Chapter 187 Linn: I Surrender (6k)
The moment there was a strange movement in the Endless Thread, Linn realized that someone was coming.
As early as when he first returned to the imperial capital, he sent His Highness's subordinates to conduct an investigation and specifically listed some places that "can be used as exile strongholds if necessary without being discovered".
The current abandoned old factory is one of them.
According to the feedback from Endless Silk, a total of eighteen people appeared within a radius of 500 meters.
Judging from the direction and position, they probably belong to three different forces. They have already discovered each other and are currently on guard against each other.
According to his guess, these people are probably official extraordinary beings, not the murderers behind the scenes that Linn has been waiting for.
He suddenly felt a little regretful and a little surprised.
I thought that the person who could find him first was the person who received the limb, Burl Human.
I never thought that it only took most of the day for the extraordinary beings belonging to the major forces to find this place, much faster than imagined.
It stands to reason that, given the efficiency of the empire's administrative system and the inaction style of those stupid pigs who were just eating nothing, there should not have been such efficiency.
It seems that after what happened, Saint Laurent VI's thunderous rage swept across the entire empire's top brass. In addition, he should have promised some rewards that made them crazy.
Speaking of which, my father-in-law’s acting skills are really excellent.
He obviously hates these old foxes in the Imperial Parliament, but on the surface he has to show his concern for Representative Black.
Obviously the entire empire should be the territory of his Alexini family.
But over the years, no tax revenue has been received from the border.
That is to say, he sent Duke Tiervus to collect taxes and got to know Lin En by mistake. This was how he found a way to break the situation.
Before this, not only did he not get a single penny of his money, he also had to commend the veterans of the parliament who had "dedicated themselves to it".
As an emperor, this is something that cannot be tolerated no matter what.
Therefore, Linn was very sure that the current Saint Laurent VI just looked angry.
In fact, my heart may have already blossomed with joy.
In addition, he was very convinced that although the parliament issued a pursuit order for him on the surface, the information received secretly was definitely to capture him alive.
Thinking of this, Lin En said loudly: "Now that you are here, don't hide, show up and see us."
Hearing this, he was tied to the seat and lost all thoughts. The fourth prince subconsciously raised his head and looked around in confusion.
The next second, eighteen shadow-like silent figures appeared in all directions in the old factory, trapping Lin En in the center and blocking all directions in which he could escape.
Judging from the fluctuations of auras and divine factors, these three hunting teams belonging to different forces do not seem to be elite.
Except for the extraordinary person at the head of each team who had a vague sense of oppression approaching the fourth level, the rest were either third level or second level.
But this is Lin En’s misunderstanding.
In fact, no matter which force it is, the fourth level is an absolutely important backbone combat force.
Even those imperial officials would find it difficult to hire a fourth-level transcendent as a bodyguard if they were not of too high a level.
After all, above the fourth level, there is a fifth level legend.
Such beings are often high-level military officials, or the core forces hidden behind the scenes by major families.
As for the sixth-order demigods, they are very rare in Glostin, and they cannot be driven by money and power at all.
Therefore, these three extraordinary teams from the military, Tianli Church and the Punishers are definitely elite.
Just because Lin En's strength has improved so rapidly along the way, he is only at level 2, and he can treat level 3 people like pigs and dogs and slaughter them wantonly.
However, it is a bit difficult to face the fourth level.
At least Lynn never tried.
In addition, different extraordinary beings may have different sealed objects to rely on, so he will not underestimate the enemy like a fool, thinking that the battle between extraordinary beings is purely about fighting for value.
After all, when he first crossed over, he used a strategy to defeat Morris.
Strength is so uncertain that no one can tell.
Therefore, feeling the chilling atmosphere coming from the surroundings, although Lin En's eyes were very calm, he did not feel any contempt in his heart.
On the other side, seeing that the official extraordinary person he longed for finally arrived in the old factory, the fourth prince Joshua rekindled some hope in his heart: "Hurry, come and save me! He is going to kill Get rid of this prince! ”
The captain of the Punisher Team is a tall and muscular young man.
After hearing Fourth Prince Joshua’s plea for help, a hint of respect suddenly appeared in his eyes: “Your Highness, please wait a moment, and my subordinates will capture the limb recipient on the spot to avenge you.”
Then he looked at the black-haired boy in the center of the crowd and mentioned In a loud voice: "Lynn Bartleon, although I am very curious about how you committed this series of murders when you were at the border more than a year ago, but no matter what, you assassinated the imperial councilors and kidnapped His Highness the Prince in public. The crimes are irrefutable facts.”
"Now my colleagues from the military and Tenri Church are gathered here with me. As a second-order person, you may have some strange methods, but in the end it is just a futile resistance."
"If it were me, at this moment I have chosen to surrender."
As he spoke, the captain of the Punisher team took out a palm-sized scale from his pocket, held it in his palm, and said calmly to Lin En.
I didn’t have any idea of showing off my tricks, and I took out my trump card as soon as I came up.
Not only the team of Punishers, but also members of the military and Tenri Church took out their respective sealed artifacts and looked at the black-haired boy warily.
In order to capture him, all forces paid a high price.
At least the captain of the Punisher team, who is about to be promoted to the fourth level, holds a scale in his hand that is an extremely powerful level 1 sealed object.
It is called "The Judge's Scale".
Personally speaking, it is at the same level as the undeveloped Endless Thread in Linn's hands.
Even a fourth-level transcendent would find it difficult to make any effective resistance when faced with the interference of a level 1 sealed object.
Because sealed objects of this level often involve rules and authority, if they are less than demigods, they can only be manipulated by others.
The fourth level is like this, let alone his second level?
But even so, the extraordinary beings from the three parties have no idea of underestimating the enemy at this moment.
Just because the person in front of me returned to the Imperial Capital in just one week, he did several major things that shocked the Imperial Capital.
Such a guy who escaped from those major events safely, even if he did not consider it from the perspective of combat power, would he just stay here quietly waiting to die?
Impossible.
So the persuasion to surrender was only verbal, and everyone was mentally prepared to fight at any time.
Even if you don’t look at this guy’s methods, the fact that the fourth prince is being held hostage at this moment is enough for them to go all out.
What's more, there are also the branches of the Holy Spirit promised by Saint Laurent VI.
This is something that makes everyone crazy.
The teams from the three major forces all received orders from above, telling them to be the first to capture Lin En alive and go to His Majesty the Emperor in exchange for rewards.
As the captain of the Punisher Team finished speaking, Linn did not reply immediately.
The atmosphere suddenly fell into a brief silence.
Just when the Captain of the Punisher, who was holding the Judge's Scale, was a little impatient, Linn finally spoke.
“Okay.”
His answer was brief.
"If that's the case, then don't blame us. Huh?"
The Captain of the Punisher, who was about to activate the effect of the sealed object, suddenly realized something.
After hearing Lin En's answer, he was stunned for a few seconds, and then looked around as if he had seen a ghost.
After reading similar thoughts on the faces of his subordinates and colleagues around him, he took a deep breath.
"What did you say?"
As if he was afraid that he heard wrongly, the captain of the punishment agent cautiously tried.
"I said, I surrender." Lin En suddenly raised his hand to remove the endless thread in the dark, and then slowly raised his hands, "You can capture me to receive the reward."< br>
This move instantly caused silence in the audience.
Are you kidding me?
At this moment, everyone, including the fourth prince Joshua, had such a thought in their minds.
You made such a big circle, assassinating congressmen and kidnapping a prince, but in the end it was just for some show effect?
Who believes it!
Thinking of this, everyone’s eyes became even more wary.
Seeing this, Lin En sighed softly.
In fact, when the person who first appeared in the old factory was not the limb recipient, Burl Human, he knew very well that his plan had probably failed.
Faced with the siege of more than a dozen extraordinary beings, even if they go all out, it seems a little doomed.
Especially when there are three high-sequence-level sealed artifacts in front of them, I am afraid that I don’t have much room for resistance.
Of course, Lin En actually has a hidden card.
But in the final analysis, that trump card was left behind to deal with the limb recipients.
After all, the opponent is a fourth-level transcendent. He is only one step away from being promoted to the fifth level. If you want to defeat the opponent, you must pay some price.
Unfortunately, the enemy he needs to face at this moment is not the limb recipient, but the official extraordinary person of the empire.
Lynn still feels a little distressed if he really wants to use that trump card on these guys.
So now we can only activate the alternative plan.
In other words.
He really wanted to surrender.
"If you don't believe it, you can throw the shackles over and I will put them on myself."
Lin sighed and tried to show his sincerity.
Unexpectedly, the other party did not agree to this proposal.
Who knows if this guy in front of me told a lie in order to escape from here!
"No need." After hearing this, the captain of the Punisher, the military department and the team leader of the Tianli Church looked at each other, and then said calmly, "You just need to stand where you are."
As he spoke, he took out a gold coin from his pocket and gently put it into the left side of the scale.
"Dang!" The crisp sound spread like a sound wave throughout the old factory.
In an instant, the invisible power of rules descended here.
"I apply for a ruling: At the cost of a gold coin, 'Lynn Bartleon' will be temporarily deprived of all desires."
All desires, of course, including the desire to survive and the intention to kill.
In other words, if this ruling really works, then in the next few minutes, Linn will be in a state of being unable to resist and have no desire or desire.
This is the best way to use it after countless vicious prisoners tried it.
The price is only one gold coin.
"Buzz!"
As the captain of the Punisher finished his words, the scale of the judge seemed to receive his expression, and instantly bloomed with a dazzling and dazzling light!
In an instant, a scale-like mark appeared on Lin En's head.
As some formless emotions and desires were quickly pulled out of his body, he suddenly felt his will become more depressed than ever before, and he slowly sat on the ground with his shoulders drooped.
"Now, you should believe it, right?"
Linn even lost the desire to speak and was weak.
He suddenly felt that it was a good choice to continue to mess up like this.
Seeing this, the captain of the punisher was still a little cautious.
"Put restraint shackles on him."
Having said that, for a second-level transcendent, such a battle is undoubtedly a bit too much.
Even so, when success was about to come, no one had the slightest idea of relaxing.
In just a few moments, you will be commended by the great Calderon and receive branches from the Tree of the Holy Spirit as a reward.
The reason why the reward makes people feel crazy is because this branch can bring the user to the tree of the Holy Spirit standing in the center of the imperial capital and grant him a wish.
As I said before, the Tree of the Holy Spirit has special characteristics and does not conform to people's traditional perspective principles.
Only those chosen by it can approach this tree.
Otherwise, no matter how hard you try, even if you travel across the entire Imperial Capital, you will never be able to get close to it. You will only see it standing in the center of the Imperial Capital, neither far nor near.
As long as there are branches of the tree of the Holy Spirit, all problems will be solved.
I have to say that the conditions are too tempting to refuse.
Therefore, everyone will be more cautious than ever before.
“Click!”
After locking the triple shackles tightly around Linn's joints and confirming that he could not violently injure anyone, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“Thank you for your hard work, everyone.”
The captain of the Punisher and the extraordinary men from the military and the Tenri Church bowed.
However, the expected polite words did not come.
He subconsciously looked up, only to find that the captains of the two forces were looking at each other with expressions that implied caution and a hint of vigilance.
"What are you still dawdling about?! Let me go!"
The fourth prince Joshua did not notice the strange atmosphere, and was immersed in the joy of resurrection, shouting loudly. .
After escaping this time, he cherished his life even more and vowed to stay in his research institute for the rest of his life and never come out again.
Not only that, in order to relieve his anxiety, he decided to dissect twenty virgins when he went back tonight to soothe the fear in his heart.
The kind without anesthesia.
"Your Highness, please be patient. I will do this for you."
"Wait a minute."
Just as the team of Punishers approached Joshua humbly, they Lin En, who was being monitored by several people, spoke again.
Hearing this, the Punisher Team frowned: "Stop his mouth."
"Yes."
The member of the Punisher on the side was about to take out a piece of cloth and stuff it into Linn's mouth.
“Of course you can block my mouth, or even sew it shut. This is the right of the winner.” Linn said in a weak voice, “But you can block my mouth. But it can’t block the suspicion in others’ hearts.”
“If I were you, I wouldn’t do such a stupid thing.”
Tun without anyone noticing. The Liar's invisible wave slowly swept across the entire audience.
For some reason, after hearing what this guy said, there was a faint thought of agreement in the heart of the captain of the punisher.
No, what am I thinking?
He was just about to interrupt this smooth-talking guy, but what he didn't want to blurt out was another sentence: "What else do you have to say?"
"You guys, the spoils are divided unevenly, right? ?”
Lynn sighed and said dejectedly.
Is the spoils divided unevenly?
joke!
As extraordinary beings who are loyal to the empire, they receive salaries from the empire and accept donations from the people. How could they ever share in the stolen goods like a murderous maniac like you?
However, before he could respond, Lin En continued to analyze by himself in that extremely sad tone.
“Although I don’t know what Saint Laurent VI promised to your superiors, I think it must be extremely precious. Only the first force to capture me alive can get this reward.”
Been Got it right? !
The Captain of the Punisher was suddenly shocked.
“However, after all, there are three parties that arrived in the old factory in the first wave. In addition to you, the punishers, there are also the military and the Tianli Church.”
“Although you keep saying Calling someone a colleague is a matter of interest, especially if it is such a coveted reward. Just being a colleague is not enough for them to give it away."
"As far as I know, It seems that there are still conflicts and differences left over from history that have not been resolved between the military and your punishers, and there are even some discords between the military and the Tianli Church."
"In the final analysis, there is only one reward. And I only have one." Lin En whispered feebly, "No matter which party fails to receive your Majesty's reward after escorting me back, they will be punished by their superiors."
"As someone who has personally experienced the first scene, not only did nothing, but I even gave away this credit. This is an extremely serious act of malfeasance."
"What on earth do you want to say?!"< br>
At this moment, the captain of the punisher finally realized the seriousness of the problem.
Lin tried to grin, but having lost all desire, he found that he could not even smile.
So he had no choice but to sigh helplessly: "I want to say you guys have a fight."
Hearing this, the Captain of the Punisher could no longer hold back: "Are you kidding me?! Do you think this little trick can work?"
However, this time, before he could say anything high-sounding, That's right, the extraordinary captain who belonged to the Tianli Church interrupted him with a very calm tone.
"No, this guy has a point."
Ten minutes later.
When the lost desire returned to the body, Lin En's hands slowly broke free from the shackles with an imperceptible "Gaba" sound.
After a long time, the thumb dislocation method is still as useful as ever.
Lin stood up slowly, looking at the old factory in a mess and the dozen or so figures lying unconscious on the ground, and couldn't help but smile.
Since ancient times, conspiracy has always been difficult to solve.
At least for the extraordinary beings from the three parties, with the orders from their superiors and the temptation of the emperor personally awarding them, no one of them could let the other take away this credit.
Even though everyone knew that this was Lin En's plan, they still couldn't stop themselves from getting involved.
Coupled with the influence of the Liar Eater, this chaos occurred.
“You, you devil.”
At this moment, the fourth prince Joshua was almost pissed with fear.
From his perspective, the joy of a comeback had just emerged in his heart, but before he could get out of trouble, he watched helplessly as this guy reversed the situation with a few words and became the winner again.
In my impression, only evil and fallen demons have such means.
It's really terrible!
Help, help!
However, at this moment, Lin En didn't even have the mood to pay attention to him.
The fourth prince Joshua must die.
It’s not just that he is unpleasant to look at, because in the subsequent plot, the ruins project he leads will seriously affect the future direction of the world.
Therefore, Lynn wanted to try to nip it in the bud to see what impact it would have on the plot deviation.
Just when this idea just appeared in my mind, a sound suddenly came from behind.
Lin turned around instantly, a strong warning sign appeared in his mind.
By the moonlight, he saw a second-level transcendent wearing a black robe from the Tianli Church who should have been lying on the ground with unknown life and death. He was slowly getting up from the ground with his body trembling.
His eyes were scarlet, hiding uncontrollable hatred and murderous intent.
Downright malice and resentment swept over him.
This creepy feeling is enough to make some weak-willed beings faint in an instant.
Although there was no reason, Lin En immediately had a suspicion in his mind the moment he met those eyes.
The person in front of me is the limb-replacer, Burschmann.
The fourth-level transcendent with the "malevolent" belief.
From the day Lin En and Ku Xiu Stein became enemies, it was destined that this situation would happen.
At this moment, the black-haired boy who was truly exercising justice was despised by thousands of people and was regarded as a limb replacement and was nailed to the pillar of shame.
And the being who had committed heinous acts had somehow slipped into the ranks of those shouting for justice, wearing the black robe of the Church of Heaven like a dog.
This is an extremely ironic scene.
“Finally, I found you.”
(ps: As long as you keep moving forward, the road will continue to extend.)
