Hazy and obscure darkness, a light falling from above.

The pale yellow light is out of place in this environment, and I want to find the source of the light but can't see where the lamp is.

And where the light shines, a round table with a diameter of about two meters gradually emerges.

It's not a wooden table for eating or placing items.

It is surrounded by a reddish-brown wooden rim, with a hollow dark green rough leather in the middle, and some red and green square marks on it.

There is no doubt that this is a gaming table.

Virtual light waves flashed, and chips were stacked on top of each other, most of them red and black, and occasionally some pure gold chips, which were very delicate.

The three decks of playing cards fanned out in the center, and no one touched them, interspersed and scattered back and forth.

Footsteps rang out one after another around the table.

A hand with a jeweled ring first rests on the back of the chair on the left, followed by a bloated fat man, covered with a robe that resembles that of an emperor of European monarchy, with a crown crooked on his head.

Pulling out a chair and sitting on it, frowning and moving from side to side before he was barely satisfied.

"Gwen, I don't understand why you use this feeling that you will be pulled to the execution table at any moment, I feel sick to watch. ”

On the chair opposite the fat man, another person appeared at some point, dressed as a hippie, with dreadlocks on his head, tattoos on almost every part of his body, a glass of amber whiskey in his hand, and a hoarse voice teasing the fat man known as Gwen.

"In my time, most people like you were wallowing in the mud of the manor, and the goods were just marked for their goods. ”

Gwen was obviously not a good person to get along with, and threw a white handkerchief in front of the other party, contrasting with the color of his skin and sneering in return.

"Hey, it's easy to undermine our internal unity, which isn't a good sign, because we're companions..... An irreplaceable companion. ”

Dressed in a layer of tulle, the fiery girl was half-leaning on the side of the table with a leather whip in her hand, and her eyes fluttered, and she said,

"Bonaparte, I heard something happened to you. ”

"The arena was destroyed by a monster created by the Ouroboros, a human testing ground for Ouroboros...... In fact, I'm not sure if they created it, because it's a spiritual pollution source monster, according to the current sequence published by the Archaeological Association, it is the lowest known spiritual pollution source, the horror hunter!"

At the mention of this, Bonaparte slapped the table with an ugly face, and a light screen flashed in front of him, on which the video of the gladiatorial arena was played.

If the people in the gladiatorial arena were here, they would be extremely surprised, because this video was intercepted and sealed by them at the first time, in order not to damage the reputation of the gladiatorial arena, and they only claimed that there was an accident with the challenger.

"I'm more concerned than the horror hunter about the man who killed him in the gladiatorial arena, daring to break into the laboratory of the Ouroboros organization and being able to retreat calmly, who is he, Gwen, can you find the information?"

Directly north of the table, there was a figure piled up in the form of data blocks from the bottom up, and the girl who was still scratching her head immediately pasted it.

"Larsen, male, 32 years old, was born in the No. 26 community of Xiacheng District, Qianfan City...... From his resume, I can't find anything that could possibly give him such a formidable power. ”

Straightening the crown on her head, Gwen's eyes flashed with a stream of data, and in a short time she recounted Larsen's past as if reading a manuscript.

"Someone should have impersonated him in some way, analyze it in detail, Bonaparte, zoom in on the video, I want to see the weapon in his hand. ”

His gaze lingered on the video for a few seconds, and the man in the suit spoke again.

"No problem, who made you the boss. ”

Raising his eyebrows casually, the video was magnified dozens of times in an instant, and the camera was directly locked on the long knife.

"Three days and moon swords!"

Without waiting for the man to speak, the girl's body suddenly leaned forward, and while lying on the table, she stared at the video and said,

"I recognize it, five years ago in the hands of the owner of the Grotesque Studio, at that time there were a lot of wonderful videos, "Unspeakable Series", this is a must-see video for my usual pastime, but isn't that person dead, five years ago after the Yecheng cataclysm, there was no news, and the person in the video actually got his saber. ”

"I have something to do, let's leave for a while. ”

Directly south of the table, there was a person who had not been seated, Gwen, Bonaparte, the girl with the glass, Lilith, and the man sitting due north had actually noticed her, but they had tacitly not accosted her.

It wasn't until she said she was leaving that everyone looked at her.

Without any explanation, she disappeared from the table the moment the words fell.

"What's wrong with her, she suddenly wants to leave without saying a word?"

Lilith asked in a coquettish voice, putting her arms around the man's neck.

"Nothing, just old things...... The laboratory of the Ouroboros organization has been completely destroyed, they will not give up, compared to the next puppet will make a lot of noise one day, send people to negotiate with them, we also have to prepare for action, it's just that the community at the bottom can no longer meet our needs, Industrial Zone 20, we must take it!"

For Lilith's intimate seduction, the man didn't even mean to glance at the wonderful scenery.

"Your will will be carried out. ”

Gwen likes this, even if he represents the monarch, this kind of dialogue that puts himself in the position of a subordinate and makes him very happy.

"Got it, I'll go back and talk to the cubs below about a plan, and I'll tell you when the time comes. ”

Bonaparte twisted his neck, the dreadlocks on his head swayed from side to side, and his speech was full of hooligan-style casualness.

Only from his occasional glance at the Lord's gaze, he could clearly see awe and obedience.

......

Leaving the gladiatorial arena, Zhu Jue, who had long since changed back to his original state, did not leave the No. 28 community directly, but came to the outer street where he had met with Fei Lin before.

The original intention of this operation was just to catch Butner Gray, and Zhu Jue didn't expect that there would be so many accidents and twists in the middle, but fortunately, the final result was good.

Through Batner Gray's mutation, the connection between Ouroboros and Zero was confirmed, and Zhu Jue also obtained two additional key clues.

One of them is naturally that there is information about human experiments in the culture room, and this part can be handed over to Suzi for examination after going back, and if nothing else, a lot of valuable clues can be found.

The second was obtained after killing the Psychic Pollution Monster mutated by Batner Gray.

Raising his right hand in front of his chest, the spatial ring activated, and a small light blue vortex appeared in the palm of his hand, and in a short time, a fist-sized dark red echinoderm ball appeared in his hand.

Looking at the things in his hand, Zhu Jue couldn't help but recall the situation at that time.

Originally, he was ready to leave immediately after giving the final blow to the spiritual pollution source monster, but before it fell, Zhu Jue unexpectedly found that its head had undergone a mutation, and a large amount of black colloids seeped out from the wound and some disgusting holes around the skull.

What's even more bizarre is that these colloidal fluids did not slide in all directions according to the laws of physics, but converged as if they had been pulled in some way, and finally transformed into a state that looked like a thorn bush in Zhujue's eyes, and this ball was found in it.

The whole process may seem complicated, but in fact, it only takes a few seconds.

"Why do you think it's so familiar......"

The more he thought about the picture at that time, the more familiar Zhu Jue felt, and he wrinkled his brows and thought, and suddenly used the space ring again.

This time, it was a photograph.

The crime scene photo sent by Rona shows the man whose bones in his body have changed and turned into a tree of thorns!

After staring at the photo for a while, Zhu Jue found that it was very similar to the impression in his mind, except that the image shown in the photo was like the iconic image of the Thorn Sect, while the monster grew out of the top of its head as a mess of "thorns".

Is there an inside story between the Thorn Sect and Ouroboros that they didn't even think of?

What is this ball in your hand?

You must know that there are many spiritual pollution source monsters that died in Zhu Jue's hands, but this is the first time he has encountered this kind of change, and if it is said that it is something that was bred by the monster itself, he will not believe it.

"Mr. Agent!"

The sound from the mouth of the alleyway interrupted Zhu Jue's thinking, and Fei Lin's little yellow umbrella was very recognizable, and he rushed over after seeing the former, with an extremely reluctant smile on his face.

I have to say that Fei Lin was still relatively lucky, because he had been waiting for Zhu Jue's call, and because he was not interested in the bloody scenes in the gladiatorial arena, he did not fully pay attention to the arena, and the position he stood in was relatively backward, and when the escape passage at the back of the gladiatorial arena opened, he became the first batch of people to jump on the slide.

It's just that even so, she has been somewhat affected, and her current mental state is really not normal.

Before Fei Lin could run to Zhu Jue's side, a silver-white object was thrown by the latter, and Fei Lin braked sharply and caught it.

A lighter with emeralds embedded in it.

"Butner Gray's stuff should be worth a lot of money, just treat it as compensation that he was voluntarily given to you, and just apologize, it's impossible for him to do it now. ”

Zhu Jue noticed Fei Lin's pale face, as the initiator of the chaos in the gladiatorial arena, he thought about it and threw something over,

"This is my homemade incense, take it home and light it, it will make your mental state better, remember to check your hue value, goodbye!"

After speaking, Zhu Jue left directly, and ordinary people like Fei Lin would only get into trouble if they were too involved with him.

It was early in the morning when I returned to the clinic.

Walking on the street at the door, Zhu Jue has changed back to his original appearance.

The lights on the second floor are on, and Suko should return for a while.

Stop in front of a vending machine.

Simple operation.

Puff ~ Puff ~

There were two muffled sounds at the bottom of the vending machine, and Zhu Jue bent down and reached in, and took out two cans of yogurt with a puzzled expression.

Glancing at the checkout screen of the vending machine, I really only bought a can of yogurt.

"Buy one, get one free, or is it a bug?"

opened a can casually and smacked his lips, Zhu Jue did not dwell on this issue, and walked into the clinic with a mutter,

"It's also a city of technology, and even a vending machine can go wrong. ”
