Chapter 280 The Third Demon

What? The devil's breath?

For a moment, Du Shiyue obviously didn't understand what Jiang was talking about.

Does it mean that his grandfather Jiang Tao looks like a devil? Is this an adjective? Or is it another way of saying it?

Wait, demon? Could it be that Jiang Zheng is referring to the devil in the "Palace of Souls"?
Du Shiyue was talented and intelligent after all, and she quickly thought of who the "devil" in Jiang Zheng's mouth was.

So she ignored the pain on her arm from being slapped, leaned over and asked softly:

"The devil you are talking about refers to the kind of devil like Black Jack and Kyubey? The guardian devil in the palace?"

"Yes." Jiang Zheng nodded and said in an excited tone:

"I always felt that there was a strange aura about those demons, especially after being able to see through other people's minds."

"Mind phase? What did it come from?"

Although I don’t know if this alien space really exists, or if it is a setting woven by the system in order to create these demons.

If Qiubi's aura is as strong as a ten thousand-foot tall building, then Jiang Tao's aura is at most a 100-meter peak.

Originally, Jiang Zheng thought it was because Jiang Tao's mood was very stable, reaching the level of neither joy nor sorrow, and did not reveal any emotional changes.

"According to your opinion, Mr. Jiang has had contact with the devil in the past period of time? How did this happen? Can the devil appear in the outside world?"

Not to mention the "Demon of Love" who has more powerful abilities. It seems to be able to control human emotions and cause chaos in the world with just a little effort.

"The heart shape is... the special ability I got after clearing the first hall."

"If Kyubey's aura feels brown, then the old liar's aura feels like other colors, such as blue. Let's describe it this way."

"The demon related to that old liar should not be Kyubey, but other demons. We have more than one enemy."

"What does this mean? Don't you think you can't?"

"Since even other palace creatures can appear in the outside world, the devil may not have a way to come out. Haven't we all seen the God of Death before?"

"You won't use it on us casually, which means it has been used on us, right?"

"If I'm not mistaken, this weird aura should come from the power of the devil. It is very similar to Kyubey's, but the intensity is not at the same level."

For example, it can be designed to make a bet between the American and Maozi's president. If the bet loses, the nuclear bomb launcher will be pressed. Just thinking about it makes people feel numb.

After understanding this, Du Shiyue couldn't help but look a little livid, and at the same time she felt a little dizzy. She had no choice but to lean on Jiang Zheng's shoulder and sigh:
"Then if your grandfather is indeed related to Kyubey, shouldn't we speed up the pace of the palace raid and get rid of Kyubey as soon as possible?"

These demons exist attached to the palace, and judging from their words, these guys were in a different space called "Hell" before.

".Sorry, sometimes I really can't bear it."

Even the ice maid, the god of death and the pig-headed knight who have no self-awareness are enough to make humans drink a pot when they come to the real world.

But obviously, this ability has no effect on demons. Jiang Zheng cannot see through Kyubey's mind and does not know whether what it says is true or false.

In fact, it's not just the God of Death. The cognitive creatures Jiang Zheng has seen in the real world so far include the Ice Maid, the God of Death, and the Pig-Headed Knight.

However, the demons in the hall are obviously different from the ice maid, the god of death, and the pig-headed knight. They are living creatures with self-awareness.

Only this kind of cognitive creature would come to the real world. There should be no problem with the logic of hunting down Jiang Zheng, the owner of the system.

"What are you thinking about? I don't do anything blindly when I have nothing to do, let alone use it on you casually."

When hearing this, Du Shiyue couldn't help but take a deep breath, frowned and said:

But in short, demons are fundamentally different from other cognitive creatures, that is, they can think, design, and even modify the trial challenges arranged by the system, etc.

"Huh, forget it." Du Shiyue also knew that now was not the time to dwell on such a trivial matter, so she continued to ask:
"You just said that telepathic vision can see a strange aura on demons, the same as the one on your grandfather?"

From this perspective, demons are Jiang Zheng's biggest enemies, but he never thought that these enemies could come to the real world.

If it were a "gambling demon" like Black Jack, who is regarded as a bastard among demons, it might even lead to the destruction of human civilization.

"It's probably what you think." Jiang Zheng patted Du Shiyue's little head and said with a smile:

After explaining her "psychic vision" to Du Shiyue, the corners of her mouth twitched and she raised her eyebrows:
"So, you can actually see through our psychology all the time and know our attitude very clearly?"

"Indeed, how should we describe that smell? It is obviously different from ordinary humans. It has a sticky feeling, which makes people very uncomfortable."

It felt like there was a fog covering Kyubey's body. The fog covered the fog of his mind, directly blocking Jiang Zheng's vision.

And only when Jiang Zheng has not gone to the palace for too long, or has escaped punishment in the palace.

"Huh? Subtle difference?"

"No, I don't feel that the old liar has something to do with Kyubey. Thinking about it carefully, the feeling on him is subtly different from Kyubey."

He could see through. Although he could see through the flow of Jiang Tao's mind, the flow of Jiang Tao's mind was extremely smooth, with almost no fluctuations.

The last time Jiang Zheng saw the "Devil of Love" Kyubey, he tried to use "psychic vision" on it.

And just now, a very similar situation happened when Jiang Zheng used "psychic vision" to observe Jiang Tao.

However, these cognitive creatures obviously do not have their own consciousness and are NPC enemies arranged by the system to hinder them in the hall.

However, even if the intensity is not at the same level, Jiang Zheng is sure that the two scents give people the same feeling.

But judging from the current situation, he seems to be filled with the same kind of fog or a strange aura as Kyubey.

Imagine that a demon with some kind of powerful power and the ability to think independently appears in the real world. How terrifying this is.

In fact, ever since the "Demon of Gambling" and the "Demon of Love" appeared, Jiang Zheng knew that there were more than just one or two demons lurking in the palace.

There is a devil in every palace. In other words, there is a devil lurking in the heart of every palace owner.

But under normal circumstances, the demon should be lurking in the cognitive world in the human mind, and should not be able to interfere with reality.

But judging from Jiang Tao's physical fitness, which is so durable that it is hard to imagine that he is a sixty-year-old man, and the aura of devil permeating his body.

It seems that at least one demon has somehow escaped from the shackles of the Soul Palace and extended its claws into the real world. "Maybe that demon has turned into a human form and has been causing trouble in the real world for a long time, but no one knows his identity."

"What? You have been making trouble in the real world for a long time? How is it possible? Where in the world is...? Wait, are you talking about? Pluto?"

Originally, Du Shiyue subconsciously wanted to say, "Where in the world are there such outrageous people?"

But in the middle of speaking, she suddenly remembered the mysterious organization that everyone had just come into contact with not long ago, "Pluto."

According to the information Xia Linlin searched from the dark web, he is the leader of the organization "Pluto".

The man called "Pluto" seems to have a god-like status in the organization.

It is said that he has absolute talent and can master any knowledge or technology on the spot at a glance.

It is said that he has absolute intelligence, and even major problems that have troubled him for thousands of years will be easily solved in front of him.

It is said that he has absolute leadership, and no matter how unruly he is, he will willingly surrender to him.

All those who have met Hades agree that he is anything but human, but a god who can lead humanity to a new world in the next dimension.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zheng raised his head and looked at the crystal chandelier on the gorgeous ceiling of Shen's living room, and murmured:
"Judging from various myths and stories, gods and demons are just two sides of the same coin. If there is a demon behind the organization, then many things seem to be logical."

In fact, Jiang Zheng had always had a question in the past, and that was why such an outrageous organization as "Pluto" existed in the world.

Obviously there is no supernatural power in this world, but that organization feels like it comes from some fantasy plane from top to bottom, giving people an extremely unreal feeling.

Especially that Pluto, who was so fake that a group of people worshiped him as a god, as if he could rule the world at any time. It was too exaggerated.

But if the true identity of Pluto is a demon smuggled out from the palace of the soul, then everything will make sense.

As a demon, he is indeed comparable to gods, and he does have the ability to rule humans. These descriptions are absolutely not false.

The reason why he didn't do it was not because he couldn't do it, but because he found it boring. He was just playing a game.

Whether they are "Gambling Demons" or "Love Demons", they are not obsessed with simply destroying humans, but rather like to play with humans.

If it is in the soul palace, the devil can only play with the system owners and companions sent in by the system, and it can only play with a few people.

But once you leave the spiritual palace, there are billions of humans in the real world for the devil to play with. It is simply a giant amusement park that the devil dreams of.

Of course, Jiang Zheng doesn't dare to vouch for what the other party thinks and whether all this is true.

The only thing he knows now is that his identity as the "system holder" should have been exposed.

After all, theoretically speaking, various technologies and weapons in the real world pose no threat to demons.

Therefore, only the holders of the system in this world can defeat and kill them. That is, only Jiang Zheng can do this.

In other words, Jiang Zheng is the only human being in the world who can kill that demon, and Pluto's only natural enemy.

This time Jiang Tao returned to Jiangcheng so unexpectedly, and asked Jiang Zheng to meet someone with him so suddenly.

The person behind this was probably the smuggled out demon, or the boss of "Pluto" who wanted to meet Jiang Zheng.

If you think about it carefully, he has three purposes for inviting this only natural enemy to come for a meeting:
The first is to make peace with Jiang Zheng, saying that he has no intention of annihilating mankind, and asking him not to disturb him in the future.

The second is to threaten Jiang Zheng, saying that he has the ability to kill you and all your relatives at any time, so that he will succumb to his will.

The third method is the simplest. Just arrange three hundred swordsmen and axemen at the meeting venue. As Pluto throws the cup as a sign, they will swarm him and hack him to death with swords.

Of course, "three hundred swordsmen" is just a joking description. If the other party is serious, it is normal to drop a nuclear bomb for Jiang Zheng alone.

At the same time, it was precisely because Jiang Tao knew how powerful the people behind the scenes were that he said that Jiang Zheng would follow him sooner or later.

If you don’t want to see that person today, you will want to see it tomorrow. If you don’t want to see that person tomorrow, you will want to see it later.

What this sentence contains is actually Jiang Tao's deep fear of the people behind the scenes.

He knew that Jiang Zheng could not disobey the other party, and no one in the world could disobey the other party.

It can make Jiang Tao, the old Jianghu who is not afraid of anything, be so afraid.

Presumably, he must have met Pluto himself and knew that the other party was not an opponent that humans could handle.

Has Grandpa seen Pluto? No, Pluto should have taken the initiative to come to him because of my matter?
Logically speaking, "Pluto" has members all over the world, but that guy chose my grandfather to be the guide.

It seems that he looks more and more like a devil. He likes to play with human beings. Haha, it's really interesting.

After thinking about all this clearly, Jiang Zheng first took a deep breath, and then the corner of his mouth couldn't help but raise a pleasant smile.

When she saw his smile, Du Shiyue, who was almost breaking into a cold sweat, couldn't help asking: "Jiang Zheng? What are you laughing at?"

"Haha, I laugh at Jiang Tao's lack of plans, Pluto's Shao Zhi?"

".Stop playing, you are still making fun of me at this time."

"How can I make you relax without making fun of me?"

As Jiang Zheng spoke, he hugged Du Shiyue into his arms, patted her back and comforted her:
"Don't worry, no matter what kind of powerful enemy we face, we are strong enough to fight them. Believe in me and believe in yourself, okay?"

When being hugged by Jiang Zheng, Du Shiyue felt warm all over her body, and all the worries and worries she had just disappeared quickly.

However, just when she was about to hug him back intimately, she saw two figures walking out of the corridor behind the living room.

The figure walking in front was Shen Xiao. He was stunned when he saw the two people hugging each other.

Then he immediately wanted to cover the eyes of the person next to him. Unfortunately, it was too late.

"Ginger! Zheng! What are you doing in my living room!"

Suddenly, Shen Tian, ​​who had just been released from the cabinet in the study by Shen Xiao, glared at Jiang Zheng and Du Shiyue and let out a thunderous roar.

Looking at his appearance, it seemed as if he wanted to chop his future son-in-law into minced meat on the spot so that he could use it to make wontons tomorrow.
