Chapter 867: Chapter 28: Who Am I (Extra Chapter for Monthly Votes) Chapter 867: Chapter 28: Who Am I (Extra Chapter for Monthly Votes) Dismembered?

Hearing this extremely vivid word, Lin Xian suddenly recalled the battle that took place in the dilapidated factory half a month ago...

the clash between the real and the fake Yu Xi.

The battle between these two Terminators was rapidly changing and thrilling, their blades practically licking blood.

Each had the strength to kill the other with a single stroke, yet amidst their attack and defense, neither could land a finishing blow.

But in the end, it was Lin Yuxi who gained the upper hand, seizing the opportunity as the fake Yu Xi tried to grab an electric shock gun, she took a step forward to anticipate the position and, reversing her grip on the dagger, she swept out a semicircular arc, beheading the fake Yu Xi in one swift motion!

At that moment...

...

The head of the fake Yu Xi, with eyes wide open, flew into the air askew, its pupils seemingly still moving, and even the brain hadn’t yet realized it had been separated from the body.

Moreover, the blood spurting out from the severed carotid artery was like a fountain.

That scene.

Could be described as a world-famous painting.

Deeply imprinted in Lin Xian’s mind.

But according to Angelica’s words...

It seemed that only 40 days later, he would become part of a world-famous painting himself.

Who had killed him?

Who was the murderer?

The first answer that came to Lin Xian’s mind was only one—

[Lin Yuxi]!

One should know that the real world is not like the movies; severing a person’s neck with brute force is not something that can be done so easily.

It was only enhanced individuals from the future like Lin Yuxi and the fake Yu Xi who possessed such exaggerated brute strength.

They could easily rip off car doors, possessed great strength in their hands, and naturally could use sharp knives and daggers to behead someone.

Furthermore...

Beheading as a method of murder was indeed a bit too violent.

Friends who often commit murders would know that if you really want to bring someone to their demise, stabbing is easier; one generally wouldn’t consider beheading, which is more difficult, prone to errors and evasion, and not conducive to exerting force.

But for enhanced individuals like Lin Yuxi, such concerns did not exist.

Direct beheading was fast and accurate, a move that subdued the enemy without any resistance.

Apart from her.

Lin Xian really couldn’t think of anyone else who would kill him in such a brutal and arrogant manner.

He touched his own neck.

He felt as if he sensed a tinge of coolness.

“Did they catch the murderer?”

Lin Xian looked at Angelica:

“My death was so tragic, just like that, and nothing came of it?

Did the police catch the murderer?”

Angelica shook her head:

“I’m not clear on that, because my notebook isn’t that detailed, it just recorded the fact of your death.

However, I would guess that even if the direct murderer was caught, the mastermind behind it all certainly wasn’t caught.”

“Otherwise...

why would my notebook explicitly mention seeking revenge for you?

Considering my personality, I think neither the direct murderer nor the Black Hand were caught, which is why I would think about avenging you.”

Lin Xian nodded.

Actually, this question wasn’t important.

Whether it was the direct murderer or the Black Hand, they were his enemies all the same, who naturally needed to be guarded against and eliminated.

Mercy to an enemy is cruelty to oneself.

He understood this very well.

Who would have thought...

The battle between himself and Lin Yuxi didn’t seem to have finished, and moreover, it would erupt after 40 days, culminating with the landing of his severed head as the true conclusion.

“Talk about a lingering presence.”

He muttered under his breath.

Let’s put that question aside for now, there’s another matter to consider.

Who was the murderer who killed Jask in The Fifth Dreamland?

As the governor of Mars, there weren’t many who had the capability to take him down.

Because he had reached the pinnacle of human civilization.

So...

Was it a traitor from within?

Or an enemy outside of humanity?
