There was a deathly silence in the church, and everyone was stunned by such a turn of events.
"Okay, Su Ke, let's clean up the battlefield. I want this guy to live, so keep an eye on him." Li Fan waved his hand and yawned in boredom.
"Really, let's go back and have tea."
"Yeah! The master is invincible!" The one who reacted the fastest was Susie. This little girl jumped excitedly and chased after her. "Master Gu Letian, I'll go back and make you some scented tea."
"OK."
Seeing the two of them walking away talking and laughing, the people in the church looked at me and me, all with mixed emotions that they didn't know what to say.
…
"I have reached the realm of transcendence and sainthood, but unfortunately... I still cannot resist the erosion of time." In the dim interrogation room, the weak Raphael slowly narrated.
In less than a day, his hair had turned completely white, his eyebrows were also white, and the strangest thing was that his eyes also turned white.
The skin on his face is as wrinkled as old tree bark, just like ordinary people who have lost their time and have reached the age of seventy or eighty.
"In order to climb to a higher level, I participated in some secret experiments, hoping that I could make progress through technological means. Unfortunately, current technology can only give me a youthful appearance, but it cannot essentially give me
I help. The crystal skull in Sulin's hand can unlock the legendary higher level - the key to inner strength. Now it is my only hope."
Raphael looked at Li Fan calmly, "I am nearly ninety years old and I no longer have time to find my own path."
"Is this the thing?" Li Fan played with a crystal skull in his hand and said with a faint smile.
Su Lin was too confident in his own strength before, so when Raphael proposed a deal to him, he refused without hesitation. Until the angry Raphael directly broke through the many defenses he was proud of.
It almost took his life before he finally recognized the reality.
But now facing Li Fan's request, Sulin took out the crystal skull and gave it to Li Fan without hesitation. Speaking of which, it was actually Raphael's actions that paved the way for Li Fan.
"That's it!" Raphael looked at the crystal skull in Li Fan's hand with burning eyes, his eyes full of infinite fascination, "Sir, you have already walked this road, can you tell me whether the crystal skull can really
Want to take my martial arts to a higher level? Give me an answer so that I can die with peace of mind!"
It was obvious that Raphael, whose dream was shattered, was already determined to die.
"I want to know if it's possible. Why don't you try it yourself?" Li Fan sneered and threw the crystal skull in front of Raphael.
He had already studied this thing last night. When he poured his own inner energy into the crystal skull, he felt an invisible "qi" fused with his inner energy and finally flowed into his body.
He only felt an indescribable change taking place in his body, and when he went to study the crystal skull, although he could still feel the "qi" inside, there was no response no matter how much he studied it.
Not understanding what was going on, Li Fan could only give up temporarily and decided to reuse the waste.
Raphael stared blankly at the object that he regarded as a treasure. Li Fan threw it over without a care and gently swirled on the ground. At this moment, something in his heart seemed to be destroyed.
"I have a condition. As long as you agree to my condition, this thing will be yours."
"My lord, please give me your instructions!" Raphael touched his forehead to the ground and said respectfully.
"Be my subordinate and work for me for twenty years!" Li Fan chuckled and offered the same conditions as when he conquered Taisang.
"I promise!" Raphael had already been mentally prepared, and now he agreed without any hesitation.
If he can really break through his inner energy and greatly increase his lifespan, then it won't be a big deal to be Li Fan's younger brother for twenty years. If he can't break through, his remaining lifespan will only be twenty years at most, so it doesn't matter at all.
When a dying person suddenly grabs a life-saving straw, you don't have to guess how low his lower limit will be.
The answer is... not at all!
"Very good," Li Fan sat up from his chair and said with a smile, "Then now tell me about the power you control!"
"No problem, sir!" Raphael bowed his head respectfully.
"The "Necromancer" mercenary organization I founded is actually an armed organization affiliated with the imperial dynasty."
"You are actually related to the dynasty?" Li Fan was a little shocked.
"Yes, but our relationship with the dynasty is not as close as other departments established by other dynasties. I was recruited by the dynasty after I developed the 'Necromancer' in the beginning. It is semi-employment. I usually work as a mercenary.
Take missions to train troops and make money to be self-sufficient."
Raphael narrated with a wry smile, clearly expressing his embarrassing situation in the dynasty.
"What kind of force is the Dynasty?" Li Fan couldn't help but ask. Until now, he has dealt with the Dynasty several times, but he can even say that he has a blind eye to the Dynasty's information and knows nothing about it.
Know.
Now that someone who knows the inside story is right in front of him, Li Fan can't wait to learn more secrets.
"The internal structure of Dynasty is actually more like a huge multinational enterprise." Raphael explained to Li Fan, "Dynasty discusses and decides matters with the board of directors. There are thirteen people on the board of directors, and they control 100% of Dynasty.
Ninety percent of the assets, basically the operational direction of the entire organization is under the control of these thirteen people."
"So as long as you control these thirteen people, you can control the entire dynasty?" Li Fan asked.
"Theoretically, yes, but in practice, no." Raphael shook his head.
"The identities of these thirteen people are not simple. Some of them have a family behind them, and some have a deeper mysterious organization behind them. In fact, their words often represent the interests of the interest groups behind them, and
It is not their own will."
"So, this dynasty is a link between many forces, and its actual power is much greater than I imagined."
Li Fan's heart sank. Although he got some information about the dynasty from Raphael, the pressure continued to increase. No one could deal with such a huge force calmly.
"It is impossible to overthrow the dynasty with one's own strength. Even if the United States wants to deal with the dynasty, it must carefully consider the huge price it will pay. What's more, among the people who really control the United States, there may be members of the dynasty themselves.
