Chapter 149: Reality

Chen Ke did not leave his rented apartment throughout the afternoon. He took a shower and sat in front of his computer desk in a comfortable bathrobe to surf the Internet.

Many things have happened in Opportunity City these days, and these things have secretly changed the direction of certain things.

These include Chen Ke's three assassination missions.

Jeff, the CEO of the famous advanced material engineering company Mirror of the United Federation, committed suicide by jumping off a building in the Opportunity City branch three nights ago. This news shocked the entire Opportunity City, and most people watched the show online with a mentality of watching the excitement.

Some people said that the reason for Jeff's suicide was that the psychic industry had sharply compressed the living space of the traditional materials industry, and the excessive pressure had always prevented the CEO from getting enough sleep.

The recent acquisition of Mirror of the Lee Consortium has always been the focus of industry news. Jeff once launched the board of directors to repurchase stocks to resist, but the effect was minimal, and Jeff himself was also facing the situation of being kicked out of the board of directors.

Mirror is an industrial company dedicated to the research and development of top-level artificial synthetic materials. In the past, they had satisfied the military cooperation enterprises of the United Federation. However, after the United Federation army carried out psychic reforms, their business changed from military to civilian.

Chen Ke remembered this man named Jeff. He jumped off a building more than 30 stories high in front of him. When Chen Ke found him, he seemed to be talking to something that didn't exist.

He didn't think Jeff was just drunk at the time. The murderous aura that suddenly appeared and disappeared for no reason made Chen Ke conclude that there were more than two of them in the room at that time.

Why did that thing finally change its mind? Chen Ke didn't know. But if Jeff was really talking to someone, then it must be the source of this murderous aura.

The next news described a shooting in the Holy Oak Villa District. The deceased was Fox, the president of the United Federation Lescott Psychic Enterprise.

Chen Ke was stunned for a moment. The hysterical heat in the room turned out to be the boss of Lescott Psychic Enterprise... He remembered that Shreli and Yang Xiao were psychic investigators under Lescott...

The Internet also pointed out that Lescott Psychic Enterprise is currently discussing mergers and acquisitions with the Lee Consortium, but Fox and the Lee Consortium have some differences in some aspects, so the merger and acquisition transaction has been stagnant.

Fox's death has been classified as murder by the county police, and a case has been quickly filed for investigation. However, because the killer's methods are very professional, the FBI has no clues yet.

However, considering that the two current cases are indirectly related to the Li Group, the FBI is currently preparing to launch an investigation into the Phoenix Republic and the Li Group.

Chen Ke sneered. It seems that the Li Group has unknowingly taken the blame for him.

But it is strange that these two people are actually the targets that the Li Group wants to acquire. These two assassinations seem to be some organization trying to convey some dangerous information to the Li Group.

"I was used as a gun." Chen Ke said.

But the killer is a gun that anyone can use. Whoever pays more can pull the trigger.

Chen Ke searched the Our Lady of Angels Hotel. The third target died tragically in room 2201. In order to sneak into the hotel, he also knocked out two outsiders and changed into a waiter's uniform.

According to common sense, this matter should be exposed first. However, no matter how Chen Ke searched online, he could not find any relevant information.

There was no news about the murder at the Our Lady of Angels Hotel. The man who was infected with psychic diseases and gained special abilities died quietly, as if no one cared.

Chen Ke pinched his chin. There were only two possibilities. Either Lester's employer covered up the incident, or the Psychic Administration blocked the news.

After all, the man was involved in the extraordinary level, and it was normal for the relevant departments to harmonize.

Moreover, judging from the incident of Heinard's wife, the Psychic Administration was not clean either. An organization that would treat prisoners as guinea pigs would not be surprised at what it did.

And the bank robbery that happened at noon today was also downplayed to some extent.

"The Prito Bank in the Holy Oak District was robbed at noon today, but the Opportunity City S.W.A.T responded quickly and controlled the development of the situation. The robber was shot dead while escaping. The bank only lost 2.6 million Union coins in this robbery, and all of them have been recovered."

The official website of the Opportunity City Daily described the bank robbery at noon today.

The news did not mention anything about the holy objects, and clearly pointed out that the robber had been shot dead, and emphasized that only Union coins were lost.

Chen Ke sighed. He had to admire the control of these capitals over the media. This is not just a question of what information can be seen, but a question of "who do you want to see what information".

Chen Ke shook his head. He knew that this was definitely not someone secretly helping the postman, but a promise made to the superiors in the face of greater fear.

Pritto Bank is where the S Consortium hoards psychic stolen goods, and it is a member of the "company". The green diamond is also hidden in that bank.

It is not difficult to imagine why this news is so humorous.

No matter whether the S Group knows that the Green Holy Diamond is hidden in the bank it controls, or whether it knows that the Holy Diamond has been stolen again.

It was obviously a very embarrassing thing that his own stolen goods warehouse was robbed. Combined with what Heinard said, in order to keep his seat in the "company", the S Group manipulated the media and repeatedly said that the loss of this robbery was just the most worthless "money".

It was like a child who made a mistake and lied to his parents.

Chen Ke turned off the computer, picked up the orange holy diamonds on the table, and looked at them in front of his eyes. They were the blasphemous daggers picked up in the bank, a total of seven!

Lin Mo was killed by this thing piercing his heart, and the entry of the dagger was missing.

Although he had learned the approximate function of the blasphemous dagger from Heinard, now he finally had the opportunity to see what the entry of the dagger was.

These daggers have been identified and do not require Chen Ke to consume extra life. In the bank, he only had time to take a quick glance. Now, he can calm down and take a closer look.

[Blame Dagger]

[Durability: Intact]

[Time Travel: After charging, kill the sacrifice to open a random time and space door] (Prerequisite: Killing Intent Link)

[Killing Intent Link: Absorb killing energy to recharge yourself] (Prerequisite: Trinity)

[Trinity: Sacrifice three lives to activate the Killing Intent Link] (Only once)

[The dagger from Vanheed, after being endowed with mysterious magic, has become an evil sacrificial vessel that allows the holder to travel through time and space. ]

["The evil magic attached to this dagger is older than the Vanheed Kingdom itself. Its source comes from the Dark Witch. If I can also have her power, then the entire time and space will surrender to me..." - Pope Mazwell]

Chen Ke's hand holding the small orange diamond trembled slightly...

The essence of the life countdown is actually a combination of killing intent link and time travel. In other words, Chen Ke is a human-shaped blasphemous dagger...
