Chapter VI Hidden Dangers
It had been more than half an hour since Su Mo entered the underground base of the Cross Order, and even if the other party's internal strife was severe, it was impossible to continue fighting when a major enemy had killed the base camp.
It took about fifteen minutes to clean up the mess, barely reached a tentative agreement, and another twenty minutes to discuss how to deal with Su Mo.
Now the Crucifixion has begun to fight back in earnest - although Su Mo has no intention of dealing with some people at all, he is just here to find the cause of his own problems.
The Cross Order is only Su Mo's first stop, and of course, if he finds it here, this will also be his last stop.
"I don't know what the Night King wants to do, but it's too unpleasant to be hereβ"
The man in the picture spoke, and in the middle of speaking, Su Mo casually grabbed a pen holder on the table next to him and threw it directly towards the ceiling behind him.
The projector, which was sticking out of the wall for some distance, was smashed by the pen holder, and the image in front of him disappeared in an instant. Su Mo looked away and continued to stare at the screen in front of him.
The corners of Lu Ren's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but turn around and ask, "Why did you smash it?" β
"Too lazy to listen." Su Mo waved his hand, "It's nothing more than some nonsense." β
"......" Regarding Su Mo's domineering behavior, Lu Ren felt that he couldn't find a better way to respond except for silence.
"What does he mean by that!"
In the conference room, I saw Su Mo's actions on the screen, and then my projection disappeared. The man's eyes widened, his fists clenched suddenly, and a few words were squeezed out between his teeth.
"What does he want to do?" One of them said, "Don't you want to talk to us?" β
"Haha."
Someone else laughed, "Talk to us, I've already said it, this monster doesn't take us seriously at all." What does he have to talk to us about? β
"Not necessarily." Someone analyzed with a serious face, "Judging from his current actions, the purpose of his coming here is not to kill us or take revenge or anything, but to find something." β
"The regimental commander failed to kill him, but still injured him? He wants to recover? "There are doubts.
"Then take this opportunity and kill him!"
The conference room was a mess, with more than a dozen people arguing.
"Alright, shut up!" The man who projected just now suddenly burst out, suppressed all the other voices, stared at Su Mo on the screen and said, "Since he wants to stay here, stay here, let's go!" This place is going to be this guy's grave! β
There was a brief silence, and everyone nodded.
In the face of a monster that can't be killed, can't be defeated, and has no meaning to communicate at all, what can they do? Giving up this base as a cage for that monster and escaping himself is already the best way.
"From now on, there will be no more Crucifixion." Someone said something, and the tone was quite embarrassing.
With the death of the leader, the infighting among them, and the pressure of the Night King, the Cross Order, which could have lasted for a year or two, completely fell apart the moment they decided to use this place as Su Mo's "burial ground".
"Your Excellency...... We're stuck here. β
Ever since Su Mo rudely smashed the projector and expressed his attitude that he didn't bother to talk about it at all, the room fell into silence, and even the sound outside disappeared.
In the entire base, it seems that there are only two people left, Su Mo and Lu Ren.
"It's you, not me." Su Mo didn't raise his head, looking at the screen in front of him, his brows furrowed, showing that he was not in a very good mood.
Poisoning the king, to put it bluntly, is aimed at him, and it is a plan to kill him. Unlike the plan of the concentric locks to suppress the joint efforts of multiple organizations, this plan to poison the king was planned and executed by only one person - the dead head of the Crusaders.
From beginning to end, even the insider was the only one who knew about that guy, and it was naturally impossible for Su Mo to know about this plan to "poison the king".
This plan was as vicious as the other plan to use concentric locks to kill Su Mozhen. That plan directly regarded Tang You as an outcast, and in this plan, the head of the sect directly regarded himself as "poison".
This old fellow, I don't know where he got some kind of powder that even he couldn't figure out, mixed it with the liquid, and injected it into the human body, and after a while, that person would disappear, leaving no trace, as if it had completely evaporated, and not even a drop of blood or a single cell would be left.
No matter how much the Crusader tried to figure out the composition of the powder, he could only conclude that it was not a substance on earth.
Of course, not understanding the composition of "poison" does not affect the use of poison.
To deal with Su Mo, these people naturally knew Su Mo's most powerful and terrifying devouring ability. If you eat the "food" that carries no antidote, then even if you are an undead monster, will you die like this?
In history, there have been many kings who have been poisoned.
Another monster of the year, Arcat, was also half-dead in a similar way, disappearing for many years before reappearing.
The plan was so secret that there was only one person who knew about it from beginning to end, and the others, including the test subjects, no longer existed.
"Let that guy give him a handful." Su Mo secretly said in his heart, he recalled that after that guy died, there was an injection hidden under his clothes, but it didn't attract Su Mo's attention at that time.
Unexpectedly, that guy was so ruthless that he didn't hesitate to calculate himself after sacrificing his disciple.
Now, Su Mo is facing a relatively big problem, that is, how to get rid of the influence of that unknown "poison".
Completely vaporize people? For ordinary people, it may be this effect, but for Su Mo, it may not be, that day is just a feeling of being away from the world, other than that, it has no other impact on Su Mo for the time being.
But after all, it is "poison", and if it cannot be "detoxified", it is always a very serious hidden danger. The effect was not obvious that day, and who knows which day it will break out?
When it comes to detoxification, there are two methods, one is to configure the antidote for the poison, and the poison named "The End of the Tyrant" by that old guy doesn't even know the ingredients, and the road is naturally blocked.
The only way left is to increase one's own strength, so strong that the poison has no way to affect it, and then the problem will be solved.
"That's the rough picture."
Retracting his gaze from the last word in the document, Su Mo leaned back in his chair, as if thinking about something, completely ignoring the constant explosions outside and the increasingly violent tremors in the room.
However, Su Mo didn't care didn't mean that Lu Ren didn't care, I saw him stammering and shouting at Su Mo with great difficulty: "Them, they want to destroy the entire base!" They want to bury us alive! β
"It's you, not me." Su Mo finally stood up, and the lights above his head began to flicker and flicker, proving that this room would not last long.
With Su Mo's words, the light in the room couldn't support it at first, and it flickered, and the room suddenly fell into darkness.
Lu Renwei screamed, and he didn't know where he took out a flashlight and turned it on.
"Ahhh
As soon as he turned on the flashlight, he saw a slightly pale face appear in front of him, and Lu Ren let out an extremely tragic cry.
"How did you join the Crucifixion? Sure enough, one generation is not as good as the next. At that time, the Order had the courage to pull out a little guy and just face me head-on. Su Mo in front of Lu Ren sighed faintly, and his tone of leaning on the old and selling the old made people want to beat him.
"I'm leaving, before I leave, I think I'd better help you." Su Mo took a step forward and said to Lu Ren, who was screaming.
The screams stopped suddenly, and Lu Ren looked at Su Mo with incredible eyes: "You mean that you can take me out together?" β
"No, it's just that your death is not so painful, choose, whether it will end in an instant or wait here for death." The cold muzzle of the gun hit Lu Ren's forehead, and Su Mo said with a smile, "I'm really a good person." Five seconds, decide quickly, five, four, three......"
"Don't, don't!" Lu Ren shouted loudly.
"Oh, goodbye then." Su Mo casually threw the pistol, and a layer of black began to spread all over his body.
In Lu Ren's horrified gaze, Su Mo's whole person directly turned into a black shadow, sliding out like a puddle of black ink along the gap in the room and disappearing.
Lu Ren's eyes widened, looking at the unexpected thing in front of him. Although he had heard of some special people in the Cross Order, he still felt a huge shock when he saw a person turn into a black shadow in front of him, wandering through the cracks.
"Acater's ability is really useful."
A black shadow turned back into Su Mo above the ground.
This ability to turn into a shadow did not come from Su Mo himself. In fact, in the beginning, this guy didn't have any special abilities other than being powerful enough, fast enough, and immortal.
Some of Su Mo's special abilities came from those who were devoured by him, but it was not easy to completely acquire the abilities of others.
For example, in Acat, Su Mo only obtained the ability of his avatar, and only this one was preserved. The abilities that he had previously acquired from other people had disappeared with Su Mo's process of freeing himself from the shackles of the piece of paper.
That night, for Su Mo, it was like being reborn again.
"However, this is the damned era of the end of the law, how can I increase my strength?" Su Mo muttered softly, sat in a black car, and quickly blended into the night.
