"The trace of magic power belonging to a third party is left by humans..."

Even with a somewhat haggard pale complexion, it couldn't hide the confident gleam in his eyes. Facing the people in the ruins, Bai Muqing, who was standing on top of the rubble, turned around and said every word. He paused and said, "The wild dog is right, that guy is not a witch, but a human being."

"How do you know?" Although it's not clear what Bai Muqing did just now, Paracles is more willing to trust the witch's senses than human tricks. There is a dissatisfaction visible to the naked eye on her small face, and her brows are tightly frowned. , asked aggressively: "Even Gabriel and I can't distinguish things, how can you be so sure?"

"Just with my technique..." There was still a strange gleam in his eyes, Bai Muqing looked around and explained with a calm expression: "'Opening the Eye of the Sky' is a very ancient technique, which has been inherited in the same line from the town magic division. , has extremely strict requirements on bloodlines and talents, after using this technique, I can directly see the traces of magic power remaining here with the naked eye..."

"Under normal circumstances, in the field of vision behind the open eye, objects without magic power will turn gray, while traces of magic power naturally spilled will appear in different shades of white. The dark color is the color of a witch, and the light color is a human being. Before the magic power dissipates completely, no matter how the witch destroys the traces of her own magic power, even if she changes the color of the traces of magic power left by herself, she cannot lighten the color itself, just like humans cannot deepen the color left by themselves... "

After a slight pause, Bai Muqing continued: "Of course, there are exceptions. Not all the traces of magic power naturally left by witches are white. Under very special circumstances, the magic power naturally overflowed by different witches may also show completely different The color, for example, the trace left by the angel in the ruins is a very dazzling golden yellow, relatively speaking, the trace left by the monk here is much more transparent and thinner."

"The reason why you think the attacker is a mortal is because the traces left by the attacker are equally thin." Although he couldn't see the world in Bai Muqing's eyes, it didn't prevent Gabriel from understanding Bai Muqing's deduction.

"That's right, very thin green, close to fluorescent green, this is absolutely impossible to be the magic trace left by the witch..." First nodded, then nodded slightly, Bai Muqing frowned slightly, as if talking to herself He murmured softly: "However... the traces of human magic power will appear green, which is really unheard of. After all, under the sky eye technique, human magic power should generally be close to transparent white, and it is similar to that of the witch. Different, although experienced human warlocks can also destroy their own magic traces, but the color itself is very difficult to change, which not only requires very high and extraordinary attainments, but also is meaningless..."

Speaking of this, Bai Muqing slightly raised his eyebrows, and said with some surprise: "That is to say, is this the original color?"

"Okay, at least the first puzzle has been solved, thanks to the mysterious power from the ancient east..." Clapping his hands lightly, drawing everyone's attention to himself, Mikkelsen first teased Bai Muqing Then he raised his eyebrows lightly and said: "It's just that if the attacker is really a human, then we have to face the most troublesome problem. Excuse me, a human, or maybe a person who can use How did the human beings with the spells and two or three humans who didn't use the spells subdue and hijack a church angel and a monk from the purge army in a very short period of time?"

"Subdise that cockroach from the church first, and then use that cockroach to force the angel to submit." Paracles said without thinking as if a light bulb was on in her little head.

"It's absolutely impossible..." Gabriel directly denied Paracles' conjecture, and said with a solemn expression: "First of all, the members of the purge force are not ordinary people, they are all warriors selected from thousands of miles, not only are they devout, And powerful, if measured by the standards of mortal mages, they are the best among them, and they will never be easily subdued..."

After a slight pause, Gabriel said to Paracles in a deep voice, "Secondly, I would like to ask you a question. If an A-level witch tried to kidnap Mr. Li in front of you, what would you do?"

"Then she's dead..." Without any hesitation, Paracles replied decisively: "I can guarantee that the moment she makes a move, I can beat her head to pieces... "

Speaking of this, Paracles froze slightly, and suddenly froze in place.

Yes, the gap between a witch and a mortal is not only a gap in strength, but also includes many factors such as physical strength and reaction speed, that is to say, as long as the church bird is not given by the halo above After roasting his head, it is absolutely impossible to allow his fellow travelers to be robbed by a few cockroaches who can do some tricks...

But if so, why...

After some entanglement, Paracles decisively chose to give up thinking, and at the same time cast her eyes on Li Yexing who was standing not far away. From the very beginning, Li Yexing kept silent and frowned all the time, as if Thinking about something.

"Mr. Li, what do you think about the situation in front of you?" Gabriel turned his head and said softly after noticing Li Yexing like Paracles, "Whether it's thoughts or troubles, We can talk about it and listen to it, which may help broaden our thinking.”

On the other side, when Gabriel interrupted his thoughts, Li Yexing raised his head subconsciously, and when he saw all the people around him looking at him, he considered for a few seconds, frowned slightly and said: "From the beginning, I have I've been thinking about a question, if the witch dies, she won't leave a body behind, so is that angel already dead?"

"No, at least not here..." Shaking his head lightly, Gabriel said with a firm expression on his face, "If there is an apostle of the Lord who has returned to the embrace of our Lord here, I will definitely be able to do so here." I can feel the corresponding breath here."

"That is to say, he didn't die, and was kidnapped together with that monk..." Facing Gabriel's gaze, Li Yexing asked blankly, "Why?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present showed doubts and looked a little puzzled, but Mikkelsen was slightly startled and frowned, as if he had suddenly noticed something.

"The purpose of the other party is not to kill people. Otherwise, the corpse will definitely be left here and transported away. There is no need..." On the other side, seeing that most people still did not realize the key core of the problem, Li Yexing said in a deep voice. Said: "Since it is not murder, but kidnapping, then there must be a purpose, either an interrogation, or some demands, such as asking for money, such as exchanging hostages, considering that the attacker is likely to be a local Armed, and possibly, for beheading video..."

Speaking of this, Li Yexing paused for a moment, and then said indifferently: "Considering that the attack took place two days ago and no one declared responsibility, I tend to think that these two people were tied up for their own use. "

It was enough to analyze it here, and as Li Yexing finished speaking, everyone present suddenly realized.

That's right, the core of hijacking is to seek profit. This kind of benefit either comes from the hijacked person himself, or from the forces behind the hijacked person. Since no one has declared responsibility for the attack so far, then the other party The target must be the pair of angels and monks themselves!

Now, here comes the question, leaving aside the monk, what did the attacker want an angel for?

Looking at the people present who were lost in thought again, Li Yexing didn't speak, but turned around silently, shifting his gaze to the cross on the ruins.

Indeed, Li Yexing knew nothing about occultism, so he couldn't think about things like Bai Muqing, Mikkelsen, and the witches present. The perspective focuses on the human being, and sees the essence hidden in the fog.

As for why tie an angel...

Reminiscent of the previous Tokyo incident, the swollen daughter who claimed to be a scholar, and the fate that should have been waiting for Paracles and Chu Shiyao, Li Yexing had some unpleasant guesses in his heart.

Maybe it's because it's useful.

Chapter-19. Talking under the stars

When everyone returned to Assad Air Force Base and had dinner in the cafeteria of the Air Force Base, it was already seven o'clock in the evening. When they looked up, they could see the bright starry sky covering the hot land of the Middle East.

Although looking at the stars is a very meaningless thing, to be honest, Li Yexing doesn't hate looking at the stars. In his previous life, he used to look up at the starry sky often, wearing a bulletproof vest, holding his gun, lying in a disheveled state. Behind the earth wall with bullet holes, at that time, he always felt that the stars in the sky were very similar to the bullet holes on the wall. They were densely packed. If one fell, it might kill many people.

Now, standing outside the barracks of the soldiers of country A, looking up at the same starry sky again, Li Yexing felt many completely different feelings in his heart. He felt that the night sky was like a huge black canvas, and on the canvas, They are all his wives.

The brightest, brightest and most arrogant, like Paracles...

The light next to it is slightly softer, but also very bright, like incense...

The small one on the east side looks very good, like Shi Yao...

Further to the east, there is another one, very bright, but lonely, like Meiji...

Hmm... Come on, Mu Qing, let me look for it and see which one looks more like you...

After a while, Li Yexing found a star in the night sky emitting a faint cold light as he wished. Maybe it wasn't the most suitable star among thousands of stars, but Li Yexing still stubbornly regarded it as Bai Muqing.

After some self-entertainment, Li Yexing lowered his head expressionlessly, and looked at the apron supporting the transport helicopter, as well as the soldiers of country A stationed in the distance.

I'm so bored, I just wanted to take advantage of the darkness to come out to blow a cool breeze, but it turned out to be lonely, obviously Paracles and Mu Qing were arguing in the office, plus the dirty nun is a waste, I don't know if the intelligence summary I did with Mikkelsen can continue, but Gabriel is pitiful, his character is like a rock, and he probably will be quarreled by Paracles this time. It exploded.

Just when Li Yexing couldn't help imagining the funny scene of Gabriel with a stern face, but was sandwiched between Paracles and Bai Muqing, so that his brows kept twitching, suddenly, a burst of footsteps The sound came from not far away, and then, a figure in a nun's uniform stepped through the lights and stopped silently beside Li Yexing.

Oh, it seems that I can't stand it anymore.

The corners of his mouth raised slightly uncontrollably, but he felt that he seemed a little tasteless. Sensing the sight from his side, Li Yexing turned his head away, as a cover-up, and lit a cigarette for himself by the way.

"Mr. Li, as a representative of the relevant departments of the Celestial Dynasty, not only did you not stay in the office, but you even ran into a small corner where there was no one..." Despite the choking smell of white mist drifting over the tip of the nose, Gabriel didn't change his face, and said in a serious tone: "Forgive me, this is a crime of laziness, and it is displeasing to my lord."

"Aren't you the same?" Li Yexing asked Gabriel with a cigarette in his mouth as he glanced at Gabriel from the corner of his eye.

"Actually, my job is to pass on the teachings of my lord, and to wield my sword to carry out the will of my lord..." There was a slight embarrassment on Qiao's face, and Gabriel struggled and said, "As for, It involves fields outside of my mission... Sorry, I'm really not good at it, and I can't help much."

"Me too..." With white mist spewing from his nostrils, Li Yexing said indifferently: "I have thought about everything I can think of, I have said everything that should be said, and the rest, the summary of information, is theirs." Work, after all, I am not a clerical worker."

As Li Yexing's words fell, the shadows outside the barracks fell into silent silence.

"I want to admit that your reputation is not in vain..." After some time, Gabriel who was standing by the side suddenly said, "There is no doubt that as a mortal, you are very powerful, and you also have With a calm mind and a keen sense of smell that are enough to match this strength, a person like you, no matter where you are, is destined to be as dazzling as a morning star..."

Speaking of this, Gabriel turned his head and said seriously: "No wonder, even an existence as arrogant and unyielding as her is willing to follow you."

The burnt ash fell from the cigarette butt, and Li Yexing subconsciously raised his eyebrows.

"No matter it is a powerful force, or the desperate situation of death, neither can make the King of the Demon God surrender..." Looking up at the starry sky, Gabriel said to himself: "No matter what situation you are in, dare to Showing her sharp fangs, insulting our faith with the harshest laughter and the most filthy blasphemy, she has been doing this for hundreds of years, so when I learned that she had made a contract with mortals, I was shocked I am so shocked, I can't imagine what kind of evil devil it is that can make her, who hates all living beings, willingly submit."

"So, am I a devil?" Turning his head to look at the angel beside him, Li Yexing was aroused by Gabriel's evaluation of himself.

"Sorry, Mr. Li, I can't see through you, or rather, I can't understand you, because I can't catch anything from your eyes except for her, or for them..." The other side , Facing Li Yexing's eyes, Gabriel said with a serious expression: "Whether it's money or power, all people are entangled in various desires, even the most devout believers are not immune, but you seem to be different, You are special..."

After a slight pause, Gabriel shook his head lightly and said, "No, to be precise, you are weird. In my opinion, you are more like a saint in the religious sense than a mortal. A pure empty shell, as if born to be filled by them."

"It doesn't sound bad." Li Yexing said softly, flicking the cigarette ash between his fingers.

"Just like the right knife is destined to fit into the right scabbard, even she can hide her edge..." There was a bit of complexity in the moonstone-like eyes, and Gabriel sighed softly He said in one breath: "Perhaps, they are all wrong. The content on the St. Malachi parchment scroll is not the prophecy of the devil, but the revelation of our Lord."

"So, do you still want to kill Paracles?" Li Yexing asked softly, throwing away the cigarette butt.

"It doesn't depend on me, it depends on her, even on you..." Looking at Li Yexing, Gabriel said solemnly: "My mission has never changed from beginning to end, and that is to eradicate For the evil of the world."

"She has killed many people..." Hearing Gabriel's overtones, Li Yexing couldn't help but wonder: "That's it, if you let her go, will it violate your justice?"

"Yes, the guilty person must finally atone for his sins in pain. If the sinner can die well, then he will be sorry for all the dead who were buried in the hands of the sinner..." Although he nodded firmly, Yue Chang There was a bit of confusion in the stone-like eyes. Facing Li Yexing's gaze, Gabriel said softly: "However, if we punish a sinner who no longer endangers the world, it means that more people will be involved. Burying the innocents with him means creating a brand new spiral of revenge with his own hands, so... I can hardly fail to doubt whether this so-called justice, which is justice for the sake of justice, can still be called justice..."

Speaking of this, Gabriel couldn't help asking softly: "Mr. Li, what do you think? Do you think this kind of justice can still be called justice?"

"I don't know..." I always feel that the so-called justice is just something to deceive children, Li Yexing said with a blank face: "I only know that if they are happy, I will be happy, and if I am happy, it is justice."

"Are I and the people around me my whole world?" Nodding thoughtfully, Gabriel frowned slightly and said, "Indeed, personal justice is also justice, Mr. Li, you Your answer is very personal."

Unexpectedly, he could get approval from Gabriel's mouth. For a while, Li Yexing only felt a little inexplicable mood, and with this inexplicable subtlety, there was also an inexplicable sense of guilt.

Speaking of which, this guy should also be considered a family member of the victim in this case, right?

Should I tell her about the angel's speculation?

Chapter-20. Eloquent

In the end, Li Yexing chose to remain silent, hiding his guess in his heart.

It’s not that you can’t say it, it’s just that it’s unnecessary. After all, it’s still in the stage of blinding your eyes, and you don’t have any decent clues at hand. Putting forward such unfounded guesses will not only fail to change the status quo, but may also give Gabriel Add blockage.

Considering that he was cooperating with the Church of the Holy Cross, and Gabriel was a high-level combat force who could match or even surpass Paracles, Li Yexing felt that he should be more calm and cautious in his words and deeds.

Lighted a cigarette for himself again, and slowly burned it in silence. After the cigarette butt that was thrown away was extinguished, Li Yexing straightened up and stepped into the barracks without a word, despite having nothing to do. Gabriel followed behind him.

Walking through the bright corridor, passing by a few soldiers from country A who were hurrying, Li Yexing and Gabriel returned to the office one after the other. Under the white light, Paracles was crossing her legs, sitting on the desk, flipping through the adult magazines she got from nowhere, and Sister Klass was occupying Gabriel. Sitting next to Paracles, flipping an old book with small prints and a thick cover in his hands, but a pair of eyes stared at Paracles's hands from time to time.

Unlike Paracles, who had nothing to do, and Sister Krass, who was openly dereliction of duty, at this moment, Bai Muqing, who was sitting opposite Paracles, was frowning slightly, raised her hands, and tapped the pad in front of her intently. screen, while Mikkelsen, who was standing not far from her, was supporting the desktop with one hand, gently rubbing Wendigo's little head with the other, looking back and forth between the computer screen and the printer that kept spewing out paper documents circulation.

On one side are people who work hard, while on the other side are people who have nothing to do. The investigation team formed by the three parties shows two completely different states in the same office, and the desk is still used as the boundary. It can be said that there is a clear distinction.

"Sister Klass, you can read the Holy Book anytime, anywhere, in any way you like..." Finally, he couldn't bear Sister Klass's attitude towards work, Gabriel frowned and said with a serious expression : "However, if you came here just to read the Holy Scriptures, then I can only suggest that you return to the Holy Land as soon as possible, instead of staying here to waste each other's time."

"Please don't say that, Lord Gabriel..." Slowly closing the "Holy Book" in her hand, her gray eyes revealed grievances, meeting Gabriel's gaze, Sister Klass said innocently : "I swear in the name of the Lord, I really hope to be able to help everyone here, but... as you can see, I did not go to Baghdad with everyone here this afternoon, and reasoning and intelligence collection are indeed not mine. Strengths, right now, the only thing I can do is pray, pray for everyone, pray that everyone can make progress as soon as possible, and also pray that the comrades who are uncertain of life and death can return safely."

"Since you are not good at anything, why do you still apply to the cardinals to come here?" Gabriel asked in a deep voice, completely ignoring Sister Klass.

"Because in the whole church, only Mr. Li and I have a fairly close relationship..." Blinking at Gabriel, Sister Klass seemed to be stating some irrefutable facts, and said with a face full of reason : "Because of Lord Beelzebub, we had some unpleasant experiences with Mr. Li. This time we acted together, and the accompanying angel happened to be you who has always had conflicts with Lord Beelzebub. If you say , you and Mr. Li had a disagreement because of Lord Beelzebub, may I ask, who will ensure that this group can continue to operate stably?"

"This..." Hearing Sister Klass' explanation, Gabriel hesitated slightly, because no matter whether it was the meeting with Li Yexing or the meeting with Paracles before, there was no smell of gunpowder, so she subconsciously ignored the problem.

"Of course, a mistake is a mistake, and any excuse should not be a reason for laziness. Therefore, I agree with the teachings of Lord Gabriel from the bottom of my heart..." On the other side, without giving Gabriel a chance to breathe, Sister Klass changed the subject, and asked sincerely, "If possible, can Lord Gabriel offer some insights into the current situation? In order to be able to help, I, who is dull, urgently need your profound wisdom to guide me. .”

Immediately, Gabriel was completely dumbfounded. If she could come up with some useful insights, she wouldn't run out with Li Yexing to enjoy the cold wind.

"Heh..." Seeing Gabriel's embarrassment, Paracles couldn't help laughing, but Li Yexing, who was standing by, just took a deep look at Sister Klass, and then turned away Turning around, she went straight to Bai Muqing's back.

"What's this?" After a moment of silence, Li Yexing asked in a low voice as he and Bai Muqing stared at the densely packed small black characters on the screen of the Pad.

"On the left is the summary of intelligence here, mainly about the status of the explosion site and other work progress, as well as unresolved issues and the focus of the next investigation. These will be sent back to the country later, and sent out through their channels. Share..." Fingers slowly slid the pad screen, Bai Muqing didn't look up, and said with a calm expression: "The right is what you want, the information about the Holy Crescent Alliance front has just been sent from China..."

Speaking of this, Bai Muqing shook his head lightly and said: "I took a quick look, and most of the intelligence content is focused on the border areas of our country. In other words, it doesn't have much reference value for the situation we are facing now. Aware of this problem, we need to refer to the information provided by country A, after all, they have been fighting terrorism here for more than ten years and are relatively familiar with the regional situation."

"Indeed, we obviously have a more detailed understanding of the Holy Crescent Alliance front in Iraq..." The thick paper hit the table, and Mikkelsen, who was guarding the printer, turned around, With a slight smile on his face, he said: "At the end of the dinner just now, I went to the office of the superior officer and got dozens of pages of materials from there. Then, the domestic side sent me another I have collected a lot of information, some of which are our own, and some are provided by the CIA. Even after preliminary screening, it still adds up to hundreds of pages..."

With that said, Mikkelsen handed the paper materials in his hand to Li Yexing, and said to Li Yexing with a chuckle, "Come and see, Mr. Li."

"Show me, is it okay?" Li Yexing couldn't help asking curiously after taking the information provided by the Shuicheng base, the CIA, and the military of country A.

"Since it will be handed over to me, it means that there is nothing in it that you cannot know. Don't underestimate those big people, they are smart..." Shaking his head lightly, the corners of Mikkelsen's lips curled up slightly Said: "What's more, although this is our site, I have to admit that you who solved the Tokyo incident with your own hands seem to be about to become our leader. Even the Shuicheng base has given you a very high level of respect. expect."

Anyone can say nice things, but not everyone can do useful things. Li Yexing felt a little flattered by the unusually rich information in his hand. After all, this time, the people of country A gave him enough face.

Chapter-21. Business closed loop

According to Li Yexing's expectation, the domestic side is limited by the difficulty of overseas intelligence work on the relevant information on the Holy Crescent Alliance front, so it is certainly not possible to provide much. It is absolutely impossible to provide information easily. In other words, the final amount of information will be on paper, and there will only be dozens of pages at most. It is enough to take a quick glance and refine the key information.

However, to Li Yexing's surprise, this time, the people of Country A were very generous, even a little too generous. Area 51 did not know what method they used to force the CIA and the military to do bloodletting with him.

He dragged a wooden chair from the corner of the room, and sat directly at the junction of two rows of desks. Li Yexing's randomly chosen position was like a real office boss. After the marks left by Mori were divided into the military, CIA, and Shuicheng base in turn, he gave priority to intelligence from the military.

Slightly different from what Li Yexing thought, although the military's intelligence mainly focuses on the combat records of various military operations, most of the content is the details of the battles between the Iraqi federal government forces and the Holy Crescent Alliance front after 2015. Arriving at the location, from the staffing and weaponry, it can be seen from the lines that the military of country A is adjusting the training plan for the Iraqi federal army through the assessment of various operations, and, from the information on paper, These adjustments have been effective. With the training and assistance of country A, within a few years, the living space of the Holy Crescent Alliance front in Iraq has been repeatedly compressed. Until today, it can only operate in remote areas near the Iraqi border.

In addition, the intelligence from the military of country A also analyzed the personnel and economic situation of the Holy Crescent Alliance front. In recent years, it has been difficult to hide the decline on the frontal battlefield, but its personnel reserves and capital supply are still quite sufficient, because they can receive donations from all over the world, they can receive assistance from certain anti-A forces, and they can sell drugs in the controlled area. It can also force people in the controlled area to plant special economic crops, and then deliver medicines to the world.

As for how a Middle Eastern armed force that has been surrounded by people from country A for so many years transports medicines to the world and ensures smooth sales?The military’s intelligence did not name them, but only vaguely stated: Very few personnel in some intelligence agencies of country A may have played a very critical role in the sales channels of the Holy Crescent Alliance front for their own or group interests. .

Therefore, the battle between the Iraqi federal government forces and the Holy Crescent Alliance front can also be regarded as a local force jointly funded and trained by the government of country A and the military, and a drug secretly supported by the intelligence organization serving the government of country A A battle between sales?

Picking out a few pages from the military intelligence and putting them aside, Li Yexing flipped through the information provided by the CIA with a delicate mood.

Different from military intelligence, the information provided by the CIA is more objective in terms of narrative, but also has a more extreme macro and a more extreme micro. The intelligence points out that the distribution of the Holy Crescent Alliance front is not limited to In the Middle East, along with the influx of refugees caused by perennial wars, a considerable number of them have mixed into European countries to fund wars in the Middle East by raising funds and spreading extremist ideas in developed countries.

That's right, the CIA intelligence spent a huge amount of words explaining in detail the capital operation between the Holy Crescent Alliance front and various European charitable funds and NGOs, as if it regarded this as the main source of income for the Holy Crescent Alliance front , As for the issue of medicines, they just briefly mentioned it and briefly mentioned it. In addition, the intelligence also pointed out that during the battle with the Holy Crescent Alliance front, the Iraqi federal government forces seized a large number of A-type equipment, including even more advanced equipment. individual combat missiles.

Of course, the CIA obviously has its own understanding of this issue. They did not explicitly state it in the intelligence, but only indirectly hinted that the A-type equipment in the hands of the Holy Crescent Alliance in Iraq may not all come from Israel, because there are quite a few of them. Part of the models of weapons and equipment appeared in the list of the government of country A to aid the Iraqi federal government forces. As for why the A army stationed in Iraq, which is closest to the Holy Crescent Alliance front, did not report in detail and try to solve this problem, maybe the Iraqi federal government The official will have some eyebrows.

Seeing this, Li Yexing put down the materials in his hands, raised his head, and silently looked at the ceiling above his head. At this moment, he only felt that his mood had become more subtle.
