"For a long time, people have been pursuing higher levels of evolution … This is also the reason why cultivators have been pursuing higher levels of cultivation. Countless Cultivators pursue higher realms for strength, for longevity, and even more so for the pursuit of a higher form of life … "
Inside the Battle Sect, Coon was holding a cup of hot coffee as he explained the situation that he knew.
It seemed that he was going to talk about the origin of human beings and cultivation.
But time was of the essence now, so Odd Zhuo could only guide Keown from the side and let him choose the key points to answer.
In order to win Keown's trust, Odd Zhuo had even unlocked Keown's Spirit Shackles. But Keown knew very well that with that long-haired Almighty here, it didn't make any difference whether he wore the shackles or not.
"You didn't want to say anything before, why are you willing to say it now?" Odd Zhuo was puzzled by Cowen's sudden change.
Keown looked at Odd Zhuo. "The reason I joined the SBP Foundation was to help the human world develop more peacefully and orderly. The investigations I've conducted over the past few years have been based on this goal as well. I will only choose what I think is right. In fact, I was still hesitating when I was sent to the prison van, but after a few rounds of fighting, I immediately understood. "
"What do you understand?"
"I understand. It's the right direction." Keown's voice gradually became deeper. "The Foundation has changed. It's no longer the Foundation I used to know. We exist to expose the truth. Now, in order to hide the truth, the foundation is willing to pay the price of killing an investigator … "
"You mean that the burly men from the foundation weren't here to kidnap you?"
"Despite their disguises, I know them too. They are the foundation's scavengers. " "The duty of the scavengers is to assist in the investigation. They will cooperate with the investigators to carry out specific tasks. “
"For example, sometimes we need to kidnap a specific insider in order to investigate something. At the same time, in order to protect the identity of the insider, we will fake their suicide so that we can take the real person away for investigation. In this way, in the eyes of the outside world, this person was already dead. But in fact, once we have enough evidence, this dead person will come back as a key witness … "
"So, the Scavenger's mission was to help you fake a suicide?"
"You can think of it that way."
Keown nodded. Holding his coffee cup, he laughed bitterly. "But I don't know when the scavengers started to change. The foundation, which originally exposed the truth, became the lackeys of some tycoons. They sent investigators to gather all the evidence and witnesses, and then sent the scavengers to destroy them all … "
"Truly flawless."
Odd Zhuo tsked and sighed. "When did they become like this, and when they became like this?"
"A long time ago … In my memory, it seemed to have started 20 years ago … They had already started to rot 20 years ago … It's just that I didn't have any concrete evidence."
Keown frowned as if he was trying hard to recall the details of the past few decades. "From the moment my first friend who was also an investigator died, I already had my suspicions. "…" … "Time," … "Scavenger": "…" Time, "…"
Speaking up to this point, Keown lowered his head and cast a simple Impression Spell to project the appearance of a blue-eyed foreigner on paper. "This man is called Snake, the leader of the Scavengers. Maybe even he doesn't know, but I've been paying attention to him ever since my first investigator companion died. The moment he jumped out just now, I could clearly sense that he wanted to kill me. "
"He's very strong? Your realm isn't too bad without the Spirit Shackles, right? "Odd Zhuo said.
"We're all elites selected and cultivated by the foundation. Our realms aren't much different, but the focus of our cultivation is different."
"Scavengers are killing machines cultivated by the foundation … As for us investigators, most of our focus is on cultivating perception-type and support-type spells."
At this point, Odd Zhuo already had a general idea of what had happened. Back in Songhai First Prison, Keown had refused to give in no matter what because he still had a glimmer of hope in the existence of the SBP Foundation.
He firmly believed that the faith he had once firmly believed in wouldn't collapse so easily …
But after killing four people halfway through, Keown instantly understood that the incomparably lofty foundation in his heart had already been completely destroyed.
"I chose your Battle Sect because you don't have any interest in the foundation. Do you remember the other two people who intercepted us … "
"You mean Huaguo Water Curtain Group and the Central Alliance?"
"If my inference is correct, they've probably already been infiltrated by the foundation. Compare them. Only Battle Sect is at a lower risk, "Keown said.
Hearing this, Odd Zhuo felt that the situation, which had already become clear, seemed to have become a little complicated again.
"The SBP Foundation has been established for so many years and enjoys a good reputation internationally. I can understand why the Central Alliance might be working with it, but what's going on with Huaguo Water Curtain Group? "Odd Zhuo asked.
"I'm not particularly clear on this matter. I only heard a colleague mention files related to Huaguo Water Curtain Group. It seems to have something to do with that female candidate for Huaguo Water Curtain Group … "
"Lotus Sun?"
"Yes … that should be the name … but I don't know the specifics of the investigation." The expression on Keown's face was particularly complicated. "Because the rumor is that this investigator also died at the hands of the Scavengers …"
"Boom!"
At that moment, as they were talking, a huge explosion suddenly erupted outside Battle Sect's mountain gate. Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal's True Venerate Hall also shook slightly with this huge tremor.
"Report ~ ~ ~ A group of foreigners are preparing to attack the mountain!"
A Battle Sect disciple ran in in a panic.
"It's the Scavengers! Snake and the others are here! "
Keown became nervous. "They clearly know that you have an expert keeping watch here, and won't act rashly unless they're fully prepared … Snake is very strong! He's definitely going to kill me! "
"Don't panic." Odd Zhuo tried to calm Keown down.
He exchanged glances with Immortal Zhenyuan, who was about to go out and take a look at the situation.
In the end, another Battle Sect disciple ran in in a panic at that moment.
"Report ~ ~ ~ The leader of the foreigners is dead!"
"Dead???" Odd Zhuo was stupefied.
"Crispy Noodles Dao Monarch said it was a needle that came from afar like a shooting star and directly stabbed him to death … then flew off into the distance …"
"…" Hearing this, Odd Zhuo sucked in a cold breath.
Were the villains nowadays so shameless?
They didn't even have a chance to make an appearance and had died just like that?
