"Thirty-five is just a superficial number, and seventeen other superpowers who have hidden their whereabouts have also been assassinated...... That includes my boss. Yan Bing said calmly: "Of course, you can also choose not to believe it, but I still kindly remind you...... The person behind this assassination may be more powerful than ever, and perhaps you will be able to use our Black Star Society's intelligence network. ”

Yan Xiuze didn't answer immediately, but stopped where he was, thought for a long time, and then suddenly said, "Just these are not enough. ”

"You've got to come up with more."

Looking at Yan Xiuze's serious face, Yan Bing, who had never been smiling, suddenly smiled.

"Okay...... Although the new weapons possessed by the assassins were very troublesome, more than fifty superpowers were killed as a result...... But not all of their assassinations were successful......"

"According to the real-time intelligence of our Black Star Society, one of them was a sniper who failed to assassinate the superpower, but was captured alive by him."

"Where is the sniper who failed the assassination attempt now?" Yan Xiuze hurriedly asked.

The rock soldier paused, and slowly said a location: "American ......"

"New York."

……

A plane flew through the sky, carrying Yan Bing and Yan Xiuze.

Knowing the existence of the captured sniper, Yan Xiuze immediately decided to go to New York to have a look first, in order to find any useful clues, of course, as a provider of intelligence, Yan Bing also represented the Black Star Society forces and participated in this investigation.

The two of them are actually equivalent to the vanguard of the two superpower forces, and if something is really found, there will naturally be follow-up forces to come to support.

Of course, Yan Xiuze probably never thought that one day he would actually cooperate with Yan Bing to do something - this is like in an ordinary fairy tale, the conflict between the brave and the evil dragon can never be reconciled, there is no reason, there is no reason...... There is no way for justice to be in league with evil.

But reality is often not a fairy tale, and after human beings have developed a moral system that is conducive to the stable development of society, they have been trying to make some things simpler...... But this is often in vain, because even the most simple values of good and evil will change their position when certain interests are touched...... Like Dragon Quest, if there is an unknowable being who intends to destroy the entire fairy tale world at this time, then even if it is as clear as the brave and the dragon, I am afraid that I will have to put aside the suspicion for a while and fight against foreign enemies first - but fairy tales will never be written like this.

Of course, although the brave and the evil dragon can be temporarily united in the face of common interests, the process of getting along in the middle must not be particularly good, just like Yan Xiuze and Yan Bing now, both of them sat in their seats, silently speaking to each other, and the atmosphere was obviously dull and a little embarrassing.

Perhaps in order to cultivate the degree of tacit understanding of cooperation in the future, Yan Xiuze seemed to have an intention to achieve an ice-breaking trip, he took the initiative to sit on the opposite seat of the rock soldier, spread his hands, and said casually: "Don't mind if I sit here?" ”

Iwabing glanced up at him and said lightly, "If I mind, will you leave from here?" ”

"Hehe, there's still twenty minutes to get to New York, why don't we have a chat?" Yan Xiuze directly ignored Yan Bing's words, and reopened the conversation: "To be honest, I was actually really surprised when I saw you at the headquarters of the Liberty Alliance today...... How did you come up with the idea to come to me for a job? ”

"It's not that I want to find you, it's my boss who ordered it." Iwabing replied.

"Your boss? Blackstar ...... What the Black Star commanded? ”

"That's right." Rock Soldier nodded: "My boss has told me that if something major changes suddenly happen in this world, such as an alien invasion and a full-scale war to exterminate the superpowers, the human race will start a full-scale war to exterminate the superpowers...... Or if he dies, on the premise that I believe that the Black Star will not be able to deal with these major changes on its own, then I must come to seek your help and cooperation from Yan Xiuze. ”

"So the fact that Blackstar thinks he's dead is also a major change in the world, right?" Yan Xiuze had a look on his face that teased me: "Uh, okay, then I still have a question - no offense, but I'm really curious: Is Black Star really dead?" Well, I mean, the kind of 'dead' in the truest sense of the word. ”

Hearing this, the rock soldiers were silent for a while before slowly replying, "Actually, it's nothing to tell you...... Our boss's superpower is the 'flesh and blood clone', he can have his original body while creating a clone that shares his original memories and completely replicates all aspects of his bodily functions. ”

"Usually the boss uses this doppelganger to walk in the outside world...... Therefore, for him, there is no such thing as death in the true sense of nature other than natural aging......"

"But if the flesh clone is destroyed and the flesh clone is condensed again, it will take at least a month to prepare...... And within a month, no one could contact him. ”

"No one has contacted Blackstar? Why, is it because the condensation of flesh and blood clones requires the participation of the subject's consciousness? Yan Xiuze's heart moved, and he continued to ask.

"Of course not, it's just ...... The owner didn't want to contact anyone. ”

"What's that reasoning?" Yan Xiuze asked with a smile.

Yan Bing glanced at Yan Xiuze and snorted coldly: "You obviously know why this is, why do you knowingly ask?" In this world, no one knows where his body is hidden except for the boss himself...... If you rashly contact the outside world during the period of condensing flesh and blood clones, isn't it equivalent to revealing your own ontological position? ”

"Even you don't know where the Black Star is hiding?" Yan Xiuze said in a meaningful tone: "I thought that Black Star really trusted you unconditionally, but I didn't expect that there would be a time when I would hide something from you." ”

"Hey, Yan Xiuze, everyone is a smart person, why bother with all these twists and turns...... You don't think I'm really going to be incited by such a clumsy way to sow discord, do you? Yan Bing said lightly.

"Haha, I'm just going to give it a try, what if it succeeds?" Suddenly being pierced by Yan Bing's dark thoughts, Yan Xiuze not only didn't have any embarrassment, but laughed indifferently: "But I'm really curious, what makes you so desperate to work for Black Star?" Money? Appreciated? A common philosophy? Or is it a pie drawn when the great cause is not accomplished? I don't look like it......"

"The reason why you have this curiosity, in the final analysis, is because you don't know what kind of person the boss is......" Yan Bing sneered, and didn't seem to answer Yan Xiuze's question head-on, but it seemed to ......

The answer has already been given.
