Chapter 216

"Hehe, so you have already guessed it," Luodi laughed.

"Then it seems that I guessed right," Lu Lin also laughed, but it was a bitter smile, "and from what you said, this guy has a big reputation?"

"It is quite big. The Holy Church likes to let this guy come to the Land of Chaos to cause trouble. I have also faced him many times, but fortunately, he always forgets me anyway, so when he faces me, he is basically the only one who suffers," Luodi said, "But it is very difficult to kill him."

"Most of the so-called heroes may have endless life in theory when exploring the dungeon, but when dealing with people, it may not be the case."

"Since they will be resurrected if they are killed, then we will not kill them, but choose to seal or imprison them. As long as we don't let them return to the control of the Holy Church, for us, it is actually considered to have achieved our goal."

"But this guy is different. It may not be that difficult to kill him, but it is very difficult to catch him. It would be too difficult to catch him or even imprison him. "

As he said that, Luo Di put the crystal jar containing the bug on the table, pressed the top of the jar with one hand, and put his eyes close to it. While staring at the bug, he continued: "Where did you find this bug?"

"In the corpse pit outside," Lu Lin said, "My familiar pulled it out of the brain of a corpse."

"It's quite powerful, yes, this thing stays in the human brain," Luo Di nodded, "It can attach to the human brain and control the human's actions through some means that I don't understand. During this period, the person is still alive and conscious, but he can't control his body, and can't even control his facial expressions. From the surface, you may never realize that this person is being controlled. "

"This sounds disgusting," Lu Lin frowned.

"Very disgusting, this guy's methods, let's put it this way, even if I have seen so many people and so many things in my life, I have rarely met a bastard whose methods are more despicable than his," Luo Di said, "So I actually always wanted to catch this guy, but guess what, this guy also has this kind of bug in his brain."

"Huh?" Lu Lin was stunned, "Wait a minute, it won't be a setting that he is also controlled by the bug?"

"Setting? Strange statement, but it's not," Luo Di shook his head, "This kind of bug is obviously not from this world, but some kind of ability from another world. You can roughly understand it as some kind of Summoned beasts or familiars. "

"And this kind of worm, in fact, was only the one he kept in his brain at the beginning. Those he put into other people's brains were all the offspring of that worm, controlled by the mother body and maintaining contact with the mother body. "

"You did a good job of not killing this worm rashly. If you had killed it, the mother body should have been able to feel it now. "

"But it's best to send this thing back to its host body, otherwise it will die or be too close to the mother body, and it is still possible to be discovered. "

"That's it," Lu Lin nodded, turned his head and looked at the snow ferret beside him.

"Well, okay, I'll put it back for you," the snow ferret sighed, flew over to pick up the crystal jar, opened the bottle mouth, grabbed the worm, and then flew directly out of the window.

"Hehe, your familiar is still as interesting as ever," Luo Di watched the snow ferret leave and sighed softly, "It's a pity that even such a special creature can't remember me."

Lu Lin didn't know how to respond to this, scratched his head, and could only change the subject: "By the way, you haven't said why you can't catch him."

"Oh, yes, I forgot to say it," Luo Di smiled, "Didn't I just say that there is also a queen worm in his brain. That guy knows that as long as he dies, the Holy Church will resurrect him. So, if faced with the possibility of being caught, this guy will choose to let the worm in his brain kill him directly."

"He is really fearless," Lu Lin breathed a sigh of relief, "But I may have something that can get rid of him..."

"Huh? What is it?" Luo Di asked in confusion.

"This," Lu Lin said, took the wooden box beside him, and after opening it, there were ten bottles of golden potions.

This is the potion that the White Witch had Katen Teng give to Lu Lin, saying that it can awaken the soul trauma in the hearts of the heroes and let them see the true face of the Holy Church.

"Ah, Soul Past Potion, you actually have it here," Luo Di looked at the potion next to Lu Lin in surprise.

"Hey, do you recognize it?" Lu Lin was a little surprised.

"Don't underestimate me, I have dealt with the witch of the heroes before, and I thought she would never give this thing to others," Luo Di picked up a tube of potion and looked at it carefully, "It seems that it is still related to identity. You should be the only force led by aliens who are temporarily independent of her forces and act on their own?"

"Maybe, just based on what I know," Lu Lin nodded.

"Well... if we have this, it's indeed more likely, but it probably won't work on this guy," Luodi said, putting the potion in his hand back into the box, "As for why... because the witch's people have already tried it."

"Tried it? And failed? The potion didn't work?" Lu Lin was stunned.

"No, the potion worked, but unfortunately, it had no other effect except reminding that guy of his childhood embarrassment," said Luo Di. "That guy is a lunatic. The Holy Church has never helped him erase his memory, nor has it ever hypnotized him. He is doing things for the Holy Church completely on his own will."

"He is enjoying his immortality and doing whatever he wants without any bottom line."

Chapter 355 So, don't control fear improperly

"Ah? We are all going back?" Jack Zhengyi looked at Lu Lin in astonishment, "Why is that?"

"Because you can't deal with that guy's methods," Luo Di said very directly, "You don't want a bug to get into your brain for no reason, right?"

"Damn, is that thing so difficult to prevent?" Si Li frowned slightly.

"Yes, it's very difficult, because it's not something from this world at all," said Luodi, "Conventional magic perception is ineffective against it. As for other means, you may be able to defend against it for a while, but if you are always nervous because of this thing, it won't feel good, right?"

"Well, I understand the specific situation, but isn't this guy's ability too difficult to deal with?" Lan Jie looked depressed, "If this is sent to another country to cause damage, how disgusting it would be."

"This is a 'hero'," Luodi smiled, "Don't underestimate any hero. Half of the reason why the Holy Church is so strong now is because of them. If it weren't for the emergence of the dungeon, they were forced to put most of the heroes into the handling of the dungeon. It is estimated that the territory would be even larger than it is now."

"Is there no way to deal with him?" Xiulinsi asked, "His ability is too unreasonable."

"Yes, that is to reduce your own target as much as possible, let the team stay in the dark, and then find him and kill him directly," Luodi said "Although the Holy Church can revive him after killing him, it will take a long time from his resurrection to the cultivation of the mother worm and then the breeding of enough larvae. During this period, he will not have time to make trouble. This is one of his shortcomings. Fortunately, he has this shortcoming. Otherwise, I will tell you the truth. Just relying on him alone, he can probably make the chaotic land a mess."

"So you plan to go to Ken'ermi with only three people?" Si Li asked, "But isn't the other party's target Limi? Even if there are few people, they may be targeted, right?"

"Don't worry about this. I have a way for us to enter the city quietly," Luo Di said, "I can even send an ordinary earth dragon into the city, but no more."

"I understand," Jack Zhengyi nodded, "So during this period, should we go back to my master or go to the Infinite Church?"

"There's nothing to do at your master's place. Let's go to Lanyelin. We'll take over the new city and clean it up first, so that we can settle the three big guys down," Si Li said.

After that, everyone discussed some details and finally divided the team into two sides temporarily.

On one side were Lulin, Limi and Luodi, who rode Lulin's earliest earth dragon into the city.

This earth dragon also had some of Lulin's alchemical equipment. Although it was not as complete as the large earth dragon, it could at least be used.

The others went to Lanye Forest first to take over the independent city-state that the Infinite Church promised to give them, so that they could do some preliminary work during this period.

Watching the back of the large earth dragon leaving, Lulin, standing on the balcony, touched his chin.

Recently, he was used to the bustle, and suddenly it became deserted around him, and he was really a little uncomfortable.

"A brave man who enjoys immortality..." Lulin murmured unconsciously.

Sure enough, there are such people.

Is it because his way of death is more pleasant than others, and he can't even feel pain and fear, so he behaves like this?

So, if he can experience other less pleasant ways of death, how will he feel...

Hmm.

Maybe it's useless. I guess his hatred will only be directed at the people who brought him such pain, not at the Holy Church that gave him infinite life.

"I always feel that he is a guy who can't be won over," Lu Lin sighed.

"You don't really expect that all the so-called aliens will stand on our side, right?" The voice of the snow mink came from Lu Lin's hat.

"Haha, you are right, this group is not small, it is impossible for all of them to be friends," Lu Lin smiled, "Well, speaking of it, A Mink, let me ask you something."

"Let me guess, you want to ask me if I can pull the worm out of his brain?" Snow Mink asked.

"You guessed it right," Lu Lin laughed.

"Well, it's a pity that it's not very good. Doing that to a living person will kill him," said Snow Mink.

"Really, well, even you can't do anything about it," Lu Lin sighed.

"Don't worry, who said I have no other way," Snow Ferret changed the subject, "I just said I can't pull that thing out, but it doesn't mean I have no other way to deal with it."

"Huh? For example, can you strangle it to death in someone's brain?" Lu Lin asked.

"Maybe, but there are risks. That's in the brain. If this thing struggles or tightens its body before death, or sprays something out, it may kill the person directly, so that's not what I'm talking about," the ferret said, shaking its tail. "I did a little experiment when I went out just now. Guess what, I found that these little things are actually quite timid."

"It's not easy to remove them from the brain, but it's not impossible to scare them so much that they dare not move, or even faint."

Hearing this, Lu Lin's eyes widened at first, and then gradually narrowed.

At this moment, a plan that had only a vague outline before has slowly become clear in his mind.

————

————

A few dozen minutes later, the earth dragon that Lu Lin and others rode arrived at Ken'ermier City.

The person responsible for guiding the earth dragon was Luo Di, and the situation when entering the city was the same as Luo Di said before, no one noticed them.

They seemed to have disappeared from the crowd of city dwellers, and no one had ever looked at them.

But it seemed that these people knew of their existence, and would not bump into them as if they were really invisible, and would even give way to them.

It felt more like they had become the most common scenery in the city, just like the weeds on the roadside. Everyone knew they were here, but no one would pay attention to them, and no one would remember them.

Even though Lu Lin and others' earth dragons had stopped at the open space of the earth dragon commercial street, the city residents who had always been very interested in new earth dragon shops did not look at them even once because of their arrival.

"We are here," Luo Di, who had put away the guide rod, entered the house, "I am not familiar with this place, tell me where you think we should start?"

"Let's go see the old leader of the Yanfeng Gang first," Lu Lin said, "To be honest, I am a little worried whether he is still alive."

Chapter 356 Poison? Isn't this a professional match?

Lu Lin originally thought that when Luo Di went to investigate intelligence, he would either choose to go with them or let them stay in the earth dragon and go alone.

But Lu Lin never expected that Luo Di would choose the third option.

Instead of taking Lu Lin and Li Mi, he took Lu Lin's snow ferret with him.

As for the reason, it was very sufficient.

Not taking Lu Lin, because the enemy's individual strength was too exaggerated, even if he was there, there was no way to guarantee that he would not be discovered if he sneaked in with Lu Lin.

Even if he was alone, if he happened to run into the opponent's brave or cutting-edge combat power, he might be discovered.

He was not the target of others, and if he was discovered, he was discovered. He was not afraid of a fight, but if Lu Lin and Li Mi were discovered, the nature of the situation would be completely different.

As for why he took the snow ferret, it was because the snow ferret, as a "soul", was the only special individual among them that could see whether there were bugs in other people's brains without contacting others, and taking it with him could obtain more intelligence.

While they were away, Lu Lin cleaned up his alchemy room.

Since the new alchemy room was built, Lu Lin had not used the old alchemy room for a long time, and all the equipment was basically covered with dust.

Lu Lin spent almost the entire second day cleaning and debugging the equipment. When he was almost done that evening, Luo Di finally came back with the snow ferret.

According to him, he visited all the places in the city that were easier to investigate. Of course, the areas related to the Yanfeng Gang were the focus of the investigation.

And the results of the investigation...

"According to your servant, the current activity area and business of the Yanfeng Gang seem to be no different from the past," Luo Di said, "but almost everyone has a worm in their brain."

"Damn it," Lu Lin's forehead jumped, "Where did he get so many worms? Doesn't it cost money?"

"No money, just time," Luo Di said, "Speaking of which, it has been a long time since I heard that he has been active. For such a long time, the reserve of offspring worms should be quite sufficient."

"It's really weird," Lu Lin sat up a little straighter, "But speaking of this, I have a question. He has so many offspring worms to parasitize the members of the Yanfeng Gang. Why did he kill so many of their family members to control them?"

"Because he can control a limited number of offspring worms at the same time," Luo Di said, "I also talked to you before I've said it before, this guy is very rough in his work, including the use of his abilities. "

"He doesn't like to study ways to control a large number of offspring parasites through psychological suggestion, and prefers to use the simplest and crudest methods. "

"Either give simple instructions to the parasites directly through the offspring worms, or directly take over the control of the parasites' bodies. "

"It's indeed easier, but the disadvantage is that he can't naturally control a large number of targets at the same time, so when there is such a need, he usually adds some auxiliary means. "

"Well... However, since he didn't change the pattern of the Yanfeng Gang," Lu Lin muttered, touching his chin, "In other words, he wants to pretend that nothing happened here? Is he going to wait for me to come to him?"

"Hmm, obviously, yes," Luo Di nodded.

"You obviously planned to wait for me to come to your door, but then you killed someone and threw him outside the city?" Lu Lin frowned, "This job is a bit rough, isn't it? There can't be any fraud, right?"

"Maybe there is, maybe not," said Luo Di. "When you deal with more people, you will find that not everyone in this world will be as considerate as possible, especially those who have strong ability and power to rely on. If you get used to being dissolute and looked down upon by everyone, your methods of doing things will become more and more crude. "

"Are you really not going to suffer a loss?" Lu Lin asked.

"Of course, some people will change even if they suffer a small loss, while some will only hate the person who made them suffer," Luo Di said.

"Where's the big loss?" Lu Lin asked again.

"What a big loss, haha, you'll die if you eat it," Luo Di shrugged, "But the guy we have to deal with this time is even more special. After all, he doesn't care about death at all. In the past, he already ate it in my hands without knowing it. I have lost money many times, but I have never corrected it, and I have never cared.”

"But... you are right, we still have to give it a try. He will definitely not do this kind of mission alone. If he is actually a chess piece instead of a chess player, the situation will be different."

"No, I think that no matter he is a chess piece or a chess player, we have to be cautious," Lu Lin said. "He can fail countless times, but as long as we let him win once, then we will completely lose." "You can never ignore the possibility that he will change his behavior."

"Hey..." As soon as he said this, Luo Di raised his eyebrows slightly, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face, "You are the type to think like this. It's interesting and a very good habit, but don't go too far, otherwise it will be restrained. He killed his own hands and feet.”

"I understand," Lu Lin nodded, "By the way, apart from the situation of the Yanfeng Gang, did you find anything else?"

"Well, there is a big change." This time Luo Di did not speak, but Ferret spoke first, "The other two gangs in the city seem to have merged."

"Merged?" Lu Linyi frowned, "At this time? Is it because the Yanfeng Gang is putting too much pressure?"

"I'm not sure, but it's very strange. According to the situation I mixed up before, the top leaders of the two groups should have been sworn enemies, but now they seem to have a good relationship," said Ferret. "I was in a closed We found them in the tavern and had a great time drinking and breeding together.”
