Chapter 238: Gathering the Stars, Lion Henry
As soon as he entered the dilapidated hotel room, Su Ziyu's attention was completely focused on the corpse on the ground that was decomposing and dissipating at a very unusual speed. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although he stayed in the bar, he accidentally encountered Theola, the god of flesh. But because of Yun Chunyang's return, there was not much delay. After the two came to meet Ji Xuanzong again, they only monitored for a while, and then they found the middle-aged man who had sneaked into the room.
Lonard is an ordinary person, limited to the narrowness of his vision, he doesn't know anything about the power of middle-aged men, only instinctive fear and fear, but Su Ziyu is naturally different, and he found out that the other party is not an ordinary person at the first time. However, Ji Xuanzong's actions were more straightforward, only slightly confirming the identity of this person, and from the conversation with a few words, he recognized the forces that belonged to the forces standing behind and driving Ronard, and immediately launched it with a thunderous momentum!
And then there was the scene that Lonard saw.
He didn't use any magical spells, just used a powerful mind and mind to completely control the middle-aged man, leaving him without any room for resistance. Such a fiery and masculine powerful mind did not cause any additional damage when it operated, which shows how easy Ji Xuanzong is. Ordinary people like Lonard saw the unbelievable and unclear, while Su Ziyu, who understood the mystery, felt that Ji Xuanzong's vast mind was as vast as the sea and as deep as the abyss, bottomless and incalculable.
However, Ji Xuanzong did not fully achieve his goal, after he restrained this middle-aged man, he was clearly controlling his mind to forcibly search for souls and dig up memories, and wanted to get all the information that the other party knew, but it seemed to have failed? ”
As early as many years ago, when Su Ziyu had not yet achieved the soul of life, he had already driven the means of seizing souls and mining memories of the Flying Yaksha. With Ji Xuanzong's profound heritage and strength, coupled with the disproportionate mental strength of the two sides, there is no chance of missing at all. But from Ji Xuanzong's somewhat strange reactions, as well as the fluctuations in Su Ziyu's thoughts, the middle-aged man's vitality and soul almost collapsed at the touch of a button, and completely turned into nothing, let alone obtain memories and details.
"Huh...... How could this corpse's vitality fade so quickly, and it was directly gone?" Yun Chunyang, who was standing on the side, frowned slightly, looking at the corpse that looked a little weird and terrifying because of its dryness and wilting, and suddenly had a sense of déjà vu.
Before entering the room, they clearly sensed that this man's strength was at least the level of an innate powerhouse, although he was not taken seriously, but he should not be so vulnerable as an ordinary person.
Ji Xuanzong obviously didn't expect that he would personally take action to deal with such a small role, but he didn't succeed in seizing the soul.
With his supernatural powers, after controlling the other party, he should be completely in control of life and death. If you want him to live, you will live, and if you want him to die, you will die. Therefore, even if the other party's resistance only accelerated the destruction of his own form and soul, it also meant that it was a little unexpected, so he revealed his true identity for the first time and entered the room to investigate.
"It's a little interesting, it's not the walking dead, with its own vitality and intelligence, but the soul is incomplete, it's about the means of corpse puppets and the like. However, this little accident is not worth making a fuss about, Ji Xuanzong just swept it lightly, and he understood the cause and effect. This middle-aged man was already ruined, and it seemed that the person behind him was a means to guard against leaking the news.
"This dead man is very similar to the armor guards in the flesh and blood heavenly palace under the Jinghe River, could it be that the one who spread the news behind this is actually the Qin Emperor Yingzheng who has been lurking for many years?"
After a moment of induction, Su Ziyu suddenly understood, and could distinguish the feeling of déjà vu. Although several years had passed, the majestic and majestic Heavenly Palace, with countless pavilions and pavilions, and thousands of black-armored guards, had already left a deep impression.
"Quite possibly. It's just that how did he know the news of the so-called sacred mountain, and he could still connect it with the Statue of Liberty, so why did he spread it around, lest the world be chaotic? What kind of plan was behind these moves? Master, I think we should immediately send out the order and let all the people everywhere do their best to investigate, so as to find out the other party's purpose. Yun Chunyang nodded, and then said in a deep voice.
When Emperor Qin was born, he was also under the Jinghe River, and he personally fought with Emperor Qin, so he could naturally distinguish the similarity between the two.
The first emperor of the ages, Emperor Yingzheng of Qin, this dangerous person who has been dormant for thousands of years was born, and he has always been in the most important position on the search list of the Special Defense Bureau, but he has never found much news. Now it suddenly appeared again, and it was also linked to the news of the Divine Mountain, which inevitably made Yun Chunyang feel suspicious.
"No need!"
Ji Xuanzong waved his hand and stopped Yun Chunyang's next words.
"Hiding the head and showing the tail, the flies camp and the dogs, the so-called emperor through the ages, nothing more than that. These people who spread the news are just puppet pawns, and it is not worth wasting effort to search. Whether it's what you want to get, or who you want to bring out. Since they tried their best to draw everyone's attention to the so-called sacred mountain fairy realm, immortality, and the Statue of Liberty, we went to Liberty Island. This world has been quiet for many years, and some people have long been unable to hold back. This time, I want to see which clowns dare to risk the world and stretch out their claws. ”
Even a name like Emperor Qin Yingzheng doesn't seem to be able to arouse Ji Xuanzong's jealousy, and between his words, he even unabashedly disdains it. I'm afraid that only his status would dare to say such a thing.
When he spoke, Ji Xuanzong's voice was very calm, and every word was still as unhurried as usual, without revealing the slightest murderous intent, oppression and evil spirit, as if he was telling something natural and justified. However, as the meaning of his words was revealed, Su Ziyu immediately felt an invisible pressure gradually spread, as if a huge spider spit out layers of dense silk threads, surrounded by a web of heaven and earth, and even vaguely pressed into the depths of his mind, making him feel very uncomfortable.
The bearded Ronard, who was already too frightened to speak, sat on the ground with a puff, and a little dampness oozed from his crotch.
"Since this person is willing to work for money, just dispose of it. From beginning to end, Ji Xuanzong didn't look at Lang Nade with half an eye, and said casually.
Although he didn't have a good impression of Lonard, he didn't know why, Su Ziyu didn't like this kind of behavior of treating human life like ants, and couldn't help but interject: "He's just an inconsequential character, he can't do much harm, and no one will believe what he says, so why bother." ”
Ji Xuanzong turned his head when he heard this, glanced at him lightly, and didn't say anything more, just thought about it, and a sudden wind suddenly rose in the closed room, rolled violently, and then disappeared.
Whew!
The wind blew the bed and furniture wildly, and directly flipped Ronard sitting on the ground, slamming against the wall, bleeding from his forehead, but it woke up the frightened little thug.
"Jesus Christ, the Virgin Mary, Allah God...... "Although he couldn't understand these strange Orientals, Lonard had a vague sense that he was about to die, and he didn't care about the pain, and he scrambled to get up and climb out of the back window, eager to get away from this terrible place and these terrible people at once."......
……
The heavy wooden door creaks and closes slowly, completely isolating the oval meeting room and creating a separate space.
In the quiet conference room, a young officer with a calm expression was giving a briefing.
"Since November, the incidence of vicious cases throughout North America has increased greatly, according to the comprehensive screening and investigation of the Special Strategic Defense Department, we have sorted out 37 cases that meet the special elements, the surveillance video and footage of the place where these cases occurred are completely damaged without exception, and the video images cannot be extracted, and we have notified the local police to seal and transfer all files and materials in accordance with the procedures. At the same time, according to the feedback from the Overseas Intelligence Department, similar cases around the world are also increasing at the same time......"
"Pause. Admiral Raymond Sisko knocked on the table, looking impatient. "I know these cases have something to do with the damn unstables, but I don't see any need to call a meeting. Everyone in this room has an important responsibility and time is precious. Also, I hope that some people will pay attention to their image, and this is the Joint Chiefs of Staff!"
At the end of the day, General Raymond turned his gaze diagonally across from the long table, where a man in camouflage was holding a thick cigar in his mouth with his legs crossed and spitting smoke.
"Raymond, I know an old man like you doesn't have much time left, but I thought I'd at least make it to the end of the briefing. ”
Hearing Raymond interrupt the briefing, the man raised his head, revealing a resolute face with towering cheekbones and sharp axes, the hair stubble on the top of his head was extremely short, and the roots were thick and black and shiny, as striking as steel thorns, and between the dazzling four-star epaulettes, there were a pair of sharp and cold brown eyes like a falcon.
"What are you talking about!?you damn ......"
Admiral Raymond, who was ridiculed, was trembling with anger, but before he could scold, he saw the man opposite's mouth bulge suddenly, spit out a smoke that was as straight as an arrow and more than two meters long, and suddenly crossed the space between the two, hitting his nose and mouth hard, choking him to close his eyes and cry, coughing repeatedly, and unable to say half a word.
Sitting around the long oval table were a dozen high-ranking officers of various shapes, with at least four gold stars on their shoulders, which shone brightly in the light of the conference room, enough to brighten the eyes of a blind man. The others seemed to be no strangers to the scene in front of them, but they also showed expressions of unbearable obscurity, frowning and shaking their heads, or cast disgusted and jealous glances at the man in camouflage uniform, but none of them stood up.
"Enough!" said five-star General William Hatzell, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, who was sitting at the head of the conference table, slammed the table with a blank face, first at the man smoking a cigar. "Henry, don't forget your military status, please show enough respect to your colleagues. ”
Immediately afterwards, he looked at the admiral who was coughing again and again on the other side: "General Raymond, the meeting of the chiefs of staff was convened by me, and I believe that as the commander of the Special Strategic Defense Department, General Henry's judgment of special forces is professional." If you have any comments, you can let them know after the briefing. ”
General Raymond, who had finally recovered his breath, blushed and reddened, and his expression was a little distorted when he wanted to have a seizure but forced his patience, but in the end, he snorted heavily and turned his head, only squeezing out a few inaudible words from between his teeth: "Henry O. Lane...... Barbarians ......"
General Henry just shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly, glanced at Raymond with a slight mockery and disdain, and then took a hard puff of his cigar and motioned to the young officer behind him: "Lieutenant, go on." ”
“…… Considering these sudden and frequent increases in violence around the world, as well as information gathered by the Intelligence Department, we believe that there is a force behind the scenes, plotting a recent attack on Liberty Island of an incalculable intensity......"
After the briefing, the lieutenant saluted and exited the room. The star-studded conference room fell silent for a moment, and everyone's expressions became much more solemn.
Liberty Island, for the vast majority of the world, is simply home to the Statue of Liberty, a famous attraction and landmark. However, the top brass of the North American military here knows exactly what lies beneath Liberty Island.
"Liberty Island, is the information correct, how would they know? Could it be the Orientals, do they want to provoke a war?" even General Raymond frowned, looking a little incredulous.
"Why are they attacking Liberty Island, it is not the first choice from a strategic point of view!"
"The base on Liberty Island can't hide it from them, but the contents are top secret, and it is impossible to leak out!"
"That's been at least a dozen years, and if they really know, there's no reason to wait until now to find out, it's completely illogical!"
The generals and officials talked about it.
"Tell me your judgment, Henry. William Hatzel frowned.
"If the attack does happen, it's a war. It's just that it won't be a war between nations, but a war waged against us by those who are unstable. Hyung said in his thick voice.
"In that case, there is nothing to worry about, the naval guns and missiles will make those who think they have superhuman strength regret provoking us. General Raymond breathed a sigh of relief, said in a smug tone, and glanced at Henry with a slightly provocative look.
"Whew!" Henry suckled out between his teeth and nodded with his cigar-holding hand. "Believe me, if it is really what I envisioned, your so-called naval guns and missiles will probably not do anything, General Raymond. This time, the news has spread too widely, and I am afraid that there will be many uncontrolled forces. ”
"There used to be some of these guys, but the power of the war machine has made them regret having the idea they shouldn't have!" Raymond argued.
"I said, this time is different! Gentlemen, I want you to be prepared so that you don't have to be in a hurry. Henry's expression froze.
"You mean, could there be a force as powerful as you?" General William's face became extremely gloomy.
"No one is as strong as I am!" Henry squeezed the remaining half of the cigar in the palm of his hand, seemingly unaware of the hot cigarette butt. "But yes, I'm afraid this time it's going to be interesting. ”
General William pondered for a long time, and finally made up his mind: "Henry, on behalf of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, I authorize the Special Strategic Defense Department and the Iron Condor Force to be responsible for this operation, and the navy, land and air forces will cooperate with your command." But it's Liberty Island, I hope you can control the situation as much as possible, these unknowable forces, don't let the civilians know too much!"
"Don't worry, I'll let them know that not everyone can afford to mess with them. ”
Henry's tone was as hard and cold as steel.
