Infinite Terror: This Middle Continent is Rebellious

Chapter 246 Noose: Are you the mastermind behind this?

In the director's office, the wooden door was wide open, and the screen that was used to show the authority of the top management had become tattered. Several elderly people were lying on the ground covered in blood.

As the flame of life dies out, the flesh and blood of the old people gradually turn into distinct lines and eventually disappear.

"This...what's going on? Are all the senior executives in the Directorate drawn?"

A drop of cold sweat slid down Luosuo's cheek.

After the Directorate issued four notices and killed the senior executives under his control, he rushed to the Directorate.

Because he didn't understand how the directorate knew that the three senior executives were his people, and he couldn't figure out when the directorate had the courage to kill three senior executives at once.

It was not until he entered the directorate and took action against the remaining three senior executives that he realized that all the senior executives in the directorate were imposters!

Although they look the same, their behavior patterns are no different from before.

However, without cursed energy, without techniques, and without memories, after being killed, it actually turned into lines drawn with a pen!
It was obvious that someone had killed all the top brass before today and created a few puppets using a special technique.

"When did it all start? When exactly was the Directorate replaced?"

A fear of the unknown arose in Noose's heart.

Are the high-level people he's working with real or fake? Has his plan so far been carried out under someone else's surveillance?

"You might as well take a guess."

A man's voice sounded from behind the noose.

Noose’s answer is... a spinning kick!

Noose used cursed power to strengthen his body, jumped up, spun his body in mid-air, and kicked out fiercely with his legs.

The man behind him stretched out his right hand and grabbed the noose's calf with a lightning-fast palm. The brutal force fixed the noose's body in mid-air.

Just as he was about to kick out his other thigh, he suddenly felt a strong energy injected into his palm from the hand holding his calf, as if he had been struck by lightning. His body trembled and his attack stagnated. The man loosened his palm and immediately kicked him in the waist.

The noose flew out and crashed through the wall of the general office.

He got up and looked forward. When he saw the man who suddenly appeared, his pupils shrank and a look of shock flashed in his eyes.

"Wen... Lie? How could this happen...? Are you... really Wen Lie?"

Xu Suo didn't want to believe what he saw.

The man who suddenly appeared looked exactly like Wen Lie, who was sealed by Li Mei using the Prison Gate a few hours ago.

Yumenjiang was thrown into the trench, and Yumenjiang·li was also thrown to a place he didn't even know. The sorcerer who possessed the angel spell was still in the barrier of death and rebirth, and it was impossible for the person in front of him to appear in front of him!

"Of course, you've seen me, haven't you?"

Wen Lie walked towards the noose, but his slow steps were as fast as lightning, and he was in front of the noose in an instant. The confusion of time and distance made the noose's brain feel dizzy.

Resisting the discomfort in his brain, Noose quickly released the curse spirit to block Wen Lie from the front.

"Oh!"

The curse spirit exploded the moment it appeared, and Wen Lie's palm passed through the curse spirit's body and grabbed the noose's throat.

Noose raised his left arm and hit Wen Lie's palm, and raised his right hand to cut Wen Lie's wrist.

His movements were extremely smooth and he displayed a very high level of physical skills. In this world, there were few who could surpass him in physical skills.

Although he lost the first round, Xu Suo didn't think he would be defeated so easily.

However, the one before him was a fourth-tier warrior specializing in combat, whose melee abilities far surpassed those of the sorcerers of this world. Gojo Satoru had only taken advantage of this situation by relying on his lack of skill. Close combat without using abilities would have required the likes of Heaven and Tyrant to be brought into play.

Wen Lie's arm shook slightly, his five fingers clenched into a ball, and poked the noose's wrist like a bird's beak. A golden lightning shot out from his fingertips, making the noose's arm numb and unable to control it for a while.

Immediately afterwards, Wen Lie twisted his wrist and opened his palm to slap down.

The two men's palms slapped together like players celebrating victory on the basketball court. Lasso's chopped hand knife was hit from the side, and his arm was raised, with his palms red.

Just like teaching a child a lesson, Wen Lie used the fourth-level subtle technique to easily break the resistance of the noose.

The noose retreated hastily and quickly released the curse spirit to stop Wen Lie.

From a level 2 cursed spirit with only physical strength to a level 1 cursed spirit with spells, Noose manipulates the cursed spirits to combine and create a special forces team to serve as his hands and feet to prevent Wen Lie from getting close.

Wen Lie pressed forward step by step, and the cursed spirits summoned by Noose dissipated in groups. The surprise attack launched by Noose himself under the cover of the cursed spirits could not cause any trouble to Wen Lie.

In just a moment, hundreds of cursed spirits were killed. Wen Lie crossed the distance between the two sides, rushed in front of Lu Suo, grabbed his forehead, and pressed him to the ground. The hard back of his head smashed a big hole in the ground. The powerful force generated made Lu Suo feel like his brain was about to shake out of his head.

Wen Lie released the noose from his forehead, stood in front of him, and said slowly, "Do you think I'm fake, noose?"

Noose lay on the ground, feeling the temperature of the floor with the back of his head, and his calmed brain began to think.

"No, you are indeed real. In this world, apart from you, Gojo Satoru, and Ryomen Sukuna, no one can defeat me so easily."

The hopeless mentality disappeared from Luosuo's heart, and he finally faced the reality.

The man in front of him was Wen Lie. Although no one knew how he escaped from the seal of the Prison Gate, but... the situation was already very clear.

The reason they were able to seal Wen Lie was not because their plan was foolproof, but because Wen Lie actively cooperated with them and because Wen Lie had already prepared means to break the seal.

"I see. Was this all your plan from the very beginning? Using myself as bait... No, it's not that simple. You've always known about my existence..."

A look of realization appeared on Nozomi's face.

He gradually sorted out his thoughts.

It's not the so-called using yourself as bait to lure out the enemy. It's not that noble.

"Death Rebirth, you all knew my purpose long ago and secretly assisted me in completing this plan. Ryomen Sukuna defeated Gojo Satoru, Rimei sealed you, and I captured Tengen. All of this was done with your connivance!"

Wen Lie knew his name, knew who his people were in the upper echelons, knew that he controlled the Kamo family, and even knew that he was going to use the Yumenjiang area. He knew every step of his plan.

This person knows him better than anyone else!
With so much information available, if Wen Lie really became his enemy, his plan would never succeed.

But his plan was completed due to the sabotage of Wen Lie and the Zhongzhou team?
It is obvious that the Zhongzhou team is not on the side of the sorcerer world at all. They seem to be on the side of the sorcerers, but in fact they have been secretly advancing his plan.

The current state of the curse world is due to the contribution of the Central Plains team.

Wen Lie said with a smile: "Now that you know, why don't you thank me."

After receiving Wen Lie's affirmation, cold sweat broke out on Luo Suo's back. When was his identity exposed? When was his plan leaked? How much of his plan had been leaked?
Noose thought quickly, but after searching through his memory, he could not find any flaws.

That's why it's so terrifying. When he was unaware, a big hand was controlling his actions. Until the mastermind behind the scenes came forward, he didn't realize that his past had been influenced by an invisible big hand.

Nozomi's face turned pale and blue, and he lay on the ground without getting up. He asked Wen Lie directly, "What is your purpose? Do you want to occupy the Japanese sorcery world?"

Using the people in the painting to replace the senior executives of the directorate is such an act that it is impossible not to make people suspicious.

These people from the Zhongzhou team planned to use him to rule the world of magic, and then use their own puppets to manage the general department.

"That's part of the purpose."

Wen Lie did not deny it.

If Kusakabe and Mingming can survive to the end and become the new senior management, why can't their Zhongzhou team?
In the world of Jujutsu Kaisen, although there are not many treasures, the extraordinary system is not mature, and strength depends entirely on bloodline, it is not completely useless for the Zhongzhou team.

For example, the 2A-level advanced summoning necromancer spell materials.

Summoning ghosts, so-called ghosts, aren't they just cursed spirits? Cursed spirits with spells and domains can be of some use even on a fourth-level battlefield.

At that time, you only need to occupy a high position in the world of curses, and you can capture as many curse spirits as you want.

"Another purpose is that I also want to see what kind of cursed spirit will be born after Tianyuan and 100 million humans assimilate."

Simply put, Wen Lie hopes to give birth to a great curse spirit.

On the one hand, the Great Curse Spirit is definitely a high-level side story.

On the other hand, Wen Lie really wanted to know what the big curse spirit that Jiji Xiaoxiao had been preparing for for so long looked like.

"Do you know this too?"

Luosuo was secretly shocked, but at the same time he felt relieved, and a smile appeared on his face.

Wow, this is also a war maniac.

In order to meet a powerful opponent, he is willing to sacrifice 100 million humans.

Xu Suo didn't think Wen Lie was lying, because with Wen Lie's connivance, he had gathered all the conditions for the birth of the Great Curse Spirit.

At this point, there was no point in Wen Lie deceiving him.

Xu Suo said sincerely, "Haha, I'm so happy. I didn't expect that we were actually on the same path. In that case, let's help each other. Your Excellency Wen Lie, I will continue to complete the Tianyuan assimilation plan. Please continue to support my plan as usual."

As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand towards Wen Lie.

"That's why I came."

Wen Lie opened a lollipop and stuffed the grape-flavored candy into his mouth, ignoring the arm that Luo Suo extended to show his friendship.

Xu Suo did not feel embarrassed, or rather, Wen Lie's attitude was just right for him.

It was not until this time that Xu Suo was completely sure that Wen Lie had no ill will towards him now.

Luo Suo pressed himself against the floor, climbed to his feet, and said calmly, "Sir Wen Lie, my allies are helping another group of allies to eliminate your companions. Do you need me to take care of them? With you as my helper, those so-called allies don't need me anymore."

Wen Lie pulled out his lollipop and said calmly, "That's unnecessary. Find them something to do. Not everyone on the Zhongzhou team supports the creation of a great cursed spirit. Those who support the idea of ​​merging 100 million non-magicians with Tianyuan to create a 100 million-strong collective of cursed power will always be in the minority."

"I see!"

Noose suddenly understood.

No wonder. With Wen Lie's strength, he didn't need to be the mastermind. If Wen Lie had directly helped, his plan would have been completed long ago.

It turned out that Wen Lie was also concerned about his companions' thoughts, so he could only transform into an invisible big hand and control everything from the dark.

Wen Lie asked, "What were you going to do before?"

Nozomi thought for a moment before saying, "Investigate the abnormalities in the General Office, and then stop the pursuers from the Curse Realm for my allies."

Wen Lie snapped his fingers and said calmly, "Then continue. I'll lend you a hand. After defeating the pursuers from the Curse World, we have other work to do."

Nozomi asked in confusion, "Other jobs? What are those?"

Wen Lie smiled and said, "Activate the magical energy within the barrier. The number of people participating in the Death Parade is a little too small. With 10 barriers, we should be able to send at least 10 people through them, right? Optimizing magical energy is a major event for all of humanity. Shouldn't other countries be invited to attend the ceremony?"

Nozomi was surprised and said, "You are a little too extreme."

10 troops? Xu Suo went to the White House some time ago and only asked for 800 soldiers from the US President.

"Don't be so petty. You're already planning a human instrumentation project in Japan. What do these 10 people mean to you?"

Wen Lie shook his head.

In other words, times have changed. Even if he controls the presidents of various countries, he cannot allow too many soldiers to set foot on the land of other countries. Otherwise, he will have to bring in another million soldiers.

After all, time is too tight.

There are still 27 days before they return to the main god space.

If you want to get more bonus points and side plots within 27 days, you need to gather more cursed power in Tokyo.

Then, let more cursed spirits be born.

Wen Lie can already foresee the future heyday of cursed spirits.

If nothing unexpected happens, he will be able to get at least 50,000 reward points from this horror movie.

"Could there be some misunderstanding? Senior Anbian, how could they betray me?"

"The General Administration has already produced evidence. Kishibe and Ninoyu have indeed escaped. If this was truly a misunderstanding, why would they flee?"

"It could also be a frame-up. After all, they're the General Directorate, so it's no surprise they could do anything. But... the General Directorate has already issued the mission, so we have to capture Yusuke Kishibe and the others."

……

Atsuya Kusakabe, Kento Nanami, Meimei, Takuma Ino, Aoi Todou...a pursuit team composed of level 2 sorcerers and level 1 sorcerers is on the way to pursue the Tokai team.

Because of the image that the East Sea team had spent a year cultivating, most of the sorcerers responsible for hunting them were unwilling to believe that the East Sea team had really betrayed them.

The disputes on the road, coupled with the need to resolve the cursed spirits encountered along the way, have led to the East China team fighting the Central Plains team fiercely, and they are still some distance away from the battlefield.
