Chapter 240 Hughes' Warning

Desert base, somewhere below.

Alex followed the lead and kept walking forward.

He soon saw Hughes in a spacious room. From the outside, Hughes was no different from before. But from a mental perspective, Hughes seemed to be in a very excited state, his eyes glowing, his expression twitching, and he felt a little weird.

"Hi! Alex, you're finally here!"

Before Hughes could react, he said hello loudly. From the voice, he could feel that Hughes's inner self had changed a lot. In the past, Hughes gave people the feeling that he had been fighting against some kind of pressure, constantly struggling, and constantly fighting.

Even if his body was not injured, Hughes's spirit had been hurt, and it was very serious, which could be seen from his appearance alone. But Hughes is now radiant, as if he had gained a new life.

"What magic medicine did you take? It seemed like you had become a different person?" Alex asked with some advice.

Hughes was stunned for a moment, and laughed. His voice was no longer as sharp as before, but became much brighter: "Miracle? There is no magical medicine. Maybe there is, but I have never obtained it. I just figured out one thing. I am the same as before, and there is no change!"

Alex didn't believe Hughes's explanation, but he didn't want to get involved in such matters, but asked straight to the point: "What's the matter with you coming to me this time?"

Hughes' expression immediately became serious, and he stared at Alex with a sharp look and asked, "Did you go to the warehouse and get Tesla's manuscript?"

Alex nodded. He didn't want to hide the other party in such matters: "Yes, Director Hoover wants me to help him crack Tesla's password. That's why I get in touch with the original Tesla manuscript."

"Haha, this old fox!" Hughes smiled. He frowned and walked back and forth a few steps, and suddenly said, "Alex, I'm looking for you this time. I want to talk to you openly."

"What are you talking about?"

"Didn't you keep asking me why you were against Rockefeller and the others? And you always want to know my business, so I can tell you everything now."

Alex was a little surprised. He really didn't expect Hughes to confess so much and wanted to tell all the inside story. Of course, he and Hughes had a bit of a stinking smell. They were quite close in some aspects, at least they wouldn't hate each other.

When people get along with each other, it is the so-called reunion of the same kind. Maybe they are the same kind of people.

Hughes ignored what Alex was thinking, and he began to tell: "I am actually a disciple of the wise lineage..."

As soon as these words came out, Alex almost jumped up. He shouted: "Impossible! Are you from the wise lineage?"

Alex had many speculations about Hughes' identity. At first he thought Hughes was a Freemason, but when he saw that he fought with Rockefeller so fiercely, he suspected that he was from the Illuminati. However, according to Hughes' description, the Illuminati people were the ones who kidnapped him. If Hughes was a member of the Illuminati, then he would not be able to smear on his organization like this.

During several contacts, Alex thought Hughes was another faction besides the Freemasons and the Illuminati. When he learned that Tesla was from the Sage lineage, he never thought that Hughes was also a member of this lineage.

But after Hughes pointed out his own identity, Alex thought it carefully and felt that this was reasonable. Hughes was very smart since childhood, and also had a strong interest in technology, and was also a patient with obsessive-compulsive disorder. In many ways, he wanted people of the wise lineage than Alex himself. As for Alex, he did not think he was the so-called wise man.

After Hughes was interrupted, he glared at Alex and said, "Don't hit the cross, please listen to me. The so-called wise lineage. I don't know how much you know. Here I want to tell you the whole story of the lineage."

Alex suddenly reached out to stop the other party and said, "Don't say it now, stretch out his hand and let me hold it!"

Hughes was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Alex wanted to do, but he still stretched out his hand. When the hands of the two of them touched each other, both felt an electric shock.

"Ouch!" Hughes screamed and quickly shook his hand away! He stared at Alex and said angrily: "How dare you use your superpower to peek into other people's hearts? Aren't you afraid of being killed by those old guys?"

When Alex was in contact, it seemed to be very smooth at first, and the soul information seemed to be copying, but suddenly before Hughes shook his hands, the copying process was cut off. It felt like plugging the USB into someone else's computer and was about to copy the data, an antivirus software suddenly jumped out, saying that there was a virus on the USB drive and it was impossible to copy the data.

Yes, the copying process was interrupted again.

The last time I faced FBI Director Hoover, and now I faced Hughes. I didn’t expect that I had encountered such problems in a row, which really made Alex sigh. It seemed that this ability is not omnipotent.

Of course it is not omnipotent, Hughes quickly gave his reason: "Your ability is very dangerous, do you know? If it were tied to a cross and set fire to death!"

"It's not medieval now!" Alex shrugged and said indifferently.

Hughes smiled and showed a strange smile: "But those old guys from the Middle Ages are still there. If you do too much and let them take care of it, you may have been destroyed by them in the name of defending the way."

"Why?"

"Just because you violated the so-called realm of God! You must know that only the so-called God can possess this ability!" Hughes explained seriously, and at the end he couldn't help laughing: "Actually, these statements are all bluffing. In fact, they are too afraid that their secrets will be seen, so they suppress people like you."

Alex looked at Hughes with some disbelief, not knowing whether the other party was telling the truth or the lies. Maybe Hughes was not necessarily bluffing people. However, he knew that his abilities could not be easily used in front of these people.

In the past, he wanted to use his ability to copy the information of Lawrence Rockefeller. Now, he thought about it, but fortunately he didn't take action at that time. If he met the other party, he might also want to be discovered like this, which leads to various problems.

Hughes curled his smile and warned him seriously: "To be honest, you should avoid using such abilities in the future. Your ability to peek at the mind seems very powerful, but in front of a truly powerful person, such ability is vulnerable! And it will also expose your weaknesses and allow the other party to find a breakthrough."

After hearing Hughes's words, Alex felt that the other party seemed to have misunderstood. In fact, Alex's ability is not a ability to peek at the soul, but that's fine. If Hughes misunderstood, he would not expose his true abilities.

In fact, Alex's ability is extremely powerful in one aspect, and can copy other people's soul information and obtain memories, experience, skills, etc. from it. But on the other hand, his ability is very weak because there are too many restrictions, such as seeing the other person's true face, and having to touch the other person, etc.

Once the other party does not show his true face, Alex's ability will be nullified. From this point of view, his ability is too weak.

As for what Hughes said about peeping at the soul, from the other party's description, this ability is stronger. Some people can stand far away and feel the changes in their thoughts and emotions of others. They can tell whether they are good or bad, whether they are lies or truth.

Huh? Isn’t this the sixth sense I have?

The more Alex listened, the more he felt that Hughes said that the spiritual peeping was his sixth sense. Now he could also vaguely feel the emotional thinking of people around him. However, this sixth sense does not work when it fails, so it is better to use the ability to copy. He is used to this kind of violent cracking method.

After listening to Hughes's extensive knowledge of this taboo, Alex realized that this ability cannot be used casually. Otherwise, it is likely that it will cause a situation of immortality after being seen through by others. After all, every person with power will have an ulterior motive. Once it is known by others, it will be like an offense to the Dragon's reverse scale.

"This ability will only be used when the prisoner is interrogated and confessed. Otherwise, if you are found to use this ability at will, you may offend a large number of people. At that time, you will know that you are wrong by being attacked by a group."

Hughes never tires about some taboo issues to Alex, such as not using witchcraft at will, not using the mind to peek at will, not worship demons, etc.

After hearing this, Alex asked strangely: "Why can't you use witchcraft? Will this kind of thing also attract criticism from others?"

"This is not, but witchcraft is too messy, everything is mixed together, with psychological guidance, demon summoning, herbal knowledge, alchemy knowledge, etc. Even those who are proficient in witchcraft cannot fully master it. Moreover, if you use witchcraft too much, you will be slowly eroded by it and lose yourself in a mental state."

In Hughes's cognition, witchcraft is an inequality, and it is easy to be cracked, and it will have side effects when used. More importantly, witchcraft will change people from a spiritual level. It is best not to use it if you can.

Hearing Hughes's statement, Alex suddenly remembered the white wizard. At first, this guy was also a very decent person, but because he had been exposed to witchcraft for too long, his mentality was gradually distorted and degenerated. He eventually became a person who steals other people's bodies, and lived in a dark and humid old house all day long, and was better than death than surviving.

"Don't say these off-topics, let's tell me about the mysterious organizations such as the Sage, Freemasonry, and Illuminati."

Alex quickly brought the topic back to the right side, so as not to think about it all day long and guess. He vaguely knew some things about these organizations, but not many, as if he felt many ferocious beasts ambushing in the dark, and would rush out to choose people at any time and eat them.
