682: Chapter 682 Don’t Talk Nonsense Here
"Jiang Ziya? We don't have anyone like that here," the Security Guard said, somewhat amused.
What era was this? Still Jiang Ziya.
The Masked Man was suspicious.
These words didn't sound fake.
Using such a tone was very disrespectful. If he intended to hide something, he wouldn't speak like that.
He now understood that he might have been tricked by someone.
Since the person he was looking for wasn't here, he turned and left immediately.
"Want to leave? Impossible!" The Security Guard rushed forward directly.
The Masked Man was a 8th Order Cultivator, but his movement technique was skilled. The Security Guard was a 9th Order Cultivator, but lacked experience.
If it were a one-on-one fight, the two might be evenly matched.
But now the Security Guard also had the mecha and the spaceship base as two helpers, and the situation was completely different.
The Masked Man's moves were interrupted every time, forcing him to constantly retreat.
"Restrain!" the Security Guard commanded.
The mecha suddenly shot out a metal ring, which directly looped around his neck.
Zhang Jue was horrified, but he was too busy dealing with the situation and had no time to block it.
He tried to pull at the metal ring, but once it was locked around his neck, it couldn't be pulled off at all.
"Creak~"
After the ring locked, three needles emerged from its inner wall, piercing directly into his flesh.
Zhang Jue quickly lost his combat ability and was captured directly.
This metal ring was specially prepared for Cultivators, and it contained a certain amount of medicine.
This medicine could hinder the crystals's energy circulation within the body, causing Cultivators to be unable to mobilize these energies.
This was the second side-effect-free method for suppressing abilities provided by Xiao Lin.
The metal ring itself was a small robot with some self-navigation capability, which greatly improved the accuracy of attacks.
"Take him away!" the Security Guard ordered.
Zhang Jue was directly taken into the interrogation room.
"Name!" the Security Guard asked.
"What did you do to me?" Zhang Jue asked weakly.
"I just temporarily suppressed your ability. The mistake you've made now isn't very big. I hope you can cooperate with the investigation. If you don't cooperate, you might permanently become an ordinary person," the Security Guard said patiently.
He had only injured a few students; as long as he admitted his mistake and compensated for the losses, he could naturally be released.
"Ask away," Zhang Jue said.
He knew he had come to the wrong place today, and losing his life here would be even less worthwhile.
"Name!"
"Zhang Jue."
"Zhang with the bow radical?"
"Zhang from 'article,' Jue from 'absolute.'"
"Where are you from?"
"Hushan."
"Hushan? Where do you live now?" The Security Guard was somewhat surprised.
Aside from the underground base in Binjiang City, there were no other human settlements in Hushan Province.
But the Binjiang underground base had always belonged to the Huatong Chamber of Commerce and the Mercenary Guild; it was impossible for such a person to exist there.
"I live in Qizhou now," Zhang Jue replied.
Qizhou City was the capital of Dongzhou Province, and currently, it still had four underground bases.
"Who is Jiang Ziya, and why would he be here?" the Security Guard asked.
He didn't believe this Jiang Ziya was the historical Jiang Ziya.
"This Jiang Ziya is the Jiang Ziya you know," Zhang Jue said.
"I know? What do you mean?" The Security Guard frowned.
"Jiang Grandfather, Jiang Ziya," Zhang Jue said.
"Jiang Grandfather? You came here looking for Jiang Grandfather? I advise you to honestly confess and stop talking nonsense!" The Security Guard slammed the table, warning him.
"I'm not talking nonsense. I heard Jiang Ziya was at Hongmeng Academy, so I came here to find him." Zhang Jue was very depressed; no one believed him when he told the truth.
"Are you taking me for a fool? Look at me, please, am I that foolish? When was Jiang Grandfather a historical figure? Do you think I don't know?"
"If you want to find Jiang Ziya, you should take a time-space spaceship," the Security Guard said.
"Hehe, you are truly humorous. Don't you know that Jiang Ziya is still alive?" Zhang Jue laughed with a mocking look in his eyes.
"What? Are you kidding me?" The Security Guard was stunned.
The person in front of him was definitely a lunatic.
But at this moment, a message came through his Digital Eye.
"System alert: You are currently discussing confidential matters. Please stop the interrogation and report immediately."
The Security Guard was dumbfounded, feeling as if he were dreaming.
But since he had received a system alert, it meant there must be something unknown hidden within. So he didn't dare to delay and immediately reported it.
When Oriental Chen received the message, he found it very strange.
He always felt like someone was orchestrating something behind the scenes.
A Cultivator of unknown identity inexplicably went to Hongmeng Academy to challenge them, and immediately asked for Jiang Ziya. This indicated that either this person had a problem, or someone deliberately tricked him.
Since Cultivators exist, then Jiang Ziya naturally could exist. In other words, this Zhang Jue in front of him was definitely tricked by someone.
But why would someone trick him? What was the purpose?
