Law Enforcer's Handbook

Chapter 872 Believe, it is true

time lapse...

After an unknown period of time, Song Lan once again saw his former partner who fought side by side.

After the two arrived, the agents of the Bureau of Investigation took the initiative to give up the space that looked like an underground mausoleum to them.

Song Lan and Lu Xiang stood in front of this row of lifelike statues. Every insect was carefully crafted. For a moment, he seemed to see his partner take off the black shell and spread its wings to fly. on his shoulders.

This is the imperial seat of General "Black Flash", a symbol of glory and the runner-up of the first Cricket Fighting Competition.

"Remember the past?"

Lu Xiang asked softly.

When exploring the "Sea of ​​Soul", she had a faint premonition.

It's just that she originally thought that it would be a church that hides the secrets of the past, or a place that looks more sacred. The space where the statues are displayed in front of her looks more like the remains of a magnificent building.

"Sea of ​​Souls" believes that someone modified a certain period of history in the past. Although it didn't say it explicitly, it pointed to Song Lan, the current number one suspect, both openly and secretly.

And in Lu Xiang's cognition, only this dumb bird can do this kind of thing.

Song Lan's reaction seemed to indicate the reason why this ruin survived - this insect named Black Flash was his former partner, so that he was moved by the scene during the revision process, and kept these statues out of selfishness.

Of course, the prefix "Universe Invincible" was automatically ignored by Lu Xiang.

As the leader of the swarm, she even sympathized with the little bug named "Black Flash" from the bottom of her heart. It must be embarrassing for everyone to hear her full name in public.

Comparing heart to heart, even with the relationship between her and Song Lan, if Song Lan added "Universe Invincible" to her name in public, she would probably be so irritable that she wanted to hit someone.

"Fighting Cricket Contest."

"Fighting Cricket Competition?"

Sure enough, none of the serious competitions that could arouse Song Lan's interest.

"This one is called the 'Golden Lion', and it was the champion of the first Cricket Fighting Competition."

Some familiar images came to Song Lan's mind.

He did take part in the event, more than once.

He also remembered that every rule of the game was perfected by him bit by bit, because compared to the complicated and cumbersome practice of spiritual abilities, or to devote himself to certain beliefs that he was not interested in at all, an exciting cricket fighting competition was more important. Much more attractive.

The rigid and serious archbishop originally did not agree to hold the event, but eventually lost to public opinion.

Under his active operation, he cooperated internally and externally with the top leaders of the church, making the Cricket Fighting Competition a grand ceremony belonging to the church. No matter what their status is, everyone can fully enjoy the fun brought by the grand ceremony.

However, Archbishop Dargon Vader felt threatened from it, and believed that the bishop's authority had been challenged.

"The first Cricket Fighting Competition is of great significance to the church. It has fully relieved the tension and depression caused by the war."

Since the outbreak of the war, the entire Fourth District has become lifeless, "Also, this is the fun learning method I advocate, you can hone in the joyful and exciting competition... Interference type psionic power."

Song Lan paused, and chose a term that Lu Xiang could understand.

But that's not what they were called at the time.

"Hone your psionic abilities."

Lu Xiang grasped the key information. She listened carefully to every class taught by Professor Miles. Up to now, the spiritual ability research institute has not researched the specific way to hone the spiritual ability. Nowadays, the growth of every psychic ability The methods are all different, except for stimulating the brain with electric current to keep them in an abnormal state all the time, they can't conclude any rules.

She suddenly realized, "No wonder you don't know anything about the basics of spiritual abilities."

Lu Xiang has always been suspicious of this. It is hard for her to imagine that a person who is proficient in advanced mathematics will not understand elementary school mathematics, unless...

These "calculations" are just things that latecomers pieced together based on incomplete history, and they are far from the true appearance of psionic power.

She asked curiously, "How did people practice at that time?"

"Believe it, it is true."

This is the preaching that most people will hear when they become believers. When they came to the fourth district, it was the talk conducted by Archbishop Dargun Vida himself in the prayer room of the church.

"Ok?"

"Probably similar to please choose your mentor. The path you choose is said to determine the direction of your ability."

"Supposedly?"

"My situation is different from other people's."

When he was picked up in the fourth district, before he chose any path, his ability had already been finalized.

Although all this was extremely unfamiliar to Lu Xiang, she continued the conversation as much as possible, "So, what path did you choose at that time?"

""nothingness"."

"Nothingness? This is quite in line with your personality. Everything in the world will eventually return to nothingness. If you look at it from a longer-term perspective, maybe everything we do now is meaningless... This idea may lead to the same goal as you."

After getting along with Song Lan for a long time, the first thing Lu Xiang thought of was not a specific person, but a certain concept.

Just like the salted fish virus.

Everyone who had in-depth contact with Song Lan was inevitably affected in the end.

"As expected of you, Lao Lu, you thought of all of this all at once, but..."

Song Lan hesitated to speak.

Regarding the concept of nothingness, he actually only learned about it later.

"But what?"

"But I didn't think about it so much at the time, I just chose one at random."

The main reason why he chose the path of "Nothingness" was that the phantom representing "Nothingness" was closest to him at that time, "Maybe, this is fate."

"You..."

Lu Xiang felt as if his breath was stuck in his chest, and he couldn't speak for a long time.

Song Lan can always give her a surprise blow in an unexpected place.

She could imagine that Song Lan and the archbishop Dargon Vader he said were in the midst of holy prayers, facing those existences in the upper world, and about to choose a choice that would affect his life. What a solemn scene, and the dull bird chose the one closest to him.

Perhaps the archbishop, no, even "Nihing" didn't know why Song Lan chose him in the first place.

"But we did get along very well at the time, and we were like-minded."

"Maybe he was just assimilated by you."

After getting along with Song Lan for a long time, no one can escape the fate of being assimilated by him, even "Nothingness" is no exception. Lu Xiang thought of something and said, "'Golden Lion', who won the first competition The winner of the cricket competition is "nothingness"?"

Although the prefix of the "Universal Invincible" series is missing, the naming style is obviously from the same school.

Even Lu Xiang himself was affected.

For Song Lan, who fished for three days and posted the net for two days, and was a king of fishing for a week if he was absent from work, if it were her before, she would definitely kick him out, but now...

Not only did she turn a blind eye, but she even tried to find ways to make up for it in other ways.

This is tantamount to collusion.

Lu Xiang, who has always been known for his integrity in Venus, was eventually corrupted.

"Well, the 'Nothingness' player is quite capable."

Song Lan put her arms around her chest and said in an appraising tone.

"Why does it sound like you're the champion?"

"Because the Cricket Fighting Competition lasts more than one time, according to the overall record of fighting, I still have a relatively high winning rate."

Lu Xiang was startled, she rarely saw Song Lan showing such a complacent expression.

Song Lan is the person she has met with the least desire to win or lose. In his words, being obsessed with winning or losing will only bring him trouble and enemies. This is not in line with his philosophy of life, but he seems I am very concerned about the Cricket Fighting Competition.

"So, the old friend who came to you is 'Nothing'?"

"Except for him, no one else should be able to find this place."

"I thought all your friends were dead."

Lu Xiang remembered that Song Lan mentioned the existence of the upper world after his trip to the Wisteria Academy, and he said that there was no one there.

The dean of the Wisteria Academy has fulfilled his long-cherished wish, but unfortunately, there is no one waiting for him anymore.

Referring to the fate of other friends Song Lan made in District [-], Lu Xiang guessed that those existences had all died out.

"Most of them are."

"So, he came to you this time for revenge?"

"Do not."

Song Lan stared at the lifelike statue in front of him. "Nothingness" attracted them here through the eye-catching Vadim, just to convey a message to him.

"The 37th Cricket Fighting Competition is coming soon."

..........................................

Meanwhile, Hotel Eden.

The four-person team headed by Veronica and Valen reunited here. After realizing that Lu Qi's mentor seemed not so reliable, they decided to take other means.

Therefore, Roger, who has been acting abnormally since he came to the fourth district, became the object of their focus.

There is no doubt that Roger has become stronger.

Although they failed to save the founder of Kolo Films, he did indeed kill the humanoid monster that ate Thingosi's body.

This is obviously because Roger changed after he came to the fourth district. You must know that the day before his departure, he participated in an underground boxing match because he was drunk and then knocked down his opponent with a punch, which made his winning percentage as a professional boxer It became 0 wins and 2 losses.

In this regard, Roger's explanation is that after coming to the fourth district, he came into contact with some kind of natural force.

When the crisis came and he, as one of the few male compatriots in the team, had to shoulder the burden of protecting his colleagues, the forces of nature responded to him.

And it wasn't until the four of them decided to have a special meeting on what Roger said about the natural forces that they suddenly discovered how outrageous this matter was.

The most outrageous thing among them is that before the meeting, they actually accepted the setting of "natural energy" for a long time in the past.

"Wait a minute, why do we take Roger's connection to a force of nature for granted?"

Zhuang Chi attacked the case.

Veronica and Valenne looked at each other, and they couldn't answer this question for a while.

In fact, until now, they still don't know what Roger said about natural energy.

"I'll sort it out a little more."

With a wave of Zhuang Chi's little hand, his thoughts went back to the first day they came to the fourth district.

They encountered many things on the first day.

The buyer of the autographed photo died tragically at home, and her dream of making a fortune completely fell through. It was also that night that Roger had the idea of ​​protecting his companion.

then……

Roger locked himself in the room overnight and got in touch with the natural energy he said.

He didn't even put on his boxing gloves and hit the punching bag to build his arm strength!
Although it sounded extremely absurd in the past, the fact that Roger killed the monster is a certainty, so they have to believe that natural energy is real, and try to rationalize this twisted and bizarre story as much as possible.

Then it occurred to them that if natural energy existed, perhaps each of them could master it.

"Roger, you said you stayed in your room all night that day, right?"

"Ah."

"What have you done?"

"meditation."

"meditation?"

The three of them frowned in unison. They felt that things were becoming more and more bizarre. Only those characters in magical works could become stronger through meditation.

"Come and show us."

"It's a bit inconvenient here, I need to go to my own room."

"Okay, then go to your room."

Accompanied by the three of them, Roger entered his room with dignity.

Under the eyes of everyone, he closed the curtains, turned on the bed, and covered himself with a quilt.

The three of them just stood there, their eyes never leaving Roger.

Even the way of meditation was far from what they imagined—Roger didn't even pretend to sit cross-legged on the ground, posing in an unknown pose, but directly got into the quilt.

"That's how he slept all night?"

Veronica was full of doubts.

She didn't feel at all from Roger's actions that he wanted to protect his companions, but she could only see that his sleep quality should be good.

"Roger, Roger?"

After 10 minutes, seeing that there was still no movement from Roger, Zhuang Chi tentatively called the other party's name.

Roger didn't respond, only the sound of even breathing came.

"Roger... just fell asleep, right?"

Valian raised the question in everyone's mind, "The practice of natural energy is just a dream he had after he fell asleep?"

"No, it shouldn't be."

Veronica said suddenly, her gaze stayed on Roger's body as if possessed by a demon, Zhuang Chi and Valen discovered her abnormality.

Veronica's lips moved, and she muttered to herself, "His dream..."

"His dream? What happened to his dream? No, no, why do you know what he dreamed of?"

"A muscular man appeared!"

"what?"

"The muscular man is teaching him fighting skills!"

　Thank you for the 100 starting coins rewarded by an alien!
　　Little Theater IX of its 230:
　　On a certain day, a certain month, a certain day, Saturday, morning

　　"The genes of night herons are really amazing."

　　This morning, when Ye Lu and the detective team of the young Death Crab continued to visit, Lu Xiang and Song Lan found a shady place and sat down.

　　Genetic changes will bring about changes in habits. In theory, night herons can easily integrate into the life circle of almost all mutant creatures.

　　"Yes."

　　Song Lan looked at Ye Heron's bouncing back. His worries about Ye Heron were always the opposite of those of other children. Maybe the deep mountains and old forests are more suitable places for Ye Heron to live.

　　"I suddenly remembered something."

　　"Ok?"

　　"Remember the sleep-in competition you held before? You lost to Yelu."

　　"That's what happened."

　　"Where did she learn the gene to sleep late? It seems that there are not many people around us who have time to sleep late except you."

　　Not everyone can skip work every day like Song Lan.

　　"I think that different children's education should focus on different things. For a child like Ye Lu, we should let her adapt to a leisurely and undisciplined life..."

　　"I know."

　　Lu Xiang smiled, "But what I want to ask is, how did she extract your genes?"
