Chapter 165

“Kid! Gun!”

“Bump! Bump! Bump! Bump!”

Just as Leon was quickly interrogating himself using the power of the Black Goat, a blond attendant who had fainted outside the door suddenly drew the nail gun from his waist and fired four shots at Leon’s head in succession, forcibly interrupting his interrogation.

Blond? Could someone from the Lane family have joined the rebels too? Thanks to the Holy Spirit Pendant’s shield, all four nails were completely blocked. Looking far away, seeing the blond attendant skillfully replacing the air reservoir and raising the gun again to shoot at him, Leon frowned slightly feeling something wasn’t right, changing the invisible long nail prepared to shoot at the other’s head to aim at the blond attendant’s nail gun instead.

“Crack!”

Only to hear a sharp sound of metal breaking, the freshly replaced air reservoir instantly exploded, the rapidly expanding compressed air pushed him back directly, causing him to crash into the wall behind him with a bang.

“Shit!”

Looking at the nail gun in his hand with its air duct shattered, already unusable, the blond attendant couldn’t help but curse under his breath. He then threw the nail gun towards Leon, rolled his eyes upwards, and fell backwards unconscious.

At the same time, another attendant standing in Leon’s blind spot suddenly stood up, also drawing the nail gun from his waist, and fired four nails at Leon’s back of the head again.

“Bump! Bump! Bump! Bump!”

Indeed, that person from the Lane family was just being controlled, not the real entity of another rebel. As for the ability of the other rebel, it should be some method to forcibly control others’ actions.

After hearing the sound and turning around, looking at the nails on the ground and the distant attendant still shooting at him, Leon couldn’t help but take a deep breath, and cold sweat immediately soaked his back.

No wonder the fatality rate of the cleaners is so high. When opposing various anomalous items with strange abilities, especially those controlling anomalous items, there really can’t be even the slightest negligence!

If I had used a bit less brain just now and directly killed the blond attendant with the Holy Spirit Pendant, not only would I have mistakenly killed an innocent person under control, but if I assumed the enemy was dealt with and prematurely retracted the shield to save energy, I would definitely have been shot in the head by this black gun coming from a blind spot!

…

Shit! His ability is so annoying! Watching how “himself” didn’t care about the shooting and stood within the invisible shield, frowning and observing the surrounding situation, the person controlling the blond attendant couldn’t help but grit his teeth.

Having emptied all the nails from this attendant’s gun but still unable to break through Leon’s shield, he had no choice but to switch to a new body and continue shooting at Leon from another blind spot.

Later on, when the previous body had just pressed the trigger and the nails hadn’t even left the barrel, he had already switched to a new body and started shooting furiously, the gunshots almost merging into one continuous sound.

Unfortunately, no matter from which position he fired, even those impossible-to-see blind spots could not break through the invisible “shell” around the target. All hundreds of nails were deflected without a single one entering within half a meter of the target.

How am I supposed to kill him?

Watching the “material” available for “parasitism” inside the hall being taken down one by one by the target, with almost everyone left unarmed, the second rebel couldn’t help but drop the nail gun in his hand helplessly.

No wonder Barton and Samantha fell into his hands one after another. This guy’s ability may be simple and brutal, but it can both attack and defend, and the strength on both offense and defense clearly exceeds the range of regular firearms.

If it’s a sudden assassination, I might think of a way to ambush him, but in this situation where the opponent is already on guard, my ability is completely countered by him!

Giving up? Then it’s my turn! After the gunshots stopped, Leon looked at the middle-aged attendant who had voluntarily ceased firing from afar, then calmly opened his mouth to ask:

“Tell me, is your true self nearby?”

？！！！ Here it comes! That deadly interrogation method! Upon hearing Leon’s question, the middle-aged attendant couldn’t help but startle violently, then immediately continued shooting and switched to another body to keep shooting, trying to use the noisy gunfire to cover the devilish questioning of the other side.

“Ah, so your true self is nearby too.”

Turning his head to look at another attendant behind him, destroying the nail gun in his hand and cutting off the deafening gunfire, Leon couldn’t help but slightly curl the corner of his mouth, then continued asking:

“Is your true self in the hall?”

“Not in the hall? Then in the manor? In the outer area of the manor?”

“Not in any of these places? Then in the core building area? Near the main building? Is it a very close position to the hall, but not inside the hall?”

“Near the hall… what does your true self look like? A man? Fat? Thin? Elderly? Young?”

“…”

As Leon’s calm questions continued, the expressions on the faces of the people controlled by the second rebel became increasingly terrified.

Even if he switches bodies and stays completely still, lying on the ground pretending to be unconscious, Leon’s questions only slowed down slightly, continuing steadily and continuously.

He felt as if a ferocious tiger was layer by layer peeling away the wrapping around him. Every time the other side asked a question, a layer of his disguise was casually peeled off, reducing the protection between him and the tiger’s jaws.

At first, he merely heard the “tiger’s” voice, but as more layers of “protection” were stripped away, he gradually felt the forceful pressure from the tiger’s claws.

Slowly, it seemed like he could already smell the blood in the tiger’s mouth, feel the jagged teeth hanging with shredded meat lightly scraping across his neck covered in goosebumps, separated only by the last thin layer of protection…

“In outside the hall but very close, a rather slim young man, isn’t it?”

Summarizing the answers he had obtained, Leon tilted his head and thought for a moment, then revealed an expression of understanding.

“Being able to enter the Leon Manor but not entering the hall… your disguised identity should be a servant or an attendant, right?

I remember when I just got off the carriage, there was a relatively short attendant responsible for carrying the footstool for getting out of the carriage… wouldn’t that be you?”

“…”

He knows! He knows who I am!

Seeing his true self exposed, the rebel almost went crazy under the tightening pressure of this noose.

“Devil! You devil!!!”

A trembling fat woman lying at the door suddenly jumped up with a shout, her voice tinged with crying, then fell back down with a thud.

At the same time, in Leon’s spiritual vision, a soul filled with terror, like being chased by something, rushed out of the hall like a frightened deer, hastily diving into a body, then sprinted madly towards the outskirts of the manor! Never again! I will never come again!
