Odd Containment Specialist.

Chapter 76 Preparation
In the empty office, Xia Shouping spread his palms out with his palms facing up on the table.

Su Weiyu held a bronze nail in her left hand and gently placed it on Xia Shou's palm. She held a bronze hammer in her right hand and carefully aimed at the nail cap of the bronze nail.

"Then, I'm nailed?" Su Weiyu confirmed again.

"Well, I'm ready, but don't use too much force. This bronze nail is already very fragile. It may break directly if used violently." Xia Shou said solemnly as he looked at the nail body whose middle section had been corroded to only five millimeters left.

Some sealed objects are so fragile that although they are easy to use, they have extremely poor durability and cannot be repaired. They become less valuable with each use.

The set of seals they are using now are of this non-durable type.

Just in case, Xia Shou picked up the file about this banned object again and read it again carefully, word for word.

【Funerary nail set】

[Abnormal Level: 2]

【No.: 11-606】

[Control risks: None]

[Function Introduction: A bronze nail and a bronze hammer.

After research, it was found that this group of items originated from China and were manufactured during the Warring States Period. It is still unknown why these items were unearthed from the British Empire.

A large amount of residual DNA was detected on the bronze nails, but it is unclear how the DNA could have persisted for so long.

Using normal scientific technology, it is currently impossible to remove the DNA attached to the nails.

After research and investigation, it was found that this group of objects was used for burial. Tests showed that if someone (the executioner) held a bronze hammer and pierced a bronze nail through the palm or sole of another person, then within ten days, when the executioner died, the person being executed would die instantly.

As long as this act is completed, the "burial sacrifice" effect will always exist regardless of whether the victim's wounds heal afterwards.

After testing, each use of this set of sealing objects will greatly increase the degree of wear and corrosion of the burial nails. Before use, an application must be submitted to the management department. 】

This is the only and most suitable prop they found after searching all the banned objects they could find so far.

As long as Su Weiyu uses this hammer to drive the nail through his palm, then Su Weiyu can sneak into the Blood Mother Cult to explore alone.

As long as Xia Shou activates the Self-Destruction skill, even if Su Weiyu encounters an inhuman monster at the Blood Mother Cult headquarters and unfortunately dies, he will die immediately and the Self-Destruction skill's retroactive effect will be activated.

At the moment, the only test they face is that the nail seems very fragile and will break if bent lightly.

"It doesn't say what will happen if the nail breaks during the nailing process. The effect of dying together may be ineffective, so you must be careful." Xia Shou warned.

Su Weiyu nodded vigorously, her expression solemn and steady, as reliable as an extremely experienced nail maker.

"I'm quite good at this. Believe me, I won't break it." She said steadily.

"Hoo—get started."

Su Weiyu gathered her strength and smashed the nail, causing Xia Shou to groan.

The nail didn't break when the hammer hit it, but it didn't completely penetrate Xia Shou's palm either.

The tip of the nail was embedded in the flesh of his palm, and it seemed to stimulate some muscles and nerves. Xia Shou resisted the conditioned reflex and did not pull his hand back, nor did he try to clench his fingers to avoid breaking the already very fragile nail.

"...I'm sorry." Su Weiyu said with some guilt.

She clutched the fragile nail, hesitating whether to pull it out. She was not sure whether the ritual had to be completed in one go.

"It's okay, just keep going. It should be OK as long as you nail it through. It doesn't say you have to do it with one hammer."

"Sorry, bear with it for a moment, I'll try again!"

"Don't be impatient... don't break it, other people will need it in the future. Relax, I'm fine, try again..."

Xia Shou forced a calm smile and gave the other person a thumbs up.

Su Weiyu nodded vigorously, took a deep breath, raised the hammer, and hit it again, neither too hard nor too light.

Benedict!
Xia Shou's expression was completely out of control. This was simply torture. When Su Weiyu chopped off his hands and feet in the sanatorium, he was not so entangled. Moreover, the most important thing was that this torture had no end in sight!
"Is it worn? I feel like it's nailed to the bone. If it's nailed to the bone, it might break." Su Wei Yu defended.

Xia Shou looked at Su Weiyu in shock and was speechless for a moment.

The two looked at each other, speechless.

After a while, Xia Shou calmed down and said, "It's a reasonable guess, but it probably isn't nailed to the bone. You can use a little more force, just a little bit is enough. I feel like it's almost hitting the skin."

……

Finally, the burial ceremony was completed.

Afterwards, Xia Shou went to the medical department for simple treatment, and the wound healed completely in half an hour.

In addition, in order to be able to keep in touch with Su Weiyu after he entered the Blood Mother Cult headquarters, they also selected a communication blockade.

The name of this banned object is very simple, which is [walkie-talkie]. The effect is that no matter whether there is a signal or not, no matter where you are, as long as this walkie-talkie has power, it can communicate with another matching walkie-talkie.

But because the level of anomaly is too low, the power of communication cannot penetrate high-level areas.

However, the headquarters of the Blood Mother Cult is not in the domain, but a strange passage created through some kind of space distortion spell, so the walkie-talkie should be able to work.

"Now everything is ready. We will be able to collect sufficient information next time!" Su Weiyu let out a long sigh.

If it weren't for the 24-hour cooldown period for Seeking Death, she really wanted to take action immediately.

But if you think about it from another angle, their current rescue progress is actually faster than you can imagine.

If Xia Shou had not revealed her identity, she would not be able to catch the devout people entering the headquarters immediately even if she could stay in Rawlins Church day and night.

It's nice to have someone who can see me...

"By the way, should we change the order of our plan?" Su Wei Yu turned her head and asked.

Xia Shou nodded: "Well, in order to sneak into the headquarters, I must reveal my identity, but the other thing can be done today.

Come with me to that bar tonight and take care of those people.

Then wait until the 24-hour cooldown of Seeking Death ends tomorrow, and then you can start exploring the Blood Mother Cult headquarters. "

"The group of people you found during the day should be from the Blood Mother Cult, right? And based on the judgment that they were seeking their own death, they are quite strong?" Su Weiyu asked.

"Since he is so hostile towards me, he is most likely from the Blood Mother Cult. If the Blood Mother Cult is also a sect that divides classes based on strength, then his position should not be low." Xia Shou analyzed.

"He may know about my parents." Su Weiyu's eyes lit up.

……

The manic music filled the entire space, the DJ was jumping and shouting high in the air, and men and women in the middle of the dance hall were hugging each other and swaying their bodies to their heart's content.

This bar, which is extremely deserted during the day, becomes a gathering place for emotions at night, like an ultraviolet light in the dark, attracting all phototactic insects.

The men and women here are like peacocks spreading their screens to attract suitable targets. The hunters are also looking for prey for tonight, and everyone has his own ulterior motives.

"I hate coming to places like this the most," said Su Weiyu.

"Oh, it's because it's noisy, right?" Xia Shou said, "I hate this kind of place too."

"No, because there are too many people trying to strike up a conversation here," said Su Weiyu.

Xia Shou was silent for a moment, chewed on this sentence for a while, and nodded in understanding.

They walked through the crowded crowd and approached the bar. Xia Shou saw at a glance that the man in the black jacket whom he had seen during the day was sitting at the bar, reading a book.

"Reading a book in a bar, what kind of a hipster is this? Wei Yu, help me chop off his head!"
