25

Belial took off the bandages wrapped around his hands one by one, and looked carefully at the light.The regeneration of severed limbs is the most time-consuming one among the many wounds. In addition, even if his hand is injured, he has to be busy communicating during this time, so the recovery is slower than before.But now that the restoration was complete, he clenched his hand into a fist and let it go.Then he turned around and went to the corner of the dimly lit room, and opened the box.

A petri dish was placed tightly in the box, and a small ball emitting a faint black light floated inside.The ball was held in place by various tubes, beating like a heart connected to blood vessels.He leaned against the table and sat down, as if whispering to the ball without any sensory organs: "Fasan, the plan is going well?"

Of course, no voice answered him.

"The next step is to find a way to get Babsang out. Test whether it can be well integrated with the body... Ha, Fasan. Although I don't think you will miscalculate. But as long as I think of this possible development direction, I can I can't feel good."

His head was slightly tilted, and he pressed against the cold side wall of the petri dish: "If the fusion fails, if Fasan's resurrection cannot be achieved..."

Before he finished speaking, he laughed to himself again.

"Oops." He stroked the outer wall of the petri dish, his fingers that hadn't touched anything were very sensitive, and carefully stroked the glass: "Fasan, you must want to beat me up? I'm sorry, sorry, but you have to hurry up Wake up and beat me up?"

Not long after he finished speaking, one of the many mobile phones on the table rang.He sealed the box again, then walked over to answer the phone.

"Ready." There was only a low voice from the opposite side.

Belial smiled silently, and then said in a very serious tone: "In order to strengthen the future of people. The attack begins."

This morning in Canaan began with the sound of gunfire.

Lucifer stood up from the chair without any surprise.He finally waited for the doomed rebellion a week after the murder.

Reports from several captains came from the headset: "Enemy figures appear in the northwest area, and the number is within the estimated range." "A support gun squad is confirmed, and the members are expanding." "Reinforcements appear on the sea surface and are expected to arrive within the range of the sea within an hour "...... Listening to the many reports, Lucifer gave the command: "Follow the original plan to counterattack, and the first to complete the task in this area will immediately support the surrounding area. The attack on the sea will be postponed, and they will be caught alive after they go ashore. "

"Yes."

"Has Belial's whereabouts been confirmed?"

"Not yet observed."

"Keep watching. I'm going to the Ethics Court."

"Yes."

He picked up the gun placed by the door, checked his equipment, and walked out the door.

For Lucifer, finding the rebels was not difficult at all.The purpose of the rebel army is to strengthen the improvement of human status, so they will naturally attack the dense human ethics association, and some of them should go to the director's office to find themselves.This part of the rebel army is not within Lucifer's worry range, he is more worried that the place where he is not will become the location of Belial's attack.His choice for this was to clear out the main rebels as quickly as possible.The moment he appeared near the ethics court, he immediately heard the sound of bullets and command layout.Lucifer arched his body slightly, gathered his strength, and rushed out with the gun in his hand.The other party also anticipated his actions: "It's Lucifer! Close formation... Ugh!"

Before the commander's words fell, Lucifer had already appeared in the simple trenches piled up by the enemy like a white lightning, and the gun was pointed at the opponent's head and the trigger was pulled.Then, before a few enhanced men turned their guns around, they grabbed one with one hand, smashed their heads together, and threw them out.The incapacitated body blocked the bullets fired from other trenches like a shield, and Lucifer rushed out again.He jumped into the second trench before the body hit the ground.

All of a sudden, the square screamed one after another, and it didn't take a few minutes for Lucifer to tear through their formation by himself, and was still advancing towards the center at a rapid speed.Some of the farthest enhanced people panicked, and then someone rushed to arrest the human beings: "Lucifer! Stop immediately! Otherwise we will kill the hostages!"

"The priority of suppressing rebellion in Canaan is higher than the lives of individual human beings." Lucifer responded: "What you do will only make you face heavier punishment in the future."

"Stop talking nice words! Aren't you partial to humans!"

Lucifer's answer was to raise his hand and shoot in that direction.This shot was not aimed at the hostages, the distance was too far, and the enemy also dodged.But the determination expressed is already very strong, compared with the attitude of the rebels who dare not shoot into their own formation to avoid accidental injury.Lucifer, who was alone, really had no worries, if necessary, he would personally kill all the hostages.His attitude obviously made the enemy shaken, and then the few enhanced people closest to him switched their action modes, and they drew their knives and started rushing towards him continuously.Soon Lucifer's gun shooting speed couldn't keep up with the speed of the crowd, and he was swallowed by the stream of people like ants.They seemed to have rehearsed this possibility, grabbing each other's arms to trap Lucifer in a planned way, like a hill made of human flesh, blocking Lucifer inside.

"Bomb! Bomb! Put the bomb here!" A shout came from the center of the chaos, and someone immediately took out the grenade.But before throwing it out, the crowd that was almost piled up into a hill suddenly jumped up because of something.The few people at the top were shocked: "Ah?!"

"Aha--!"

An inconceivable force erupted from under that "mountain", as if being hit by some cannon, and the tightly bound crowd that trapped Lucifer just now were blown away.The net-like structure that was held by the hands fell apart in the air, and people fell from the air exaggeratedly like rain.Lucifer stood up, threw the empty gun on the ground, and drew out the knife at his waist.

"If it's possible, I hope you'd better give up resisting." His voice didn't change, and his clothes were only slightly skewed: "If that was your emergency response just now, it's enough to reflect your level. I don't want to see to the unnecessary consumption of compatriots."

"Oh oh oh oh oh - Lucifer! Why!"

Accompanied by the sound of a string of bullets being emptied, Lucifer moved the knife aside, and there was a loud clattering sound of metal clashing.But this blow seemed to have some effect, Lucifer also took a small step back, and then he saw a surprising face, so he didn't hit the opponent back, but just staggered his strength to force him back.The person who came over fell on a piece of gravel and roared angrily: "Get out of here!"

"Asachel, it's your style to appear here." Lucifer didn't move, and still maintained a posture ready to continue fighting at any time.Asachel's angry face was distorted: "The intentions of all the compatriots here are for the future and happiness, and even better for yourself. It's impossible for you not to understand!"

"I understand. But that's not why I would let the rebellion go."

"Ahhh, damn it! You are such a bad person! Originally, I wanted to avoid you and just show you the result. Hey Lucifer! What's so good about human beings?!"

"Are you going to be here, and discuss this with me? If you all lay down your arms. I'll consider cutting into the conversation."

Asachel seemed to be gnashing his teeth, he stared at Lucifer, and then suddenly pulled out an obviously modified gun from his military uniform: "Then beat you down and shoot you Kidnapped! Anyway, the result is the same, in order to strengthen the future of people—"

Lucifer saw his fingers preparing to pull the trigger, and immediately prepared to fight back.But before he rushed out, something strange happened to Asachel's gun.That silver gun with a strong sense of subtlety was undoubtedly aimed at Lucifer's vitals, and it was also capable of firing.But after the bang, everyone saw the gun spit out a rose with a bang.

This almost funny scene stunned everyone present, including Asachel himself.After a few seconds of silence, he didn't seem to be able to react. He stared blankly at the gun that suddenly turned into a toy and slowly withdrew his hand: "... What about the special bullet? Huh? Beryl clearly said that it can A special pistol that paralyzes and strengthens human nerves..."

This ridiculous blow seemed to have too much impact on him.Before he was able to organize the next wave of offensive, Lucifer had already appeared in front of his eyes, and the hilt of the knife hit his stomach hard.Asachel was directly sent flying, and a row of machines appeared at the other end of the chaotic square.Lucifer put away the knife: "Shoot."

Accompanied by the sound of crackling bullets, the originally large number of enhanced people began to fall down.It was very difficult for the rebels whose morale had been demoralized by Lucifer to regroup, but some of the outermost ones still held up bulletproof shields—it was just very strange, those shields were flimsy and weird.Lucifer retreated behind a few bunkers to observe, it shouldn't be like this, even if the rebels had no combat experience, it shouldn't be this kind of one-sided defeat like cutting leeks.If the shooting continues for a while, the rebels will probably be completely wiped out.If this batch is bait, it will be easy to understand.To Belial, these pieces in front of him are just pawns to attract firepower, are they rooks?horse?or phase?No... I'm afraid it's just a "soldier".

"Medical troops, recover the seriously wounded." Lucifer pressed the headset to convey an order, and left the battlefield that had become a foregone conclusion.Bellier has another trick.With 12 points of vigilance, he raided several places he thought were dangerous, but they all missed.

This evasion continued until the battle was all over.Lucifer still couldn't recover.He fought a lot today, but almost all of them were meaningless battles.Belial sent hundreds of untrained Enhancers over to launch a so-called rebellion with outdated or even inferior equipment.Although these hundreds of enhanced people are enough to form an invincible force in human society, but when they are sent to Canaan, it is impossible for Belial not to know that this is to send them to death.Is this what he has been waiting for for so many days?A rebellion that was quickly suppressed?If he had known this was the case, he didn't even need to send Sandalphin away, he just needed to let him sleep at home and it would be over.

That's right, after sleeping, the rebellion lasted only for sleeping.The reinforcements sent by the sea were also of low quality and lacked command. They were captured alive by Gabriel and all the ships were confiscated.And Belial never showed up from the beginning to the end.Lucifer immediately organized an interrogation of the captives, but there was only one piece of information that came out of the interrogation, the rebels were indeed organized by Beryl.But after the battle, Belial was like a gecko with a broken tail, leaving nothing but dozens of calls that couldn't get through.

It wasn't just him who was wondering. After knowing that Belial was still alive, Michael, who was a bit aggressive, had made more circles in the whole of Canaan than him today. .But she also missed.Right now they are a little speechless towards the captured rebels.A few digits of the rebels escaped, and a few died in the conflict.But most of them are just injured to varying degrees. Human beings are very fragile. They will die if they are shot, beaten, or poisoned, but strengthened people will not.After they were injected with deactivation potions, they just fell in disorder on the square at the main entrance of Canaan.

Uriel spoke straightforwardly, and when everyone was silently wondering, he directly said his thoughts: "What kind of thing is this? Belial is out of his mind? Isn't this just calling your compatriots to die?"

"...It's indeed much lighter than expected, rebellion." Gabriel murmured: "To be honest, you don't even need to use your strengths to make a move. Only Canaan's automatic defense can probably resist it. 80.00% None of the above systems were even triggered..."

"It's pointless to speculate on that guy's thoughts." Michael gritted his teeth and squeezed out the words: "No matter what the cunning is thinking, as long as he dares to show up, I will definitely take him to the trial court. Now whether it is him Whether you are provoking or have other plans, the rebellion has been suppressed."

"Check the damage." Lucifer frowned, was he overthinking?Of course he couldn't know the answer.But anyway, this uproar involving heightened human unease was disastrously resolved in the worst possible way.From now on, Canaan should return to its original state: "...The martial law will not be lifted for the time being, and it will be kept for a while just in case."

"Yes."

"Director, the handling of prisoners..."

"Heal them first and keep them incapacitated." Lucifer said briefly: "Take them in Canaan. I will report to the Ethics Court. For this number of people, it will take some time to deal with the aftermath. Humans can't handle that many augmented humans."

"Yes."

After the arrangements were made, Lucifer finally breathed a sigh of relief.His first reaction was to go back to the atrium, but before he could take a step, he had already lost this idea.It doesn't make sense to go there now, it's no longer a special, resting place.The director's office was damaged, so Lucifer simply dealt with follow-up affairs in the hall of the research institute.Until about 11 o'clock in the evening, the basic damage verification was completed.Lucifer was holding a stack of reports and was about to check, when Harut found him: "Director, there is something special."

Lucifer entrusted them to monitor all information related to Lucifer's legacy, and report to himself any changes.Therefore, seeing a single Harut appearing here, his heart sank.But Harut quickly leaned over and whispered: "Lucifer's legacy is safe, but the 14th district management office guarded by Azrael and Isfiel has been stolen. Three cores have been lost."

The 14th district, that is to say, the "core" of Beelzebub was stolen.That's what all of Bellier's fanfare and commotion was about?But Lucifer didn't intend to pursue these three cores.He had already cut off the power supply of those three cores and copied the samples, and now those cores are nothing more than delicate machines.It doesn't matter if Belial wants to take it away for research. Anyway, he already has the information left by Lucifer in his hand. Even if he doesn't take away the core, he will develop the same thing sooner or later.He nodded to show that he knew the news: "Go back to your post."

"The second thing is that there is a connection from Eden."

Lucifer raised his head, silently waiting for her to speak.

"It's a secret communication from Mr. Lucio. He wants to know privately everything that happened in Canaan since the change of director, so he invites you to attend the reception in Augustley three days later. The reason why I want you to be there in person is because... ..."

She paused: "Sandall found it."

Lucifer's expression didn't change, as if what he heard was just a trivial matter, he nodded silently in the busy hall: "Reply to him and I will be there." Harut told him After bowing, he left.He continued to look down at the previous report, but felt a little distracted, a rare inability to concentrate.He took a deep breath, and then said to a staff member next to him, "Sorry, can you do something for me?"

"Yes! What are your orders?"

"Don't be nervous. Can you buy me a can of coffee, please?"

He muttered to himself, and he didn't know whether to say to himself or to others: "I suddenly want to drink coffee very much."

————————————————————

For Sandalphin, he never expected that his life after fleeing would be so... relaxed.

"Lucio." He stared angrily at Lucio who was frying bacon in high spirits and humming a song: "I've already told everything I know about Canaan, what about you? You said you want to talk to me , where are the chats? And didn't you say you were busy?"

"Oh, Xiao Sheng. Now is not the time to be in a hurry." Lucio slowly put the bacon into two plates, and then started to fry the eggs: "I did say before that I wanted to talk to you as soon as possible, but then I thought about it. This is not right, if I said something to you when you were mentally unstable and affected you, it would be my crime. But please rest assured, I have no intention of hiding it from you. "

He scrambled the eggs into beautiful poached eggs and set out two plates with the bacon, one of which he handed to Sandalphin: "Here, breakfast."

Sun Defen didn't answer, he frowned: "My spirit is very stable."

"Then little saint." Lucio said, "What are you so anxious about?"

Sandalphin knew that it was a better choice for him to hide here. Lucio was indeed helping him keep the secret of his whereabouts, and he didn't mind how long he stayed here.There are no pursuers behind, and there are people who can communicate in front of you, so there is really nothing to worry about.But it is definitely not this kind of flat, relaxed life.

He stayed in Lucio's private house for two days, doing almost nothing.Lucio's private house has many guest rooms without servants, and there are many red dragon-shaped dolls piled up inside.The dolls made the room feel very similar to Lucio, warm and cute, but everything was covered up.This made it easy for Sandalphin to think that when he was in the atrium, he couldn't help being a little angry.

Seeming to be aware of Sandalphin's anxiety, Lucio said calmly: "Actually, the suspension of the conversation is related to the research on the earphones. I can confirm it after hearing how you got the earphones. This pair of earphones is completely Lucifer's." Handwriting, although it should not be something he specially made, and it is still very rough, but it is functional enough. It can indeed bring about serious mental effects, but I still need to observe the specific effects."

He pointed at Sandalphin: "So Xiao Sheng, you are actually cooperating with me in conducting an experiment. As a reward for information exchange, I say this, can you accept it?"

Sandalphin hesitated, took the plate that Lucio had been serving before: "I think you are delaying my time."

"For what?" Lucio asked with a smile, "Is there any benefit for me?"

no good.Or Sandalphin can't think of any good.So I can only give up.He sat down at the table with a plate and stuffed the food into his mouth.Lucio sat down at the other end of the table: "Don't worry, this observation will end tomorrow. Tomorrow there will be an internal reception between Eden and various forces in this city. I have observed you for the past two days. The reaction when not in contact with the outside world can be completed by watching the reaction in contact with the outside world tomorrow. After that, I will immediately answer the questions you want to ask.”

He gracefully cut the bacon with a knife and fork: "Have you tried many times in the past two days? I want to learn about human society from me. Ah... how should I put it, Xiao Sheng, you asked everything. It’s too confidential. I can’t say what I know, what I can say about Lucifer is actually better than what I know. Especially about human’s attitude towards enhanced people—Xiaosheng, I’m just a mere investor, although He is Lucifer's brother, but my brother may not have spoken ten sentences to me over the years."

"Don't try to fool me." San Defen blocked him back mercilessly: "I have never left Canaan, so it's not that I don't have knowledge. I can see the scale of Canaan's capital flow. Without your kind and Small investors with connections all over the world.”

"Hey - I even make my own breakfast, I thought it looked very ordinary."

He didn't know whether he said some off-line words sincerely or deliberately, and then lowered his head to eat.Sandalphin glanced out the window, there were trees all around, and it was very secluded here, even a bit too secluded for a mansion.Therefore, he thinks that doing everything by himself is mostly Lucio's hobby, and he is too lazy to compete with him on such details: "In short, I will wait until tomorrow."

"I won't let you down." Lucio said: "Even if you can't ask me anything, you can still test others when the big people gather together. It's just Xiaosheng, I don't know what your purpose is. What. Would you mind telling me about it?"

"Mind." Sandalphin abruptly blocked the topic.

"It seems that both of us have unspeakable difficulties. I understand." Lucio finished eating the bacon, and then took out a bottle of juice from the side: "Then during the reception, I will claim that you are my relative. Saint, you can cooperate, no problem?"

"I don't know anything about you. Can you pretend to be your relative? Let me tell you first, I will definitely communicate with other people. After all, I still need information. If I reveal the truth, I can't get it back. Only escape on the spot."

"You needn't worry about that. I'm ready."

With a slight force of his knife, he cut through the yolk of the soft-boiled egg.

"People who can answer your questions, and people who can answer my questions."
