Chapter 859 God's Bait

In the narrow and dim corridor,
The confrontation between the two men was like a fierce collision of two forces in a narrow space, filling the air with a heavy sense of tension.

Jiang Menghan's eyes were as cold and clear as the moonlight.

She opened her red lips slightly, and in an instant, the space in the corridor seemed to be distorted by an invisible force.

Light and shadow intersect,

Jiang Menghan's figure suddenly disappeared from the spot, leaving only a faint afterimage of moonlight.

[Extraordinary Characteristics: Artemis - Moonlight - Mirror of Haze]

Inoue Hiha's reaction was as fast as lightning. Although her sensory deprivation ability had been broken, her instinct as an assassin made her realize that danger was approaching at the first moment.

However, even if she tried to predict Jiang Menghan's movements, it was impossible for her to capture the figure that had no track but was flashing directly in the space.

This is an absolutely asymmetric battle.

The situation has completely reversed!

But the next second, just as she turned around to look for him, Jiang Menghan had quietly appeared behind her. The short blade in his hand, flashing with cold light, cut through the air like a crescent moon, pointing directly at Inoue Hiyu's vital points.

The female killer moved her body to the side, narrowly avoiding the attack, and at the same time, she displayed a sharp dagger in her hand, counterattacking swiftly and fiercely.

The two engaged in a close combat in the narrow corridor.

The metallic collision sound of the moonlight short blade and the dagger, and the sound of their fast-moving footsteps,
Echoing in the silent corridor,
This constitutes the background music of this battle.

Relying on the spatial ability of the moonlight spectrum, Jiang Menghan constantly disappeared and reappeared in Inoue Feiyu's sight.

Try to use the ever-changing space to confuse the opponent.

And Inoue Hiwa, with his excellent assassination skills, is always able to find loopholes to counterattack at critical moments.

The transitions between the two's offense and defense involved both a contest of skills and a collision of power at extremely close range.

But even so, the eyes of the ice girl were completely filled with the indifference of the eternal moonlight, and she continued to leave wounds on Inoue Hiyu.

The outcome of the death match was already moving towards a one-sided trend.

But just as the battle was heating up,

The entire hull suddenly shook violently, as if it was shaken by some huge force.

at the same time,

The lights in the corridor suddenly went out. This time it was not due to Su Wen's remote operation, but because the sudden black tide of the abyss escalated again.

This sudden change stunned both of them and disrupted the rhythm of the battle.

Jiang Menghan's heart trembled. The strong aura of the black tide made her very clear that this was not a trap set by Inoue Feiyu:
But there is a good chance that Inoue Hiha will fight for a chance to escape in the darkness and chaos.

So the Iceberg Girl did not panic, but quickly adjusted her breathing and used her perception ability in the lunar spectrum to try to capture Inoue Hiba's breath in the dark.

just,

When the perception of space spreads,
Jiang Menghan had already discovered that Inoue Feiyu had quietly disappeared at the end of the corridor in the darkness and the shaking of the ship.

finally,
The shaking of the ship gradually subsided.
The lights gradually came back on, but the corridor was empty. Only Jiang Menghan was left standing there. She gently placed her left hand to her ear:

"Mr. Su,

She ran away.

What now?

And Su Wen just responded with a gentle smile:

"Expectations always happen unexpectedly.
Let’s put aside the matter of the Lawrence Riel radicals for now, we have bigger problems.”

"Kuroshio?"

"Ah."

Su Wen looked at the red data on the display. He slowly put on his black windbreaker and walked into the darkness. Under the influence of the black tide, the program of the Quindenian architecture can be said to be completely useless unless there is a strong anti-interference method.

It's time for him to take action himself.

At this moment, the handsome scholar finally opened his fourth contact:

"Perod, can you hear me?"

At the same time, with the help of his familiarity with the terrain, Inoue Hiba finally escaped from the battlefield while covering the wound on his arm.

At this moment, after witnessing Jiang Menghan's fighting style that was beyond understanding.

Although she didn't know why Inoue Kiyozumi didn't leave any trace, she finally understood why her sister lost.

Blood seeped through her fingers, completely staining her sleeves red.

But this vicious female killer had no time to care about the pain at the moment. She just gritted her teeth and relied on her familiarity with the cabin structure to move quickly in the dark environment.

The lights in the corridor flickered.
It seemed to add a sense of mystery and uneasiness to her actions.

For them, there is only one way to reverse the situation at this moment.

So, she headed straight for her destination, to a secret room deep inside the cabin.

A special being from the Permanent Magnet-Landubona Academy is imprisoned there - a container man who possesses the Seal of the Faceless Man.

The boy was thin and looked to be only in his teens, but he carried enough power to completely change the course of the battle.

He was being held in a cage made of solid alloy.

The cage was covered with complex runes and chains, as if to prevent some uncontrollable power from leaking out.

Deep in the cage,
There was a faint sound of water.
That is a circulating water system set up to maintain a stable environment in the cage at the bottom of the cabin.

The sound of water was particularly clear in the silent cabin, interweaving with Inoue Hiha's hurried footsteps, forming a terrifying and depressing rhythm.

"It's your turn to make a difference."

Inoue Hiha stopped in front of the cage.
She stared through the cracks in the cage at the boy huddled in the corner.

The boy's eyes were empty and confused, as if he had lost all consciousness and emotions, and was just mechanically repeating some unconscious actions.

Inoue Hiha knew that this was because the container man's consciousness and the power of the [Seal of the Faceless Man] had not yet fully merged, causing him to fall into a state of deep confusion.

But for a [container], not having your own thoughts may be the best outcome
She took a deep breath. Everything was now far out of control. In order to correct it all, she could only start the container consciousness matching ceremony according to Takeda Sui's idea.

It was not just an abyssal ritual,
It is also a fateful gamble concerning the dispute over the Lawrence-Riehl School.

The cold-tempered female killer took out a small device from her pocket, which was the key to starting the ceremony.

She carefully installed it in a specific position in the cage.

Then press the start button.

With a slight mechanical sound,
The runes within the cage began to flicker, releasing a soft light that illuminated the entire room.

The boy's body began to tremble and his eyes gradually became clear.

But just as Inoue Hiha pushed open the cage door that was carefully built with modern technology, a cold breath hit him in the face.

He rushed towards me, mixed with the saltiness of the sea and the fear of the unknown.

At this moment, the chosen [Container] boy finally heard an extremely terrifying and distant voice:

"I found you.

As expected, it was just as the servants declared:
[Incomplete essence of gods], [remnants of the first era], [an attempt to steal the splices of gods].

Adequate and delicious. ”
