At eight o 'clock in the morning, the millions of citizens living in the underground district of the capital city started a new day of life and work. The dozens of overlapping floors of the underground district were even more chaotic than before.
Because of the torrential storm on the ground, the underground drainage system had been activated to the maximum, too. Countless rainwater pipes and sewage pipes were all emitting deafening noises, and the water was running fast!
The difficulty of tracking was significantly higher than before. The Secret Sword Agents, who had not slept for days, were about to go crazy!
Li Yao reached out to Professor Mo Xuan through a cable again.
Professor Mo Xuan had brought him the information that he wanted most.
Li Yao had always been bothered by the mysterious sniper.
To this moment, even after injecting tremendous cell repair drugs, his heart was still aching vaguely, and there were signs that it would stop beating now and then.
That lightning-fast kill was really too terrifying!
Not that Li Yao was bragging, but in the entire Federation, there were no more than three snipers who could pose such a threat to him.
The sniper certainly had no intention of capturing him alive but was determined to kill him. If the Patriots Partnership did exist, the sniper was very likely to be one of the members and the biggest breakthrough.
Therefore, he asked Professor Mo Xuan to investigate the sniper's identity.
The identity of this sniper wasn't too big of a secret. After all, although the power and might of that godly shot had been restrained to the limit and ordinary people couldn't sense it, high-level cultivators would definitely be able to smell a faint spiritual aura. This absolutely couldn't be hidden.
Lu Zui, director of the Secret Sword Bureau, admitted the fact that there was another hunting squad, for the purpose of preventing the infiltration of the Children of the Nether World. The leader of the squad was the prestigious chief tutor of firearms in the army. Naturally, the Cultivators who did not know the inside story would not be suspicious at all.
It's' Death Ray 'Ye Changkong?
Li Yao secretly clicked his tongue.
As the chief tutor of firearms in the Union Army, 'Death Ray' Ye Changkong was a legend who had been famous for more than a hundred years. He was a well-deserved hero of the Federation. Li Yao did not know that he was a member of the Patriots Partnership, too!
Li Yao quickly assessed each other's combat strength.
"Death Ray" Ye Changkong was in the middle stage of Yuanying. He was good at telekinesis. Spiritual lock, Concealment. He also had the support of a powerful gun-type true treasure. At a distance of more than 1,000 meters, he would definitely have an advantage.
On the other hand, Li Yao was an ultimate Jin Dan. He was good at setting traps and close combat. If he could shorten the distance to less than 100 meters, then he would be at his mercy.
However, what Li Yao wanted was not as simple as killing Death Ray.
He pondered for a moment. Li Yao sent a message to Professor Mo Xuan. "Do you know what kind of gun 'Death Ray' Ye Changkong uses?"
Professor Mo Xuan was an experienced magical equipment specialist. He knew the common magical equipment of the Yuanying experts of the Federation like the back of his hand. "His favorite gun is the 'Tissot IX', a heavy anti-armor sniper rifle, which was designed to deal with the experts of the demon race who boasted super thick armor and the enormous demon beasts. Under the control of an expert in the Core Formation Stage or above, a demon beast more than a hundred meters tall more than a hundred meters tall can be holed out or even blown up in the head with a single shot!
"Ye Changkong's' Tissot IX 'was modified by' Li Chenxin ', a master of firearms. At the cost of tremendous Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, the gun was modified beyond recognition. It combined the dual functions of an anti-armor sniper rifle and an anti-armor sniper rifle. Together with the marrow crystal bullets that were carefully refined, it became a unique ultimate treasure in the firearms category. Even Master Li Chenxin was very satisfied with the masterpiece and named it 'Herald' in person! "
Li Chenxin was the most famous master of firearms in the Federation. As it turned out, the heavy sniper rifle had been modified by him in person. No wonder it could be so powerful.
Li Yao thought for a moment and asked, "Is there any way to hack into Master Li Chenxin's crystal processor and get all the structural designs and modification diagrams of the 'Herald'?"
Professor Mo Xuan was silent for a moment. He said, "It is not difficult to sneak into Master Li's crystal processor. After all, firearms are just a minor art. Even the modification diagrams of the 'Herald' are not top secret. However, I am under the full surveillance of the Secret Sword Bureau. If I want to hack into someone's crystal processor without alarming anyone, it will take me more than half a day. Also, there will be too much information after I get the modification diagrams. It will be impossible to transmit them through text, too. "
"It doesn't matter."
Li Yao said, "After all, Ding Ling Dong is still 'hunting' me. After Professor Mo gets the design diagrams, you can store them in a super-tiny chip and ask Ding Ling Dong to put them in a designated location, such as on the inner wall of a garbage bin in a certain block. I will go and get them myself."
"No problem," Professor Mo said. "I will try to deceive the surveillance, hack into Li Chenxin's crystal processor, and get the structural designs and modification diagrams of the 'Herald' sniper rifle in six hours. However, what do you want them for?"
Li Yao smiled. "I have an idea that I can try. However, I will need your cooperation, especially Ding Ling Dong."
"I'm listening," Ding Ling Dong said.
Li Yao hesitated for a moment. Taking a deep breath, he typed a line of words softly. "You already know everything. Are you still unable to let go of your hatred for the demon race?"
There was a long silence on the other side. The light beam was blank the whole time.
Li Yao stared at it, with hot sweat popping up on his forehead.
Half a minute later, a line of words finally popped up on the light beam.
"You know that my parents were killed by the demon race right in front of my eyes. The scene is like a cluster of thorns that has been haunting my heart all the time. Right now, I have become 'Expert Jin Dan'. But many nights, I still wake up from nightmares, as if I were the desperate little girl in the city besieged by the beast tide again.
"The path that you and Jin Tuyi have described looks straight, beautiful, and correct. Maybe there is a bright future ahead of you if you walk on the path.
"However, the cluster of thorns is still haunting my heart, my limbs, and my entire body. I can't get rid of it. I can't get rid of it at all!
"Can you teach me how to let go of my hatred?"
Li Yao was silent. He did not know what to say.
At this moment, whatever he said would be hypocritical, stupid, or even evil.
He did not have the deep pain that Ding Ling Dong had. How could he be so shameless as to say such irresponsible nonsense?
Scratching his hair hard, Li Yao was at his wit's end.
The light beam was blank for another half a minute, before words popped up one after another. Ding Ling Dong was typing very fast. Li Yao could even picture her biting her lips hard.
"However, no matter how deep your hatred for the demon race is, and no matter how unwilling you are to cooperate with the demon race, it is definitely not a reason to kill thousands of compatriots, thousands of ordinary people, and thousands of innocent fathers, mothers, husbands, wives, sons, and daughters!
"I saw my parents die in front of me with my own eyes. I know what it feels like.
"In the square of the Federation yesterday, how many children of my age tasted the same feeling? A few decades later, will they be like me today, often waking up from nightmares and crying their eyes out? "
"It is our duty to slay demons and devils, but the purpose of slaying demons and devils is to protect ordinary people so that nobody will have to bear such pain!
"If we have to sacrifice thousands of innocent people in order to slay demons and devils, isn't that putting the cart before the horse? What kind of demons are we slaying? What kind of devils are we slaying?
"Last night, I thought for a long time while holding the pictures of my parents. I was not sure what kind of path I was going to walk on.
"However, there is one thing that I am certain of.
"The scumbags who have killed so many innocent people are still demons, the most shameless of demons, even if they are wearing the glamorous human skin, wearing the glorious clothes, and carrying the righteous banners!"
"I am a Cultivator. It is my responsibility to protect the ordinary people. It is our duty to slay demons and devils! Whether they are devils in the skin of demons or devils in the skin of human beings, I will certainly drag them out brutally, grab their necks, and beat the last bit of sh * t out of them! "
Li Yao stared at the light beam for a long time in a daze. His nose was occupied by some sour liquid. He rubbed his eyes hard and wrote quickly.
"Got it. Let's talk about our future later. We are bound to come up with a solution.
"Right now, let's drag out the devils in the skin of human beings and beat the sh * t out of them!
"Look at the back of the third cooling fin below the left rib of your Crystal Suit.
"Hehe. When you threw the Cosmos Ring into my mouth, I gave you a small 'present', too!"
…
Six hours later …
In the command center of the Demon Execution Division of the Secret Sword Bureau …
Ding Ling Dong was gnashing her teeth, her red hair flying wildly. She opened her palm and found a chip as thin as a cicada's wing.
She stabbed the chip right below Guo Chunfeng's nose.
"What's this?"
Guo Chunfeng slightly frowned. As a refiner with keen eyes, he could naturally tell that it was a chip for the wireless connection of the Spiritual Nexus on a crystal processor. A unique identification rune array and a series of special identification stripes had been embedded inside the chip, which was used to connect to the network.
In other words, the chip was the 'ID' of the crystal processor. After the chip was implanted and activated, the crystal processor would be able to connect to the ubiquitous Spiritual Nexus.
However, he did not understand why Ding Ling Dong had brought a network chip to him.
"I found it in the cooling fins of the Crystal Suit when I was maintaining the Crystal Suit. It is definitely not mine."
Ding Ling Dong said solemnly.
Although she was not a refiner, as an excellent Exo, she had to know the routine maintenance and simple maintenance of the Crystal Suit.
After the battles that were not too intense, the Exo would usually do the maintenance themselves if they were not wounded.
