In a dark basement, dim light bulbs hung on the wall. The lights flickered and seemed to go out at any moment.

The whole room was filled with a strong smell of blood, which was nauseating.

"He ran really fast."

Xia Xiu's incarnation [Sisyphus] slowly floated behind him, his purple-gold body glowing with a strange luster under the dim light. His body was as perfect as a sculpture of David, with clear muscle lines.

Exudes a strong sense of power.

The surrounding ground and walls were splattered with bright red blood, as if a blood rain had just ended.

The blood arrows produced by the long-legged owl's explosion just now turned the entire basement into a mess, with dense potholes covering every corner.

These potholes are about ten centimeters deep, as if countless sharp arrows penetrated the concrete instantly, leaving tragic marks.

The ground was littered with gravel and cracked tiles, and there were dripping drops of blood hanging from the edges of the holes in the walls, forming pools of bright red blood on the ground.

The entire underground operating room looked eerie, the air was filled with the smell of corruption, and the surgical instruments scattered everywhere were stained with blood, reflecting the weak light coldly.

On the operating table nearby, there were various dissection tools and bottles and jars, many of which were stained red with blood, which looked particularly shocking.

Beside Xia Xiu, the female forensic doctor Lisa had already stood up. She looked carefully at the blond man wearing a mask in front of her.

After experiencing a series of beatings and life-and-death trials, Lisa became extremely cautious and fearful, and did not dare to play any more tricks or tricks in front of Xia Xiu.

There was fear and awe in her eyes, and her body was trembling slightly. She tried her best to stay calm, but she could not completely hide the tension in her heart.

Wearing a mask, Xia Xiu pulled the fishing rod bag behind his back, and his incarnations [Sisyphus] and [Vashak] sneaked into his body.

The whole process was silent, as if it had never happened.

This made Lisa, the female forensic doctor next to her, even more confused. She stood there and looked hesitantly at the place where [Sisyphus] and [Vashak] disappeared, her heart full of surprise and doubt.

"How can one person have two incarnations..."

This thought flashed through her mind, but then, an inexplicable force began to erode her consciousness.

She felt dizzy, her vision began to distort, and everything around her seemed to be blurred and deformed.

The impressions of those two incarnations gradually collapsed in her memory and became blurry, like a ball of scattered ink, making it difficult to piece together a complete image.

Buzz buzz~

Then, a buzzing sound suddenly exploded in her ears, like a stinging pain like a thousand arrows piercing her heart, making her thoughts instantly confused.

Lisa covered her ears and tried to dispel the annoying noise, but to no avail.

Some "wrong impressions" began to emerge in her mind. These impressions were messy and illogical, like memory fragments that had been deliberately tampered with.

She saw in the blurry picture, the images of [Sisyphus] and [Vashak] were constantly changing. Sometimes they were tall purple-gold figures, and sometimes they turned into ordinary human beings.

These distorted memory fragments were tumbling in her mind, making it difficult for her to distinguish between reality and illusion.

Cold sweat flowed down the forehead of the female forensic doctor.

She tried to recall the scene just now, but found that everything had become extremely blurry.

At this moment, Xia Xiu's plain voice sounded in her ears.

"Okay, now that the annoying flies have been temporarily driven away, it's time to continue talking about the topics we need to talk about."

This voice was like a shot in the arm, suddenly bringing the female forensic doctor back to reality from the chaos.

Lisa felt a sense of clarity, and the confusion and distortion she had just felt instantly dissipated.

Her thoughts became clearer, and she naturally forgot the memory full of logical errors just now.

Lisa only remembered what Xia Xiu did to her, and that she was attacked by an avatar just now, and Xia Xiu's avatar defused and counterattacked the opponent's attack.

However, she knew nothing about Xia Xiu's incarnation ability, as if that part of her memory had been deliberately erased.

What's even more strange is that she doesn't feel anything unusual about this, as if this is how it should be.

The female forensic doctor looked at Xia Xiu, her heart filled with awe and a little uneasiness.

Xia Xiu said in his usual warm voice:

"Don't be too nervous. Can't you see that I won't kill you, otherwise you won't have the chance to stand in front of me."

Lisa listened to Xia Xiu's words and was silent for a while, with complex emotions surging in her heart.

She knew that there was a huge difference between her situation and the opponent's strength. If Xia Xiuzhen wanted to take her life, she would have no room to resist.

After a moment of silence, Lisa bowed to Xia Xiu, still feeling a little uneasy in her heart.

"Your strength and wisdom are far superior to mine. It is my honor to stand in front of you."

According to the class classification of Sarkic cultists, she belongs to the second class among the six classes of the pyramid - [Zander], while the masked man in front of her belongs to the third class - [Volutar], also known as the [Wise Man]

].

Sarkic believers of this class can already be called patriarchs or even patriarchs in the church, and they hold considerable power and knowledge.

Further up are the [Cassisters], these people are already the religious and secular leaders of the Sarkic organization.

They are called [Flesh Enemies/Flesh Sorcerers]. Most of these people already have various thaumaturgic means to become biologically immortal, and are even more difficult to eliminate than the vampires hiding in the hub.

And then higher up are the [Klavigar], also known as the [High Warlocks]. They are the top of the sarkic people who live under the great warlocks. They are the "saints" of the sarkic people and even Ion.

Currently, there are only four Sarkic people related to this class, and these four are the Four Sarkic Saints.

Lisa has the mark of one of the four saints, [Saan].

In response to the salute of the female forensic doctor, Xia Xiu nodded slightly without comment, and then turned his eyes to the monster [Behemoth] dormant in the corner.

He waved and summoned the creepy, deformed monster.

The female forensic doctor Lisa looked at the [Behemoth] that originally belonged to her and was transformed into the deformed and terrifying appearance she now has. She didn't know how to express her inner emotions for a while.

Her heart was filled with complex emotions, including loss and helplessness, as well as a hint of fear.

The young female shepherd of flesh and blood has been broken by Iron Fist several times, and now she no longer expects to get her BIO seed back.

The blond masked man was extremely disapproving of the ferocious-looking monster. He stroked the temple hair of [Behemoth] that turned into a lion's head like a dog. The lion's head roared in a low voice, and the mane was on his fingers.

Trembling slightly.

Xia Xiu's movements seemed gentle, but his powerful control made people shudder.

He turned his head and looked at Lisa, his voice still calm but with unquestionable majesty.

"What you said when you were controlled by that owl just now doesn't count. Now we are starting to talk again."

Lisa stood in the dark basement, the weak light flickering and illuminating her face, making her look even paler and nervous.

"In order to ensure the efficiency of the dialogue,"

Xia Xiu continued, with a hint of unquestionable firmness in his tone.

"I will state my purpose directly first - I want to investigate the multiple steps and participants involved in the human body trade line behind you, including the details of illegal acquisition, storage, transportation, trading and use of human organs.

.”

When Lisa heard these words, her heart was shocked and her eyebrows jumped involuntarily.

She subconsciously touched her neck where she had been stabbed in a "suicide" by controlling her body. Although the wound had healed, the involuntary and terrifying feeling still lingered.

Her heart was full of fear and contradiction, and she was already in a dilemma.

If she tells everything about the consortium and the human body trade line, she will face never-ending weird persecution of having her body controlled like she did just now, and will also offend a large number of powerful and dangerous people; if she does not tell anything about the human body trade line

and the secrets of the consortium, she now has to face the persecution of this patriarch from the Sarkic Cult.

She was well aware of the dangerous situation she was in, but she still mustered up the courage and asked tentatively:

"Dear Master, can you protect your colleagues from being implicated?"

Her voice trembled slightly, with a hint of begging and hope, as if she was grasping at the last straw.

When Xia Xiu heard Lisa's request, he did not respond immediately. Instead, he looked at Lisa carefully, as if assessing her sincerity and value.

Xia Xiu was well aware of Lisa's little thoughts, but he did not show any impatience or disgust.

For him, this investigation is not only about the human body trade of [pseudohuman beings], but also involves the Sarkic Cult.

He was thinking about the complicated relationship between this.

The involvement of Sarkicism made this incident unexpectedly more complex and dangerous.

After the punch of [Sisyphus] just now, you can actually use elements to corrode and pollute the opponent's mind, but that will only scare the snake and make the consortium behind it run faster.

Obviously, the trade in human bodies has been involved in the turbulent political struggle within the Edici Federation.

The sudden appearance of the little-known Hermes Corporation involves the Black Gold Empire and [Trust Giants] hidden in the shadow of the Federation.

The reason why the centralized political group of the federal government, headed by the Reserve Governor of the Second Bank, chose to cooperate with the Authority and itself - its purpose is to crack down on dissidents, strengthen the control of the federal government, and use the influence of the New Alliance to control the gray

Zones and black zones are cleaned and corrected.

As a bargaining chip, the fourth swordsman in heaven will form a political alliance with the second banker John K. Hanks, gain the political connections of Hanks' family, and at the same time, gain the support of the Federal Reserve Bank in the Ivy War.

What he needs to do is to deal with things that the interest groups represented by John K. Hanks cannot deal with openly, such as cleaning up the garbage.

Now, Xia Xiu is full of curiosity about the inner workings and level of involvement of the Sarkic Cult, and wants to know why they get involved in the murky waters of human body trade.
