Chapter 267 Blackmail

"..."

Li understood that this should be what the Eighth Herrscher left for him. After all, apart from Aponya, only he could "see" its existence.

This may be a trap, but Li has to jump because the bell is in the opponent's hand.

Picking up the group of thoughts, he peeled it out of the corpse's brain, and without hesitation, pressed it directly on his forehead, allowing it to enter his brain.

[You finally discovered it. I thought I would have to wait a long time to communicate with you like this. 】

The next moment he received that mass of thoughts, the annoying voice of the Eighth Herrscher rang in his mind.

"Where is she?"

Too lazy to talk nonsense with him, Li asked coldly.

[She, she is a guest here now~ Come, have a word with your brother~]

"Brother Li, I'm fine, don't worry about me."

Then the sound of the bell, which was obviously being controlled, came from the other side.

"..."

Li didn't say anything, but made a crunching sound with her fists, which seemed to be heard by the Eighth Herrscher.

[Sure enough, this is another human being you care about very much~ It seems that I got it right. 】

"Let her go, what are the conditions... you name it."

【Very interesting. 】

The tone of the Eighth Herrscher sounded as if everything was under control.

[Remove the mental defense in your mind, and then come to the place I designated by yourself. Don't call anyone. 】

"..."

Take off the [Commandments]... It seems that the Eighth Herrscher still wants to control himself.

[Oh, by the way, don’t play tricks, traitor. You don’t know how many informants I have left among humans. Although most of them were cleared by that annoying guy, I want to clear them all... Haha, there are too many people, even if Is it because she can't do it in a short time? 】

"But [the commandment] can only be lifted by the so-called annoying guy you call it."

The implication of Li's words is that it is impossible to follow the instructions of the Eighth Herrscher without anyone noticing. At least Aponia will definitely ask her what the purpose of lifting the [Commandment] is.

[You can’t deceive me with your words, traitor. For you, taking out the "commandments" is as easy as eating and drinking, right? After all, unlike my methods, you are familiar with this concept. 】

"..."

It's so difficult... The Eighth Herrscher knows almost everything about him. If he continues to mess around, he's afraid that he will really do something to Ling.

"Okay, I agree to your request."

【That’s right. 】

The Eighth Herrscher was very satisfied with this.

"Time and Place."

[The location is included in that mass of thoughts. As for the time, it is within twenty-four hours, because the other guy in my body also promised this little sister’s sister that he would send her back within one day. ~]

For Ling, a little human being, the Eighth Herrscher didn't care about her life or death. After all, he only needed to catch Li, and everything else didn't matter.

The communication between thoughts was interrupted. Li jumped downstairs and landed on the roof of a car, making a small hole in it.

This car was driven by a soldier. He looked at the damaged roof and then at Li, who had a gloomy look on his face. He dared not speak out in anger.

"Take me back to base."

What made him even more angry was that the culprit who smashed his car was shamelessly trying to get him to help him? Is this justified?

"hurry up."

"Okay, okay..."

After Li glanced at him lightly, the soldier still drove for him obediently. There was nothing he could do about it, just be patient~

……

Fourteen hours later, Li appeared at the location designated by the Eighth Herrscher, and as He said, he did not bring anyone with him, and he also took the initiative to get rid of several soldiers who were arranged by Mei to follow him. , now Li has indeed accepted the invitation of the Eighth Herrscher alone.

[Hmm~ Not bad, it seems that you did exactly what I said, and you didn’t do anything clever. 】

Qian's body appeared in front of Li out of thin air, with a satisfied smile on her face. Judging from her tone, the person controlling the body at this time should be the Eighth Herrscher. He who had been monitoring Li naturally knew that there was no one behind Li. anyone.

"..."

Li turned around and looked around. This was the most prosperous area in the city, with people coming and going. It didn't look like a suitable place to meet at all.

But the strange thing is that for Li and Qian, these two strange men and women who stood facing each other for a long time, no one even glanced at them.

Are they all being controlled...?

[You guessed it right, they do belong to me now. How about it? Are you surprised? But I want to tell you, not only in this city, but in all other cities, I have more or less planted some "seeds"~]

The Eighth Herrscher looked at Li jokingly and said leisurely.

[By the way, there’s another thing you haven’t forgotten, right? 】

"..."

Li didn't say anything, but just showed him the small ball in his hand. This was the [Commandment] that he took out of his mind.

[Throw it over. 】

Li threw it directly and asked: "...where is the bell?"

[She was sent back by me a long time ago~ Just when you came here, counting the time, she should have returned home to her sister by now. 】

Holding the small ball in his hand and observing it repeatedly, the Eighth Herrscher glanced at Li.

[How about it, do you regret it a little? Do you regret not turning back halfway? 】

"...No, I don't regret it, as long as you keep your word."

After hearing that Ling was sent back, Li was obviously relieved and shrugged helplessly, "And even if you regret it now, it's useless, right?"

[I won’t lie to you about such a trivial matter. 】

The Eighth Herrscher walked slowly in front of Li, grabbed his left hand and placed it where his Herrscher core was.

[Do you want my power? 】

Li grabbed the opponent's chest with such force that he felt like he was going to claw directly through the opponent's chest, but his movements were as if he was stuck in a quagmire, unable to move at all.

At some point, he had once again entered the dreamland woven by the Eighth Herrscher.

[Don’t worry, I will give it to you, but not now, at least until the power core of the previous apostle is sent over~]

As he spoke, the Eighth Herrscher waved his hand, and Li suddenly felt his body being pushed back by a strong force. After breaking through a certain barrier, he fell into a certain dark space, unable to see his fingers.

But then, a ray of candlelight lit up, illuminating Li's face and the cheek with a sweet smile that was facing him so close.

"Brother, we meet again~"
