Just as he was about to touch the necklace,
a sudden change occurred—
With a “whoosh” sound!
A thin piece of rust enveloped the white jade, which instantly flew out of the coffin, traveling several tens of ters before falling behind the man into a patch of shadows.
There was a second person here!
The next mont, the glow inside the tomb lit up again, and the man could clearly see the young face near the stone wall, playing with the ancient white jade.
His expression beca exceedingly shocked and ugly.
“Why…
are you so surprised to see ?
Do you perhaps recognize ?”
Gu Shen weighed the white jade expressionlessly.
He squinted his eyes, sizing up the unfamiliar face before him.
From the mont the power was cut…
he had realized sothing was wrong.
The authority used in this base was an independent closed-loop; even Chu Ling would need to exert considerable effort to break in.
This indicated that these folks were very careful about security!
How could there possibly be a rookie mistake like “power cut”?!
In this base, there was a second person hiding…
who had arrived earlier than him, and most likely had been eyeing the “ancient tomb” for so ti.
In fact, when Gu Shen saw the trident emblem of the Late Bell Church, an inexplicable sense of guided intuition welled up within him.
He thought of the night he once spent at the Freedom Church in the Dadu District.
A crazed fanatic, who had established the “Believer Organization” in Da Du, was killed far away in the “Southern Continent”…
The cross-continental Federation Governnt’s Investigative Departnt was in charge of relaying the case’s findings to Mr.
Shu, who then relayed them back to him.
The chain of evidence was conclusive.
The “monster” was killed within a church in the Southern Continent, personally witnessed by a priest and a nun.
At that ti, Gu Shen thought it was all over.
But upon seeing this man’s face…
Gu Shen knew it was all still ongoing.
He sighed deeply, his fingers caressing the snow-white “jade”.
Fate is indeed a peculiar thing…
there are things you thought you would never see a second ti.
Yet, the reunion ca so swiftly.
Not just with people, but with objects as well.
He pulled off the red cord, clasped the “white jade” in his hand, and his voice grew low, “Think carefully, have we t before at so point?”
“I…
don’t understand what you’re talking about.”
The man cloaked in the black robe of the Late Bell Church simply squinted his eyes, giving a cold response, “Friend, we both clearly know what each other is doing, and the guys outside are not easy to ss with—it’d be troubling if we stirred things up.”
Gu Shen completely ignored this statent.
“Since your mory isn’t too good, then let help you recollect…”
He spoke mildly, offering a reminder, “Last November.”
The priest fell completely silent.
“Alright then…
It seems you don’t rember , so how about this bullet?”
The arc light of the Truth Ruler filled the entire tomb as if it were daylight.
Gu Shen raised the Truth Sniper.
“Bengxue” was already chambered.
A familiar scene had once played out last November in Freedom Hall.
A trendous sense of crisis descended.
With the sniper rifle pressed close against his head, the man’s expression was very ugly.
A streak of Blood Fire appeared on his forehead, soon flooding into a surge of crimson.
“Rember now, the feeling of being shattered by my bullet?”
As Gu Shen looked at the man before him, he asked emotionlessly, “What should I call you…
Zhou Yu…
Ye Ningqiu…
Xiao…
”
“Or perhaps, so vile being that can’t be killed?”
…
…
(As this segnt of the plot is quite important, I spent a long ti organizing it, starting from a little after four in the afternoon until over three in the morning.
I will revise it again tomorrow.)
