You've become the warden, and you're telling me I'm an undercover agent?

Chapter 122 Falsehood and Truth

"The Ten Elders were established in imitation of the Ten-Faced God."

Sun Teng, one of the ten elders, said that he was in a miserable state now.

A small part of his face had been torn off from left to right.

In his left eye socket, his round eyeball was filled with fear, and every time he spoke, one could clearly see the muscles on his face moving.

And, the left half of the teeth.

The left half of his face was still drooping on his head. When he shook his head a little more, his face trembled with it.

The bright red blood had seeped from his face to the entire left half of his body. He collapsed on the ground, every nerve in his body wailing.

Although Wei San hadn't tortured anyone for many years, it seemed that his skills were still quite good.

Half of his face was cut off, but he was neither dead nor had his skin broken.

Wei San had heard before that mercury could be used to peel off the entire human skin, but he didn't know if it was a rumor.

He had never had the opportunity to experiment, and for the Canjin Chamber of Commerce, which made him grit his teeth and hate it so much that it was engraved in his bones, he was very patient and thoughtful.

"What is the Ten-Faced God?"

Wei San asked.

The tools he used for skinning were all his own bones, any size he wanted, extremely sharp, and very handy.

"I'm not sure—"

As soon as the Tenth Elder uttered these words, he felt a sharp spatula scraping between his skin and flesh. The pain of his flesh touched his soul.

“I really don’t know!!!”

He shouted wildly, but Wei San ignored him and only stopped after all the skin on his nose was scraped off.

"Then you continue." Wei San said.

Sun Teng was an ordinary person, so in order to let him enjoy himself, Wei San even injected him with a little bit of Life Potion 2.0.
"The Ten-Faced God is a deity in Fanyang's local mythology. He has five heads and ten faces."

Wei San imagined the appearance of the Ten-Faced God. There were five heads with a face on the front and back, which means ten faces, the Ten-Faced God.

He looked at the half of Sun Teng's face that had been peeled off.

"So you are now a demigod—"

Wei San jokingly said, "If you don't behave yourself, you might become the Faceless God."

Although it was just a joke, Sun Teng felt a chill that went straight to his bones.

He continued tremblingly:

"The ten faces of the Decadent God represent ten different abilities, with two abilities being the positive and negative sides of each other."

"What does it mean to be the positive and negative sides of each other?" Wei San asked.

"Among the Ten-Faced Gods, there are three pairs of abilities, namely:
“Life and death;

“The past and the future;

"Reality and illusion, they are two opposite directions."

Sun Teng endured the severe pain and fear and looked at Wei San with his remaining eye. But he saw that Wei San was also lost in thought.

If this was the first simulation of "City Hunting," and Wei San was ambushed by He Ku, and had witnessed He Ku's life-sucking abilities, then he would most likely have guessed:

Le Bai and He Ku are just two personalities in one body, and their abilities are opposite to each other.

However, Wei San had never seen He Ku's abilities in the simulations that were put into practice, so the information he could extract from them was limited.

And if Chi Ping were here, he would naturally think of the two abilities representing "past and future" and the old man named Shi Lai whom he met on the high-speed train.

But, none of that at this moment.

"These are only six. What about the other four abilities?" Wei San asked.

"I don't know. No one told me." Sun Teng said this and then denied it several times. He was afraid that Wei San would attack again.

"What does this have to do with you, the Ten Elders? Just a 'Ten' next to each other?"

Wei San raised his eyebrows and said.

"Because the Ten Elders System was created by the 'One Face' of the Ten-Faced God, the entire Canjin Chamber of Commerce was established by him."

Sun Teng weakly told the shocking news.

The mastermind behind the murder of his family has been found. Wei San is in a very complicated mood at this moment. Even though his family has been destroyed by this person, the other party doesn't even remember him.

A huge rage was rising in his heart. If possible, he would like to use all the torture methods he knew on the other person. Then use the life potion to revive him, and do it a billion times!

"Didn't you say it was a deity from Fanyang's local mythology? How did it become real again?"

"I guess gods are just powerful people with special abilities." Sun Teng replied.

"When did the myths arise? Have they lived this long?"

"My grandfather heard about it when he was a child, but we don't know exactly when."

"You are so useless. Look how many times have you said you don't understand? Don't you know?"

Sun Teng was so frightened that he said nothing, fearing that Wei San would not give him any face at all.

Fortunately, Wei San did not continue to embarrass him, but asked:

"Which 'side' founded the Chanjin Chamber of Commerce? What abilities did they possess?"

"Reality and illusion, one is called Zheng Yan, the other is called Jia Yu."

"Where are they?"

"Fanyang Federal Prison, but there are certain requirements for the timing of entry."

Wei San was waiting when the other side suddenly stopped.

"You can't tell it yourself? Do you need someone to chime in?"

Sun Teng shuddered and said quickly:

"When the prison's falsehood overshadows the truth, you can enter. If you enter at other times, you will only fall into Jia Yu's power and see only the falsehood."

"Be more specific about the time!"

"I don't know either! I was only taken in once, when I became one of the Tenth Elder."

Sun Teng had a sad face.

"What about the other ten elders?"

Wei San asked.

------

Elsewhere, Ikehira finished interrogating Fuda.

As for prison, to sum it up, you spend most of your time in there in a daze, doing repetitive things.

I feel like a puppet, but every evening I become awake for a moment.

Maybe it’s because the exercise time is around dusk.

Fu Da knew very little about the Ten Elders, but he did know where Sun Teng, one of the Ten Elders, had been.

There are three places I frequently visit:

One is in his home;

The second is the rich girl’s apartment;
The third is the prison. He seems to be very familiar with the warden Jia Yu.

Chi Ping was silent for a moment, then threw the Fuda to Cang Ran and turned away.

The moon was already high in the sky, and the night wind was blowing the executioner's windbreaker, making a rustling sound.

Such strong winds are rarely seen in the hilly areas of Fanyang City.

The sky was overcast, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse. Compared to the heat of the past few days, today was a bit cooler.

Behind him, Fuda's screams were heard from the dense forest, and his voice echoed in the night sky.

Chi Ping took off the mask on his face, letting the moonlight pour down on it. He never smoked, but having a cigarette at this moment was more appropriate.

Not long after, Mang called.

Her voice was hurried and a little panicked.

The first words I said when I answered the phone were:

"A lot of people died. A few days ago, on the high-speed train coming from Star City, a lot of people died!"
