The thick darkness of the cold night gradually whitened, and the death of the six guards in the snowy night was like a small splash in the calm atmosphere of the refuge area. I don't know for what reason, Xiongkun finally blocked the news and concealed it, and did not disclose the news to the War Department.

Including Chen Chong, who was still cultivating frantically and accumulating his current strength, the high-level leaders such as Xing Zhan, Qiu Mengyue, and Wu Zheng didn't know about it.

The next day.

In a dark, cold underground morgue.

Gu Yuelong and Xuexin, the two major generals of the Northern Theater, stood in front of the six corpses covered by white cloth, their eyes were cold, and their tone was stiff:

"Si Chief, what's the matter with these six corpses?"

"Why didn't we be notified of such an important situation when the demons reappeared?

In the morning, Si Chengxiu sent someone to secretly inform them, saying that there was something important to discuss with them, but when they came over, they saw the six corpses that had died at the hands of humans and demons.

And in addition to the anger that the human demon dared to appear again, they also had dissatisfaction with the high-level of the refuge area in their hearts.

"I'm sorry, you two, it's not that I don't want to let you know in time, but yesterday was a bit extraordinary. ”

Si Chengxiu sighed lowly:

"Don't get me wrong, not only you, but also the top brass of the War Department have not yet been informed. This news is now known only to me and a few people in the Ministry of Health, and it has not been disclosed to the outside world. ”

"Huh?"

Obviously hearing something from Si Chengxiu's words, Xue Xin's cold eyes froze:

"What do you mean? Why are you deliberately hiding it? Who are you guarding against?"

Si Chengxiu sighed: "We did catch some clues, but ....... Let's see for yourself!"

As he spoke, a taciturn entourage of cronies behind Si Chengxiu turned on the laptop computer he was holding in his hand and sent it to Gu Yuelong and Xue Xin.

What is shown on the screen is the surveillance footage that was diagonally facing the alley yesterday.

Gu Yuelong and Xue Xin frowned, and they didn't ask more, their eyes staring at the blurred picture.

Time passed little by little, and when a group of soldiers suddenly froze and fell down on the screen a few minutes later, and then a blurred figure and silver light jumped out of the alley and disappeared in a flash, the faces of the two of them immediately changed slightly.

Gu Yuelong stretched out his hand violently to pause the picture, reversing frame by frame, and finally froze on the picture where the blurry figure appeared.

Faintly you can see that the figure is tall, and it happens to be on one side of the face that was photographed by the surveillance, and the eyes seem to be shining silver.

"This is a human demon?!"

Gu Yuelong and Xue Xin's eyes suddenly lit up:

"He seems to be ......"

I felt that this vague figure seemed to be somewhat familiar, but I didn't dare to say the second half of the sentence easily.

Silver pupils were uncommon, and they had seen them since they came to the refuge area.

That's the head of the war department, the criminal war!

Gu Yuelong's face was cloudy, he turned his head to look at Si Chengxiu, and said in a deep voice: "Si Kuitou, the surveillance screen is blurry, what do you want to tell me through this?"

Si Chengxiu raised his hand and waved away the entourage, and only after the entourage left did he say slowly:

"The two of you, Ming people don't say secret words, this surveillance picture is blurry, and there is no substantial evidence, but it makes me very uneasy. Is it possible that we are in the dark all the time?"

The expressions of Gu Yuelong and Xue Xin condensed into ice, and their eyes flashed rapidly.

They naturally understood what Si Chengxiu was talking about, and in fact, after they saw this surveillance footage, they couldn't help but have a little suspicion.

Now that I think about it, could the leader of the refuge area be a human demon?

They knew that anyone up and down the refuge area could be a human demon, even if it was a torture war, but it had been dark before, and no one of them had thought about it!

How terrifying should a third-order human demon be? Even if both of them were high-ranking and powerful senior generals in the Northern Theater, they couldn't help but shudder when they thought of this possibility.

"I think it's a little weird. ”

Thinking of this, Xue Xin said categorically:

"From the first time the demon created a bloody case, to the three consecutive times before we came, this demon has never left any handle, why was it caught by surveillance this time? And it has always been cautious, lurking indoors to commit crimes, why did it choose to be outdoors this time?"

"Not bad. It is not ruled out that it may be suspicious and let us mess with ourselves!"

Gu Yuelong also frowned and said:

"This surveillance screen is so blurry, it can't prove anything at all, I think we still don't want to be all soldiers, so as not to fall for the tricks of people and demons!"

"That's what the two of them said. With the cunning of humans and demons, it is indeed possible to deliberately disturb our vision. ”

Si Chengxiu didn't have any surprised expression, and sighed lightly:

"It's that I'm too nervous. ”

"The same cannot be said. It's normal to have suspicions after watching this surveillance footage, whether it's the trajectory of humans or demons, we just need to be vigilant. ”

Gu Yuelong waved his hand and looked at Xue Xin:

"Well, can you tell something with [Mind Trace]?"

Xue Xin shook her head: "No, people who are killed and devoured by demons, all their souls and consciousness are gone, and they can't use [Mind Backtracking] to see the picture before death." ”

The [Mind Retrieval] in Xue Xin's mouth is not a special ability unique to an individual, in fact, all those who are at the boundary of the third-order [Mind Spirit System] have such a means of using the power of the mind, that is, they can read the consciousness of the deceased who has just died and have not yet dissipated, and see the picture before death again.

But humans and demons feed on souls, and after the dead are killed by humans and demons and their souls are extracted, this ability is useless. Otherwise, with the extraordinary perceptual and discriminatory ability of the [Nian Spirit System] new human beings, the humans and demons in the Northern Theater would have been invisible for a long time.

"It's a pity......"

After staying in the Northern War Zone for two or three months, Si Chengxiu obviously already knew what the [Mind Traceback] in Xue Xin's mouth was, and sighed regretfully.

The three of them continued to talk in the morgue for a while, but they didn't come to any conclusions, and Gu Yuelong and Xue Xin left with solemn expressions.

In the morgue, a cold aura was permeating, Si Chengxiu looked at the six corpses covered with white cloth in front of him, his face was expressionless, and the corners of his mouth hooked an arc:

"The seeds have been planted, so there is still one last step left......"

......

Time passes. In the blink of an eye, two days have passed,

All the survivors in the refuge area had a vague sense that the atmosphere that had been somewhat relaxed suddenly became more oppressive and urgent, and some did not know why. After all, the deaths of the six patrol soldiers were secretly sealed by Xiongkun, and even the other high-ranking members of the three ministries knew nothing, let alone ordinary survivors.

And Chen Chong, who has been cultivating frantically day and night to accumulate current power, is also ignorant of the undercurrent surging between the top leaders.

In the power room, Chen Chong's whole person sat still like a sculpture, and the crackling electric light flickered in all directions, setting off his whole person as if he was a child of thunder and lightning, which was daunting.

In Chen Chong's body, the majestic, majestic, and mighty electromagnetic true qi was galloping endlessly, emitting a rumbling thunder sound. And in the dantian area, the spiral core of the electromagnetic true qi was rotating wildly, and the high-voltage current that was enough to kill an ordinary person instantly was swimming in his body like blood.

After more than half a month of mad demon-like cultivation, before he knew it, Chen Chong's [Electric Current Propulsion] power realm had climbed to 470,000 volts!

This is what he has earned from his crazy cultivation 24 hours a day.

It is impossible for the vast majority of new human beings to concentrate their minds on life cultivation for a long time, or even all day. There are also a very small number of geniuses whose minds and talents crush ordinary people, who can improve their concentration to an unprecedented level and carry out a high-intensity, long-term state of cultivation.

But Chen Chong's will and endurance were undoubtedly much more terrifying than theirs. The frenzied electric shock pain that was enough to make people collapse in a few minutes was already commonplace for him, his will was harder than steel, and he would do whatever it took to pursue strength, the pain that the [Electrotherapy] practice gave to Chen Chong was no longer pain, and even evolved into a distorted pleasure.

From this point of view, even without the help of the main god, people like Chen Chong still definitely have the mind and potential to become a strong person!

Not only is it the realm of strength, but at this time, his main god has also reached an astonishing level of 39786!

At this rate, as long as tonight passes, he will be able to exchange the S-level Thunder Fruit.

......

It was also in Chen Chong's unconscious cultivation that the sky gradually darkened and entered the middle of the night.

When the cold night came, a large number of guards began to patrol the night again, Xiongkun stood in front of the window and looked at the lights outside, his heart was cloudy.

He hasn't closed his eyes for two days since he saw the surveillance. An invisible haze hung over him all the time, making it difficult for him to sleep.

After repeated thoughts, he also found that the surveillance screen was full of suspicions, which may be a trick used by humans and demons to set up suspicions.

But once the suspicion sprouts in his heart, it can't help but bring some subtle influences, and Xiongkun even involuntarily rose up with the idea of sending someone to monitor the trend of the criminal war, and then was dispelled by him.

As a third-order boundary person, even the strongest among the three leaders, unless he came forward, there was no way to monitor a powerhouse of this level.

The past flashed in his mind, Xiongkun sighed, and sat back in his chair, like a silent sculpture.

......

A few hours later, the cold wind whined, and most of the cold night had passed, and in the streets and alleys, a team of soldiers of the guard department looked blue with frozen faces, and their eyes were full of tiredness.

The sky was faintly blue, and it would be dawn in an hour or two.

In a certain building, the room was pitch black, and Si Chengxiu was wearing a black robe that blended with the darkness, with a pair of dark eyes, staring out the window.

Crackling!

The next moment, in a burst of broken bones, Si Cheng's slender figure suddenly began to swell and rise, and the whole person suddenly became more burly and tall.

Not only that, but the slightly pale skin on his face unexpectedly fluctuated like waves, and as his muscles and skin squirmed, his eyes, nose, mouth and other facial features and face shape began to change rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, he became a different look!

That's what the head of the Ministry of Justice looks like.

At this moment, Si Chengxiu's body shape, appearance, and demeanor have become exactly the same as Xing Zhan!

"It's time to ......"

Si Chengxiu let out a hoarse chuckle that was very different from his original voice, and then slowly pulled on the mask, his figure flashed, and suddenly disappeared into the silent darkness outside.
