Chapter 922: 520 Three Questions
Our reaction has become slow?
Hearing Leon's words, the three cleaners who were already dead souls couldn't help but show astonishment. Alger snatched the nail gun and, not believing in evil, fired another shot at the ground in front of his feet.
"Puff!"
And with psychological preparation, this reaction was much better than before. Before the nail hit the ground, Alger's right foot scattered into countless silk threads again, firmly entangling the fired nail.
But Alger, who succeeded in the test, not only didn't have the joy of success on his face, but his face became extremely ugly.
"It's indeed much slower..."
After firing all the remaining nails in the nail gun, looking at the two nails caught by 【Skin Thread】 and the four nails that leaked through and hit the ground, Alger said with a livid face:
"It feels like less than one-eighth of the original, and even less. My reaction speed is almost the same as an ordinary person! Damn it! Why didn't I discover this before?"
"I'm not very clear either, but I blindly guess that you should have been hit by some means, leading to a decrease in the upper limit of reaction speed."
Looking at the four nails hit into the ground, Leon also frowned and said:
"The more cleaners who often carry and use high-level anomalous objects, the easier it is to be infected by anomalous objects, and the body transforms toward the strength of 'non-human.' But no matter how strong this transformation is, it is ultimately based on the human body.
Simply put, no matter how high the infection value is, we can still feel cold and hot, will be thirsty, hungry, and injured, but our vitality is far stronger than ordinary people, our reaction speed is faster, our bodies are stronger, our souls are more vigorous, and we can use anomalous objects more and longer.
But these changes actually don't show up so clearly in normal times. A reaction speed much faster than ordinary people doesn't mean that we see everyone talking and doing things in slow motion. It just means that we can exert a higher upper limit when we need to react."
Speaking of this, Leon paused slightly and pointed to the pedestrians on the street:
"It's just like the relationship between running and walking. When ordinary people are chased by beasts, they can run a hundred meters in ten seconds, but when walking normally, a hundred meters may take more than a minute, because for walking, this speed is completely enough.
And the other party seems to have done something to lock your ability to 'run.' Because you don't need to be that fast when walking normally, you can hardly feel it. But when a beast really pounces and you need to run with all your strength, you will find that you have lost the ability to run."
So that's how we fell!
Through Leon's test and narration, after understanding the origin of those "fast artillery fire," the three cleaners suddenly realized. Female cleaner Mo Na couldn't help but say urgently:
"If it's just like this, let's go find the Director! As long as we tell him the secret here, maybe he still has a chance..."
"Sorry, I don't think this is a good idea."
Before the female cleaner could finish her words, Leon immediately interrupted:
"You might have died a bit early and didn't see what happened later. Nicole told me that Director Edward's body was blown to pieces by half, and his soul was forcibly sealed in the broken body. They have no chance of turning the tables."
"But we can't..."
"It's not that I don't save people, it's that I don't have the ability to save them."
Leon shook his head and said uncompromisingly:
"The more it is at this time, the more cautious we must be in making decisions. The information we have is not enough. Rash action will not only fail to save people but will bury the last hope and completely mess things up.
Senior Mo Na, although this sentence is a bit unpleasant, I have to say it. If your suggestion is based on rational judgment, then I will definitely consider it carefully. But if it is just an impulse brought by emotion, then I can only ask you to calm down first."
"I... sorry... I was impatient..."
After biting her lip hard, female cleaner Mo Na, who had calmed down a little, lowered her head and took the initiative to apologize, then asked:
"So what do we do now? Try to investigate the thing that suppressed our reaction speed and help you and Alger get rid of the influence?"
"This can be investigated, but the priority needs to be put back."
Leon shook his head upon hearing this:
"Even if we find out how the other party did it, we may not have the ability to lift it. So let's investigate the more important ones first, such as the location of the palace and the Atifi 01 main body, as well as the situation of the royal family."
"But how to investigate?"
The female cleaner couldn't help but ask:
"The block changes in the Krolok Kingdom are too frequent. The Director and we have been investigating for almost two weeks, but we only found some irrelevant things. These two places still have no clue, and the royal family has been living in seclusion these years, so there is no way to investigate at all."
"Don't worry, I already have a clue."
Taking out his identification card and throwing it away, Leon said while signaling Alger to take out his identification card and destroy it:
"Once we reach the embassy area, we will have the opportunity to get closer to these two places. As for the situation of the royal family... Princess Feliya, do you have anything to say?"
Looking at the green-eyed girl who was still "fainting" beside him, Leon narrowed his eyes and said:
"Princess Feliya, can you please tell me why, when you heard that we had an accident, the emotion that surged in your heart was not panic, but secret joy?"
Damn!
After being pointed out by Leon, Princess Feliya, who was pretending to faint, trembled all over. She had no choice but to open her eyes and say with a frightened face:
"Because... because you are kidnappers. I was kidnapped by you. Hearing that you are not going well, of course, I can't help but... be a little happy..."
"Okay, you pass."
Leon nodded noncommittally and then, while twisting the identification card handed over by Alger, said calmly:
"Then the second question, when we were discussing the means that locked our reaction speed, I detected obvious 'pride' in your soul. How do you explain this?"
"This..."
"If you can't explain it, then I can only guess it myself."
Looking at Princess Feliya, whose temples were sweating unconsciously, whose big eyes were rolling around, and who didn't dare to look at him, Leon said expressionlessly:
"Since you feel 'pride' in your heart, it proves that this means is related to you, and it is even possible that this method was proposed by you. Princess Feliya, am I right?"
"..."
"If you don't speak, I will take it as your default."
After looking at the panicked soul of the green-eyed girl, Leon couldn't help but sigh and then asked with a frown:
"The next is the third question... Besides you and Prince Andrei, are there any other living people in the entire Krolok royal family?" ===== CHAPTER 923 =====
