Chapter 1645: The Truth Is Revealed
"This is really... a big trouble." After receiving Rebir's reply, Cruze couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head. He just wanted to satisfy his own bad taste. Cruze also thought that he would be retaliated by Huang and others, but he didn't expect Huang to be so serious and angry this time. He was in big trouble.
"My lord, what do you need me to do?"
If Fulu Monroe saw this scene, she would be surprised to the point of being unable to close her mouth, because Ovan Lanx, who disdained her and even didn't take Cruze seriously, was standing behind Cruze at this time. His respectful attitude was completely like treating Cruze as his master, and he was like Cruze's most loyal knight.
And the guards who followed Ovan Lanx at the time also stood straight in a row in the room, without any emotional fluctuations, like machines that only obeyed orders.
"You don't need to do anything." Cruze shook the red wine glass in his hand and took a sip gently.
For Cruze, whether it is Ovan Ranks or these guards, they are no longer of much value to Cruze. They were originally used to train new abilities. Now that the training is completed and they can be fully controlled, these people are of no value. If he had not promised Fleur Monroe to keep these people alive for a while, he would have dealt with them long ago.
That's right, the new ability developed by Cruze, Cruze's original control ability, also uses mental waves to create invisible silk threads to control people, just like a puppet. It was the same when he controlled Fleur Monroe and Ovan Ranks before, but now...
Ovan Ranks's performance is not just as simple as being controlled by silk threads, but... Cruze can already insert the thread of mental waves into people's brains to brainwash and control them from the mental level, and this ability is completely different from the forced brainwashing. It will not force the memory to change, but it will force people to act according to Cruze's ideas from the mental surface. In other words, the personality and memory of the object are not affected at all, but can only watch Cruze control himself and can't do anything.
Moreover, Cruze is very sure that even if the target's mental wave level and strength are higher than his own, as long as it is not more than twice as high, he cannot remove the thread from his brain, and can only struggle to a certain extent at a corresponding level.
It must be said that this ability is very consistent with Cruze's personality. Cruze never likes tough means. He prefers to play with other people's minds and enjoy the process of others' depravity.
Another point is that Cruze will take the thread out of the target's brain on his own initiative, which will not cause any damage to the brain. As for whether the things he does when he is controlled will cause mental trauma... that depends on personal opinion.
"Yes, sir."
"By the way, after you went back yesterday, Grundon asked you, how did you respond?" Cruze asked Orvan Ranks casually. Orvan Ranks was a man with a very strong willpower, and he could resist his body control with willpower alone, so he didn't want to know anything from Orvan Ranks, but...
"Please rest assured, sir Cruze, Grundon did ask me about you, but I dealt with it by saying that I didn't find anything, and the guards all spoke the same caliber, and there was Fulu's injury as evidence, so Grundon didn't suspect anything." Orvan Ranks reported respectfully, without any emotion.
"Well, I understand." As far as it seems, Ovan Lanx knows the same thing as he does, and he has not noticed any fluctuations, which means that he is indeed under his control. "Take your people back first, and don't come to the palace too often recently, so as not to make Granton suspicious."
"Follow your will."
This is the effect of fully controlling the new ability. What Cruze needs is a low-profile version of El Elf, who may be a little bit inferior in ability, or may not be professionally matched, but can think independently and not have too many thoughts. If it is Carolan, he will definitely say to leave two or three guards to help him do chores and show his value as much as possible.
This is the disadvantage of overdoing it. If you like to over-interpret orders, like to figure out Cruze's thoughts, and try your best to show yourself, it is easy to add unnecessary details and reveal flaws.
"My Lord, routine report"
After Ovan Ranks and his guards had all left the room for a while, El Elfer climbed through the window to enter the room. Cruze would not show all his cards to Ovan Ranks and others just because he controlled them, or... he did not let Ovan Ranks know anything at all, including the existence of El Elfer and the fact that the important areas of Free had been completely controlled.
"Go ahead."
"Ovan Ranks was summoned by Granton yesterday to inquire about the outsiders. Ovan Ranks used the guards as witnesses and Fulu Monroe's injuries as evidence, and did not reveal any information about us to Granton."
"Only these?"
"There are two things I cannot confirm."
"What are they?"
"First, Ovan Ranks' movements became very stiff after leaving Granton's mansion; second, after Ovan Ranks left, Granton locked himself in the study, not seeing anyone, and went to the hangar an hour later to debug the machine."
"Hmm...it's interesting." Cruze touched his chin and thought. The first point is that Ovan Lanx must still want to break free from Cruze's control with perseverance, which also shows that his decision to conceal is correct, and...he found that he needs to strengthen the strength of his mental waves.
The second thing is that Granton's actions are a bit strange. They are obviously not exposed, but Granton seems to be preparing to launch an armed coup.
"El Elver, what do you think?" Cruze asked El Elver. El Elver's execution ability is indeed very high, but it does not mean that he only executes tasks. On the contrary, El Elver's vision is also among the best.
"Our intelligence should not be leaked. It is very likely that Carolan and Queen Shanamia have revealed their feet, which made Granton begin to doubt." El Elver said his guess without hesitation.
"Go on."
"Since we arrived in Free, Orlando Ziyun and Dania Gad have increased the frequency of visiting the palace, and the relationship between Carolan and Grundon has also changed to a certain extent. Grundon should have noticed something wrong and is ready to speed up his pace."
"Sure enough..." Cruze sneered, and became more determined to get rid of Carolan. As for Shanamia...it can only be said that Grundon can become the general representative of the knights not only because of his muscles, but also because of his brains.
"My lord, it is not appropriate to deal with Carolan now. At least we have to wait until Grundon's faction is completely destroyed." El Elf reminded.
"Well, I know this, I'm not in a hurry, are all the other things ready?"
"It's ready. Your body has been transported to Free through the passage we came from. There are three teams of the rapid response force waiting outside Free, led by [Scarlet Lightning] Johnny Riding and [Black Death of the Corpse Dance] Lid Wolf."
"... Can't contact Advant yet?" Cruze doesn't fight a battle he's not sure of. Without Yang Hui and Advant, the time-stopping device is still a thorny problem. He can't let the elite of the Promise Legion suffer losses because of a small Free.
"No."
"I know. Please send a visiting card to Orlando Ziyun for me. I will visit him quietly tonight."
"Understood."
