mysterious forerunner

Chapter 204 Living alone
[Sword Shooting] This thing is simply the temptation of the devil!

It's really easy to use, but if he suddenly loses control of turning around during the battle... Zhang Qingxiang will have no choice but to flip forward and back quickly.

Because Zhang Qingxiang tried it, once he "turned around" and turned his back to the enemy, it was very difficult to turn his head.

When Xing Tian saw the [Sword Shooter] flying towards him, he was frightened out of his wits. He had seen this thing kill the mother's body with his own eyes! Seeing that he couldn't dodge, he suddenly threw out a badly worn turtle shell.

This is an ancient divination tool, but after the advent of the era of spiritual practice, it became a defensive secret.

And it is the most powerful defensive secret in Xingtian's hand.

Then he was smashed into the ground by [Sword Shooting] with a bang.

The huge power of the shooting sword pressed Xingtian all the way down, sinking into the ground more than ten meters!
The sharp edge of the [Sword Shooting] and the defensive capabilities of the tortoise shell were in constant conflict, and a crack gradually appeared on the tortoise shell.

As Xingtian was continuously pressed into the ground, this crack spread rapidly, gradually covering the entire body of the tortoise shell.

Click!

Finally, the tortoise shell couldn't bear it anymore and broke into pieces, and countless fragments shot into the surrounding soil.

But he finally gave Xing Tian a little chance. Xing Tian slapped the leather armor he had transformed into at [Butcher Shop No. 17], and dozens of "meat pieces" flew out. He didn't know what kind of creatures they were. Flesh and blood flew out and instantly transformed into Xing Tian's appearance.

Each one is real “flesh”!
[Sword Shooting] I couldn't tell the difference at once, so I swiped sideways and cut off more than a dozen "Xingtian" in half.

But still more than a dozen "Xingtian" escaped.

Just now, Ye Yousheng used several fake "Zhang Qingxiang" to scare Xing Tian. This time, he was "treating the other person in his own way." However, Xing Tian didn't feel the slightest bit proud. He climbed up from the pit that was more than ten meters deep and ran away, with more than a dozen bodies running in different directions.

Zhang Qingxiang still couldn't control it, and was about to turn his back to Xing Tian - only to find that there were more than a dozen "Xing Tian" fleeing in different directions.

Zhang Qingxiang suddenly laughed.

The side effects of the secret substance are offset!

Which Xingtian should I turn my back on?
If you turn your back to one, you will face the other.

"Hahaha!" Zhang Qingxiang laughed, having never used [Sword Shooting] so freely and without any psychological burden!
Swish, swish, swish——

The [Sword Shooting] was extremely fast, and three or four bodies were chopped off in an instant.

Zhang Qingxiang, on the other hand, was holding [Feng Tianshuo], pulling the secret fire Chi, chasing a "flesh body" and determined not to let go!

Xing Tian's heart is bleeding!

He has many ways to save his life. Since the beginning of the battle, several items have been thrown one after another.

But the "flesh" of [Butcher Shop No. 17] is undoubtedly the most effective.

Because these bodies are interchangeable with each other.

In other words, if the real Xingtian is accidentally killed by [Sword Shooting], he can quickly exchange with any body.

Then it was the physical body that died, and the real Xing Tian escaped with his life.

But in [Butcher Shop No. 17], those "cuts of meat" are numerous. Not just any piece of meat is eligible to be admitted to [Butcher Shop No. 17].

Only the mystery in certain large-scale scenes can capture qualified pieces of meat.

The side effects of this strange secret are very terrible, so the cost of capturing the meat is actually very high.

When Xing Tian got this secret object, there were twenty pieces of meat in it. There were only two more pieces in his hand.

Now he released all these pieces of meat in one breath.

If they are all killed, the value of [Butcher Shop No. 17] will be reduced by at least half! Even if you escape with your life this time, it will be almost impossible to recover the "storage" in the future...

[Fen Tianshuo] The two-foot-long Shuo Feng pierced through the air, the cold light flashed and the secret fire shone.

Xing Tian waved his hands, and the knives stuck in the leather armor flew up, and almost all of them struck Fen Tianshuo in no particular order.

There was a clanking sound, and Fen Tianshuo's offensive was finally withstood, but the secret fire Chi swam up, ignoring all the knives, biting Xing Tian's left arm, and then wrapped around Xing Tian with a cry.

laugh--

Fen Tianshuo attacked again and stabbed Xing Tian through the neck!

But Zhang Qingxiang immediately sensed that this Xingtian was fake.

Zhang Qingxiang frowned and locked his eyes on this guy. He must be his real body!

[Sword Shooting] I can’t tell the difference, but I can tell it myself. And the knives in [Butcher Shop No. 17] just now can also prove that this is the real person.

"Substitute technique? Is it his professional ability or the effect of a secret object?" Zhang Qingxiang shook [Fen Tianshuo], and Xingtian, who had turned into a piece of flesh, was thrown out from Shuofeng. Zhang Qingxiang looked around and saw other things. Looking for the real Xingtian in the flesh.

[Sword Shooting] caught up with another body and chopped it off with a swish. Zhang Qingxiang quickly locked onto the real target.

His [Tianting] secret technique can accurately grasp all breath changes. There is a clear difference in the breath between the physical body and the real Xingtian.

Zhang Qingxiang chased after a fake body, but he just chased, holding [Feng Tianshuo] and not attacking.

[Sword Shooting] cut off another physical body, and now only one real Xingtian and one physical body are left.

Zhang Qingxiang manipulated [Sword Shooting] to kill the physical body, the one he was currently chasing.

The real Xingtian was overjoyed and sped up to escape.

Swah——

[Sword Shooting] fell, and the last body was broken into two pieces. At this moment, Zhang Qingxiang turned around uncontrollably, facing the real Xing Tian with his back to the body!

[Sword Shooting] went straight to Xingtian under the control of Zhang Qingxiang.

Xing Tian cursed secretly. This secret object was simply cheating. It was too fast and he couldn't escape at his own speed.

Ding!
A copper coin popped out of Xing Tian's hand - this precious secret could only be used for the last time.

The copper coins rolled, and the big hand in the void had appeared, and was about to grab the coins...

Zhang Qingxiang grabbed the [Blood Knife Flower] and slashed it hard.

Interrupt the spellcasting!

The big illusory hand was disturbed and became a little erratic, but it quickly regained its stability and still grabbed the copper coin.

Zhang Qingxiang secretly said something bad, the [Blood Knife Flower] was not of a high enough rank and could only cause a certain amount of interference, but could not completely interrupt the spellcasting.

Zhang Qingxiang waved the [Blood Knife Flower] again without hesitation, but this time it was a void cage!

The ancient copper coin rolled in the air, and then suddenly disappeared.

Trapped in a cage of void.

The big illusory hand grabbed nothing, so he was very angry, suddenly stretched out from the void, and slapped Xing Tian hard!
boom!
Xing Tian flew out and blasted into a building dozens of meters away like a cannonball.

Xing Tian simply crashed through the building and flew out from the other side. At the same time, he cursed in his heart: Is this bastard Zhang Qingxiang trying to defeat me?

You actually broke my secret like this!

He really saw that the knife in Zhang Qingxiang's hand was of a lower rank than his own copper coin. It was supposed to be unable to interfere with the copper coin, but he happened to seize the opportunity and ruined his last chance to escape!
Zhang Qingxiang was already chasing after him from the air. Of course Xing Tian would not kill him at his neck. He took out two strange talismans and stuck them on his legs. The talismans ignited illusory flames. The flames stretched out like countless long red talismans. hair.

"Scud"!
Xing Tian's legs turned into afterimages, and he was about to pick up speed - suddenly a long tape popped out of the diagonal stab. Xing Tian was caught off guard and tripped on it. He fell to the ground and rolled dozens of meters away. Headache, nose, bruises and swollen face!
On the top of a house not far away, three heads popped up together, and Yuanzi waved to Zhang Qingxiang excitedly.

Zhang Qingxiang would not let the opportunity slip away anymore, he rushed forward and stabbed [Feng Tianshuo] in his hand, and at the same time threw [The Devourer] in the air.

[The Devourer] reached the top of Xingtian's head and opened his mouth silently.

Red lightning emerged, falling and covering Xingtian.

Xing Tian slapped his leather armor, and dozens of knives flew up, clanging against Fen Tianshuo, but immediately after, these knives were swallowed up by red lightning!

Xingtian was suddenly empty-handed!

"What the hell!" Xing Tian cursed loudly, and took out another chain, pulling it out with a clatter. The chain split into two and then into four in an instant, turning into countless chains, like a big net, and drew it towards Fen Tianshuo.

Zhang Qingxiang used [Feng Tianshuo] to pick up the chains and yanked violently. Xing Tian also let out a roar. In his "Kuafu Clan" state, he was so powerful that he even pulled Zhang Qingxiang to stagger.

But [Sword Shooting] is here.

Swah——

Xing Tian was cut in half from head to toe with a sword!

The leather armor of [Butcher Shop No. 17] cannot stop the sharpness of [Sword Shooting].

Xing Tian stood still, and after a moment, his tall body fell to both sides, and his internal organs leaked all over the ground with a loud splash!
Zhang Qingxiang turned his back to Xing Tian uncontrollably - but it looked like he had killed a powerful enemy in one go and then turned around and left without looking.

Reflecting a truly strong and unparalleled self-confidence!
From a distance, Shi Luo and the other three watched with great admiration: Sure enough, a real tough guy is never afraid of an explosion with his back turned.

On the ground, Xingtian's body gradually degenerated, changing from the Kuafu clan to its original appearance.

……

Near the church, Tian Mingkun, who had lost his face, was chasing and beating two golden retrievers with his colleagues.

Many priests in the church rushed out, but their strength was weak. Xiong Zhenlin named them one by one. Blood spurts continued to explode from their bodies. One by one, they were shot, and soon they all turned into corpses.

When Zhang Qing came back from the fight, Brian and Thomson could no longer hold on.

Zhang Qingxiang shouted: "Keep alive!"

A huge fire knife condensed in Ximen Ye's hand, and he fell with the knife, cutting off Brian's head.

Feng Xiaoxian blasted an energy ball into Thomson's chest. Wang Changyong took the opportunity to attack and hit all the hits in a series of moves. All the bones in Thomson's body were broken, all his internal organs were shattered, and he fell down with bleeding eyes. .

Everyone looked at each other, a little embarrassed. You spoke a little late, Yanei...

Zhang Qingxiang was speechless for a while. There were no survivors on the ground. The clues as to whether Jishijiao would take other actions next were completely lost.

But we can’t blame everyone for starting too quickly.

The battle on the mysterious side is like this. In most cases, you can't hold back, because the abilities of secret objects are all kinds of strange, and if you don't pay attention, you may capsize in the gutter.

"Leave me alone -" Suddenly there was a voice coming from far away. Everyone turned around and saw: an open-top military vehicle was driving quickly. Dr. Ma was standing on the vehicle, holding the frame of the vehicle with one hand, leaning half of his body. After getting out of the car, he was waving to everyone excitedly.

ga-

The military vehicle swerved and stopped in front of everyone. Dr. Ma jumped out before the vehicle stopped, and then waved his arms vigorously, commanding several men in the vehicle: "Hurry, hurry, hurry!"

"The shorter the time, the better the effect."

His three men had a clear division of labor. One of them rushed forward, picked up Brian's head, and then connected his neck to a special vessel.

The vessel was filled with a light green viscous liquid, and from time to time, several strange electric eel-like fish flashed through it, releasing light blue lightning. After several lightning strikes, Brian's head suddenly opened his eyes.

"Ah -" Brian screamed in fear, and Dr. Ma immediately ordered his men: "Let him sleep for a while. He cannot accept his current state yet."

The men immediately turned up a knob under the vessel, some kind of medicine was mixed into the mucus, and Brian immediately fell into a deep sleep.

The second man was carrying a huge backpack, half as tall as a man, which seemed very heavy. His pace was slow.

He pulled out a metal wire from his backpack and connected it to a receiver-like device. He held a readout in his other hand and came to Thomson's body.

The instrument in the backpack started, "Buzzing——", and everyone immediately felt a sense of irritation.

Dr. Ma pulled everyone away and said, "This is a ghost storage container. It will radiate a certain amount of energy and affect everyone's souls.

Just stay away and it'll be fine. "

The man held the receiver-like device and walked four times around Thomson's body. Suddenly, the huge thing in the backpack vibrated and made a huge impact.

Boom boom boom...

Dr. Ma was overjoyed: "Great, it finally worked!"

He grabbed Zhang Qingxiang's arm excitedly: "This is the third generation of this machine, and the previous two generations have failed."

"Let's go, I'll take you to see the captured ghost."

The vibration of the instrument in the backpack finally stopped. Dr. Ma opened the backpack and took out an ice cube-like crystal from it. It was square and about the size of a baseball.

There was a small shadow of Thomson frozen inside.

Its mouth opened wide and its eyes widened. It was obviously caught by the instrument, which frightened the ghost.

Zhang Qingxiang raised his thumbs: "Master, you are brilliant! We can directly interrogate the soul and get the information we want."

Dr. Ma's eyes were a little dodgey: "Hey, it should be like this."

"Ok?"

Dr. Ma smiled coquettishly and said honestly: "What...the soul reader used in conjunction with this capture device has just been developed into the second generation and may not be so reliable."

Zhang Qingxiang curled his lips and suddenly had an idea: "Let Taoist Yihang work with you to perfect the soul reader as soon as possible."

Dr. Ma's eyes moved. He had seen Yihangdaoren's [Weight Meter] and highly recognized Yihangdaoren's ability.

The third subordinate, carrying a lot of equipment on his back, rushed towards Xing Tian's body.

Zhang Qingxiang was surprised: "What is he going to do?"

"Xingtian can transform into certain legendary gods, and his corpse has extremely high research value..."

Zhang Qingxiang pushed the soldier carrying the trap: "Go and capture Xingtian's ghost! As long as we can read his memory, we can uproot the [Xingtian Society]!"

The soldier rushed over hastily. The trap was very heavy and his speed was too slow. Zhang Qingxiang simply picked it up and quickly walked to Xingtian's body.

The trap was activated again and circled around Xing Tian's body five or six times. Zhang Qingxiang was almost disappointed when the trap suddenly vibrated again.

After a while, Dr. Ma took out the crystal that "sealed" Xing Tian: "Hahaha, the current success rate is 100%!"

Minister Zhang Qing breathed a sigh of relief.

"The secret case team is closed."

"Cleaning up team..."

Dr. Ma suddenly grabbed Zhang Qingxiang, winked and said, "I want to discuss something with you."

"Your cleanup team, please cooperate with our troops."

"From now on, everyone will complete the clean-up work together. If you encounter materials with research value, send them directly to my laboratory."

Zhang Qingxiang thought about it and said, "How about the two research institutes also sign a cooperation agreement?"

Zhang Qingxiang added: "Our research institute is fully responsible for the work of Yihangdao people."

"I think it works!"

Zhang Qingxiang laughed, and the two shook hands vigorously and reached cooperation.

Zhang Qingxiang: "The cleanup team comes in!"

Dr. Ma: "The collection team comes in!"

……

In the past few days, Yihang Daoren's research institute has been expanding rapidly, and the Xiao family no longer hinders it. It has also received secret support from the Meng family, and a large amount of funds have been allocated.

Mr. Guo took the lead and hired a large number of researchers from all over Lingxi Province and several brother provinces with good relations.

Mr. Guo even established a "Security Section" for the institute, with a total of six people, all of whom were professionals.

During this period, professionals continued to emerge, and the problem of insufficient manpower in the secret case team was greatly alleviated. Only then did there be excess strength to form the "Security Section".

Liang Zimian persuaded Mr. Guo to assign four professional guards to him.

Mr. Guo was reluctant to give up, but still felt that good steel should be used on the blade: "I am an old man, I will not encounter any danger, and I don't need the protection of professionals."

"Besides, I have you by my side, which is enough to ensure my safety."

The strength of the research institute has been greatly enhanced. In the past few days, the production line of [Component Meter] has been improved. The first batch of twenty products has been completed, half of which are kept in Lingxi Province and half of which are sent to the capital.

In addition, the upgrade of the secret case team to the Secret Security Bureau is also progressing in an orderly manner across the country.

A Taoist man received the news from Zhang Qingxiang and came to three groups to meet with Dr. Ma.

After everyone exchanged pleasantries, Dr. Ma pointed to the ghost trap placed on the table and said, "Taoist Master, take a look. Your valuable opinions are welcome."

The first channel leader nodded. This was Dr. Ma’s “test” against him. Although the two parties have agreed to cooperate, who will take the lead depends on their respective research capabilities.

He opened the instrument, studied it carefully, and then pointed out several problems.

Dr. Ma remained calm and said, "These problems do still exist."

Being able to ask questions is not a skill. The third-generation machine is still very rough, and many problems can be seen at a glance by anyone with some skills.

A Taoist man pondered, thought for about ten minutes, and came up with a solution to one of the problems.

It's not a specific solution, but Dr. Ma thought about it along this line of thinking, and his expression became serious for the first time: "It's probably the right idea! The Taoist priest is amazing."

Zhang Qingxiang secretly gave a thumbs up to Yihang Daoist, who smiled reservedly.

With today's performance, in the future cooperation between the two parties, it can at least be guaranteed that the research institute of the secret case team will not become a vassal of the military.

A channel man has won the right to speak for himself by virtue of his ability.

Dr. Ma waved his hand: "Let's go and visit our laboratory."

"The second-generation soul reader is also there."

Zhang Qingxiang also went with him. Everyone sat in a military vehicle and went through various inspections before entering the base.

Then there will basically be nothing going on in Zhang Yanei.

Dr. Ma's research covers a wide range of fields, and there are a large number of semi-finished products in the laboratory. People from the first channel were so excited that they started discussing with Dr. Ma enthusiastically.

The two of them had a collision of ideas and came up with many good ideas.

"Xiao Chen, Xiao Zhou!" Dr. Ma shouted to his assistant: "Follow the two of us and write down everything we discussed. Don't miss a word!"

When they arrived next to the second-generation soul reader, the two of them became more and more excited as they discussed, completely ignoring the fact that there was Zhang Qingxiang next to them.

Zhang Qingxiang looked at the time and saw that it was already four o'clock in the afternoon! The two of them had no intention of stopping, so he had no choice but to grab a soldier and said with a wry smile: "Let them continue the discussion. Send a car to take me back first."

"Yes!"

Zhang Qingxiang returned to the third group, more than half an hour before he was on duty.

"Uncle Ba, senior brother Ximen, come with me to interrogate Brian."

Bryan's head stayed in the three-point group. Dr. Ma left an assistant behind to control the equipment.

The assistant turned a knob under the life-support vessel, and Brian woke up after more than ten seconds.

His eyes moved, and now the only things he could move were his eyes and mouth.

He's still full of terror, with only one head left alive, something that would have only appeared in science fiction movies before.

And as this "head", from Brian's perspective, it was very scary. Until now, he still can't accept it.

Zhang Qingxiang stood aside with his arms folded and signaled Uncle Ba with his eyes.

Uncle Ba was an old security guard with rich experience in interrogation. Zhang Qingxiang remained silent and left it to Uncle Ba to preside over the trial.

Uncle Ba stepped forward: "Do you smoke?"

Brian glanced at him coldly and didn't respond. Uncle Ba asked again: "Can I get you a cup of coffee?"

Brian gritted his teeth and said, "You are wasting your time!"

"How can you persuade me to leak any information to you now that I am neither a human nor a ghost?"

Uncle Ba chuckled: "If you don't say anything, we will let you stay like this forever!"

Brian's expression changed.

Uncle Ba continued: "Have you ever seen those science fiction movies, where there is only one head left, but they are still alive. It is because they still have hope, such as they can regrow their bodies or replace them with a mechanical body."

"But you won't have that."

"We can even let you die and then bring you back."

"You open your eyes again and see that you are still a living head. This feeling... haha, even an old security officer like me finds it cruel."

"On the contrary, if you tell us, we can help you end this pain right away."

"Even..." Uncle Ba paused deliberately and then said: "If you cooperate well, we can't help you cultivate a body and let you live again."

Brian's eyes were filled with emotions.
