The person who arrived was actually Dr. Jubino.
However, Ye Bai always felt that something was off about the Dr. Jubino standing before him.

[Evaluation: After being converted by Dr. Jubino, it has always followed him, but if Dr. Jubino dies in the Lake Bottom Research Institute, the demon will regain its freedom.]
No, the Dr. Jubino in front of me is a disguise by the Soul-Devouring Demon.
Ye Bai's Eye of Truth can see through all illusions, and his conclusion was undoubtedly correct.
In Ye Bai's eyes, the demon wore a tattered black cloak, its appearance hidden beneath the cape.
Its fingers were long and sharp, resembling sharp claws.
It emitted a considerable amount of cold qi, causing an uneasy feeling.
It spoke while gasping for breath.
This Soul-Devouring Demon had revealed a trove of intelligence.
Dr. Jubino had unexpectedly entered the Lake Bottom Research Institute too.
Though Ye Bai was shocked internally, he did not show it on the surface for fear that the demon might see through him.
"Dr. Jubino, what brings you here to see me?"
"Do you need detailed data on the ice and fire rocks?"
Ye Bai opened the door, inviting Dr. Jubino inside.
"No, Ye Bai, I'm just doing a routine check to see if you are following the rules and not moving around unnecessarily."
"Recently, many Water Beasts have infiltrated New Covenant University, so I came to give you a heads-up."
"If you encounter something you can't handle, report it to the personnel on duty immediately."
"Don't think of solving it by yourself."
"Heroism isn't encouraged here."
After saying this, the Soul-Devouring Demon left straight away.
As for the task that Dr. Jubino had previously arranged, which involved getting close to Ye Bai and persuading him to join the Beautiful Country,
the Soul-Devouring Demon felt that it was Dr. Jubino's task, and it was already exhausted from working, yet still had to toil for Dr. Jubino.
Wasn't the life of the Soul-Devouring Demon also a life?
Humans really bullied the Soul-Devouring Demon too much.
Thinking of it brought bitter tears. Every day in the office felt like eternity, processing endless files and constant reports, which made the demon extremely irritable.
Ye Bai suddenly thought that if Dr. Jubino had truly entered the Lake Bottom Research Institute, how did he evade those indescribable entities?
Doesn't this suggest that Dr. Jubino must have pertinent information about the research institute?
Perhaps Dr. Jubino was one of the high-level staff responsible for the research institute back then.
Ye Bai conceived a plan; he intended to first search Dr. Jubino's room.
As for the room's location, it was hardly a challenge for Ye Bai.
Ye Bai tapped a few keys on the computer and quickly hacked into the sanctuary's firewall.
By comparing and screening large amounts of data, Ye Bai easily obtained the room where Dr. Jubino stayed.
However, Ye Bai was now troubled by how to infiltrate.
The Soul-Devouring Demon was extremely sensitive to the aura of souls. Entering Dr. Jubino's room could easily alert the demon.
He wasn't aware of the demon's patrol route, and he needed to act swiftly; otherwise, Dr. Jubino could return, and getting caught would be unfavorable for him.
Additionally, the demon's level was high, and discovery would cause a huge commotion, impacting Ye Bai's subsequent plans.
At this moment, the Lady Bat spatially transferred over, sitting cross-legged and munching on the exquisite cake and rare fruits on Ye Bai's table.
"Ah, it's so comfortable here."
"I finally found you."
"Are you hiding from Principal Mage?"
"Recently, Principal Mage seems crazy to find you."
"Twenty people in a common dorm have driven Principal Mage insane."
The Lady Bat chattered on.
"Ye Bai, we're trapped in the shelter now."
"I can use a Secret Technique to contact the Flame Country."
"What do you think we should do next?"
"I have a secret mission to collect research data from New Covenant University."
"Dr. Jubino is an authority among authorities. If we could get his data, that would be huge for us."
"But through what means can we acquire it?"
Upon hearing the Lady Bat's words, Ye Bai's eyes brightened.
Indeed, why bother with the office in the shelter? Why not go straight to Dr. Jubino's original office?
