Chapter 30: The Evil Cult and the Ethereal Authority This was the first time Chen Xiang saw the world outside the Eight Rings. He saw the Seventh Ring Road. Unlike the Eighth Ring Road with skyscrapers that housed thousands of people, the Seventh Ring Road had far fewer tall buildings. Instead, there were factories and vast tracts of farmland. The hovercraft passed over the high wall between the Seventh Ring Road and the Sixth Ring Road, and the mysterious Middle Third Ring Road came into view. You can see vast parks that are definitely not found in the Outer Third Ring Road, a super Ferris wheel hundreds of meters high, and a bustling commercial street. There are also many flying cars in the sky and aerial tracks crisscrossing between the buildings, which are very different from the Eight Rings. It is much more prosperous and cleaner. Zhang Zhibao looked at the boy leaning against the car window and looking down, and couldn't help but sneered: "Bumpkin." Chen Xiang ignored him and just watched quietly. When the hovercraft passed the huge wall between the fifth and fourth ring roads, Chen Xiang looked into the distance with his eyes wide open.
What separates the Fourth Ring Road from the Third Ring Road is no longer a high wall, but a piece of fog, a semicircular fog that covers the entire inner three ring roads. No one can see into it. In astonishment, The hovercraft slowly descended and finally stopped in front of a majestic building. ……………… Happy Orphanage, inner courtyard. Dean Wang sat in the garden and calmly drank a sip of tea: "Is Wu Jinlu's son still in the Secret Investigation Department?" "Yes." The servant carefully poured hot water into the teacup: "He is still detained in the Secret Investigation Department." Dean Wang seemed to be thinking: "The day of the God's coming is getting closer, and the container is imminent. Before Wu Jinlu died, he reported that he had found a new container, but he didn't say anything specific." The servant said respectfully: "Bishop, it will take some time to find out." "Then let's check it out." Dean Wang put down the teacup, stood up leisurely, but his brows suddenly frowned. "Huh? This is." The next moment, he started coughing violently, gasping for breath, and gradually lowered his back. "bishop?" The servant stepped forward in surprise, but saw Dean Wang holding out his hand to stop him: "Away from me!" His face flushed. He tore open the portal to the spiritual world and walked in. The oppression in the dark was partially dissipated, but his coughing became even more violent! But not long after, he coughed out some internal organs with a "puff" sound. Some pieces of internal organs burning with dark flames. "Black Flame? He is the one favored by the abyss. When?"
He remembered the glimmer of fire he saw in the boy's eyes. "He is with Wei Qi, from Donghong Kingdom? Someone from the Imperial Observatory? Or..." Dean Wang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his face twisted slightly, his skin became extremely dry, and there were burn marks all over his face. The internal organs were burned by the dark flames and turned into pure white ashes, which were then blown away by the wind. ……………… Four rings. Chen Xiang was surrounded by two investigators on the left and right and entered the building. He was led into a long corridor with detention rooms on both sides. Someone stood up: "Chen Xiang?" Chen Xiang glanced sideways and saw that it was Li Dongyun. "Quiet!" Zhang Zhibao shouted, and continued to walk deeper with Chen Xiang. During this time, he saw other familiar people, including Wu Shangpin lying on the bed, and Lin Yulang with a gloomy expression. They both saw him. After walking through the corridor to the end, Chen Xiang was taken into an interrogation room. Zhang Zhibao pushed him in roughly and threw a box at him. "Hand in the sundries." Chen Xiang silently put his cell phone in, thought for a moment, and then put the hand-cranked bell he was carrying in as well. "Gone." Zhang Zhibao looked at the hand bell and the cell phone, but was too lazy to search him. He nodded to another investigator: "Old Liu, go inform Lord Lan and tell him that the cultists have been brought here." "to make." The investigator responded readily and strode out of the interrogation room, while Zhang Zhibao slowly sat down. "Chen Xiang, born in April 1500, is a formal teaching assistant at Colossus Academy." He said calmly: "Please briefly describe your conflict with the Crocodile Clan and why you appeared at the Wu Manor on the night of May 5th?" Chen Xiang frowned, but did not hide anything and told everything. "You said you killed Man Dong, and then you brought his head to provoke me?" Zhang Zhibao smiled: "I've read your information. You've always been mediocre. After being appreciated by Lin Yulang, you were admitted to the Colossus Academy. What's the matter with your strength?" "I've been practicing." "You can fight a quasi-extraordinary without getting hurt. You must have entered the level of an Extraordinary yourself, right? An 18-year-old Extraordinary, huh." Zhang Zhibao put his legs up on the iron table: "Tell me, which evil god church do you belong to? Where did you and Li Dongyun go after leaving Wu's Manor on May 5?"
Chen Xiang's expression did not change, he just said patiently: "Sir, I am not a member of the Church of the Evil God. I just have good talent. After leaving Wu's Manor, I naturally returned home. Besides..." He asked sincerely: "Excuse me, sir, what happened at Wu's Manor? I saw on the news that it was a biochemical leak, which really has nothing to do with me." As he spoke, Chen Xiang recalled the definition of cults he had read in the textbook of Colossus Academy. There are a total of ten churches of the true gods, namely the nine outer gods and the Death Titan. Apart from these, all other sects belong to the 'Church of the Evil God', and all the [true gods] who dare to establish a religion are also classified as [evil gods]. "Keep pretending!" Zhang Zhibao slammed the table fiercely: "Continue to explain your relationship with Lin Yulang. Humph, for no reason, he would accept you into the Colossus Academy? As a Beyonder, would you be willing to be an assistant teacher?" As he spoke, Zhang Zhibao stared at Chen Xiang: "Lin Yulang has already confessed, why don't you confess?" Chen Xiang burst out laughing: "Sir, I don't know what Lecturer Lin said, but before May 5th, I did not know Lecturer Lin." "is it?" Zhang Zhibao smiled: "You are actually a member of the Xu Ling cult, right? The higher-ups have already defined boundaries for you cults. If you want to cause trouble, go to the ninth ring. No one will stop you. But the eighth ring is not allowed!" Chen Xiang was really confused. The Xu Ling evil cult? The Nine Rings? Also, what does 'also' mean? He was keenly aware of something wrong and looked solemn: "You mean, Lecturer Lin is a member of that evil cult?" "Still pretending." Zhang Zhibao snorted coldly, walked out of the interrogation room, and walked in a moment later holding a box. He threw the box in front of Chen Xiang and stared at him: "Let me guess what happened. Wu Jinlu, Lin Yulang and you are all members of the Void Spirit Cult who are lurking in the Eighth Ring. On the night of May 5, you used the conflict as an excuse to cover up the church ceremony or sacrifice, but something unexpected happened and you summoned a ghost at the level of a heavenly messenger. Am I right?" Chen Xiang frowned: "Sir, I really don't know what the Void Spirit Cult is." "Lin Yulang has already confessed. What? Do you think I'm lying to you?" Zhang Zhibao suddenly opened the wooden box and said sternly: "Then explain to me what this is!" Chen Xiang looked at the wooden box, which contained a strange hand. The palm part was intact, with a ring on each of the five fingers, but the flesh on the arm had completely disappeared, leaving only a pale hand bone. The hand bones are surrounded by a dark color, and there are twisted runes engraved on them, and the whole thing appears to be "empty". "Wu Jinlu's hand?" Chen Xiang was stunned. Zhang Zhibao sneered: "You are just unlucky. When the big ghost swallowed Wu Jinlu, it bit off this arm and it fell nearby." After a pause, he said coldly: "Carving a ray of the essence of the void on the hand bones, isn't this the symbol of you Void Spirit followers? You are so stubborn. The door to the interrogation room was pushed open. "Investigator Zhang!"
A sharp shout sounded: "I signed to assist in the investigation, not an arrest warrant. What's wrong with you?" Zhang Zhibao was startled, and Chen Xiangyi relaxed his brows and looked at the person who came. She was a young woman with a ponytail, a pretty face, and tight clothes. She looked very capable. "Master Lan" Zhang Zhibao nodded and bowed: "It has been confirmed that this person is a cultist, and the arrest warrant can be signed." Lan Sheng raised his eyebrows and said unhappily: "You guys, are you serious?" She was stunned for a moment, and looked at the box containing Chen Xiang's sundries. She saw the hand-cranked bell in it at first glance. Very familiar. Very familiar. Lan Sheng's pupils suddenly shrank and he picked up the handbell. It belongs to Deputy Director Wu. Is this boy Deputy Director Wu's junior? Deputy Director Wu gave Ling'er to him for self-defense? No wonder Deputy Director Wu refused to sign the arrest warrant. Lan Sheng felt that he had figured it out, and looked towards the young man, only to see that the young man had reached his hand into the box containing the virtual hand bones at some point. "You're crazy!!" Lansheng's scalp was tingling. A vague sound sounded in Chen Xiang's ears. “Emptying authority.” “Partially completed.” Different from last time. This time, Chen Xiang saw a huge and majestic god in a trance. The gods saw him, too. (End of this chapter)
