The Black Serpent Has Already Become a Good Person in Luo Chen's Image
Although Luo Chen's words just now sounded like the incomprehensible roar of a mental patient.
But for some reason, Talulah, who had given up all hope, now felt that there was still a chance.
Hopefully, this guy has some other tricks up his sleeve.
Perhaps force could indeed suppress Koschei.
However.
Luo Chen simply took off the Reunion Movement armband and wrapped it around his palm like a bandage.
Even after Koschei possessed Talulah's body, his expression remained unchanged.
He was like a composed and confident orator.
"Grandma, you're back?"
What did you do?
The Black Snake's voice was like a whisper from the abyss, filled with an irresistible majesty.
She clearly heard Luo Chen's statement about disciplining her.
She wasn't angry at all.
This was the first time she had ever met someone as interesting as Luo Chen.
Moreover, even though the other party clearly knew she was a fake Talulah, she remained so calm and confident.
A feeling of watching a clown performance arose in Black Snake's heart, making her smile involuntarily.
Black Snake used his toe to pick up the sword stained with Luo Chen's blood from the ground and put it in his hand.
Then, with an elegant turn, she pressed the tip of her sword against Luo Chen's neck:
"Was it your Originium Arts that just now that allowed my consciousness to leave this body?"
Instead of answering her question, Luo Chen, like a fair and impartial judge, asked her questions in return.
"I just received a report from the plaintiff, Talulah, who accuses you of illegally taking her body and using it to commit unsavory acts."
"Including but not limited to colluding with criminal gangs and instigating others to commit serious illegal acts such as murder, fraud, and human trafficking."
"Within Ursus, individuals have been using violence, threats, harassment, and other means to carry out large-scale extortion, gang fights, provoking trouble, intentional injury, and other illegal and criminal activities, severely disrupting Ursus's economic and social order."
"What do you have to say in your defense against her accusations, suspect?"
"...?" Even the well-informed Black Snake hadn't expected Luo Chen to be in a situation where someone had a sword pointed at his neck.
He even started playing legal games with her.
Does this guy not realize how serious the problem is?
Now, he holds his life in his own hands.
The Black Snake remained silent for a long time before slowly speaking:
"So, what do you want to do? Do you want to condemn me in the name of justice?"
"Don't be naive. So-called justice doesn't exist. Everyone's actions have their own purpose."
"Public and private interests are inherently contradictory. If everything I do is for the sake of Ursus, can you say I'm doing something wrong?"
"Isn't it just to sacrifice those lowly fellows in exchange for the overall glory of Ursus?"
"Or are you saying that only what you believe to be just is just?"
"Can the looting and murder that the Reunion Movement commits in its pursuit of expansion be considered just?"
Talulah was slightly taken aback by Koschei's statement.
She didn't know how to refute Koschei.
Although she longed for a place on this land where everyone lived in harmony, where order was maintained, and where there was no discrimination or prejudice.
But the reality is that whether she wants to lead the Infected to occupy a living space or obtain the most basic food and water, she needs to engage in violent battles to obtain these resources.
However, Luo Chen was not affected in the slightest by the Black Snake's words.
He remained as calm and composed as ever.
"Suspect, you may not understand the situation. I'm not discussing philosophy with you today."
"We're discussing legal issues now. Do you have anything to add regarding your illegal actions?"
Black Snake: "Is the law you speak of absolutely correct? Can it represent...?"
Luo Chen: "Don't you have any objection to your criminal behavior?"
Black Snake: "Putting my question aside, isn't there anything wrong with this land? The lives of a few Infected are nothing compared to the entirety of Ursus..."
Luo Chen: "The evidence against you is conclusive."
"???"
The Black Snake, who had initially thought Luo Chen was going to morally condemn him,
I instantly felt like everything I had just said had been for nothing.
Whether it's deception or negotiation, the most important thing is to draw the other party into the context of your conversation.
However, Luo Chen wasn't buying it at all.
If it's something irrelevant, it's as if she didn't hear it at all; she won't be bothered by others in the slightest.
Is he even human?
Why does it look like a human-mimicking machine?
"..." The Black Snake fell silent.
Luo Chen took it as her tacit agreement:
"It seems you have no doubts about your crime."
"As the leader of the Reunion Movement, I now pronounce judgment on your criminal acts."
"I demand that you immediately return the body of the victim Talulah, and spend your long life making amends for the mistakes you have made."
"You're really interesting!"
Upon hearing Luo Chen's verdict, the Black Snake was not afraid at all; on the contrary, it found it even more interesting.
As a near-immortal being, the Black Snake Mercenary, apart from being interested in the development of the country of Ursus, had long lost the emotions and desires that a sentient being should have.
Constantly changing bodies and selecting suitable seedbeds is simply to fulfill one's sole goal and belief.
She didn't care even if it meant countless people would die because of her.
Anyway, those people's lives are short anyway; dying at twenty or seventy makes no difference.
After all, although there are many people, there are only a few types of human nature.
Both idealistic and realistic!
Black Snake glanced at them and knew who they were and what use they were to Ursus.
But Luo Chen was different from everyone she had ever met before.
This guy isn't human.
From personality to thought process, he doesn't seem like a typical intelligent being.
Black Snake decided to say a few words in agreement with Luo Chen to see what other tricks he had up his sleeve.
Black Snake narrowed his eyes, gripped his sword tighter, and his tone grew increasingly cold:
Even if I confess to the crimes you mentioned, what can you do to me?
"I can take your life at any moment now."
After hearing the Black Snake's honest confession, Luo Chen nodded in satisfaction and then continued to ask:
"Very good, it seems you have no more questions. I wonder if Talulah herself has anything to add?"
Talulah, who was observing from the sidelines, heard Luo Chen ask her a question.
I'm also at a loss for words.
She felt that she simply couldn't understand Luo Chen's thoughts and ideas.
"She has no objections, what are you going to do?" Black Snake answered for Talulah, then awaited Luo Chen's next reaction.
Luo Chen continued:
"Since the suspect has confessed to his crime and the victim has nothing further to add, it's time for him to go to trial."
Luo Chen met the Black Snake's eyes and instantly activated a system skill, intending to alter the Black Snake's perception.
The moment the system's power was activated, Black Snake's consciousness was detached from Talulah's body.
Talulah, having regained control of her body, stared at Luo Chen in shock.
She now understood why Luo Chen was so fearless; it turned out that Koschei was also prey in his eyes.
"Your Originium Arts are very interesting."
The Black Snake that was ripped off did not leave Talulah's body, because its curse remained on Talulah.
No matter what tricks Luo Chen's Originium Arts have up his sleeve, unless he physically destroys Talulah's body, he can always come back again when he finds an opportunity.
"Now I will announce your punishment."
"Do whatever you want, at worst we'll just kill Talulah." Black Snake didn't care about Luo Chen at all.
The worst crime she committed was death.
She's died countless times already, so what's one more time?
Now that he has discovered Luo Chen's trump card—the ability to restrict others' Originium Arts —once he gets a new body and sends a group of assassins, taking down Luo Chen will be a piece of cake.
"Suspect... you listen to me."
"I'm listening..." the Black Snake said dismissively.
Luo Chen continued:
"As punishment for you, I'm going to modify your G-spot now."
"From now on, you will only feel the meaning of life and happiness when you help the weak, uphold justice, and protect the underprivileged."
Chapter 232 The Black Snake has already fallen into Luo Chen's form.
"Mental Originium Arts?"
"Is that why you've grown so quickly?"
Black Snake clearly hasn't realized the seriousness of the situation.
Or perhaps she simply didn't take Luo Chen's Originium Arts seriously.
As an immortal being, I have naturally seen countless bizarre abilities.
She had long heard of the Demon King's mind control and brainwashing techniques.
Naturally, corresponding contingency plans were made.
She can eliminate the influence of this kind of mind-controlling Originium Arts by stripping away the consciousness of a single individual.
In other words, Luo Chen's mental control over her was ineffective.
Once you leave Talulah's body, the effects will disappear.
As a seasoned expert in the field of brainwashing, Black Snake faced Luo Chen's attempt to control his mind.
A disdainful smile curled at the corner of his lips.
Her eyes revealed disdain, as if she scoffed at Luo Chen's Originium Arts.
"You're saying this vague concept is like thin paper, easily torn to shreds with the slightest force."
"How to help the weak and how to uphold justice are both vague concepts. As long as the definitions are not clear, the final result may be completely different from what you expect."
The Black Snake's voice was deep and magnetic.
Although Luo Chen had taken control of her consciousness, she didn't forget to influence Luo Chen in return.
