Starting from the folklore forum, making up town objects

Chapter 385 The Raven Prophet: You ask about the Ghost Slave? Destroy him!

"What are your thoughts on the situation outside?"

Feng Jin looked at the group and said.

"Isn't this a good thing?" Chu Xiu sneered. "When the Divine Envoy Organization created the Yin-Yang Rift in Great Xia, the Golden Kingdom sent spies into Great Xia many times to try to add fuel to the fire."

"If you ask me, the bureau should send some people to the golden country to bring back all the data they've collected on ghosts and the supernatural over the years."

The other people in the conference room were giving him strange looks, but Chu Xiu didn't care.

"What? Don't you want to?"

The others coughed lightly but didn't reply.

Feng Jin ignored Chu Xiu and turned to look at Fan Yaohui beside her, signaling him to begin.

Fan Yaohui nodded and stood up.

"The Information Gathering Department actually had records of the blood leeches from the Golden Kingdom more than 30 years ago. These blood leeches appeared in Great Xia more than 30 years ago, but there were not many of them. Later, because the blood leeches would actively crawl out of the host's body after approaching the Yang Stone, they dried up and died, so that batch of blood leeches was quickly eliminated."

"The research department also has research records on blood leeches from that time, but the level of secrecy is not high. After the situation in the Golden Kingdom occurred this time, I searched for some of the original records again."

As Fan Yaohui spoke, he asked Feng Jin for permission to turn on the projection equipment.

Soon, some research projects from more than 30 years ago and records about blood leeches came into view.

"Back then, vampires from the Kingdom of Golden Hair had already appeared for several years. So when these blood leeches were discovered in Great Xia, we believed that they had flowed into Great Xia from countries like the Kingdom of Golden Hair. Therefore, we developed a batch of detection instruments carrying fragments of Yang Stone to keep things like blood leeches out of the country."

"In the past thirty years, vampires have appeared in Great Xia from time to time, but because their attack methods are easy to identify, they have not caused much trouble."

At this point, Fan Yaohui glanced at everyone.

"This was the Bureau of Investigation's previous assessment of the blood leeches. However, the sudden outbreak of a large-scale vampire incident in the Golden Kingdom is too coincidental with some events that have occurred within the Great Xia. The Research Department, in cooperation with the Information Gathering Department, has reviewed this information again and finally reached a conclusion."

"Regarding the blood leech, it is very likely that it did not originate from the Golden Kingdom, but rather... from the Great Xia!"

Upon hearing this, everyone in the room except Feng Jin and the people from the information processing department was taken aback.

"Originated from the Great Xia? What does that mean?"

"What a joke! Great Xia only has a few vampires, while Golden Kingdom is practically becoming a vampire kingdom now!"

"It's not just the Blonde Country; there are vampires in other countries as well, even more than in Great Xia. Even if you say they originated from other countries, it's more convincing than saying they originated from our Great Xia, isn't it?"

As several ministers and deputy ministers from the General Administration raised their questions one by one, Fan Yaohui did not rush to refute them.

"Gentlemen, this is our analysis, as well as the situation that is taking place in various parts of Great Xia."

As he spoke, Fan Yaohui compiled a list of all the events that had occurred in Daxia that day.

It contains information reported by manipulated city management, information about skin ulcers of people who have been replaced by others, and information about people who are imprisoned in the Bureau of Investigation's underground prison and suddenly die, are seriously injured, or even turn into zombies!

All of these situations occurred within the same time period.

Coincidentally, the vampire riot that occurred in the Kingdom of Gold also happened around the same time.

"What does this mean?"

Some people were puzzled, but others seemed to have figured something out.

Chu Xiu looked at Fan Yaohui and asked, "Who were those people who experienced the same events as those in the Golden Kingdom?"

Fan Yaohui smiled and said, "Director Chu is on the right track. Based on our assessment, all of these people are members of the same organization!"

"That is... a ghost slave!"

Upon hearing the words 'ghost slave,' Chu Xiu already had a more accurate answer in his mind.

As the deputy director of the Bureau of Public Opinion Survey, Chu Xiu could not possibly remember everything, big or small, but he still had a general framework in his mind for some things.

Of all these, the situation of the Ghost Slave Organization was the part that left the deepest impression on him.

Over the years, the Bureau of Investigation has dealt with NGOs, and although it has not been able to eliminate them, it has still amassed a great deal of information about them.

But no matter how much information they have, there will always be some confidential information that the Bureau of Investigation cannot obtain.

For example, the Bureau of Investigation cannot actively find any of the messengers of the gods.

One reason for this is that many of the divine messenger organizations operate on a single-line contact basis, making it difficult to trace their origins. In addition, the guides themselves appear very rarely, making it even harder to find clues about them.

Another reason is that the messengers who guide the gods seem to be mostly ordinary people.

Without Yin energy, it's not Yin cultivation; searching for it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

In recent years, the battle in which the most guides were captured or killed was the one recently fought by the Mubei City Investigation Bureau.

Besides the divine messengers, there was also the organization of demon slaves.

The Bureau of Investigation knew about the Nine Veins of Ghost Slave, but in fact, only the Seven Veins had ever actually dealt with the Ghost Slave organization!
Needless to say, the Heart and Skin meridians, although they rarely engage in combat, are certainly something the Bureau of Investigation is on guard against.

Eyes, Bones, and Body are the three strongest factions in the Ghost Slave organization in terms of combat, and like Ghost Scorpion and Ghost Spider, they are the five factions that have fought the Bureau of Investigation the most.

However, the Bureau of Investigation rarely clashed with the remaining two factions of the Ghost Slave Organization.

Even now, the Bureau of Investigation still hasn't figured out the specific names of the two factions of the Ghost Slave.

Members of the Ghost Slave organization who were captured in the past gave many different accounts, including ghost blood, ghost insects, and ghost leeches, so the Bureau of Investigation could not determine the information of those two factions.

Now that Fan Yaohui says that the vampire incident in the Golden Country is related to the Ghost Slave Organization, does that mean that the so-called vampires and leeches are one of the remaining two lineages of the Ghost Slave Organization, or even all of them?

Just as Chu Xiu was speculating, Fan Yaohui revealed another piece of news.

"After the Ghost Slave Organization manipulated the management of various cities in the Great Xia to spread supernatural rumors and cause public panic, they actually carried out further deployments in villages and towns outside the cities, aiming to cause even greater riots."

"After our people discovered it, they did not alert the enemy. Instead, they followed the information and found out more than thirty strongholds of the Ghost Slave organization outside the city."

"But before we could even make a move, all the members of the Ghost Slave Organization suffered accidents at the same time. Some died suddenly, while others were seriously injured and on the verge of death. After we examined them, we found that all the Yin cultivators in the Ghost Slave Organization... had become cripples!"

"Regardless of their lineage, all the evil spirits and yin energy within them have vanished!"

Upon hearing Fan Yaohui's words, the other senior executives of the State Administration of Radio and Television, who had just learned of the situation, exchanged bewildered glances.

Without giving the executives a chance to ask questions, Fan Yaohui gave his conclusion.

"Because all the official members of the Ghost Slave Organization obtained their power through 'inheritance,' and the source of this inheritance is the nine patriarchs of the Ghost Slave Organization, therefore, based on our speculation, there must have been a major upheaval at the higher levels of the Ghost Slave Organization, and it is very likely that..."

Fan Yaohui paused for a moment at this point.

"...The higher-ups of the Ghost Slave Organization have been wiped out!"

Everyone was taken aback by these words.

But soon, some people raised objections.

"If you said that one of the Ghost Slave lineages was wiped out, I would believe you. But according to you, all seven Ghost Slave lineages have encountered problems at the same time. Who do you think could find the patriarchs of all seven Ghost Slave lineages at the same time and then wipe them all out at the same time?"

"That's right. The nine lineages of the Ghost Slave Organization aren't a monolithic entity. It's unlikely that they would gather all nine lineages together and then destroy them. So it can only be that at the same time, the patriarchs of the nine lineages of the Ghost Slave Organization were killed by nine beings who surpassed them... But is that possible? Isn't there a Black Abyss among the Ghost Slave?"

"If such an organization has emerged among the people, it would be far superior to organizations of divine messengers and ghost slaves. But it's impossible for our Bureau of Investigation not to know about an organization that surpasses divine messengers and ghost slaves."

"Old Fan, it's best to keep this kind of information accurate, otherwise there will be problems when issuing orders later."

Hearing what everyone was saying, Fan Yaohui shook his head.

"Gentlemen, all the information points to a devastating change within the Ghost Slave Organization. Even if what I'm saying is outrageous, once all possibilities are ruled out, no matter how outrageous the result is, we still have to believe it, don't we?"

Fan Yaohui's words were not immediately refuted by the crowd.

But even if we manage to convince them, we can't truly persuade them. Unless we can provide concrete evidence, we can't win them over.

Just then, someone who had been sitting in the corner of the conference room suddenly spoke up.

"Minister Fan, do you include the underworld in all the possibilities you mentioned?"

A sudden remark drew everyone's attention to that figure.

Yunlong Tian felt a sudden pressure when he saw everyone's gazes directed at him.

But soon, the pressure on him disappeared.

Because Feng Jin spoke up.

"Give your opinion."

Feng Jin looked at Yun Longtian with a hint of inquiry in her eyes.

Researchers like Yun Longtian shouldn't be involved in meetings at this level.

However, Yun Longtian's other identity was something that Feng Jin had to take seriously.

In fact, after listening to the reports from the Research Department and the Information Processing Department, Feng Jin had already thought about going to the Underworld, which was why he summoned Yun Longtian.

After all, this person is the chosen one of the underworld!

"My view is very simple. As Director Fan said, the Bureau of Investigation cannot be unaware of any organization that surpasses divine messengers and ghost slaves, and everyone should already have a clear understanding of the strength of the Underworld."

"If that's the case, why can't it be the underworld?"

"If the Underworld can mend the rift between Yin and Yang, can make Underworld Walkers appear anywhere at will, and can have walking guardians like gods of the turbid world, then destroying an organization that has only been around for fifty years does not seem to be a difficult task."

"After all, according to the underworld, their existence is far beyond our imagination."

"Perhaps the ghost servants angered the underworld, which is why they were destroyed by it?"

Seeing everyone deep in thought, Yun Longtian suddenly had another bold idea.

"I don't know the specifics of the God of Turbidity, but based on what I know, the God of Turbidity seems to live in some unknown space."

"Is it possible that there is also fighting among the gods of this mortal world?"

"The underworld may not be able to wipe out the nine lineages of ghost slaves in one go, but can it destroy the master that the ghost slaves worship?"

"With the master dead and faith collapsing, will those who followed Him also be affected?"

Yunlong Tian became more and more excited as he spoke.

"If that's really the case, then even if it wasn't the underworld that intervened, it's possible that the master of the Ghost Slave Organization died at the hands of other gods of the mortal world!"

After he finished speaking, Yun Longtian suddenly noticed that the way everyone was looking at him had become somewhat strange.

Immediately, someone said with a hint of sarcasm, "Heh, it seems that 'Yun Tianming' really recognizes the Underworld, and has no doubt about the history that the Underworld tells."

"In that case, why don't you contact the Underworld directly, 'Yun Tianming'? Wouldn't that be better than guessing here?"

After he said that, the others who had initially thought he had gone too far shut their mouths.

Asking around is one way to go.

Everyone, including Feng Jin, turned their attention to Yunlong Tian.

Yunlong Tian was suddenly lifted up.

Looking at those people with different expressions, Yun Longtian felt very uneasy.

But he was actually quite curious about this question, and since he had never contacted the underworld since obtaining that raven feather, contacting it once shouldn't be considered a disturbance.

Thinking this, Yun Longtian raised his right hand and reached into the inner pocket of his research suit.

He always carried that raven feather with him.

Even in the safest place in the Great Xia Dynasty, he felt less secure than with a single, light raven feather.

Just as Yun Longtian took out the raven feather, everyone in the room, including the minister who had just mocked Yun Longtian, sat up straight.

They may doubt the origins of the underworld, and they may not trust its credibility, but they cannot help but have at least some respect for its power.

They couldn't verify the first two, but the Underworld had already demonstrated its strength.

Yun Longtian glanced at everyone, then focused his gaze on the raven feather.

"Yunlongtian, please have the Underworld Official appear for a discussion."

After saying that, Yunlongtian placed the crow feather on the table in front of him.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

A full ten seconds passed, and the raven feather still did not react.

Yunlongtian was somewhat embarrassed.

Could it be that the identity of the chosen one is not as important as he imagined?
Just as everyone's gazes toward Yun Longtian grew increasingly strange and the atmosphere became more awkward.

The raven feather suddenly transformed into a raven.

"I was busy just now, Mr. Destiny, what's up?"

Looking at the crow, Yunlongtian breathed a sigh of relief.

"My lord, the Bureau of Investigation has discovered information about some ghost slave organizations..."

Yunlong Tian recounted his previous analysis and then asked, "I wonder if the Underworld knows what's wrong with the Ghost Slave Organization?"

After he finished speaking, the meeting room fell silent.

For a moment, everyone could hear each other's breathing.

Soon, everyone heard the sound coming from the crow's throat.

"Ghost slave?"

"I know that."

Everyone pricked up their ears.

"The true form of the Lord of Ghost Slaves entered the mortal world from the underworld, integrated the nine lineages of Ghost Slaves, and then, under the influence of the divine messenger, prepared to wreak havoc in the mortal world."

In an instant, everyone's expression changed.

Did the true form of the deity from the turbid world enter the mortal realm?
how can that be!

Such an existence can wreak havoc in the mortal world simply by descending into consciousness. If its true form were to descend into the mortal world, where would humanity find a way to survive!

Before they could process this information, the Raven Prophet's next words left their heads buzzing.

"Hehe! I don't know what they were thinking. Instead of causing trouble for your Bureau of Investigation first, they set their sights on the Underworld first."

"After the Lord of the Underworld learned of this, he killed the Lord of Ghost Servants."

"The situation you described should have occurred after the death of the Lord of Ghosts, when His power became ineffective."

Ignoring the stiff expressions on everyone's faces, the Raven Prophet asked Yun Longtian:
"Chosen One, is there any other question?"
