Chapter 380: Purification Spell
After learning about the suspicious behavior of these two people...
Cress has arrived.
The burly man who pushed the door open had a broad face, square mouth, broad shoulders and a big waist. His hair was tied back in a warrior-style braid.
Especially the two intersecting scars on the left cheek.
This made Lin Yu a little suspicious...
Does the title "Demon Hunter" have any appearance elements in it?
Otherwise, you can just call him "Mage" or "Sage" or something like that.
As soon as Cress entered the room, his eyes immediately passed over Lin Yu and Fu Luo who were sitting at the table under the light, and fell on Liang Ye in the corner.
"Cena, Liangye, why is it you?"
Liang Ye looked at Cress, his hands on his chest: "Shit, be quiet, Cress!"
"You are now the biggest suspect in Radish's death, and I... I am the person in charge of investigating this matter at 'Order'."
"You better confess and I'll give you leniency, but resist and I'll give you severity!"
Cress walked to the table and didn't sit down. Instead, he held the back of the chair with one hand and said with great momentum, "Hey, I don't know why you doubt me, but there is no grudge between me and Luobo in the past or today..."
"You're a dirty bounty hunter, you bastard. You can kill your friends for 8,000 yuan. I find it funny that you need a grudge to kill people."
Liang Ye spat, walked forward to stand between Lin Yu and Fu Luo, and supported himself on the table with both hands. His momentum was no less than that of Cress.
"Hey, you, a jerk, have you no other skills besides slandering people?" Cress turned to look at Li Hua. "Why, does 'order' no longer rely on evidence, Mr. 'Gambler'?"
Li Hua, who was mentioned by Cress, coughed and said, "We have no ill intentions, Cress... Liang Ye, watch your words."
Liang Ye spoke immediately.
"Hey, shit... You think I don't have evidence, Cress?"
"I've been keeping an eye on you. Do you think your accounts are hidden enough? Don't forget our partners at 'Order' and the fact that I've just taken over as Jiangcheng's new boss!"
"Don't you want to explain the recent unidentified inflows into your offshore virtual accounts?"
Upon hearing this, Cress spat, "Cerna, you're trying to falsify this? What offshore virtual account?! I only use the Big Four banks!"
The two people stood in silence for a long time.
Liang Ye stared at Cress for a long time, and suddenly a smile appeared on his face.
"Hey, didn't I scare you?"
"Shit, I was just teasing you!"
The veins on Cress's forehead bulged: "That..."
Lin Yu couldn't stand this farce any longer. He knocked on the table and stopped the battle between Captain Xiba and the hunter.
"Captain, please don't interfere with our normal process. Are you determined to fight Mr. Kress at this time?"
Liang Ye took advantage of the situation, raised his hands and slowly retreated to the corner.
Cress was about to make a sarcastic remark, but was stopped by Lin Yu's words.
"Mr. Kress, please sit down and be questioned. If you truly believe you are innocent, please refrain from unnecessary actions that could increase your suspicion."
Lin Yu spoke slowly, extending his hand to gesture to the chair in front of Cress.
Cress slowly sat down and glanced at Lin Yu.
"Are you new to the Order?"
"Yes, you can call me May."
"As expected of 'Order', it always attracts interesting people."
Kress said this, crossing his hands under the table and leaning back.
"So...I want to ask something."
"The normal procedure is to ask you what you were doing last night, but since you're special, Cress, I'm not going to follow the normal procedure."
As Lin Yu spoke, he also leaned back.
"Oh? Am I special?"
Cress asked unexpectedly.
Lin Yu nodded: "Of course, because if we only look at the 'cause of death' and conclude that Luobo was killed by a player, then based on the current intelligence, only your ability can do this perfectly."
"According to the on-site investigation report issued by Order, there are no signs of the use of [tools] in the house. Instead, there is a faint remnant of power within his soul—this is consistent with your ability."
"You have the ability to cast spells without using tools, don't you?"
As Lin Yu spoke, Cress smiled.
"You're suspecting me based on this, but is it possible... that among the other suspects, I'm not the only one capable of this—and it's just that you just happened to know about my ability?"
Lin Yu also smiled.
"It's quite possible, actually. Most of the current suspects are so-called 'high-end players,' so it's normal for them to have some hidden tactics and cards."
"But... now is the time for you to prove your innocence—either tell me clearly who else has similar abilities, or prove that you can't kill the carrot."
Lin Yu spoke calmly, and Cress's expression changed slightly.
"What if I don't tell you... If there's no definitive evidence, can you, the 'Order', still insist that it was me?"
"As the most prestigious organization among players, are you going to frame me?"
Lin Yu laughed.
"You know, the enemy of 'order' has never been 'evil'. We don't call it 'justice' but 'order', which means that our greatest enemy is... chaos."
"You know we have prestige, so... Mr. Bounty Hunter, you have a bad record and a bad reputation. Why would you go against us?"
"If necessary, we can sacrifice you to appease the Players' Mutual Aid Association and more players, because Mr. Carrot is so famous - so, cooperate."
"Now, tell me, what are your abilities?"
Cress looked at Lin Yu and said, "It's the Lost Heart of Jingxu. You don't know what it's worth. Let those two over there take a good look at it. They'll tell you in a moment."
He clasped his index fingers together and hooked his thumbs and little fingers together.
The invisible sound of the ocean tide and the distant singing of a woman rang out.
Lin Yu suddenly felt dizzy and almost vomited.
He hugged his head, and the fishy smell of sea water rushed into his nostrils, and a feeling of suffocation as if drowning came over him.
"Grass!"
"What are you doing?!"
Liang Ye spoke in a cold voice.
Li Hua reacted faster.
"That's enough, Kress!"
At the moment the sound was made, two golden twenty-sided dice spun in the air and finally stopped at the same time.
One at seven and one at four.
"Eleven, failure!"
Cress's expression suddenly changed drastically. He loosened his hands, then covered his left forearm and gasped.
"hiss……"
At this moment, Liang Ye also rushed over and pressed his head directly onto the table.
"Kress, you're so bold!"
Lin Yu also recovered from drowning immediately. He coughed violently and actually spat out a mouthful of sea water on the table.
These "Level 3" players, especially those who are famous on the list, are really damn dangerous!
But Lin Yu wiped his wet mouth and nose, and still looked at Cress who was pressed on the table with a calm and somewhat crazy attitude.
"I hope you can give me a reasonable explanation."
Cress looked at Lin Yu in this state, staring at him for a long time, and then spoke as if he had accepted his fate.
"Damn it, you win, Order."
"But...what just now is enough to prove it."
"The 'curse' I can perform without the aid of 'tools' cannot cause a death that cannot be detected by an 'autopsy' - if I want to kill someone, I have to do it like I did just now."
"Because its essence is to grant me the authority to borrow the power of the Pure Ruins..."
"And Jingxu is a vast ocean."
"So if I had done it, the carrot should have choked to death."
Cress explained and Lin Yu waved his hand.
"Okay, Captain, let him go."
"Keep an eye on him. I'm going out to rinse my mouth."
Lin Yu stood up and walked out with his schoolbag.
When he got outside and was on his way to the bathroom, Lin Yu patted his schoolbag.
"Old Zheng, tell me about the 'Jingxu' that guy mentioned. How much do you know about it?"
"His tactics were wrong - although I felt like I was drowning just now, before I drowned, I felt dizzy - not physiologically."
"In other words, he actually has a similar ability to manipulate consciousness, right?"
