Old Tang fainted.
Having lost the power of Taoism, the pain caused by the amputated finger was beyond the limit that ordinary people could endure. Coupled with the excessive blood loss, Old Tang was leaning on his seat, his face pale.
Li Liang slowly sat down and shook his finger at the mirror wall beside him.
After a while, Mizuno and K walked in.
"Mr. Li Liang," Mizuno held up a wet towel with both hands.
Li Liang took the towel, held it in his hand, and said calmly: "Bandage his wound."
Mizuno nodded and called in the executioner waiting outside the door.
The little executioner took out the medicine and gauze from the box on the side. He first gave Old Tang an injection, and then quickly treated the wound. His movements were extremely skillful, but he inadvertently showed a hint of fear.
Fear of Li Liang.
As a person who understands "pain" very well, the executioner has entertained all kinds of people. Most of them are soft-hearted, but naturally there are also hard-hearted people. However, it only took three seconds to make a guy who was as hard as a rock despair to the point where he thought he could not Do it.
There is a limit to physical pain. As long as the victim crosses that threshold, the effect of torture will become smaller and smaller. Li Liang directly destroyed Old Tang's will in another way that ordinary people cannot understand.
The unknown is scary.
Mizuno and K were equally silent. During the occasional eye contact, K gave Mizuno a hint to keep silent.
No matter what meaning Mizuno interpreted from the instructions of the Presbyterian Council, K had witnessed Old Tang's strange abilities with his own eyes, and he knew even more clearly that when he defeated Old Tang, the "magic weapon" used by "Father" Li Liang to exorcise demons was only a three-and-a-half dollar magic weapon. Thermos cup.
The room was quiet except for the faint sound of the executioner bandaging.
Li Liang leaned on the chair and never stood up.
It's not that he deliberately put on a mysterious posture, but... he couldn't stand up.
A strong sense of dizziness was washing over his mind.
As expected, it is very difficult to forcibly reverse other people's Taoist techniques.
The reason why it was successful this time was that Old Tang's Taoism was only used to control the Horcruxes, and the necromantic magic released by the Horcruxes was the main attack method. Therefore, there were not many spirits in Old Tang's body, and most of the spirits were in the body. In the Horcrux.
If the movement of the spirit is simply compared to the rotation of water in a container, it is relatively simple to slightly disturb the order of the water. For example, he can interrupt Kem's spellcasting. However, the larger the container, the more water it contains, and it will be difficult to completely destroy the rotation of the water. Difficult. As for scooping out the water directly, it is naturally even more difficult.
Old Tang's Taoist foundation was at best a small bowl half filled with water, but it still brought him strong sequelae.
Li Liang clutched the towel and pretended to be thoughtful, but in fact he was trying his best to hide his weakness at the moment.
The so-called loyalty of K and Mizuno to the Presbyterian Church behind him is more of a cooperation based on trade-offs. If you want to mobilize them smoothly in the future, you must not let go of this kind of overpowering moment.
"Uh, do you need to wake him up?" After the executioner finished bandaging, his eyes turned on Shui Ye's face, followed his boss's eyes, and stopped on Li Liang's face.
"Um."
The executioner nodded, gave Old Tang another injection, quickly packed up his things and left the room.
Mizuno and K looked at each other and were about to leave.
"You guys go next door and listen together to what Old Tang has to say."
Li Liang smiled and inadvertently wiped the sweat from his forehead with a towel.
In future actions, K and Mizuno will eventually know about the psychic, so there is no need to hide it.
A few minutes later.
Old Tang woke up, breathing heavily and hanging his head dejectedly.
"Aren't you curious how I found you?" The dizziness subsided slightly, but Li Liang's voice still sounded tired.
Old Tang did not answer, but raised his head and asked hoarsely: "What is chaos?"
"What do you think?"
"god?"
Li Liang smiled and said nothing.
Old Tang stopped talking and stared blankly at the Horcrux on his lapel.
"Wancheng chess, also known as international chess in ancient times, has an opening method called the queen's pawn abandonment," Li Liang said with a smile. "By abandoning the queen's flank pawns in exchange for a position in the middle of the chess game, one can gain an advantage in the situation."
Old Tang was stunned for a moment and his breathing became rapid.
for a long time.
He finally calmed down, licked his dry lips, and said, "Let me go."
Li Liang shook his fingers.
After a while, K walked into the room, untied the iron rope that bound Old Tang, and left a pack of cigarettes and a glass of water.
Old Tang rubbed his neck, leaned back on the chair, lit a cigarette, and said with lowered eyes:
"I know what you want to ask, why are you being monitored? It's simple. Opening the 'new world' requires fuel, and people like you are the fuel."
"What is the new world?"
"A kind of...artifact brought by Zhuos can transform our universe into a place full of spirituality like the spiritual world," Old Tang slowly exhaled a puff of smoke. Even though he was reduced to this, when he said this, The arrogance of overlooking all sentient beings still flashed in his eyes, "When the new world comes, the technology Xi'an has mastered will be insignificant in front of the power of the spirit. We, the psychics, will become the masters of mankind and lead mankind to transcend the confinement of the body. , until ascending.”
Li Liang couldn't hide his inner shock. He leaned forward and said hurriedly: "Zhuos? Did Zhuos bring it?"
"...Yes," Old Tang frowned, obviously confused when Li Liang heard the news. The focus of shock was not on the spiritual world or overthrowing Xi'an, but on Zhuos.
In the next room, Mizuno blinked, turned around and asked, "What does the spiritual world mean?"
K snorted and said angrily: "How would I know."
"Zhuos..."
Li Liang took a deep breath, took out a cigarette from the table next to him and lit it. His expression was nervous, and the hand holding the cigarette even trembled slightly.
Transforming the earth into a spiritual world is not scary. What is scary is what if the psychic is deceived?
Zhuosi is a powerful family, and the reason why the powerful people are superior is that the four largest subsidiaries are the four largest subsidiaries of Xi'an. In other words, Zhuosi may want to replace Xi'an, but how can he give up the existing social structure? Leave your future to a bunch of psychics hiding in the sewers of downtown?
Even if there are indeed people among the top leaders of the Dros family who have mastered the power of spirits, as long as Xi'an is replaced and the Dros people move to the spiritual world by themselves, it will be over. Spiritual beings are still just tools to be exploited, to be manipulated at will.
Moreover, he was not sure whether Zhuosi had a "new world", but he knew very well that Zhuosi had something similar to an artifact - "condensation".
It is written in "Learning Magic from Scratch" that the actual effect of 'condensation' is to aggregate spirits within a diameter of 250,000 light-years in a very short time under the physical rules of the basic world, change the nature of the spirits, and transform them into The solid crystallizes and becomes a crystal nucleus.
Does destruction count as transformation?
Li Liang suddenly remembered something and asked in a daze: "Where did your spirit come from? Did you accumulate it?"
"Yeah," Old Tang nodded.
Unexpectedly, Li Liang just breathed a sigh of relief and heard Old Tang continue, "A small part is from the 'New World'."
"..."
Some of these stupid psychics must have realized that there is something wrong with Zhuosi, but they are greedy for the power of spirits, are lucky, and want to take advantage of the situation.
Li Liang subconsciously turned his head and looked in a certain direction.
Now, he knew what Li Xiaobao was hiding.
Dros, damn, and the soul core.
