Chapter 689: Chapter 0689: Destiny (Seeking Subscriptions)
In the dark alley.
The Vulture dashed to the end of the street, only to find it was a dead end.
At the sa ti, a fierce wind roared towards him from behind.
‘He didn’t leave? It’s a trap?’
The Vulture crouched quickly, avoiding an attack, a grin appearing on his face, “You have no idea… who you’re dealing with!”
In his sinister laugh, a lump of flesh bulged from his back, directly ripping through his clothes to transform into a huge black hand that shielded him from the upcoming attack.
“Hmm? Biotech? A cyborg?”
Looking at the ‘Vulture’ in front of him, Su Lu saw that the huge hand sprouting from his back had a biological chanical style. He knew that horrifying modifications must have occurred: “Implanting machinery into flesh, it’s like an evolved prosthetic limb. You’re neither human nor ghost, the modification process must have been quite painful, huh?”
“Got you now!”
The Vulture looked up, his eyes bloodshot. Massive arms spread from his back like his body was a bottomless pit.
Among the hideous flesh and blood arms intermingled with machinery and circuits, like a python, forming tornadoes and vortices, tearing all surrounding buildings apart.
“This move…”
Su Lu’s pupils shrank, fired several shots, creating large holes on the biochanical arm, which healed at a rapid speed.
This type of self-healing ability and enormous strength was definitely of a ‘non-human’ level.
Eventually, the massive biochanical arm completely engulfed the black figure, turning him into a huge fleshy mass.
“Hehe…die.”
The Vulture fell into a semi-mad state, completely forgetting his purpose. He made a compacting motion with his hands.
Bang!
The chanical flesh lump abruptly collapsed inward.
Thump!
Just as this happened, a giant energy beam appeared, blowing a large hole in the flesh lump.
From the foggy mist, one could faintly see that the right hand of the figure had transford into a cannon engraved with magical symbols!
——Magic Cannon!
“You’re fooling yourself!”
In the Vulture’s mont of surprise, the black figure had already rushed up to him at the speed of the wind, grabbing his neck and throwing him violently against the wall.
Bang!
The Vulture was hit as though struck head-on by a train, breaking through several walls and landing in a pile of ruins.
“Bio-chanical arm, you scared the heck out of , you think you have a bunch of nines behind your na starting with K…”
After Su Lu’s sarcastic comnt, he didn’t make a move.
“This is provocation from fate…even if you found , you can’t do anything to .”
“Are you sad? Are you in pain? Are you desperate? Since you’re seeking the truth, I’ll give you the truth!”
He walked up to the Vulture, unleashing a wave of spiritual power that penetrated the Vulture’s mind.
This was not the nature of a divine being; he had washed away all stamps before his reincarnation. But it was indeed the ntal shock from the Star Devourer Clan.
Even so, the terrifying ntal shock had the Vulture screaming in agony.
“As an investigator, you’re destined to confront indescribable horrors…haha…”
Su Lu laughed and walked away.
The Vulture’s face, already covered in blood, twisted even more severely. Blood stread out from every orifice creating thin, red threads.
“Ahhh!”
He clutched his head, screaming hysterically.
He saw many unknown horrors that he couldn’t describe, this feeling almost drove him mad, forcing him to lie on the ground like a dog, panting heavily: “I…won’t let you off.”
This feeling made it clear that his opponent was not a human, but so sort of…unknown…beast!
Even so, the Vulture had suspicions regarding the human identity of his opponent.
‘Magic Cannon…liquid tal…’
‘This silhouette…it’s so familiar!’
‘Morphy…it has to be you!’
He roared internally. Seeing his colleagues co to support him, he finally relaxed, falling unconscious.
…
The next day.
Investigator’s secret hospital.
The Vulture, wearing a specially designed straitjacket, was screaming in a padded room, “I’m not crazy…Humans are not the rulers of this world…the stars are…”
“That Morphy…he’s a monster…arrest him imdiately!”
“No…that’s not Morphy…it’s…”
“Hehe…Mommy…I want candy…”
…
Outside the window, an investigator watched this scene with pity: “What happened?”
“Preliminary judgnt, he ca into contact with so kind of strange and terrifying things from an imaginary space, drove him mad…”
A doctor in a white coat responded, “It’s unfortunate, I don’t know when he will recover, we can only give calming treatnts…but for an investigator, being alive is lucky, isn’t it?”
The young investigator clenched his fists tightly, left the place, and caught a carriage.
“Locke…have you seen the Vulture?”
In the carriage, an elderly gentleman with white hair and a walking cane was also present.
“He is my senior, I will definitely find out the truth. I have seen all the files and notes that senior Vulture left…That Morphy is very suspicious, I suggest imdiate arrest and interrogation!”
Locke gritted his teeth.
“You plan on arresting a promising student from the Royal chanical University without any evidence?”
The old man chuckled: “I’m not talking about Jas’ influence, even Sha Lina is a very protective woman. Of course…If we have evidence, we’re not afraid, but the Vulture has gone mad, are you expecting a madman to testify in court?”
“We are investigators, not judges, we don’t need evidence… Let alone yesterday’s incident, from all the signs, that Morphy is even more suspicious of killing Claude in the Baixi District…”
Locke clenched his fists.
“A re smuggler, Jas could completely suppress it…” The old man shook his head and handed over a file: “Also…take a look at this.”
Locke took the docunt, only glanced at it and frowned: “The site of the explosion yesterday was confird as a secret base of the Natural Society? …and, consecutively, three of them were, in the last one, they even found the bodies of Dokasha, the person in charge, and Emily? She was one of the Seven Star Generals.”
“At the last base, the Natural Society obviously set a trap, but still failed. The killer was very powerful…and seed to have no hostility towards us.”
The old man said slowly.
“With the Vulture in the hospital, you call that no hostility?” Locke found it amusing.
“At the mont…the pressure from the Beast Tide is more pressing than anything else. The disputes between the major kingdoms, different forces, must maintain a certain limit, this is a kind of tacit understanding.”
The old man shook his head: “However…I authorize you to monitor and observe the target…rember, without my orders, no one is allowed to act!”
“You should’ve said so earlier.”
Locke lit a cigarette, got off the carriage and took a deep draw: “Senior…I will avenge you!”
