Chapter 119: Showdown
Ruan Zhou was undoubtedly the most formidable enemy Lin Lichuan had encountered so far.
Even though he has the upper hand in the battle with the help of the Ice Wheel Pill, it is not possible to kill the opponent in a short time.
But Ruan Zhou had the idea of running away.
The moment he turned to flee, his fate was already sealed.
The cold light pierced the night like lightning, and it only reached the back of Ruan Zhou in an instant.
Another small cobra roared and rushed out, biting the spear, but the sharp blade went straight through the mouth, stabbed into the back of Ruan Zhou's heart with a snort, and pierced through the front chest.
Ruan Zhou's galloping figure suddenly stopped, a look of shock and disbelief appeared on his face, he looked down at his chest, and found that there was already a bloody wound at the left heart, and the tip of the blade that pierced the heart was gone.
"Good...... Hurry up ......"
Before such a thought could come to mind, endless darkness poured over his consciousness like a tidal wave.
More than twenty meters away, the spear retracted, followed by a second stab, stabbing into the neck of a member of the secret service who was about to turn around and run away not far away, and as Lin Lichuan waved his arm horizontally, a huge head suddenly rose into the sky.
The spear, on the other hand, swept through the void like a whip, slashing through a tree without hindrance like a hot knife cutting through butter, and fiercely 'pumping' the last remaining member of the secret service department, directly beheading it.
It wasn't until the two corpses fell to the ground one after another that the trees that had been slashed by the spear slowly slipped and collapsed along the sword marks, and there was a sudden explosion, and smoke and dust were everywhere.
Lin Lichuan breathed a sigh of relief, lifted the first solution, and turned around to see Meng Xiaotong and the others looking at him like monsters.
There was silence.
Seeing Lin Lichuan's gaze, Lin Zhenyi opened his mouth, but suddenly found that he didn't know what to say or where to start.
On the contrary, Meng Xiaotong looked at the captain, then at Lin Lichuan, and said tentatively: "Why don't we go back first?"
The enemies who planned this attack had all been ambushed, and there was no threat hanging overhead, so they naturally didn't need to flee from Linyang City again, and they didn't hesitate much when they heard this, so they nodded in unison.
Except for Lin Lichuan, everyone present was more or less injured, even Lin Zhenyi, whose injuries had been healed, were also a little weak because of excessive blood loss, but fortunately, they were only minor injuries that did not matter, and there was no need for Lin Lichuan to use the pill again.
On the contrary, the commercial vehicle that I was riding in at the beginning was protected by Meng Xiaotong's ability at the first time it was attacked, so it was not damaged much, only two doors were destroyed.
Everyone got into the car, and Liu Dong still drove towards the city.
On the way, Meng Xiaotong made a phone call, seemingly contacting the Major Connor mentioned earlier.
The two talked for a while, and after putting down the phone, Meng Xiaotong turned to Lin Zhenyi and said, "The situation in the city has stabilized, most of the attackers have been killed, and the remaining remnants are also searching and wanted with all their might." ”
Lin Zhenyi nodded, thought for a while, and said, "We are also joining the search operation, we must catch the remnants of the party and force them to find out their arrangements in the Baiguan Province!"
"Leave this matter to us, Captain, you haven't fully recovered from your injuries, so rest well for the next two days, and we'll definitely catch the rest of the rats." Cheng Chun said.
Meng Xiaotong and Liu Dong bowed their heads in agreement, but their eyes drifted to Lin Lichuan, who was speechless, intentionally or unintentionally.
In fact, the three of them all knew that Lin Zhenyi must have a lot to talk to Lin Lichuan after this, and it was estimated that he had no time to participate in the search operation, so he took the job so that he could give the aunt and nephew a little time.
This can be regarded as a kind of overture to Lin Lichuan.
After all, not to mention his gold-level strength, just tonight, if he hadn't made a move, he and the others would probably have died.
originally wanted to protect Lin Lichuan, but he turned around and was saved by the protected object, and I have to say that tonight's experience was extremely wonderful.
Everyone's thoughts were in turmoil, and no one spoke out for a while.
Nothing to say all the way.
It wasn't until they arrived at the gate of the community and said goodbye to Meng Xiaotong and others that Lin Lichuan and Lin Zhenyi returned home, and the atmosphere became a little awkward.
Lin Lichuan broke the silence first.
"If there's anything you want to ask, auntie. ”
As early as when he decided to make a move, he was already mentally prepared, and even figured out how to explain the source of his power.
However, unexpectedly, Lin Zhenyi shook his head lightly and said, "I don't have anything to ask." ”
Lin Lichuan was slightly stunned when he heard this: "You...... Not curious?"
Lin Zhenyi glanced at him and said softly, "The reason why you didn't tell me about you being a transcendent is because you can't explain the source of your power?"
“...... It's partly because of this. ”
"In that case, I won't ask any more. Lin Zhenyi shook his head, looked at Lin Lichuan, who was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but show a smile on his face, "What, do you think I'll ask to the end?"
Lin Lichuan was speechless for a while.
Seeing this, a touch of tenderness flashed in Lin Zhenyi's eyes, and he said softly: "You are my only relative in this world, with great extraordinary power, I will only be happy for you, as for the source of power, these are not important to me, I will not ask." ”
After a pause, she added with a serious look, "Of course, you have to make sure that you can control this power well and avoid hurting yourself. ”
"I see. Lin Lichuan nodded, feeling a slight warmth in his heart.
Lin Zhenyi chuckled and continued, "In fact, even if you don't master the supernatural power, I am ready to wait until you graduate from the Royal Military Academy, and then find a way to get an awakening potion to help you awaken your abilities and become a supernatural." ”
"Awakening Elixir?" Lin Lichuan's eyes flashed with curiosity.
"It is a precious elixir that has a high probability of awakening after taking it, and only continental powers such as the Tania Empire and the Thousand Courtyards Business Alliance have the corresponding manufacturing technology. ”
Speaking of this, Lin Zhenyi seemed to suddenly think of something and asked, "So, you actually already know that I am a member of Night Song?"
"I only found out by chance. ”
Lin Lichuan described the fact that the secret service sent someone to kidnap him, of course, the portable prosthetic remains were not mentioned.
"So, you also know that Night Song is a transcendent force secretly cultivated by the Empire in the White Crown Federation?"
"That's right, Meng Xiaotong told me. ”
After hearing this, Lin Zhenyi hesitated, sighed lightly, and said slowly: "Originally, I wanted to wait for you to graduate from college before telling you, but now that you have become an extraordinary person and even reached the gold level, it is time for you to know these things." ”
Hearing this, Lin Lichuan couldn't help but show a curious look, but he didn't ask out loud, just listened intently.
"Sit down. ”
Lin Zhenyi motioned for Lin Lichuan to sit down on the sofa, silently for a few seconds, as if organizing the language, and then asked:
"Do you remember how your parents died?"
"It was because of a car accident. Lin Lichuan searched his memory and asked thoughtfully, "Isn't the real reason this?"
Lin Zhenyi said: "It's true that it's not because of a car accident, in fact, my brother and sister-in-law were killed by strange beasts." ”
"Strange beast?" Lin Lichuan was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect this reason.
"I think you should have guessed that my brother and sister-in-law are actually agents of the Empire, and together with other transcendents, they were assigned by the Empire's top leaders to lurk in the White Crown Federation more than ten years ago, and are responsible for forming a transcendent force, that is, Night Song. ”
"And I only joined the night song five years ago. ”
"Not long after I joined, a meteorite landed in the territory of the White Crown Federation. ”
Speaking of this, Lin Zhenyi looked at Lin Lichuan, who immediately understood what she meant, and nodded: "I probably know something about meteorites and strange beasts. ”
Hearing this, Lin Zhenyi continued: "In fact, five years ago, the frequency of meteorites was very rare, and it basically only appeared once in two or three years in the White Crown Federation. ”
"After receiving the information about the appearance of the meteorite, the organization immediately sent people to investigate, and my brother and sister-in-law were among the investigators, and then they encountered the strange beast. ”
"In that operation, the organization's scouts were wiped out. ”
Lin Zhenyi showed a sad look on his face, but he quickly regained his composure and continued:
"And that was the first time that the alien beast appeared in the southern region of the continent. ”
"Aren't there any alien beasts in the meteorites before?" Lin Lichuan asked curiously.
"Nope. Lin Zhenyi shook his head and muttered, "To be more precise, in the thousands of years since that catastrophe, the alien beast has not appeared again. ”
"Millennia ago...... Could it be a star disaster incident?" Lin Lichuan was stunned, and after reacting to what Lin Zhenyi meant, his expression suddenly moved.
A star-cataclysmic event is a huge catastrophe that occurred thousands of years ago.
He remembered seeing it in some history books, and the teacher in the school's history class told about it.
It is said that a thousand years ago, there was a serious beast plague, and the overwhelming strange beasts suddenly appeared out of nowhere, frantically swarming to various countries and cities like locusts, slaughtering all the humans they met, and the blood flowed everywhere they passed, and the corpses were all over the field, causing extremely heavy casualties.
At that time, all the countries on the continent had to put aside their contradictions, unite and unite, dispatch countless troops, and it took several years to finally extinguish the beast plague.
Despite this, there are still many weak countries that have perished in this beast plague, and the countries that have survived have also suffered from their vitality, and it took many years to recover.
Later generations called that disaster a star plague.
Lin Lichuan didn't understand why he called it a star plague before, and there was no explanation for it in the books, until this time he suddenly realized.
It turned out that those strange beasts that appeared suddenly were strange beasts, and the strange beasts landed on the continent with meteorites.
It is conceivable that at that time thousands of years ago, many meteorites must have descended from the sky, bringing a tragic catastrophe. Diagram of the Avenue of the Heavens
