"…" Michael was speechless.
He frowned, subconsciously thinking about what the guy in front of him meant. Police … definitely not referring to the ordinary police. This guy looked more like the mastermind behind the scenes than he did. Could it be that he was talking about those ordinary police officers?
Oh, if this guy had been waiting for them to take the bait from the start and had been plotting all along, then as the one secretly plotting against them, this guy didn't just look like it. He was the mastermind behind the scenes.
Therefore, he should be referring to the group of 'police' from the Mystic Tower who were filled with an inexplicable sense of justice and maintained the order of the supernatural world.
He'd only heard about the general situation when he'd come, and didn't even bother to investigate. He knew that the traitor of the Dome Church, Vincent, had gathered the believers of the Dome Church next door, presumably to instigate a rebellion.
However, he hadn't paid attention to the involvement of the Mystic Tower.
Anyway, these people were like ants to him, and he didn't care about any problems. The only thing he cared about was this bookstore owner.
Who knew that he would fail on the spot …
Now that this body was crippled, the situation was a little uncertain.
Judging from the bookstore owner's words, it was likely that the Mystic Tower had set up an ambush here … Although Kikaku and his wizard army were strong, they were still not enough to deal with the Mystic Tower.
Most importantly, Lin Jie knew what he was thinking clearly, and had even made sufficient preparations. Remember the URL: m.9biquge.com.
"Heh."
Michael narrowed his eyes. Lin Jie was indeed stronger than him, but he still didn't believe that he was omniscient and omnipotent.
He'd rather attribute this to the bookstore owner's own wisdom, taking one step forward and calculating ten steps ahead. This was indeed a game that people of their level should play.
"It seems that you may be more worthy of the evaluation of 'wisdom' than Felix. The world's view of you isn't comprehensive."
Michael had tacitly agreed that this bookstore owner named Lin Jie was the legendary Dragon of Disaster, Bakak, who had disappeared in the legends of the First Era and was famous for his' destruction '.
Although he was a light elemental scholar and had lived from the First Era to the present, there was still a difference in seniority between him and the ancient dragons.
When Michael began to rise, most of the ancient dragons had already disappeared. Only the Spring Dragon, Phillips, was dying of old age. He'd once visited this old dragon, but not long after, he'd heard the news of his death.
Since Phillips was a truly powerful elder, his attitude naturally changed, and he was willing to give him the respect he deserved.
“？”
A question mark appeared in Lin Jie's mind. What was with this tone that was full of "Qi Tiandi, you're not bad"? What was with this compliment after being seen through?
He had never heard of Felix's name before, but from his tone, he could tell that this guy had been targeting him from the very beginning.
Not only did she know him, but she seemed to have learned about him from other people, and many people at that.
But now that he had met him in person, he realized that he didn't match the rumors. He was actually a very intelligent person … Lin Jie suspected that this guy was actually indirectly scolding him for not being smart, but he didn't have any evidence.
Or could it be that this fellow had failed in his attempt to play the fool, so he changed his mind and planned to numb him first, then wait for reinforcements, or find an opportunity to escape?
Lin Jie wouldn't fall for this trick, but since the other party had the desire to talk, he naturally had to fish for information.
He was best at tricking people, so he definitely couldn't lose in terms of momentum.
Boss Lin thought so, and then said indifferently, "Of course, what others see isn't the real me. They feel it subjectively, and what they get is already second-hand information that has been processed. If you get information from other people's mouths, wouldn't that be second-hand information?"
"You rushed to my door to kill me without fully understanding me." He looked down at the young man condescendingly. "From this point of view, it can be seen that at least you're not very 'intelligent.'"
Although I don't know if this guy is actually scolding me, I'm definitely not wrong to scold him first.
This young man looked proud and arrogant, so he definitely wouldn't be able to withstand provocation, and it was easier for people to speak without thinking when they were angry.
Of course, the most important thing was that the other party had originally thought that he was just an ordinary bookstore owner, but he didn't expect that he was actually a master of tricks, so he was mentally shocked and doubtful. If he said this, he would definitely mistakenly think that he had some big secret.
"You!" Michael had lived for hundreds of millions of years, and had always been above all living things. This was the first time someone had said that he was "not very intelligent."
And it just so happened that "intelligence" was the domain that he was most proud of. Lin Jie had accurately stepped on his minefield, making him fly into a rage out of humiliation for an instant. He felt a surge of anger rush to the top of his head, and he almost wanted to self-destruct this body to show Lin Jie what he was capable of.
But when he looked up with widened eyes, he saw that the pitch-black dragon scales on Lin Jie's cheeks were "fading" and hiding under his skin, returning to the appearance of a human.
The light elemental scholar's heart trembled, and he realized that this sentence might have some other deeper meaning.
What others saw wasn't the real him.
This sentence could mean that he wasn't the bookstore owner named Lin Jie, but rather the Dragon of Disaster, Bakak, who had lived from ancient times to the present.
But at the same time, connecting it to what Michael had just said about Felix and the world's evaluation, and seeing this guy transform from a half-dragon to a human's appearance, could it be that Lin Jie actually meant that "the Dragon of Destruction, Bakak, wasn't the real him"?!
Michael's pupils constricted, and he actually felt a sense of shock that he hadn't felt in a long time, "Who exactly are you?!"
If even the Dragon of Destruction, Bakak, wasn't his true identity, then who could he be? In that era where he hadn't even been born, what kind of past was hidden …
Michael's heart suddenly stirred. "The unknown," wasn't this the kind of interest he was pursuing?
It seemed that he had succeeded in fooling him, Lin Jie judged.
Judging from the change in his expression, this young man seemed to have imagined something incredible.
Although he didn't know what he had imagined, it wasn't important. What was important was to obtain useful information from him.
Lin Jie said with a smile, "Before asking others, you have to let me see your sincerity first, right?"
Since the other party was fearless, he definitely had something he could rely on. It was very likely that he was a huge criminal gang like the Blood Feast.
This time, the other party dared to directly send someone to kill him. Who knew what they would do next time?
This wasn't the only enemy. Even if he killed the other party today, it would be useless, because even if he killed this one, there would be tens of thousands of others.
Only by getting to the bottom of it and eliminating the source of trouble could he truly nip the problem in the bud.
In any case, Ke Laode had always been involved in this matter. It was said that Yue Sefu would also be coming over tonight, so the security of the book cafe next door was still guaranteed.
Lin Jie would first fool this young man to show some "sincerity". As for what kind of sincerity it was, he would keep it in the dark for the time being … It would depend on how much the other party comprehended.
Michael kept his cool. The so-called sincerity was very simple in his eyes.
Since he wanted to know the other party's identity, he naturally couldn't use an ordinary clone to ask. This would be too disrespectful to someone of the same level. It was only natural for the other party to make such a request.
However, it was impossible for his light elemental body to directly descend in Nuo Jin.
"Alfred Harvey Grantham …"
Michael gave a long list of names, saying, "This is half of my true name. Of course, this is already in the past. Now, my name is Michael."
A true name possessed great power. Even half of it was enough to command light elementals below the destruction grade.
"Is this enough to show my sincerity?"
