405: The Demon Inside the Body
Luo Mu did not pay much attention to Piao Jun's question, continuing to watch the Dragonmen and start thinking.
His gaze swept over the parts of the Dragonmen that differed from normal humans, a strange look faintly visible in his eyes.
He had to admit, he was still somewhat interested in these Dragonmen.
It wasn't that he had any special fetish; he simply found this type of human to be rather miraculous.
He even had a feeling that, in a strict sense, these people could no longer be counted as humans.
They could live in water and even manipulate water to serve as their weapon and aid.
Clearly, they were already evolving in some unknown direction.
However, the look in his eyes only lasted for a moment before he condensed another lightning spear, impaling a Dragonman to the ground.
The two sides were no longer considered the same species, and even shared a hatred practically etched into their souls.
No matter how you looked at it, what Luo Mu was doing to these Dragonmen could not be considered excessive.
After all, at a time like this, failure almost meant absolute death.
Time passed minute by minute, but the number of Dragonmen did not decrease at all.
However, the Dragonmen lying on the ground like charcoal were increasing, and a strange smell filled the air, causing the remaining Dragonmen's eyes to fill with terror.
"You are a demon! We just want to survive! Why are you treating us like this!"
One Dragonman finally couldn't bear the torment and abruptly stood up from the ground.
He pointed at Luo Mu and shouted accusations; he appeared to have completely broken down.
Luo Mu raised his head, looked at the guy, and nodded very seriously:
"Thank you for the compliment. I also think I'm a demon.
I truly don't care how you evaluate me.
This world is already rotten enough; I wouldn't even feel regretful if it were destroyed.
It's just that there is still someone in this world I care about, and he might need your information, which is why I'm wasting so much time with you."
As soon as he finished speaking, the standing Dragonman was hit by a lightning spear again and fell to the ground, trembling all over.
At this, not only did the surrounding Dragonmen fall completely silent, but even the experts of Whale Fall City were somewhat frightened.
It wasn't that they had guilty consciences, but that Luo Mu was extremely calm when he said this.
So calm that everyone could feel the sincerity in his words.
He truly didn't care whether this world was destroyed; he was only doing all this for one specific person.
If a person like Luo Mu were weak, he would still send shivers down some people's spines.
Yet, such a person happened to be incredibly powerful.
They suddenly felt a little emotional that Luo Mu was a person from Whale Fall City.
Some insiders were even more thankful that Luo Mu had an older brother like Gu Qinghan.
"I feel that if Boss Gu were to run into trouble, Boss Luo might completely unleash his nature, right?"
An expert who had followed Luo Mu from the very beginning suddenly whispered, a hint of emotion in his voice.
A female Professional next to him nodded in deep agreement and said seriously:
"Yes, I remember when more than thirty of us ambushed Boss Luo, and only a dozen or so were left.
When he asked who was willing to follow him, only I immediately agreed.
The rest were completely electrocuted into charcoal by Boss Luo..."
Hearing this, the few people nearby did not show the slightest hint of surprise.
Because this experience was basically the same as what they had gone through.
Although they were the ones who had initiated hostility toward Luo Mu, his madness and coldness caused them to feel fear deep in their hearts.
They all had a feeling that Boss Luo had a demon sealed inside his heart.
But fortunately, there was a person named Gu Qinghan who reinforced the seal on this demon.
Several screams sounded again, bringing the experts' attention back to reality.
And they saw that only the last three Dragonmen remained over there.
The remaining Dragonmen were all convulsing on the ground, their charred appearance sending shivers down people's spines.
"I'll talk, I'll talk! Please just kill me directly! I don't want to die like this!"
"I'll talk too! Please give me a knife, I want to end my own life."
"I know more than both of them! Please, just give me a quick death!"
As soon as one of the three spoke, the other two scrambled to beg for mercy as well.
However, the content of their pleas seemed strange; they were asking to die without being tortured.
"Very good, all three of you have information to reveal.
But I still only have two knives. What do you think we should do?"
Luo Mu threw the two most ordinary weapons onto the ground and watched the three Dragonmen with a smile.
The three Dragonmen were silent for a second, and then they scrambled to speak about what they knew.
However, Luo Mu had people separate them into three different locations for individual interrogation.
The storage rings on these Dragonmen had already been confiscated, and since they were away from the water, they were like fish on a cutting board, completely at their mercy.
And after about ten minutes, the interrogation was over.
Luo Mu had the interrogators compare notes, and finally looked at one of the Dragonmen with an evil smile.
"Too bad. The information you know isn't as much as your companions', is it?"
A lightning spear appeared in his hand, and he slowly walked toward the Dragonman.
The Dragonman shook his head and slowly retreated, tears pouring from his eyes, and even his recently dried pants were now soaked.
He had been so frightened that he became incontinent, because in his eyes, Luo Mu was simply a demon surrounded by lightning!
At the critical moment, he suddenly thought of something and shouted loudly:
"I know one more thing! I think I saw White Shark meet with other Dragonmen!
But they seemed unwilling to meet us on the surface, and their appearance was also different from ours!"
Luo Mu's footsteps slowly stopped, and he looked at the expert responsible for the interrogation with a questioning look.
"The other person also mentioned this point; it should be true."
Luo Mu nodded, looking at the three Dragonmen, who were all somewhat mentally unstable, and said:
"Kill them all, then dispose of the bodies. This scene is quite frightening."
Hearing Luo Mu's words, the surrounding experts showed strange expressions.
Frightening... Didn't you create this scene yourself? And yet you find it frightening.
But when they looked at Luo Mu again, they found that a smile had appeared on his face.
This smile was completely different from the previous one that hid killing intent; it was an extremely radiant smile.
They even had a feeling that Luo Mu at this moment truly looked like a bright and cheerful young man.
Luo Mu suddenly took off his upper garment and changed into a clean top.
He looked up at the sky, seemingly having spotted something.
Following his gaze, everyone discovered that black birds were rapidly approaching in the distant sky.
Luo Mu recognized these large birds; they were one of Gu Qinghan's subordinates.
Looking at the figure on the black crow leading the group, Luo Mu quickly walked toward the city, the smile on his face growing even brighter.
