Chapter 464: The picture shows the dagger
Jiang Qian and the other two returned as quickly as possible to the task force temporarily stationed in the conference center on the top floor of the headquarters.

The hurried footsteps led from the central conference hall to the VIP meeting room at the end of the corridor.

During this time, Di Ting Wanjie quickly reported to the Black Panther Girl that eight people had been killed in the battle of Ashes, while Xiao Longnu stared at Jiang Qian intently, as if she was "watching" him to prevent him from doing anything out of line due to his animal nature getting out of control...

This is purely unnecessary worry. The animal nature accumulated from the use of natural forces has long been released through "killing".

But Jiang Qian didn't say anything. There was only one thing he cared about now, which was what the last secret letter left by Bacchus was intended to convey!
In addition to the resident Elders Bloody and Sven, there was also Bai Xiaoxi, the fourth Five-State Complex member of the Task Force. Her appearance reminded Jiang Qian of another unresolved important matter - the turtleback pattern.

Nod instead of saying hello.

Jiang Qian and the other two took their seats one after another, while the Black Panther woman stood guard at the door. Everything was ready.

"Are you all here? Close the door!"

At this time, the Bloody Elder stood up with a serious expression and showed an ordinary envelope to everyone present:
"I'm sure everyone here has heard about what happened tonight. Dionysus, one of the original Seven Gods of Ashes who had defected to the authorities, was assassinated. And this is an important piece of intelligence he left behind targeting the top leaders of the Ashes Organization!"

Jiang Qian stared at the secret letter. His spiritual vision could not penetrate the envelope, which obviously had been carefully processed.

The two elders did not explain too much about the background of the God of Wine, because they had already discussed Jiang Qian's visit to the God of Wine today. The identity of the God of Wine and what he knew were the breakthrough points for the official intelligence department to open the secrets of the Ashes Organization.

Unfortunately, the person could not be saved.

No one expected that Ashes would be bold enough to march alone deep into the heavily guarded capital city!
This shows how important and deadly the information contained in Dionysus is.

The Bloody Elder solemnly opened the envelope, as if holding a newborn baby, and gently took out the folded thin paper inside, unfolded it carefully, and placed it flat on the long conference table.

Everyone stood up and focused on the letter.

As if "aware" of the attention of everyone, bright handwriting appeared on the blank paper, stroke by stroke, as if it had just been written.

a long time.

"Is this the last thing the god of wine left behind?" Di Ting Wanjie frowned, as if he was going to use up all his life's learning just for the four sentences on the letter paper.

"It's not the god of wine..." Xiaolongnu, who was standing aside, looked stunned, staring at the words on the paper, wanting to say something but stopping herself.

"It's the handwriting of the Dragon God, Yun Zhongshuo." Elder Sven said slowly.

Jiang Qian was slightly startled, focusing on the four sentences in the letter that were very frugal:
"Taowu's nature is to take the liver and gallbladder violently"

"The eight eyes are the body and the consciousness is in the eyes"

"Nine Poems of Nothingness, Sentiment and Different Hearts"

"Gluttony, greed, Zen, moderation, abstention from greed"

……

This is talking about the remnants of the Ashes - the habits and weaknesses of the four gods today... While others were still using their eyes to describe the arbitrary brushstrokes of the legendary figures of the past, Jiang Qian's thoughts had already gone back to the year of the Gods War, imagining how the Dragon God Yun Zhongshuo explained everything before going to the Gods War.

At the same time, Elder Sven, who specialized in the profession, quickly translated these four pieces of information into something easier to understand:

"The identity card of the 'Tyrannical Lord' is 'Taowu', whose violent nature damages the liver, and whose habits create weaknesses; the eight-eyed eel is the 'lamprey', and the second sentence of the 'Destruction Lord' means that the weakness of its parasitized followers is in the eyes, and attacking their eyes can damage the parasite's consciousness..."

"The Nine-Headed Nothingness probably refers to the 'Lord of Nothingness' 'Nine-Headed Bird'. He is passionate by nature, but his nine heads are fickle. He is so-called powerful, but he often loses his composure and falls into a passive position. This is consistent with our intelligence point of view. The last one is obviously referring to the 'Lord of Greed' 'Taotie'. This is new. No wonder we have so little information about this person. It turns out that he is a 'practitioner who observes the precepts'..."

After Elder Sven finished his explanation with great relish, he stopped talking and just pondered the text on his own, as if he could taste infinite fun from these simple words.

At this time, Elder Diexue took over the conversation and said:

"It has been confirmed that this letter is a secret document that the Dragon God gave to the God of Wine for safekeeping before the God War. This means that the Dragon God had foreseen the fall of Ashes at that time. The fact that the God of Wine can entrust the secret to us at this time shows that he has made up his mind and is extremely disappointed with his colleagues back then."

So this is why the god of wine never participated in the war of gods... Jiang Qian thought to himself, the question he had wanted to ask many times, now he found the answer:

He is not a deserter, but has another mission.

"But..." Di Ting Wan Jie showed doubt, "It's been so many years, are their habits still accurate?"

"Since it is a habit, it is not something that can be easily changed, especially for those old guys who are at the top of their game and are seeking to defeat the enemy alone."

After Elder Sven finished speaking, he smiled and said:
"However, we still cannot believe this letter completely. We still need to seek truth from facts."

What a pragmatic person! You have made all the decisions... Jiang Qian couldn't help but sigh.

However, judging from the other party's interest, it was obvious that he attached great importance to the intelligence information conveyed in this letter.

Indeed, it is too difficult to understand the characteristics and habits of these villain group leaders with special identities and secretive whereabouts.

Jiang Qian knew very well that the reason why Bacchus was assassinated was because his identity was too sensitive and what he knew was too specific.

As former colleagues, the Four Gods of Ashes must have trouble sleeping every night knowing that the God of Bacchus is under official control.

but……

"Why did they choose to get rid of the god of wine at this time?"

Jiang Qian asked a crucial question:

"If there is an opportunity and a need, why not take action as soon as possible?"

"Because they have no choice. This is the capital city!" Diexue said with a frown.

Then why can the ashes come in today?

Everyone present was asking this question.

"Because of Bacchus, I was diagnosed with cancer last month..."

Sven sighed and explained:
"The Lord of Destruction can move freely among cancer patients. He does not need official deployment to carry out assassinations. As for other minor characters, they are not a threat to masters like the God of Wine."

Navigating Cancer...

Jiang Qian vaguely felt the weirdness and evil of the Lord of Ashes.

Ordinary people coming to cause trouble for the God of Bacchus are actually not a big deal, but if it is the God of Ashes of the same level, the God of Bacchus will be in danger of survival.

Seeing that there were no other objections, the Bloody Elder put away the secret letter and continued:
"I called you all here today not just to inform you of this matter."

Everyone present raised their heads and listened attentively.

"The members of the Island Country Black Chrysanthemum Society who were arrested in the Shenshan Incident: Shuizao and Yu Teng, have confessed after multiple rounds of interrogation: The Island Country Black Chrysanthemum Society has become a vassal organization of Ashes two years ago! The reason why Yu Teng was eager to kill Shuizao to silence her was because he was worried that the true backgrounds of the two would be exposed. Humph, it's a pity that they underestimated the means of the lawful officials."

Upon hearing this, everyone's face changed!

Jiang Qian was very familiar with this matter. The two arrested members of the Black Chrysanthemum Society of the island country were mainly captured by him. But it was still a bit surprising to say that the Black Chrysanthemum Society behind these two people was also a vassal of Ashes.

After all, the Black Chrysanthemum Society is a large society in the island country, a notorious disorderly organization. In any case, it will be swallowed up by the domestic Ashes Organization, which is definitely big news.

But this kind of news will obviously not be reported in the newspapers.

The message was only released to the Task Force and burned after reading.

“If the Black Chrysanthemum Society had been taking orders from Ashes two years ago, then the assassination operation on the training island… Ashes did not participate, but the Black Chrysanthemum Society was involved!” Di Ting Wanjie was the first to react.

At that time, the lawful officials reached a tacit understanding with the Ashes Organization, prompting them to give up the hunt for Qianlong Wuyong so that they could concentrate their efforts on dealing with other assassination forces.

Now it seems that I was tricked by the other party.

"So Ashes is not that honest. He has never been that honest!"

The bloody elder let out a sharp, cold laugh from his throat:

"Haha, that's not all! Recently we have obtained strong evidence that the Black Alliance that retreated to the north has been annexed by the Northern Ashes. The rumor that the leader of the Black Alliance, Qiongqi, died in the war has also been confirmed by our intelligence personnel."

Ashes again!

At this time, Elder Diexue looked at Jiang Qian meaningfully and said:

"The leader of the Black Alliance, Qiongqi, is the villain who cleared the "Whisper of the Inner Devil" before you."

Everyone looked at Jiang Qian.

Everyone knows Qianlong Wuyong's famous achievements, the first of which is completing the most difficult rookie trial "Whisper of the Inner Devil"!
The number of people who have passed this dungeon in the past can be counted on one hand, and except Qianlong Wuyong, there are only two people still alive, including the leader of the Black Alliance who holds the "Qiongqi" card.

Xiao Long Nu frowned slightly: "Why are they so eager to expand, even reaching out to foreign countries?"

"This is the follow-up work of your Task Force Operations Department."

The Bloody Elder looked around at the group, his tone becoming increasingly serious: "The authorities are currently collecting and researching the connections between Ashes and the major organizations in the Western world. We suspect that the Nordic Demon Cave (God's Domain) has long been connected to Ashes, and the clues can even be traced back to before the War of Gods..."

Hearing this, Jiang Qian's pupils tightened unconsciously.

If Ashes and Demon Cave had a connection during the War of Gods, then was the assassination that their family encountered when they were separated a means of "making a feint to the east and attacking in the west" by Ashes and Demon Cave?

Jiang Qian's hands unconsciously clenched at his sides, the desire for killing constantly surging in his blood.

"latent……"

Xiao Longnu's whispers sounded behind him, and Jiang Qian subconsciously loosened his palm and turned his head.

He felt the care from his senior sister and the concern in her eyes.

"I am fine."

Jiang Qian lowered his eyes and concentrated, thinking that the seniors were more experienced.

This visit to Bacchus was the first time he used natural forces after being promoted to the Five-State Complex. The aggressive animal restlessness was not as easy to pacify as when he was in the Four-State.

And because he had merged three powerful beast cards, whenever the animal nature came, the "bad habits" that originally belonged to the owners of those three cards would occasionally become rampant and try to occupy his mind.

They are like "cancers" growing in his body, or time bombs that could plunge him into an abyss of loss of control at any time.

This brings up another problem: in the future, as he fuses more and more dragon identity cards, this situation will only get worse...

The image of the trembling bear of the ever-changing sperm-swallowing beast emerged in my mind.

"Hidden Dragon, don't use it?"

"exist."

Jiang Qian collected his thoughts and looked at Elder Sven.

Elder Sven smiled with modesty and appreciation: "The two tortoise shells and a folk tribal totem you provided last time have both received preliminary identification results."

After that, he turned to Bai Xiaoxi and said, "Tell me about it."

Bai Xiaoxi took a step forward and opened the folder in her arms. Three drawings hand-drawn by Jiang Qian appeared in front of them.

"Based on the logical rules of ancient characters found around the world, intelligence personnel at headquarters have deduced several possible types of information. The two tortoise shells, one represents time, and the other is a pictogram of a certain place. This is the preliminary result of the deciphering. More precise information will take some time."

She moved her fingers from the two tortoise-back patterns to the last totem that Jiang Qian copied from the Linyuan Village ceremony site, and continued:

"This totem has appeared in the natural tribes in the mountainous areas of the territory. Records say it is the incarnation of the god of death. Similar totems have also appeared in the ashes raising ceremony."

Ashes, ashes again!
There was silence in the meeting room. Everyone sensed something unusual in these events that were intricately related to the ashes.

All the clues that have been revealed seem to hint at a shocking "quagmire". No one knows where it is and when it will be revealed, leaving an irreparable scar on the law-abiding officials and even this orderly world!

Things have reached the point where they have to be resolved.

"It is the mission of the Task Force to investigate all of Ashes' overseas connections."

The Bloody Elder emphasized again.

In addition to the high-risk "Dragon Card Development" mission, there is also an investigation into Ashes' overseas forces.

Everyone, including Jiang Qian, realized how difficult the task force operation was!

"To this end, the headquarters will provide us with the maximum amount of resources, just to prepare us for this critical period."

Elder Sven added.

"What about the domestic situation?" Jiang Qian asked. "What countermeasures does the organization have for the domestic ashes?"

This question may seem abrupt, but in fact it does not exceed the scope of knowledge of the Task Force. For such a big matter, internal and external linkages are inevitable, and the internal and external strategies must naturally complement and enhance each other.

Elders Diexue and Sven looked at each other, both revealing an elusive smile:

"We have been planning for Ashes for a long time, and we have hidden cards in hidden corners that they won't notice."

……

The meeting ended after the itinerary for the next ten days was finalized.

The headquarters will arrange for the task force to "take immediate action", but the task force's mission location is not within the country.

In other words, all members of the task force will set foot on foreign soil one after another within ten days, starting a secret overseas assignment lasting at least one year.

But even with such a tight schedule, Jiang Qian still submitted an application to the headquarters for permission to go home to visit his family.

In name, the purpose was to give some explanations to the family before going abroad, so as to avoid the adverse impact of the only son in the family disappearing; in reality, there was a problem with the tourmaline prop that was used to protect the house.

The house-guarding tourmaline is a set of props that Jiang Qian obtained when he was promoted to a powerful official. It is composed of four-colored tourmaline and has the functions of warding off evil spirits, protecting health, and regulating intimate relationships. It is known as the "Four Pillar Door Gods"... But Jiang Qian prefers its other name: private detective "Axi".

Therefore, ever since he got the house-guarding tourmaline, private detective Axi would be the first to inform him of any turbulent changes in the family.

In this way, even if he doesn't go home often, Jiang Qian will be able to know the situation at home.

But recently this private detective seems to be a bit "slack", reporting less, responding slowly, and updating family data at a significantly lower frequency!

Especially his sister's data, whether it is health or intimate relationship status, there has been no change at all in such a long time - her health status is flawless, and there is no relationship between man and woman.

This seemed very unusual to Jiang Qian.

After all, as women get older, they will more or less have the desire to start a family, and it is unlikely that they will not have a boyfriend at all, unless her health condition is also a lie...

Jiang Qian had also speculated about his sister's identity. She might be a super-species player with a higher rank than him. Because of the sensitivity of her identity, she hid it from everyone in the family, including him, her younger brother who had already revealed his identity in the super-species world.

But the more this happened, the more curious Jiang Qian became.

Especially now that he has reached the fifth state, even the super-species energy structures of the sixth-state elders like Diexue and Sven can be seen by him. If his sister is really a big shot in a high position, he is now confident that he can "see the truth" of her.

But why do we have to “see what’s going on”?

Was it curiosity alone that drove Jiang Qian to act?
When it comes to identifying friends and enemies, Jiang Qian never doubted Yu Xuan.

He even had reason to believe that his sister had reached a consensus with the organization and was an "ace agent" who was specifically responsible for secretly protecting the Jiang family's safety.

But even so, Jiang Qian was not used to just staying at guesswork, he wanted to seek some certainty as much as possible.

Overseas missions are difficult and dangerous, and he is not sure whether he will have the chance to know the truth after "leaving" this time.

……

Ye Xiaojing accompanied me on the journey back to Jinping.

After entering the city, the two went their separate ways and Jiang Qian took a taxi home.

Even after evolving to the fifth state, in cities with complete infrastructure, lawful license holders still abide by the travel regulations of the human world in an orderly manner.

This is both a way to maintain humanity and a way to exercise self-discipline to avoid trouble.

On the way, Jiang Qian leaned against the back seat of the car, closed his eyes and concentrated, silently thinking about how to make the most powerful use of his double-brand natural power under the existing conditions.

Unfortunately, the inexplicable bumps in the taxi interrupted his thoughts.

Jiang Qian opened his eyes alertly. The street scene in front was retreating to both sides in an orderly manner. In the distance, the twin towers of Wanzhong Group's Jinping Branch towered into the sky and slowly moved as the perspective of the spectators in the car was slightly adjusted.

Nearby, a breeze was blowing, and on the driver's radio, the crosstalk artist's witty remarks were causing the audience to burst into laughter.

Business as usual.

Jiang Qian couldn't help laughing at himself. His trip this time was highly confidential. Now he was in Jinping, the territory of Yongye Chongming and Ji Ming. Who could reach out to him and cause trouble for him?

Then I closed my eyes again and enjoyed the leisurely and comfortable ride through the city.

But not long after, the taxi stopped...

It was not a gradual stop, but an abrupt halt without any warning.

When Jiang Qian opened his eyes, his spiritual vision opened wide!

The suddenly frozen street scene and the motionless driver in the front seat were reminding him that a crisis was approaching.

……
