As he spoke, Duanmu Huai stretched out his hand.
"What do you think?"
".........…"
Professor Palmer hesitated for a while at the sight of the extended hand from Duanmu Huai, before stretching out his own to shake it.
"I think so too."
"Good, then it seems we will be able to cooperate pleasantly."
The reason Duanmu Huai took an interest in Professor Palmer was because the latter was simply an average scholar. Despite the mediocrity, it represented a sense of self-awareness. Duanmu Huai loathed geniuses or those who thought themselves to be so, as they tend to be utterly arrogant in their field of expertise, believing they could overcome all adversities, only to fall into the pits of the Evil God.
More often than not, they weren't even aware they had fallen into the trap, imagining they were in control of the situation when in reality, everything was under the control of the Evil God.
Such ignorant fools were the most detestable.
