Siren Blade

Chapter 231
"Even if you fell under the bewitchment of the monster, why do I have to kill you, or stay with you forever, instead of having other choices? Maybe as long as I talk to you, you may slowly wake up Come here..." Lie Que said slowly.

For a moment, I felt that his gaze was not on me.

"It's different from what you said before." I don't understand why he suddenly changed his mind.

"I didn't know that the sea monster existed like that before." His eyes returned to me, "If it can be done, I also want to destroy it once and for all, but it cannot be truly eliminated, and if If its body is not resurrected, it will inevitably bring unimaginable disasters to our world. At the same time, we must also try to ensure that we can calm down the pollution that will occur after its resurrection, and then we happen to have you who are trustworthy and capable There are a large number of candidates with 'successful practical experience', and you also need to revive it in your own lifetime to prolong your remaining life... With so many favorable conditions, it is more difficult to find a reason not to adopt this plan."

"But this plan is based on optimistic estimates. What if there is an accident?" I said, "Once 'it' is revived, I will become stronger again, and it will become stronger by a large margin. Lian Bai Ju may not be my opponent... At that time, if I lose control, who can stop me again?"

I'm not talking nonsense, at least in terms of strength increase, I have a basis.

In the past, I relied on the power supported by "it" to become a main-level warlock who can manipulate the power of the true spirit from an ordinary person.Seemingly being able to freely summon the Siren Blade is also based on the existence of "it".But now I have gradually been able to understand that the reason why I was unable to master the power of the Siren Blade proficiently in the past was because the Siren Blade probably only played the role of a converter at that time. "The power of the true spirit called "pollution" has been transformed into the power of the true spirit that is convenient for me to manipulate.It is still not my strength in essence, so naturally it cannot be mastered by me.

But now I can already summon the Siren Blade with my own strength, and I can also burst out super-main-level power with the assistance of the Siren.If you add the power supported by "it", it will not be as simple as adding.The Siren Blade will have a multiplicative effect with the other powers I have, lifting me to a level that my current self can't match.

Coupled with the fact that it is very likely that the immortality will return to me at that time, I can't imagine who else has the ability to become my enemy.

I said this to Lie Que, but he was still not convinced by me.In his view, even if I become very powerful by then, even stronger than he was in his heyday, as long as the relevant confinement and sealing preparations are made in advance, we can deal with it.With the massive resources of the Security Bureau combined with enough efforts, and more importantly, combined with my own prior cooperation, that kind of thing is not difficult to do.

His idea must have a lot of evidence to support it, and it is likely to be more than one idea.

And when he saw that he couldn't convince me, he stopped entangled in this topic for the time being, but changed the subject, "I originally agreed to join hands with you to kill and bite blood, but unfortunately, it seems that I can't fulfill it for the time being." Agreed."

"The outside world is saying that you are crippled and will never regain your old strength." I watched him as I spoke.His physical body has recovered, but his spiritual body is still seriously injured.

"Let those rumors go, and I can't prove that I'm not disabled for the time being, because the current me is indeed no different from being disabled." He said lightly.

"Why don't you wait until you're fully recovered? It's dangerous for you to reappear now," I asked.

"I don't have such a strong resilience as you. I need to recuperate slowly for at least half a year before I can recover. During this period, I can't let my students take risks for me. I will take over the work of the blue bird. As for me You don’t have to worry about my own safety.” He said, “I’m still very good at self-protection. Biting blood 40 years ago was notorious in the hidden world, but as a rookie who just debuted, I messed with it early. I fell in love with her, but people like her who are good at plotting others have failed to kill me over and over again, why do you think?"

"Why?" I asked.

"Because I'm also good at running." He smiled rarely.

Many people, including me, often forget that when Lie Que was just a fledgling, he also had a very long period of embarrassing time when he was hunted down by blood and his feet didn't touch the ground.

Countless defeats, wounds, tears, roars... These things accompanied Lie Que's youth, making him grow step by step into a peak powerhouse.

And now even if he fully recovered from this serious injury, it would probably be difficult for him to fight like he used to.

According to my feeling, as long as he recovers, he will still be a super main-level warlock, but he may not be as strong as biting blood in terms of hard power.

He will become weaker and weaker in the future.

Just like the past Bite Blood has gradually degenerated from the super main force level to the main force level, he has also entered a period of decline.In another month, he will be 60 years old, which is the so-called sixtieth year.This kind of decline will happen sooner or later, but now it is ahead of time—no, he should have declined in the first place, but he was just trying to hold on before, and this serious injury finally made him unable to hold on.

He is old.

If it's just the aging of the body, maybe there is still a way to recover. Lie Que is not a mixed race with a special physique that is so special that it is extremely difficult to find a living sacrifice for his own life, but he seems to be even mentally old.For warlocks, this is the most deadly.

In the past, he would never say in front of me that even if I fell, he would not kill me right away, at least he would force himself to say in front of me with a majestic face, "If you dare to fall, I will kill you!" you".And after the fight with Bai Ju this time, he showed some kind of fatigue that could not be seen by the naked eye.

"Hmm... the topic seems to have strayed a little far." Lie Que looked at the glass box in my hand, as if he had just come to his senses, and then said, "You asked me why I cut off the Kraken's hand at first. Give it back to you."

"Yes. Also, I'm also curious why you allowed me to participate in the Battle of the Dawn Dreamland." I said, "Last time you told me to 'wait until everything is over' before explaining to me, now is the time ?"

"That's right. I'll explain it to you now." He said seriously, "Let's start with the first question. The reason why I want to return the severed hand to you is because there is no other suitable person to keep it."

I answered, "How to say?"

"The headquarter is drooling over this severed hand. Liming and Baiju, who are hiding in the dark, probably don't want to take it back. As you can see, I'm in a very bad state right now. Competent for the position of custodian. The difficult thing is that I don’t have other candidates with both strength and credibility in mind.” He said.

"So you tested me first?" I asked.

He nodded, "If you can independently get rid of the attraction of the sea monster's severed hand, then there is no doubt that you are the only candidate with both strength and credibility."

"Excuse me, can I understand it this way—" I said, "Do you think there may be a problem with Fa-rectification?"

As a super main-level warlock and camp leader, Fazheng must have extremely outstanding strength and widely recognized public credit.In my impression, Lie Que and Fazheng have a very good personal relationship, and they are both representatives of the legal camp and the real pillars.

However, Lie Que did not list him as a candidate, which only showed that Fazheng was not trustworthy in his eyes.

Then, I thought of more things, "Wait, the reason why you allowed me to participate in the dawn dream battle is because you don't want the severed hand to be taken by Fazheng? In your opinion, instead of letting Fazheng seize the severed hand, it is better Let me, who may lose control, seize it?"

"Well, you've guessed it before I told you. Yes, that's what I thought. I suspect that Fazheng has collusion with the corrupt elements of the Security Bureau... and even with Qianye." He said seriously Said, "I predicted in advance how the Battle of Dawn Dreamland would proceed. After breaking into the Dawn Dreamland, it is very likely that I will be spotted and intercepted by the white horse before I snatch the severed hand. If Fazheng came to the storage room unimpeded Where the hand was broken, I hope there is at least one person who can compete with him and win. Of course, the reality is that Baiju didn't go to me first, but to you who appeared there for "somehow" , but fortunately you snatched the severed hand before the Fa rectification."

"Regardless of what will happen if the Kraken's severed hand is allowed to remain there the night before, if the severed hand falls into the hands of corrupt elements in the headquarters, it will become very troublesome afterwards. Those people are very good at hiding things, and I don't have absolute confidence It can be searched out, and I don’t know what disasters will be brewed during this period. Instead of that, it’s better to let you snatch it.” He continued, “First, you have enough power to keep the severed hand for a period of time. Strength; secondly, you are not good at hiding, even if you lose control and defect to the security bureau later, I can easily track down the whereabouts of you and the severed hand."

"To be honest, I have a lot of questions..." I said, "First of all, Fazheng sat in the rear and commanded the law camp to wipe out the eve forces in the country. You didn’t lie about the killing intent when Liming started. I can understand if you say that you are colluding with corrupt elements from the Security Bureau, but you said that he had an affair with the eve?”

"This is indeed unreasonable, and it is also one of the reasons why my judgment on myself is only at the stage of doubt." Speaking of this, he changed the subject, "However, you know why I went to the headquarters to thoroughly investigate the corruption after the Mirage and Fog incident. molecule?"

"Didn't you take this opportunity to return to the capital to seek justice for Ming Yi?" I asked.

"For me, getting from Liucheng to the capital is like visiting the neighbor's house next door. Why bother to 'take advantage of this opportunity'. In the past, I would hand over this kind of justice to the legal camp at the headquarters. After all, I am in the political The identity of being expelled from the capital is not suitable for displaying in many places. Now I don't do that because the legal camp is not reliable anymore." He said.

"Did you find any clues?" I asked.

"This clue came from you in the first place," he said. "Remember the corpse of the investigation team you encountered in the mist of the mirage?"

"Remember, the investigation team to which the corpse belonged was apparently to investigate the robbery of the Mirage Security Bureau's equipment, but in fact it planned to cover up the director's sentence and hide the criminal evidence of his private transactions with fanatics." I recalled, " Because the investigation team was dispatched by the headquarters, the behind-the-scenes hands must be the senior management of the headquarters."

"That's right, and you also mentioned in your report that the corpse of the investigation team said this to you at the time - they believed that the high-tech equipment seized by the Liucheng Security Bureau in the mass sleeping incident was the mirage equipment The equipment in the robbery." He asked guidingly, "Why do they know that the Liucheng Security Bureau has those things?"

"It's because the fanatics failed in Liucheng." As I said that, I came to my senses, "No, only the fanatics failed in Liucheng according to the news from the outside world, but it didn't say that the fanatics' equipment was also seized..."

If it hadn't been for the fact that Jade Bird and I had raided the fanatic's stronghold in Liucheng in time by relying on the connection between Joan and his avatar, the fanatic would have had plenty of time to take away those precious equipment instead of leaving empty-handed.

Was it the fanatics themselves who told the mastermind behind the scenes?Although it is not impossible, it does not feel very suitable for the style of fanatics.His subsequent activities in Mirage did not require more sophisticated equipment support. It is hard to imagine that he, with his exclusive personality, would show his wounds to the mastermind behind the scenes.

"Wait a minute, after all, it should be normal for the people at the headquarters to know what valuables the Liucheng Security Bureau has seized in major cases." I raised my opinion.

"Your experience as a law enforcement warlock is still too little. Don't forget that the security bureaus in various places are very closed and have extremely poor information exchange capabilities. As our neighbor in Tianhe City, we couldn't even find out the only one on their side in the past. What do main-level warlocks look like? This phenomenon is no longer the level of individual control, it can only be said to be the curse of the warlock group." Lie Que said with self-deprecation, "The headquarters is the same for our Liucheng Security Bureau. They know that we have defeated Fanatics, but we don't know what materials we seized in that incident."

"But you always reported it yourself?" I asked.

"Yes. I reported it to Fazheng, and other high-level officials in the legal camp should also know the content." He said, "The organization of the headquarters is not very close on weekdays, and the various camps are not active in exchanging information. Even I reported this matter to Fazheng, and he went back and stored it in the public archives of the headquarters. It was also difficult for the investigation team sent by the headquarters to know about this matter, because they could not know in advance that there was just lying in the archives. key clues."

"But if there are members of the legal camp in the investigation team... No, if that's the case, just check the list of the investigation team a little bit, and you don't need to go around in such a big circle." I said, "What do you mean? Yes, the members of the investigation team are all from other camps, but there is a high probability that the mastermind behind the scenes is the top of the legal camp, that’s right.”

"Yes. At first I was just skeptical. If the truth is that the fanatics told the black hands behind the seizure of their devices by me, my speculation would be untenable... But with my investigation at the headquarters Pushing forward, some clues gradually point to Fazheng." He said with a sinking face.
