Chapter 431
There are quite a few orcs that get out of control every year, but undead warriors are very rare. In fact, Qinghe has only heard about them in the Realm of Chaos and has never actually seen them.
However, the black coat he had just stripped from the young man looked like the legendary invisibility cloak of the undead warrior.
When Qinghe expressed his doubts, Di Youlin had already begun to explore the young man's body. Soon, Di Youlin found something unusual. He lifted up the young man's clothes and found a round, fist-sized dent on the young man's waist.
"It is indeed the Undead Warrior, Master. The Undead Warrior was created by the Lord of the Wanxiang Galaxy and will never be loaned out. It seems that they have already come out to deal with you." Qinghe saw the circular depression and his eyes were solemn.
"Wanxiang Galaxy is gone. I'm afraid the Star Council and the Star Academy have already taken action. I just don't know where they will ambush." Di Youlin also looked solemn.
"What's the story behind the Undead Warrior? Why is it called this name?" Ning Xuan took a few steps closer, wanting to observe it closely.
"Master, Butler Yan has secretly gone to track down the controller. Before the controller is found, he is still very dangerous. Please don't get close to him." Qinghe blocked Ning Xuan and prevented her from getting close to the undead warrior tied up by the forbidden spirit rope.
Di Youlin also looked around vigilantly.
"Since there is someone manipulating him secretly, it's better to give him an injection of anesthetic to prevent him from waking up in the middle of the process. Otherwise, if there is a unique connection or control method between them, wouldn't it alert the enemy?" Ning Xuan shook the syringe in her hand, which contained the powerful anesthetic she had prepared.
"Master, let me do it." Qinghe's eyes lit up and he said immediately. He had just been thinking about whether to throw another punch, but he was afraid that he would not be able to control the strength well.
Ning Xuan handed the injection to Qinghe, who injected the needle into the young man's neck and pushed all the anesthetic into his body.
"Knock, knock, knock", someone knocked on the door of the box. Ning Xuan recognized that it was Yan Fuzhen knocking on the door. She glanced at Qinghe, who nodded in understanding. He walked forward to open the door and let Yan Fuzhen in.
Yan Fuzhen saluted Ning Xuan and then spoke, "Master, all three exits of the auction house have been sealed. Lord Yu has dispatched two teams from the Supervisory Department, and they will be here soon. Lord Yu's instructions are that once they arrive, they will conduct a one-by-one search of everyone in the venue, citing theft of treasures from the auction house. No suspicious individuals will be spared."
"No, places like auction houses pay the most attention to privacy protection. If you do this, will our auction house still be able to do business in the future?" Ning Xuan immediately objected.
"If we don't do this, how can we find out the manipulator behind the scenes? Master, you can choose not to do the auction business, but the manipulator behind the scenes who dared to attack you must be found out." Yan Fuzhen frowned in disapproval.
"Don't we already know his origin? How can we find the manipulator in the simplest and most labor-saving way? We need to discuss this carefully. Where is Mingche now?" Ning Xuan asked.
"Lord Yu is already heading this way. He will be here in about ten minutes." Yan Fuzhen looked at the computer in his hand and reported to Ning Xuan.
"Has the identity of the assassin been confirmed? Which force sent him?" Yan Fuzhen turned his head and looked at the assassin lying on the ground and asked.
"Judging from the equipment he used, his appearance, and the features on his body, he should be an undead warrior. It was just a coincidence that we were able to capture him alive just now." Qinghe said.
Although Yan Fuzhen was of high rank, he had never heard of the undead warriors. His gaze was fixed on the dark red mark on the assassin's waist. It was a mark that resembled a brand, but not a brand. The lines intertwined like a living thing, with a faint metallic sheen. It resembled some ancient rune, or a heraldry left behind when flesh and machinery merged.
"How exactly did this come about?" he asked, his curiosity barely suppressed. "Based solely on this... can we conclude he's an Undead Warrior?"
Di Youlin and Qinghe were both silent. After a moment, Di Youlin noticed that Ning Xuan was also curious about this question, and a trace of sadness and sorrow appeared in his eyes. "I'm not completely sure, but this mark looks very similar to the oath spirit pattern. The oath spirit pattern is proof that the orcs voluntarily accepted transformation after losing control."
He paused, as if weighing how to proceed. "Everyone knows that orcs can easily lose control after reaching adulthood. Once out of control, they will completely degenerate into monsters that only care about killing. However, most orcs have high mental strength and strong combat capabilities. If they lose control, they will bring great harm to society. Therefore, if an orc shows signs of losing control, he will be killed. However, simply showing signs of losing control does not necessarily mean that he will lose control. As a result, many orcs who should not have been killed have been killed."
"Too many innocent orcs were killed. These orcs were originally the main force fighting on the front lines. Not long after, the research institute made a proposal. They said they were conducting an experiment to eliminate the alienated genes and needed test subjects. If the experiment was successful, the orcs with unstable genes could obtain stable genes. If it was unsuccessful, they would become humanoid weapons that could only execute simple commands and continue to serve the army."
"Some orcs on the verge of losing control volunteered to become test subjects, undergoing a series of taboo body modification experiments in exchange for a glimmer of hope for success."
"The official statement is very high-sounding. They say that even if the experiment fails, they can continue to play their last role for the country and the camp, turning uncontrollable disasters into controllable and powerful weapons, making the best use of them. It sounds great, doesn't it?" Qinghe looked into the distance with a hint of sarcasm and sadness.
Although the so-called experiment had been stopped long ago and he had not witnessed it with his own eyes, when he learned about this record, he only felt a chill to the bone.
