Who says those who retire at the speed of light are not heroes?

..........................................

Lin Cheng glanced down.

The armor on his chest was already in pieces and was being repaired with energy. After all, it was just an alchemical tool, a toy he asked Lemon to make for him, so it was not that practical. The predator in front of him had bloodshot eyes. It was a killing machine without intelligence, and its goal was to kill all creatures within its range. Lin Cheng did not fight it to the death, but kept pulling and escaping.

He was fleeing towards a more remote forest. The predators were extremely fast, and he could only rely on some terrain obstacles to barely block them. But after only running for a minute or two, he was caught up again. The sickle chopped his back, and Lin Cheng's body fell to the ground.

The plunderer would not give him the chance to stand up and hide again. The sickle chopped down again. Lin Cheng stretched out his hands, tightly grasped the sickle, and gathered all his strength in his arms.

....................................

On a small hill near Taohuawu.

The surveillance footage was not complete. After all, the surveillance was temporarily installed last night. At this moment, Lin Cheng and the plunderer had already escaped to a place outside the surveillance footage. Therefore, he could only ask the shaman, "How is their battle going?"

The shaman could share the vision of the predator, and there was some cold sweat on his forehead. He replied, "The predator is about to kill him..."

Ri Mian frowned and looked at Futian standing aside, "Should we take action now?"

But Futian's expression remained calm and indifferent, "Wait a little longer."

"What are we waiting for? Even if he is really the person who committed the crime two years ago... shouldn't we arrest him directly? Why did the alliance have to take this step? And deliberately release the catastrophic monster to test him?"

"I don't know." Futian shook his head. "This is the decision from above. If he really has S-level power, he can at least hold on for another five minutes. After five minutes, we will intervene."

"Futian!"

"An order is an order." Futian looked into the distance, at the shaman, "What now?"

But the shaman's expression turned pale at this moment, "I can't see clearly...his armor exploded..."

....................................

This fiaz transformer uses a crystal core from the Abyss Devourer, and it has a self-destruct function when it was made. Lin Cheng's strength is no longer able to withstand the sickle, and the self-destructive armor is the last choice.

The impact force of the explosion caused the catastrophic monster to retreat a few steps, leaving only some scattered bloody wounds on its body. When Lin Cheng stood up, his clothes were also burning.

The flames were invading his skin. He slowly got up from the ground and looked at the predator in front of him, his lips moving slightly.

He tore off the T-shirt he was wearing and threw it to the ground, leaving his upper body naked. The previous flames had burned his skin, leaving it bloody and blurred. The smell of blood and flesh exposed to the air obviously made the plunderer extremely excited. It pounced towards Lin Cheng again, and the sickle slashed straight at his neck, but the moment it arrived in front of Lin Cheng, all its movements suddenly stopped.

This time, the predator let out another sharp howl.

At present, humans cannot understand the language of the abyss, and do not understand the meaning of the howls of each creature in the abyss, but Lin Cheng understands that this time, what is hidden in its howls is fear.

It saw the deep blue in Lin Cheng's eyes.

The azure blue in his eyes was very similar to the color of the black cat at home, but the next moment, his body began to be wrapped in blood threads, and soon his body began to grow until it became the same height as the predator. The blood threads completely wrapped him up, turning him into flesh and blood. His arms were also entangled in the blood threads, turning into sickles that flashed a faint cold light.

He...became a predator.

....................................

“He… he has also turned into a predator… hurry… hurry… his breath is wrong… his breath is wrong… save me… save me!!!” The shaman suddenly let out a howl and hugged his arms tightly. The pain made his face turn extremely pale and his whole body convulsed.

Futian and Riguao immediately activated their energy links and followed the energy aura. With their energy level, it would only take them five seconds to reach the battle site. But when they arrived there, there was only a predator standing on the ground.

At this moment, there was a pile of broken flesh and blood on the ground.

If the pieces of flesh and blood on the ground were pieced together, they could form another predator. The predator standing on the ground slowly turned around and looked at the two of them.

There are human emotions in his eyes　

The blood threads that were wrapped around his body quietly returned to his body at this moment, and he turned back into Lin Cheng again. The previous bloody scars on his body also disappeared. At this moment, his eyes were quietly staring at Futian and Rigua in front of him.

"Is it the Alliance's reinforcements?"

"Yes."

"It's been solved. Luckily it was just a predator that had just been promoted to S-level. No other abyss creatures have come. Since you are here, it will be left to you to clean up the mess." Lin Cheng's voice was very soft. He chuckled at them, but there was a hint of fatigue in his smile.

But just as he took a step forward, Futian arrived in front of him.

"Sorry, you can't leave here for the time being."

Lin Cheng looked up at him, puzzled, "Why?"

"What are your abilities?"

"My ability is physical, and I can mimic abyss creatures to a certain extent." Lin Cheng replied softly.

"You have been identified as being involved in a crime committed by a civilian with special abilities two years ago. Please cooperate with us and return to the alliance for investigation. If you are not a suspect, you will be able to leave soon."

"Two years ago? A person with special abilities committed a crime?" Confusion appeared in Lin Cheng's eyes.

"Two years ago, there was an S-class physical ability user. His ability was also to change his body structure, so his appearance and figure could change in a myriad of ways. The Alliance has been hunting him for two years, but due to the special nature of his ability, it has been difficult to capture him. Therefore, there will be a routine investigation of all S-class physical ability users. Please cooperate with our work."

Lin Cheng understood and nodded gently, "Okay."

Futian took out a pair of blue handcuffs. Lin Cheng was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled, "I am willing to cooperate... Can I not wear these?"

"Sorry, this is the process, please understand."

"Okay, okay. If I can make sure there's no suspicion, I should be able to get out soon, right?"

"It won't take more than three days, I promise you."

"Okay." Lin Cheng stretched out his hands obediently.

Those were Alliance-specific handcuffs, which contained alchemical technology and could suppress the flow of energy to a certain extent. Futian was a little surprised at his cooperation, but this was of course the situation he would most like to see.

He also didn't hope that the other party was really the person with special abilities who committed the crime two years ago. After all... his original intention of staying here and killing the plunderer was to prevent it from harming innocent people in the neighboring village.

But at the moment the handcuffs were opened, a dagger suddenly flew onto Futian's palm and pierced through it directly.

The speed was so fast that Futian had no time to react. Futian and Ri Mian turned around together. At this moment, there were three women standing behind them.

He had just met two of them a few days ago.

Lychees, grapes, and a tall woman with tear marks on her cheeks. That was Xu Wanyue, and Futian didn't know her.

The dagger that pierced his palm seemed to be engraved with an inscription of pain. The pain made Futian tremble all over for a moment, and the dagger instantly flew back to Grape's hand.

Grape's eyes were cold and arrogant.

62 Interrogation

The atmosphere naturally became tense at this moment.

"Get away from him, or die." Grape's voice is always so cold, and her silver hair flutters gently in the breeze.

Futian quickly stopped the bleeding with energy, and the wound began to heal quickly. After reaching SS level, this is a key role of energy.

Corona has already taken out the alchemical technology firearms that the Alliance customized for him, which is a perfect match for his abilities.

Before Futian could speak, Lin Cheng suddenly spoke up, "It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding... I'm fine."

Grape turned her eyes to him, but did not say anything. She just looked at him quietly, waiting for Lin Cheng to continue.

"They suspected that I was a person who committed a crime two years ago, so I cooperated with their investigation. It's okay. I will be back in two days."

Lizhi moved her eyes to Lin Cheng's face and asked with her spiritual ability. Lin Cheng blinked at her. After a moment, Lizhi understood and gently pulled Grape's hand, "He's fine, let's go back."

"Oh." Grape nodded.

"Let's go, let's go." Lizhi gently grabbed Grape's hand and turned around, glancing at Xu Wanyue but didn't say anything.

Before Xu Wanyue could react, Grape and Litchi had already turned around. However, Futian, whose palm had just been pierced by a dagger and stung by the painful inscription, could not help but have some anger in his eyes. Although for an SS-level ability user, this was not a serious injury, probably just a scratch, it was a great humiliation. He said, "You, stop."

But Litchi and Grape seemed not to have heard anything and continued walking forward. Futian raised his hand and was about to say something when Litchi suddenly turned his head and his dark pupils suddenly turned into a brilliant golden color.

SS level, spiritual master.

Grape also turned her head at that moment. She did not show her strength, but her eyes were too contemptuous.

"I don't mind sending you to die. It will be quick and won't hurt."

Lin Cheng, who had not yet been handcuffed, hesitated for a moment and patted Futian on the shoulder, "Brother...how about forget it? I can't stop her if she goes crazy."

After saying that, Litchi and Grape turned around and left without even looking at Futian. Futian's face turned pale and blue. It was not that he did not want to take action at this moment, but as an SS-level judge of the alliance, he had to be cautious about too many things.

He had seen the name Yuesha in the alliance's file bag. Although she was a killer in the dark, her real combat record had not been recorded, but according to all the rumors, at least four SS-level people had died at her hands in the past.

The most terrifying thing is the unknown.

If the other SS-level members of the alliance were not dealing with the SS-level natural disaster in the neighboring city B, he would never have endured it to this point. Litchi and Grape had already walked away, and Corona stood quietly on the side, as if thinking about something.

Xu Wanyue came to Lin Cheng's side, the tears on her face had not yet dried, "Are you okay?"

"It's okay. Fortunately, only an S-class predator descended. Otherwise, I would have died." Lin Cheng stretched out his hands. "Can you handcuff me?"

"You..." Xu Wanyue's mind was confused.

"It's okay. They said I was related to an S-rank criminal suspect from two years ago. They took me back for questioning and I will be released in two days. Can the contract time of these two days be ignored?"

Xu Wanyue was startled. She took the handcuffs from Futian first, and carefully put them on Lin Cheng, and whispered, "Why are you still thinking about this at this time?"

"I didn't do it, so there's nothing to be afraid of. The Alliance will clear my name." Lin Cheng replied with a smile, and then looked at Futian apologetically, "Brother, I'm really sorry, she really didn't mean it. She...is more impulsive. How about I transfer one million to you as an apology after I get out?"

Futian felt that this sentence was slightly mocking, so he just glanced at it coldly without saying anything. Ri Mian said softly, "Come with me. Futian still has some things to deal with. Don't worry. We just need to check the match between your blood and the database. Once the interrogation with the psychic ability user is over, you will be free."

"OK, all right."

Compared to Futian, Corona is obviously much more polite.

Lin Cheng obediently followed Xu Wanyue and followed Ri Mian into their car, while Futian disappeared in the distance and returned to the hill where they were previously.

At this moment, the shaman was rolling on the ground, tears streaming down his face from the pain. After all, in just ten seconds, Lin Cheng had chopped the predator into pieces, and the pain would be fed back to his body.

Futian fed him a sedative and the shaman soon fell into coma. Futian picked him up and prepared to take him back to the alliance's healing user.

..............................　

"Name?"

"Lin Cheng."

"age?"

"I'll be twenty-one next month."

"Education?"

“I dropped out of high school.”

"Profession?"

"I should be considered a vagrant, but I'm also a member of the fruit shop. My code name is Watermelon." Lin Cheng answered the question of the silver-haired girl opposite him very cooperatively.

Lin Cheng remembered that he had seen this girl once on the computer. She was the Arbiter idol promoted by the Alliance. Whenever Lin Cheng looked into her eyes, he always felt a little dizzy.

Her voice also made Lin Cheng feel inexplicably ethereal, as if her eyes were extremely pure, like an angel, making people subconsciously want to open their hearts in front of her.

"When did your ability awaken?"

"When I was fifteen, a natural disaster struck. When I returned home, I found that my abilities had awakened."

"Why not report it to the Alliance?"

"I don't want to be a judge. I'm afraid of fighting and killing, so I just stay at home and play games..."

"Have you ever killed anyone?"

"I killed one. When I was on a mission for the fruit shop some time ago, I was responsible for killing a guy named Qin Huan. All matters afterwards were left to the fruit shop to handle. The fruit shop should have given you a record of what happened to Qin Huan... This... should be okay, right?" Lin Cheng asked cautiously.

"It's okay." The 18-year-old silver-haired girl replied gently, "Besides Qin Huan, have you ever killed anyone else?"

"No, I'm actually a little dizzy about blood."

"How did you join the fruit shop?"

"Lizhi and I are good friends. She dragged me into the fruit shop."

"How did you meet her?"

"At that time, I approached her because she was pretty, and we gradually became familiar with each other."

"Have you heard of Siming?"

"Of course I've heard of him, he's my idol!"

"Where does your fruit shop's evolutionary blood come from?"

"I don't know. Only Lizhi knows about this. I am Lizhi's kept gigolo. I don't have any real power in the fruit shop..."
