The Lone Wolf of Tomorrow's Ark

Looking at the silent crowd, Severin sighed, and took the initiative to go out with the staff on duty. Before closing the door, he said to everyone in the conference room:

"I hope you can carefully consider the countermeasures now. There is more than one sword hanging over Wollenmud's head..."

From the practices of those high-level leaders some time ago, Severin also understood the current situation of Warren Mudd. Due to the 'Great Rift Valley', Warren Mudd deviated from the original route. However, the upper management of Letania did not want to spend extra resources and manpower to help Warren Mude.

Because even if Warrenmurd is really destroyed, at worst they will support the second 'Warrenmurd' to come out. Anyway, there are many similar mobile city-states here in Letania.

And this also means that even if the operator from Rhodes Island is really mad here, Letania will only find troubles for Rhodes Island after all, and will not send anyone to rescue the current Warren Mudd at all. .

Therefore, Severin must find a suitable reason that can be accepted by Rhodes Island, and at the same time attract the attention of the high-level people, and realize the reason why they can't come.

While he was thinking this, the staff on duty had already brought him in front of Phoenix and Skadi.

At this time, Phoenix's silver hair has changed back, but the sense of oppression brought by the indifferent expression on his face and the murderous look in his eyes is still full. side pressure.

Although Anto did not die, it was based on the fact that Phoenix arrived successfully. If Phoenix did not come to this mission by chance, Anto would become a humanoid coke just like the corpse created by Phoenix. , Thinking of this, Phoenix felt bursts of anger in his heart.

Moreover, it is now understood by everyone that An Tuo died, so everyone in Rhodes Island wants to investigate the truth, but they are very angry now, it is best not to mess with them.

Therefore, in order to let the locals solidify this idea a little bit, the purpose of Phoenix's coming here is very clear. In addition to investigating the cause of the incident, it is to put pressure on Warrenmurd and let them understand what it means that not everyone is like Anto Peaceful.

"Sir Severin."

He opened his mouth to call out Severin's name, although he had the honorific word 'sir', but the tone didn't mean it at all, only the coldness that seemed to imply anger and resentment, let people hear this sentence Severin even shuddered involuntarily.

"Hello, Lone Wolf Operator, I'm sorry about Dr. An Tuo."

"That kind of thing is fine. Now, I want the information you found from the crime scene."

"Okay, come with me."

Hearing that Phoenix didn't pursue Warrenmud's ineffective supervision, Severin breathed a sigh of relief, and then brought Phoenix and the two to the door of the evidence room. After opening the door, the first thing everyone saw was A shattered round crystal ball placed on a tray.

Severin pointed to the crystal ball, frowned and said:

"After we investigated the scene, we found the source according to the traces of the explosion. This is the core of the self-disciplined spell casting of the magic defense unit 'Gramophone'. If it is the energy contained in it, if it is overloaded and exploded through manipulation, it can indeed cause such a level of damage. Explosions and fires, but..."

"only?"

Seeing Phoenix, whose expression had not changed and still had a cold face, Severin exhaled and said bravely:

"We don't know at the moment, and we can't find it for the time being, who actually used it to artificially cause the explosion and fire..."

"……Ah……"

After listening to this passage, Phoenix's expression became a little contemptuous. He smiled at first, then restrained himself sharply, looked up and stared at Severin, and said almost word for word:

"Excuse me, do you think I'm easy to deceive, Severin? Really, I don't know Laitania? The spell that manipulates the core of the 'gramophone' can only be cast by highly educated Laitanian natives. Excuse me Is it so difficult to find a native of Warrenmud who has received a high-level education when the military police have been transferred by the nobles?"

"This…………"

The concealed matter was completely exposed, and Severin's expression became a little ugly, but he was wronged and couldn't explain anything, so he could only keep silent, ready to accept the questioning and anger from Phoenix.

However, just when Skadi felt that Phoenix was going to get angry, Phoenix didn't say much, just glanced at Severin and said:

"The scope of the murderer is already here. I hope that you will not disappoint me, Chief Severin. By the way, Rhodes Island is an organization responsible for dealing with the problem of infected people. Tell us about the Warrenmud incident."

"Ah... ok."

Although he didn't know why Phoenix let him go so easily, Severin knew that this was an opportunity Rhodes Island gave them, a chance to temporarily make up for Anto's death.

Having figured this out, Severin revealed some recent things about Warren Mudd with the idea of ​​making Warren Mudd easier. At this time, he couldn't help but hide something. thought out.

——Severin talks about the dividing line of known information——

"Well, the culprit who instigated the infected in the city, the unknown armed infected outside the city, and the descendants of the winter spirits you suspect..."

After listening to Severin and all the information, Phoenix's expression remained unchanged, but he actually laughed inwardly, because his goal had been achieved.

Phoenix learned all the truth from the system in the hotel early on. He knew even more comprehensively than Severin. The reason why he asked for information from him was to find a reasonable basis for his information. source.

After recounting it briefly, Phoenix gave Severin a meaningful look, and said only when everyone else was getting hairy:

"Then let's take a step first. Regarding the list of suspects, I will trouble you, Chief Severin, to investigate clearly. Let's investigate the suspicious militant. See you later."

After bidding farewell to Severin, and slowly leaving the meeting room under the eyes of the rest of his life, Skadi gently leaned over, and asked Mr.

"Suspicious militants, the ones from Chernobog before?"

"Yes, but no, they left long before Chernoborg. In fact, they have a little relationship with us."

"origin?"

"They should be the team that Mudrock led before, if I guessed correctly."

"Oh, hers."

Hearing what Phoenix said, Skadi nodded, then looked at Phoenix's empty left hand, reached out to hold it, interlocked his fingers, and then showed a very light smile.

Feeling that Skadi took the initiative to hold his hand, Phoenix also smiled, then looked at Skadi, and asked:

"Speaking of which, how have you been getting along with the ghost shark recently?"

"Well... how should I put it, she has become too much, the most is that she is madly believing in you."

"Ah..."

Hearing Skadi's suddenly resentful words, Phoenix was suddenly a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say.

Ghost Shark, a friend of Skadi, should have received treatment in Rhodes Island before the Chernoborg incident. Her brain was oppressed by the source stone, which caused her amnesia, and her mental state often There was a problem, so Kelsey hadn't put her in the combat department before.

After the reunion with Skadi, Ghost Shark's brain seemed to react a bit. Although she recognized Skadi, there was no touching reunion of friendship, just a simple greeting, and then she made a Something that made Skadi's spirit fluctuate very much.

The ghost shark directly kissed Phoenix who was standing next to Skadi at that time, or the kind of drawing, and then uttered the words that have been included in the TOP10 Rhodes Island Love Words Ranking:

"I swear to you, I will follow you to the day when the ocean is completely dry, and my body and mind will be redeemed under your rain and dew. Please allow and accept it, the faith I offer to you."

Chapter 510 The Seventh Truth

Then... Skadi almost didn't fight the ghost shark directly because of this incident. Later, after research, it was because of Phoenix's identity as the heart of the ocean and the identity of the ancient god believer that led to the appearance of the mentally unstable ghost shark this reaction.

However, Ghost Shark doesn't mind at all, he just said "I offer my faith to you". Seriously, if he didn't know that the gods on Terra have basically disappeared, he would feel that he would pray devoutly here every day Got the god position.

"Um..."

Seeing that Phoenix seemed to be thinking about the ghost shark, Skadi couldn't help being jealous, and directly hugged Phoenix's arm, with his chin resting on Phoenix's shoulder, and his right cheek rubbed against Phoenix's cheek lightly, making both of them A little itchy.

But when the two were flirting, there was a sudden commotion not far away, and many people could be heard arguing:

"That's enough! What do you guys want to do?!"

"What else can we do! Find out the culprit! Let Dr. An Tuo rest in peace!"

"Obviously Chief Severin said that the fire was caused by an accident, why don't you believe it!"

"There is no flammable thing in the infected camp except alcohol! An accidental fire?! Who are you kidding!"

"What... what are you doing? Put down your weapons!"

"They have knives in their hands! Back off! Back off, everyone!"

Hearing the sound not far away, Phoenix and Skadi glanced at each other, then separated temporarily, and ran towards the place where the riot took place. After arriving at the place, Phoenix saw a group of infected people holding large or small Knife, confronting some Warrenmurd civilians.

However, seeing the hideous appearance of those infected people, Phoenix has enough reasons to suspect that they will directly fight these civilians in the next second.

"What happened here?"

"You are……"

Hearing Phoenix's words, the civilians who were carefully surrounding the group of infected people glanced at Phoenix with some doubts. Obviously, they didn't know Phoenix's operators who had just come from Rhodes Island recently, but neither did Phoenix. Mind, turned to look at the lead infected person.

After seeing Phoenix, those infected first stopped, and then one of them came out and said:

"You are friends of Dr. An Tuo, we don't want to have conflicts with you, and don't you think the whole thing is too strange? Such a big explosion, obviously there is no thing that can cause an explosion in the infected camp , To actually say it was an accident, isn’t this just concealing the truth! We must give us an explanation today!”

"I said we didn't know! We also feel very sorry for the death of Dr. An Tuo, but we really don't know. You are now protesting in the town every day, which has affected the lives of many ordinary people! You still want to how?"

........................

Phoenix didn't speak, and the civilians quarreled with the infected again, each talking about their own reasons, one side wanted to find out the real cause of Anto's death and seek justice for him, and the other side wanted to defend themselves so that the other side could calm down.

In the end, there was still no reason, and those infected who were instigated into rage couldn't bear it anymore, and raised their weapons one after another, shouting:

"Someone must be responsible for this today! Everyone!"

"Oops... Oops, everyone run away!"

Because there were no weapons in their hands, when they saw many infected people attacking actively, those civilians immediately started to run around, and those infected people naturally wanted to catch up, but at this moment, there was only a slight chill. However, a large number of sharp ice crystals began to grow rapidly, turning into roadblocks and directly blocking the rioting infected people.

"enough."

Looking at the group of infected people who had become completely irrational, Phoenix's expression turned cold again. It was unknown whether it was due to the cold air or Phoenix's coercion, those infected people slowly stopped and looked at the people blocking them Phoenix.

"Dr. Anto's death, Rhodes Island itself will investigate. The riots you are causing will only delay the progress of our investigation. Now, take your weapons, go home and wait obediently. We will find the murderer and make him pay for it." The price, what you have to do is to find your own position, don't give yourself and this town trouble, understand?"

"........."

After Phoenix finished speaking, although those infected people were unwilling and held a stalemate for a while, they finally dispersed one after another, avoiding a riot. Although it was not known that it was because of Dr. It was still because of Phoenix's forceful oppression, but the result was good.

"Well, thank you very much, I thought something big would happen today."

Seeing that the infected people had dispersed, the civilians who had just fled in a hurry calmed down and thanked Phoenix, while Phoenix shook his head and left the street with Skadi without saying a word.

Walking on the street, Skadi looked at Phoenix with an indifferent expression, and asked worriedly:

"Fee, are you all right?"

"It's okay, I'm fine, let's go, let's go directly to the Twelve Tone Block to have a look, if we're lucky, we should be able to directly meet the culprit who incited the infected people."

The more I saw the situation of Wolumde, the angrier I became.

This is Phoenix's current state of mind. From the system, he has already learned the truth of everything. In the final analysis, the chaos in Wollenmud is just a series of coincidences, plus a *Colombia swear* Just a stupid plan.

Because of the 'Great Rift Valley' natural disaster, Warren Mudd has long deviated from the route, and Biederman, the natural disaster messenger in the town, has naturally been cast aside and unfairly treated by the townspeople.

In order to allow Wollenmund to survive this disaster, Severin wanted to attract the attention of high-level officials. In the end, he chose to transfer all the hatred, so that the so-called "winters" who were still wandering in the mountains 'To take the blame, or pass on the information about the 'integration movement' to the top.

In this way, in order to prevent these two dangerous factors from developing from Warrenmurd, the high-level side will inevitably send assistance troops, so that Warrenmurd will be saved.

But he didn't know that the pure-blooded young winter spirits actually no longer existed. The last pure-blooded winter spirit was an old infected person who lived in Twelve Tone Street and was completely ignored by others...

Moreover, Severin didn't expect that besides him, there was another person who was also thinking about resolving the Wollenmud incident, and that was his son, Thorwald.

Unlike Severin, Thor's plan is more chaotic and bloody. His plan is to issue a crisis contract, kill the most prestigious person among the infected, and actively provoke conflicts between the infected and ordinary people. Utilize the turmoil in Wollenmud to attract high-level attention.

And this is where Phoenix feels angry, not only because of Thor's disregard for life, but also because this guy's original goal was not Anto, but the most prestigious person among the infected, and that person It just happened to be Anto.
