Li Changan rushed back to the Tranquility Society.

At this time, in the conference room of the Tranquility Society, Ran Swordfish, Teng Hongrui, and Bai Zhu were all waiting for him.

Moreover, the caracal wolf, the brute force orangutan, and even the hanging bamboo are all on standby.

"How?"

Seeing the three of them, Li Changan couldn't help asking.

"Lao He followed behind, and after determining the location, we rushed over as soon as possible, just in time." Ran Swordfish said calmly.

"Is it really him?"

Li Changan walked up to the three of them, his face was a little solemn, and he asked in a deep voice.

"Yes."

Ran Jianyu glanced at him, and there were some waves in his calm eyes.

"I said a long time ago, this guy is definitely not a good thing, I didn't expect it to be him!"

Bai Zhu clenched his fists and gritted his silver teeth and said angrily.

Who?

Deacon of the Quiet Society, Zou Ping!

Originally, although several people didn't have much interest in Zou Ping, they didn't suspect him.

In any case, Zou Ping was a deacon of the Tranquility Society, and theoretically his status within the Tranquility Society was above them.

Even if Lao Cao finally reminded them that someone was brewing something in Yangcheng, they didn't really suspect Zou Ping.

Even if.

On the day the "Wriggling Tentacles" were brought back, Zou Ping's behavior was a little strange.

What really made them try to suspect Zou Ping was that in the follow-up events of "Wriggling Tentacles", due to the lack of manpower, Ran Swordfish applied to the headquarters to recruit members of the Tranquility Society from the cities around Yangcheng to assist.

But.

By the time the "Creep Tentacles" case was completely over, there was no feedback from the headquarters and the surrounding Tranquility Society branches.

At this time, Li Changan and Ran Swordfish really began to suspect Zou Ping.

Because, as an expatriate deacon, he is the one in charge of contacting the headquarters.

He is also fully capable of blocking all the information halfway.

Even if he was asked, as long as he pushed it all away afterwards and couldn't say it clearly, no one could do anything with him.

However, that is only a suspicion.

So Li Changan and Ran Swordfish decided to make a bold attempt.

By pretending to be unintentional, Ran Swordfish informed Zou Ping that she had found a way to completely solve the "wriggling tentacles" and could make them into a controllable spirit beast tool.

At first, Zou Ping didn't believe it.

Until Ran Swordfish said that she knew a craftsman nicknamed "Ray".

Hearing his exact name and message, Zou Ping was finally a little moved.

Needless to say, after he leaves, he will definitely investigate whether there is a craftsman nicknamed "Ray".

And this information is not a secret in some unsightly channels in Yangcheng.

So, Zou Ping couldn't hold back and acted.

He secretly stole the "wriggling tentacles" under the noses of the quiet congregation.

It's so impatient.

It's so flawed again.

"Something?"

Ran Swordfish stretched out her hand, and a quiet, sealed tentacle was in her hand.

They made a false tentacle, because there was a seal, and without breaking the seal, it was not possible to make an effective distinction.

Moreover, they were also sure that before Zou Ping went to where he wanted to go and did what he wanted to do, he would never break the seal on the false tentacle. ….

It was precisely because this thing was in their hands that Ran Swordfish was not in a hurry to hunt down Zou Ping.

Take 10,000 steps back, even if they don't chase them, they will definitely come back when Zou Ping finds out about the situation.

"One more question."

Li Changan's gaze swept over the few people present, and finally stopped on Ran Swordfish's body.

She seemed to understand what Li Changan wanted to ask, and replied directly:

"Yes, Third Order Spirit Master."

After a pause, he added:

"Moreover, his spirit beast strength should be above the restricted level."

Above the restrictive level, that is the danger level......

That's where the real trouble lies.

Even if Zou Ping is determined, can their group of people deal with him, can they take him down?

At that time, when Ran Jianyu and Li Changan laid out the plan, Li Changan raised this doubt.

However, Ran Swordfish told him not to worry.

The premise of all plans was based on the premise that they could deal with Zou Ping.

But now......

Ran Swordfish's apricot eyes flickered slightly, and he turned his head and walked towards the door, and at the same time, a voice came.

"Actually, you're all curious about one thing.....

Walking out of the conference room with the caracal wolf, several people followed her, not knowing what she wanted to do.

I saw him holding on to the railing of the spiral staircase, walking towards the basement step by step, and at the same time a faint voice came.

"Where's the captain?"

Captain?

Hearing this, not only Li Changan, Teng Hongrui and Bai Zhu were stunned.

It's been a long time since they've seen the captain.

I'm almost forgetting that he exists.

Could it be said.

The captain is still there?!

Captain Wang Zhengwei ..... Li Changan's eyes shrank, and there seemed to be a lightning bolt in his mind, all the haze was dispelled, and the darkness was illuminated.

Moving his lips, he asked tentatively:

"Thorn Cage?"

"Thorn Cage?!"

Bai Zhu and Teng Hongrui repeated Li Changan's words, and then their eyes widened.

Ran Swordfish didn't give an answer, just turned his head slightly, and looked at him deeply with deep eyes.

Under her leadership, several people came to the basement and stopped in front of the thorny cage that was sometimes *** and couldn't see the real internal situation.

It seems that some difficult decision has been made.

The thin lips twitched slightly.

"Thorns."

The next second.

The sturdy thorn cage moved, and the black metal fence slowly wriggled as the cage gradually opened.

Meantime.

The hazy fog that obscured the view slowly dissipated as the fence disappeared.

Subsequently, Li Changan and the three of them saw the existence of the real prisoners.

A middle-aged man with a thin body, shirtless upper body, closed eyes, and a frown.

Tentatively.

Call them men.

Because, judging from the left, he is indeed a calm middle-aged man with a resolute face and no smiles.

But if you look at it from the right.......

Covered in black, diamond-shaped, densely packed scales, the right side of his body almost completely covered.

From the top of the forehead to the shoulder blades to the ends of the ribs, it is all densely covered with scales!

Moreover, these scales still shimmered, wriggled, and twisted strands of dark red lines as thin as hair, as if they were alive and parasitic on them. ….

On the inside of the scaly arm, there are round suction cups of different sizes, which look like .......

Octopus's tentacles!

The man's eyelids trembled slightly, and after trembling slightly, he opened his eyes.

As his eyes opened, the scales on his body seemed to come to life, twisting and wriggling.

Little by little, little by little, it erodes the man's body.

He turned his head slightly.

Li Changan saw his eyes.

On the left, there are gray eyes, as if full of depth and wisdom.

On the right, it is like an emotionless scarlet ball, tyrannical, ferocious, and chaotic

Thereinto.

His gaze stayed on Ran Swordfish's body for a while, and then swept over everyone.

"Hmm!!"

Bai Zhu covered his mouth violently, his eyes turned red instantly, and his body trembled.

I don't know if it's because of fright, or because of excitement, maybe both.

"Team, captain?!"

Teng Hongrui's face at this moment was also full of surprise and fear, and he stumbled and shouted.

Man, it is the battle of Yangcheng Tranquility Society, Wang Zhengwei!

"Hong Rui."

The man spoke suddenly, his tone was calm, and a calm smile appeared on his face.

A smile when he doesn't look at the left side of his face, of course.

"I'm getting fat again."

Wang Zhengwei's tone is like when he usually goes home for the New Year, and when his relatives see it, he has a bit of ridicule and a bit of concern.

After speaking, he looked at Li Changan.

Locked by that sight, Li Changan's body stiffened suddenly, and goosebumps stood up instantly.

The little phantom lying on his shoulder bared his teeth and stared at him vigilantly, ready to do it at any time.

"He is Li Changan, who has great potential and ability." Ran Swordfish explained aloud.

Wang Zhengwei nodded, the smile on his face was even worse, and he said in a low voice:

"It turns out that you are Li Changan. Okay......"

In the end, Wang Zhengwei looked at Ran Jianyu, and a trace of guilt appeared in his calm eyes, but it turned into relief.

"It's been a hard time for you."

Ran Swordfish pursed his lips, blinked vigorously, and said in a slightly hoarse voice:

"Still can't help you."

Wang Zhengwei couldn't help but shake his head and said dumbly:

"I'm dragging you down."

After speaking, he looked at the hazy white mist around him that had not completely dissipated, and hammered his shoulder.

"Not anymore."

After hesitating for a moment, Ran Swordfish stretched out his hand and spread his palm.

The next second.

The white mist, like water vapor, was like a hundred birds returning to their nests, quickly converging towards her palm.

Soon, these fogs condensed together and rapidly expanded and became larger.

A silhouette, gradually emerging.

When all the fog is completely gathered together.

Presented in front of Li Changan and the others was a soldier wearing heavy white armor and holding a shiny sword.

Spirit beast?!

Li Changan was stunned.

"Mist Swordsman?"

[Name]: Mist Swordsman

Attribute: Element

[Race Potential]: Restricted Grade

[Racial Skills]: Mist Elemental, Warcry, Mist Spear......

[Strength]: Unknown

[Introduction]: An elemental spirit beast evolved from the mist elves, which has a humanoid appearance, but is actually completely condensed by the mist, inhabiting the depths of the vast forest, when stepping into the mist, you need to be careful of its existence. ….

After flashing the basic information of the Misty Swordsman in his mind, Li Changan looked at the caracal wolf beside Ran Swordfish again.

Two spirit beasts.

So...... Ran Swordfish is actually a third-order spirit master?!

But in this way, it makes sense, why Ran Jianyu can become the vice captain, why when facing the pale Zhao Shuihong, he is not half timid and even dares to call him a taboo name, and in the face of Zou Ping, he can calmly reject his proposal.

Because she was already a third-order spirit master.

At the same time, it also made Li Changan figure out a previous doubt.

The thorn cage is not strong, but it can hold a "spirit beast" that requires at least two spirit beasts to work together to pacify it, which is very unreasonable.

Unless, being the one who exists inside, is voluntarily imprisoned.

Or, in other words, what restricts what exists inside is not the thorny cage of knowledge.

Now, everything makes sense.

Wang Zhengwei was voluntarily imprisoned, and there was also Ran Swordfish's misty swordsman restrictions.

When the fog lifted, Wang Zhengwei stood up tremblingly with his knees propped up.

Twist your neck and make a "click" sound.

"That incident caused you to break a contract, and you had to spend the Mist Swordsman on me." Wang Zhengwei said with a sigh, "But you still keep the entire Jinghui branch in order."

Broke a contract?

Several people looked at Ran Swordfish.

In the eyes of the fat man and Bai Zhu, a hint of abruptness appeared.

Obviously, some of the doubts in their minds have been answered.

Is it organized?

Ran Jianyu thought of Lao Cao and Sun Yu, revealing a little bitterness.

"So, your plan succeeded, is it really Zou Ping?" Wang Zhengwei asked.

Looking at the tone, it seems that Ran Swordfish has communicated with him in advance.

Ran Swordfish nodded slightly.

"Old He is following."

"This kid has a lot of ideas, and I was worried about it before, he is easy to lose control of his desires and take a path that he shouldn't take." Wang Zhengwei sighed slightly.

But he quickly raised his head again, grinned half gently, half hideously.

"Okay, let me do the last mission."

Gollum –

As he spoke, the scales on Wang Zhengwei's body squirmed again.

It looks a little scary.

These scales are constantly devouring his body.

His body is irreversibly unbalanced.

Because Ran Swordfish removed the Mist Swordsman, his deterioration was even faster.

Wang Zhengwei has long understood his physical state.

But he finally wanted to do something for the sake of Tranquility.

This time, it was his own decision.

"Let's go to the equipment room and prepare the utensils."

"Yes!"
