Chapter 292 - Torture? Murder Weapon
Lin Tian was then brought to a basement by the leaders. When the basement door opened, there was a long table inside. Lin Guodong’s body was flowing with illusory power. Then, he waved his hand, then, a spatial crack appeared out of thin air.
“Everyone, please come in!”
Lin Guodong said with a smile. The others smiled and nodded. Each of them was supported by illusory power. Then, the spatial crack grew larger as more and more people entered, after everyone was in position, Lin Tian was the last person to enter.
Then, the spatial crack closed completely. The surroundings were pitch black. However, a ray of light soon shone out, illuminating the entire spatial crack extremely brightly. Inside the spatial crack, the layout was exactly the same as the previous basement, except that the surrounding walls had become empty.
“Lin Tian, please take a seat!”
Lin Guodong said with a smile. He knew Lin Tian’s name. After all, Lin Tian had become really famous. However, Lin Tian knew that these leaders must have something to bring him to such a hidden place.
Of course, he didn’t stand on ceremony. He just sat opposite Lin Guodong. Lin Guodong sat on the main seat. Next to him was the president of the Armored Envoy Association, Elder Xu. On his right was a robust middle-aged man, in front of his chest was a picture of a dragon.
“Alright, let’s cut to the chase. You don’t have to be nervous. Lin Tian, just say what you know!”
Lin Guodong said with a smile. The whole process was like a spring breeze. The middle-aged man next to him was looking at Lin Tian. He had sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes. A faint sense of oppression came over him. In fact, this middle-aged man was from the Dragon Division, at that time, he even spoke up for Lin Tian.
“Little Zou, come and tell Lin Tian the specific situation!”
After Lin Guodong finished speaking, he looked at the captain of the guard team at the side. The name of the captain was Zou Lijun. He was bald and looked a little honest and humble. However, when it came to this kind of thing, he completely changed his appearance. After he stood up, his face had a serious expression. He was not angry, but he looked mighty.
“First of all, this is what happened. Lin Tian, do you still remember that you obtained a goatskin scroll when you were at Hex City University?”
Zou Lijun spoke in a deep voice. His eyes were calm as he looked at Lin Tian. When Lin Tian heard Zou Lijun’s words, he frowned slightly. His heart started to beat really fast. He was considering whether he should hide this matter.
However, he quickly rejected this idea. Since Lin Guodong and the rest had brought him here, they naturally had evidence. Moreover, he did not seem to have discovered any use for the goatskin scroll for the time being, there was no need to keep this secret.
“That’s right. When I was heading to the university’s warehouse, I felt the summoning of this goatskin scroll!”
After Lin Tian answered truthfully, he took out the scroll from his pocket. Lin Guodong and the others were slightly surprised. They didn’t expect Lin Tian to be so honest, they didn’t think it would be so easy.
When Zou Lijun heard Lin Tian’s words, he was also slightly surprised. He didn’t expect Lin Tian to be so cooperative. At this time, the middle-aged man from the Dragon Division stood up. He glared at Lin Tian, the aura on his body suddenly burst out.
Lin Tian felt as if he was suddenly hit by a huge force on his chest. He held his chest and took a few steps back. After that, the middle-aged man slowly withdrew his aura, the middle-aged man from the Dragon Division looked at Lin Tian coldly.
“Do you know what you’ve done?”
The middle-aged man growled. The atmosphere in the basement instantly became much more intense. The surrounding air also became sluggish. Lin Tian felt as if he was about to suffocate. He frowned slightly, at the same time, a trace of doubt appeared in his eyes.
Lin Tian indeed did not know what had happened on the scroll. However, the scroll had undergone changes ever since it entered the hunting grounds. It was just that he did not manage to capture it in the end. Now, it seemed like the secret on the goatskin scroll was not that simple.
“What you are carrying is a lethal weapon. It can continuously absorb the blood of any magical beast!”
The middle-aged man shouted loudly. At the same time, the entire space began to distort. The space began to crack, accompanied by a buzzing sound. It could be seen that the middle-aged man’s emotions were very unstable, he could go berserk at any time.
“Lethal weapon? Absorb blood?”
After hearing the middle-aged man’s words, Lin Tian became even more confused. However, he suddenly remembered the strange phenomenon that happened on the goatskin scroll. It seemed that there was indeed something red like blood attached to it in the end.
However, he did not know about this.
“I’m sorry, but when I got it, there was nothing on this goatskin scroll!”
Lin Tian finally managed to digest what the middle-aged man had just said. At this moment, he was a little nervous when he spoke. He stood up and said. His eyes were bright, and it was obvious that he was not lying.
However, when Lin Tian said those words, the others were unhappy. Zou Lijun stood up, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes. Everyone here knew the origin of the goatskin scroll.
That was the Sea Monster Empire.
The Sea Monster Empire and the Hex City Base were sworn enemies, and they were irreconcilable enemies.
“This scroll has been sealed for at least ten years. No one has been able to activate it. No matter what method is used, it won’t work. Now, you seem to be saying that you don’t know?”
Zou Lijun was really angry. Although Lin Tian looked innocent, in all these years, they had tried many methods to activate this scroll, but none of them worked.
In the end, when Lin Tian brought it over, the effect was obvious. Even if they said they didn’t know, they wouldn’t believe it.
“I don’t believe this kid. Everyone here should have some understanding of this scroll. Do you believe his words?”
At this moment, a middle-aged woman stood up. She was full of nobility and questioned Lin Tian. She felt that Lin Tian’s words couldn’t be trusted. At this moment, three people had already stood up, it was obvious that many of the higher-ups present did not believe Lin Tian’s words.
Lin Tian’s words were too contradictory. If he really did not know, how could he activate the goatskin scroll? It made no sense. It was not as if they had not tried to activate it with fresh blood, but it was still useless.
“Just arrest him directly. There’s no need to say so much. The goatskin scroll is of great importance. I feel that the secret inside is not ordinary!”
An old man stood up faintly and said faintly. His tone was very casual and light, as if he could disregard the lives of others at any time. Lin Tian’s frown deepened.
He looked at these leaders and opened his mouth. He wanted to say something, but it was as if he couldn’t say anything. It was really difficult to speak. These people seemed to have determined that all of this was related to him.
However, at this moment, a figure blocked his way.
