It had only been two or three days since the incident, and only a few people knew about it, so he didn't know that the incident was related to Bennett's death.
In fact, he doesn't even know that Bennett is dead now. The news hasn't been sent back in time, at least to people of his level.
As for the connection between the "mysterious giant in the snow mountain" and the "black robe", he knew nothing about it.
The reason why he was surprised was that the short video was indeed beautifully shot. Secondly, he could also see that the figure on the top of the peaks should indeed be a strong man, so he naturally paid attention.
But I didn't expect that the mysterious strong man who was hotly discussed on the Internet would appear here.
…
"You look surprised." The other person's voice came again in my mind.
At the same time, Cheng Lin, who was lying not far behind the white man, fluttered his eyelashes and changed his posture slightly.
Naturally, he pretended to be in a coma to facilitate torture. After all, he believed that facing a strong man from the Xia Kingdom and a strong man whose identity was unknown and whose position was unknown, the white man would definitely be more willing to communicate with the latter.
While running just now, he secretly took out the "Black Flag" and threw it on the roadside. Then he pretended to faint and controlled the combined fighting spirit to appear. At the same time, he turned on his "synaesthesia" ability, observed the scene, and used the ability to communicate with the opponent.
Now it looks like the effect is good.
"Indeed... I am really surprised that you appeared here. After all, you were at the border not long ago." The white man smiled bitterly.
"What's your name?" Cheng Lin asked with the help of synaesthesia.
"You can call me Angus." Angus hesitated and said.
"I just passed by here and noticed a fight, so I chased after you and happened to meet you... Haha, can you tell me what happened? I'm very curious." Cheng Lin's voice sounded.
At the same time, he controlled the combined fighting spirit to slightly shake the exaggerated sickle.
Angus swallowed, forced a smile and said:
"Of course... I'm happy to explain to you, I... I participated in a smuggling, um, smuggling of cultivation materials and sold them to some people in the Xia Kingdom. As a result, I was chased by a trap set by Special Division. I was lucky enough to escape, probably.
That’s it.”
The giant said nothing.
After a while, Angus clearly noticed that the other party's power was getting more violent, which was not a good sign.
The next second, he heard Cheng Lin's voice: "You are lying."
Cheng Lin's tone sounded very determined and unhappy.
Although the "Synaesthesia" power cannot receive the other party's mental signals, it can sense the other party's emotions. This was tested on Ciri. When Angus said the above words, Cheng Lin
I clearly felt an erratic and guilty feeling.
"No, Your Excellency, everything I said is true..."
Angus was startled when he heard this, and hurriedly opened his mouth to defend himself.
However, Cheng Lin sensed from the spiritual level that his "guilt" was getting stronger.
So Cheng Lin controlled the combined spirit to lift the scythe, hanging it above Angus's head like the sword of Bodhidharma, and said: "You are challenging my patience, and my patience has never been good."
Angus paused for a moment, with big beads of sweat rolling down his forehead. After a moment, he finally let go and said:
"I did not deceive you just now. This incident was indeed due to a material smuggling incident, but... the reason why Terry came to arrest me was because of my identity."
Sensing that Angus's mood had returned to "normal", the giant moved the scythe away slightly and asked curiously:
"Your identity? You are..."
Angus took a breath and said seriously: "The Transcendent from the Thirteenth District of the Federation is currently responsible for reorganizing the Black Fang of the Xia Kingdom, and is the new Black Fang President."
Cheng Lin: "?"
…
…
Yiyuan.
Cao Zhang looked at his subordinates returning from all directions and kept asking if they had found anything. However, the answer he got was always "none", which made his face so heavy that he almost dripped with water.
He was standing next to the broken bridge at the moment, and his injuries had been bandaged.
Angus was more difficult to deal with than he expected, not because of his strength. In fact, compared to Cao Zhang, Angus's own combat power was not a threat.
Although he is still in the fifth level, his skill points do not seem to be focused on frontal combat, but rather on hiding, hiding, and escaping.
He also carried many powerful psychic weapons with him, which caught Cao Zhang and others by surprise. Although they succeeded in seriously injuring him, he still managed to escape.
This undoubtedly made him extremely angry, and even Liang Pi and others standing next to him were silent.
"Deputy Director Cao... I suggest expanding the search area. The opponent is seriously injured and will not be able to escape far."
Said a small lapel.
Cao Zhang did not nod immediately, but sighed deeply and said: "The search is necessary, but the hope is slim. The nearby terrain is complicated, and he is extremely good at evasion and concealment... He failed to complete the mission.
Get ready."
"Deputy Director Cao, we succeeded in seriously injuring him. Doesn't this count as a failure?"
One person said somewhat unwillingly.
Cao Zhang suddenly turned his head, stared at him with cold eyes, and said word by word: "Don't forget, we are the second division! This is failure!"
After that, he waved his hands tiredly and said: "Team 1 will continue to expand the search scope, and Team 2 will organize and appease the tourists."
Seeing a group of people disperse, he took off the peaked cap on his head, held on to the broken railing, looked up at the wheel of fate in the sky, and sighed quietly: "Where did you escape to?"
…
"Are you the new black president?"
The giant was silent for a moment before asking for confirmation.
After saying this, Cheng Lin complained in his heart: "What a coincidence, I am also the one that the new black president is pretending to be."
"Yes, I used to be responsible for liaison with the red side. I was transferred here some time ago to gather the remnants of the black side in Xia Kingdom. I just arrived in the Magic City and was caught by Terry Si and set up an ambush." Ange.
Si Henhen said.
It's true... From an emotional level, Cheng Lin judged that the other party should be telling the truth.
"What is the red square?"
After hesitating for a while, Cheng Lin finally asked. This was the first time he heard this word.
Angus explained without surprise: "It is an organization similar to Black Fang, which is also a casual cultivator force that we support in other countries. It does some work for us and is named after the five brands of whiskey, namely black, red and green.
,gold,blue.”
Cheng Lin suddenly realized that it was only then that he finally knew the origin of the name "Black Fang". Before, he thought that the namer had a similar aesthetic to him... but he did not expect that people are particular about naming.
Disappointed, Cheng Lin continued to ask for more details.
Angus probably saw that this mysterious giant had some kind of lie detection ability, so he became more honest and roughly told the whole story. Only then did Cheng Lin understand the whole story and lamented that sometimes things in this world are really coincidences.
It's unspeakable.
It makes no sense for Senior Sister Meng and Senior Sister Meng to encounter this kind of thing.
According to Angus, after he was appointed, his first stop was to integrate the "Yangtze River Delta" area, with the Demon City being the top priority. However, who would have thought that he would be ambushed just as he made some progress.
"So, you haven't had time to integrate the forces in other places?" the giant asked after hearing this.
Angus nodded slightly strangely, but Cheng Lin breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, he hasn't gone to Chang'an yet, otherwise it would be fun to meet the Zhang Hou brothers..."
Complaining in his heart, Cheng Lin once again controlled the combined fighting spirit and said leisurely: "So that's how it is. You are honest, yes, I like it, but... if you tell it frankly like this, aren't you worried that I will sell you to the special one?"
Li Si?"
Upon hearing this, Angus raised his head and said seriously: "I believe you wouldn't do this."
"Oh? Why?"
"Although I don't know your identity very well, it can be seen from the video that you are not a member of the Xia Kingdom's government system. I have already learned during this period that the special department is also curious about your identity. In this way,
Come, we won't have any hostile relationship. Besides, if you want to do this, you won't talk nonsense with me for so long."
Angus analyzed weakly but firmly.
After a pause, he continued: "On the contrary, it may be difficult for you to gain anything by handing me over to Tris, but as long as you let me go, I am willing to pay you a satisfactory reward."
"Oh? Remuneration?" Cheng Lin's eyes lit up.
So, Angus saw the tall giant's scarlet eyes sweeping over him. After a moment, a voice sounded in his mind: "A monk of your level should be wearing storage equipment, right?"
The smile on Angus' face froze after hearing this, "My storage badge was destroyed in the previous battle."
"Destroyed?" The giant's voice raised a pitch.
"Yes...in order not to leave it to Tris, I crushed it with my own hands. When the badge is damaged, the space inside will collapse, and everything inside will cease to exist."
"Then what else can you pay me?" The giant seemed a little angry.
Angus hurriedly regained his smile and said: "Sir, I have something else. In order to rebuild Black, I brought a batch of supplies into the Xia Kingdom through special channels. Some of them have been used, but there are still some left.
Part of it is stored in a warehouse somewhere in the Magic City, and its value is worth tens of millions...US dollars. I am willing to give it to you as a reward."
As he spoke, probably to show his sincerity, Angus quickly reported a list of locations and claimed that Cheng Lin could go there to pick up the goods at any time.
"Of course, I know that just one location still lacks sincerity. After all, you can't see the real thing. So, I still carry a roll of superpower blueprints with me. It is my own fifth-level superpower, although you may not be able to use it.
Yes, but whether it is sold or exchanged for supplies, it is still worth some money."
As he spoke, Angus took out a wet roll of paper from his clothes.
"Level five powers? Could it be that you..." Cheng Lin was slightly startled.
"That's right, my main awakening is not the water system. It's just because my affinity for the water element is pretty good, so I learned this ability. Since I'm not very proficient, I often observe the blueprints and practice." Angus explained.
"Well, that's it...your sincerity is good." Cheng Lin controlled the giant and nodded with satisfaction.
Angus was immediately overjoyed and said: "Then please accept it. When I finish recovering, I will see you in the future and thank you very much."
On the emotional level, I immediately felt "guilty". Obviously, this sentence was false again.
Cheng Lin didn't care. He was wondering whether to continue to find ways to dig out some information from Angus or to give up. After all, it took too long and he was afraid of attracting the Second Division.
But suddenly, the cell phone in his pocket rang.
The sweet ringing of the phone suddenly broke the tranquility in the forest.
Angus suddenly turned his head to look, and then he only saw the young man who was supposed to be "coma" getting up, sighing helplessly, taking out his cell phone, turning his head and showing his white teeth at him: "Originally...
I wanted to chat with you again, but it’s a pity that I called you.”
Cheng Lin said with a helpless expression.
Angus's eyes were widened, as if he had seen a ghost, and he didn't even want to understand what was going on.
Is this Xia man not in a coma?
Or did you wake up early?
Did you hear your previous conversation? It doesn't matter. At worst, you will be killed and silenced.
But what's with the indifferent expression on his face?
Why is there no fear at all?
This is so abnormal.
Angus's mind was in a mess, and suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed in his mind.
Could it be...
He turned his head suddenly and saw that the giant behind him had already raised the death scythe, and his scarlet eyes were staring at him emotionlessly.
"Your Excellency...you..."
Angus exclaimed.
Immediately, he saw the young man behind him stand up, slowly walk around in front of him, then stand between the legs of the "giant", bend down to pick up his roll of superpower drawings, and show an apologetic smile:
"I'm sorry, Angus, although your reward is very attractive, but... I still can't let you go."
After saying that, Cheng Lin lightly snapped his fingers and slashed down with the combined battle soul sickle!
The entire huge body also turned into a terrifying ghost mouth, swarming into Angus's chest and tearing him apart!
Angus, who had been seriously injured, had no power to fight back and could only stare at Cheng Lin in disbelief with his eyes wide open.
