"Om-"

Perlis cut open the crack, jumped out with Carly, and landed on the ground.

At this moment, they had arrived at the Wanglong Pavilion in the Hongyang Palace gardens - the place that Perlis saw in the ancient divine language information stream.

“Did you feel sick when you read that?”

Carly pinched Pearlis's cheek with concern and gently scratched her chin, as if she was greeting a small animal.

"Um...no," Perlis squinted and raised her head, "I don't feel anything..."

Before, when reading the ancient divine language, Perlis would feel a distinct sense of overload and would definitely have a nosebleed.

But this time, she didn't feel anything at all, and even felt very relaxed.

The improvement after being promoted to [Star Flame] is all-round...

"..."

Perlis looked at the tall building in front of her: Obviously, this was part of the garden building and was not usually open to the public.

But today, there are no sentries guarding the place, and it is clear that there are no plans to set up defenses.

This shows that Perlis found the right place.

"Come on, let's go up."

The two of them then began to climb the building, and about ten minutes later, Perlis arrived at the rooftop of Wanglong Pavilion.

The first thing that caught her eye was the huge black skull. Judging from its shape, it belonged to the [Black Dragon] that Perlis had seen in the information stream.

Obviously, it is a high-level body in the Kuroshio ecosystem and has attacked Chaoqu City.

And when Perlis lowered her eyes, she naturally saw the girl in white.

The girl in white was standing on the edge of the attic, holding the railing, looking at the magnificent city under the scorching sun.

Her long hair, as black as night, fluttered in the wind and rippled like waves on a lake at night, giving people a sense of peace.

As her long black hair fluttered, Perlis saw a long sword - that was the sword that cut off the [Black Dragon] with one blow. There were golden patterns carved on it. Even though it was sealed in the scabbard, Perlis could feel the powerful force contained in it.

"Are you the sender?" Perlis said to the back, "It was you who asked us..."

Before Perlis could finish her words, they got stuck in her throat - the black-haired girl turned her head and looked at her.

Long black hair, a pretty face, and eyes as deep as blood, as if there was red thunder contained in them.

Pearlis knew that face, of course she knew it—

"Ibuki Rin...?"

......

"Qi Langdui Black Special Corps Second Class Sergeant Major, Su Yao, come and report!"

At the door of a residential unit, Su Yao saluted the police beside the cordon, and the sun seemed to be burning in her eyes.

But the policeman just waved his hand and said impatiently:

"I'm not your superior. Don't come to me if you need to report."

"Didn't something happen here? It was you who called for reinforcements." Su Yao pointed out.

"How big of a deal can it be? It's just a small matter. A resident on the sixth floor hasn't left home for eight days. The resident reported that there was a smell inside and no one answered the door when they knocked," the police officer said impatiently. "I didn't bring a gun, so I called for reinforcements."

"Why don't you have a gun? Don't you need to carry a gun when you're on patrol?"

Hearing Su Yao say this, the policeman widened his eyes in disbelief, and then said:

"This is Chaoqu City. Why do we have to carry guns when patrolling?"

"What should we do if we encounter such a thing while patrolling without a gun?" Su Yao asked.

"Call for reinforcements. What's the big deal? Just wait a while." The police looked at Su Yao with more and more strange eyes. "This is Chaoquer. Where did you come from? The border?"

Su Yao looked at the policeman for a while, and then she asked:

"Which room on the sixth floor?"

"Six-hundred-and-five, first room on the right."

The policeman finished speaking lazily, and then saw Su Yao suddenly flip over and directly cross the cordon.

She drew the pistol from her waist, turned on the safety, and walked cautiously to the door of the apartment building.

"Hey! What are you doing!"

"The reinforcements you requested are here, just wait."

"Not waiting for more people? Is that okay with you?"

"If we wait any longer, and something happens, it will be too late."

Su Yao said, opening the door of the apartment building and turning on her factor shield at the same time.

According to her experience, if residents suddenly disappear from their rooms, it is likely a sign of a blackwater invasion.

If there is any emergency or illness, they can use [Poetry Sea] to ask for help almost instantly. Even if the wearer faints due to force majeure, [Poetry Sea] can quickly check the wearer's status and automatically call for help.

These things are common sense to soldiers on the border.

"..."

5) Three Sisters (Part 10)

Su Yao walked cautiously in the corridor. She tried to make her steps as light as possible so as not to disturb any possible threats.

When passing by some doors, Su Yao heard voices from inside - it was obvious that the building had not been evacuated yet, but a temporary cordon was set up at the door to prevent more people from entering.

Why do these guys seem to be amateurs? If they are not going to evacuate, why do you set up a cordon?

Or maybe they were planning to evacuate, but they didn't dare to enter the building because they didn't have guns?

What kind of police is this...

Su Yao put these thoughts behind her for the time being. The light in the apartment building was a little dim, and she had to squint her eyes to make sure she didn't miss any details.

Soon, Su Yao arrived at the sixth floor. She slowly walked to the door of No. 605. A foul smell hit her in the face, which aroused Su Yao's vigilance.

This doesn't smell like a rotting corpse... It's more like the gas emitted by the proliferation of Kuroshio derivatives...

The police downstairs said that if no one answered the door after knocking, there was no need to repeat the process and the door had to be broken down immediately.

Su Yao took out a small ring from her waist and installed it on the door lock. Just as she was about to break the door, the door of No. 604 next door suddenly opened.

"...!"

Su Yao subconsciously turned the gun to that side, but met a confused face wrapped in a headscarf:

"Wow! Damn dry claws! I'm a good citizen!"

It was a middle-aged woman who had obviously just finished taking a shower. She opened the door and took a look when she heard the noise.

"Quiet," Su Yao quickly put down the gun and called up the [Sea of ​​Poetry] interface, "I'm a policeman."

"I know you're a police officer, Mom, I'm just telling you the situation."

The old lady muttered for a long time, then pointed to the door beside her:

"It stinks in there. How can a little girl like you do this? Can you handle it?"

"It can be done, please rest assured," Su Yao said patiently, "Please wait in the house and don't open the door, okay?"

The aunt nodded, and just as she was about to close the door, Su Yao asked again:

"Wait, do you know the information of the residents?"

"Information? He seems to be a researcher, I don't remember much, he rarely goes out, stays indoors every day."

After the aunt finished speaking, she closed the door, and the corridor returned to its usual quietness.

I feel like it’s a little difficult to communicate with the residents...I still need to learn more in this area.

Su Yao thought so, turned her eyes back to the door of No. 605, and opened the small ring——

"Buzzing..."

A circle of blue light came out from the small ring, converting the destructive factor in the air into factor energy, and then used its high temperature to fuse the lock core.

With a "click", the ring fell to the ground and the door opened.

Su Yao held the gun, pushed the door open, and poked her head in slightly.

The stench became stronger and stronger. Su Yao couldn't help but cover her nose and look around the room carefully.

The simple living room looks clean and tidy, but the curtains are drawn tightly, shrouding the living room in darkness.

Su Yao walked into the living room carefully, looking around, but didn't find anything unusual.

Everything is in order, without even a trace of clutter, showing the quality of the owner of the room.

Su Yao continued searching. She walked through the living room and came to a small corridor, listening attentively with bated breath.

Then, she heard a slight dripping sound—

"Pap...pap..."

Su Yao looked in the direction of the sound and found that the source of the sound was the bathroom on the side of the corridor - the door was half open, and the carpet was soaked with water, reflecting a black diamond-like luster in the dim light.

Is that black water?

Su Yao called up the [Sea of ​​Poetry] panel, silently reported what happened, and then continued to move forward.

She walked to the bathroom door, walked around the half-open door, and pointed the gun into the bathroom.

——No one.

Unexpectedly, the entire bathroom was also well organized, with white walls, a bathtub filled with water, and a mirror.

The only thing that concerned Su Yao was the decoration on the sink in front of the mirror: there was a black candle on each side, which was not burning, but its projection was constantly boiling like a shadow.

A strange feeling burned in Su Yao's heart. She resisted the urge to turn around and run, and slowly walked to the sink, looking carefully at the things in the sink:

It was a bird's nest-like structure woven from countless vines and filled with small black stones.

And in the center of the chaotic stone formation, there was something that made Su Yao gasp -

——A hand.

The bones of the hand were twisted hideously, and black liquid was constantly flowing from the cross-section, overflowing the vine-woven bird's nest and continuously falling onto the bathroom floor. This was the source of the dripping sound.

Like... some kind of ritual...

Su Yao suppressed the fear in her heart. Since there was no one here, she planned to retreat and protect the scene.

Before leaving, she raised her head as if possessed by a ghost and looked at the mirror in front of the sink.

Then, Su Yao discovered the source of the weird feeling she had felt since entering the bathroom——

——There was no reflection of her in the mirror.

When she realized this, the mirror seemed to have a strong suction force, and Su Yao only felt that her vision was getting closer and closer to the mirror.

She raised the pistol and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

"Clap!"

Two shots were fired, the mirror exploded, the candle shadow trembled for a moment, and then went out.

At this moment, there was a sound of water bursting behind Su Yao - she turned her head and found a black shadow jumping out of the bathtub.

Su Yao raised the gun in a well-trained manner, aimed accurately at the forehead of the black water figure, and pulled the trigger——

"Snapped!"

A beam of blue crystal enveloped the derivative's head when it hit - this was a special bullet that would produce a chemical reaction when it encountered an object made of black water, giving birth to blue crystals.

Wounds caused by conventional bullets hitting the black water structure can easily be immune to its powerful recovery ability, and this crystal can effectively weaken the structure of the black water itself, making it lose its ability to recover.

Even though Su Yao's shot was very accurate, the claws of the hunched black figure still brushed her arm. A sharp pain came over her, and Su Yao gasped softly, then reluctantly aimed again -

"Snapped!"

This time, the black water construct fell to the ground and did not move.
