Chapter 153: Can't Raise Your Hand
As Zhang Hong spat out the three words I admit, the room suddenly fell silent.
Tang Feng was stunned, and slowly let go of his hand. He asked, a little strangely, "You confessed?"
Zhang Hong pulled the tightened neckline loose, and his voice was low and a little flustered: "I admit that I was coerced by the imperial people and helped them do something." But I can't help it. Everybody hesitates when faced with this kind of choice, doesn't it? I, I don't want things to be like this. ”
Xiao Chen said, "What handle do you have in the hands of the imperial people?"
"It doesn't matter. Anyway, after they fooled me into meeting, they took my life in their hands. That day in Kuroki Pass, as long as I didn't obey, they had the ability to make me lose everything, including my life. So I do whatever they say, and that's all I can do. However, I have not hurt anyone myself. Zhang Hong said with an angry expression.
"You didn't do it yourself, but how many people did you kill by your actions, and how many of your companions lost their lives that day?" Tang Feng said loudly, "Your life is life, and other people's lives are not life?"
"I'm not afraid of what you say, for me, my life is more precious than anyone else's. You ask yourself, will you exchange your own life for someone else's?" Zhang Hong said and stood up, "You yourself are not willing to exchange your life for your life, what qualifications do you have to accuse me? ”
Tang Feng couldn't help but scold angrily, but Xiao Chen stretched out his hand to stop him, "Zhang Hong, there's no point in talking about this, I'll just ask you, do you admit these accusations against us?"
"I admit it. I guessed for a long time that there would be a day when I wrote a document and confessed everything that day, so see for yourself. Zhang Hong stood up and walked to the desk, pretending to show the materials to the others, but in fact his hand touched the scroll that had been hidden in advance. And when he got up, he released a thread of spiritual power, pulling a trigger point on the hedron grenade that he had already arranged.
The magic circle on the spar grenade suddenly lit up, Xiao Chen immediately felt that something was wrong, he found the sudden magic fluctuation under the corner of the table, this feeling was familiar to him, it was the feeling when the spar grenade was about to explode, he roared: "There! There is a fluctuation of the spar grenade." ”
He swept it with his mental power, and found the hedron grenade that was about to be detonated. However, the spiritual power released by Xiao Chen immediately turned into several silk threads, and one by one they struck several points in the grenade detonation array, stopping the explosion of the grenade.
As he screamed, the attention of the others was also focused on the grenade. Zhang Hong took the opportunity to grab the scroll and began to cast a spell. From the beginning, he didn't expect that grenade to really blow up anyone, he knew that Xiao Chen would definitely have a way to delay or stop the grenade from exploding, but this grenade would definitely attract everyone's attention and give him time to use the scroll. It only takes four or five seconds for him to be undisturbed and be able to complete the spell.
Picking up the scroll, infusing spiritual power, and drawing the magic structure, everything went so smoothly that he couldn't help but applaud his steady play, but just as he was about to complete the spell, another magical energy erupted from his shoulder, interfering with the spell in his hand, and the teleportation magic that had been completed suddenly became unstable again.
"Spell Disturbance?"
Zhang Hong suddenly remembered that Xiao Chen patted him on the shoulder when he entered the door, could it be that at that time, he unknowingly applied the disturbance spell on his body?
This spell interferes with the magic energy around the target for a short period of time, greatly reducing the success rate of the spell and increasing the additional damage if the cast fails.
Xiao Chen turned around at this time and warned, "Stop your magic, once the teleportation magic fails, you will die a miserable death." ”
"As long as you let me go, please stop your spell, I, I can't stop. Zhang Hong said on his lips, but he continued to activate the scroll in his hand, he was now like manipulating a runaway car swaying on the road, and the car could be destroyed and killed anytime and anywhere, "I can't stay, otherwise I will be miserable." For the sake of all the years we've known each other, let me go. ”
Xiao Chen shook his head slowly and said, "I won't give you this opportunity." Stopping and being honestly judged is the fate you deserve. ”
"No, no, you don't want me to die like this, do you?" let go, let me go!" Zhang Hong roared, and teleportation of magical ripples had begun to erupt around him, but these magical fluctuations were very different from usual, they were more violent, more unstable, like boiling water.
Tang Feng and Caterina lunged at him at the same time, trying to stop him from casting spells, but as soon as they touched the periphery of these magic fluctuations, they retracted their hands, and at the slightest touch of them, they felt that they were about to burn the energy contained in the fluctuations.
"It's too late. Xiao Chen said.
With his words, Zhang Hong could no longer control the magic in his hand, and the halo of teleportation magic lit up, but instead of sending his body into the spatial channel, it began to cut Zhang Hong's body like a blade.
The feeling of being cut from the inside out by countless tiny spatial cracks was even more painful than Ling Chi, Zhang Hong let out a desperate scream, and everyone in the room felt chills in their hearts when they heard it.
His body looked like a bag with numerous holes punctured, and blood splattered everywhere.
The screams continued for a full minute before Zhang Hong's voice became weaker, and at this time, the spatial ripples also became weaker, and Xiao Chen used his spiritual power to pull Zhang Hong out of that area.
Zhang Hong fell to the ground like a puddle of mud, his body was still oozing blood, but he had long lost his breath.
"This ...... Just dead?" Tang Feng touched Zhang Hong's carotid artery with his hand, and it was obvious that he didn't feel anything. He glanced back at Xiao Chen, "I thought you would teleport him out first, and then find a way to catch him." At least leave a living mouth...... Now, I'm afraid we're going to have some trouble. ”
"He brought on his own end. I gave him a chance, but he chose the current dead end, and he can only say that he is to blame. Xiao Chen said.
"I know, I know. It's just that I feel a little messy right now. Tang Feng glanced at the corpse on the ground and sighed, "I just think that it took so much evidence to collect and spend so much effort to prove that this person is the traitor we are looking for." And he died so easily, it was like a hard-fought game, but the opponent chose to abstain before the game, giving people a very angry feeling...... Forget it, let's see if there is any evidence left in his room. ”
