299 Confession.
Shi Lang looked at the person in front of him, it was a man with characteristics, like Cara, but that was it, he did not have any further connection to the empress of Arcadia.
The Terran did not wish to say anything more and just watched the person struggling on the ground. Shi Lang had chopped off the limbs of this beast man. He did not use soul search on this person because that will be an easy way out for this person.
Shi Lang did not wish for this guy to die so easily, he had yet to locate Cara and the people from the secret division. Shi Lang also had to study this guy to revert the tricks this guy pulled on Archie Arkham.
The man on the floor, however, did not say anything to Shi Lang. Let alone any information, not even a cuss came out of his mouth. This showed his dedication to his cause, and this was what Shi Lang liked.
He smiled and said, “You know, I like this attitude of yours, this will help me play with you a bit longer and also make you experience a lot more colorful life.”
He was already sliding into his demon mode. Suddenly he heard a loud voice, “Can you open us first? How long do I have to hang inverted?”
Shi Lang suddenly lost his aura and shook his head, before he walked out of the room and came to the holding cells where the Ace division was all tied up in different cells.
Amelia was hung inverted from the ground. Shi Lang waved his hand and a blade of spirit energy cut off the rope, however, he did not unlock the cell. He said, “I do not wish to see you inside as well, but until I confirm your mental status, I cannot let you guys out.”
“What do you mean mental status? Just say that you want to check if we are under the influence. Say, did you lose your art of articulation in that competition?”, retorted Amelia.
Shi Lang gave her a sheepish laugh and the lady said, “Go, find me the culprit soon, we will wait here.”
The young general sighed and said, “As you command, My lady.”
Then he walked away after untying the other people. Shi Lang walked back to the room, but his face was severely cold. He asked, “Did you manipulate Cara to find out the details of the Terran people? Who told you our strengths and weaknesses?”
His questions were simple, but the impact was great. He wanted to know how this person found out about the methods to restrict the spirit flow. The holding cells were made especially, and they were sealing out the spiritual energy.
There was no reasonable explanation behind this thing being coincident. Shi Lang found the man not talking at all, and said, “Fine since you do not wish to say anything, I will just have to use a vicious method and track down every single person related to you by blood, and then kill them in front of you. Do not worry, I have this much skill.”
That said, Shi Lang began to recite a Sanskrit mantra. This language was not translatable with the help of automated earpieces and translators.
Shi Lang was simply chanting a mantra to calm his mind; it was an obscure placebo that he planted the man with. When he was dissecting this guy, Shi Lang had the bot track down people from the family of this person.
How cruel was he to do this, to be honest, this method was just to push this guy to cooperate, but now he will use it a bit earlier? As long as he gets the answers quickly and honestly, he would use any method and anyone for it.
The person on the ground did not expect this guy to be so cruel, he lost his temper and said, “How dare you touch my family? Do you believe that I will set your own comrades to kill the people and have this incident flash through the galaxy?”
Shi Lang sighed and waved his hands, then a few spirit stones were embedded in the room’s ceiling. They formed an array, and quickly a barrier covered the entire room, and Shi Lang said, “You can try to act now.”
The man was surprised to see this phenomenon and tried to use his prowess but was unable to sense any of the people under his control. His mind became restless, and he shouted, “What have you done to me? Where are my pawns?”
Shi Lang sneered and clicked his tongue in disgust and said, “Just because you had the ability, you thought you will control some people, and then you began to treat yourself like a king? What a grand personality you have, scum.”
If not for the fact that this person’s body was too feeble, he would have kicked him. He said, “You can now spend a few minutes to think if you wish to regret and come clear, I promise, I will not implicate any innocent person in my vengeance. However, if you still wish to sit down like a stone, then do not blame me for being cruel and cold-hearted.”
That said, he went outside the room but did not close the door. He did not have anything much to do in this place now, the people did not know he was here. The guards at this place were all perfect puppets. They did not move without commands from the man inside. This was an isolated place, and to avoid being backtracked, this guy had not installed any digital means of security.
The laser set outside was the only thing he had set up. The money was spent to keep these puppets alive and fed. If they did not have food, they would not be able to perform well. Shi Lang looked inside the room and saw the man trying to crawl his way out of the barrier, and after half an hour, he has only managed to displace himself by ten inches.
Shi Lang sighed and mumbled, “Was I too cruel to not even leave stumps of his limbs?”
Then he shook his head and snapped his fingers.
…
The beastman was laying on the floor, suddenly he heard the door flung open, and in walked Shi Lang and a young beastman followed behind him. Shi Lang smiled and said, “How are you feeling now? Do you recognize who this is?”
The man on the ground had frozen stiff. He opened his mouth with great difficulty. He said, “You, how can you be here?”
The young man in front of him replied with indifference, “Why can I be not here? Did you think that if you ran across half the world, you will be able to get rid of us?”
The tone was cold and indifferent as if a knife was hidden inside the mouth and would aim to kill anyone who heard the words spoken from it. Shi Lang on the side looked at the man on the ground and said, “What do you think? Do you like the gift?”
The man shivered and said, “Please, let him go. Do what you want to do with me, but let my brother go.”
Shi Lang shook his head and said, “I will not do anything to him, but he will surely do it. I told him that you love him a lot, and if he suffered, you will be in pain so I told him that I will kill him in front of you. However, the hate this guy had for you is stronger than anything else. He simply said, to make you feel something worse, he will commit suicide in front of you.”
Then the handsome devil took out a knife from his holster and handed it to the young man. The young man crouched down to meet the eyes of the man on the floor and said, “You left us all to die, now you should see how I will actually look when I die, right?”
The man shook his head, tears spurt from his eyes as he said, “Kailo, I beg you, please. Don’t do this. I did not wish to leave you all, the circumstances were against us. Please forgive me, do not harm yourself.”
The young man did not waver and placed the knife on his neck and said, “Kilo, you are responsible for my death.”
Kilo was the man on the floor, he knew that his brother hated him, and he could not do anything about it, given his state, he was unable to even help himself. In despair, Kilo turned to look at Shi Lang and said, “You want to know about Cara and the things I have done, right? I will tell you all about it. Please ask him to stop. If he died, then you can forget about getting anything, do you hear me you piece of shit?”
