chills running down his spine and sweat breaking out.
Under his anxious gaze, Metatron's head underwent a change: the white skin turned purple, the beautiful face became like a weird cephalopod creature, and even the six braids became twisted and twisted around the mouth. Swinging tentacles.
This horrifying face is in huge contrast with her still tall and sexy figure, creating a strong sense of dissonance.
Gao Fei couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
There is no need for Metatron to play a prank and deliberately turn into this weird appearance with a human body and an octopus head to scare herself, then the truth can only be that she has always looked like this.
That beautiful face from before was her disguise.
Licking his dry lips, Gao Fei mustered up the courage to break the silence.
"Ms. Metatron, please forgive me for my offense. If I'm not mistaken, your body is... a mind flayer?"
The Mind Flayer is one of the most famous and powerful aberrations in the world. It is no exaggeration to describe this creature as cold, evil, perverted and crazy.
Goofy has never dealt with the Mind Flayer, either in reality or in the game.
But he could tell that the image of Metatron at this moment was almost exactly the same as the illustration of the Mind Flayer in the "Monster Manual".
Metatron nodded first, then shook his head slightly.
She turned into this scary look, but her voice was still soft and melodious, and she explained to Gao Fei in a friendly manner, like a female teacher instructing her students.
"It's true that I am a mind flayer, but you should notice that there are subtle differences between me and ordinary mind flayers."
"Most mind flayers only have four tentacles, but I have six tentacles, Goofy, do you know what this means?"
After Metatron returned to his original appearance, his originally beautiful eyes turned into milky white spheres, with a strange silver color still shining in the depths of his pupils.
"I think... more tentacles represent your noble bloodline and your more outstanding talents than other mind flayers."
Goofy answered bravely.
He knew he was talking nonsense, but there was a saying that was good, don't hit the smiling person.
There is a risk of flattering the horse's leg, but at least it is safer than saying "more tentacles look scarier".
Facts have proved that his bet was right.
Mind flayers are usually hermaphroditic monsters, but Metatron seems to be an exception. This monster is even more feminine than most real women, and is more willing to enjoy men's flattery.
"You little guy, you are so sweet at such a young age!" Metatron smiled, "You guessed it right, a mind flayer like me is a genius among the tribe, called 'soul eater' or 'higher mind flayer'."
"In my former hometown of Edythe, my compatriots and slaves respectfully called me 'the mind sucking princess of Edythe'."
Metatron's ferocious face showed a look of nostalgia.
After being in a trance for a long time, she turned her gaze to Gao Fei again, and calmly comforted him not to be afraid.
"This is the Heavenly Palace. I won't mess around during the bail period and hurt a promising young man whom I admire very much."
"You think too highly of me, Ms. Metatron. I heard that the Mind Flayer loves to suck human brains. Is this true?"
The strong curiosity made Gao Fei unable to control his mouth and tried to dance on the minefield.
Metatron smiled and nodded in agreement.
"It can be seen that you are a child with a strong curiosity. This reminds me of the time when I was with Qiao An..."
She showed a trace of nostalgia in her eyes, and then she regained her composure.
