Death is the fate of all beings, even the bones of steel rust, and the skin of alloys decays.

The wheels of time roll by, and nothing lasts forever.

In exploring the path of life and death, some people choose an alternative kind of eternal life.

Shakespeare believed that life is short, but the virtues left behind can be passed on to future generations.

Kurtz felt that whoever could fill every moment with profound content was prolonging his life indefinitely.

Most of their discussions on eternal life and the continuation of life are based on the perspectives of soul, ideals, meaning, etc., and do not force anything.

However......

Some people want physical immortality.

For example, this somewhat sick manor owner, he gently carried the dark red infusion bag in his hand, and his eyes revealed greed and longing, like a medieval vampire, and his soul was distorted.

"You know, I'm almost seventy." He looked at the three of them, "But look at how young I am, how old do you think I am?"

"The soul is decayed, and flesh cannot live forever."

Su Xia looked indifferent, and commented without being salty.

Admittedly, the man in front of him looked to be in his early forties, and it was surprising to change somewhere else.

But Su Xia had seen that sixth-order pharmacist before, that old woman, who was also almost seventy years old, and her appearance was only about thirty or forty.

The old woman didn't do anything harmful, just recuperated properly, and maintained it for a long time by means of a pharmacist.

Firming the skin, reducing wrinkles, darkening the hair, and much more can be achieved with conventional methods.

"Your vision is too low to understand."

The man shook his head and sighed, as if in pity, and said to the three men, "If you could stand on my height, you would understand everything, but unfortunately, you are too young and too low."

"How tall are you?"

Ding Can glared angrily, clenched his fists, and strode forward, his entire chest seemed to be burning with anger, he had never been so angry.

Su Xia didn't stop him, just watched quietly.

It's good that young people are angry, it means they're not numb yet.

The world is too chaotic and depressing, and many people are just trying to survive, and they have long lost the courage to be angry.

"What are you going to do?" The man questioned.

"Bang!"

Ding Can swung his fist, with all his strength, and slammed his fist into the man's face.

That person has been pampered for a long time, how could he dodge Ding Can's fist, he was punched firmly, and with a bang, his whole face was almost deformed.

He was incredulous, covering his face in severe pain, taking a few steps backwards, and yelling at Ding Can, "Are you crazy? I know your father, what are you doing to me?"

Suddenly hit hard, he was not as easy as before.

Blood leaked from the corners of his mouth, half of his face immediately swollen, and he spit out a few broken teeth as he spoke, which showed the ferocity of Ding Can's punch.

However, Ding Can didn't reply to him, with anger on his face, and smashed another punch in his face.

"Bang!"

The strength of this punch did not decrease in the slightest, and it directly smashed the man to the ground.

"Stop!"

He endured the pain and shouted, raised his hand to signal Ding Can to stop, and at the same time sat on the ground and kept shrinking back.

The punch just now knocked out several of his teeth, and even one of his front teeth was lost, so that he was a little leaky when he spoke.

When you are old, your teeth are already unstable, how can you withstand such a devastation.

Ding Can still clenched his fingers, his fists like iron, glared at him angrily and shouted, "Aren't you very young? Why can't you even catch two punches? What about your youthful power? Why not fight back? Say!"

"You...... You ......."

The man shuddered lightly and shrank back desperately.

He hadn't suffered this kind of pain in many years, and two punches in quick succession were so painful that he couldn't bear the tears

Live out of the way.

It's just torture, how can it hurt so much?

"Stop, stop, listen to me, I have a lot of trade dealings with your father, if you don't believe me, go back and ask him." He raised his hand and hurriedly said, the dark red infusion bag in his hand was no longer stable and fell to the ground.

"What kind of trade?" Ding Can stepped forward and asked angrily.

"Yes, yes......"

The man's voice was unsteady, as if he was thinking something.

However, before he could say anything, Ding Can shouted, "If it is related to this matter, then I don't have a father like him in my life!"

"You, listen to me......

The man trembled, as if trying to justify something, but his other hand was already gripping the safe gun.

The next moment, his eyes showed a fierce light, and he suddenly raised his gun and aimed it at Ding Can.

Obviously, part of his cringe just now was pretended, just to make Ding Can careless.

In the next second, gunshots rang out in the room.

"Bang-"

The bullet spun out of the chamber, carrying a deadly threat, and headed straight for Ding Can.

At such a close distance, everything is in an instant.

There was already a cruel smile in this man's eyes, and the corners of his bloody mouth lifted slightly, looking a little distorted.

However, he was disappointed in the end.

"You still want to sneak up on me with this little ability?"

Ding Can shouted angrily, kicked out violently, and kicked the man's wrist holding the gun hard.

There was only a click, and the whole wrist was broken in response, and the bones were as fragile as glass, and they folded backwards in a strange posture close to ninety degrees.

The gun in his hand naturally became unstable, and it was kicked out, fell to the ground with a click, and slid into a corner not far away.

"Hiss......"

The severe pain hit, the person kept inhaling in pain, beads of sweat continued to appear on his forehead, his stomach and intestines were a little spasmodic under the severe pain, and the muscles in his body were also a little twitching.

The sneak attack failed, and even the only weapon he had was lost, and he had become a fish on the chopping board, to be slaughtered.

He endured intense pain and struggled to raise his head.

I saw that a layer of looming blue light flickered beside Ding Can, like a translucent cover, enveloping Ding Can and blocking the shot just now for him.

Psionic Shield, a universal skill that many psionic creatures share.

"You, listen to me, I really know your father, calm down......

His face was covered with sweat, he stretched out his only hand, his voice trembled, and said to Ding Can, "If you don't believe me, you can call your father now and confirm with him, and he will explain everything to you."

"And then?" Ding Can's anger did not decrease, and he stared straight at him.

"Then, then we'll sit down and talk."

The man barely managed to squeeze out a smile, half of his face was already swollen high, and his mouth was full of blood.

He continued, "Listen to me, you can sit down and talk about everything in this world, and the direct use of force is the lowest way to deal with it, and your father must have taught you."

"No, you're wrong."

"Trust me once, call your father......

"Shut up!" Ding Can shouted angrily, "He is him, I am me, I will not be the next him, what if you know him?"

Outside the window, thunder flickered, and suddenly there was a thunderstorm, boom, accompanied by Ding Can's angry shout, which frightened the man all over.

It was only at this moment that he understood that this matter was completely out of his control today.

In terms of force, he is not an opponent at all.

wanted to be emotional, but the other party didn't listen at all.

At this time, Su Xia stepped forward, slowly stepped on this person's left leg, and asked in a deep voice, "How many bases do you have in Seahorse City?"

The man shuddered, "I...... I can't say."

Click!

Su Xia slammed his force and directly stepped on his left leg.

The man didn't react until two seconds later before he let out a wail, it hurt so much that he could barely breathe.

The bones of the entire leg were broken, and only a little skin was left attached, which looked very oozing.

Then, Su Xia stepped on the man's right leg and asked the same question, "How many bases do you have in Seahorse City?"

"Shhh...... Wait a minute, wait a minute, let me think about it first......

The man convulsed in pain and begged for mercy.

Susha allowed, "You have fifteen seconds to think."

Torture this person, Su Xia did not have the slightest psychological pressure.

The anger in his heart was actually no less than Ding Can, because he knew more than Ding Can.

The manor looked weird not only because of the dark red paint, but also because of something else—the skin of the sofa, the lampshade of the lamp, the leather shoes on the floor, and even the canvas of the oil paintings on the walls......

These things, all made from human skin.

After entering this room, various descriptions and prompts popped up in front of Su Xia's eyes, and lines of dark red words woke up shockingly.

In the past, most of the prompt text in the system was gold or white, but this time it turned dark red, as if it was dyed red by blood.

The process was brutal, horrific, bloody and desperate, and hard to forget.

But the owner of the manor in front of him liked it very much, because those were the skin of a young man, and when he touched it, he seemed to be able to smell the breath of life that belonged to young people.

"Fifteen seconds have come." Su Xia tried his best to calm down, he needed to be calmer than Ding Can, so that he could get the specific clues needed for the mission.

He stepped on the man's right leg and slowly exerted his strength.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute!" The man panicked and shouted, "Three, only three bases."

"Where is it?"

"Safe deposit box...... There is a picture in the safe......

The man pointed to the TV cabinet in the living room, his fingers trembling.

Su Xia walked over and opened the bottom drawer of the TV cabinet, and according to the man, found a small safe in the mezzanine deep in the drawer.

This safe is not as big as an ordinary red brick, but it is not lightweight, and the shell is very thick.

Based on the man's password, Susha opened it.

The inside of the safe is about the size of an egg, and several folded drawings are stored inside.

【How many drawings have you found】

[You decide to review the drawings and follow the instructions of the drawings to take the next step]

The task pops up a prompt, it should be that these drawings are correct.

The process was simpler than Susha had imagined.

He had long sensed the existence of this safe, but he was worried that the contents of the safe were not what he wanted, and there were dozens of large and small safes in this mountain villa.

Therefore, he was too lazy to waste time, and directly chose to torture the owner of the manor.

"Let's take a look."

Su Xia unfolded these drawings.

On the drawings, the location of each base is marked in detail, and even the defense index, establishment time, and specific structure of the base are written in detail.

At the same time, by torturing the owner of the manor, it can be learned that there are more than 1,000 people who have been kidnapped alive in the three bases.

But, more information, he doesn't know.

"That Left Eye Security Group, based on another continent, I only know one of their contacts here." He hurriedly defended himself, hoping to get out of the way.

"Tell me more." Susha looked at him.

"That man's name is Andrew, from another continent, blonde hair and blue eyes, he often comes to our Middle-earth continent to do business, I met him more than ten years ago, and I learned from him about the existence of these things......

In order to avoid more pain, the owner of the manor explained in detail.

He was just a buyer in the lower reaches of the chain, and he only knew the guy named Andrew.

Before he said this

After giving a name, several prompts popped up in front of Su Xia's eyes.

[This man named "Andrew" seems to be deeply involved, and you decide to go to him to get more clues]

【Quest Updated】

[Quest requirements for the current stage 1: Destroy the three bases in Seahorse City and rescue at least 50% of the kidnapped people]

[Current Stage Quest Requirement 2: Go to Conch City, find and control Andrew]

[Current Reward: New Psionic Filter x1; Anti-stance device x1】

[The mission map has been updated, you can click to view]

【……】

The requirements of this mission were quite lenient, and Su Xia was only required to rescue 50% of the people.

In the past, it was almost more than 90%.

The mission was constantly changing, perhaps sensing the tension throughout the city, and relaxing the requirements for Susha.

The second request, Conch City, happened to be the destination of Su Xia's trip, where he needed to obtain the fresh venom glands of a special sea creature in order to refine the "Dream Ecstasy" potion.

Su Xia briefly glanced at the updated map, and then continued to interrogate the owner of the manor, "What else do you know?"

"I...... I've really finished it......

The man's voice trembled, his breath was unsteady, he was so painful that he didn't dare to move, and every breath could involve the pain of his body.

Su Xia stepped on his right leg with a little force, and continued to interrogate, "I'll ask again, what else do you know?"

"I really don't know......

The man was about to cry, and said in a panic, "That Andrew only told me this, and I rarely see him."

"Really?"

Su Xia used some more force.

The man hurriedly shouted, "Wait, wait, Andrew is not only in the business of "people", but also in the business of weapons."

"Elaborate."

"Yes, yes...... There is a big port in Conch City, and once I went with Andrew to pick up the goods, which were some containers...... When the container is opened, the surface is full of frozen fish and other seafood, and the lower layers are the real thing, some boxes with weapon logos printed on them......

"Well, weapons shipments, it's normal, this news is worthless."

Su Xia didn't think it was strange, in the territory of the mechanical clan, the human race wanted to get some weapons, so they could only do it secretly.

He wanted to know information about the Left Eye Security Group and was not interested in the sale of weapons.

But what this man said next caught Su Xia's attention.

"Andrew said that those weapons are very useful and can cause a storm in the southwest of the continent."

"Storm?"

Su Xia frowned and pondered, this can't be said casually.

"What storm does he want to set off?"

"I, I don't know, I just asked a few casual questions, and he said that those weapon boxes were going to be sent to the mountains in the southwest......

"Any other news?"

"It's gone, it's really gone."

The man shook his head, his face was full of bitterness, and the corners of his mouth were still bleeding.

That's really all he knows, and that Andrew is mysterious.

"The Great Mountains of the Southwest." Su Xia groaned, there are many human resistance groups hiding in the southwest mountains.

The biggest one, naturally, is Dragon City.

Recently, the interior of Dragon City has been very unpeaceful, and rumors have spread everywhere, and it is very chaotic.

Many people are rumored that the two forces of the Academy and the Academy may want to overthrow the Lord of Dragon City.

But the last time they met, the old dean personally denied this to Su Xia, and they suspected that there might be external forces involved in the spread of those rumors.

There are people outside who want to defeat Dragon City from the inside, so that Dragon City will not attack itself, so as to achieve the goal of controlling the entire Dragon City.

Today, this unexpected news made Su Xia have to think more.
