Chapter 720: Appearing Down
Renee pinched her chin, "That's it...... Then the situation is a bit troublesome. ”
Renee sorted out all the information she had gotten since the beginning, and she suddenly found a "loophole" and said bluntly: "By the way, when the Gray Queen's body erupted in white, purple and black flames before, you said that it was the Gray Queen's ability to press the bottom box." That's an emergency rhetoric, right? ”
Wu Qi was reminded by Renee and immediately remembered this stubble. Indeed, there is a lot of nonsense in this statement, Renee and the others are warriors who have fought against the Gray Queen and killed them once, and the obvious loopholes must not be hidden.
Talking about the information of the Gray Queen, Nero, Song Zha and other soldiers also came close to listen. As soon as Nero's group joined, it was suddenly much more difficult for Wu Qi to express intelligence information without revealing his identity.
Wu Qi said slowly: "That really doesn't look like the Gray Queen's ability, the Gray Queen is already immortal, how can she burn the vitality of her whole body just to kill us humans." ”
Renee had talked to Wu Qi before, and instantly knew that there was obviously something wrong with what Wu Qi said. found that Wu Qi's words were obviously deliberately said to Nero and them, and he said too much, and the accuracy of what he said was high, which could easily lead to speculation that was unfavorable to him.
The mission to investigate the corpse virus itself was supposed to continue, but now that the Gray Queen had been killed after the rampage, their only clue was broken. If there is no clue to continue, the progress of the mission can only be put on hold for the time being.
Her intuition told her that Wu Qi had something more to hide than atavism and true identity.
Renee wasn't sure what Wu Qi was hiding, and with their current relationship, it was impossible for her to tear down Wu Qi's stage in front of her teammates and put Wu Qi in danger.
Renee suddenly spoke, and said to Wu Qi, "Indeed, the Gray Queen did not use this ability when she was on the battlefield before. Maybe someone else gave her this ability, like the 'corpse virus'. ”
"Renee, you mean, there's a good chance that the Gray Queen's ability to burn three-color flames all over her body is also the nature of the 'Corpse Virus' ability?" Nero frowned slightly, and analyzed.
"Hmm." Renee nodded. She secretly glanced at Wu Qi and found that Wu Qi was very calm.
I guessed right.
"Wait, we all know the power of the corpse virus, if the Gray Queen's 'ghost fire ability' that burns out her life force is also the ability of the same person behind the scenes, then the strength of this black hand behind the scenes may ...... It's not something we can fight against at all," Song Zha said excitedly.
The soldiers were silent, and that was exactly what happened. The "corpse virus" that spreads like a plague is so tenacious that it has no weaknesses, and can even infect third-order overlord-level lifeforms; If that mastermind also has an ability that burns life in exchange for high-intensity energy and can bestow on other third-order overlords, then it is very likely that the mastermind himself is a third-order peak life.
This dangerous life lurks in a corner of the Fallen Zone, and if he wants to attack the northern front one day, his threat level is probably even higher than that of the Gray Queen. The combat power of their investigation team may not be enough for the mastermind behind the scenes.
Nero thought for a moment, and finally announced: "Our investigation mission has achieved considerable results so far. The Grey Queen is dead, her legions are in ruins, and we have new information about who is behind it. That's enough to report......"
Wu Qi looked at Nero coldly, and abruptly interrupted: "Slow, when you cooperated, you said that you had the determination to kill the mastermind behind the scenes, so I cooperated with you." ”
Nero said without flinching: "The clue is broken, and there is no point in continuing the mission." Besides, we have already analyzed how strong the mastermind behind the scenes is, and what if we find the other party with a team of remnants? Can you win? It is the duty of the soldiers to retreat strategically here, and then return to the occupied area to continue the investigation after the rearmament is completed. ”
"You mean, it's justified to regret it?" Wu Qi is not good at authenticity. He clenched the long knife in his right hand, and he looked like he would draw it at any moment.
Nero said calmly: "Yes, but in fact, do you have the consciousness and strength to kill the mastermind behind the scenes?" You're just using your words to lower our vigilance so that we can join the team smoothly. ”
Nero glanced down at the armor skirt composed of pitch-black scales on the lower half of Wu Qi's body, and continued: "There are some secrets, don't think that you won't reveal your feet if you hide them. It is the duty of a soldier to carry out orders, and you have saved our lives, and we are gracious. For the sake of this kindness, we will return you a favor as if the order was not sent to us. Since then, we have both parted ways, each without interfering! ”
Wu Qi's expression cooled down like an extremely cold winter, he hadn't taken the step of really making a move, and the air was filled with a tense atmosphere.
Once Wu Qi draws his sword, Nero will unceremoniously activate his third-order ability, "Reverse Bone", in an instant. Although he didn't think that he could win the "Qi Wu" in his heyday, if he really wanted to decide a Wang Kou, the "Qi Wu" who was greater than them in terms of consumption and injury would never have a chance of winning.
The atmosphere grew so fast that she didn't even give Renee a chance to react. Here she is the most difficult person, helping Nero, helping Wu Qi, or neither of them is the solution she wants.
A hoarse, strange voice coldly broke the stalemate, followed by a brisk clapping of hands.
"It's really worthy of being a human being, and even the traces of this seat have not been traced before they start fighting infighting, and they really haven't disappointed this seat."
The sudden sound in the empty air shocked everyone present, and a figure with a terrifying and eerie aura suddenly appeared where the voice sounded.
At the same time, a strong sense of crisis exploded in the hearts of Niro and Wu Qi. They did the same thing in an instant, their eyes and attacks pointing at the figure who called themselves "Main Seat"!
The true face of the figure was a tall blood-robed man. Wu Qi stepped between the lightning and flint and stepped within three feet of the blood-robed man, his right arm waved like a strong whip, and the sharp long knife attacked the blood-robed man's neck with a murderous aura!
The bones of the blood-robed man's neck, elbows, and knees "clucked" in unison, and suddenly there was a 180-degree reversal of the anomaly, which was the effect of the 100% power explosion of Nero's "anti-bone" ability. The reversal of the joint bones made it impossible for the blood-robed man to dodge and defend in time, completely exposing the vital point of his neck to Wu Qi.
It was a blink of an eye for the knife to fall, Wu Qi was so fast that even the shadow of the knife had evaporated, coupled with Nero's sudden control ability, the blood-robed man had no time or distance to dodge or block Wu Qi's fatal knife.
This is a must-hit cut. The knife wind that tore through the air blew on the neck of the blood-robed man, but what caught everyone's eyes in the next second was not the scene of a long knife slashing the blood-robed man's head.
The tip of the three-foot-long knife came to an abrupt halt at an extremely close distance of 1 millimeter from the neck of the blood-robed man.
