Chapter 502: Ruthless Hand! Combined Chapter
No one?
After accidentally coming up empty, Li Ang, who had played the role of a "flying thief" once, couldn't help but frown and press his hand toward the black goat's forehead, preparing to use his soul vision to find the target's location.
However, the black goat in the shopping bag tilted its head slightly, avoiding his finger, and then whispered a reminder:
"Don't use your ability yet, don't even open your soul vision! There's the smell of a heart everywhere here; just like how I can discover its traces, he can definitely discover ours too!"
After sniffing like a dog, the black goat muttered with both joy and worry:
"This smell is really strong; it seems my heart is doing better than me... Tsk..."
Hearing the black goat's muttering, Li Ang, who was about to leave to find the next target, couldn't help but glance at it sideways.
Good fellow, you don't fear your brother living a hard life, you only fear your brother driving a Land Rover, right?
"By the way, there seems to be something I forgot to ask..."
After pulling his hand out of the shopping bag, Li Ang asked curiously:
"Doesn't your heart also have its own intelligence?"
"Of course, I am the great demon closest to a True God!"
The black goat snorted:
"Although it can't reach the level where a piece of meat can retain wisdom like a True God, it's not far off. For an organ like the heart that entrusts part of the authority, it's very normal to have consciousness after leaving the main body!"
Fine, if you say it's normal, then it's normal.
Having no interest in discussing demon physiological hygiene with the black goat, Li Ang directly asked the question he was most concerned about:
"Since the two of you have two separate wills, then after I get your sheep... heart, who will be the dominant one, you or it? Or will you merge into one?"
"This..."
Hearing Li Ang's question, the black goat couldn't help but be slightly startled, then said hesitantly:
"It should be... me, right?"
"???"
Looking at its appearance of truly having no confidence, Li Ang couldn't help but complain:
"Before, when I asked you about the heart's ability, you said you weren't sure, only knowing it had something to do with authority like arrogance and domination. Now, when I ask you who will be in charge after getting the heart, why is there still no clear answer? Aren't you a great demon with wide experience? Why don't you even understand your own body?"
"I am indeed a great demon, but this is the first time I've been dismantled into such pieces! How could I understand things I haven't experienced?
As for the ability... although my heart grew in my body, I haven't dug it out to look at it, so what's strange about not knowing what it can do? The blood vessels in your body are also yours, but have you ever cut yourself open and seen them with your own eyes? Do you know exactly how long they are?"
After habitually being stubborn, the black goat, whose face was a bit unable to hold up, smacked its lips, feeling that the matter of who would be in charge really needed to be considered.
Not to mention anything else, according to the original positioning in the body, the arrogance and fighting that I, as the horn, mastered, could only barely rank third in intensity, while the arrogance and ambition mastered by the heart were the real first in intensity.
If I rushed to get the heart back, but failed to merge successfully and instead lost the dominant position, and was ridden on the head by it, that would be traveling thousands of miles to acknowledge a wild father...
"Li Ang, put your hand on your heart and say, have I been treating you okay?"
After pondering for a while, the black goat, sensing a certain crisis, took the initiative to seek support:
"Although I have selfish motives and always want to incite you to go all out and have a blast, have I ever caused you trouble? Haven't I done whatever you said?
You don't let me make a sound, so I don't speak; you're in danger, and I remind you. Besides smoking some of your cigarettes, I haven't asked for anything, and even when you stepped on my head, I didn't get angry..."
Feeling more and more aggrieved as a great demon, the black goat decisively stopped playing the victim and instead said righteously:
"Li Ang, think about it carefully. If I don't beat it in the end and lose the dominant position, will the new me still cooperate with you like this?
Not to mention our friendship that has gone through life and death, just based on this point, shouldn't you stand on my side?"
"..."
To be reasonable, this guy really wasn't wrong...
Not to mention anything else, the sheep horn was beaten up quite badly in the hands of the red-haired bureau chief, basically equivalent to being heavily "tamed," and it must be more honest than the remaining six "wild" ones. If the dominant will changed, it might not be as obedient as it was.
"Fine..."
After poking his head out to look and confirming there was no one there, Li Ang flipped out of the window again, straddled the Witch's Broom floating in the corner, and then asked casually:
"How should I help you so you can continue to occupy the dominant position?"
Phew... at least you have a conscience, kid.
Seeing that Li Ang didn't refute, the black goat secretly breathed a sigh of relief in its heart, then hurriedly struck while the iron was hot:
"Then, of course, it's to beat it up ruthlessly!"
Without any regard for the feelings of the same mother... same sheep, the black goat said sinisterly:
"It just so happens that your pendant carries the power of the Holy Spirit, which is naturally harmful to demons. After I help you get the sheep heart, you just go full throttle and brand it ruthlessly with your pendant! Brand its intensity lower than mine, and let it know who the big brother is!"
"Hmm, we'll see when the time comes."
"This can't be 'we'll see when the time comes'! You have to be ruthless!"
Finding that Li Ang's "stance" didn't seem very firm and worrying that he still had the intention of "negotiating peace" with his own heart, the black goat hurriedly continued to blow wind in his ear:
"Although I'm seeing my own heart for the first time, the authority it carries is arrogance! You don't even need to think to know that it definitely isn't born willing to be under others. You have to be ruthless directly and kill its spirit!"
"Hmm, hmm, but I don't really like being ruthless for no reason. Let's wait until we find it!"
After dealing with the black goat for a few sentences, Li Ang took out the list from his pocket and looked at it. Among the eight names written on the list, the last four had already been crossed out.
Still four left...
After taking away the female prisoner's bandages and sending her and the female police officer out of the Bobby Laien Manor, Li Ang, who had completed the investigation, sneaked back in, tied up a servant who looked to have quite a high status, and "interrogated" the locations of these people using soul vision.
He had gone to see the four people who had already been crossed out one by one. Although their souls were filled with a rotten, moldy smell, they didn't have the smell produced after using sheep parts, so they shouldn't be the real targets.
And this Thomas Bobby Laien, ranked fourth on the list, was the representative of the Bobby Laien family in the water company incident and also the person whose body first showed the smell of the sheep heart.
Although the black goat had said that he shouldn't be the holder, just someone temporarily endowed with a small portion of power, and his soul had been tampered with, meaning he would collapse directly the moment he was about to leak secrets, Li Ang still held the intention of being safe rather than sorry and ran over to take a look, but didn't expect to come up empty.
Then he would have to skip him and continue looking up.
Considering that using soul vision to search for the blonde middle-aged man's whereabouts might alert the sheep heart in advance, Li Ang made a mark with his fingernail on Thomas Bobby Laien's name, then continued to look up. Oliver Bobby Laien... this person was a high-ranking official in the Road Administration Department. According to that servant's statement, he was recently dealing with an unexpectedly stalled railway project and hadn't returned to his residence in the Bobby Laien Manor, so he could only be skipped too. Then the next one is...
Bobi Bobby Laien.
Looking at the name ranked second, Li Ang remembered the encounter of the female prisoner's husband, and his brow couldn't help but twist slightly; instead, he hoped he was the holder of the sheep heart.
It was just a pity that according to his "history of rising to power," this person was far less suspicious than his elder brother, the current Duke of Lionheart.
Although the current Duke of Lionheart couldn't be called ordinary, his background could only be said to be passable; his succession order was only ranked seventh initially.
But he opened a cheat code all the way, not only did his competitors die or flee, but he also inexplicably received the support of a large number of clan members, reversing the situation in desperate straits many times, yet almost no one could clearly say how he won.
Compared to his brother, who almost wrote the word "suspicious" on his face, although Bobi Bobby Laien's resume was also full of suspicious points, relatively speaking, it was much more normal.
Except for his quite ruthless methods and his fondness for playing with power politics, which were quite suspicious, he was almost a standard Bobby Laien noble, and... he seemed quite diligent?
Looking at the window on the fifth floor of the main building that was still lit, Li Ang couldn't help but frown, hesitating whether to go up and "visit" forcibly now, or wait for this person to turn off the lights and rest before going up.
However, at this moment, the shopping bag in Li Ang's hand shook violently, and in his ear came the black goat's extremely excited urging:
"It's him! It's him!
Hurry up! I have a feeling! He's in that room; he just used his power!"
Is it him? That would be killing two birds with one stone!
Hearing the black goat's words, Li Ang, who had confirmed the target, no longer concealed himself, clamped the Witch's Broom with both legs, and slammed into that window like a sharp arrow.
"Bang! Crash!"
"Who?!"
After letting out a standard sharp shout when encountering a sudden attack, the young man who looked about twenty-seven or twenty-eight stood up abruptly, just preparing to run out of the room to call the guards like an ordinary person.
But when he rushed to the door, he seemed to have discovered something, stopped his steps with joy in his eyes, and stared dead at the shopping bag in Li Ang's hand.
"Is it you?"
"It's... gurgle..."
After licking a hole in the shopping bag with his tongue and revealing his mouth, the black goat was just preparing to say a few harsh words to the other self, but before it could even spit out a syllable, it was directly filled with a mouthful of wild wind.
Following the experience taught by senior Ai Ma, "unless it's to extract intelligence, never talk nonsense with the enemy," Li Ang fully activated the Witch's Broom the moment he crashed through the window, wrapping a large amount of glass shards with the air shield and pressing them fiercely toward the young man!
Even because he felt it wasn't safe enough, to prevent him from having any life-saving means, Li Ang simultaneously activated the power of the Holy Spirit Pendant, paying the physical strength equivalent to a five-kilometer jog in one breath, and crushed the young man's soul with all his might!
"Puff, puff, puff!"
The sound of sharp weapons breaking into flesh rang out one after another. Under the mental impact of the Holy Spirit Pendant, the young man with joy in his eyes felt his gaze go slightly blank; before he could make any resistance, he was swept away by the storm in front of him and slammed heavily into the wall.
Hundreds of glass shards, like sharp little knives, cut his front body until it was bloody, even piercing through it directly, slamming onto the violet wall behind him, blooming one after another strange and bright flowers of fresh blood...
"..."
Damn!
After struggling out of the shopping bag, looking at the young man who was almost nailed to the wall, the black goat couldn't help but open its mouth in shock.
Is this what you call not liking to be ruthless? Then how ruthless must you be when you are?
Just like that... solved?
Although the situation he most expected had occurred, solving the target so easily still gave Li Ang a sense of illusory unreality, and...
A bit nauseating...
Even though the moment he took action after breaking the window, he had already confirmed the target's soul characteristics—the type that could be shot on sight, so he didn't need to worry about killing a good person, and basically had no psychological burden.
But looking at the corpse on the wall that absolutely, absolutely could not be broadcast on TV no matter how it was censored, Li Ang's stomach couldn't help but churn, and the blood color on his face faded by more than half.
Retreating two steps, then raising his sleeve to cover his mouth and nose, taking two deep breaths, Li Ang, with a pale face, hurriedly urged while the Bobby Laien family hadn't found them yet:
"Where is your heart? Hurry up and point it out to me!"
"Oh, oh!"
The black goat, who had come back to its senses, scanned the young man, just preparing to speak out the location of the sheep heart, but seemed to have discovered some abnormal situation and screamed sharply.
"Li Ang! He..."
"I know!"
Even though he was disgusted by the bloody scene, Li Ang insisted on not looking away. He discovered the abnormality even earlier than the black goat!
The moment the "corpse" on the wall's eyeballs turned slightly, before the black goat could scream, he took the lead in activating the 【Holy Spirit Pendant】, condensing several "stones" the size of eggs, and smashed the young man's joints with bang, bang, bang, bang sounds.
Because he didn't know why the other party could return from the dead, Li Ang didn't hold back at all this time. Before destroying the corpse's joints, he first condensed several "fine needles" and stabbed them at high speed toward the young man's vital points!
"Puff, puff, puff, puff!"
Under Li Ang's all-out destruction, in just a single breath, more than ten bright blood flowers burst out on the young man's body, and even his brow was pierced with a small hole.
But strangely, even though his flesh had suffered this level of damage, he still maintained the ability to act normally, and even tremblingly took two steps back and sat back in his chair.
"So good! Really so good!"
Tilting his head slightly to avoid the invisible attack aimed at his vocal cords, the young man, with a bloody face, showed an extremely brilliant smile toward Li Ang.
"When I knew 【Horn】 had fallen into that woman's hands, I thought it would be impossible to get it back, and I could only go find the remaining five. I didn't expect that woman to actually give it to you!"
Looking at Li Ang, who was breathing heavily and looking at him in shock, the young man said sincerely:
"You are that new employee of the Bureau of Cleanup, right? Thank you! You really helped me a big favor!"
