As if to confirm the prophecy, the day after Malken arrived in Deep Wells, another ShadowClan was assassinated.

The Shadow Assassins tasked with investigating the assassination were mad.

This is not the same as in the past, the first few times the ShadowClan was assassinated, it was a shame at home. Now, during the Dragon King's visit to Gruzere, two consecutive assassinations against the ShadowClan were so close to each other that it was simply humiliating the ShadowClan in front of the Dragon King.

The entire city of Deep Wells entered an iron curtain-like blockade, and the Shadow Assassins went from the shadows to the light, almost in a rage to search for suspicious people.

This caused some trouble for Luke's secret travel.

However, in order to get more clues, Luke quietly left the dragon's lair and went through the secret passage to find the human face servant Sisri.

The lack of manpower has made the Shadow Assassins' recruitment requirements much easier. Silky disguised herself as a swift lizard and successfully passed the test to become a member of the Shadow Assassins.

Then he was captured and joined in the search for the Assassins.

It's still the same stone castle, Luke confirms the secret message that Silk Lie left for him outside, and then opens the stone tablet and enters the stone castle.

"First of all, congratulations on joining the Shadow Assassins." Luke greeted the Swift Lizard with a smile when he saw the Swift Lizard exercising on the horizontal bar.

Silk Lane spun a few times on the horizontal bar, then spun gracefully in the air, and finally landed steadily.

The Swift Lizard took the form of a human woman, picked up the food on the table and gulped it down.

"Have you been tracked? The Shadow Assassins have recruited many Shadow Clans, all of whom have scattered throughout the Deep Well City to find the Assassin who preyed on the Shadow Clan. ”

Luke replied, "I shouldn't have been followed, I'm a professional." ”

"Human, don't be so confident, the ShadowClan is far more familiar with darkness than you are. If you're targeted by the Shadow Assassins, you'll be mistaken for the Assassin. ”

"I'll be careful. Found any useful messages? ”

Silk Lane was speechless at the masked human partner in front of her: "I really don't know where you got your confidence. I have a very low position now, and I don't have much access to information. It is only known that all the Shadow Clans who have been assassinated have almost no decent resistance.

The Assassins were highly skilled in hiding and assassination, and were able to kill their assassins with a single blow without alerting their targets.

This is a top-notch assassin who may need to be dealt with with by a Phantom Assassin. ”

Luke asked, "Have the brains of the assassinated ShadowClan been removed?" ”

"How do you know their brains have been removed? Yes, physical death is not the real death of the ShadowClan. Only by destroying the Shadow Parasite can the Shadow Clan be truly killed. The Shadowlings inhabit the spirit of the brain, and the Assassins removed the brain in order to kill the ShadowClan once and for all.

Damn fellows! ”

Although the assassinated ShadowClan had no relationship with Silkly, the killing of her kindred still caused her anger.

At this point, Luke asked, "Can you get a corpse for me to look at." ”

Silk Lane immediately shook her head: "What are you kidding!" All the dead Shadow Clan corpses, all under the close care of the Shadow Assassins, how could they be brought out! ”

"Can you get me in?"

"......" Silk Lane seriously considered Luke's new proposal, and then replied with some hesitation: "The corpses are all in the headquarters of the Shadow Assassins, and the suspicious elements captured are also imprisoned in the headquarters of the Shadow Assassins. I can escort you to the regimental headquarters under the pretense that you are suspicious, and then look for an opportunity to enter the morgue.

But the stakes are completely unpredictable, and if you get caught, I can't save you. ”

Luke replied, "If I am caught, I don't need you to save me." ”

"Good!" Silk Lane was also very happy, she took out her pocket watch and looked at the time: "In another three hours, the internal guards of the Shadow Assassin Regiment will have a handover, the Assassin Regiment was first established, and when this kind of thing happens, many rules have not been formulated, we can take advantage of the chaos to get in." ”

Luke also took out his pocket watch and looked at it: "We'll leave in three hours." ”

After Siri finished eating the food in her hand, her skin was turned over and over, and the microflora that made up her body broke down all the food she ingested. The replenishment of energy made Sisili's mental state change greatly, and she was a little excited.

"I have to burn off the excess energy and get the excited flora back to normal. You can do as much as you like with me, but don't disturb me with my workout, or I might hurt you. ”

Luke found a chair and sat down, and said, "I'll sit here, and it won't affect you." ”

"Let's go in three hours!"

After saying that, Sisri ignored Luke and jumped into the training ground on a backflip, accelerating the energy metabolism of the body's flora with high-intensity workouts, so that the overexcited flora could be calmed down.

Luke sat there, his eyes seemingly focused on Silky's training, and his consciousness was on the clear sky.

Clear Sky's experiment has already come to an eyebrow.

Genetic weapons against specific races, for Luke...... Not stranger.

The reproduction of a group may be the descendants of several ancestors, which causes the gene chain of this group to have fragments that are completely consistent and distinguish from other groups.

Weapons targeting this gene chain can accurately kill and injure this group.

The ShadowClan has an extremely fatal flaw.

It's that all the Shadow Parasites were split from the original Shadow Parasite of the Dark Great Chief.

Shadow parasites are psychic beings, each of which appears to be an individual, but the essence is identical.

If a spiritual "virus" can be developed against the Shadow Parasites, this "virus" can destroy the entire Shadow Clan.

According to the information that Luke has now, it is unbelievable that the ShadowClan has been assassinated many times. How could the Assassins succeed again and again when the ShadowClan already knew about their existence?

It's as easy as killing a chicken.

It can be said that the Assassins have forced the entire Shadow Clan to jump to their feet, and they don't even follow the Assassin Code, but there are still Shadow Clan assassins.

The Assassins were definitely not using regular means of assassination.

The assassination of Chief Romanchenko and her experience led Luke to a suspicion, which was confirmed by Clear Sky's investigation and experiments in the city of St. Lun.

In the Imperial Institute of Transcendent Biology, Clear Sky found the theoretical basis of the spiritual "virus" from the clues by reading the research materials of the Shadow Parasite Iterative Body. It's just that the follow-up materials are all in the lost materials.

What Clear Sky can do is to find as much information as possible and deduce whether the spiritual "virus" exists.

In the course of the experiment, the sheriff of the Shadow Parasite Iterative Body was constantly tormented by various mental invasions.

In a simulated experiment of a mental "virus", the sheriff had an extremely brief loss of contact with the spiritual body. According to the sheriff's account afterwards, at that moment he lost control of his body, as if he ...... Himself was stripped from the spirit body of the black cat.

There is no way for the shadow parasite to survive for a long time without the host's mental power, and the sheriff was frightened by the feeling at that moment, and no matter how much the sky coerces and lures, he will not participate in the experiment.

Clear Sky sorted out his experimental materials and passed them on to Luke.

The spiritual "virus" against the Shadow Parasite really exists, and although Clear Sky has not yet been able to make it, it does not mean that others have no way.

Is the assassination of the Shadow Clan in Deep Well City related to the spiritual "virus"?

During an exchange of consciousness with Clear Sky, Luke notices a person's name.

Dr. Friedrich Bruckner is a senior researcher at the Imperial Institute for Transcendent Biology, where he is responsible for the development of several transcendent biological weapons. Among them is the Shadow Parasite iteration, which has achieved a number of remarkable results.

It was only during the purge before Empress Christina's accession to the throne that Dr. Bruckner became one of the missing people. He and his family all disappeared overnight, along with many other materials from his research projects.

According to the graphic materials provided by the Imperial Transcendental Biology Research, combined with Chief Romanchenko's description of the appearance of the Lost, it is very likely that the Lost is the vanished Dr. Bruckner.

The truth seems to be being revealed, but it's all speculation.

So Luke wanted to see the other ShadowClan who had died, hoping to get some useful clues.

Luke read the message from the clear sky.

Silk Silk's non-stop workout.

Time flies.

As soon as the three hours were up, Luke regained consciousness and Silk Lane stopped training, looking at each other.

"It's time to go!" Luke stood up and held out his hands.

Silky didn't say anything to him, she took on the form of a swift lizard, and took out the forbidden rope to tie Luke's hands firmly.

Holding the other end of the rope in one hand, Silk Lane said, "Let's go, suspicious fellow! ”

Luke was dragged away from the Stone Fort by Silkli, towards the city where the Shadow Assassins were located.

Now Luke has adapted to the ever-changing direction of gravity in Deep Well City, accustomed to deflecting at any time. Instead, the panicked dungeon dwellers are sometimes frightened by the Shadow Assassins.

"ShadowClan assassinated!"

A shout was heard suddenly, and the shadow assassins who heard the sound immediately sped in the direction of the source of the sound, and scared the dungeon residents again.

Hearing that another Shadow Clan had been assassinated, Silk Lane paused, "The interval between the two assassinations was less than two days, did the assassins speed up the assassination?" ”

"It's not a good sign." Luke whispered from behind, "The other party's experiment should be at the end, and we haven't even found his tail."

Let's go......

At this time, the Shadow Assassin headquarters should be in chaos. ”

"Then follow me."

Silk Sly quickened her pace.

At this time, Deep Well City was full of rampaging shadow assassins. It stands to reason that Assassins should be patient, but the long period of finding nothing has worn them down. One assassination after another of the ShadowClan was right under their noses, enough to drive the Shadow Assassins mad.

Walking through the strange city, Silkri led Luke to the headquarters of the Shadow Assassins.

The headquarters of the Shadow Assassins is located near the center of the city, in a large hollowed-out rock.

The unexpected situation caused some of the Shadow Assassins to leave the regimental headquarters, and it was time for the guard handover, and a large unguarded area appeared in the Shadow Assassins' regimental headquarters.

Silk Lane escorted Luke into the Shadow Assassin Regiment, and walked through it without being questioned.

Luke couldn't help but sigh that thousands of years had made the Shadow Clan's armament almost completely abandoned. The Shadow Clan, like the Dragon Clan, bears the title of the five ancient civilizations, but the interior is already empty.

Silky and Luke are in a no-man's land.

They simply didn't go to the prison to act, and ran straight to the morgue.

The tightly guarded morgue that Silky was talking about, there was not a single guard inside or outside. In the middle of the morgue, the corpses of the dead ShadowClan were frozen and placed together.

Look at the appearance of the dead Shadowclan, almost all the major races in the dungeon of Gruzere. They died in the same way, with the fatal wound being a puncture through the chest, and the skull being opened to remove the brain.

"I need some time." Luke took out a knife and cut the rope on his wrist with his backhand, and then said to Silkly, "You go outside and watch the wind for me." If there is an emergency, you can give me a code and hide yourself. ”

"Listen to you." Silky looked around the morgue to make sure there were no hidden guards, then exited the door, and then turned into the guard.

Luke first chooses a caveman ShadowClan and uses magic to melt the ice that has been sealed.

The corpse had already been cut into eight pieces by the Shadow Assassins, and then stitched together and sealed. So when the ice melted, the corpses of the cave people were scattered into several large pieces. Luke didn't expect the ShadowClan to work so unprofessionally, and he was stunned for a moment before starting to assemble the scattered limbs.

He then recalls the process of autopsy that Malken taught him, and finally pulls out a scalpel and cuts open the caveman's chest.

The internal organs of the deceased, like the chief Romanchenko, did not react in any subtle way to the puncture with a sharp weapon. It can be concluded that the deceased lost control of his body before he was assassinated.

Therefore, so many assassinations do not require the strength of the assassin, and even the other party may be a lowly guy. It's no wonder that the Shadow Assassins couldn't find anything, and when they stared at the mountains, they couldn't see the small hills around them.

Luke then proceeded to examine the deceased's head.

Examination of a corpse, a corpse.

Eventually, Luke was able to find a piece of brain tissue that hadn't been cleaned.

But when Luke carefully removed the piece of brain tissue and put it in a preservation bag, a group of ShadowClan suddenly broke in.

"Who are you? What are you doing here? ”

Luke didn't expect to be barricaded in the morgue, and he saw Silk Lane in the ShadowClan. The man was dressed as a masked man and rushed in with him, even more furious than the other Shadowclans, as if he was about to pounce on the intruder.

It was Sisley telling Luke in body code: I warned you, why didn't you hear it!

It's me who is too focused!

Luke immediately put down his scalpel, raised his hands, and said to the ShadowClan who surrounded him, "I am the transcendent biotechnology advisor to His Majesty the King of the Dragon Kingdom. My name is Malken, a human, and I'm here to find clues to the assassination of the ShadowClan.

I ask that you refrain from any imposition on me, and that I be brought to the Gluttonous King at once, for I have made an important discovery to tell him! ”
