"That's enough, old man. I've wanted to settle the score for a long time!"
He has always remembered the revenge of the engraving incident that year. Besides Wei Wu, the only one who could do this is this old guy. As the head of the group and one of the founders of the Security Bureau, Wei Wu's strength has probably reached the eighth level, and he cannot beat him.
And this old guy was already at level seven a long time ago. After so many years, everyone thought he had died in the dangerous spiritual world, but unexpectedly he is still alive, but his strength is still at level seven. We are at the same level, so let’s settle all the new and old grudges together!
"Back then, because we were the last remaining humans, I spared you all the lives. I simply carved a line of words on your face. If you return to the real world and refrain from killing, the words will naturally disappear. But now it seems... you're wearing another face. I'm sure you've done a lot of evil!"
"You still don't repent after all these years. You were a disaster back then. Let me see how much you've improved over the years!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the old man tapped the ground with his crutch. The next second... a vine broke out of the ground where the masked man was standing, wrapped around his ankle, and tightly bound one of his feet.
Countless extremely sharp barbs grew on the vines, all of which pierced into the skin, and blood flowed from the masked man's ankle.
…
The masked man sneered, "Old man, you were just lucky back then and reached the seventh level earlier than me. After all these years, you claim to be able to bind and kill a seventh-level alien spirit, and this is all you have left?"
After the masked man finished speaking, he struck the vines in front of him with his palm, and immediately the vines that were wrapped around him shattered and floated in the air.
However, the old man opposite still looked calm and composed.
Just as the masked man was moving, he felt a strange feeling. The next moment, sprouts grew out of his ankles, and then countless roots shot out from those tiny wounds, some of which penetrated into the ground and firmly fixed it.
The other part continues to spread upwards along the thigh!
Something even more terrifying happened. As the disease spread and covered the entire body, the flesh and blood began to turn into plants.
In just a few seconds, the masked man's entire thigh had completely changed.
After feeling the horror of the roots, the masked man's face darkened, and he broke his thigh with a slap without any hesitation.
He was secretly shocked in his heart. As expected of a seventh-level awakener who had been famous for a long time, his strange methods became more and more sophisticated.
It only took a short, tentative exchange for him to realize he couldn't hurt him.
The battles between seventh-level awakeners are often this simple. In order to protect each other's weaknesses, they usually don't fight endlessly.
…
Those who can be promoted to the seventh level are all the best among humans. They all understand one thing: the longer the time drags on, the easier it is for the weaknesses of both sides to be exposed.
Once exposed, it will be their death!
"Old thing, one day I will make a specimen of you!"
After making these harsh words, the masked man quickly left the scene and prepared to return to his hidden base to make further plans.
As long as my position is not exposed, they will never find me, and I have plenty of time to waste with them!
"Senior, he escaped!"
"I understand. Let him escape. We can't kill him for the time being." The old man with crutches shook his head and looked very open-minded.
There is a reason why the seventh level is called the Immortal Realm. Before finding the weakness, the battles between each other are controlled within a certain range.
"By the way, senior, Qiao Yuan might have been ambushed!" Bai Jin became a little uneasy.
"I saw the battle that night. It's not a big deal. The young man must have been delayed by something." said the old man with crutches.
…
On the other side, the tied-up Qiao Yuan finally found out where the masked man was hiding.
It turned out to be another rare and strange thing!
A special space!
Including the custom-made equipment on Gawain, this laboratory is truly rich.
Along the way, Qiao Yuan roughly understood something. Gao Wen must have been influenced by the other party in some way.
The reason why it is said to be influence rather than control is mainly because it is observed through some details.
Gawain's previous habits have not changed, and his previous memories are still very clear. He also knows that he saved him twice, once when the strange ghost in the apartment was killed, and the other time when his mother was tortured by people from the club, and he found out the truth for him.
He even remembered how the laboratory kidnapped him and what they did to him.
He knew everything, but due to the influence of some force, he regarded the masked man as his mother.
He has always been filial and always obeys his mother's words, but he also retains his own thinking ability.
"Don't you hate the laboratory for the experiments they did on you?" The tied-up Qiao Yuan fell to the ground and asked tentatively.
"Qiao Yuan, I advise you not to waste your time on this mere scheme to sow discord. Do you think I'm easy to fool?"
Gao Wen said disdainfully, while picking up the broom and starting to sweep the floor. This was his daily habit to clean the house.
"Tell me what you want. I'm a prisoner too, and you have my knife. You can laugh at me and humiliate me as much as you want. Just think about it...would your mother be proud of you if she saw this?"
Gao Wen stopped, put down the broom, took out some special ropes from the cabinet again, and tied Qiao Yuan up a few more times.
"My mother said that this is all for my own good!" Gao Wen finally felt relieved after making sure that Qiao Yuan couldn't break free.
"Although you saved me before, you made my mother very unhappy. I can't save you either. Just wait to die!"
…
"Gao Wen, we're from the same hometown. Can you give me another chance? Your mother and I just met not long ago, and our previous fight was just a misunderstanding... So I think we can definitely become friends. What do you think?"
