Chapter 18 Demon Delos
Lex did not immediately agree with Delos's words, but Delos knew that he was already tempted, and the words had planted seeds in his heart, just waiting to take root and sprout.
But after all, Lex is not one of those fools who are so passionate that they ignore everything.He is a mature and witty young man with a very good business acumen.He still maintained a certain amount of rationality and told Delos that he would observe secretly and provide appropriate help.
"If you can prove your worth, then I will try my best to help you. If you can't, then I will treat what happened today as if it never happened."
These are Lex's exact words and represent his position.
Although the process was not smooth, Delos knew that this was the best outcome for now.
He couldn't help but think back to yesterday, when he stopped the girl and the onlookers looked at the girl with no concealment in their eyes.Delos felt a little heavy in his heart.
He witnessed with his own eyes that this group of people said insulting words such as 'damn mutants', 'dirty mutants', and 'disgusting and terrifying monsters' without hesitation.
Delos, who wanted to send the girl to prison directly, hesitated, and then made a quick decision.Then he showed off his enhanced spiritual ability without hesitation, and thrust into the spiritual light of the surrounding crowd!And pull out a small ball of thread material, and then destroy it.
This small ball of thread is the memory of these people. As long as it is crushed with mental power, these people can lose part of their memory.This mental skill is an ability Delos discovered during his break.
To be honest, Delos's mental ability is not very strong, and it is really impossible to achieve this directly.But when he pours the energy from his body into his mind, his mental ability will briefly increase several times, and the increased mental skills can support him to do this.
But if possible, Delos doesn't want to use this trick, because the cost of using this ability is that his mental and physical strength will become very weak and sluggish in three days.Long-term use will cause permanent damage to his body.
But he didn't have time to hesitate. After he handed the car keys to Chloe and asked him to go home first, he resisted the girl who was unconscious on the ground and took her into the police station.
As for the onlookers, Delos's previous actions only erased the memories of these people in the past few minutes.In addition, the impact on them is not that big.At most, he was in a trance for a few minutes when his memory was erased by Delos.
When the police officers watched the street video and received a report from the bank, they naturally detained the girl first.But the good thing is that after the police take over directly, the news will not be released so quickly.
During this period of time, Delos called Lex, who was staying at the fertilizer factory for a meeting, to explain the matter, and by the way, he begged for mercy for the girl.As far as Delos knows, the police here are more or less controlled by the Luther family.It's best to find the right person to handle the matter before it gets too big.
Delos is very relieved to leave these aftermath matters to Lex. If he can't deal with the aftermath, then there will be no one in this town who can help him.

In an abandoned factory in the small town of Smallville, the girl who had been acquitted was brought here by Delos.
Looking at the girl in front of him, Delos felt a little emotional.If he remembered correctly, it seemed that the latest superpower criminals came from Smallville High School, whether they were students or coaches.
That's right, this girl's name is Tina Gray, who goes to Smallville High School and is the same age as Delos.
Delos looked at Tina whose face was full of wariness and hatred, showed a harmless smile and said:
"Don't worry, I mean no harm."
When Tina heard this, she couldn't help but sneered: "You arrested me without any malice? And you brought me to a place like this, what on earth do you want to do?"
"No, no, no~" Delos shook his finger when he heard this, and the smile on his face became even deeper.
He said: "First of all, you turned into my friend and robbed the bank. Not only that, but you also used his appearance to hold an M500 pistol and coerce the store manager to steal the [-] US dollars in his account. You want my friend to rob the bank for you?" It's not okay to pay for what you do. Although the matter has been resolved, it still caused harm to him and the people involved."
"So what?" Tina looked disdainful: "He is a rich man, and he is also one of the 'vampires' of the Luther Group. Take his money..."
"Is it normal?" Delos interrupted Tina loudly and said what Tina wanted to say.His face had become a little mocking: "Miss Tina Gray, you don't seem to know your situation. Do you still remember how you were arrested by the police? Do you need me to remind you how you were released? ?"
Listening to his words and feeling the coldness in his words, Tina suddenly felt scared. Only then did she remember that it was the person in front of her who knocked her out with one blow. Even though it was a sneak attack, but There is no denying that this man is awesome.And this man actually had a way to get her acquitted...
"You know what? Those people outside have gone crazy trying to catch you, a 'mutant'." Delos's voice didn't sound calm, but it made people feel inexplicably cold and depressing.
"I was right next to you at the time, and the people watching were all shouting crazily to kill you, little monster~"
As if recalling the situation at that time, the look in Tina's eyes kept flashing. Thinking of the impulse at that time and the possible consequences of the mistake, cold sweat began to break out on her back.
But before Delos finished speaking, he suddenly showed a harmless smile, which looked extremely scary in Tina's eyes.
"Tina, you are very special. Really, I won't lie to you, you are really special. Your ability is really very curious, especially for people like me who are particularly interested in biogenetics... …”
Every time Delos said something, Tina took a step back, and then Delos took a step forward.She only felt a chill running down her back and gradually freezing her body, making her feel more and more frightened.She was already planning to run away.
But will Delos let her run?He pretended to hold his eyes inadvertently, and then with his deliberate aim, the lens was aimed at the iron door behind Tina, and a powerful electromagnetic wave was launched at full power.
There was a popping sound, which made Tina jump in shock. She could even feel her heart stopping for a moment.She jumped forward suddenly and subconsciously drove back.Then she discovered that the iron door behind her had two groups of burning flames appearing at some point, and quickly covered the entire iron door.
Before she could react, she felt a scorching heat wave coming from her feet.She screamed and subconsciously wanted to step back, but accidentally tripped and fell to the ground.
Noticing the two strings of half-human-high flames that suddenly appeared at her feet, and Delos behind the flames, Tina's brain even though she was stupid, she realized who caused this.She collapsed on the ground and backed away desperately, with fear and tears in her eyes.
"Please, don't kill me." The fear of death made Tina compromise. She kept retreating. In the end, she could no longer retreat, because there were flames behind her, and Delos in front of her was attacking her. Pushing each other step by step.
Regarding this terrible situation, Tina's voice could not help but cry with fear, "Please don't kill me. As long as you don't kill me, I will do whatever you want me to do..."
Seeing that the heat was coming, Delos no longer pressed hard, he showed a harmless smile and said
"No problem, Miss Tina. You see, as long as you are willing to cooperate with me and have a good talk, the matter can still be resolved amicably."
Tina did not speak, but looked at Delos timidly with her red and swollen eyes.The latter continued:
"As I said before, you are very special, Tina. So I need you to do something, including taking a tube of blood from you to observe the mystery." Delos smiled brightly: "But please don't worry, you won't get nothing in return for this. I heard that your family is short of money. In return, I will pay you a certain amount of money."
"Besides..." Delos pondered for a moment and said, "I hope this is just a secret between the two of us. I don't want to hear any strange rumors, unless you want to see whether you can survive the flames... "
But after all, Lex is not one of those fools who are so passionate that they ignore everything.He is a mature and witty young man with a very good business acumen.He still maintained a certain amount of rationality and told Delos that he would observe secretly and provide appropriate help.
"If you can prove your worth, then I will try my best to help you. If you can't, then I will treat what happened today as if it never happened."
