Chapter 48

When it came to the melee stage in the rain, the real-time comments were so dense that it was hard to read, and Jiang Zhulang just skipped through them.

When Cross killed the last enemy cleanly and swiftly, the comments were filled with exclamations of "Ahhh!":

[So handsome, so handsome, so handsome!!]

[As expected of Cross, he has strong fighting ability]

[Whatever a beautiful lady does looks good, even the knifeman looks so elegant and beautiful prprpr]

[I really like it when the villain kills people elegantly with a smile on his face]

…

When the dying woman laughed sarcastically at the word "brother", the comments section said:

[…Brothers and sisters, I have a bad feeling…]

[Fuck, I too...]

【+1】

[It is known that this young lady is in cahoots with the man in black, and the man in black is in cahoots with that ugly blond brother, so...]

[What are you doing with the ellipsis above? Let me explain!! So, the younger brother is the master of the little sister and the man in black!! ]

[There is no need to say what everyone already knows. After watching the later part of the story, I feel that the amount of information is huge.]

[Wok, it turns out that the news of the herbs on this island was not spread by Cross? ? I always thought it was him who spread it, and I thought he was weird, making things difficult for himself.]

[Good fellow, judging from the way Lanno talks to Cross, could it be that the younger brother is the boss of the organization behind the scenes? ? For some reason, he wants to kill Cross, perhaps because of a family power struggle? Kill the more powerful brother and become the only heir? ? ]

[It’s possible! ! ]

[Yes, this makes sense. Cross didn't tell anyone else, but he revealed every action to his family or brother. So he ordered his men to kill his brother, who he thought was weak and needed treatment, after he got the herbs. If he died, at least the things were taken back. If he didn't die, he could still suffer. Maybe when he was older, he would die from internal injuries or old injuries.]

[To be honest, based on this situation, Cross probably won't live to be old. Even if he's a warlock and has potions, if he gets hurt too much and doesn't get treated in time, it will have an impact on his body, right?]

[Ah... he really would rather believe that there was a deformed person eavesdropping than suspect his own family. But his family stabbed him in the back. They might even hold the herbs he had worked so hard to find and laugh at him for being a fool. I feel so sad when I think about it QAQ]

[Oh no, you came to this conclusion just because of what Lannuo said? ? Lannuo was just asking a normal question, right? And seeing how he looked disgusted with Cross, maybe he did it on purpose? ? Maybe Lannuo actually told Cross about the herb and then leaked it himself in order to create resistance for him. And because he saw someone who looked a bit like Cross in the underground palace, he deliberately misled people and made them think that it was his family who did it.]

[The person above... you are really talking nonsense. You have filled in all the plots that are not in the comics.]

[Yeah, I'm really impressed. What's Lan Nuo trying to achieve by doing this? And he's going to the island himself. Why is he telling others to make things difficult for himself? ? ]

[No, the more I think about it, the more I think that's the case. When Lanno revealed the news, he hadn't thought about going to the island, so when Martin told him the news and invited him to go, he was so surprised, but he didn't want to ruin his image as a potion researcher, so he had to agree to go.]

[As for the fact that it is not in the comics, comics will not depict every action of the characters in detail. Maybe the random code guy is planning to do a reversal in the end, when we all think that it was the younger brother who did it, and then put up the scene of leaking the information? If he can tell Cross this information, there is no reason why he can't tell others this information. Anyway, I don't believe that the mastermind behind it was so simply and crudely exposed.]

…

Jiang Zhulang did not comment on the debate in the comments and continued to flip through the pages.

When the plot reaches the part where Cross recalls how he hurt his brother when he first gained power, the comments say:

[Hahahaha this is a very sad thing, why do I want to laugh so much? Can someone tag the big brother who swore that Lan Nuo was the real murderer?]

[I laughed my ass off. After seeing this, I went back and suddenly felt embarrassed for my brother hhhh]

[Brother: My extroversion once resulted in a lifetime of introversion]

[You guys are so mean, back to the beginning, you guys pushed my post to the top of the hot comments, the comments are all hahahaha 2333]

[So, the younger brother hated his elder brother so much and wanted him to die because he was hurt by his elder brother and his path to becoming a warlock was cut off with his own hands?]

[I put myself in his shoes, and it suddenly makes sense to me... Although my brother didn't mean it, in this environment where warlocks are supreme, I have no way of becoming a warlock, and my health is not good. My brother is better than me in both looks and abilities, so it's hard not to be a dark figure, right?]

[Yes, and he also said that it doesn’t matter if my brother is not a warlock. Since Cross himself has become a warlock, of course he can say such things, but my brother doesn’t think so. If he reveals this in front of my brother, won’t my brother hate him even more?]

[The elder brother said he was willing to raise him now, but what about ten or twenty years from now? By then, the younger brother will be kicked out of the house because he is not a sorcerer, and he will have nowhere to cry.]

[In fact, there is another possibility. Cross did not tell the truth. His guilty expression may be just one-sided. After all, we don't know the real situation. Judging from Cross's appearance and dress, his family must be a noble family. Maybe he was originally regarded as an heir, but his younger brother was born. In order to consolidate his position, he used the excuse of the Arcane Riot to harm his younger brother openly and cut off his possibility of becoming a warlock? Later, his younger brother found out about this, so he wished he would die.]

[Wow, this guess is reasonable]

[Hey guys, all the conspiracy theories in the comments are making my brain pop out. I'm actually a little uncomfortable with this. Wasn't it all about CP in the first part? ? ]

[Is it possible that not everyone likes to ship couples? ]

[Yeah, I've been wanting to say this for a long time. The male lead and the supporting characters always stumble over whatever they do. I really can't stand it...]

[I am dying of laughter. If Martin wasn’t so ugly, I would suspect that Martin and Lan Nuo would also be a couple. That’s enough.]

[Don't tell me, it really exists. Who would understand the shock I felt when I saw it for the first time? I was going to go blind.]

[Le, why do you care about the world and still have people care about CP? So far, there has been no female lead, and the male lead is surrounded by men, so what's wrong with it? 】

…

[Hey guys, why are you arguing about whether or not we can be a couple again? ? ]

【……】

Jiang Zhulang frowned in distress, but decided to listen to Brother Li and ignore it.

Hey, speaking of Brother Li, apart from that somewhat confusing message before, he hasn’t spoken to me for a long time?

Could it be that he was angry because he didn't lend him money?

But he is not that kind of person...

Putting the doubts behind him, Jiang Zhulang continued to read the comics.

The plot comes to the point where Cross is trying to sow discord and expose Roshia's disguise to arouse Lanno's suspicion towards him.

The young man had an unusually indifferent and expressionless look on his face, his eyes were completely cold, he grabbed Cross's neck forcefully and ruthlessly, forcing him to raise his head with a frown.

In Jiang Zhulang's eyes, the cool, handsome and domineering movements and expressions not only showed the strong side of "Lan Nuo's" character, but also protected his best friend well and did not allow others to attack him at will.

But in the eyes of readers, they are divided into two camps, and neither camp gets the point he wants to show.

One school is:

[Ahhhh, Lanno is so domineering in protecting her husband, so handsome!! It feels like from the beginning of the comic to now, Lanno has never been so angry, even after Cross slit his throat, he was not so angry.]

【I said, broccoli szd】

[Perhaps in the eyes of Ranmajun, this is a touching brotherhood, but in reality...]

[(狗头)(狗头)Actually it’s a brotherhood♂]

[Tsk tsk tsk, you never thought of that, Cross, I know about it~ Not only that, but he was the one who helped Roshia disguise herself. Hey, I just want to ask you if you are angry or not.]

[Hahahaha, your attempt to sow discord failed, you must be dumbfounded (funny jpg)]

[I really envy this kind of relationship. He has seen all of his shortcomings, but he always tolerates them and does not allow others to attack him with them.]

[“Do you think he doesn’t know?” This is truly a treasure from heaven!! Roshia took off his disguise and stood beside Lanno openly, without showing off, but with such pride.]

[“Lan Nuo said that no matter what, he would choose me” QAQ]

…

The other group is:

[(Heartbroken)(Heartbroken)(Crying)(Falling to the ground crying) Family, Luo Lan really can’t take it anymore. Woo woo woo, Lanno actually told Cross what qualifications he has. You can imagine how heartbroken Cross is.]

[QAQ Is this the end of the couple I support? I don’t want this kind of thing to happen.]

[My heart is broken. I don’t want to talk anymore orz]

[(Cat waving jpg) Originally, the Luolan CP was forced, isn't it just be, what does it matter hahaha (crying) (crying)]

…

[No, did no one notice that Lanno the cat secretly threw a little spider into Cross's pocket? I feel like there will be more plots related to him later.]

[It should be to find out whether his family leaked the news and sent people to hunt down his murderer? I feel that Lanno’s expression was speechless when he heard Cross say that it would definitely not be his family. Hahahaha, how can this not be called love (laugh)]

[Great, does that mean the next episode will reveal Cross's life and family background? Then we'll know if it was his family who did it.]

[I think so. But I wonder if Spider-Man can hold on until Cross returns home? The distance is so far and the time is so long. And he activates it by dripping blood. What if the blood dries up before he gets home? Then...? ]

[? Help, this is such a unique angle ww]

…

After reading some comments, Jiang Zhulang exited the forum and started a game since it was not too late.

He didn't see a post that was suddenly pushed to the top of the homepage, and the discussion became more and more heated, with the number of reposts increasing.

Title: [Rational discussion, how likely is it that comics with such similar styles and almost identical worldviews are written by the same author?]
