Maoshan Taoist priests practice falsehood and become reality

Chapter 116 Soul Fragments

Su Heng counted the time. Xiang Zibo's work has almost entered the final stage, right?

After some questioning, it turned out that as expected, Qiu Zeliang directly evolved into a mutant the first moment he saw Wang Yuran, but he still could not escape the fate of being killed on the spot.

But after killing Qiu Zeliang, the mission is not over yet.

"We are following Wang Yuran to search for Qiu Zelong's whereabouts."

Qiu Zelong is Qiu Zeliang's brother. There is almost no difference in strength between the two, but the other team's crusade failed.

"Qiu Zelong killed a senior seance master and three investigators, and the last place he disappeared was near Hewan Street. Hewan Street is now a temporary residence for seance masters from other areas, and the search work was not carried out very smoothly. . In fact, we are still negotiating with the spiritual master in District 11 until now, and that guy named Ashina Shinichiro refuses to let us enter the mansion to search at any cost."

Su Heng suddenly remembered the two spiritual masters from District 11 he had seen during dinner that day. Considering the direction of Qiu Zelong's escape, it was hard not to doubt whether these people were in the same group as the mutants.

"So what's going on now?"

Xiang Zibo sighed: "Now the people from the ninth district and the eleventh district have formed a confrontation. Neither side is willing to give in to the other, and the atmosphere is somewhat stalemate. Alas, it would be great if President Wei is here. He won't come forward. If so, I feel that no one can suppress Ashina Shinichiro. That guy’s strength is not comparable to that of ordinary high-level spiritual masters.”

"Hey, hey, hey, how can you gain the arrogance of others and destroy your own prestige!"

Liu Shina's dissatisfied complaints sounded next to the phone.

"I'm just telling the truth. Now that President Wei is seriously injured, President Ouyang has died of illness, and the Ninth District is still recuperating, it would be unwise to conflict with spiritual masters from other areas at the moment. If they are in the same group as the mutants , if the confrontation continues, the last elite troops in District 9 may be at risk of being wiped out in one fell swoop."

Xiang Zibo's analysis is not unreasonable. The entire ninth district is still in a weak recovery stage, and any conflict is unnecessary.

"Wait a moment, I'll go over and take a look."

"receive."

……

Psychic Research Institute.

In the laboratory.

There is a white cocoon the size of a fingernail stored in the glass cover. This cocoon is called the "evolution fruit."

Looking at the evolutionary fruit, Xie Zerong looked solemn. After thinking about it, he decided to call Wei Zonglin.

"Dududu-"

"Hey, Professor Xie, is there any new progress in the experiment?"

"The source of the mutant has been found out, and it is basically determined to be caused by the fruit of evolution." Xie Zerong looked at the fruit that looked like a spider cocoon and said, "However, this thing is quite bad."

"why?"

"It's alive."

"Live?"

Xie Zerong nodded: "Under normal circumstances, it is in an extreme dormant state and does not leak any magnetic field fluctuations. Therefore, it can easily avoid the observation of the spiritual mirror. But once it comes into contact with human blood, its activity will be stimulated and the outer layer will fall off, The core is exposed and combined with the host. In addition, if the host does not meet the conditions, it will choose to close again and enter a dormant state."

"So, this is an intelligent parasitic life?"

"We can't talk about life, it's more like a parasitic magnetic field. Ah, I hate the word magnetic field. President Wei, you should have heard of soul fragments, right?"

"kindness."

"This thing is equivalent to a soul fragment, a part of the evil spirit. The so-called evolution must be the fusion of the evil spirit fragment and human beings. The mutant will have the characteristics of a spider, which must be related to the mother body. Since there is more than one evil spirit, I venture to speculate , there will definitely be other types of mutants. President Wei, are you still listening?"

"Well, please continue."

"In addition, the shell of this evolutionary fruit is just ordinary spider silk. From this, we wonder whether the container carrying the soul fragments also has diverse characteristics? For example, it might be some kind of iron tool, or a gem.

"Have relevant experiments been conducted?"

"Of course! After testing, we used blood to successfully lure soul fragments into an iron coin. After discovering that we were fooled, the thing went into extreme dormancy again." Xie Zerong's tone was slightly trembling, "Combined with this characteristic, imagine what would happen if What will happen if the fragments are preserved in the dagger?"       "Anyone who is injured by the dagger will be transformed into a mutant. It sounds like those old stories about using blood to awaken the sealed demon. If you use this characteristic, create a As for weapons..."

"Well, that's quite bad. After all, this is an unfettered and extremely free evil force."

"arms."

Wei Zonglin suddenly remembered something.

"Oops."

……

No. 246 Hewan Street.

The most conspicuous building on this street is a cluster of red brick buildings. This kind of building from the last century, shaped like a palace and magnificent, is a representative work of the ancient residences in the Ninth District.

The front courtyard and the rear courtyard face south, with five bays and double guardhouses, red brick and white stone walls, a hard gable roof and a double-curved dovetail ridge. The area is conservatively estimated to be 6,000 square meters.

Now, it serves as the Provisional Combat Command for District 11.

The building has three entrances and three exits, and the characteristics of a light hall and a dark room are undoubtedly perfect places for evil spirits to hide.

At this moment, at the gate, the seance masters and investigators headed by Wang Yuran were confronting Ashina Shinichiro's men.

Wang Yuran and others are at war with each other, and they are aggressive and emphasizing their status as the masters of District 9.

On the other hand, Ashina Shinichiro always smiled, as if he was used to this kind of scene.

Ashina Shinichiro: "Miss Yu Ran, I understand your eagerness very well, but I still say the same thing, the mutant is not here, you are looking in the wrong place."

"Fart, I clearly saw the mutant climbing over the courtyard wall!"

Someone shouted dissatisfied.

Wang Yuran signaled the speaker to shut up: "As you can see, many people witnessed the mutant escaping in. It killed our important companions. If we can't take revenge today, I'm afraid we won't be able to explain to our dead comrades. "

Ashina Shinichiro: "Don't worry, Miss Yuran. If there are really mutants and we are both spiritual masters, we will naturally take action. Unfortunately, there is no such thing..."

Wang Yuran's face turned cold:

"What if we have to go in today?"

"Then we have to take corresponding defensive measures."

Ashina Shinichiro waved his hand gently, and the ten samurai stepped forward, put their hands on the handles of their swords, and made a gesture of drawing their swords to strike.

"Can you bear the consequences?" Wang Yuran was furious, "Don't forget, the vice president of the association is now in the ninth district."

Ashina Shinichiro still smiled: "I can bear it, can you?"

Wang Yuran, who wanted to take action, was doubtful. She never expected that even after using Wei Zonglin's name, the other party would remain unmoved.

Could it be that……

Realizing that something was wrong, she ordered the team to retreat five meters to prepare for the situation, and sent someone to report the matter to the ninth district headquarters.

The series of actions all fell into the eyes of Ashina Shinichiro.

Even though he knew that Wang Yuran was moving reinforcements, he remained unmoved, as if he was eager to make things worse.

"Obviously he is just a high-level spiritual master, but he still pretends to be a special spiritual master. This guy is really good at pretending!"

Lurking underground and using his left eye to repeatedly confirm that all the seance masters from District 11 were human, Su Heng immediately used earth skills to sneak into the ancient house to find the hidden mutant.
