[Chapter 21]: Lightsaber

The Oni have the talent to learn from the blood memories of the dead.

After the projection, Lu Xun also inherited this skill and obtained a special skill with a similar effect.

This is different from the technology of memory extraction, which belongs to "metaphysics", which can pass through the nine ghosts.

As soon as it was activated at this moment, his consciousness seemed to be "sucked" into an unknown place.

……

Airplanes~

The engine roared, and the scenery outside the window flew by.

Lu Xun was on top of a plane, which was the previous flight from Jinghai City to the elven clan.

Is this the memory world of the old octopus? ’

He thought to himself, and after looking around, his eyes quickly locked on to the target.

By the porthole, the old octopus was sitting on a seat, looking out the window at the clouds in a daze.

Lu Xun walked over, stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, but the other party didn't notice it.

Not only him, but also the thousands of passengers on the plane did not notice Lu Xun.

He is a spectator, watching a "video" and freely manipulating the progress of the video.

Lu Xun directly chose "fast forward".

Airplanes~

In an instant, the changes in the surrounding things seemed to have doubled the speed, which was very ghostly.

Until a radio announcement suddenly sounded on the plane -

"Ladies and gentlemen. I have just received a notice from the captain that due to the sudden illness of a passenger, the condition is serious and needs to be urgently evacuated, and the plane will return to the airport immediately. We apologize for the inconvenience......"

All the passengers had stunned looks on their faces.

Lu Xun couldn't help but be stunned.

Then he smiled wryly, not knowing what to say.

I finally know how the old octopus came back.

Because the plane is back!

Maybe this is providence?

Lu Xun sighed and turned his head to look at the old octopus.

The other party was obviously stunned, and did not expect such an accident to happen.

But that's not right, even if the plane returns, it will soon take off again, and the old octopus only needs to wait in the waiting room, so why do you have to go home? ’

Thinking of this, Lu Xun fast-forwarded again and dragged the progress bar of the memory video back.

Until the plane landed at the North Gate Airport of Jinghai City.

This is the memory world of the old octopus, so Lu Xun's actions cannot go beyond his field of vision.

He followed the old octopus back to the waiting room from the exit passage.

A few minutes later, the old octopus received a notification that the plane would take off again in an hour.

The old man couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Suddenly, he subconsciously touched his chest, and then his face changed, and he stood up suddenly.

He hurriedly groped all over his body, as if looking for something, and his expression became more and more anxious.

"I see......" Lu Xun couldn't help but hold his forehead, he had already expected what would happen later.

The old octopus is looking for his pendant!

That pendant has been with him for more than thirty years, and he is very precious.

Now it's gone.

Where did it go?

Lu Xun remembered that when he burned the slaughterhouse before, the old octopus accidentally threw the pendant along with the protective suit.

When he retrieved it, he wiped the pendant clean of gasoline and stuffed it into the pocket of his jacket.

But now, his clothes have changed!

Maybe you were in a hurry to pack your luggage, catch a flight and run away, and when you changed your clothes, you forgot the pendant in your pocket......

Leave it at home!

"Damn, you can lose something so precious twice in a row? If you are too frivolous and careless, it is no wonder that your license will be revoked because of medical malpractice, not just wronged! Lose three and four, and don't change your dead nature! Lu Xun couldn't help complaining.

The old octopus seemed to have remembered it, and his face became very exciting, both worried and hesitant, and he was struggling in his heart.

“… It took off again in 57 minutes, and it was still too late..."

"The masked man said that for two days, we ran away immediately after the operation, and our identities could not be revealed so quickly..."

“… There is a high probability that nothing will happen when you go home. ”

He muttered to himself for a moment, then dragged his suitcase and quickly left the departure lounge and headed out of the airport.

It's normal for anyone to think that way.

Even Lu Xun himself thought that the enemy's movements would not be so fast, and there was still plenty of time.

Who would have expected that it would take the enemy only two or three hours to find out about the black clinic?

Could it be that there was a fire in the slaughterhouse that attracted attention in advance?

All in all, the failure of the plan to keep up with the changes led to this tragedy.

……

Detached small building.

The old octopus returned home with an anxious face, rushed to the third floor in one go, and entered the bedroom.

Soon, he dug through an old coat in his closet and pulled a pendant out of his pocket.

"Whew~"

His old face was beaming with joy, and he pressed the pendant to his chest with great pity, breathing a sigh of relief.

However, at this time, there was an unfamiliar footstep in my ears.

A tall man in black and a combat robot walked into the room one after the other.

"Tsk, what a surprise!"

The man in black walked over and joked: "I thought the prey had escaped, and I was about to go home, but I didn't expect you to come back again!" Hahaha, that's interesting. ”

His appearance is highly recognizable: the left half of his face is a dark silver metal structure, his eyes are mechanical eyes with red glow, and his neck and collarbone are also prosthetic.

This situation made the old octopus terrified.

After only a few sneering sounds, the six mechanical arms behind him tore through his clothes, swinging in the air like tentacles, and making a defensive stance.

"You should know why I'm looking for you, you picked up a guest you shouldn't have."

The mechanical-faced man completely ignored the old octopus's self-defense.

He was arrogant, and his tone was full of disdain:

"A mere lowly ant dares to interfere in our actions, I really don't know whether to live or die!"

The look on the old octopus's face, from the initial fright, gradually became calm.

He seemed to know the outcome he was about to face, so he simply shook his head and said in a deep voice, "I won't say anything." ”

"It's okay, I didn't want to interrogate you." The other party sneered, "You only need to contribute a part of your brain." ”

"Then we have to see if you have the ability!"

The old octopus roared angrily, and six robotic arms roared out like dragons.

Seeing this, the man in black flipped his wrist, and a metal grip appeared in his palm.

Click!

He triggered a switch, and a green laser blade suddenly extended from the tip of the grip!

The man in black wields a lightsaber at will, and sparks shoot in the air!

Snort!

In a series of shocking sounds, he cut off all six mechanical arms of the old octopus in three or two clicks like a steel knife cutting cream!

The fracture is neat, and the alloy on the edge is melted into red molten iron by the high temperature, which drips on the floor and makes a "zizi" sound.

Lu Xun on the side looked straight in his eyes!

This is no ordinary laser.

The lightsaber is a plasma with strong magnetic confinement!

It is a military-grade high-tech melee weapon, which is even more rare than a prosthetic of the same level.

He had only seen lightsaber displays in military programs and military parades in Jinghai City before.

But now, the real thing is right now!

Who is behind this? You can even get your hands on a lightsaber?

After only one second of fighting, the old octopus lost all its tentacles.

The next moment, the lightsaber pierced his heart, scorching a bloody hole in front and back.

The old octopus collapsed in a pool of blood.

The other party killed him very mercilessly like killing a chicken.

He didn't have to die, but he lost his life for an ordinary pendant.

The last vote before washing the hands of the golden basin, planted.

He worked hard to save 60 million dollars.

Now that the money has not been spent, the man is dead.

But to Lu Xun's surprise, before he died, the old octopus did not have the slightest fear or remorse on his face.

The blood-stained pendant fell in front of his face, and the lid opened, revealing the picture inside.

He looked at the little boy in the photo, and his eyes showed complex emotions such as relief and relief.

In addition, there is a hint of apology.

Lu Xun guessed that this apology was for him.

Because the old octopus also knew that he had dragged his "apprentice" into the water.
