Chapter 84 Backlash
Although Yang Yilong was very angry at the moment, he had no way to deal with Li Yi.

Now Li Yi has joined the Investigation Bureau and is protected by Captain Zhang Lei. Apart from that, he did do the things that Li Yi said. No matter what the reason is, he did it. No matter how much he explains it at this moment, it is useless, so he can only swallow this loss.

Currently there is still the matter of the rare object to be dealt with, Yang Yilong can only suppress his inner anger and calm himself down. He must not lose the big picture for the sake of small gains and miss the opportunity to obtain the rare object.

"Li Yi, don't worry. No matter what happens, I will protect you. No one dares to do anything to you." Zhang Lei patted Li Yi on the shoulder and said very seriously.

He felt that Yang Yilong was not in a good condition, so his words were a warning to Yang Yilong not to act rashly.

Of course Yang Yilong understood, but his eyes turned cold and he didn't say anything.

"I don't want to see any fight happening next time. I hope you can give me, Li Shaoqing, some face. If anyone doesn't follow the rules, don't blame me, Li Shaoqing, for being ruthless." Li Shaoqing also said this at this moment.

How come even you?
Yang Yilong looked at Li Shaoqing with a little surprise. He didn't expect that he would stand on Zhang Lei's side at this time.

Shouldn't they join hands with me to find a way to take away the rare items here?
Forget it.

Let them do whatever they want.

Yang Yilong no longer paid attention to these things. He was only interested in strange objects now. Some small grudges and frictions seemed insignificant at the moment.

"Don't waste time. Hey, Zhang Lei, lead the way quickly and tell us where the rare object is." Wei Bin seemed a little impatient and he urged.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Just follow me." Zhang Lei strode forward with a calm expression.

Li Yi followed closely behind, not daring to leave the captain too far.

These people are all masters of spiritual perception and are extremely dangerous. If Zhang Lei was not here, Yang Yilong would probably be the first one to kill him.

But he didn't regret offending Yang Yilong.

If he doesn't make his position clear now, how will he survive in the Investigation Bureau in the future?

The group now went deeper into the building again.

No one knew what Zhang Lei was thinking along the way. He had no intention of delaying time and led them straight to the location of the white bone mural on the ninth floor.

"It seems that this strange object is indeed evil. Many ferocious beasts were trapped and died here."

Li Shaoqing's eyes focused. He saw corpses of ferocious beasts on every floor. Although there was a bullet hole on those corpses, it looked like they were shot to death.

However, judging from the wounds on the corpses, these ferocious beasts did not resist before being shot. It seemed that they all stood there like living targets.

In addition to the corpses of ferocious beasts, there are also the corpses of practitioners.

Although the practitioner's body was intact and there was no visible injury on his body, his eyes were lifeless and dim, and his consciousness had long since disappeared.
This way of dying was extremely evil, and made them, as practitioners in the spiritual perception realm, feel inexplicably uneasy.

On the way, Li Yi said, "I shot and killed all those ferocious beasts. I was worried that they would suddenly wake up and pose a danger to the investigators."

"Well done, that's exactly what you should do. Shoot them to prevent future troubles. Besides, their bodies are also very valuable. I'll have them transport them back later. These are your spoils of war. The Investigation Bureau will also buy them back at a reasonable price. You won't suffer any loss."

Zhang Lei nodded, expressing his approval of Li Yi's behavior, and at the same time told others.

Don't even think about taking any of the corpses of so many ferocious beasts here. They all belong to the Investigation Bureau.

Li Shaoqing smiled and didn't say anything. Although the corpses of these ferocious beasts were indeed of great value, he would not fight for them.

Yang Yilong and Wei Bin also remained silent.

Obviously, they condoned Zhang Lei's behavior.

As everyone continued to go upstairs, they were getting closer and closer to the location of the strange object.

Li Yi's eyes were shining at this moment, and he was watching the changes around him carefully.

He found that after he destroyed the bone mural, the range of influence of this strange object had been reduced to an unimaginable level. Before, the illusion could cover the entire building, and it was even constantly expanding outward, but now, it has reached the eighth floor, and he can't see the area covered by the illusion.

This problem was not only discovered by Li Yi, but Zhang Lei who was walking in front had also noticed it long ago.

At the same time, Zhang Lei also understood that Li Yi must have caused some damage to the bone mural after he escaped from the illusion, otherwise how could he have escaped from the illusion so smoothly before.

"Here we are. The wonder you want to see is right here."

soon.

Zhang Lei led them to the ninth floor smoothly. As soon as they arrived at this floor, Yang Yilong, Li Shaoqing and Wei Bin's eyes lit up and they looked at the same place in an instant.

It was a collapsed cement ruin, on the ruin stood a white marble wall with a mural of bones on it. Originally the mural was flawless, but for some reason there was a deep scratch on the forehead of the skull, and it was this scratch that made this originally complete wonder incomplete.

"It is indeed a strange object. Even standing here, I can feel the mysterious and mysterious power coming from the skull mural."

Yang Yilong's eyes were solemn. As long as he stared at the skull mural, his consciousness seemed to be disturbed and he felt in a trance.

Fortunately, I did not step into the energy field of the strange object, otherwise I might have been confused.

"It is said that the strange object has its own energy field. If you practice in it, you will progress very quickly. I wonder how big the energy field of this strange object is, and how many people can practice with it." Wei Bin licked his lips, and was very tempted at the moment.

"Unfortunately, there is a flaw in the ointment. The rare object is imperfect and its value is greatly reduced."

Li Shaoqing noticed the scratch that damaged the mural. He shook his head slightly, feeling very sorry, but then he suddenly laughed: "Incompleteness has its advantages, Zhang Lei, I remember that incomplete rare objects will not be forcibly recycled, which means that this incomplete rare object can be owned by a private person."

"That's right. Incomplete rare objects are allowed to be owned by individuals. Zhang Lei, now you don't have to worry about how to recycle them. Let's discuss how to distribute this incomplete rare object." Wei Bin was a little impatient at this moment.

Yang Yilong also said in a deep voice: "There is only one rare item. Whoever gets it will depend on their ability."

He was very confident that after mastering the art of guidance and boxing, he was confident that he could defeat anyone here and take away this rare item.

"You are too impatient."

Zhang Lei snorted coldly at this moment: "You haven't even figured out the strange object yet and you're already discussing the ownership issue. Don't forget what I said before. This strange object is very evil and not something that ordinary people can possess. If you don't believe it, go ahead and try. Once you get close to this strange object, you will be affected by it and pulled into the illusion. As for whether you can wake up in the end, it depends on your ability."

This sentence immediately made others think of the practitioners who had died on other floors before.

Those people had no injuries on their bodies, but their consciousness was gone. It seemed that they were harmed by this evil object.

After realizing what was happening, Yang Yilong, Li Shaoqing and Wei Bin couldn't help but frown slightly.

I wanted to try it, but I hesitated.

Once you are pulled into the illusion, even if it is possible for you to break free from it, it will take time.

During this period of time, if others want to attack me, I will be unable to fight back and will become a sitting duck.

"Don't say that my investigation bureau doesn't give you a chance. Twenty minutes."

Zhang Lei held up two fingers and said, "You only have 20 minutes to search for the artifact. After 20 minutes, my Investigation Bureau will directly take it back. This is the biggest concession I can make."

"Zhang Lei, you are too confident." Yang Yilong stood with his hands behind his back and said coldly, "It's just a broken treasure. Do you think I, Yang Yilong, can't conquer it?"

"Then prove it to me. If you can do it, I can consider giving up on recovering this incomplete artifact on behalf of the Investigation Bureau." Zhang Lei was very confident.

He and his group were all trapped in the illusion and couldn't extricate themselves. If it weren't for Li Yi, they would have probably died in it. He didn't believe that these people would not be affected in any way.

"Okay, it's a deal."

After Yang Yilong finished speaking, he strode towards the skull mural without hesitation.

The others did not stop him. They also hoped that Yang Yilong could step on the mine first and see what was going on.

But when Yang Yilong was halfway there, he suddenly remembered something, turned around and looked at Li Yi, then said: "If I really fell into the illusion, Zhang Lei, your Li Yi would not suddenly attack me, right?"

"Maybe after you fall into the illusion, I will take the opportunity to take off your pants, then take a picture and post it on WeChat Moments, so that people can see how big your thing is." Without waiting for Zhang Lei to answer, Li Yi spoke.

Yang Yilong's face suddenly turned dark.

Good guy.

You really want to do such a shameless thing.

Afterwards, Yang Yilong looked at Li Shaoqing again. He hoped that Li Shaoqing would stand up at this time.

Li Shaoqing didn't want to get involved in the dispute between Yang Yilong and the Investigation Bureau. He smiled and said, "Yang Yilong, you have too many enemies here. Forget it. I'll be the first to stand up. I believe you and Zhang Lei won't watch me get attacked by Wei Bin. Besides, Li Yi and I have no grudges, so he will definitely not attack me."

"." Yang Yilong's mouth twitched when he heard this.

I didn't expect that once my reputation got tarnished, the backlash would come so quickly.
