The Daily Life Of A Cyberpunk Magician-Chapter 585 - 301 Magic? Deception? Ready to Go!

"What are you planning to do next?" Rift Gary piloted the plane, headed straight for his lair.

The Thirteen District contained many post-war ruins, and nearly every ruin had one of his strongholds.

"What are you going to do? With such a target, you must have your own considerations, right?" Jiang Shu, who sat in the back, asked in return. After speaking, he glanced at the chairman who had been hypnotized by the Fox.

Gary, on the other hand, looked at the people sitting behind him through the helicopter’s rearview mirror.

Deception Group.

He could easily recognize these people because he had dealt with them in the Thirteen District.

But, no.

He had not seen this Wolf Face and smiling face before.

And now, Gary knew that Jiang Shu was the smiling face.

There wasn’t much surprise; he naturally accepted this fact.

He had had a similar feeling before, Jiang Shu was definitely not as simple as he appeared.

How could a man with such a level of Magic be so unremarkable before?

And then suddenly rose to prominence over six months ago, like a shooting star streaking across the sky, leaving behind so many spectacular performances.

Jiang Shu’s path to fame was clearly different from that of ordinary people, and Gary was even more aware that this guy’s inner thoughts were not in line with the calm he displayed.

In handling certain matters, he was even more extreme than Gary himself, who scorned the law.

However, facing the fact that Jiang Shu was actually the puppet master behind Deception Group, Gary still felt slightly uneasy.

Apart from unease, there was also relief. He had previously wanted to attack while the Fox and others were off guard, but ultimately he was moved by the good deeds of Devil Wind and thereafter was able to better control his own sanity.

"I was originally planning to let Hughes personally exact revenge on his enemy." Gary gave the answer Jiang Shu had expected. "But now, I’ve changed my mind. I want to see how you would deal with him."

He laughed, the sudden smile causing his muscles near the mouth to strain and fine blood to seep out, but he didn’t care at all.

"Letting an utterly despicable person simply die, that won’t erase the fear and oppression he left in ordinary people. Only by publicly trampling on his dignity while he lives, crushing all his arrogance, making him panic-stricken, making him kneel and beg, making him wag his tail and display his pitiful state, can we shatter the fear and shadow he cast upon people during his crimes; this way, we can comfort the souls of the injured."

Jiang Shu’s speech still echoed in Gary’s mind. Indeed, these words resonated deeply with him, so he also wanted to see what Jiang Shu would actually do.

Of course, making such a choice was only because the person was Jiang Shu. Though he had become Rift, he still held immense respect for Jiang Shu. If it were someone else, he naturally wouldn’t trust them.

"Okay," Jiang Shu smiled under his mask. He glanced at Gary imperceptibly and, sensing nothing unusual, let go of his concern.

He had worried that Gary might hold a grudge over his injury, but on second thought, Gary didn’t even know about the mechanical Disciple’s connection to Fox.

Only he and Wolf were aware of this, and since there was no evidence, it had not spread.

Since that was the case, he could also better implement his own plan.

Performing a piece of Magic, or rather a Deception, as a member of the Deception Group was a crazy idea he had long ago, and today he could finally put it into practice.

Catching the chairman was merely the first step. If it were just about simply killing the chairman, there would be no need to mobilize so many people.

Fish Mother alone could have completed the task perfectly.

Right, where was Fish Mother?

Without a watch, did she know her way back?

Hmm...

Surely she wouldn’t get lost in the water?

Jiang Shu put aside his thoughts on Fish Mother and turned to Gary, "Find a nearby berth, and we’ll get off the plane first."

While this plane had a flight permit in the Lonely City airspace, such a large target was still easily traceable.

If noticed by someone, this would also be detrimental to the execution of subsequent plans.

Gary then found a rooftop nearby to land the helicopter, ignoring the illegal parking warning from the helicopter’s computer, because they needed to leave this place as quickly as possible.

"Lang Tai, go and bring Hughes. You’ve seen his information," Jiang Shu said to Lang Tai.

Hughes was one of the key figures in the Sages Group incident; as a victim, he naturally needed to witness certain things.

Given Hughes’s sensitive identity, the chairman must have arranged for some people to watch over him, but in the face of the humanoid Gundam Lang Tai, this was no difficulty at all.

Lang Tai nodded slightly, the fur on his Wolf Face mask trembling, then he leapt to the edge of the rooftop. After briefly determining the direction, he jumped off.

His left and right arms morphed into large, thin silver Wing Suits. With a flap of his wings, his body glided far away.

Gary watched Lang Tai’s departing figure, his eyes filled with a sobering intensity.

From the moment he saw the Wolf Face mask to the departure of Wolf Face, there was always a sense of alertness in him.

This Wolf Face was strong, incredibly strong.

Gary believed that he had barely reached the strength of a Combat Sequence T1 and, if he could maintain a rational state during Combat, unleash all the capabilities of this Armor, there should be no problem even clashing with a T1.
