The Death List Novel - Chapter 349
Chapter 349 End
“Are you saying that Coolapika would trade the lives of those two women for Cullo’s?” Rand asked doubtfully.
“It’s not a life-changing idea. It’s very difficult to achieve. The other brigade members, including the two women, won’t let Cullo do this. Perhaps it’s just restricting Cullo’s freedom and forcing him to leave the brigade!”
Kieran muttered to himself, “Coolapika has a trial chain that allows him to make a strictly restricted oath. If he breaks the oath, the other party will die from a broken heart. As for what kind of restriction he will make, there will be many similar expressions.”
“This is a good idea!” Rand rubbed his chin and nodded. Then, he smiled and asked, “However, your mission will be very difficult to continue!”
“It doesn’t matter. I’ve already enjoyed this world of hunters, and after today, I will lose the assistance of the enemy clan and the gangs. If we don’t have enough time and manpower, it will be very difficult to design other plans!” Qin Lun waved his hand carelessly.
“Haha, Coolapika asks you, do you still remember the people you killed? Do you have an answer to that question?” Rand was silent for a moment before he suddenly looked at Qin Lun and asked mockingly.
“Only a portion, some of them don’t remember much!” Qin Lun rubbed his nose and smiled helplessly, “Before Joey and I separated, we had a hard time separating from each other for a few years. I can’t tell the difference between reality and illusion. I still don’t know if the things we killed during that time are real or not!”
“Something?” Rand was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled bitterly. He understood what Qin Lun meant. That was to say, the hallucinations that appeared in the mind of the “Decomposer” were sometimes not humans. Perhaps monsters and evil spirits had everything.
“These few of us should have some things that are hard to forget, right?” Qin Lun muttered to himself as his gaze blurred.
Shepherd Hill, who runs a church in the darkness on the lower floor of the federal city, was supposed to be an amiable true priest. Although he didn’t know why he had embarked on the path of a murderous demon, the internal cause would only be the corruption and oppression of the ruling classes in the upper echelons of the city.
Disciple Hansen needless to say, his parents were killed by raiders, he became a boy mercenary from childhood, and then became a killer. From a child like a piece of paper to a mercenary and killer whose heart was as hard as stone, their hearts were insignificant to outsiders.
Grant, the clown, was the same. Because of his ugly appearance, he was abandoned by his relatives and everyone else. From childhood, he had suffered from all sorts of blank eyes and tasted all sorts of warmth and coldness. He felt inferior and self-pity in his heart, but he was extremely eager to become beautiful. Only then did he slowly transform into the shameless murderer “clown”.
However, the path of the murderers couldn’t be turned back. When killing people became a habit, they would naturally treat themselves as creatures at the top of the food chain. The pursuit of fame and fortune and enjoyment was nothing to them, would tigers appreciate the pursuit of ants?
Obviously not! Without the dream of a normal person, they could only obtain their survival value and sense of existence from the slaughter!
“I’ve read about the four of you in the newspapers!” Rand sighed and suddenly said in silence, “However, you don’t understand what happened to me. Perhaps it would be fairer for you to say it out loud. Actually, I’m not mentally ill. The antisocial personality disorder is just an official cover-up!”
Rand began to introduce himself in a heavy tone. He was originally a respected fire chief in Los Angeles City and had an enviably happy family. Late one night, the fire brigade received a fire alarm and a nightclub in Los Angeles City caught fire.
Originally, this was just an ordinary mission, but strangely, the mayor of Los Angeles actually called him personally and privately asked him to obey the orders of a stranger.
The stranger was Terry Brano, the owner of the nightclub and a famous mafia boss. Terry asked Rand to ignore the fire spreading around the nightclub and first rescue the vault in the nightclub.
At that time, the nightclub had already been burned into a bonfire. If Terry’s arrangement was followed, not only would the fire spread, but it would also cause heavy casualties among the firefighters.
Rand did not hesitate to reject Terry and the mayor, taking first steps to save the people around him, but the mafia boss’s small vault was devoured by the fire.
Afterwards, the city of Los Angeles, which had colluded with Terry, grew angry and slandered Rand in the media for intentionally watching the fire spread out of selfishness, causing heavy human and property losses. Rand knew that this was an inevitable result, so he didn’t argue any further and only wanted to have a clear conscience.
However, to his surprise, the people who had been helped in the fire listened to the rumors and took him to court. Moreover, someone in the fire brigade actually testified in court and sold him for the sake of his position.
Rand was thrown into prison, and what was even more tragic was that Terry, in retaliation for him, had set fire to his house and his wife and daughter on the spot in the second year of his imprisonment.
There was no need to say anything else. The mad Rand immediately escaped from prison when he heard the news. Over the next few years, he sent the former Los Angeles mayor, Terry’s entire Mafia family, including the unidentified people who had falsely accused him, and traitors to the fire department, to Fire Heaven to console his wife and daughter.
Los Angeles officials described him as a psychopath with an antisocial personality disorder to cover up the scandal. Rand was surprised to discover that he actually possessed a strange ability to control the fire to a certain extent during the numerous arson and bomb incidents.
“In that case, when you were in the Earth Federation, you were an Adept!” Qin Lun looked at Rand in surprise, “Then you …”
“After becoming an apostle, this ability was preserved and became my talent!” Rand nodded, “This is also the main reason why I advanced so quickly!”
“Then you are different from us. You are not a murderer!” Qin Lun’s eyes lit up as he smiled and comforted.
“No, arson and bombs will always implicate many innocent people. My hands are also bloody!” Rand smiled bitterly as he looked at his hands. “Moreover, after possessing that ability, I often have the desire to set fire to myself. I can’t control myself, so I’m already on the path of no return for a murderer!”
“Rand, Hill and I are unable to merge into a normal apostle guild. We might form our own guild in the future, you” Qin Lun muttered.
“We’ll talk about this later!” The middle-aged man in front of him smiled heartily. It seemed that after he revealed his secret, he felt much more relaxed.
Rand took out a small paper bag from his storage space and threw it to Qin Lun. “This is what you asked for. I’ll leave it to you now!”
“Scarlet Eye?” Qin Lun opened the paper bag and quickly raised his eyebrows in surprise, “Eh, is this still a world treasure?”
Qin Lun asked Rand to bring the Scarlet Eye out of the brigade’s treasury. It was just a temporary thought. He originally wanted to give it back to Coolapika to rope in the youth, but he didn’t expect such a result.
“Hehe, many of the items in the auction are world treasures. Perhaps the most precious ones are my quest item, the Ahura Mazda bronze statue, and the scarlet eye in your hand. However, time was limited at that time, so I could only take a few of them away. What a pity!” Lan De smacked his lips, as if he was still trying to do something.
Qin Lun looked at Rand meaningfully, but he wasn’t very envious. Fireworks went deep into the ruined city and took a big risk. This was someone else’s hard work. It would be nice to return the Scarlet Eye to him.
“Is there anything special about the Ahura Mazda bronze statue?” Qin Lun’s eyes lit up as he asked indifferently.
“It’s related to my spiritual energy system!” Rand hesitated for a moment before saying, “This thing is a religious statue that worships flames! Since I became a hunter, I haven’t developed a spiritual power system. The Laws contained in this thing allow me to absorb and convert incomplete flame spiritual energy, possessing the spiritual effects of the Transformation Element, the Manipulation Element, and the Emission Element.”
“Qin Lun, we still have about half a month left. What do you plan to do after the Yorkson City incident ends?” Rand asked solemnly.
“When the results from Coolapika come out, I’ll be back!” Qin Lun said indifferently, “I enjoyed this experience very much. There is nothing worth continuing! Besides, the hatred of the Phantom Brigade is all on me. Even if the structure falls apart, there will probably be a group of people following me. If they stay behind, it will be very dangerous!”
“En!” Rand nodded. He would not stop for the time being. “I might continue to participate in the auction. After obtaining the Ahura Mazda bronze statue, I received a side mission from the Island of Greed!”
“Oh?” Qin Lun raised his eyebrows. He had obtained this information in his communication with Little Jie and Qi Yi that night, but he didn’t expect that this was also a plot branch. However, his decision would not change. After the climax of the battle with the brigade, he was a little distracted by other matters, so it was inevitable that he would return.
…
After hiding for a day, Qin Lun received the final battle result between the hunters and the Phantom Brigade.
“Coolapika really succeeded!” Qin Lun opened the window and smiled as he looked at the white clouds in the sky.
Even Qin Lun did not understand why he wished Cola Pica success. Perhaps at the same time that he contaminated Cola Pica, the teenager was also affecting him in some way.
Xiao Di returned to the brigade safely. Cullo was sealed by the chain of judgment and could no longer meet with the other brigade members. He began to search for the Mind Severing Master.
Perhaps this beauty had realized what the brigade was doing, harming many innocent people and bringing irreparable regrets to her companions.
Thus, she used her memory bomb to leave some of the brigade members with information about Qin Lun and Cola Pica, as well as her own reflection on the Yorkson City incident.
Perhaps after sensing Qin Lun’s cruelty and cunning, this brigade beauty had already made the decision to spread the information to her companions at all costs. She herself was killed by the chain of trial for breaking her oath with Kulapika.
Paikonoda’s death deeply touched all the members of the brigade. Qin Lun’s judgment was correct, even if the Phantom Brigade was no longer the same brigade as before, even if they lost their leader, even if they no longer pursued Coolapika. The young man was still the only murderer that they could not let go of, and they began to pursue him.
…
“The puppets I control have already begun to pay attention to the intel of the Dark Beasts and the gangs. As long as that person appears again, we will receive the news!” A hoarse voice sounded from behind the brigade members. A man covered in stitches appeared at the church entrance with a cell phone in his hand. A sunny smile appeared on his ugly face.
