Chapter 340 Three hundred and thirty-seven · BE12 · Untrustworthy

   In front of the crimson desk, two well-equipped S-rank Soul Hunters surrounded Su Mingan on the left and the right.

   They looked vigilant, their hands resting on the swords around their waists, and they could draw swords at any time.

  Behind the table, Ellas raised his eyelids from the documents on the table. He rubbed his temples, looking a little tired.

   "Explain, S-rank Soul Hunter, Su Rin." Ellas' face no longer had the affinity he used to be.

   He looked at Su Mingan, and was very serious at this time:

   "The barrier can only be broken without damage by the builder himself. Are you the builder of the barrier in this morning's incident?"

  Su Ming'an didn't speak.

  … He is not the erector of the barrier.

   Just because of Su Rin's special ability, he somehow broke the barrier without injury.

   "Want to respond to the interrogation with silence?" Ellas stood up, the silver stars on his shoulders glowed with light.

   With his hands behind his back, he wandered two steps in the office: "Unfortunately, here in Soul Hunter, silence can only mean acquiescence."

   Dull footsteps echoed in the quiet office, Su Mingan raised his head.

   "...you explain it too, Ellas." He suddenly spoke.

   Ellas turned his head sideways, his eyes flashed:

"what?"

   "What happened to that second cleaning mission?" Su Mingan said lightly.

   "What's the matter?" Ellas still asked back.

   "On Thirteenth Street, East District, there is no hidden soul clan at all." Su Ming'an looked at him: "What are you thinking about entrusting the impossible task to me?"

   Ellas laughed.

   He put his hand on the pistol at his waist.

"The task I gave you is real. There are indeed soul clans on Thirteenth Street." Ellas said: "The victim has appeared, it is Garde. You can also see that she has huge wounds on her body. , was so cruelly hung up by the soul clan again - it was because of your negligence last night that you didn't catch the hidden soul clan, and she was killed."

   "Impossible." Su Ming'an vetoed it outright.

   Thirteenth Street doesn't have the taste of soul clan at all, how could there be soul clan.

   "...Then how do you know 'impossible'?" Ellas suddenly lowered his tone.

   "I heard that soul clans can sense each other's breath - they can accurately determine which areas have soul clans, and which areas do not have soul clans."

   Ellas said, his footsteps turned a half arc on the smooth tiles, and the leather boots made a slight noise.

  He raised his head and stared at Su Ming'an who was standing at the table: "I also heard that a new leader wearing a white mask appeared in the city of Soul Clan in the Southern District the night before yesterday."

  Su Mingan looked at him, his expression unchanged.

"In addition, I heard that just the night before yesterday, you mysteriously disappeared all night." Ellas turned around, and with a flick of his hand, a pure white mask appeared: "Someone from Soul Hunter provided me with a screen recording. Shi, the stone records the appearance of the new leader of the soul clan... This is a new mask made by a craftsman, do you need me to check it for you?"

   He stretched out his hand and held the pure white mask over Su Ming'an's face from a distance.

   "...Look." He was silent for a moment: "It's exactly the same."

   He put down his mask.

  The mask knocked on the table, making a crisp sound.

  In the office, there was a moment of silence.

   Ellas turned around and went to the other room. After a while, he returned with a white gas spar.

   He threw the stone to Su Mingan: "Hold it."

  Su Mingan held it in the palm of his hand.

   After a while, Su Mingan spread out his hand, and the stone lay quietly in his palm, his appearance unchanged.

The    detection stone could not detect his identity as a soul clan, which is something Su Mingan already knew.

   Ellas put his hand by the desk and seemed to be lost in thought.

"Su Rin. You are the descendant of Lord Su Rin, I used to trust you... No matter how strange your whereabouts, whether you have been to the city of the soul clan or not." He said: "... But I can't figure it out, you How did he control the entire soul clan? That guy from Sevia will never succumb to a human being."

  “…”

   "...Unless." Ellas turned his head: "You are the child of the soul clan and human, right?"

  Su Mingan was stunned.

   He seemed to have heard a very likely answer.

   It is not detected by the detection stone, does not need to eat human souls, has the smell of humans, but can smell the smell of souls...

   The characteristics of the two races are strangely combined in him.

   He suddenly remembered the figure of Cassan leaving with Xiaona on his back that night.

  …It turns out that there is a combination of these two races.

   "Su Rin." Ellas looked at him: "I don't care how ambitious you are... I don't care why you return to Praia, what are you fighting for..."

   "As long as you have a heart for mankind, help mankind, and have nothing to do with the soul race, I can trust you. I can give you contribution points and give you the power to act freely.

"Because of the lack of stability in Praia, Praia needs a strong warrior like you, and you have indeed made a great contribution to the task of Huajie, and solved the rats living in the gutter extremely well. So I trust you, I need You, I can give you the rewards and honors you want.

"but now-"

   He withdrew his hand and put his hand on the pistol on his waist: "...you can't explain how you cracked that barrier. I also... can't tolerate a leader of a soul clan living in a soul hunting area.

"so now,

   "I don't trust you anymore, Su Rin."

  …

   Ellas drew his gun and aimed it at Su Mingan.

   The regret in his eyes was particularly obvious.

   "Su Rin, leave Praia, or die here, for your grandfather's sake, make a choice." He said.

   The two S-rank Soul Hunters beside him turned around at the same time, drew their swords, the swords shone with light, and the sword tips lined up beside Su Mingan.

   "It's a pity, my colleague." S-rank Soul Hunter Christie said softly.

   "..." S-rank Soul Hunter Ed remained silent.

   And where their eyes were focused, Su Mingan raised his head.

   "Ding dong!"

The    system voice rang in his ears.

  【Because you have lost the trust of the soul hunter leader Ellas, you can't participate in the "Feast at Sea", and the perfect customs clearance · Heaven Line will fail by default. 】

  【Enter the perfect clearance Hell line. 】

  【"One thought of heaven, another thought of hell."]

  【Route hint: Use the Soul Race camp to start a war, slaughter the residents of Praia, and seize Praia. 】

  …

  Su Mingan did not draw his sword.

   He just raised his head slowly, and then, with an extremely sharp attitude, looked towards Ellas, looking directly into his eyes.

   "Elrath, before that, answer me," he said.

   Ellas raised his gun and narrowed his eyes.

   A low air pressure was brewing among them.

   "On Thirteenth Street, do soul clans exist?" Su Mingan asked.

   "..." Ellas was silent for a moment: "Exist."

   "Garde, was he killed by that soul clan?"

"…you could say so."

   "Where is Shelud now?"

   "He broke the rules of the church, you don't have to mention him again."

   "Understood." Su Ming'an said.

   He took out the photo that Garde had entrusted to him from his arms, and rubbed his fingers on the photo.

"Leave Praia, you will never return." Ellas said: "You are the descendant of Su Rin. Your grandfather has made great contributions to Praia. For his sake, I can keep you. A life."

   Under the nervous gaze of the soul hunters, Su Mingan put the photo back in his backpack, and then raised his hand.

   "You don't need to look at Su Rin's face." He said.

  …

  The heat was dizzy in front of him.

   Sitting in front of the barbecue table, Su Ming'an's fingers bent unconsciously for a moment, and then quickly let go.

"Let me tell you, I was so stupid that I ran to the southern district with those people. Really, all I picked up were junk equipment and couldn't be used at all..." Lin Yin used two pairs of chopsticks beside him. Eating meat in a pinch.

  Lu Shu was drinking tea by her side, seemingly not interested in meat.

  Su Mingan turned his head and looked at the night outside the window.

   Back to last night.

   "She Luther, let's go," he said.

   "Hey, hey, why don't you eat more?" Lin Yin shouted from behind: "Christmas Eve will be in two days, why don't you hurry up and enjoy it..."

  Su Mingan ignored her.

   He quickly walked out of the kebab shop and walked into the night in an instant.

   The next process is very similar to the previous one.

   He went into his room.

   As soon as he entered the door, he stood still and saw a dark figure walking towards him.

  …Sure enough.

   He remembered that in the last week, there was someone hiding in his room.

   His watch lit up, taking a complete picture of the approaching person.

   "...Lele?"

  Su Mingan looked at the dark girl in front of her with some surprise.

   This is Lele, the granddaughter of the old lady Garde. She had tears on her face, red eyes, and looked like she had just cried.

   "Plop" and she knelt down.

   "Please... please save my grandma."

  Su Mingan figured it out.

  Last night, Lele actually asked him for help, but he went to bed so fast that she couldn't even make a sound.

   By the next day, everything had already happened. When he opened the door, there was no one in the neighbor's house.

"My grandma, when I finished talking to you in the afternoon, she disappeared suddenly and has not come back until now." Lele choked: "I heard that there is a hidden soul clan on Thirteenth Street, it must be that soul Clan, take grandma away... or she will definitely come back..."

   "Understood." Su Ming'an said, "You wait here."

   "Wait." Lele grabbed his clothes: "Take me with you."

"unnecessary."

   "I'm pretty good, I can help you."

"unnecessary."

  Su Mingan pushed her away and opened the door.

   The slanting moonlight poured into it, and the Knight of Light, bathed in the moonlight, was standing quietly at the door.

   Xie Lude glanced at the scene in the house, but did not show any surprise.

   "Light... Knight of Light..." Lele shut up for a moment.

   Facing Lele with a scared look, Xie Lude did not show the side of a gentleman.

   He ignored Lele and looked at Su Mingan.

   "Captain." He said, "Go back to sleep, just leave this to me."

   "Tell me all the information you know." Su Mingan said.

   "Captain, you don't have to worry about this kind of thing." Xie Lude advised.

   "Xie Lude." Su Ming'an stared at him: "I ordered you in the name of the captain - tell me all the information you know. As a knight in the cloud church, you shouldn't hide anything about it."

   She Luther tilted his head slightly.

   "Since that's the case... then you come with me." He said.
