It's the age of cyber, and you're still a traditional villain?

Chapter 339 "Purge", "β"

  The bridesmaids are not as good as silver.

  This was Tang Shuang's subconscious thought when he saw the woman in front of him.

  Nonsense, who is a good person standing in the desert so abruptly in such a chaotic situation with an incomprehensible smile on his face?

  Anyway, she would not classify the other party as a local of the Qingyun Immortal Realm. The reason is that her dress is not the style here at all - a robe like a hospital gown, and bare feet... Absolutely no!
  More importantly, her ability to control lightning with her hands is not like the way people in Qingyun Immortal World use their abilities, but more towards supernatural powers.

  In summary……

  "Are you a "Tianli" person? "

  She asked calmly, "Supervisor?" "

  "Hmm...why not?"

  The other party did not deny his origin, but admitted it with a strange smile.

  But she did not admit her identity, "But I am not a "monitor", but a "purger". "

  Tang Shuang was noncommittal.

  It seems to be the case. If it is really the "Supervisor", it will definitely not look out of place in this area. Who can show it by making a conspicuous appearance?

  "So the current riot of sand bugs was caused by you?"

  Combined with what she had experienced before, her eyes were unkind.

  "of course."

  The burqa woman smiled and nodded.

  "Finally you can't hold it any longer, can you?"

  Tang Shuang imitated her and sneered back, thinking to herself that this didn't seem like a bad thing?

  After all, we have done so much over the years. On the one hand, we need to develop our own strength. On the other hand, we must use this method to force the "Tianli" who has been hiding behind the scenes to show up. What's the point of just uncovering and executing the "Supervisor"? ? If you want to do it, you have to uproot it. That's what Xu Shi has to do.

  Now that "Tianli" took the initiative, Tang Shuang could not think of any other reason besides feeling the pressure brought by Xu Shi.

  Thinking of this, she even felt a little relieved for no reason.

  Although I really don't want to admit it, no matter what, "Heavenly Law" is the chess player of this world, and all living beings are their chess pieces.

  But now, as chess pieces, they finally jumped up from the chessboard and slapped the chess player in the face.

  Under such circumstances, even if she faced a rather difficult situation, it was enough to make her feel happy.

  Oh, I have become a fun person too...

  Um? Why should I say so?

  "Yeah, I can't hold it anymore."

  The burqa woman nodded again, "Seeing you little mice jumping around is always an eyesore."

  "So, it's time to send you to death."

  As she spoke, she tapped her toes, jumped up and stood on the head of the giant sand bug, with sparkling light flowing from her fingertips.

  Tang Shuang's face was solemn.

  Su Lin can detect the strength of her opponent through her aura, and Tang Shuang can do the same.

  So she didn't slack off at all from the beginning, because she knew that this strange pale-faced woman was also a SS!

  I'm so angry, is SS so worthless now? Obviously it was difficult to find one before...

  More importantly, as an S-level creature, she originally had no chance of winning against a giant sand bug. Now that another one came, it was no longer a question of whether she could compete, but a question of whether she could leave a whole corpse behind.

  No matter how confident she was, the gap in strength was still there, forcing her to face up to this problem.

  But she won't back down - in the current situation, all she has to do is buy time for the reinforcements and buy time for Xu Shi. As long as she can delay even one second longer, this crisis will be profitable.

  and so.

  Not feeling afraid for a moment because of the enemy's strength, the Governor of Tang Dynasty had already taken the initiative to launch an attack!
  A dozen "cloud glasses" were thrown out and gathered together in the air.

  "Ah."

  When the burqa woman saw this, she just sneered disdainfully, stretched out a finger and swiped down, and a thunder struck in the sky without any warning.

  The lightning struck the steel ball accurately, instantly turning it into fragments, forcibly removing the power of the explosion and turning it into a non-threatening firework.

  "If it's just an attack like this... it's too weak."

  Her tone was full of sarcasm, "Why don't you die obediently? I will consider letting you die a more beautiful death."

  As he spoke, more thunderbolts fell.

  In an instant, the offense and defense changed positions.

  This is to be expected. The gap between the S-class "upgraded ones" and the SS-class "upgraded ones" is already huge, and the little advantage gained by taking the first step cannot be filled at all.

  "whispering sound."

  Tang Shuang gritted his teeth, but he could only give up the attack, use as high a speed as possible to avoid the dense lightning strikes, and then wait for an opportunity to counterattack.

  Amidst the deafening thunder, she could vaguely hear the intermittent voice of the woman in a burqa.

  "Run! Run faster! Run like a mouse!"

  "Threat threshold to reach tipping point...initiate cleanup plan."

  "You don't really think that you alone can defeat the "Tianli", do you? "

  "Executor: "β", estimated clearance level: 100%"

  After hearing the other party's crazy and mechanical words, Governor Tang's head was full of black lines.

  NND, isn't this a mental illness?
  Of course not. The confrontation with "Tianli" in the past few years has made her know that the members of this organization are generally in this state - they have their own thinking and action abilities, but they can also be manipulated by more advanced people behind the scenes at any time. People control.

  In other words, it was just different people using her mouth to talk, but it sounded like she was sick, and she didn't know how to complain for a while.

  Fortunately, in the past three years, she has not degenerated into a pampered Night City lady. On the contrary, she has never given up for a moment on training herself and improving her abilities.

  With her body functions at peak condition, she is still the leading inspector general she once was. Even though it is difficult to dodge, she can still withstand it.

  She even had time to multitask, extracting useful information from the other person's words.

  First of all, this is the first time that the so-called "Purges" have appeared in front of everyone, and from the actions of the burqa woman, she can also analyze that compared to the "Supervisors" who can only low-key influence the plot direction of each region, their The duty is obviously simpler and rougher - to eliminate abnormal existences in the area, which is the so-called forcible intervention.

  It was obvious that the appearance of his group was a huge anomaly in their eyes, and they even did not hesitate to send out two SS at a time in order to completely eliminate these "heretics".

  However, it remains to be discussed whether this behavior is because they "came to Qingyun Immortal Realm and planned to intervene in the regional structure" as a single act, or whether it is the cause and effect of the outbreak caused by Xu Shi's behavior in the past three years.

  Tang Shuang himself is more inclined to the latter. After all, it seems a bit unreasonable if it is the former - during this period, they did not only intervene in the Qingyun Immortal Realm, there were dozens more in front... Why didn't they do this at that time? As soon as it comes out, do you have to wait until now?
  Is Qingyun Immortal Realm superior to others? Or is there something special here?
  Judging from the information currently available, it seems that there is not... but if it is because Xu Shi interfered in too many areas that the bottom line of "Heavenly Law" reached a critical point, it seems to be explained.

  However, from a personal emotional point of view, she would prefer the first situation. The reason is very simple. The degree of "clearance response" caused by intervention in a single area is definitely far inferior to that of an outbreak caused by long-term accumulation. To give the simplest example, when the Inspection Bureau arrested gangs, if it was just a warning, it might At most, they could fire a gun into the air to scare people, but if it was three warnings, the bullets would actually fall on people.

  With them, or with Xu Shi's current achievements, can they really cope with this level of "purge"?

  This is what worries her, so naturally she doesn't want the so-called decisive battle to come now.

  It's a pity that nothing can be changed if she doesn't hope. She also knows that the latter is more likely - two SSs are sent out at once, and no one will believe you if you say "the law of heaven" is not true.

  And this also illustrates another problem.

  Is the overall strength of "Tianli" really declining step by step as Xu Shi predicted?
  Before encountering this incident, Tang Shuang naturally thought so. After all, all the previous manifestations of "Tianli" all supported this fact - whether it was the voluntary abandonment of the Hualan Empire or this Turning a blind eye to the "Galaxy" Federation's massive siege and suppression of "supervisors" in various places for several years is a sign of weakness.

  But think about it on the other hand, what if all of this... is just a trap to lure the enemy deeper?

  If that's the case, that would be terrible - because does this mean that everything they have done before is just self-righteous and useless work?
  And when the "Galaxy" Federation was flourishing, such a devastating blow suddenly came, which destroyed not only their efforts, but also their spiritual will, and with it a large amount of invested resources.

  Tang Shuang also understands some of the dirty tricks used by those in power, and knows that the most vicious trick is to let everything go wrong at this time. After all, when people's will is destroyed, the possibility of repeating such a feat is probably infinite. Zero... Especially when a large amount of sunk costs have been paid, even if people are still willing to do it again, there may not be enough resources to support them in doing so.

  In other words, once they fail here, they will never be able to stand up again!

  After realizing how bad the current situation was, she briefly organized the information she had obtained so far as quickly as possible, and immediately planned to send it to Xu Shi so that he could prepare early.

  "How dare you get distracted?!"

  Tang Shuang's multitasking annoyed the woman named "β", and her expression became visibly distorted.

  next second.

  Not only did the thunder fall, but the giant sand bug she stepped on also moved.

  "babble--"

  Instead of releasing small sand bugs to harass and attack, an overwhelming yellow mist was sprayed out in an instant!

  This undoubtedly made Tang Shuang's avoidance more difficult.

  To be honest, whether it is "β" or the giant sand bug, their attacks can be described as simple, without any bells and whistles at all.

  But there is also a way to defeat ten guilds with one force. The difference in strength is here. Even such a simple trick still gives Governor Tang a headache.

  Again, even if it was just a war of attrition, she would be beaten to death by her opponent.

  at this time.

  "Tang Shuang!"

  A shout came, and the next moment, Tang Shuang saw a figure flash behind "β" and fell with a knife without hesitation!

  The opponent seemed to be unable to dodge in time. He was caught off guard and allowed the blade to fall on his back, slicing his burqa, revealing a small piece of skin as pale as paper.

  Who else but Su Lin can do this?
  Lin Yue followed closely and came to her side to stand beside her.

  "Why are you here?"

  Tang Shuang asked subconsciously.

  "Then I'll go?"

  Su Lin succeeded in the attack and ducked to her side, still in the mood to joke.

  "...It's all here."

  Governor Tang chuckled, feeling slightly relieved in his heart.

  It's always better to have three S-classes fighting side by side than to have her fight alone.

  It seems that they also realized that something was wrong, so they left Mosuo and his party to resist the insect swarm, while they chose to join her to capture the thief first.

  "...A mouse is a mouse, and even his tricks are so unspeakable."

  Being attacked by someone unexpectedly led to a happy reunion, "β" didn't show any anger, but instead had a bit of excitement in his eyes.

  It can be seen that she does not mind having a few more opponents when she has absolute strength.

  "be careful."

  Tang Shuang did not slack off, but kept the story short and briefly explained his findings to his two good sisters.

  "Two SS..."

  Su Lin thought thoughtfully after hearing this, "...No matter what, we must gain time no matter what."

  She couldn't say that she would be able to break the situation if she persisted until soon, but she also believed that if there was one person in the world who could reverse the situation, that person would only be her young master.

  "No one's scared, right?"

  She breathed a long sigh of relief and signaled Tang Shuang to tell Xu Shi the situation.

  "of course not."

  Tang Shuang and Lin Yue said in unison.

  "Then fight!"

  Director Su spoke loudly, with perseverance in his eyes.

  "Oh roar?"

  Hearing her say that, "β" smiled.

  It seems that they are laughing at their overestimation of their own abilities and their blind confidence in themselves.

  "This courage is not bad, but unfortunately, the courage of a mouse cannot change the fact that it is a mouse."

  She increased the frequency of thunder and lightning, and together with the giant sand bug, tried to turn this place into a dead place.

  Her mouth was not idle either.

  "Or, even if you really seize that slim hope and defeat me, so what?"

  If you listen carefully, you can seem to hear a hint of regret in these words.

  "You mean..."

  Tang Shuang was the first to react, and his pupils suddenly tightened.

  Just now she was pressed for time and had no time to think too much, but now she realized a blind spot that she had ignored before.

  "That's right, it's exactly what you think it is."

  "β" laughed wildly, "Once the 'clearance plan' is activated, no one can resist it!" "

  "Because there are still [-] "Purges" like me... "
