Chapter 1227: Riddlers are a Good Way to Drag Time

"You?!!!"

"Your anomalous object is really easy to use."

Amidst Director Scorpio's shocked expression, Li Ang, who was drunk and hazy, smiled and provoked:

"The machine intelligence core of the Kelo Kingdom has done very tight waterproofing, with over thirty mutually separated waterproof zones. It's almost impossible to destroy them all at once, so I originally thought that it would be good to destroy half of them.

But your 【Whale Shark Puppet】 is truly easy to use. I just drove it to crash once at full speed, and all the waterproof zones were cracked, and not a single one was left."

"..."

Director Scorpio's face sank upon hearing this, and he questioned with a gloomy look:

"So this is your plan... You were deliberately caught by me? The purpose was to make me lower my guard? And then seize control of the Whale Shark Puppet?"

"..."

After hearing Director Scorpio's words, the smile at the corner of Li Ang's mouth couldn't help but stiffen, and he fell silent.

The plan was indeed this plan, but not winning was also indeed not winning...

Not to mention anything else, his Li Ang value was just piled up hard. His actual reaction speed and movement speed were still at the level of 12 Li Ang value. No matter how strong the destructive power of the 【Cutting Silver Dagger】 was, it was useless if it couldn't hit anyone.

"Fine, I underestimated you this time."

Seeming to interpret Li Ang's silence as contempt, facing Li Ang who disdained to answer his question, Director Scorpio's face turned slightly red, and then he sneered with anger in his eyes:

"I admit that your calculation was indeed excellent and successfully caught me off guard, but the gap in strength between you and me cannot be smoothed out by wisdom.

Although you successfully destroyed Atifi's core, the price is that you fell into my hands. Once the duration of the immortal body ends, you will be killed by me immediately! The one who loses in the end is still you!"

"..."

After listening to Director Scorpio's words, Li Ang couldn't help but raise his head to look at him, and then showed a somewhat sympathetic expression.

It seems that Atifi's soul encoding technology does indeed affect people's IQ...

Trading my life for Atifi's core is very losing, I can't know this? So why didn't you think about why I had to destroy Atifi's core?

"Mr. Li Ang!"

Just when Director Scorpio was holding a rapier and walking over with anger, preparing to stab Li Ang a few more times to vent his anger, a voice full of exhaustion suddenly came from Li Ang's pocket.

"My second goal didn't succeed, but the first goal has been completed. You can take action!"

This is...

After faintly recognizing the owner of the voice, Director Scorpio's expression tightened, and he backhanded and slashed Li Ang's clothes, revealing the mouth and ears with threads in his pocket.

Alger?!!!

"What did you do?!"

After stabbing the thread ear in Li Ang's pocket with his rapier and then putting the rapier away, Director Scorpio questioned with a cold look:

"Alger! Answer me! What did he let you do?!"

"Director..."

After hearing Director Scorpio's anxious questioning, Alger's voice couldn't help but weaken slightly, and then he declined:

"Logically speaking, I should listen to you, but your brain isn't very clear right now, so it's better to wait until Mr. Li Ang takes us to save you, and then I'll tell you."

"I want you to tell me now!" "This..."

"It's okay, tell him."

After secretly canceling the exchange for the 【Whale Shark Puppet】, Li Ang, while ordering the 【Word-Eating Earthworm】 in the Mirror World to eat the words written with his own blood on the 【Unfair Snake Contract】, said to Alger with a smile:

"Even if he knows now, it's already too late for him to do anything, so it doesn't matter if you tell him the situation."

"Alright then."

After getting Li Ang's permission, Alger couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then, amidst Director Scorpio's ugly expression, answered:

"Director, Mr. Li Ang asked me to be prepared. The moment the machine intelligence core was destroyed, I immediately entered the No. 1 Research Area..."

This is... luring the tiger away from the mountain?!!!

After understanding Li Ang's plan, Director Scorpio was shocked and grabbed Li Ang's collar.

"Your target is Prince Andre? After you lured me out, you let Alger go in to catch him?"

"Half and half."

After smiling at Director Scorpio, Li Ang said:

"Rest assured, letting him go to catch Prince Andre was just the second goal. Besides, didn't Senior Alger just say that the second goal didn't succeed? You don't need to worry about his safety."

"Yes..."

After hearing Li Ang's words, Alger's mouth sighed, and then he said somewhat helplessly:

"Sorry, I spent about 30% of my body to find Prince Andre, but as soon as my threads approached the secret room where he was, they would immediately lose control and disappear without a trace, so I didn't continue to look for him."

"It's okay. Prince Andre is a member of the Luwang Society after all. If he were completely an ordinary person without any trump cards, it would be strange instead."

After hearing the self-blame in Alger's words, Li Ang comforted him:

"He couldn't have not thought that I would drag Director Edward, and let you sneak attack the No. 1 Research Area, but even so, he chose to let Director Edward come to find me. That means he must have other trump cards in his hand, confident that he can deal with your sneak attack.

So from the beginning, I set catching him as the second goal. It doesn't matter if you can't catch him, as long as our first goal is completed, it counts as a success."

First goal?

When he reached this point, Director Scorpio couldn't help but ask:

"What is your first goal?"

"Hmm... regarding this question..."

Li Ang pondered upon hearing this, then nodded:

"Calculating the time, it's almost time. Telling you doesn't matter... Senior Alger's first task is to take away all the scholars in the No. 1 Research Area except Prince Andre, and some instruments necessary for recreating flesh."

"Why take those away? What exactly is your purpose?"

Good heavens... I've hinted so clearly, and you still haven't guessed it?

After glancing at Director Scorpio's increasingly agitated soul, which even faintly disrupted the "precision," Li Ang didn't answer his question, but asked back thoughtfully:

"By the way, if you were really completely controlled, knowing that Senior Alger entered the No. 1 Research Area, shouldn't you be thinking about returning to defend immediately?

Now you're not in a hurry to protect Prince Andre, but instead look like you've lost your eyes, grabbing my collar and shouting... Could it be that Prince Andre's control over you isn't complete? Can you resist the control of soul encoding slightly when you are emotionally agitated?"
