Barrier of Light

The tomb was silent.

Only the burning sound of two wisps of flames remained.

The blazing fire between Gu Shen's brows, and the bloody fire between the brows of the man wearing the priestly robe of the Church of the Evening Bell.

The slender muzzle of the sniper of truth was pointed directly at the man's forehead.

That wisp of blood-colored flame was forced to appear in front of the huge sense of oppression... From the moment the wisp of flame appeared, Xiao Xiao's identity was exposed.

He raised his hands, his expression unchanged, and whispered: "How...how did you recognize me?"

The Long-lasting Foundation was destroyed in the metropolitan area...

During the whole process, he did not actually meet Gu Shen.

In fact, he does not have his own "entity" and has always been stored in his spirit. However, his blood and fire have not been revealed and his aura has been restrained. How could his identity be seen through by Gu Shen?

Xiao couldn't understand.

"It's a coincidence. It's also an unfortunate coincidence."

Gu Shen said calmly: "Although the Jiujiu Foundation has been destroyed, the Judgment Office will not let go of an S-class fugitive like you. After confirming the information about your death in Nanzhou... the Judgment Office obtained the specific files through the Federal Bureau of Investigation. , the chain of evidence is complete, the confession is flawless, the Investigation Bureau and [Deep Sea] both concluded that you are dead. I read the file of that case carefully."

"so?"

The owl narrowed his eyes.

"There is nothing wrong with that file. At that time, I also thought you were dead." Gu Shen pointed to his forehead with his other hand and said softly: "But my memory is not bad. The Nanzhou Church was attacked, and the monster Praying under the icon, the priest witnessed all these deaths. The Investigation Agency finally confirmed your identity through blood stains and genetic comparison, conducted a cross-continental trial of the case, and [Deep Sea] also confirmed 'the monster' through system processes 'The body and death are infallible."

"It's just... they don't know that you can transfer your physical body through spiritual power. The so-called 'prayer' is false, and so is 'death'... At the last moment, you sent your spiritual power to the priest's mind. , escaped from the original body, witnessed his own death, and provided the most perfect link in the evidence chain."

Gu Shen narrowed his eyes and looked at the face of the man in front of him.

In the Nanzhou case, the name of the owner of this face is Sandini Singh.

It's that... priest in the church.

"It's such a wild imagination," Xiao sighed softly: "But, these...are you really thinking of it yourself?"

Of course not entirely.

If Chu Ling hadn't transferred the Nanzhou Church case, Gu Shen wouldn't have dared to be so sure... In fact, what he said was just a guess, and what happened now just confirmed his guess.

He has the ability to conduct "deep-sea authority secondment" and has such a high degree of correlation with the old Nanzhou case... These two points alone are enough for Gu Shenwei to take action on this speculation.

And the appearance of that wisp of blood and fire completely proved that——

Gu Shen guessed correctly!

"We always meet on such occasions... I found you at first, and now you find me. Is this a coincidence... or is it destiny?"

Xiao Xiao chuckled and spoke. He raised his eyes and looked at the long and deep muzzle of the big sniper rifle, "Gu Shen, I haven't seen you for a few months, and you have become stronger again..."

"Cut the nonsense."

Gu Shen said coldly: "I can shoot you to death at any time."

He doesn't believe in any bullshit fate.

Xiao Xiao shrugged helplessly, raised his hands, and wrote lightly: "You can't shoot... Once the tranquility of this tomb is destroyed, it will attract the attention of the guys from the Evening Bell Church outside. They are all lunatics. , this shot is fired, if you kill me, don’t even think about running away.”

"It's true that I can't shoot, but it's not because of these crazy people outside."

Gu Shen said calmly: "It's because you are not worthy of this snow-colliding bullet..."

Xiao Xiao smiled silently.

"Whether it's Zhou Yu or Ye Ningqiu... they all have different abilities."

Gu Shen narrowed his eyes.

After [Operation Hunting Owl], he reviewed the mission of the entire special operations team and the difficulties they encountered more than once in his mind.

The most important purpose is to figure out the ability of "blood fire"!

Objects that can attract Blazing Fire's attention are very rare!

And Xiao's "Blood Fire" is one of them!

Until the completion of the Nanzhou case, the federal government had not concluded the characteristics of "blood fire"... because there were too few people who had fully fought with "Xiao", and no one knew how far his mental power had spread and how much he had controlled. Puppet, and will the abilities of these puppets be affected by "blood fire"?

"No matter how powerful the abilities in this world are, they should have limits..."

Gu Shen said slowly: "Even if you can seize the body, it cannot be without conditions. If 'Blood Fire' itself has strong offensive capabilities, then the characteristics of 'spread' and 'link' are somewhat unreasonable... I don’t think your ability is very strong, you can even say... very weak."

The smile on Xiao's face stiffened slightly.

"The reason why you planned the big explosion in Yinghai was actually to seize Zhou Yu's [Dream]. This is the same reason why you approached Chen Mo... you longed for powerful extraordinary abilities."

"How can a truly strong man pursue the power of others at the expense of others?"

Gu Shen had no expression on his face and said word by word: "From this point, I can be sure that aside from those masks and puppets... your soul hidden under that wisp of blood and fire must be a weak clown. Being able to rely on the power of the host, if the host is strong enough, then you are strong enough; if the host is weak, then you will also become weak."

Xiao Xiao, who had raised his hands in a gesture of surrender a few seconds ago, turned completely gloomy after hearing these words, and his face was clouded, looking indescribably eerie.

He really didn't care about the existence of "Bengxue".

He actually put down his hands and put them into the priest's robe.

"Sandini Singh is just an ordinary person. Your blood and fire resides in his body. He survives and saves a life...but how much power can be exerted in this body? ?" Gu Shen said calmly: "This... is the reason why I don't shoot. You are too weak now and you are not worthy of me shooting."

In this world, matter and spirit should dissolve and become one.

But "Xiao" is the exception!

He has an unparalleled "powerful spirit" and an extremely weak "weak body."

"You know me...well."

Xiao Xiao stopped smiling and said quietly, "In this case, I have nothing to disguise..."

Gu Shen slowly put down the Sniper of Truth.

The opponent is not afraid to shoot himself.

the reason is simple……

A being like Xiao, from the moment his spiritual power attaches to "Sandini Singh", is destined not to leave just a body, even if he is looking for a "dying man" lying in the dark mud. "People", he will definitely find another place to accommodate his spirit. After so much time, if he dared to travel thousands of miles alone and come to Dongzhou again, he would not be afraid of the death of this clone.

Gu Shen's attention was focused on the vertical coffin behind the owl.

Among the pile of scattered debris, there is an inconspicuous "lamp"...

The lamp of mourning?

His eyes flickered.

But it still caught Xiao Xiao's attention.

"Since you are also here for this mausoleum..."

Xiao looked back at the vertical coffin and said calmly: "Then there is no need for us to fight to the death here... This will not benefit you or me. And judging from your appearance, you must have just sneaked in, right?"

This underground base has been under construction for several months.

Judging from the time of the Nanzhou case, Xiao's clone should have been sneaking here for some time.

Gu Shen remained calm and frowned, "What do you want to say?"

"I want to say... we can cooperate." Xiao lowered his voice and said slowly: "Obviously... we have information that neither of us knows about, and we can exchange it."

"exchange?"

Gu Shen shook his head. He held the Truth Sniper in one hand and said, "You seem to have no room for negotiation."

Seeing the big sniper in the opponent's hand...

The image of himself being shot to death in the Free Church flashed through his mind again.

This is really a very bad memory.

There was clearly a trace of anger lingering between Xiao Xiao's brows.

"It seems that you don't have much information." Gu Shen smiled, "Otherwise, why would you be so slow to react when opening the coffin... You must not have known that the thing in the coffin would be this. Familiar bullets, right?”

Xiao Xiao's expression became even more ugly.

Yes.

He never imagined... that he would see such a thing again!

With the ability of "Zhou Yu", they were all killed by this bullet——

This is simply an invincible weapon!

There are already enough such things in the world!

A second one actually appeared in the tomb?

Does this mean... there may be a third or fourth one?

This was exactly what Gu Shen was thinking at the moment. When they were at Dadu Riverside, the teacher solemnly handed over "Bengxue" to him. At that time, Bengxue looked like what was in the coffin.

Led by a red rope, at first glance the snow is as white as a jade pendant.

But... at this time, what Gu Shen cares about is different from Xiao Xiao!

Does the two appearances of "Bengxue" mean that...the teacher's past is also connected to this ancient tomb?

"Gu Shen... the codes in the base database are being tampered with, the system has been attacked, and unknown chaos may occur next."

Chu Ling spoke and said, "I'm trying to recover the code."

When Gu Shen heard this, he raised his sniper again.

This time he took a few steps forward.

The sniper's muzzle was directly pressed against the head of "Sandini Singh".

"I really don't want to shoot, but I don't mind shooting either."

Gu Shen said expressionlessly: "Stop all those messy little tricks... If there is any trouble next, I will really shoot you to death..."

Indeed, the owl is not afraid of death.

But he spent a lot of effort to get here... He also didn't want to return empty-handed and sacrifice such a body.

Xiao Xiao silently clenched his fists.

"Okay...the attack on the database has stopped." Chu Ling said calmly: "I will restore everything to normal."

Gu Shen did not put down his gun. He whispered: "Since you want to negotiate... then why not start with such a posture, Mr. Xiao?"

No choice.

Xiao took a deep breath, looked up at the sniper above his head, and finally chose to swallow his anger.

Veins bulged on his forehead, and he gritted his teeth and said, "How do you want to talk about it?"

Gu Shen narrowed his eyes and said calmly: "Just do what you said before... exchange information."

"How long have you been here, how did you get here, and what is in this mausoleum?"

Hearing this question, Xiao's expression became strange.

So far, he has had a pure "victim's perspective". He smuggled across Dongzhou alone, finally crossed several large areas, and came to the tundra of the far north. He sneaked into the "Evening Bell Church" and deciphered the code. He got the password of the database and sneaked into the tomb under the snow field.

Then...he finally opened the ancient coffin.

This all seems to be going well -

But no one expected that the coffin was empty except for a snow-colliding bullet. Just when he was about to get it, a young man suddenly walked out of the darkness and took the snow-colliding bullet as his own with a piece of rust. Yes, smile and load it.

Then, it’s a “classic reenactment”.

He is now being pointed at a gun, and the guy who said he wanted to exchange information with him seems to have gotten no information at all!

"You don't know where this place is? How did you find it?" Xiao Xiao endured his anger and was extremely puzzled, and then received Gu Shen's merciless kick.

"Bang" sound!

Gu Shen kicked "Sandini Singh" to the ground. As expected, the opponent's physical body was extremely weak, almost like an ordinary person who had not yet begun extraordinary practice.

"You'd better figure out the situation... I'm asking you now."

Gu Shen used the ruler of truth to separate another part of the arc light, turned it into an iron rope, tied up the man in front of him, and tied him tightly to a stone pillar in the tomb.

He squatted down and said calmly: "Imagine, if I leave your body and specific files to the Church of the Evening Bell, how will they react after seeing the scene of the tomb being looted? I don't remember. If you are wrong... they all believe in a certain existence related to the "Trident". I don't know that existence. Can they find your true body and crush it into pieces?"

A lot of sweat appeared on Sandini Singh's forehead.

Xiao Xiao said in a hoarse voice: "I have been here... for two months. I set out with the last group of Wanzhong Church members. Since you have checked the Nanzhou Church case, you should know...Sandini Singer was originally a member of the Evening Bell Church, but the screening for the northward plan was very strict, and only loyal believers could be selected."

"Plan to go north?"

Gu Shen was thoughtful.

"There are many churches that believe in Nanzhou... but the local area is full of wars and unrest. In order to develop their doctrines and expand their scale, all churches will choose to send priests to leave Nanzhou and plant 'sprout' in other places."

"This...is the plan to go north."
