Chapter 2433 ‘Song’
When the inspector said this, Angel finally understood why the inspector suddenly appeared.
The Inspector is generally unable to interfere with the course of the world. There is only one situation in which he can intervene, and that is when performing his functions.
The function of the inspector is to observe various realms for the lawful guild and look for things that are out of order.
The reason why the lawful guild was able to learn information about disordered objects in various areas at the first time and send mysterious hunters to solve them was because of the inspectors' contribution.
Now, there is a mysterious thing that is about to go out of order. According to the rules, the inspector can naturally make some interference.
"It turns out to be a mysterious thing..." Realization flashed in the eyes of Nice and Ferro behind them. No wonder the attraction was beyond their understanding, and even the shadow clones who had no desire were affected.
If it is a mysterious thing, this would make sense. Angel's dream conch can pull even stones into the dream. This kind of thing that completely subverts cognition can only be a mysterious thing.
"Sir, the effect of that mysterious thing is attraction?" Angel asked curiously.
The inspector shook his head: "It has just appeared, and I can't make an accurate judgment. Maybe the attraction is indeed its effect, but it is also possible that the attraction is just the effect before it goes out of order. After it matures, the effect will be It might change.”
"Maturation means that it continues to absorb the blood of sea beasts until the fruit undergoes qualitative changes?"
Inspector: "That's how it should be."
Ness heard the inspector's words and murmured in a low voice: "In other words, we must prevent the fruit from ripening before it completely goes out of order."
The inspector turned his head and glanced at Nice, and said calmly: "If you can stop it, then do it."
Nice was startled for a moment: "Master Inspector, aren't you here to prevent the fruits from ripening?"
The inspector shook his head: "Stop? No. It is not completely out of order yet. All I can do now is observation and evaluation. Only after it is out of order can I take action."
Nice: "What if adults can't deal with the disorder?"
Inspector: "Then notify the Lawful Guild and hand it over to professionals for containment."
When Belos came to the Southern Region, he was the one who notified the Lawful Guild, and the Lawful Guild sent Belos to cooperate with it in containing the disordered objects.
Seeing that the inspector said it so matter-of-factly, Nice frowned slightly. In his view, the risk of disorder is very high. If the problem can be solved before disorder occurs, why take greater risks? The approach of the enforcers is too rigid.
Although Nice didn't say anything else, how could the inspector not understand Nice's thoughts.
To survive in the source world, you must follow rules. Even a behemoth like the Lawful Guild will be restricted.
Just imagine, if the Lawful Guild allows the Enforcers to see mysterious objects and plunder them indiscriminately, will other organizations be happy to see the Enforcers permanently stationed in the metaplane?
Only disordered objects, such mysterious objects that are difficult to control and may cause huge negative impacts, can lawful guilds have the means to contain them without exceeding the limits of most people's hearts.
Of course, in addition to observing the rules, there is another important point, which is that the study of disordered objects has always been a topic that lawful guilds want to conquer. Moreover, the vast majority of disordered objects are quite powerful. Containing such disordered objects can also increase the foundation of a lawful guild; however, it is also possible that they will be backlashed by disordered objects. Lawful guilds have been backfired many times and died. There are countless mysterious hunters, and it is precisely because the Lawful Guild has piled up powerful extraordinary beings that other wizard organizations reluctantly acquiesced in the existence of the inspectors.
This can only be said that the difference in the pattern allows Nice to consider the limitations of his own vision.
The inspector didn't bother to explain to Nice. To him, Nice was no different from an ant. Who cares what the ants think?
The only person present who could make the inspector think highly of him was Angel. Not just because of Frost, but also... the field.
The inspector said calmly: "If you have the ability to stop it and get the unripe fruit, then it is yours. I can also save some effort and don't need to notify the Lawful Guild."
The inspector looked at Nice: "But do you have such strength?"
Ness had a stern look on his face, let alone stopping him, he would be attracted to the fruit as soon as he went out, and he would probably end up with the same fate as his soul waiter.
After the inspector finished speaking, he glanced at Angel: "Speaking of which, you are quite lucky. It just so happens that Angel's... force field can weaken the attraction of the mysterious thing. Otherwise, you But he is not as lucky as the true wizard above, and he will probably become the nourishment of that fruit soon."
Angel's eyes lit up: "What do you mean, sir, that the true wizard above was not affected by the fruit's attraction?"
Inspector: "If he had not been affected, he would have come back long ago. However, his ability to control the 'night' has obscured the fruit to a certain extent and reduced its attractiveness. Of course, it is not as weakened as your field. But it also gave him a little bit of thinking, but this level of thinking would at most prevent him from becoming a walking zombie, and he would have a certain degree of fighting inertia and a certain degree of stalemate with the people controlled by the mysterious fruit. "
"But he still doesn't have clear thinking. He only has certain fighting ability now, but the goal of fighting is just to snatch the fruit. As the fruit gradually matures, the effect will gradually become stronger, and his night will no longer be able to cover him. , will eventually become the nourishment of the fruit.”
That is to say, although Kant and No. 03 are in a stalemate now, he has lost his judgment and has only a certain fighting power. Once the last bit of sanity is lost, he will be like the soul servant and shadow clone before, like a walking corpse, approaching the fruit and being swallowed by the fruit.
"Sir, is there any way to save him?" Angel looked at the Inspector.
The Inspector looked at Angel deeply: "You should know the rules of the Inspector. I appear in front of you and talk to you. This is the limit of what I can do at present."
Angel understood what the Inspector meant.
Now that the fruit is still in a semi-disordered state, the Inspector cannot intervene directly. All he can do is talk to them and give advice.
"What should we do now?" Ferro asked in the mind band.
Before, they thought that maybe they could ask for external help, and Lord Ruye would not die so easily. But now, after the Inspector's explanation, they also understand that asking for external help is basically unreliable. Not to mention whether it is too late, even if it is too late, it may not be able to solve the problem of semi-disordered things.
Angel was silent for a moment and said: "There are only two ways at present, either to accelerate the ripening of the fruit or to prevent the fruit from ripening."
Accelerating the ripening of the fruit is equivalent to making it completely become a disordered thing, and after it becomes a disordered thing, the Inspector can take action.
However, this also has a big flaw. No one knows whether Kant can hold on until it becomes a disordered thing. Maybe Kant can't hold on halfway through the ripening of the fruit.
In addition, no one knows how powerful the effect of the disordered thing is now. Whether the Inspector can deal with it is also a problem.
The most important thing is, is the Inspector willing to save Kant?
The Inspector has no obligation to save the lives of the people affected by the disordered things. They also met the Inspector for the first time today. Why do they think that the Inspector will definitely save Kant?
Therefore, the option of accelerating the ripening of the fruit has too many disadvantages. Neither Nice nor Ferro thinks it is a good choice.
As for the choice of preventing the fruit from ripening, there are actually disadvantages.
Preventing the fruit from ripening can delay the time for Kant to become a walking corpse to a certain extent, but even if it is delayed, it is not certain that a way to rescue Kant can be found.
But compared with accelerating the ripening of the fruit, preventing the fruit from ripening has obviously fewer variables and is controllable.
So, they decided to choose to prevent the fruit from ripening.
But how to prevent the fruit from ripening is another difficult problem?
When everyone was at a loss, Dangros, who was climbing on Angel's shoulder, suddenly said: "It seems that someone is coming over there?"
Everyone looked in the direction of Dangros, and sure enough, a large group of people appeared in the vast fog in the distance.
Because they were in the domain field and the twisted domain of the inspector, the people behind them did not find them.
The leader of this group of people was Angel's acquaintance, Shadow Wizard No. 02, and behind him were a large number of combatants with various numbers.
Ferro said: "Judging from their route, they are probably looking for No. 03."
Nice: "Since they didn't see us, there is no need for us to care about them. Let them explore the way, maybe No. 02 can find a way to contact No. 03."
After all, this weird scene was caused by No. 03. Since No. 02 is a colleague of No. 03, maybe there is a way to deal with this tangled situation.
Ferro also agreed with Nice's statement, so he simply shut up and watched No. 02 approach with people.
At this time, Reynolds, who had been silent, suddenly said: "I saw... Song."
Ferro glanced at Reynolds and didn't care. After all, Reynolds came from the base laboratory, and it was normal for him to recognize the people inside.
Instead, Angel and Nice frowned, as if they thought of something.
"The 'Song' you are talking about is X3?"
Reynolds nodded, with obvious hesitation on his face. 'Song' was once his best friend and shared the same philosophy with him, but later, 'Song' was also brainwashed by the people in the laboratory and gradually drifted away from Reynolds.
But no matter what, 'Song' is still his friend after all, and he hopes that 'Song' can survive.
If he wants 'Song' to survive, he can only ask Angel for help.
But Reynolds also knew that he didn't think he was qualified to let Angel save 'Song'. If he asked, he might not even have the last bit of affection. But the bond with 'Song' in the past made Reynolds really unable to let go, so his expression was so hesitant.
"Sir, 'Song' was my former best friend, I, I..." Reynolds hesitated for a long time, but couldn't say anything.
Angel didn't notice that Reynolds was talking, but thought of another thing.
"X3's ability, I remember you said, is to control sea beasts, right?" Angel looked at Reynolds.
Reynolds nodded blankly.
"Control the sea beast, control the sea beast..." Nice's eyes suddenly lit up, and he raised his head and looked at Angel.
Angel understood what Nice meant and nodded slightly to him: "X3 may be able to prevent the fruit from ripening."
Ferro also understood a little at this time.
"It seems that we can't let them explore the way."
...
It's not difficult to deal with No. 02 and others.
Although Ermi's strength was damaged due to the death of his shadow clone, he still completely defeated No. 02.
As for the others, none of them were formal wizards. Although their fighting power was good and comparable to that of ordinary supernova players, they were still apprentices after all. It was very simple to control them.
It only took a short time for No. 02 to be subdued by Ermi. As for the others, except X3, they all fell into the illusion created by Angel. Under the guidance of the illusion, they turned around and flew to the open sea.
This actually saved them and allowed them to escape the fruit.
It’s not that Angel was kind. He simply felt that since he didn’t plan to let them be cannon fodder for exploring the way, there was no need to let them die; if they died, they would become nutrients for the fruit and help the fruit mature, which was not cost-effective.
After No. 02 was trapped, he was handed over to Ferro for interrogation to see if No. 02 knew about the fruit of No. 03.
As for Angel and Nice, they focused their attention on No. X3.
X3 was a girl wearing a green shepherd’s skirt. At first glance, she was pretty. But her eyes looked a little dull, like a robot that had lost its emotions.
Even when facing several wizards, X3 could remain expressionless and indifferent.
However, everyone present was smart. X3 looked very calm and indifferent, but her eyes would occasionally tremble, and she did not dare to look at Nice and Angel directly, which showed that her heart was not as calm as it seemed.
Nice: "We have something for you to do."
X3 lowered her eyes, looking as if she had ignored him.
Nice did not care, and continued: "If you do it, you can leave alive. As for the specific situation, Reynolds will tell you."
Nice did not say what would happen if he failed, he believed that X3 should understand it himself.
Nice stepped back and let Reynolds talk to X3.
When facing Reynolds, X3 finally raised his eyes and said in a firm tone: "You took that step, you are a betrayer."
Reynolds' expression was a little complicated: "Song, you are the one who understands me the most, you should understand why I do this."
X3 sneered and did not respond.
Reynolds wanted to say something, but Nice interrupted: "Reynolds, if you have any love words, you will have time to say them after this is over. Now don't dawdle and talk about business."
Reynolds nodded. He witnessed the changes of the fruit and understood what was most important at the moment. Moreover, this was related to whether "Song" could survive, so he did not exchange pleasantries and started talking about business.
