169. Shadow
"You are the one who wants to kill me." Maren could feel that the shadow was slowly "living" and could sense that his form of existence was quite unique.
Shadow should be slightly slower than Mar En to realize this:
"It seems that I am one of many shadows, even when you came here, you triggered the defense mechanism I left in Thunderstorm's brain, which means he has lost.
"I don't think he found Qin Lan's location, right?"
Maren said:
"You're not exactly a shadow."
The shadow's body fell slightly backwards:
"Yes, you should be able to detect that I am not an independent soul that actually exists, but I am enough to stop you from moving forward. You can no longer find any information I left in the thunderstorm. Go back.
"You can kill him or take him to make a deal with me, but since you have reached this position, you should already know what order I gave, right?"
Mar En nodded slightly, and then an office chair appeared behind him.
He sat down on the armrest:
"You told him to kill me.
"This actually makes me a little incomprehensible. You obviously have other purposes. Is my death important to you?"
Shadow shrugged at him:
"Although I gave him the order, it was not what I mean, but some politicians in the federal MPs who I had never met before. They probably made this decision after reading your report, but I don't know what they think.
"I'm just a reflection of their will."
Mar En looked at him curiously:
"That is, you have no opinion on me, so if that's the case, can you tell me how to get those politicians to divert their attention from me? After all, I'm just an ordinary unlucky member of the Savior League.
"I don't want to be missed by them."
He would say this because of the prophecy of the God-Sky Walker. One of the three paths she pointed out was a deal with the Federation, so he made this request tentatively.
If Mar En really wanted to live, there would be no danger as long as he stayed in the abnormal control bureau. Therefore, he was not as worried about the federal hostility as he claimed - he was deliberately exposing his wrong needs and giving the other party the opportunity to use his own opportunity to complete the transaction.
The shadow smiled with a teasing meaning:
"Sorry, but I don't have any reason to give you any advice, let alone we are not really talking, otherwise I might give you some help because of my mood..."
Marne was not surprised by his answer, but he still heard what he was expecting:
"This is the point. You are not the real shadow. Are you willing to exist like this?"
Shadow raised her eyebrows in surprise:
"It's a good way to sow discord, but if something you say may happen, 'I' won't let me exist in this form and talk to you, but you don't have to be particularly afraid...
"Because I don't take you seriously at all, and the federal resources are limited. You don't have to be afraid that they will come to you again or send enemies that are much stronger than him in the short period of time after the failure of the thunderstorm.
“Because you are not worth it.”
The Federation is a cold-blooded and ruthless machine, driven only by various interests. The reason why politicians wanted to kill Ma En was just because they were worried that he was related to the Gods and Skies was not likely to delay the progress of the truce between the Savior League because of this incident.
After he killed the thunderstorm, the Federation will no longer consume unnecessary resources on him.
Because it's not worth it.
But this is just the reason why they want to kill Ma En, not a shadow.
Half of his answers were lies. Shadow not only knew the reason why federal politicians wanted to kill Mar En, but not only that, in fact, he was also secretly causing the killing of Mar En.
Although his reason is actually different from that of politicians, it also originated from the Divine Skies Walker. However, after Marx and En arrived here, the shadow threw away the idea he had just made and instead had other ideas.
"But actually there are some other small deals between us," said Shadow. "I think you should be able to think of the Federation's goal to seize your goal."
Mar En pretended to say:
"You don't have to think about getting Qin Lan's whereabouts from me."
Shadow smiled proudly:
"That is to say, you do know that I was not that sure yet, but don't worry, because we didn't do anything to Qin Lan, because her sister has already won her safety and freedom.
“Or it is, she has won all the members of the Savior League, and my subordinates have sent unilateral messages to several members of the Savior League in the Yugoslavia, expressing our desire for a truce and peace, and most importantly…
“Our common threat.”
Mar En asked curiously:
"What threat?"
Shadow said with a little reproach:
"You have reached a covenant with the Moon God, but you don't know what you are doing. You who claim to be a Saving Alliance are pushing this world into the abyss..."
Marne interrupted:
"Did you mean we are repeating what you have done?"
Shadow coughed twice without embarrassment:
"Yes, we did have some cooperation with the gods, but that was all under our control. They were going to face obstacles from the entire Federation, but your ally, Moon God, is completely different.
"As a telepath, you should be able to detect her danger.
"Actually, I was a little surprised that you could escape her influence. She had a strong possessive desire for the spiritual realm in the Yugoslavia and even exterminated almost all the wild spiritual creatures in this land, which means she would definitely not watch you invade her territory like this.
"This is also the reason why I am willing to discuss this with you. You did not fall in front of her. There are not many spiritual entities in the IV level that can do this.
"Out of a confidentiality agreement, I can only say now that she is threatening our world. If you and us continue to fight each other like this, she and other gods will become nightmares for all of us humans, and we have to contact Qin Lan."
Ma En said without changing his face:
"I can negotiate for her, we can't expose her to your horizon, and now I can't be sure whether what you said is true or false. If you have sincerity, you can send someone to negotiate with us.
"But can this conversation be known by the real shadow? You must know that you are just..."
"A shadow?" the man said with a smile, "Yes, but we have a complicated way of existence. At this moment, I am just a defense measure in Thunder Rain's brain, but it will not be there later."
