Chapter 133 Qian Zihao's Ring
Su Mu picked up the ring and looked at it: "Is this... Qian Zihao's ring?"
His observation ability has always been sharp, so he naturally noticed that Qian Zihao had worn this ring on his hand.
Nangong Mengli nodded: "Yes, this is a silver first-level treasure [Energy Devouring Spirit Ring]. I took it off when I killed Qian Zihao just now. After all, it's not a waste of effort to kill him."
Su Mu glanced at the pale Nangong Mengli and agreed with the other party's powerful logic. He wiped the ring carefully with a white handkerchief and then put it on.
This silver ring is very simple in style, without any patterns, just like a very ordinary silver ring. When he put it on, with the influx of mental power, he immediately understood the role of the [Energy Devouring Spirit Ring].
It can directly convert physical energy or mental energy into attack power. For example, an adult man can punch with 200 kilograms of force with all his strength, but after using the [Energy Devouring Spirit Ring], the ring can absorb the energy stored in the body and burst it all out, allowing you to punch with 1,000 kilograms of force.
But the price is to become skinny, because the energy stored in the body is drained.
This conversion also applies to mental power, which can be converted into strength, but few people do this, because it is ten times more difficult to recover mental power than to recover physical power. Physical weakness can be compensated by eating and drinking, but mental power rarely has any means of compensation. Usually, it depends on time to recover slowly.
And excessive extraction of mental power may turn oneself into a fool.
Su Mu has no such worries. He thinks this ring is very suitable for him because he has enough mental power and this ring can convert mental power into real combat power.
He also roughly understands why Qian Zihao wants to eat so much. He should be storing energy. Once in danger, he can burst out with terrifying power that is not weaker than that of a transcendent with the [Energy Devouring Spirit Ring].
"This ring is not a thank-you gift. I said that I will definitely repay you. As long as I have it, I can give it to you." Nangong Mengli leaned weakly on the back of the chair, and her eyelids could no longer open.
"You know, I've waited for this day for too long. I'll never forget the day my mother died. She grabbed my hand and told me to forget hatred and not to seek revenge.
But I really can't forget that the hatred of the Nangong family and my mother are always reminding me. In fact, I've been confused and have read many books that persuade people to be good. They say that people can't live for hatred, but should let go and cherish the living.
But where are the living people? I'm the only one left. I'm the only one in the entire Nangong family! If I don't avenge them, who else can?
As long as I think of those who killed my family, they are still living happily in this world. I hate them! I hate them. Why should we die? Why?"
Nangong Mengli is not talking to Su Mu, but more like talking to herself, a self-narration of an avenger.
Her head is getting heavier and heavier, her eyelids have fallen more than once, and her voice is getting smaller and smaller.
In a trance, she smelled a hint of floral fragrance, and the refreshing fragrance penetrated into her nose, making her feel itchy.
Where does the floral fragrance come from?
She opened her eyes with some effort, and what she saw was a broken rose, as if it had been thrown to the ground and stepped on twice, very ugly... very ugly...
Su Mu's voice rang out from the side: "Although it's a bit inappropriate, it's almost twelve o'clock, so... happy birthday."
Nangong Mengli stared blankly at the rose in front of her. At this moment, she seemed to have forgotten her hatred and fatigue.
"Where did you get the flower?"
"I picked it up from Qian Zihao. Just like you said, after all, it's not in vain to kill him after all the effort, right?"
Puff.
Nangong Mengli chuckled, and her eyes, which were filled with hatred before, softened a lot. She carefully took the rose that was about to break, lifted up the scattered hair, and sniffed it gently.
Her eyes curved into a pair of beautiful crescents, and her bright eyes reflected the neon lights passing by the roadside, as well as Su Mu and the rose.
"Thank you, Sumu."
Sumu drove without looking around, and the bright and dark lights of the neon lights on the roadside kept interweaving on his angular face.
"You're welcome. It's only right to send blessings on your birthday."
After saying that, Sumu suddenly felt his lips were a little wet. He was sure that he didn't lick his lips, which made him frown slightly. The air humidity in the car should not be so high.
Unless...
He looked sideways at Nangong Mengli, but found that the other party had fallen asleep holding the rose tightly, obviously because of excessive consumption of power and too much fatigue.
.......
.......
One day later, the entire Star City was under unprecedented martial law. A large number of law enforcement officers wearing uniforms and guns on their waists appeared in every corner and carried out a carpet-style investigation.
The Star City was in a state of panic, and even the pedestrians on the street in the past were much less. The most pitiful were the shops selling tuxedos. Several of them were directly closed because the styles they sold were very similar to those worn by Pride, the head of the Seven Deadly Sins, and they were taken back for severe torture.
The name of the Seven Deadly Sins of Arrogance seemed to resound throughout the entire Star City overnight. To be precise, not only Star City, but also other surrounding cities and even the entire Red Flame Empire were alarmed.
The murder of an imperial noble was a big deal in the Chiyan Empire. Even during wars with other countries, nobles had the right to pardon. Even if a noble was captured, he would be treated favorably by the enemy country and wait for the other family to redeem him with a large sum of money.
This was the case even during wars, let alone during peacetime. The news of Murong Zhuo's murder was like a stone that caused a thousand waves, occupying the front page of major newspapers.
The Xingcheng noble circle was saying that the imperial family was furious and sent a golden strongman to the Xingcheng directly to catch the Seven Deadly Sins - Pride!
The Seven Deadly Sins, a non-existent organization, also successfully topped the wanted list of the Chiyan Empire, and for a time it even overshadowed the Revolutionary Army.
Because even the Revolutionary Army had never killed nobles. According to rumors, they only captured nobles and used them in exchange for a large amount of resources.
"I heard about the fire at the Platinum Hotel yesterday? I heard that a noble died in it."
"I heard that not only one noble died, but many celebrity bosses died, even the richest man in Xingcheng, Qian Zihao, died."
