226: Chapter 207: The List 226: Chapter 207: The List “Aren’t you afraid she’ll become desperate and kill you without a second thought?”
“No problem, the previous contract has already set her up.
She should subconsciously consider the consequences of killing me.
This hint, along with her guilt and uneasiness for betraying you, plus the analysis of her personality, there’s a high chance that she will actively find a reason to ‘believe in me.’ Ah, the believer.”
Lu Ping’an, the faithless, sneered at the former devout believer’s struggle and the insecurity and uneasiness after betraying her faith.
Of course, let’s not forget the root cause of making foolish judgments, the “self-abandonment and atonement mentality” hidden in the subconscious.
“Even so, you really dare to bet…” The big cat still couldn’t quite understand Lu Ping’an’s move, she didn’t know why he would take such a big risk just to deceive some resources.
“How can I win this bad hand if I don’t bet?
I want to bluff my way to a chance to play.”
Lu Ping’an didn’t seem to care much, if it didn’t work out, he could still start over after eighteen years, and go back to reading and learning…
if there was something to learn from.
“Contractors cannot lie” seemed like a weakness, but with the advantage of intelligence, it could actually be used as a powerful card.
This card had been played to the extreme, and he’d already achieved his most desired strategic goal.
How long he could keep up the deception and what he could ultimately reap were just bonuses.
His big gamble made sure that he took the initiative in the cooperation with Fang Wen…
if he was just a bystander, it would be difficult to play the “team player.”
“…
Now, just waiting for the moment of detection.”
Everyone was looking forward to the moment when Dragon Yuhe would reveal the truth.
Right now, in the police station where she was being held, at least ten special service teams were on guard, two Rule-Level items were on standby, and there was at least one Sixth-tier lying in wait.
Busting her out of jail?
With only one Sixth-tier and one fourth-tier left?
In reality, the officials were looking forward to them coming forward.
It seemed that at this moment, all they had to do was to force out the ritual process and the clues to the location, and then it would be over…
and the nightmare would end…
“Hum!”
Suddenly, a massive shockwave began to spread from a certain point.
In an instant, the previously settled Secret Realm became active again, and at the same time, at least ten new high-contamination incidents were triggered.
This was just the beginning…
Countless Magic Monsters appeared in the busiest streets of the Ancient City, launching unrestricted attacks on everything in sight.
The nightmare turned into reality, and the dreamworld moved towards the mortal world.
The special service teams were once again thrown into battle, but this time, their anxious hearts felt a slight thrill.
The old stagers could taste the feeling that the enemy had no more cards to play.
But in the next moment, they realized they had been too quick to celebrate…
The sky darkened again for a moment, time was readjusted, and a voice murmured in the city.
“The Reenactment has begun.”
——-

As this moment finally arrived, Lu Ping’an finished his final preparations.
He had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
“Although he’s a bit naive, his craftsmanship is really good.”
He loosened his arm, and the mechanical armguard from shoulder to finger emitted a faint silver glow.
Although the heavy gauntlet seemed thick, it felt incredibly lightweight, the joints were very flexible, and the fingers could even perform various stunts.
On his desk, there was also a simple instruction manual.
“Strength enhancement, jet acceleration, enchanted heavy blow…
It’s really powerful, the artificer’s skills must be high.”
Playing with the light silver gauntlet, Lu Ping’an nodded in satisfaction.
He was no longer a complete novice, and with his craftsmanship combined with Silver-tier taboo materials, it was priceless.
Although it was still technically a quasi-contaminant object, its practical combat effectiveness should far exceed that of a so-called Brass Taboo weapon…
Aside from the disadvantage of needing regular maintenance, it could even break a weaker Silver-tier Taboo weapon.
“All Mechanic Spiritualists are excellent artisans and mechanics; Fang Wen’s artisan skill is at least fourth-tier…” Big Cat’s telepathy was filled with anxiety and irritation.
“But there must be monitoring devices inside, you…”
“…As if there wouldn’t be any surveillance without this thing.
In my opinion, this is a good thing; at least other Watchers have likely been removed, making it easier for me to determine the gaze monitoring me.”
After “showing his cards” with Fang Wen, Lu Ping’an hadn’t returned to the Life Bank.
He didn’t even need to check to know that there must be a Mechanical Beast monitoring him 24/7.
He just stayed in his room, patiently reading books, preparing, flipping through plans, and waiting for this moment to come…
His patience only made the Watcher lurking in the shadows more anxious and uneasy.
During Lu Ping’an’s few outings, he had already spent the “atonement money” he had just received, all of it turned into an instant boost in combat power.
Now was not the time to think about the future.
But now that this moment had come, he still wasn’t in a hurry to gather information.
“Snap!”
When the Mechanical Bird finally arrived, Lu Ping’an showed a satisfied smile…
Look, the Tool Man who delivered the information came voluntarily.
“The ritual site is on Nine Plates Mountain…”
However, Lu Ping’an just smiled and held out his hand, stopping her.
“No rush, come with me, let’s kill someone first.”
Having said that, Lu Ping’an didn’t care about her reaction, just leaving her a location in the Ancient City to meet and then prepared to leave.
“You…” Fang Wen had never seen such an infuriating guy, but at this moment, she thought of the two contracts and Him behind them…
“…If there’s no reasonable explanation, I’ll make it difficult for you to die.” She threatened viciously, but it only made Lu Ping’an laugh out loud.
When was the last time a Sixth-tier big shot of the Mother Goddess Cult had to threaten before killing someone?
It was no different than a street thug asking, “What are you looking at?”
Soon, Lu Ping’an, with his hood up, and Fang Wen arrived at the predetermined location, a place filled with many memories for Lu Ping’an.
“Ancient City Zion District Police Station…
Who do you want to kill?
Special Service Team members?
Are they worth being hunted?
Our time is limited.”
Fang Wen’s emotions were explosive at this moment, like a ticking time bomb.
Whenever she thought of the “Ascension Reenactment” ceremony being held on Nine Plates Mountain, even knowing there was still some time, she couldn’t calm down.
Facing her questioning, Lu Ping’an just smiled and handed her a list of names, all of which were familiar to him.
“Kill them following the list, and we’ll eventually reach our target.”
The first person, the second person on the list, was currently in the office of Team 3 of the Special Service.
“Old Ke?
Ke Zhenmo?
Semi-retired logistics of the Special Service Team 3?
Why kill him?
Do you have a grudge against him?”
Lu Ping’an just smiled, not saying anything.
But in his calm eyes, the intention of “kill him” was already clear.
Looking at the second name, Fang Wen, who had read Lu Ping’an’s file, became even more puzzled.
“The second person, isn’t he your friend?
Lei Huoren…”
