Chapter 520 Arrested
When Meng Xiang regained consciousness, he felt excruciating pain all over his body, as if he were being cut by a knife. If he twisted his body a little, the pain would go deep into his bones.
"Where is this?" Meng Xiang was deeply puzzled. He tilted his head slightly and saw that the room was filled with medical equipment. Several wires were attached to his body. There was a heart monitor on the side, making a beeping sound. The surroundings smelled pungently of medicine and a smell of disinfectant.
Is this a hospital? Meng Xiang glanced at his body and was shocked. His left arm was broken and now in a cast, and his right arm and both legs were locked with cold and thick steel chains. Even around his waist, there was a steel chain as thick as a finger. The other end of the chain was naturally embedded in the bed, with only a gap of more than 10 centimeters. Meng Xiang could only twist slightly, but could not sit up.
"Hey..." The door opened, and a doctor in a white robe and a rather young nurse came in hurriedly. Through the open door, Meng Xiang noticed at that moment that there were two armed soldiers standing behind the door, staring at him steadily, with the guns in their hands moving slightly, as if they would draw their guns and shoot at any time.
"Doctor, what's going on?" Meng Xiang asked pitifully. Although his current situation did not make him worry, his serious injuries had not yet healed. He did not want to break free, and subconsciously put himself in the patient's position.
"I'm sorry, I'm just a doctor. I don't know anything else." The doctor and the nurse quickly pulled back Meng Xiang's blanket and carefully examined his injuries. Their faces became more and more surprised, as if they had seen a ghost. They murmured, "It's terrible. In just half a day, the fracture has healed 60% and all the injuries have scarred. Your metabolism is 20 times faster than that of an ordinary person."
Meng Xiang didn't know how to answer.
"Doctor, how is the patient?" A majestic voice came from the intercom.
The doctor picked up the microphone, walked out of the room alone, and said, "This is a wonderful creature. Its metabolism is faster than we expected. Now it can leave the i ward..."
The nurse was busy wiping Meng Xiang's face. Meng Xiang couldn't help but ask, "Miss, what happened? Why did I forget everything?" He lied, because only in this way could he get some useful information.
The nurse was only in her 20s, and her expression didn't seem as solemn as the doctor's. She helped Meng Xiang clean his wounds while saying, "I'm sorry, I don't know much either. I only know that you were brought in by the military, and your injuries were very serious. There was hardly a piece of intact flesh and blood on your body, but you've recovered to this extent. No wonder they locked you up like a monster. Are you an alien?"
Meng Xiang smiled foolishly, probably knowing what was going on. Kej went... % Keju apparently lost consciousness on the battlefield, and was rescued by the soldiers who came. However, because the area of several kilometers had become a ruin and he was the only one alive, the soldiers did not dare to be careless, and found that his injuries were abnormal, so they imprisoned him.
Meng Xiang suddenly realized that something seemed to be missing. He looked at his left hand and asked in surprise, "Hey, where is my ring?"
"Ring? I don't know. You can ask your superior later." The nurse finished washing and walked out of the ward.
The ring, of course, refers to the storage ring. Although there is a space bag, Meng Xiang's Diamond Axe and Haotian Mirror are all in his storage ring. He looked around again, and the Tianjing mother and child swords were gone.
Meng Xiang fought with Xuantian Xie Emperor, but he did not put away the Tianjing mother and child swords before losing consciousness. Maybe they were looted by the soldiers.
At this moment, the door opened again, and a middle-aged man in military uniform walked in steadily, followed by two armed soldiers.
"Hello, before you speak, please take a look at the images in the video recorder." One of the soldiers at the back held up a notebook and played a video. It was the video recorded by the street camera when Meng Xiang and Sun Yan had just escaped from home and were confronting Xuantian Xie Emperor. The attack by Xuantian Xie Emperor and Xianshui as well as their escape were all recorded.
Meng Xiang suddenly realized that it seemed that the soldiers already knew that he was involved in the sabotage and listed him as a dangerous person.
"Can you explain it? Who are you? Why do you have such powerful strength? Why did you destroy that town? Do you know? Because of your destruction, at least hundreds of thousands of people died." The commander said with a dark face.
It was not difficult for Meng Xiang to escape at this time, but he had to find the ring and the Tianjing swords. His mind raced, and he said calmly: "If I say I am an alien, would you believe me? If I say that such a huge destruction incident had nothing to do with me, would you believe it?"
"Please tell the truth." The officer's face became more and more angry, and the two soldiers behind him even raised their spears.
"Did you keep the secret ring on my body and the two swords in my hands?" Meng Xiang immediately tested.
"Yes, is that the reason why you obtained strange powers?" The officer was a little curious, and even showed a hint of greed in his eyes.
The power to destroy a town in the blink of an eye was something that anyone could not help but want to take for themselves.
"You can say that, but I am the only one who knows how to use that power." Meng Xiang continued to lie.
"Could it be that the riot that happened in the neighboring city yesterday was also caused by you?"
"No, but I can only tell you that there are several people in this world who have powers similar to mine."
The officer's expression became more and more serious, and he seemed to be hesitant.
"If you let me go, I will tell you everything I know, including how to use that power?" Meng Xiang was very smart and he saw through his superior's thoughts at once.
"You go out first." The officer said to the soldier behind him. The soldier saluted, hurriedly left the ward and closed the door.
"Tell me, as long as it is proven that what you said is true, I promise to let you go." The officer asked with a hint of joy.
Meng Xiang knew that his superior had taken the bait. He was just trying to get some ideas out of the way. Regardless of whether his superior had a righteous heart or not, the method of using the power he had obtained would benefit him in every way. Even if he contributed such a powerful force to the country, this achievement should not be underestimated.
Meng Xiang had an awkward look on his face, as if he was struggling over whether to tell the secret, but his superior's calm face couldn't suppress his curiosity.
"This ring is a door to another dimension. Although it cannot be seen on the surface, it contains technological power that transcends this world. The two swords are supernatural treasures. Together with the ring, they are enough to destroy the world." Meng Xiang's words were three-quarters true and seven-quarters false, but they did make the superior excited.
"Is it that simple?" The officer was a little confused.
"Of course not. To open the space-time gate of the ring, you need to know the password. Moreover, the use of the two swords and the ring must follow specific rules, otherwise they will be destroyed. Bring them to me and I will teach you how to use them. Don't worry, I won't touch them."
"No." The commander was not a fool. Since he knew that Meng Xiang possessed enough power to destroy a small town, he would certainly not put the weapon in front of him.
"No? Then forget it." Meng Xiang simply covered his head with the quilt, pretending to go to sleep, and ignored his superior.
The officer hesitated slightly, then turned and left the ward.
With the quilt covering his head, even if there were surveillance cameras in the ward, he couldn't see what Meng Xiang was doing. But after the conversation just now, he was sure that his ring and the sky crystal were safe and sound, and would not be thrown away as garbage by the authorities.
However, it is not easy to retrieve the ring and the crystal. Capture the officer and torture him? Although most people are spineless, once the relationship is torn and the officer refuses to yield, the ring may never be found.
Meng Xiang needs help.
His left arm was broken, so he was not handcuffed. Moreover, the fracture had healed 60%. Although he could not use force yet, he could already take items out of the space bag.
Meng Xiang took out his phone, which he, Sun Yan and Alisha had bought when they parted ways. He turned on the phone and saw Sun Yan's number, and he felt sad.
"Hello, Arisa?"
"Meng Xiang? Great, I finally got in touch with you. Where are you and Sun Yan?"
"Sun Yan... is dead."
Silence, sad silence.
After a while, Arisa said, "Nakamura Koji and I are at the ruins where you fought with Xuantian Xiedi, but the area of several kilometers has been closed by the military, so we can't get any news about you. Where are you now? We'll meet you now."
"Where?" Meng Xiang carefully observed the equipment around the ward and finally found the name of the hospital.
"I'm at the xx hospital." Meng Xiang briefly recounted what happened, and then said, "I must get my storage ring and the sky crystal back, but I don't want to cause a big commotion. Besides, the ring is too small. If it is lost during the commotion, it will be a loss. Do you think there is any way to follow the commander or investigate secretly?"
"Can't cause a commotion? This..." Arisa was silent for a moment, but Nakamura Koji picked up the phone and said, "There is a way. As long as that person knows exactly where the storage is, I can control him, make him my puppet, and then make him hand over the storage ring and weapon obediently."
"Really? Thank you so much." Meng Xiang knew that Nakamura Koji and Arisa were both powerful people in the world of reincarnation, and naturally they had incredible skills. Since Nakamura Koji said it so confidently, he must have his methods, so Meng Xiang was relieved.
