Starting with Blood Healing to become an Ancient God

"Lilith Arkham, the mayor's wife who suddenly appeared, with her ability to easily subdue gangsters and torture them to the point of mental breakdown, all of this points back to this mysterious young mayor."

Kingston thought to himself as he walked out of the gallery.

Looking west along Central Avenue, Kingston's keen eyes could clearly see the original Rock Church at the three-way intersection at the end of the road, now the Flower of Arkham Club.

Lost in thought, a short young man appeared beside Kingston without him noticing: "Captain."

"How's the investigation going?" Kingston asked.

The young man replied, "I just accompanied Dr. Morgan to investigate five families. These women are not abnormal. They have not been exposed to anything strange. Every day they just enjoy massages and exercise with the people at the club."

"That's all?" Kingston was somewhat surprised.

The young man said with some helplessness, "I have checked all of these, and there are no signs of hypnosis. They are all perfectly normal."

Kingston said, "Let's go back first and wait for news from Joseph and the others."

Just as the three were about to leave, they saw three gang members walk out of Clover Transport Company, cautiously look around, and then head into an alley not far away.

Kingston had an idea: "You guys wait here, I'll go check it out."

After saying that, he quickly left and quietly followed.

Deep in a certain alley, the three gang members cautiously found a woman whose face they couldn't see.

"Is it enough to just deliver the goods there?" the burly man in the lead asked in a deep voice.

The woman with the large hood nodded slightly and warned in a cold tone, "Remember to place it in the woods north of the Baptistery Church. Don't leave it anywhere else, or you'll face the consequences."

The burly man said calmly, "Don't worry, our Clover Company has a very good reputation, and we never ask about things we shouldn't know."

The woman then handed over a bag of gold coins: "This is the deposit."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Kingston, hiding in the corner, was about to write down the address and continued listening.

After the three thugs who had received the money made sure the woman was completely gone, the young man on the left said, "These Innsmouth people are always so secretive. What do they need so many livestock for all of a sudden?"

"Don't worry about all that, just take the money and do the job, let's go!"

Upon hearing the name Innsmouth, Kingston immediately realized that the woman from earlier was likely one of his targets.

So he leaped lightly along the wall to the roof like the wind, only to find that the woman had vanished without a trace.

It was obvious that the woman was a superhuman.

"The need for a large number of livestock naturally requires a large amount of flesh and blood, which is for the sacrifice. East District Baptismal Church..."

Kingston pondered that he would take his men to conduct an investigation later.

Just as he returned to the main street, he suddenly heard an angry roar.

"You despicable locals!"

The speaker was Norton, the most hot-tempered and physically imposing member of his team, responsible for the offensive play.

Kingston looked up and saw his three teammates surrounded by a group of people, with screams coming from the crowd.

Squeezing through the crowd, Kingston saw two young men lying on the ground with their arms wrapped around each other, looking pained.

"What happened?" Kingston asked hurriedly as he came over.

"Team...boss, these guys are trying to scam us!" the hot-tempered Norton said angrily.

“Extortion!?” Kingston turned to look at the two youths on the ground.

At this moment, the two young men, their faces covered in sweat, said, "You're talking nonsense! We were just trying to sell you our product. If you don't want to buy it, fine, but you even hit us!"

Upon hearing this, the surrounding crowd immediately shouted in condemnation: "You bunch of vicious outsiders! You've really gone too far!"

“I know these two men. They are well-known hardworking and good young men in the neighborhood. They have an 80-year-old mother to support and a baby crying for milk. These outsiders are really cruel!”

"Where are the police! Police, come and arrest them!"

"I've already called the police, they'll be here soon!"

"That's nonsense. When did the police become so fast?"

"Don't you know? Since the new mayor took office, the city's security problems have been greatly improved. The police can now respond to calls thirty times faster than before!"

…………

As the surrounding crowd chattered, Norton was about to speak when Kingston stopped him in his tracks.

Kingston said loudly, "I'm so sorry! I'm really sorry! Everyone, please don't get agitated. There must be some misunderstanding here! How about this, we'll take the two injured people to the hospital first, we'll cover the medical expenses, and we'll also compensate them for their lost wages, how about that?"

His voice was very loud and strong, and coupled with the sense of justice emanating from him, the surrounding crowd naturally believed him to some extent.

Norton whispered, "Captain! I didn't touch them at all. I was just about to reach out and shoo them away when they came over, and then they collapsed!"

Kingston glanced at him but said nothing.

He naturally understood the reasoning behind this, but the people around him did not believe it.

Arkham is notorious for its conservatism and xenophobia; they still need to conduct an investigation, and their first operation has already made them public enemies.

Upon hearing this, the surrounding crowd gradually calmed down.

Kingston breathed a sigh of relief, but just when they thought the matter could be resolved properly, five police officers in black uniforms walked over.

The one leading the way was naturally Jike.

"It's Officer Jike!" The people around immediately brightened up when they saw this.

This resolute, handsome, and brave policeman's reputation has spread beyond the city center. In the past two weeks, Jike has subdued thirty criminals and protected twelve citizens from harm, making him a representative figure among police officers.

“I already knew what happened when I arrived,” Zeke said directly as he walked up to Kingston, now quite experienced.

Kingston's expression changed slightly, because he discovered that the five police officers who came this time were all superhumans at least level 20.

"The rumors are true!?" Upon seeing this, Kingston immediately felt that things were not as simple as they had imagined.

Jike casually pulled out handcuffs: "You are now in danger of violating public security and safety laws, involving intentional injury and endangering public order. Please come with us."

“Officer, there’s been some misunderstanding, and we’ve decided to settle this privately,” Kingston said hastily.

Jike said calmly, "Before the law, there is no such thing as a private settlement."

Chapter 0096 A family should be complete.

On the second floor of the Arkham Flower Club, Lilith stood by the window watching the farce unfolding on the street, a satisfied look on her face as she said, "Well done, Sheena."

Standing to the side, Sheena was immediately delighted: "Thank you for your praise, Master."

Then she said, "The rest of the matter can only be left to the master and the master's master."

Lilith nodded and said, "Be careful on the road."

"Yes"

After completing this plan, Sheena's next task is to use her invisibility ability to make the Dagon Cult members appear in the woods north of the Baptismal Church at the right time, so that they can meet Kingston and the others.

At the police station in the central district.

Joseph and his two companions were currently locked in a temporary detention cell, worrying about their next plan.

"What should we do? We're just wasting our time here," the tall young man said somewhat anxiously.

Gina, the calm and collected woman, said nonchalantly, "If we want to rush out, we can rush out anytime."

“No, didn’t you notice that almost all the police officers in this police station are superhumans at level 20 or higher? Only a handful are ordinary people. If a fight breaks out like this, not to mention whether we can win, we won’t be able to stay here any longer.” Joseph remained relatively calm at this point.

"Vice-captain, what should we do?"

Joseph said confidently, "Now we can only rely on Captain Yu's intelligence. He has a wealth of experience and will surely be able to come up with a comprehensive solution."

"Yes, Captain, you definitely have a way," the young man said confidently.

No sooner had he finished speaking than several more people entered the detention cell.

"team leader"

When the three of them saw Kingston leading the way in, they were completely dumbfounded.

Even Gina looked somewhat surprised.

Then, behind the captain, they saw two other familiar team members.

At this point, six members of the seven-man team had been detained, leaving only Karma outside.

The police officer who was detaining the three men in Kingston seemed surprised that they knew each other, then sneered, "As expected, none of you outsiders are any good."

After saying that, he turned around and slammed the prison door shut.

"My God, Captain, what's going on?" Joseph's expression was quite comical.

Kingston coughed. "First of all, thank you for your trust in me, but the situation is a bit complicated right now."

For a moment, the six people looked at each other, unsure of what to say.

Possessing extraordinary power, full of vigor and ambition, he is a superhuman destined to save people from suffering and drive away evil gods and monsters.

The last glimmer of hope for humanity, the Oathbinders who made the pledge of allegiance, were all imprisoned on their very first day in Arkham, ready to make their mark.

After a half-minute silence, Kingston said in a low voice, "Let's talk about our situations first."

Then, the six of them explained their situation and the reasons for being arrested.

After hearing this, Kingston said in a low voice, "There is only one person here who has the power to mobilize citizens, police, and even gangsters to attack us at the same time."

"He's spotted us!" Everyone exclaimed in surprise.

“If that’s the case, then it’s going to be terrible,” Joseph said with a grim expression.

Kingston pondered for a moment: "The fact that they didn't go for the kill means there's still room for maneuver."

“We can’t remain passive like this. We need to notify Karma and Morgan and have them proactively approach the mayor, identify themselves, and initiate negotiations.”

Hearing this, Joseph's eyes widened: "Captain, then what about us?"

Kingston said in a low voice, "If this continues, we can't defeat Los Arkham. As you've noticed, this city has at least sixty superhuman police officers who are at least level 20 or higher. And these are just the police who maintain order in the city. We can't even imagine the other forces hidden in the shadows."

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent.

Kingston continued, "Moreover, judging from the current situation, Los Arkham is not one of those crazy monsters. All his policies are without fault, and are even more fair and pragmatic than anywhere else in the Empire."

"Looking back now, it was too one-sided and reckless of us to judge such a pragmatic and good mayor as a monster simply because a few people were suddenly cured."
