557: Chapter 555: Red Beard and the Pendant 557: Chapter 555: Red Beard and the Pendant Startled, Li Haiyang, trembling, pointed towards the kitchen and said, “The ceramic pillow is in the pickling jar in the kitchen…”
Barcode let out a light humph and climbed off Li Haiyang’s body, heading to the kitchen to search for the ceramic pillow that contained the Sword Qi Crystal.
Wen Wen stayed where he was, curiously looking between Li Haiyang’s legs.
Of course, Wen Wen was not looking at the slly quilt, but at the bullet hole made by Barcode.
Perhaps feeling embarrassed, Barcode did not show any abnormal reaction.
But Wen Wen saw very clearly, that shot was aid directly at Li Haiyang’s leg, and he had been ready to use his Strength to block it, but the shot did not hit its mark.
As an emotionless assassin, Barcode at such a distance would not make a mistake, so the problem must have been with Li Haiyang.
“What…
what do you want to do?”
Li Haiyang squeezed his legs together, shivering at Wen Wen, being stared at by a man like this was truly terrifying.
“Stop ssing around.”
Wen Wen scattered his Inspiration, enveloping Li Haiyang’s entire body, and then discovered what he was looking for exactly at Li Haiyang’s chest, he began to undress Li Haiyang’s nightshirt,
Li Haiyang’s face was full of humiliation, fighting to protect his clothes to the death.
These two perverts, snatching that ceramic pillow wasn’t enough, now they were coveting his body?
Truly despicable.
But obviously, he was overthinking it, as Wen Wen was hardly interested in him.
“So that’s how it is…” Wen Wen looked at Li Haiyang’s chest, as if he had realized sothing.
On Li Haiyang’s chest, there was a red, upside-down fla-shaped tattoo, a pattern Wen Wen was very familiar with.
Wen Wen took out the fla emblem from the necklace he had obtained from Chai Yun, placed it on Li Haiyang’s chest, and a mont later a similar fla emblem surged out from underneath Li Haiyang’s skin.
“That thing on your chest, how did it co to be, tell everything you know, this thing won’t miss.”
Wen Wen pulled out a rocket launcher and pressed it against Li Haiyang’s forehead and said.
Li Haiyang, on the verge of tears, was threatened with a rocket launcher which was essentially the sa as being threatened with a gun; either way, he was going to die.
However, under the pressure from Wen Wen, Li Haiyang still spilled everything about how he had obtained the necklace.
At this point, Barcode had already found the ceramic pillow and had thoroughly cleaned it from end to end, but it was clear that Wen Wen was more interested in Li Haiyang at the mont, so Barcode could only wait on the side.
“Chai Yun was just newly hired and was given such a necklace, and his necklace seed to be randomly bought from a street stall…
this ans Red Beard is deliberately spreading these necklaces.”
“When the owner of the necklace encounters fatal danger, the necklace protects the owner, but then, it rges into the owner’s body and cannot be taken out…”
“What on earth is Red Beard’s purpose.”
Wen Wen looked at the sleeping pills on Li Haiyang’s table and asked, “Your sleep must not be very good, do you have nightmares at night?”
Li Haiyang nodded and said, “That’s right, in my dreams, I am a person who is incessantly swinging a hamr.”
“That person swinging the hamr must be Red Beard, so it seems that this necklace connects its owner with Red Beard…”
“I see, this is how Red Beard blackmails the Association!”
Wen Wen’s eyes lit up, he reached out towards Li Haiyang’s chest, dark Energy waves bound the necklace, and then Wen Wen slowly began to pull the necklace out.
As he tried to pull it out, Li Haiyang’s body trembled uncontrollably like soone with epilepsy, as if his life force was being drained along with the action.
After attempting briefly, Wen Wen stopped and muttered to himself, “Just as I thought…
this pendant is widely circulated in Baoya City, and it is hidden and cannot be removed.
Once Red Beard is touched, all those who hold the pendant may end up accompanying Red Beard in death.”
“The Hunter Association, whose purpose is to protect ordinary people from the harm of Supernatural Powers, would definitely struggle to act against this.
They might even have under-the-table dealings, which is why the Association has been so secretive with .”
Wen Wen pondered for a while, then a smile played on his lips, thinking this could be a good thing for him.
Wen Wen saw two possibilities regarding Red Beard and this pendant.
The first was that Red Beard could control the lives of these people at will through these pendants, but if he was capable of doing that, he wouldn’t need to add a feature to protect the holders.
The second was that Red Beard had bound his own life with the lives of ordinary people who possessed the pendant.
If he died, all the ordinary people with pendants on their bodies would die too, and likewise, if any ordinary person with a pendant died, Red Beard would also sustain so damage.
If that was the case, as long as Red Beard did not die, the pendant would actually be beneficial to those ordinary people.
Beyond that was the possibility that Red Beard was purely being benevolent, giving out Amulets to ordinary people for free, which Wen Wen naturally did not believe Red Beard possessed such integrity.
Combining Li Haiyang’s dreams, Wen Wen leaned more towards the second possibility, but regardless of which it was, Wen Wen found it feasible to deal with Red Beard.
He clapped his hands suddenly, feeling certain in his heart.
“When dealing with Red Beard, I must abide by two principles.”
“The first is that I must not reveal my identity as a Ranger, and even act extrely vicious so that Red Beard will not use those ordinary people to threaten .”
“The second is…
I must not harm his life, not even seriously injure him.”
“As long as I get him into the Sanctuary, even if he wants to die, he won’t be able to.”
Once he figured everything out, Wen Wen’s eyes faintly reddened.
He covered Li Haiyang’s face with his wide sleeve, inside which he placed the mory Eraser.
“Forget everything that happened tonight, and then sleep well, sleep until the morning…”
The vampire’s Hypnotic Ability, combined with the effects of the mory Eraser, was more than enough to give Li Haiyang a good night’s sleep and erase all mories of tonight.
With Barcode by his side, Wen Wen did not wish to expose himself as a Ranger.
Wen Wen brought Barcode to another room and said, “I found it, now let take a look.”
Barcode placed the ceramic pillow on the ground and gave it a sharp knock.
The ceramic shell shattered instantly, revealing a piece of special tal the size of two rolls of toilet paper.
“This tal is the companion tal from the Sword Qi Crystal buried underground for hundreds of years; the crystal itself is within the tal.”
After presenting the tal in front of Wen Wen, Barcode stepped aside to see how Wen Wen would handle it.
Wen Wen picked up the tal and sensed it briefly, indeed detecting an extrely pure and powerful Sword Intent wave within.
This Sword Intent was highly compressed; if uncoiled, it would be much larger than if dozens of Wen Wens were bound together.
Moreover, this was just the quantity of Sword Qi; in terms of quality, this Sword Qi was equivalent to Hundred Refined Steel, whereas Wen Wen was like finding random items in a trash heap and compressing them together with a hydraulic press.
Although swordsmanship was only a part of Wen Wen’s strength, the gap was still staggeringly large.
