Chapter 227 Find him and kill him!

 After Chrollo issued the assembly order, the members of the brigade rushed to the assembly point.

 However, before anyone else arrived, Chrollo, Paknoda, Kubi and Madge were the first to arrive at the gathering place.

 The meeting point is a private hospital somewhere in the ancient Ganyu Kingdom.

  Feitanna's burnt and shrunken body was stored in the morgue of this hospital.

 Originally, everyone in the brigade planned to bury Feitan and the knight together, but at Nobunaga's suggestion, only the knight was buried and Feitan's body was kept.

 Chrollo came here this time just to use the "Yellow Springs Mirage" ability on Feitan's body.

 Morgue.

 Cold white light illuminates the surroundings.

  Paknoda reached out and opened the corpse refrigerator, and a mist-like cold air instantly filled the air from the cabinet.

 Chrollo and Kubi stood beside the morgue, watching quietly.

  Maggie stepped forward, and together with Kenoda, she took Feitan's body out of the refrigerator and carefully laid it flat on the morgue.

  Everyone present looked at Feitan's body.

charred and shrunken—

phy The volume of the entire corpse was less than one-third of its original size. The face was unrecognizable, and the position of the head and limbs could only be barely discerned.

  "The thief's ultimate intention"

Chrollo raised his right hand, and as his thoughts surged, a red and black book appeared out of thin air in his palm.

  The pages of the rustling book turned automatically and quickly without any wind, and finally settled on the page that recorded the ability of "Underworld Mirage".

 As the ability was activated, the mental energy all over Chrollo suddenly surged, as if being pulled by some kind of force, and involuntarily gathered towards his shoulders, forming two countercurrent waterfalls of mental energy.

 And at the end of the upward surge of thought energy, a blurry shadow was gradually outlined.

 The shadow is wearing a ferocious ghost mask, floating quietly, like a messenger from the underworld.

     mirage”

Chrollo pressed his left hand lightly on Feitan's charred corpse, and the evil ghost behind him stretched out his sharp claws and slowly pierced the corpse's chest.

  The shadow's palm became blurry and uncertain at the moment it touched the corpse, as if it was somewhere between reality and reality.

 After a moment, it withdrew its arm, but brought nothing out. Feitan's body remained lifeless, and the evil ghost's shadow returned to its original state, floating quietly.

  The lack of response caused the air in the morgue to freeze for a moment.

  Machi frowned slightly, and Paknota's fingertips tightened unconsciously.

 Even Kubi, who was always silent, could not help but lean forward and look carefully at Feitan on the morgue.

  "Captain, is this a failure?"

  Pike Nuoda asked hesitantly.

Chrollo stared at Feitan's charred remains and said calmly: "One of the conditions for activating this ability is that the 'psychic object' needs to maintain a rough shape."

 At this point, his eyes swept over Feitan's short limbs and torso, as well as the shapeless head.

 "Feitan looks like this - it seems that he cannot meet this condition."

 "In other words, our work is in vain?"

 Kubi's eyes moved away from Feitan's body and turned to look at Chrollo.

 Chrollo closed the Thief's Mind.

  The evil ghost shadow behind him collapsed.

  "No, it is not difficult to meet the ability conditions."

Chrollo raised his right hand slightly, half-covering his thin lips with his slender index finger, his eyelids were slightly drooped, his eyelashes cast a small shadow under the light, and there was a rare introspection in his voice:

 "It's just that I was too impatient - I wanted to try Efeitan with a sense of luck. In this case, can the conditions for activation of the ability be met? "

Machi's fingers wrapped with thought threads paused slightly. Paknota and Kubi exchanged thoughtful glances. The three of them remained silent in tacit agreement, waiting for the leader to continue explaining.

 "Wait for Amanda to come."

 Chrollo put down his hand and his voice returned to its usual calmness, "Her ability can solve this problem."

 "Amanda—"

 Hearing the name Chrollo said, Madge, Kubi, and Pikenota all looked slightly moved.

Amanda is the new member who joined the team some time ago.

 Although they have met Amanda once, they have not had much contact with her. They only know that she is a user with operational abilities.

 Although I don’t know the specific ability, since the leader said so, there will be no problem.

 Chrollo stared silently at the remains of the Feitan.

  If even Amanda's ability cannot restore the Feitan's remains to a rough shape, then they can only make a special trip to Chelimoli Valley to find the telepathic user who once helped Salazar recover the body.

 This path is feasible, but it will take more time.

 Chrollo took a moment to slow down his breathing, suppressing the anxiety that emerged from his heart.

  Don’t be impatient or impatient—

 Be patient and calm to ensure that "this thing" can be done.

 This will be the case before, now, and even in the future.

 Whatever you want to do, you must do it.

 So you can't make mistakes, you must never make mistakes -

 A shadow fell from Chrollo's eyes, and some waves in his heart gradually disappeared.

  "I will spend the rest of my life as a villain."

  "I will make people all over the world shudder for me!"

   "I will completely transform myself and turn myself into a monster—"

  The vows I made in front of my friends echoed in the depths of my mind.

Chrollo slowly opened his eyelids and looked at the light that was not too dazzling.

  Some inappropriate emotions deep in his eyes completely disappeared, replaced by his usual deep indifference.

Maggie looked at Chrollo's side face as if aware of it, her lips moved slightly, and finally calmed down.

 It was late that night.

  Amanda stepped into the hospital morgue.

 Before her arrival, Chrollo, Madge, Paknoda and Kubi stood silently like solidified statues.

 It wasn't until her footsteps broke the silence that they all turned to Amanda at the door, as if they were injected with life.

Wearing a red dress, Amanda walked in with high heels. Her colorful makeup was particularly eye-catching under the pale light.

  If Moreau were here, he would definitely recognize her identity.

  It was one of the core combat forces of the Finger Organization that he had personally destroyed, Index Finger Amanda.

 Chrollo raised his hand and pointed at Feitan's remains on the morgue and asked: "Can it be done?

 "No problem."

 Amanda glanced at Feitan's charred remains, a trace of disgust flashed in her eyes, but she still stretched out her hand with scarlet nail polish.

   "Let me make it clear first, I am only responsible for adjusting the body according to your requirements. Whether it can be done or not is none of my business."

   "Let's get started."

  Chrollo said lightly.

Hearing this, Amanda's right hand, which reached towards the wreckage, suddenly stirred up bright telepathy.

   "If you don't love me, go to hell"

  This is Amanda's operational ability.

  Any existence with a complete human body, as long as she takes off the heads of these existences, she can directly gain control.

  Whether it is a living human being or an existence similar to a mannequin or a cartoon doll, they are all within the scope of the ability.

 And because of the ability restriction that you can only gain control by removing the head with your own hands, the effect of the oath of "obeying your words" was born.

 This oath effect will give two characteristics to the ability.

 One is that Amanda can freely control the target with "thoughts", and the other is the ability to freely transform the target into what Amanda wants to see, that is, the ability to freely change the shape.

 It is worth mentioning that the size of the target controlled by her can only be reduced through compression, but cannot increase in size.

  This is a kind of mental ability born from deformed concepts.

 Amanda complied with Chrollo's request and used her ability on the remains of the Feitan.

 Her palms filled with telepathy were like sharp blades, cutting off Feitan's charred head that was already in disarray.

 At this moment, she gained control of the wreckage.

In itself, her operating system ability, according to the requirements of the ability, can only be used on living or dead objects with "complete human bodies". But what is interesting is-

Amanda's definition of "complete" is as long as it has human limbs and a head.

 Although Feitan's body was charred and shrunken, his head and limbs could still be barely discerned.

  So Amanda's ability still takes effect on Feitan's corpse.

  In comparison, the ability "Yellow Springs Mirage" developed by Cang Ye only requires the corpse to have a rough shape.

 This seemingly more relaxed condition actually embodies an almost rigid quality.

  It requires the body to be intact, but it has a casual definition.

  The corpse is required roughly, but it has a rigid definition.

 The character and viewpoint of the ability user will always greatly affect the characteristics of the ability and even the way it is used.

 This may be an interesting aspect of the ability to read, but it is also an aspect that cannot be discussed with common sense.

 After Amanda gained control of Feitan's body, she only had a thought.

 The charred corpse suddenly shrank like a twitch, and the charred skin rolled inward like molting, revealing dark red dry flesh.

 With a heart-wrenching creaking sound, the entire torso of the corpse quickly shrank and deformed.

 In just a few breaths, the charred corpse had shrunk to the size of a one-year-old baby.

  The flesh and blood freed up by this process turned into complete limbs.

Although the limbs are still covered with scorch marks, some muscle fibers can be seen, like a mummy that has been roasted by fire.

 "I can only do this much."

 Amanda stopped controlling her thoughts and looked at Feitan's changed body.

 Compared with the previous appearance, at least it is much more pleasing to the eye.

 Chrollo did not speak, but looked at Madge.

 Ma Qi understood instantly, pulled out a thin needle from the sewing bag on the back of her left hand, and then sewed Feitan's head, which was cut off by Amanda, back onto the transformed headless body.

 It only takes a moment.

  Maggie used a dazzling technique to perfectly sew Feitan's head to his body.

beside.

 Amanda saw Madge’s technique up close and couldn’t help but take a high look.

  Spider—

   It really lives up to its name.

  It seems that I won’t be disappointed.

  Amanda thought silently in her heart.

 After making preparations for Feitan's body, Chrollo once again manifested the thief's ultimate intention.

  turn the page, freeze frame.

 As the power of thought surged on Chrollo's shoulders, the shadow wearing the evil ghost mask appeared again.

 Chrollo stretched out his hand and gently pressed it against the chest of Feitan's body.

  The evil ghost shadow behind him then extended its sharp claws and pierced the chest of Feitan's corpse.

This time, the palm of the hand turned towards reality, pulling out a slightly blurry humanoid mirage from Feitan's body.

 Chrollo looked at the motionless humanoid mirage in the hands of the evil ghost mask. Without any hesitation, Chrollo chose the form of ability to directly transplant the memory to L Weili.

 This form will damage his memory, but it will allow him to "see" everything about Feitan before his death more intuitively.

 The phantom wearing the evil ghost mask followed Chrollo's order and stuffed the humanoid mirage pulled out of Feitan's corpse directly into Chrollo's body.

 At that moment, circles of black threads formed around Chrollo's body.

 Everything he saw was covered by darkness.

 The next moment.

  A gap opened in the darkness, and as the gap widened, a strange picture emerged from it.

  Cemetery.

 The figure of a blond boy waving chains gradually became clear.

 This is Feitan's last memory before his death.

 It’s still the first perspective.

 Chrollo's consciousness was firmly locked on the blond boy.

 He was the one who killed Feitan and Xia Ke—"

 Unfortunately, as the battle continued, Chrollo quickly overturned this conclusion.

 Not this.

  He looked at the blond boy who was tortured and bruised from Feitan's first-hand perspective with indifference.

 Not long after, a man suddenly appeared and stepped into the battle.

 Chrollo watched the playback of "Memory Before Death" calmly like a bystander.

  He saw the abilities Morrow used in battle.

 ​​​The telekinetic bullets become stronger through retracement, as well as the normal split telekinetic bombs.

 There is also the ability to spread the mental energy in all directions, shining like stars.

  仏 Afterwards, there was a scene where Feitan’s telekinetic fire-proof suit was destroyed and he was burned alive until he died.

 Chrollo's ears were filled with Feitan's painful roar.

 When the scene in front of him also ignited with scorching flames, he felt a fierce burning sensation coming from the surface of his skin in a daze.

The memory fragment did not last long, but it gave Chrollo a feeling as long as a long night.

  In the morgue.

  Machi and the others could only see Chrollo's eyes open, but they were out of focus, and his body was surrounded by slender black thoughts.

  Although Chrollo had told them roughly about abilities before.

 But even so, they could not help but worry about Chrollo at this time.

 What they didn't know was that -

 After Chrollo "read" Feitan's memory before his death, he did not exit the current state. Fortunately, he started the second and third time -

 He no longer felt empathy for Feitan's death.

 From the second time onwards, all his thinking focused on Moreau's demonstrated ability.

 The perpetrator they were looking for has surfaced.

  Then the next step—

  The next thing to do is to use this clear intelligence to formulate a strategy that can target the perpetrator.

 Finally find him and kill him!
