Beating Instances through Words Left by the Dead

Chapter 430: Chapter 228: The Assassin’s True Identity (Part 2)

The assassin’s hypnosis ability is remarkably comprehensive; he can influence the target’s sensations through hypnosis, making it impossible for the other party to detect him.

He can also influence the other party’s mind through hypnosis, making Muraoka Keisuke extremely drowsy on the road, unable to wake up no matter what.

Furthermore, while the other party is under hypnosis, he can deepen the hypnosis further, unknowingly extracting information from them.

Muraoka Keisuke so easily told the assassin everything, not only because he regarded it as a dream but also because he was led to feel the assassin was as intimate as family.

The assassin likely relied on this powerful hypnosis ability to infiltrate Hymn Company’s second laboratory, take the Disqualified Monster converter, and walk out swaggeringly.

The second piece of information revealed in Muraoka Keisuke’s resentment is even more significant than the first.

The assassin’s hypnosis only affected Muraoka Keisuke and did not affect Wu Chang; therefore, through resentment, the assassin in his eyes was not a shadowy figure.

Although the other party made some disguise efforts, due to the hurried actions, the watch on his wrist and shoes on his feet were not changed. Coupled with his height, body shape, and habitual choice of words, Wu Chang was ninety percent sure of the other party’s true identity.

Speaking of which, the other party is an acquaintance; the two had just exchanged greetings.

The assistant to the magnate Moritz, Mr. Raymond.

Raymond is highly valued by Moritz, and every time Moritz comes to Hymn Company, Raymond usually accompanies him.

Unexpectedly, this guy who frequently enters and exits Hymn Company openly is the assassin Hymn Company has been searching for—a classic case of hiding in plain sight.

It is unclear whether Raymond’s actions are personal or instructed by Moritz.

Of the two outcomes, Wu Chang leans towards the former.

As a senior executive of the company, Muraoka Keisuke’s performance and ability are excellent, but his abilities shown as a Disqualified Monster were very mediocre.

As a Disqualified Monster, he still maintained a human form, only with a height of around five meters, and his limbs were strong to the point of distortion, while his torso was so emaciated that ribs were visible.

The unbalanced body proportions made it challenging for him to control his body. His destructive power was far less than that of the Gluttonous Ant released by Wu Chang.

While Wu Chang was contemplating the information in the resentment, the Hymn patrol team gradually controlled the situation, cornering the Disqualified Monster form of Muraoka Keisuke.

Minutes later, an armed helicopter carrying the emergency mobile unit appeared in the sky.

This time, the Gold Medal Employee sent in was not the Great Sword duo from last night but a two-meter-tall, topless, muscular adult man.

With a cigar in his mouth and a weapon similar to a rocket launcher but seemingly more technologically advanced and with a longer barrel on his shoulder, he stood carelessly at the cabin door.

Wu Chang saw a hint of divinity in the barrel, indicating it was also an Essence Armor.

He did not drop down from the armed helicopter but directly aimed the barrel at Muraoka Keisuke. After a brief charge, instead of a rocket being launched, a dazzling beam of light sprayed from the barrel.

The beam easily pierced through Muraoka Keisuke, evaporating a third of his body on the spot. Hit by this shot, the Disqualified Monster form of Muraoka Keisuke collapsed dead immediately.

The laser beam, with such massive power, did not continue to shoot into the distance after piercing Muraoka Keisuke but dissipated after extending three to four meters further.

Only a small part of the battle in Orens Manor was seen last night, to be exact, today was the first time the Essence Armor appeared in public view.

With immense power and its capability to only kill monsters without harming humans, the Essence Armor instantly captivated the citizens’ attention.

The citizens nearby who had not yet evacuated ignored the possibility of the Disqualified Monster resurrecting and raised their phones to snap pictures of the strongman holding the Essence Armor.

The next moment, information about the Essence Armor flooded the Y platform.

Unlike others, Wu Chang lost interest after seeing there was no resentment on the cannon-shaped Essence Armor. He called the distracted Fei Guang and others back to their senses and instructed them to inquire around the neighborhood shops’ buildings to see if they could get some orders.

Wu Chang assigned a full day’s work to the group and locked Fei Guang and the others on Pine Street with a promise of doubled performance.

While Fei Guang and the others had no time to attend to anything else, Wu Chang sat in the car supervising and focused his consciousness on the True Self.

In Sean’s mansion, while pretending to look through documents, the True Self picked up the phone to check the messages from the main body and then looked up and shouted:

”Everyone, come here, we have work to do.”

Booker, who was lifting weights in the indoor gym, Colton, who was attempting to hack into the Vildo City Hall network, and Veronica, who was studying the Vildo City map, all stopped what they were doing and gathered towards the True Self.

After a whole day yesterday, the injuries on Booker and Colton had healed by eighty percent, and Veronica had also regained her lost energy.

Although the three were not in optimal status at the moment, they were still competent in facing another encounter with the Iron Armor Corps.

After Wu Chang signed the Orens Manor order, his performance skyrocketed, and getting a few employee spots was extremely easy for the second-ranking department manager in annual performance.

Before a brief nap last night, he had already instructed the secretary to handle their hiring and had the True Self send them the employment contracts.

Booker and the other two were very perceptive. Seeing how well-connected the True Self was, even without the True Self introducing himself as Peace and revealing his highly recognizable nickname, they still adopted a stance of obeying commands.
