Deity Investigation Report

Chapter 243 I am the heir to the bronze
"That damn siscon, isn't he even afraid of death?"

At the D7 experimental base, the displeased voice of a tall, thin woman could be heard through the mental positioning device.

The bullet that Song Chu fired just now caused a slight malfunction in the positioning mechanism and interrupted her capture of Han Su.

For a fleeting moment, Han Su had the opportunity to escape the room.

But he didn't. Instead, his gaze remained fixed on the woman's projection, as if revealing some impulsive anger: "You gave birth to me just to put me in a cage?"

"You raised me until I was ten years old just to send me to the castle. Is it because I have some special purpose?"

"..."

"Why are you asking these questions at a time like this?"

The tall, thin woman looked coldly at Han Su: "Your only special trait is your bad luck!"

"It was true when I was a child, and it's still true now that I'm grown up..."

"Do you know that if you weren't so stubborn and overestimated your abilities, you could have really enjoyed these past ten years? I taught you when you were little that when facing something you can't beat, you should hide, but why did you have to..."

"...Should we take the initiative to approach?"

"..."

As the last word fell, she leaned forward slightly, and her features became clearer.

The cold light emanating from those pupils almost pierced through Han Su.

The lag in locating the machine had already affected the interweaving of her mental energy fields, causing her figure to become somewhat blurred and detached from reality. However, by actively strengthening the connection of her mental energy, she had turned the tables and seized control of the mechanical device.

The next moment, chains formed from spiritual power appeared around her, quickly wrapping around Han Su's body.

At the end of these chains, there is still that same iron cage.

In less than a second and a half, she erased the effects of Song Chushi's shot and continued to grab Han Su.

Faced with her, Han Su still had only one outcome: to surrender.

"Perhaps..."

Faced with the overwhelming iron chains, Han Su's feelings became extremely complicated.

Perhaps, before she turned ten, she really did teach herself to escape and to hide?
If it weren't for the presence of the blinking figure that repeatedly dragged him back, he might have really gone into hiding when faced with everything related to this kidnapping case.
But who told you to encounter something even more terrifying?
In the instant that countless thoughts flashed through his mind, Han Su's voice rang out: "Because I want to see why I'm so unlucky?"

As he spoke, he clenched his left fist, revealing a cross-shaped mark on the back of his hand, and his voice suddenly turned cold: "Now I know."

"It's just bad luck that I was born from you!"

"..."

Previously, I had reminded the friends who came out of the castle that some of their parents might know the truth about the kidnapping case, and therefore sent them in at the beginning of their lives.

I was even very careful when I said those words.

Because this is such a cruel thing, no matter who finds out that they belong to this category, their life cannot be considered lucky.

But who could have imagined...

The first to have this fate sealed was the White Corpse, and the second was himself!

As he spoke with the tall, thin woman, copper-colored blood seeped from the black briefcase in his hand.

At this moment, his mental activity had been suppressed, making him like an ordinary person. However, the will of copper remained. By using the fisherman's chant to drive the will of copper, he also gained the power to control these copper-colored bloods. They flowed out of the bottle and onto the ground.

As he clenched his left hand, the bronze-colored blood rapidly dispersed, forming a strange and complex cipher array.

Han Su stood precisely in the center of this cryptic array.

This was Han Su's trump card.

It was also the first thing Han Su thought of after Li Moses brought him to this isolated place that gave him the confidence to cooperate with a ruthless person like Li Moses.

A tall, thin woman can suppress her mental activity, but the power of copper does not belong to her.

Half of the will comes from copper, which can be forcibly controlled by the fishermen's chant.

The other half comes from the blood of the White Corpse, which can be controlled by the will of the Bronze.

The blood left behind by the white corpse contains a powerful and mysterious force, and is itself a weapon. Although this weapon may not be much to the tall and thin woman, it can unleash amazing power when controlled by the will of bronze.

Simply put, it is the power of the successor of bronze.

The power unleashed in that instant was briefly enough to surpass that of the White Corpse himself.

Of course, Han Su's weakness is that he doesn't have enough knowledge about copper, which will lead to loopholes in his handling of it, but it's enough to get him out of trouble.

"Really you?"

As the bronze blood traced a complex array of ciphers beneath Han Su's feet, the chains that had been binding him were all repelled by the bronze blood light, breaking into pieces.

Some of it even bounced off the tall, thin woman, making a clattering sound before slowly disappearing into nothingness. Surprisingly, the tall, thin woman showed no anger at this unexpected scene.

There was only a moment of sorrow, or even fear.

"It really is you..."

"The reason why the Seven-Day Divine Descent failed is truly because of you..."

"..."

The voice trembled slightly, and from a cabinet under the desk behind her, a faint crystal light emanated, resonating with her from afar. This caused her figure to sway, appearing somewhat blurry and mysterious, as if her appearance had changed.

"What did I do...?"

She leaned forward slowly, as if trying to get a clear look at Han Su.

This action brought her even closer to Han Su, almost as if they were truly in reality. Han Su's heart clenched, and his left hand reached for his lower back, gripping the gun handle tightly.

"I should have realized this long ago, but I was always misled by other things, always hesitated at crucial moments, softened my heart, and let you go. I... I should have captured you and dissected you long ago when I discovered the disappearance of the Will of Bronze..."

"If I hadn't softened back then, I would have understood what was going on with you..."

"..."

With her sigh, Han Su could see her clearly and completely, and even feel her aura up close.

This is no longer a matter of location, but rather a temporary connection between two spaces achieved through the grafting of spiritual power.

This was the moment Han Su had been waiting for.

Seeing the tall, thin woman's sigh of regret, his eyes suddenly turned cold. He drew his gun and shouted, "What's the use of saying you were soft-hearted towards me before? Do you expect me to be grateful?"

The instant he raised his gun and pointed it at the tall, thin woman, countless drops of bronze-colored blood instantly floated up from the bronze-colored rune array beneath his feet, covering the gun in his hand and modifying it in a very short time.

"Bah!"

The next moment, Han Su pulled the trigger on her.

His attack was ruthless and decisive.

The gun, modified with copper-colored blood, fired a precise bullet, aiming straight for the tall, thin woman's face, which was filled with frustration.

At this moment, Bai Senmang, sitting on the chair next to him, stared wide-eyed at the scene of Han Su firing his gun.

If he were still conscious, he would realize that Han Su had not lied to him.

Regardless of whether she was his mother or any other relationship, Han Su regarded this woman as an enemy.

So, upon seeing this woman, the first thing he did when he had the chance was to fire that shot.

Of course, I still have many doubts and questions, such as what is the so-called Seven-Day Divine Descent?

What was her ultimate goal in doing all this?
According to her, if it was because she discovered the will of copper within herself, then why did their plan still fail and drag on until now, even though she hadn't obtained the will of copper in her previous life path?

Of course, these questions can be asked when there is an opportunity, but if there isn't, then there's no point in worrying about them.

Despite his many doubts, his chances of killing her were too slim. Now that he had the opportunity, he should fire the shot first.

She's the enemy!

……

"Oh!"

A single shot imbued with the will of bronze has, to some extent, far exceeded the limits of reality.

This bullet, once fired, seemed to possess a mysterious quality.

In an instant, it pierced through the space where Han Su was located and into the space where this tall and thin woman was located. Its power seemed undiminished, piercing through the intertwining of spiritual power and flying to her.

The tall, thin woman, who seemed completely unprepared, didn't even look at him directly. She simply turned her head slightly, and the bullet grazed her cheek before striking the wall behind her with a loud bang, its force corroding a large hole.

The tall, slender woman turned her head, gently raised her hand, and wiped her cheek. There was a bloody gash from the gust of wind from the bullet, not deep, but already starting to seep blood.

Her gaze fell on Han Su's face, and there seemed to be something strange hidden in it: "You actually shot at me directly..."

"Wasn't there even the slightest hesitation or reluctance?"

"..."

"A shot of that magnitude couldn't even make her panic?"

Han Su had no time to pay attention to her words; he felt only a gritted-teeth resentment. The gap between them on a certain level gave him a strong sense of powerlessness.

The first objective, to kill her directly, failed.

That means at least achieving the second goal: bringing her into reality, instead of her disappearing at any time by cutting off the connection, as she is now.

But he had no time to waste. The Will of Bronze had failed to kill the woman, but it had shattered the endless chains, causing his suppression to disappear and his mental activity to finally begin to recover.

Without hesitation, he poured all the money into the pocket watch in his inner shirt pocket.

This is one of the items brought out from the ancient castle, containing the power of the number 10 [Beast Identifier].

This power is a strange life form born from knowledge, related to knowledge and thought. Han Su stole the power contained within them using the Emperor's Book, but he did not steal it completely, leaving a part behind to maintain their mystery.

After all, it still needs to be returned to Lu Neng. If only two ordinary items are returned, someone with Lu Neng's personality probably won't be satisfied.

Because of its mysterious nature, this pocket watch has its own unique features. Han Su already knows its function through the Emperor's Book; it's not magical, but it's useful.

[Thoughts steal the pocket watch!]

This pocket watch can steal time and influence one's own thoughts.

For example, three minutes, ten minutes, one hour.

Different durations require different levels of mental effort; the longer the duration, the greater the mental effort required.

After stealing it, Han Su would be highly mentally active and have time to think while the pocket watch was running.

It was as if three minutes had been stolen. In reality, things remained unchanged, it was just a fleeting moment, but Han Su's mind could operate at high speed for three minutes, pondering the current problem or other matters.

Now Han Su has stolen the limit of what he can steal. As the hands of the pocket watch rapidly decrease from three minutes onwards, his mind becomes active. His body seems to be stuck in glue, but countless pieces of information flow and piece together rapidly in his mind.

He saw everything around him, analyzed the current situation, and considered countless ideas. In the end, he chose the most outrageous plan.

Meeting the somewhat surprised, even saddened gaze of the tall, thin woman, Han Su suddenly raised the gun in his hand again.

He aimed it at his temple and then pulled the trigger hard.

Are you scared?
I dare not only shoot you, I dare to shoot myself!
