Kid, don't look back, keep acting.
The old-fashioned coded message remained on the isolation communicator for only two seconds.
Bai Zhi's hand had already pressed the save button.
"Don't touch it!"
Her voice changed.
Shenhou raised his stick to block Chen Yifan, and then flicked Bai Zhi's chin.
"Don't be alarmed, read it first."
Bai Zhi quickly scanned the area, her brows furrowing.
"It is neither the Celestial Communication Format nor the Lamplighter's current key."
She paused for a moment.
"Closer to the old system's short code."
On the other side of the Rabbit projection, the data stream paused for a moment.
Shenhou stopped joking.
Chen Yifan lowered his head, his fingertips brushing against the blood on his palm.
It cannot be exposed.
The storyline involving Wang Qingyun cannot yet be fully captured by the Rabbit, Monkey, and Rat.
At least it can't be revealed from him.
He coughed twice, his voice weak but steady.
"I don't understand."
The mouse's voice came through the communicator.
"Vital signs are normal."
Chen Yifan almost wanted to shove the communicator into his mouth.
This rat is so annoying.
Shenhou glanced at the communication terminal.
"Could you please stop repeating this every three sentences? It makes you seem like you have a lot of free time."
The rat returned lazily.
"I'm just bored."
Shenhou was momentarily speechless, then pointed at the communication terminal and cursed.
"Once this is over, I'll tear down the door to your censorship area."
Rabbit ignored them.
She gave the order directly.
"Bai Zhi, copy the original coded document and seal it offline."
"The Xia family's recycling operation has been brought forward."
The monkey turned its head.
"Now?"
"Chenlong is already destroying the evidence."
The Rabbit retrieved satellite images of the Xia family ruins.
The main structure of the manor has mostly collapsed.
The energy cracks left by the Heaven-Sealing and Earth-Locking Array are still flashing.
"We're sending two teams."
"Team Ming will follow the official procedures and enter the venue under the name of the Department of Penalties."
"The secret team will take the backup route through the review area, bypassing the Chenlong dispatch chain."
Shenhou laughed as soon as he heard that.
"You've finally learned how to scheme."
Rabbit gave him a cold look.
Do you really think she's just a clueless newbie who only knows how to grant permissions?
Shenhou immediately waved his hand.
"You're being praised, really praised."
The rat opened its mouth.
"I'll send the men from the Dark Team."
"Do not let the dragon line come into contact with the site."
Rabbit opens the taskbar.
[The task of recovering remnants from the Xia family battlefield has been generated.]
[Team Ming: Third Group, Penal Division.]
[Dark Team: Shadow Patrol Squad of the Inspection Area.]
[Technical support: Remote assistance from Bai Zhi, a direct associate of Mao Tu.]
Chen Yifan leaned back in the metal chair, maintaining his outer disguise.
He is now a star official.
Seriously injured.
Pollution.
High-risk witness.
Everyone assumed he was locked in a Level A quarantine procedure.
But in that pool of blood on the ground, there was a small shadow that didn't move with the light.
Those were the shadow anchors he deliberately left when he coughed up blood.
The Shadow Clone cannot stray too far from the main body, nor can it last too long.
But from the sky to the bottom elevator shaft, and then to the ruins of Kyoto, there are too many shadows and cracks along the way.
The entire city is now under martial law, the lights are chaotic, and there are fault lines everywhere in the ruins.
enough.
Chen Yifan suppressed his surface thoughts and put them into the category of star officials.
The star official was seriously injured.
The star official did not know what the code meant.
The results of the review by the star officials, etc.
Deep within the sea of consciousness, the Purple Gold Pagoda suppressed all fluctuations.
A shadow slipped out from a crack in the isolation room floor.
Over the phone, Zishu gave a soft "hmm".
The monkey immediately became alert.
"What are you 'umming' about?"
The mouse paused for two seconds.
"It's nothing, just a sore throat."
"Don't give me that."
"There's a small fluctuation in the vital signs monitoring."
Shen Hou's face darkened.
Speak like a human.
A mouse ran past.
Who are you insulting?
The rat didn't respond.
Chen Yifan almost lost his composure.
This rat is quite something.
However, he didn't point it out.
This indicates that they don't want to undermine the project for the time being.
Or perhaps he's waiting for this "mouse" to bite off Chenlong's tail.
……
Kyoto.
The ruins of the Xia family.
The rain wasn't heavy.
The Xia family had already evacuated from here and moved to another residence.
The manor's outer perimeter was sealed off by the low-ranking Lamplighters, with three layers of yellow tape marking the perimeter.
This kind of lockdown can keep ordinary people out.
It can't stop something deadly.
Chen Yifan's shadow clone fell along the broken wall.
The farther this clone is from the main body, the weaker it becomes; currently, it only possesses 30% of the main body's combat power.
However, with the external path's inner palace and the gene lock that can be temporarily opened, it's still enough.
He didn't use Chen Yifan's face.
The clone was enveloped in blurry light and shadow, obscuring its appearance. Its aura was very low as it hid in the shadows of the ruins.
The main building of the Xia family was breached.
The fist mark in the center of the courtyard is still there.
Rainwater falls in and is quickly evaporated by the residual energy.
Chen Yifan glanced at it and then looked away.
can't stop.
There are traces of his actions everywhere here.
Every second you pause increases the risk.
Footsteps could be heard in the distance.
The Department of Punishments' Ming team has arrived.
The leader was a burly man in black armor, whose shoulder insignia indicated he was a subordinate of the Monkey Clan, and his number was Shen San.
"Quick action."
"Lord Rabbit's order is to retrieve the fragments of the Heaven-Sealing Array, the blood scales of the Snake's clone, and the remaining karmic remnants from the scene."
Don't touch things you shouldn't touch.
One of the team members muttered to himself.
"With this place ravaged like this, what's left?"
Shen San turned around and glared at him.
"Shut up."
"The more anxious Chenlong is, the more it means there's something here."
The technician unfolds the sampling box.
As the first fragment of the battle flag was picked up, a metallic scraping sound suddenly rang out from the west side of the ruins.
Chen Yifan's clone made the first move.
It wasn't about saving people.
He slid along the wall to the other side, avoiding the first wave of attacks.
The next second, seven figures rushed out of the ruined building.
They were all wearing standard lamplighter armor.
But their actions were incorrect.
The knees bend backwards.
The shoulder blades bulge.
Dark purple blood was seeping from under the helmet.
Shen San reacted quickly.
"Enemy attack!"
The black-armored squad immediately formed a battle formation.
One of the contamination assassins raised his hand, and a thin golden chain flew from his palm, wrapping directly around the sampling box.
Shen San's expression changed.
"A chain of cause and effect?!"
This is not something an ordinary lamplighter can use.
At the very least, it must be connected to the Chenlong system's access control network.
Shen San smashed half of the chain with his stick, but he was still too slow.
The sampling box was dragged out two meters.
The contaminated assassin's other hand was already pressed towards the self-destruct core.
Chen Yifan's clone made his move at this moment.
The shadow rose from the ground, wrapped around the bottom of the sampling box, and yanked it sharply.
The box flew out of their hands and back into the black-armored formation.
Shen San was taken aback.
"Who?"
"Who's there!"
No one answered.
Chen Yifan's clone skimmed over the ruins and casually picked up a fragment of the array's core from the ground.
The fragments were entangled with the venomous mist of the Si Snake and remnants of the Heaven-Sealing and Earth-Locking Formation.
The first piece of evidence is in hand.
But at that moment, the contaminated assassins self-destructed.
boom!
Half of the remaining wall was blown apart.
The black-armored squad was thrown back three steps.
The technician yelled.
"The video has been sent back!"
Inside the Sky Dome temporary data cabin.
Bai Zhi's screen suddenly lit up.
The footage of the Xia family's scene was simultaneously pulled up.
Everyone saw the thin golden chain flicked from the palm of the contaminated assassin.
Shenhou slammed his hand on the table.
"The Chenlong System of Causal Chains"
"And now they're saying it was the Council of Order who did it?"
The Rabbit immediately zoomed in on the image.
"The chain structure is incomplete, but the source matches the Chenlong access control link."
The rat slowly interjected.
"Chenlong will say it's been contaminated and fabricated."
Shenhou sneered.
"Then let him continue forging."
"The more faked, the more impressive."
Chen Yifan sat on the isolation chair, his face pale and his breathing erratic.
"The Xia family... has there been a result?"
Shenhou glanced at him.
"You seem quite concerned."
Chen Yifan lowered his head.
"My subordinate almost died there."
This statement makes sense when applied to a star deity.
The rat remained silent.
Chen Yifan held his breath.
not enough.
The causal chain can only prove that Chenlong destroyed evidence.
It's not enough to completely destroy the other party and have contact with the Holy Lord.
Looks like we'll have to resort to some tactics!
……
Deep within the ruins of the Xia family estate.
Chen Yifan's clone bypassed the main battlefield and sneaked into the collapsed area in the backyard.
This was where Chen Xue once hid.
He didn't look at it much.
There were still cracks left by Xia Nan after she opened the shield in the corner.
On the other side, several black scales were embedded in the ground.
The scales left behind after the snake splits and transforms.
Chen Yifan's clone opened his palm.
In his palm was the remnant of the life essence that the Holy Lord had previously injected into his body.
From the moment Chenlong listed him as a container and threatened him with his family, he had no intention of letting Chenlong leave the table alive.
But Chenlong is the head of the lamp-bearers.
He doesn't have the strength to kill them outright yet.
Since that's the case, let's smash his pedestal first.
This wisp of energy was originally the tip of the knife he was preparing to use to finish off the enemy.
Only by linking Chenlong and the Holy Lord to the same chain of evidence will the other twelve zodiac signs truly take action against Chenlong.
Just as Chen Yifan was about to make his move, the Purple Gold Pagoda in his mental space trembled.
Something is responding beneath the ruins.
It wasn't a response to him.
It was in response to the bit of Holy Lord's Source in his hands.
very weak.
Chen Yifan's clone stopped.
That was the life essence left behind by the Holy Lord.
He had originally extracted the Green Crystal Needle using the power of all things, and then refined a portion of it.
He would never mistake this aura.
The clone burrowed into the underground fissure.
Even if this clone perishes here, it's not a loss.
Below is a secret chamber that was collapsed by the great formation.
The temporary luck-changing runes carved on the wall have been deliberately burned down.
Chen Yifan raised his hand and grabbed.
The rubble was turned over.
A green light emerged from the crack.
The green light was very small.
If it weren't for the Purple Gold Pagoda's reaction, even a regular detector might not be able to find it after scanning ten times.
But the most dangerous thing isn't the green light.
Outside the green light, a ring of golden causal threads was wrapped around it.
The two frequencies are synchronizing.
Chen Yifan's clone stopped at the fingertips.
Chenlong did indeed come into contact with the Holy Lord.
And more than once.
He originally only wanted to throw out the bait to force the other members of the twelve zodiac signs to put pressure on Chenlong and make him reveal a weakness.
It turned out the real item was in the Xia family's underground store.
"Let's see how you try to argue this time."
Just as Chen Yifan was about to put away the green light, he heard a whooshing sound overhead.
Three people died from the pollution incident after falling through the collapse.
Instead of rushing towards Chen Yifan's clone, they simultaneously raised their hands, aiming at the ball of green light.
"destroy."
Two mechanical words rang out.
Chen Yifan's clone didn't waste any words.
The shadow burst open.
The clone kicked the nearest assassin over, grabbed the green light in its hand, and stuffed it directly into the fragment of the array eye.
The second assassin swung out the Chain of Cause and Effect, which wrapped around his left arm.
Half of the clone's body was torn apart on the spot.
This body cannot withstand such a high intensity of causal tension.
But Chen Yifan had no intention of fighting head-on.
He followed the pulling force and rammed forward, his right-hand short blade piercing the assassin's chest, pulling out a dark purple core.
"It's too late."
He crushed the dark purple core.
The body of the contaminated soldier froze.
Just as the third assassin was about to self-destruct, a figure in black armor suddenly descended from above the ruins.
Shen San has arrived.
He smashed the assassin's kneecap with a club and roared.
"Keep alive!"
Chen Yifan's clone didn't turn around, but threw the sealed array core fragments at him.
"then."
Shen San caught it.
"Who are you?"
Chen Yifan's clone had retreated to the edge of the shadows.
Upload now.
Shen San reacted quickly, immediately stuffing the fragments of the array eye into the sampling box.
"technician!"
"pass!"
He had already sensed what was inside.
The sampling box initiates offline data transmission.
The remnant of the green crystal.
Golden causal threads.
Snake scales.
Fragments of the Heaven-Sealing Formation.
Four sets of data were simultaneously entered into the Sky Dome Temporary Module.
Bai Zhi's fingers froze after just one glance.
"Usagi-sama..."
"The green crystal is the source of life, and the parasitic pollution on the star official's body is of the same origin."
Shenhou frowned.
What does this mean?
Bai Zhi superimposed the data onto the causal remnants of Chenlong.
The two curves overlap on the screen.
"Same frequency".
She swallowed.
"If it were just external deity contamination, the frequency wouldn't be so clean."
"Mechanical sparks can be grafted, but causal resonance cannot be faked."
"Unless Chenlong himself has lent out his causal threads."
The Rabbit was silent for half a second.
The rat's voice also lost its laziness.
"Chenlong actively made contact with this external consciousness."
Shenhou pointed at the screen.
"Can this be preserved as evidence in a court ruling?"
Bai Zhi nodded immediately.
"able."
"And the evidence is even stronger than that of mechanical fire."
Shenhou suddenly burst out laughing.
"it is good."
"Now Old Dragon can't get clean."
Chen Yifan sat on the isolation chair, his wrist still fastened with a metal ring.
He glanced up at the screen, his tone perfectly controlled.
"Then... can my subordinate's testimony prove it?"
Shenhou looked at him.
"able."
"At least it proves that the person who wanted to silence you is a very problematic individual."
The rat suddenly spoke.
"Star Lord, your life curve is messed up again."
Chen Yifan coughed softly.
"I heard that I am not going to die."
Shenhou didn't scold him this time; instead, he nodded.
That makes sense.
"I would be just as confused."
The rat didn't ask any further questions.
However, something happened to Chen Yifan's clone.
……
The underground fissure of the Xia family.
Just as Chen Yifan's clone was about to disappear into the shadows, the vegetation in the entire collapsed area suddenly grew wildly.
The broken roots emerged from the cracks in the rock and wrapped around his ankle.
Green light seeped from every leaf.
It then rotted rapidly.
The clone raised its hand and severed the roots, but its body suddenly sank.
A dark purple gaze fell upon him.
Not in the sky.
Not with Chenlong.
From outside the stargate.
In the center of the ruins, a green-haired figure slowly materialized.
Chen Yifan could never forget that face.
Holy Lord.
It was just a phantom.
The left half of his body, which could split into two, had begun to crack.
The Holy Lord looked down at him, his tone still carrying that unpleasant ease.
"We've found the line."
Chen Yifan's clone did not speak.
The external spiritual power was suppressed to the lowest level.
The shadow passage is just one breath away from opening.
The Holy Lord raised his hand.
"Don't rush."
"I'm not here to kill you."
Fingertips fall.
Half of the clone's body exploded on the spot.
The shadow portal was interrupted.
Chen Yifan coughed up blood suddenly while sitting on the isolation chair in the sky.
Bai Zhi was startled.
"Pollution levels have skyrocketed!"
Shenhou charged forward in one step.
"Star Lord?"
Chen Yifan raised his hand and pressed it to his chest, his voice broken.
"fine……"
The rat suddenly fell silent.
"wrong."
"The parasitic contamination on his body was triggered remotely."
Bai Zhi immediately retrieved the test results.
[Parasites are active.]
[Homologous green crystal recoil.]
[A brief intrusion of external consciousness.]
The Rabbit (卯兔) switches to the scene at the Xia family's residence.
The screen is filled with static.
Only the last frame.
The green-haired phantom stood in the ruins, looking up at the sky.
The sound traveled back to the temporary data cabin along with the broken signal.
"Chenlong".
"Stop hiding it."
"The door you chose is about to open."
