Chapter 92 Lieque and Baiju

The risk of telling one's secrets to Lieque is of course not limited to the possibility of being blocked from obtaining information in the future. Devouring the souls of the people one kills sounds very evil in itself.

, and then thinking about my dark history of feeding the people I killed to other people, I just wrote the words "evil heretic" on my forehead.

Seeing me admit it directly, Lie Que's eyes became even more serious, "When did you start devouring other people's souls?"

"Old Bones was the first one," I said.

He then asked: "Hasn't it happened before?"

I shook my head, "Never."

"Really... So, how do you solve the problem of memory pollution?" His tone relaxed, "Absorbing so many other people's memories, it is impossible not to have an impact on your own personality."

I selectively told the truth, "The Siren Blade can filter out most unnecessary information for me and only show the part I need."

"Well... because the memory is stored in the weapon, the weapon functions like an electronic archive. Can the corresponding information be retrieved based on keywords..." He thought deeply, and then asked me, "You

How do you feel about your own behavior?”

"At least I didn't violate the secret law." According to the hunter, I am now considered a member of the legal camp. Although I am not interested in the factions within the Security Bureau, even if I am just a law enforcement warlock, I must at least respect myself.

I have a rough idea of ​​what laws I follow. So I still read the hidden laws roughly.

In fact, I had looked up the detailed information of Bai Ju, a super criminal, in the archives of the Security Bureau long before this. However, compared with the information reported by Liekou, it still lacked a lot of vivid color.

That year, Li Que was forty-three years old and Bai Ju was twenty.

——

Lieque and I sat down in a roadside teahouse. He continued to tell me about the past, and I gradually learned more about Baiju.

He glanced at the sky, as if reminiscing, and then said surprisingly: "The first time I saw the Kraken, I remember it was in 14 years."

"There are people among law enforcement warlocks who are more extreme than you. If you think that as long as you are in the legal camp, you must be very rigid, you are totally wrong. Against warlock criminals who have no taboos, rigidly following the rules will only endanger yourself.

Approaching a dead end. As long as we don't violate the laws of secrecy, we never mind using some 'cunning' means." He said, "Your precious information, too, cannot be obtained without using special means.

"

He asked: "Why?"

"You're talking as if it's not dead yet and can still do something more," I said.

"I can't let that hand be used for ulterior purposes by people with ulterior motives." While I came up with a high-sounding reason, I looked at my heart. Is this really just like this? Although this reason is indeed in line with my heart,

But my real motivation is more appropriate to say that it is my strong love and desire for "it". Even if it is a hand that cannot move, I cannot let go.

"No, the Kraken is dead. I am absolutely convinced of this. But who says that the dead wreckage has no ability to confuse people? You are the evidence now." He said, "After it dies, normally,

You will automatically dispel the charm it exerts on your brain within a few days and realize what a hateful evil thing it is. But now you are still obsessed with it. I originally suspected that this was just your acting skills after you woke up.

You want to show the people around you that you have never been brainwashed, just like you once advocated. But you are still trying to chase the hand of the siren. This cannot be explained by acting alone. It can only explain it.

The charm still exists. This charm may have been weakened by most of its death, but there is still a part that cannot be taken away even by death."

Unfortunately, Bai Ju's worldview as a person has long been formed. At the same time, he is also quite stubborn. Even when he is learning spells, he refuses to compromise on the way he understands the world.

I have no way of knowing whether Lieque regretted this incident today, and there was no clue from his expressionless face. He continued to narrate - after he rescued Bai Ju, he soon discovered

Bai Ju has the talent to become a sorcerer. Not only has it, but it is extraordinary.

"Won't you ban me from continuing to use this ability?" I asked.

However, Lieque called Bai Ju back then an ordinary person, which was actually unfair.

Lie Que stared at me with a knife-edge gaze, and then talked about another matter, "I have read the confession of Qiao Licao's brother about the Bairi Town Mist Incident. In that incident, you met the sword from Tianhe City.

You are planning to surrender your life to him, why?"

"If you kill someone, you must pay for it with your life...that's what I thought at the time." I said.

"Continue to talk about your story. If I'm not mistaken, you still have an obsession with the sea monster, and you even want to recover its severed hand from Bai Ju's hands. Is that true?" He asked straightforwardly.

"This starts from a long time ago." He said, "I told you before that Bai Ju was a law enforcement warlock of the Security Bureau before he was called a dark scientist. I have had the experience of working with him.

."

After hearing this, I immediately had a strong feeling that I would probably come into contact with very important information in the future.

Lieque commented on Bai Ju's talent with his own vision and knowledge: Just like Qingniao, if Bai Ju receives a warlock education from an early age, it is not impossible to become a main level warlock even when he is still in elementary school.

But if this kind of thing happened in the process of dealing with the demon warlock, it would be a different story.

Although Bai Ju was still at the age when he should have been in college, he had already become famous in the scientific community. If you go back and read the newspapers of that year, you should still be able to see reports about him. In the reports, he was a genius with a bright future in our country.

As a biological scientist, people had high hopes for him, and everyone believed that he could make great achievements in the scientific world. However, one day, he was involved in a dangerous secret incident, and his life hung on the line.

Due to my "guilty conscience", I checked carefully to see if there was any prohibition on devouring souls in the secret laws, but it seemed that there was no specific description anywhere.

"In fact, I not only worked with Bai Ju, but to be more precise, I invited Bai Ju to the Security Bureau." He slowly recounted the story between himself and Bai Ju, "Back then... I remember

It was back in 2006, when Bai Ju was just an ordinary person. He was accidentally involved in a secret incident, and I rescued him. That was the first time I met him."

"Baiju... was it born in Baiju's laboratory? Eight years ago?" I asked.

"Although it's not good from my point of view, there is no objective evidence in the information I sent you. It's possible that it was all nonsense. Shouldn't you doubt it again?" I asked.

I took the opportunity to put forward a different view, "Since I have not been brainwashed, it is natural that your expectations are not in line with reality."

Seeing that he couldn't convince me, he sighed, "Originally, I didn't plan to talk too much about the Kraken with you, or in other words, I hope you can gradually forget about it in the future, and stay as far away from things related to it as possible. But.

Since you are so stubborn, I will tell you more about it."

"You did." I nodded.

Even the description "extraordinary" seems pale.

"I will release you just because I believe in your character. The possibility of you lying to me about this matter is not even one in ten thousand." He said decisively, and continued, "But

What you said is not unreasonable. Your intelligence is not enough to convince the public, so I will personally advise the headquarters again. As long as there are clear goals and a large number of manpower from the local security bureaus, the investigation will definitely speed up and provide objective evidence.

It will be available soon."

"But you didn't take the initiative to find other victims to pay for your life, right? In other words, you actually didn't want to die. It's okay, I'm not condemning you, and you don't need to have so much guilt. The one who is at fault is the siren, you

You are just a victim." He said, "But if you are brainwashed by it again and become the devil you were in the past, then I will have no choice but to kill you with my own hands."

"As a law enforcer, I cannot punish you based on the law; but as your superior, I still have the power to restrain you." He said, "I hope you... No, I order you, from now on you can only devour sinners.

The soul. As for the soul outside of human beings, it’s up to you.”

"It" contains the magical charm of a female body that is a product of mimicry. I had expected something of this magnitude. What I really care about are other things, "Why did it appear in Bai Ju's laboratory? And...

…Why are you there?”

I said without hesitation: "Yes."

"Where did you see it?" I asked.

Even so, his level as a warlock is still improving by leaps and bounds. In less than ten years, he has become a master in the field of secret knowledge, putting even Lie Que to shame. And in terms of strength, he has even reached the peak

Enough to fight alongside Lieque. To put it less seriously, his progress is as fast as turning on a cheating device.

At the critical moment, Li Que appeared in front of him like a divine soldier descending from heaven, saving him from the fire and water.

"Probably even Bai Ju doesn't know when and where the Kraken was born." He said, "The Kraken at that time was completely different from the Kraken in your memory. It didn't have an inhuman appearance, it just had a head with a

A monster with a huge body and an extremely terrifying appearance. However, when I saw it next to you again, I immediately recognized it, or I felt it. There was no doubt that it was the terrifying monster from eight years ago.

Even if it has changed beyond recognition, I will never recognize the mistake."

He said another very surprising piece of information, "Bai Ju's laboratory."

Which one is the true nature of a person, the spiritual body or the physical body, is still a matter of debate in the world of magicians. The definition of a person's spiritual body in the secret laws is more similar to the resources and wealth possessed by the person than the person itself.

. Generally speaking, if things develop to the point of swallowing up a person's spiritual body, then the person must have been killed. This is undoubtedly a serious "seeking money and killing", and of course it must be punished as a crime.

Discuss.

One or four years...that is to say, eight years ago?

I was stunned.

Only then did I realize that because of what I said, a lot of manpower and material resources might be put into action. I even felt restless.

"That's just emotional excitement," I said.

"The Secret Law does not specifically prohibit the devouring of human souls, and as a law enforcement warlock, in the process of dealing with demon warlocks, even the use of extreme methods will be allowed to a limited extent. What's more, it is not you who performs the devouring.

, but your weapon. What is swallowed is not the complete spirit body, but the fragments of the spirit body. In other words, it is the soul that was already scattered." At this point, he changed the subject, "But,

Even if you did not violate the secret laws, what you did still seriously violated the ethics and morals of the sorcerers."

"Even if you can find a logical form to explain your so-called love, it doesn't mean that it has not charmed you. It's just that her charm is entangled in your mind in a logical form." He said, "Once you let it go,

If you come into contact with its hand, the remaining charm may be further activated. In fact, the last time you saw that hand, your state became very wrong, didn't it? "

Moreover, even after becoming a warlock, he did not give up the path of a biological scientist. But what is regrettable is that because he gradually combined his knowledge with secret knowledge, he was eventually regarded as a heretical scientist by the normal academic community.

His reputation also plummeted. Not only that, even the young wife he married in those years, who was also a scientist, expressed strong confusion about him, and even chose to divorce him and move away with his young daughter. At that time

Bai Ju is only one step away from the "appearance" that all warlocks dream of, but his family is falling apart. This incident seems to have brought an extremely heavy blow to him.

He even temporarily put aside all his research and practice and wandered around in frustration. Later, he told Lieque that it was at this time that he encountered something "indescribable."

At that time, he and Lieque were both working as law enforcement warlocks in Shangshen City, a big city near the ocean. On the black coast full of gravel, he walked slowly while watching the rising tide.

Luo. As he walked, he suddenly noticed something quite huge in the distance. At first, he thought it was a stranded ship. When he walked over and took a closer look, he realized that the thing turned out to be a living thing.

It was a huge, unknown creature with a body length of more than 20 meters, a strange shape, and motionless.
