Chapter 383 Purpose and Reason

Chapter 383 Purpose and Reason

Camus is half an Aquarius director?

The red-haired director hesitated slightly after hearing this, still feeling that this answer was a little far-fetched, but out of trust in Leon, she continued to think along this line of thought.

Indeed, according to the General Administration’s past record of using the [Instruction List], if the scope is not specifically emphasized, it can only target one person.

Therefore, if the two souls separated by the Aquarius director are sufficiently different from each other, and the separation is completed many years before the [Directive List] takes effect, it is indeed possible to escape the effect of the [Directive List].

But the soul is different from flesh and blood. Once it’s gone, it’s gone. If it’s only slightly injured, it can heal itself, but this kind of thorough separation is almost impossible to restore.

And he saw with his own eyes that the strongest part of the "Evil Soul" entered the depths of the dead world. Even if the remaining half of the Aquarius director could still retain the status of a true god, his own strength would plummet.

According to common sense, his remaining Lyon value is estimated to be only in the early 30s, and at most it will not reach 40 points. The Lyon value of an ordinary first-level cleaner is roughly between 30 and 50 points, so the current Aquarius director is considered weak among the first-level cleaners.

As for his own strength, he is one of the best among the directors of the Zodiac Branch. When activating the blessing of the Star Palace, his own Lyon value can even temporarily exceed 70 points, which is almost twice as much as his.

The gap is so huge that it cannot be made up by some small tricks. What's more, he has the blessing of [Blood Killing Hair] No. 013. Where does Aquarius get the confidence to cause trouble under his nose?

……

"Leon, I always feel like something is wrong."

After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't figure out where Director Aquarius's confidence came from. The red-haired director couldn't help but frowned and said:

“He paid the price of half his soul this time, and finally managed to get away with it, temporarily avoiding the sanctions of the General Administration. Logically, he should lie dormant for a while.

But not only did he not hide, but he risked being killed by me and came to the capital to collect a large number of dreams. He even did not hide it after meeting you and threatened to do something within three days. This made me feel very strange. "

After taking a sip of the cold tea, the red-haired director tapped the table subconsciously, and continued with a frown:
"The night of three days from now is when the Soul-Fallen Black Abyss and reality will completely overlap. What he said is equivalent to telling us the specific time of action. But given his current situation, he can't possibly be my opponent. Where does he get the confidence to provoke me?

Also, from what I understand about him, Aquarius is a very purposeful person and will hardly do anything meaningless.

Whether it is the capital or our branch, there seems to be nothing worthy of his covetousness. He can't open the most valuable [Twelve Ant Nest], and he can't take my [Blood Hair of Slaughter] away. So what does he want?"

What does Aquarius want...

After listening to the red-haired chief's analysis, Leon's brows also frowned.

If we say that Aquarius Director’s biggest obsession is to replace Taurus Director and enter the Watch Palace, but this road has basically been blocked.

The six abnormal objects used to usurp the identity of "Rising Palace Man" were still in his and the rebels' hands, and he simply couldn't get them all; and the target, Director Taurus, was in self-isolation at the headquarters, not giving him any chance to contact them;
Even if he somehow managed to gather things of similar effect and actually sneaked into the closed headquarters, he would not be a match for the three directors and would probably be killed as soon as he broke in.

If he wants to continue to fulfill his greatest obsession, he should first find a way to restore his strength, at least to the level of a small bureau chief, before... Wait! Restore strength? Leon seemed to have grasped a vague clue, and after a slight hesitation, he reminded him uncertainly:
"Director, I think we should think in a different direction. Instead of continuing to think about what Aquarius wants to do in Wangdu, we should first think about what he needs most right now."

What does Aquarius need most?
After hearing what Leon said, the red-haired chief's eyes couldn't help but narrow slightly.

Yes, no matter what Director Aquarius wants in the end, what he needs most right now is to make up for his strength that has fallen to the bottom due to the loss of most of his soul.

Only by improving his strength to a level that is almost the same as Director Taurus's, will it be possible to replace Director Taurus and ascend to the Watch Palace by taking over his body.

As for the method that can heal the damage to his soul and bring him back to his peak... The Dark Abyss of the Fallen Soul! The King of Nightmare!!!

After figuring out the most crucial point with Leon's reminder, the red-haired director couldn't help but gasp.

Trauma caused by a missing soul is unsolvable in most cases, but just as the rules of the world of the dead do not recognize the physical body, the rules of the world of dreams also do not recognize the existence of the soul.

The basis of the existence of the dream world is memory and fantasy, so as long as a person's memory is complete and his thinking ability is normal, even if Aquarius' soul is fragmented, the dream world will still recognize him as a "complete" person.

If the Nightmare King succeeds in arriving and is willing to help, he can permanently exchange parts of dreams and reality!

At that time, you only need to create a "complete" Aquarius director in the dream world, then let the real Aquarius director fall asleep, and then the King of Nightmares will take action to permanently exchange the two.

Then, the Aquarius director with a defective soul will be directly turned into a false "nightmare" under the influence of the rules of the dream world, and the complete Aquarius director in the dream will wake up in the real reality!

As for the Nightmare King, why would he help Director Aquarius...The document that claimed to be from the Watch Palace, which recorded the locations of the thirty-five Nightmare Black Cult strongholds and was used to prevent the arrival of the Fallen Soul Abyss and the Nightmare King, was delivered by Director Aquarius himself!

……

That's too late……

After taking a deep breath, the red-haired director leaned back in his chair, lowered his head and sighed:

"No wonder Aquarius wasn't afraid of me knowing he was still alive. It's been almost two days since Emma and the others left. It's too late to find out now..."

What's late?
After hearing the red-haired chief's sigh, Leon was startled for a moment, then hurriedly asked what had happened.

The red-haired director rubbed his brows and said concisely:

"If I'm not mistaken, Director Aquarius should be cooperating with the Nightmare King. The document he sent earlier is probably wrong. The location marked on it is probably not the location of the Nightmare Black Cult's base. The coming of the Nightmare King is probably inevitable."
