Light!

Chapter 153: A secret that will lead to certain death if known

Views:

After hearing what Xu Le said, Wang Shu was silent for a moment, then lit a cigarette for himself.

"Why did Brother Shu start smoking?"

"I smoked whenever I wanted to. There's no reason. Are you asking so many questions because you're afraid that I might become deformed? You're pretty careful."

Xu Le sensed that Wang Shu was having emotional problems, and he quickly said:

"You can't be careless. Your current state is very special. The energy of the Tree of Light will allow you to attract the strange black tide.

I don't have any information on hand, and Gu Jianuo is dead.

Without any information, I can't be sure whether your strange state of attracting things only occurs during the Black Tide or whether it also takes effect on weekdays."

As for the current situation, Wang Shu himself didn't understand exactly what was going on.

After waking up, a golden and bright energy awakened in his body.

He had seen this kind of energy before, from those who had used the Light Attraction Potion before.

He also had some guesses about this situation, but the only one who really knew the specific reason was Xu Le.

“I have fought with monsters since I went to Tianrui Lifeng. As of now, I should not have any extra attributes that attract monsters.

But what was going on with me at that time?"

Xu Le felt a little relieved when he heard Wang Shu say that he did not attract strange attributes under normal circumstances.

If Wang Shu would attract monsters under normal circumstances, then it would be really over.

“You were dying, or already dead, and I had no means of curing you.

In a desperate situation, I had no choice but to use a rule that Gu Jianuo and I discovered at the same time.

It's called the Weird Formula."

"Weird formula?"

“Red Moon + Ancient Sound + Heart Energy, when these three energies are injected in a specific ratio, they will cause a person to enter a rather special state of distortion.

This distorted state may cause you to become a monster directly.

However, within a certain period of time, this distortion can be barely controlled.

The situation was too critical at that time. In order to save you, I could only shoot two Light Attractions into your body and then inject mental energy into your body.

I don’t know how you survived afterwards.”

“I see.”

For Wang Shu, the battle that night was as clear as a movie scene that was constantly replaying.

Xiong Zemo's power was too oppressive, and they had no way to fight against it.

He still remembers that deep feeling of despair even now.

"How did you do it in the end? Did you defeat him?"

“No, Xiong Zemo is too strong. I tried everything but I could only kill one of his puppets.

Later, after I came into contact with the puppeteer, I discovered that he might have more than one puppet, and killing one puppet would not even be a serious injury to him.

We still lost, and lost completely."

Hearing Xu Le admit his failure, Wang Shu also nodded.

"What's next? What are you going to do?"

"First of all, it's your problem."

Xu Le looked at Wang Shu.

"My problem? I'm fine now, and I don't attract any weird things anymore."

Wang Shu was a little confused. For now, he felt that his condition was pretty good.

Although he was a little half-dead in the previous few days, his body recovered as the days went by.

He also possessed even more powerful strength than before, but he had no specific tests on the power of light.

Firstly, there was no subject for testing, and secondly, he had not met anyone trustworthy in Tianrui Lifeng.

Hearing what Wang Shu said, Xu Le shook his head.

"You feel like you're okay, but that's just what you think, not that you're really okay."

"What's the meaning?"

“I don’t know what’s on the lighthouse that’s attracting the black tide, but based on the information I have at hand and the situation during the last black tide of the golden tree people, I can see that.

If you can’t find a reasonable solution in the next two months, you will be in trouble next time during the Kuroshio, or even die.”

Xu Le's tone was a bit harsh, but Wang Shu didn't show any particularly intense reaction after hearing it. Instead, he was very indifferent.

"Then what can I do? The captain is dead, Team 6 is gone, and dying at the hands of a monster is the fate of a Night's Watchman. It's not a bad thing.

On every anniversary of my death... you just need to send me a bouquet of flowers and burn some incense."

Talking about this, Xu Le felt inexplicably angry. When he was no longer angry, he took a few pieces of meat from Wang Shu's bowl.

"I'll give you a hammer flower. After you die, your grave will grow grass anyway."

Wang Shu looked at his noodles which had no meat on them, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

"Arguing doesn't stop you from picking up meat, does it?"

"I saved your life, so why do you have a problem with me picking up two pieces of meat from you?"

"You got two pieces?"

"I've already eaten it anyway, so what? You're going to hit me?"

"Forget it, just eat it."

Wang Shu sighed again.

Xu Le felt annoyed when he heard him talking like this. He sounded like an old man who was about to die.

No, some old men are still optimistic and go to the small garden to watch square dancing every day.

"Brother Shu."

"Um?"

"Don't you want revenge?"

"What's your reason for revenge? Didn't you say that the captain has fulfilled his long-cherished wish? You all survived, which is good."

"If we didn't have some tricks, we would have died long ago. That night, Xiong Zemo chopped us into pieces.

In this case, it is not too much for me to avenge the death of my father, right?"

Revenge is actually very far away, but Xu Le has no choice. He doesn't want Wang Shu to become decadent.

So, we must always find a target for him!

If a warrior loses his spirit and has no new goals, then he is really doomed.

Wang Shu looked at the noodles in front of him, thought for a while, and then nodded.

"What do you want to do?"

"Save you first."

"Save me? Can I still be saved?"

"I didn't have it originally, and now... I may not have it either, but I will find a way."

Wang Shu glanced at Xu Le, who was frowning. He didn't know whether he had figured something out or just didn't want Xu Le to be busy for nothing. He asked:

"What do you need me to do for you?"

"Money and people."

Wang Shu nodded.

"knew."

Xu Le finished his noodles and stood up:

"Give me a contact number and I'll contact you tomorrow. Now I have to think of a solution to your physical problem."

"good."

After explaining everything, Xu Le left directly. He did not let Wang Shu follow him.

There is no point in going back and doing research on my own.

Wang Shu is very capable, and after being given a clear goal, he can make better self-judgments.

After all, he was already the captain of Night's Watch 6.

After Xu Le left the Law Enforcer Hall, he returned to the studio immediately.

When he came back, he found Levis and Yi Xiaoya waiting for him at the door, and Ding Ke was there too.

"Oh, the handsome guy is back, you should feel more relieved, ton ton ton!"

After Yi Xiaoya finished speaking, she began to drink wine in big gulps.

Xu Le recognized the wine, it was probably about 25% alcohol, but it was outrageous for her to drink it like that.

And it was unclear whether what she said just now was directed to Levis or Ding Ke.

When Ding Ke saw Xu Le coming back, he twisted his tail slightly.

He looked as if he was saying, "I'm going back."

Levis was much more sincere and walked over and patted Xu Le on the shoulder.

"well enough?"

"It's not a big problem, except that we didn't make any money. I'm afraid our research and development plans will have to be postponed."

Levis nodded.

"That's all we can do. Did you get the fruit?"

"I got it."

"That's good." Levis said with a smile.

He didn't ask Xu Le for it, nor did he even ask what the fruit was. He still cared about himself. In terms of character, Levis is really good.

Returning to his room, Xu Le hurriedly got some food for Ding Ke.

But this guy looked like he didn't want to eat. Xu Le guessed that Yi Xiaoya had given it some special treatment.

"Play by yourself for a while, I have something important to do."

Xu Le greeted Ding Ke and hurried into the realm of the mother tree.

As soon as Xu Le entered, he heard the same sound of hammer hitting as before, and he knew he had come to the right place.

Chi Xiao was forging her prosthetic limbs again.

This time he came to the Mother Tree Realm to find Chi Xiao.

Xu Le hurriedly ran towards the mother tree, and Chi Xiao sensed Xu Le's arrival early this time.

The molten iron flowing on the ground immediately rushed towards her, forming a suit of armor that was big enough to cover her body.

She stared at Xu Le who was running towards her with an unfriendly look.

"Why are you here again?"

"Um, I should be able to come, right?"

Chi Xiao frowned. Xu Le could come, but she was just uncomfortable with him wearing such armor.

"Are you here to practice?"

Chi Xiao had stopped what he was doing, the flame in his hand gradually went out, and then he moved his prosthetic limb.

Xu Le pondered for a while, thinking about how to correctly express to Chi Xiao what he wanted to ask.

Because the current situation is a bit complicated.

"I came here today specifically to look for Lord Chi Xiao. I have a rather serious and urgent question to ask you."

Xu Le's attitude was serious, even a little solemn.

This was somewhat different from his usual self, and Chi Xiao became curious about what could have made this kid so concerned.

"Go ahead."

"Well, this question is very complicated. It is composed of many questions. Are you busy? Can you listen to me slowly?"

"Can."

Seeing that Chi Xiao had no objection, Xu Le finally began to ask formally:

"I have a friend who accidentally ingested the energy of the Lighthouse Golden Tree, and the energy has been lodging in his body and cannot be removed."

Before Xu Le finished speaking, Chi Xiao interrupted:

"The friend you are talking about, isn't it you?"

"No, no, it's really not me. It's a very good friend of mine. Is there any way to solve this situation?"

Chi Xiao pinched his chin and suddenly asked:

“Those Illuminati followers on the upper floors of the lighthouse also eat food that contains the energy of the golden tree.

But normally, they will slowly metabolize the energy and only retain some beneficial substances in the body.

Your friend is unable to expel the power of light from his body. Is it more than just an accidental ingestion?"

Xu Le blinked, then nodded:

"Well, I didn't expect that you couldn't hide these things. He didn't eat it by mistake."

"If you really want to save your friend, you'd better tell me everything about his situation without keeping anything to yourself."

Xu Le nodded without hesitation:

“Okay, he was injured and on the verge of death before, so I injected him with the Light Attraction Potion, which is a potion that infuses light energy into the warrior’s potential.

The man was saved, but his current condition is somewhat special.

Judging from the results last time, the energy of the Golden Tree of Light in the body will attract the monsters of the Black Tide.

I want to know now, is there any way to dispel this energy? To prevent him from being attacked further in the black tide."

After hearing Xu Le mention the Light Attraction Potion, Chi Xiao frowned slightly and said:

"Is he now able to use the light energy of the golden tree, or even transform into a golden tree?"

"I'm not sure about this, but judging from other people's previous experiences, it should be possible."

"Then there's no hope. Just wait to die."

Chi Xiao directly sentenced Wang Shu to death, but this result was definitely not what Xu Le wanted.

"Is there no way to exorcise it?"

“Energy is pollution and distortion, it is what changes the essence of a person’s life, not the dust and disease on the body.

You have driven the Light from him, and he will die as well."

"Is there no solution at all?"

"No." Chi Xiao confirmed again.

Xu Le took a deep breath. He had expected this result, but after hearing Chi Xiao's certainty, he still felt a little pressured.

"Then Lord Chi Xiao, do you know why during the Black Tide, the monsters would actively attack people who possess the energy of the Golden Tree of Light?"

"I know."

"Why?"

"Although I know this, I can't let you know."

Chi Xiao's expressionless face made Xu Le's teeth itch. If I could beat you, I would have...

"What conditions does Lord Chi Xiao need to tell me?"

Xu Le's expression was a little uneasy, and his fists were clenched together.

Seeing him like this, Chi Xiao knew that he didn't understand what he meant, perhaps he didn't express himself clearly.

"Xu Le, this matter is very dangerous. If you know about it, you will definitely die."

"Ah? I'm a very tight-lipped person. I can keep any secret in a box and won't tell anyone even if the grass grows on my grave.

Tell me, I won’t tell anyone else.”

Seeing Xu Le's solemn look, Chi Xiao wanted to laugh, but she still had to maintain the dignity of a master.

"It's not a question of whether you tell it or not. Once you know this, you will definitely die."

"If you know, you will definitely die? What do you mean?"

This time, Xu Le seemed to react a little.

"It means literally, this matter cannot be known by people like you, if you know it, you will definitely die.

Knowing is the cause, and death is the result. This is the ability of some powerful sorcerers, and I am not concealing it on purpose."

After hearing Chi Xiao say this, Xu Le realized it belatedly and felt a little disappointed.

"Then why do you know that?"

"Isn't this easy? I'm quite strong. Even if those people knew that I knew, they wouldn't be able to do anything to me.

But you are different, you are too weak.

Too weak? Well, Xu Le asked helplessly:

"Is it that outrageous?"

“Yes, if you really knew the secret of the lighthouse, even your thoughts, even your casual thoughts, would attract their attention.

Then... you will definitely die."

This time, Chi Xiao’s explanation was relatively clear.

Warlocks who can sense thoughts? Could it be that their abilities are so strong that as long as they have a thought, they will be discovered by these people

Isn’t this too outrageous

"Not even a thought? Not even a thought?"

"You should read more books. You are a Red Moon Warlock yourself, so you should have some understanding of your professional abilities.

Oh, I forgot you are a forbidden warlock. There are not many books for forbidden warlocks to read. How miserable!"

Looking at Chi Xiao's pitying eyes, Xu Le was speechless, but he already knew the reason Chi Xiao mentioned.

If it is the ability of a high-level Red Moon Warlock, then it would be really difficult to deal with.

Is it the ability to interfere with fate? Or is it some kind of information foreknowledge? Information flow reading

"What if this matter is something I discovered by myself?"

"You will be hunted down, or rather, you have already been hunted down once, right?"

Xu Le thought of Xiong Zemo's ruthless extermination of them, and then fell silent.

"I can't even check it myself..."

"Yes, it's not okay to check it yourself. It's best not to get involved in things that are beyond your ability. It will bring disaster to yourself. This is a kind reminder to you."

"Thank you, Lord Chi Xiao, for your advice."

"Have you finished your questions?"

"No." Xu Le shook his head.

It seems that it is not possible to break the effect of the Golden Light Tree on Wang Shu, so we can only take the second path.

"Ask me anything else."

"Guyin has many destiny fruits. Does it mean that new ones will grow only when the person with destiny dies?"

"Yes, what's the matter?"

“Then, will the identity of the man with the destiny of Gu Yinduo be blessed by Gu Yinduo

At least let one person be considered as a member of the Ancient Sound Multi-Faction, like us?"

Xu Le's questions made Chi Xiao feel very strange. Isn't this just like taking off pants to fart

“Yes, we use the power of Gu Yinduo to claim the reward from the Gu Yinduo Mother Tree.

This identity even gives us the talent to eat multiple fruits, as well as the conditions to touch the Son of Ancient Yinduo.

In a sense, we are indeed a multi-camp of Guyin."

Xu Le felt relieved when he received a positive answer.

Moreover, when he heard that Chi Xiao had come into contact with the son of Gu Yinduo, his eyes lit up slightly.

"Has Lord Chi Xiao also come into contact with the Son of Gu Yinduo?"

Hearing Xu Le asking about the son of Gu Yinduo, Chi Xiao's attitude became serious again.

“They are the source of chaos, the embodiment of darkness, and of course, the conduit of power.

When you are strong enough, you will naturally touch the power of the Son of Gu Yinduo. For now, you'd better stay away from them."

Hearing her say this, Xu Le's expression became a little strange.

The existence of the Son of Guyinduo...

He had already met two of them in person, and they didn't seem as scary as Chi Xiao said.

On the contrary, Xu Le felt that Gu Yinduo's sons were all quite easy to get along with.

And give myself a reward.

"I see."

Xu Le nodded. There was an information gap for no apparent reason!

It seems that I don’t need to ask the question that I wanted to ask the most.

This matter can only be decided by yourself.

"Lord Chi Xiao, I have to leave first. We'll talk next time!"

Looking at Xu Le running away in a hurry, Chi Xiao had a strange expression.

She felt that Xu Le was hiding something important in these questions. What was it

After thinking for a while, Chi Xiao shook his head slightly, melted his armor, and began to forge his prosthetic limbs again.

After a space fluctuation, Xu Le returned to the real world.

He took out the box containing the Guyinduo Destiny Fruit.

“The fruit of destiny will grant people the destiny of Gu Yinduo, and at the same time, they will have the opportunity to come into contact with the son of Gu Yinduo.

After eating it, will I become a pawn of the puppet? "

wrong!

"Puppet asked me to give it to Zion's law enforcer officer, Rei.

In other words, Rewi Alley is the puppet's pawn, and the person who eats the fruit of destiny will not be like that."

After pondering for a few seconds, Xu Le took out an Ancient Sound Card.

Black Card-Marionette

"If I didn't do what the puppet said, would she kill me?"

Xu Le felt that his thoughts were becoming more and more dangerous.

Then he pulled out another card.

Black Card-Black Sheep Girl

"Hey!"
