Chapter 112

"Chen Zhou, do you know those other guys?"

Qing Cang was narrating, and the others were stunned by the first sentence. They didn't have the energy to pay attention to anyone else. Only Qing Cang, who was speaking, noticed Li Chen Zhou's expression, so he looked at Li Chen Zhou and asked.

Immediately, everyone looked at Li Chen Zhou. Li Chen Zhou was also stunned, and then looked at Qing Cang and said:

"If you're talking about the Controllers, then I should know something!"

"You know their names?"

Qing Cang jumped up, looking at Li Chen Zhou with excitement. They had been investigating for so long, only knowing that there was such a group of guys, and that the Liu family was cooperating with them. He didn't expect Li Chen Zhou to blurt out the names of those guys.

"Yes!"

Li Chen Zhou nodded and said:

"About them, I know something, but you should speak first about the Controllers. After you're done here, I'll tell you what I know!"

"Okay!"

Qing Cang then remembered that he still had to solve the matter at hand, so he continued to speak.

The story began five hundred years ago. Once upon a time, there was a stone monkey... no, there was a person named Shi Hou. He was a member of the Remnant Souls (can hun), a rather righteous organization. It is said that the founder was a soldier.

Because his comrades died in battle, he sent his comrades' ashes back to their hometown, only to find that his comrades' homes had long been razed to the ground, replaced by a large manor.

After inquiring, he learned that his comrades' houses had been targeted by people from a large family, who planned to build a manor there.

But they were unwilling to pay compensation, so they insisted on forcing people to move away. His comrades' families naturally disagreed. As a result, the large family, through manipulation, assassinated those who could be assassinated and framed those who could be framed. In short, they were completely ruined.

The local official was himself a member of that large family and did not report the matter. The military naturally did not know about it. If the founder of Remnant Souls had not insisted on sending his comrades' ashes back, but had sent them back to their hometown through normal procedures, it is estimated that the matter would have been lost without a trace.

The soldier was furious. He contacted the military and demanded a thorough investigation of the matter. The military took it seriously and immediately began to investigate. However, the large family learned of the matter and began to spend a lot of money to build relationships. In the end, they actually managed to settle the matter.

In short, the investigation results from the military were that everything suffered by the soldier's family was accidental, not man-made. Even those who were framed and imprisoned were actually guilty of crimes. There was evidence and witnesses, not a frame-up.

Coincidentally, the few people who were imprisoned either committed suicide or had accidents a few days after the investigation results came out. In short, none of them were left alive. They all died cleanly!

What the soldier did not expect was that he had originally intended to seek justice for his comrade's family, but as a result, not only did he not get justice, but he even caused several of his comrade's family members who had entered the village to be killed as a result.

He was not stupid, of course he knew that the deaths of those people were not accidental at all. After witnessing the darkness of the world, the soldier completely changed. He did not return to the army, but decided to stay in his comrade's hometown to avenge them.

The soldier's strength was at the eighth level, and when he came back, because his comrade had died in battle to protect a chief, the army also gave him a ninth-level mutated crystal core as a settlement allowance!

Now that his comrade's home was gone, the soldier used the mutated crystal core.

Perhaps his comrade was watching over him from beyond, he succeeded in using only one demonic core to reach the most difficult ninth level, and miraculously comprehended his talent, becoming an Awakener.

What happened after that was no longer suspenseful. A ninth-level Awakener, in this world of Duoluo, as long as the Devourers did not descend, could walk sideways. Unless he encountered a pervert like Dugu Tianfeng!

The soldier uprooted the large family, killing all those involved. Then, he contacted his previous comrades and pulled a group of soldiers out to form the Remnant Souls.

The reason why it was called Remnant Souls was because they felt that they were soldiers, and many of their comrades had followed them to the battlefield. Everyone covered each other, but now, many of their comrades had left this world.

So, they felt that a part of their souls had also left with those comrades, continuing to accompany them, so it was called Remnant Souls!

When Remnant Souls was first established, it was hidden in the dark. They specialized in investigating all the dark secrets, and then secretly took action to solve them. This was not limited to the families of soldiers. They would intervene in all dark secrets.

As time passed, the dark secrets they exposed became more and more numerous, and the number of people they rescued also increased. Many of these people joined them, so their team continued to grow until there were too many people, and their reputation spread, making it impossible to hide in the dark any longer.

However, at that time, Remnant Souls already possessed enough strength. The soldier simply let Remnant Souls enter everyone's sight, and exposed all the things they had done before, including all the evidence they had in their possession.

Immediately, a huge wave was set off in the world of Duoluo. Countless civilians and soldiers were cheering for Remnant Souls, and even the military came forward to support them.

Although this world was controlled by large families and the council, the largest number of people were still civilians. When public opinion arose, the council and large families did not dare to ignore it, let alone directly suppress Remnant Souls.

In addition, with the support of the military, Remnant Souls gained a firm foothold in the world of Duoluo, and continued to develop and grow.

Because they had come to the fore, Remnant Souls no longer needed to investigate themselves. All those who encountered dark secrets would consciously contact Remnant Souls and provide evidence.

Such things would have been suppressed by the large families before, but once Remnant Souls participated, they could not suppress them. As a result, for a time, the world of Duoluo actually became peaceful, and all the large families no longer dared to be as unscrupulous as before.

Remnant Souls also gained extremely high prestige among the people, and its founder, the soldier, was very good at grasping the situation, always controlling Remnant Souls in a good direction, without being infiltrated by any forces.

In this way, Remnant Souls stood firmly in this world, until one day, Shi Hou of Remnant Souls received a mission, saying that a branch disciple of the Liu family of the four great families came to report that his father had been arrested by the direct line of the family, and that his father was a genetics expert.

Because of the existence of zombies, people with genetics expertise were very popular. Moreover, in recent decades, talents in this field had been mysteriously disappearing, and some weapons experts had also had frequent accidents, with no trace of them, dead or alive.

Therefore, after receiving this news, Remnant Souls sent Shi Hou to investigate the Liu family, but unexpectedly, he accidentally discovered a secret of the Liu family, and from this began this centuries-long inheritance mission...
