Chapter 20【】: Making up for the situation before it is too late
Lu Xun rushed to the third floor and entered the bedroom.

The old man with gray beard fell to the ground, his "tentacles" were all cut off, and there was a big bloody hole in his chest at the heart, and he would be killed with one hit.

"It's really you!"

Lu Xun gritted his teeth and couldn't help but want to rush up and give him a kick.

But everyone is dead, and there is no point in desecrating the body.

He wanted to ask why the old octopus came back?How did you come back?Come back so soon?
The planes have all flown away, and we won’t be able to reach the Elf Clan until tomorrow. Did he parachute and float back in the middle of the journey?

Old Octopus had no reason to return to Jinghai City.

Because both black and white are eyeing him, he has no other choice.

But he happened to come back, and he was so damn dead!

The corpse was placed in front of Lu Xun.

Everything that happens here is unreasonable, illogical, and devoid of any logic.

It burned out Lu Xun’s CPU!

It's outrageous!
"Whoo~"

Lu Xun took a deep breath to stop his chaotic thoughts.

He squatted down and inspected the old octopus's body, and his expression immediately became serious.

The old octopus's head was cut open and a large piece of its brain was missing.

Now things got serious.

Lu Xun suddenly realized that the murderer who killed the old octopus was not the combat robot just now.

After the other party killed and silenced him, why did he still cut off part of the old octopus's brain tissue?

the reason is simple.

It is to extract the memory of the old octopus during his lifetime.

Now that science and technology are advanced, the technology to extract memories from brain tissue has long been available.

According to what the masked man said, anyone who has anything to do with him will be driven out and killed.

When the other party takes the brain back and investigates it, Lu Xun's identity will be exposed and he will be hunted down!

"What happened? What went wrong?"

Lu Xun's hands and feet were cold, and his heart seemed to be tightly grasped by invisible hands, feeling suffocated.

He thought there was nothing wrong with his plan, but he never expected that things would develop to where they are now.

The behavioral logic of the old octopus has exceeded the scope of human understanding.

There is a road to heaven, but you don’t take it, but you want to come back and die?

Did you come back to trick me on purpose?

Lu Xun couldn't understand, but was shocked.

The first thing he thinks of now is to run away!

Take the whole family to leave Jinghaicheng.

But that was the last resort. My uncle's life depended on a bunch of machines to maintain his life. Breathing, pumping blood, excreting... they all depended on machines. He couldn't live without those machines.

It was also impossible to contact the airline to arrange a special patient cabin at short notice.

Choosing to run away means abandoning a family member.

'Calm down, don't rush yet. '

'Things may turn around...'

His heart was beating very fast, and he took several deep breaths before calming down.

He squatted down and stretched out his right hand to touch the body.

"Analysis!"

After more than ten seconds, Lu Xun opened his eyes, a joyful look on his face.

The old octopus had not died for more than 20 minutes.

After the murderer finished killing the people, he left the robot to take care of the funeral, while he took the brain tissue back first.

The other party is still on his way back. He hasn't gone far yet, and he still has a chance to get his brain back.

Even if the other party has returned to his lair, it will still take some time to extract the memory using instruments.

In theory, there is still a chance to turn things around.

It is not too late!
But the problem now is, Lu Xun doesn’t know who the murderer is?Where did it go?
In the vast sea of ​​people, where should he look?

In critical moments, Lu Xun's thinking became extremely sharp.

He quickly thought of a "person" - his deskmate Ur from the Necro clan.

Although it looks like a skeleton, Ur is proficient in more than 400 kinds of undead magic and is a famous genius boy among the undead tribe!
Otherwise, it would not have been possible for him to be sent to the People's Federation to study abroad.

Magic is something that goes against common sense.

Some of these magics can predict the future and reveal things about ghosts and gods.

Finding someone was too easy for Ur.Thinking of this, Lu Xun immediately raised his hand, preparing to contact Ur.

But he found that his wrist was empty, and then he realized that the strap of the communication device had been broken during the transformation just now, and it fell to the ground.

"I remember it was here..."

He turned around, looked at the pile of debris with lightning eyes, and walked over quickly.

……

Jinghai No. 4 Middle School, classroom of Class [-], Grade [-].

Rear window seat.

Ur was lying on the table boredly, with a vivid sad expression on his skull face, thinking about his homework.

Suddenly the communication device at his wrist vibrated.

It looked down and saw that it was Brother Lu calling!

Ur was pleasantly surprised and quickly answered the phone. Just as he was about to say hello, he was stunned by what the other party said——

"Da Gu, don't talk yet, listen to me. I'm in big trouble and I need you to use magic to help me find someone. I remember you told me about similar magic before, right?"

It was stunned for a moment, then raised its head very nervously and looked around.

Then he lowered his voice and asked with concern: "Brother Lu, what trouble have you encountered?"

"An acquaintance of mine was killed and I need to find the murderer or something will happen to me."

"Time is tight and I don't have time to elaborate. Is it convenient for you to come over? The sooner the better." Lu Xun said solemnly.

When Ur heard that it was a matter of life and death, he couldn't help but panic.

"I have the magic to find people, but even if I go there, I can't help you, Brother Lu."

It said: "We foreign students have signed an agreement with the People's Federation. We are not allowed to use magic while studying abroad. We can only defend ourselves appropriately unless we encounter life-threatening situations."

Lu Xun knew about this, Ur had told him about it before.

Foreign students all wear magic sensors, which look like a silver bracelet.

Once magic is used, it will sense it and automatically alarm.

If you take off the bracelet without permission, the police will be called.

At that time, Ur will not only be sent back to the Necrons, but he will also face very serious punishment after returning.

The cost is too much for it to bear.

But now its good friend is facing a life and death crisis.

Wu Er's eyes were filled with soul fire, and he was hesitating whether to violate the taboo for his brother.

But I heard Lu Xun say——

"You don't have to do it yourself. I can guide the fire attribute magic. You just need to teach me how to use magic. Isn't this hard for you?"

what?
Ur was shocked.

I can't understand why Lu Xun, as a human, can control magic elements?

But now is not the time to talk about that.

Now that he can use magic element himself, things become much simpler.

"I know a kind of ritual divination magic for finding murders. It's very simple. You only need to use the blood of the deceased to draw a ritual pattern, and with three spells, you can track the murderer. No additional casting materials are needed, and the magic element properties are also affected. There are no requirements.”

Ur said solemnly: "But there are two necessary conditions."

"1. The deceased died within three hours."

"2. The murderer must be someone the caster has seen before, otherwise it cannot be traced and located."

"In the end, the divination results will only show a momentary picture, which is not clear."

"What about Brother Lu? If it really doesn't work... I'll go over to your place."

……

in the bedroom.

After Lu Xun heard Wu'er's words, he couldn't help but frown.

This tracking magic is too low-level. Although beginners can easily master it, the effect is extremely poor and the limitations are also great.

Of the two preconditions, the former is easy to explain, but the latter is quite troublesome.

How to find out what the murderer looks like?

He subconsciously looked at the old octopus's body. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind, and he thought of a way.

...I also have the ability to read memories!

And I just got it, fresh and hot!

Hope arose in Lu Xun's heart, and he said "Wait a minute" to Ur, then he stretched out his finger to dip a little of the old octopus's blood, put it to his lips, licked it, and activated one of the three stunts——

"Hunt blood and soul!"
