After hearing You Xin's report, Mo Qiong almost couldn't help but throw a missile at the Golden Apple from afar.
Today, Aether carried many anomalies and wreaked havoc in the city without restraint.
Thousands of people had died directly or indirectly at his hands.
This was what a former containment organization looked like now.
Protection came from the sense of ownership, treating this world as their home, so they protected it with their lives.
The Little Brotherhood used to have this kind of consciousness, protecting mortals from being harmed by anomalies.
But as their power declined, they no longer treated society as their home, but as the Blue and White Society's home.
If the world treats me like this, then why should I be so pedantic and follow the ancient order? Am I being cheap?
It was like a child that you loved suddenly felt like she was someone else's child.
When your belief wasn't firm enough, your desire to protect also faded.
Aether had completely abandoned its dignity as a containment organization and used anomalies to kill without restraint.
It didn't even care about the fact that it was suspected to be an outsider and directly attacked ordinary people on a large scale.
"Stabilize the situation, leave Aether to me, quickly seal the memories of everyone who knows about that sentence and the Golden Apple's appearance!" Mo Qiong knew that even if the Golden Apple's memories were sealed, its divinity would still be activated, but he still said that.
"Of course, Hua Yin and I are already doing that" You Xin said.
Mo Qiong hung up, and before he knew it, he had already reached the outskirts of New York.
"His location … isn't this the containment base?"
Mo Qiong was surprised to find that the Golden Apple's location was inside the Universal Clockwork Spring's containment base.
That's right, the bait plan from before didn't only expose an anomaly, but also this underground base.
Mo Qiong, Lord Gou, and Luo Yan's minds were connected, and they entered the base from different angles.
Mo Qiong updated the location of the locator in real time and narrowed the encirclement.
Everything was normal inside the base, the security guards were doing their jobs, Mo Qiong didn't expect Aether to be hiding here.
They didn't disturb too many people, they directly used their Gamma authority to obtain a special password that was updated every second from the HQ, then opened one door after another to search for the target.
Soon, the locator led Mo Qiong to the lounge, where only one security guard was resting.
Mo Qiong held the locator in his hand. He was glad that he did not recklessly launch a weapon of mass destruction to destroy the ether.
If he did that, the base would lose its containment function again.
Because the lounge was located at the center of the containment area, this was to ensure that the security guards would be able to reach the anomaly's location as quickly as possible if necessary.
At this moment, there was only one security guard in the lounge, and the final flight trajectory of the locator was towards him.
There was no doubt that the Golden Apple was with him, and this security guard should be the ether.
"They snuck in while the base was being rebuilt …" Mo Qiong immediately told Lord Gou and Luo Yan about the situation.
At the same time, he pretended as if nothing had happened and walked into the lounge.
He had no choice. He had already come this far. If he turned around and left, it would only increase suspicion.
"Hi!"
Mo Qiong greeted him naturally and sat down at a spot that was neither too far nor too close to the aether.
But Aether didn't pay any attention to him. It sat on the sofa and dozed off.
Mo Qiong almost attacked.
Fell asleep? He lured others to spread the self-combustion effect on the TV station, causing the death of more than 3,000 people.
But in the end, he fell asleep in the Blue and White Society's base?
At this moment, Luo Yan also walked in and sat on the other side. He and Mo Qiong subtly sandwiched the place where Aether sat.
But Aether still didn't move. It was still dozing off.
But if one looked closely, they would find that his forehead was covered in sweat. His expression was very tired and nervous.
"No, he's enduring the side effects of the Golden Apple!" Luo Yan shouted in the spiritual power channel.
Mo Qiong was shocked. Enduring the side effects of the Golden Apple? In other words, he was maintaining someone else's divinity!
Who? Who?
To be able to make Aether hide in the lounge, adjust itself in a meditative state, and resist the backlash, it was definitely not an ordinary person.
No, no, no, it could also be an ordinary person, as long as there was enough of them.
In other words, Aether was bearing the backlash of many people's divinity being activated.
"Attack!"
Mo Qiong and Luo Yan looked at each other and immediately attacked together.
"Bang!"
Just like how they dealt with Crowe, first they used Air Imprisonment, then a series of rapid attacks.
Just in case, Mo Qiong didn't even bother to use Slow Exile. He directly fired three shots at Aether's head.
At such a close distance, even if he escaped to the ends of the earth, he still wouldn't be able to dodge these three bullets!
"Puff, puff, puff!"
Aether's brain matter burst out, and it fell to the ground with a plop.
Mo Qiong's gun was very powerful. It directly blew Aether's head open. Blood splattered and covered the wall.
Luo Yan immediately checked the corpse. After confirming that there were no signs of life, he smiled.
"It's settled just like that …" Mo Qiong put down his gun.
Luo Yan smiled and immediately found the Golden Apple from the corpse's clothes.
"Ha, he had no idea that we would find this place at this time. He was meditating to resist the backlash. He probably thought that we were all dealing with self-combustion and had no time to take care of him. "
Obviously, no matter how cautious Aether was, it wouldn't have thought that Mo Qiong could directly locate the Golden Apple.
Luo Yan stared at the Golden Apple. A mysterious and indescribable feeling swept through his heart.
With a thought, he realized that there were twenty-five people in a state of divinity.
There was no doubt that this was the real Golden Apple.
"That's not right. The Aether people are all dead. Why haven't their divinity been removed?" Luo Yan asked in surprise.
"What? Try again! "Mo Qiong said.
Luo Yan held the Golden Apple. Other than adding more divinities, he couldn't remove the twenty-five divinities caused by the Aether.
This thing didn't have any instructions. The wielder had to figure it out step by step.
Mo Qiong saw that Luo Yan was fiddling with it and couldn't do it in a short time, so he immediately contacted You Xin.
"You Xin, what kind of divinity are the people there carrying out? I can confirm that there are twenty-five people in divinity and can't be removed immediately, "Mo Qiong said.
However, You Xin said, "Huh? No. Although many people saw the picture of the Golden Apple through the TV broadcast, no one triggered the divinity. "
"No?"
Mo Qiong was stunned. When he found out that the Aether was suffering from the backlash, he thought that the civilians affected by the TV broadcast had been triggered by the Aether.
Now it seemed that it wasn't …
Mo Qiong's thoughts turned quickly and he quickly reacted. "Oh no! It's the people in the base! "
He connected the dots and instantly realized what the Aether was doing.
It was controlling the security of the containment base!
There were only so many people who could be activated. If it wasn't them, if it wasn't the TV broadcast audience, who else could it be? Of course, it was the Blue and White Society security guards in the base where the Aether was.
Otherwise, why would the Aether sneak in?
Of course it was for the anomalies. The most likely reason he brought the Golden Apple in was that he had already used the Golden Apple to control the security guards guarding the Universal Clockwork Spring.
For example, he gave them the divinity of releasing anomalies.
Although Luo Yan had held on, these ordinary security guards obviously couldn't compare to Luo Yan's iron will.
Although twenty-five people were a lot, their willpower was far inferior to the Aether. It was completely possible for him to resist the backlash of twenty-five people at the same time without going crazy.
Especially at this time!
"In order to solve the self-ignition meme and seal the people's memories of 'that sentence,' all the master hypnotists were transferred away," Mo Qiong said.
Mo Qiong quickly connected the aether's intentions.
Because of the bait plan, the Aether knew the location of the base. Therefore, after a confrontation with the members, it found that the members were extremely strong. They had the ability to make people unable to escape, the ability to not collapse, and so on.
Therefore, it suddenly acted out of character and took the initiative to create an incident, spreading the dangerous self-ignition meme on the TV station, and even photos of the Golden Apple.
This was to involve the Blue and White Society's forces, forcing them to focus on the TV station.
It was not only to attract Mo Qiong and the other members, but also to mobilize the stronger wills, the master level of hypnotism peripheral personnel. Not to mention New York, most of North America had deployed peripheral personnel proficient in hypnotism because of this incident.
The base in New York that contained the clockwork was just one of them.
In order to quell the self-ignition meme, the Blue and White Society had to do this. They had to protect the people. This was an open conspiracy, and the Aether had calculated this point.
And the Aether took advantage of this to enter.
At this moment, although he was killed instantly because he didn't expect Mo Qiong's ability, the divinity he created before his death was not removed because of his death.
In other words, at this moment, the twenty-five security guards who had their divinity activated would have no feelings at all. They would carry out the divinity given to them by the Aether before his death.
And that unwavering goal must be related to the anomalies.
Mo Qiong instantly figured everything out and immediately ordered.
"Sound the alarm! All security personnel gather, strictly prohibit contact with anomalies! "
Gou Ye quickly rushed to the containment room where the clockwork was, but quickly told Mo Qiong, "It's too late, the clockwork is gone …"
There was no doubt that the security personnel in charge of the anomalies had stolen it.
But then? If it was just the clockwork, it would be fine, but if …
"Immediately notify the containment base of 'Beta-147', I suspect 'Expired Cola' is also in danger!" Mo Qiong said.
