Huo An was horrified when he heard a loud bang behind him. He turned around and saw two dents scratched into the corridor behind him. At the end of the dents was the evil spirit embedded in the alloy wall, crawling out of the broken wall in a somewhat comical manner.

"This is at?"

What was the other party doing? He had such terrifying speed, but instead of attacking him, he was punching a wall?

Huo An's face was full of confusion, but his hands were not idle. He stuffed the remaining bullets in his pocket into the magazine, fired them into the evil demon's head, and then smashed them into the opponent's armor.

He knew these bullets were completely useless, but every second he could delay was a second he could save.

"Oh, this evil energy from the evil god is really hard to control."

Aicheng Hualian crawled out of the hole in the wall, brushed off the dust on his armor, and looked at Huo An in front of him with a serious expression, feeling helpless.

Just now, she really wanted to punch Huo An on the back, but she didn't expect that she just stomped her feet on the ground, and her whole body was like a cannonball fired from a gun, hitting the wall at the other end of the corridor, making a hole in it.

The carefully crafted alloy wall that could block psychic energy was smashed through by her like paper. The huge impact force broke her spine into three parts, but it recovered as before thanks to her monstrous self-healing ability.

"Luckily I didn't throw a punch just now, otherwise Brother Huo An would have been broken into two pieces."

"Let's use the tentacles formed from the evil god's aura to attack. They'll make a loud noise and be easy to control, and they won't cause irreparable damage."

Thinking of this, Aicheng Hualian's mind moved, and a breath of air based on evil energy drifted out and merged into the ground under her feet.

The breaths stirred the solid rock and steel plates, melting them into a sticky jelly, and then shaped the jelly into tentacles with slender tips and thick roots.

The tentacles broke through the ground and once again bound Huo An.

"Tsk, I'm out of bullets." Huo An pulled out a forearm-length blade from his back, his face sullen. "I'm not good at using melee weapons."

"boom!"

At this moment, two light waves came from the other side of the corridor and pushed the tentacles out, giving him the opportunity to retreat.

Reinforcements arrived.

Chapter 56: Coincidences within Coincidences

"Reinforcements have finally arrived!"

Putting down the heavy stone in his heart, Huo An looked at a figure appearing from the other side of the corridor and couldn't help but feel puzzled.

Why is there only one reinforcement?

Through the fight just now, he knew very clearly that the strength of the evil creature must be dealt with by the official investigator himself.

Those colleagues who are also on duty in the Intelligence Department should be able to come to the same conclusion through surveillance cameras.

Then why did only one person come?

If we want to delay the incident until the official investigators patrolling outside arrive, we will need at least twenty armed men.

Did the other guys desert the battlefield?

"Hey, why aren't there more reinforcements...huh?"

Before he could finish his words, he obediently shut his mouth, opened his narrow eyes wide, and looked at the woman who appeared in front of him.

The other person had long purple hair tied into a ponytail hanging behind her, and a black mask covering her lips and nose. Under a pair of wide-rimmed glasses were a pair of soft emerald green eyes.

She was wearing her iconic black light-absorbing combat uniform, with an intricately crafted longbow hanging on her back. She held a book in her left hand and a pen in her right hand, looking curiously at the mysterious evil creature.

"This is... Inspector Dream Chaser!? Why is Inspector Dream Chaser here?"

Dream Chaser Investigator, one of the only three official investigators in Donghua City, has a rank of D and is responsible for the management of the west and north sides of Donghua City.

At this time, the other party should be patrolling the northwest border area of ​​Donghua City in the air, which is dozens of kilometers away from the Intelligence Department. How could they arrive at the scene as soon as the accident happened?

"This evil spirit, I don't think it's recorded in the official database. Is it a newly appeared species?"

Ignoring Huo An's shocked expression, Inspector Dream Chaser passed by him and observed the evil spirit standing there as if in a daze. He used the pen in his right hand to write and draw on the notebook in his left hand, recording the other party's appearance in the notebook.

The Dream Investigator can extract psychic energy from the human emotions of pursuing dreams and longing for success, and has a strong curiosity about all knowledge and the unknown.

Now, a new evil creature appeared before her, arousing her interest.

The reason why she is in this intelligence department is very simple, because of Ai Cheng Hua Lian.

Just this morning, the kind-hearted investigator Tsuzaki Mahiru came up to her with a smug look on her face and told her, "There's a girl in the Intelligence Department who can see through curses and is very likely a soulless body." After hearing this news, she immediately rushed to the Intelligence Department, retrieved the surveillance video from the medical room that day, and called the doctor who treated the captain of the third team over for questioning.

Taking all aspects into consideration, the orange-haired girl does need special care.

But I didn't expect that the girl that Tsuzaki Mayu was talking about was actually Aishiro Karen.

"I originally wanted to tell Tsuzaki Mahiru to distance herself from that girl, but now it seems I should pay more attention to that Aishiro Karen."

As the head of the intelligence department, the dream-chasing investigation officer Xing Jianjuna naturally attaches great importance to talents like Aicheng Hualian who can see through curses.

Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected gain tonight - a mysterious humanoid evil spirit that had never appeared before.

The Warp is vast and host to countless wonders, and naturally, the number of evil spirits that inhabit it is also countless. In the past thousand years since records began, the Evil Response Department has collected tens of thousands of evil spirits, and every year, news of new evil spirits emerges around the world.

Now, a brand new evil spirit stood alive in front of Hoshimi Junna, and she couldn't help but feel excited.

"Should we capture it first? Or dissect it?"

Her psychic perception, which was as high as the intermediate level of D-grade, made her clearly know that the evil spirit in front of her was at the primary level of D-grade, which was two small realms lower than her intermediate level. It was not difficult to deal with this evil spirit.

However, if she knew that the evil creature in front of her was the same girl who asked her to come to the Intelligence Department in person today, I wonder how she would feel.

"Ah, I didn't expect to meet another official investigator here."

While Hoshimi Junna was observing the "Evil Lizard Man", Aishiro Karen was also observing the dream-chasing investigator in front of her.

In order to better control the power from the evil god, she suppressed the evil energy in her body to the primary level of D-order to prevent accidentally killing other people.

But the appearance of the Dream Chaser Investigator disrupted her plans.

"Rather, the plan went even more smoothly. It was a pleasant surprise."

"I'd like to test the strength of the so-called D-rank investigators to prepare for future hunts."

Since she was certain to face enemies above C-rank, using a D-rank psychic as a training target was exactly the opportunity she had been waiting for.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the arena was almost frozen, each side viewing the other as their prey. It was just that one was eager to try something new, while the other was practicing for a life-threatening action in the future.

"Snapped…"

The moment Hoshimi Jun closed the notebook in her left hand, Ai Cheng Hualian moved.

The rapidly leaping body exceeded the speed of sound, and the sonic boom echoed back and forth in this small space. The thunderous sound exploded between the resonances, enough to make psychics below level F deaf.

“Good physical fitness.”

With a graceful turn, she dodged Aishiro Karen's attack, put her book and pen into her pocket, pulled out an arrow from the quiver behind her, and struck Aishiro Karen directly on the back.

Bang!

The bow and arrow, made of an unknown material, hit the pitch-black armor hard. The powerful reaction force attacked both sides at the same time, causing Hoshimi Jun's palm to feel numb and Aishiro Karen's back to tremble.

This is not the end yet. The spiritual energy from Junna Hoshimi's body used the arrow as a bridge to pierce the dark armor, trying to get into the armor and kill Karen Aishiro inside.

At this moment, Aicheng Hualian, who had maintained a calm smile from the beginning, suddenly changed her expression.

Damn, I forgot I can't come into contact with other people's psychic energy, otherwise the guy inside me...

Before she could react, a powerful evil energy burst out from her chest.

At that moment, a C-level evil energy wave flashed by, and a string of black spheres followed the arrow like beads and bit into Hoshimi Junna's right hand.

then……

"Boom! Boom!!"

Five spheres, five explosions.

Hoshimi Jun only had time to use his psychic power to protect his body before he was thrown backwards by the powerful impact, smashing through three walls and flying directly outside the Intelligence Department.

"what!"

She stood up unsteadily, her entire right hand was covered in blood and twisted like a branch ravaged by a storm, and it was obvious that it was broken.

"This guy...hiss...that kind of fel energy fluctuation is so strong!"

"I was careless. It's not a D-rank evil spirit at all."

Chapter 57: The Territory of the Evil God

"Tsk, my right hand is temporarily unusable. This kind of evil energy is difficult to remove."

Hoshimi Junna glanced at her limp right hand, where the black evil energy was constantly eroding the flesh within. She tried to counteract it with her own psychic energy, but found that it took ten parts of her psychic energy to counteract one part of the evil energy.

While this level of damage wouldn't leave a D-rank investigator disabled, let alone fatal, it wasn't a good idea to lose a hand when facing a formidable foe.

"Is its level C?" She looked at the evil creature with an extremely heavy gaze. The C-level evil energy fluctuations caused by the previous evil energy explosion instantly increased the danger level of this evil creature in her mind by several levels.

If it is a C-level evil spirit, I'm afraid only the investigator stationed in the city center can solve it.

However, that C-rank investigator is usually elusive and his activities have never left the city center. He is the last barrier of the entire city and will only take action when the crisis is most critical.

"And the evil spirit in front of us isn't necessarily a C-rank. Most C-rank evil spirits have a certain level of intelligence, some can even communicate with humans, and have even mastered the concept of a domain. If it were a C-rank, it would have deployed its domain immediately."

Observing the evil spirit standing there in a daze, Hoshimi Jun'na couldn't match it with the words "possessing intelligence" and "owning a territory".

"Perhaps, it's a peak D-rank being? It's just barely touching the C-rank realm. The fel energy in battle will fluctuate, creating the illusion of being at the C-rank."

With abundant knowledge, Junna Hoshimi calmly analyzed the data about the evil of the Lizardmen. On the other side, Karen Aishiro was fighting against the evil energy in her body.

Before, at the moment when Hoshimi Jun's psychic energy touched her body, the evil god in her body instantly rioted, and the evil energy flowing in her body broke through the restraints she had bound herself like a violent tiger, and jumped from the initial D level to the C level in the blink of an eye. If Aicheng Hualian had not forcibly suppressed the rioting evil energy at the last moment, Hoshimi Jun would now be a corpse.

Every time, when the spiritual energy of another creature touched her skin, the evil god in her body would immediately pour evil energy into her body, trying to completely erase the existence of that creature.

She knew why the evil god did not allow other people's spirits to touch him.

For gods, beings of extremely high status, the energy released by themselves is not something illusory, but an extension of their own existence and consciousness.

Wherever the energy of God radiates, God's existence will extend, and God's territory will expand.

In other words, the energy released by the gods is a means of marking territory. If the energy of other beings invades the energy field of the gods, it is tantamount to declaring war.

Correspondingly, the evil god that Aicheng Hualian raised in his body viewed the energy of other creatures in the same way.

In His eyes, the energy of other creatures is the border that declares the scope of His territory. If anyone dares to use energy to invade His territory, there will be a fight to the death.

And His territory is the city of love, Hualian.

It wasn't some abstract flirtatious talk, but simply the most basic self-esteem of an evil god.

Gods need to have their own territory to demonstrate their status and power, but the evil god who signed a contract with Aicheng Hualian has been limited to the girl's body for five years. His territory, of course, is her.

It's that simple, Aicheng Hualian has suffered greatly in the past five years.

This kind of carnivorous paranoia that belongs to God has pushed her to the brink of exposing her own secrets and becoming an enemy of the whole world countless times.

In the first year, perhaps because the evil god had just escaped from a near-death state, he had no sense of security, so he even regarded the free spiritual energy in the air as a threat. He always tried to use his evil power to clear out the alien energy in the entire space, forcing Aicheng Hualian to restrain the other party's excessive behavior at all times, and he couldn't even sleep peacefully.

Later, with her constant preaching and efforts, the evil god's reaction was no longer so extreme, but "not touching the psychic energy of other creatures" was still the other party's bottom line. She also carefully maintained this principle and did not allow the psychic energy of other creatures to touch herself.

So much so that during the year she became a private investigator, she was only attacked by the evil energy of two evil spirits while hunting evil spirits.

The two unfortunate evil spirits were blown into powder by the wrath of an evil god, without even a chance to escape back to the subspace.

"Calm down and don't make so much noise. Seriously, you're clearly in the condensed state, yet you still have the energy to break free from my restraints?"

The evil energy surging in her veins was still boiling, revealing naked murderous intent, pointing directly at Hoshimi Junna in front of her like thousands of sharp thorns.

While she was calming the evil energy, the Dream Chaser Investigator began to communicate.

"Hey! Can you understand me?"

Adhering to the habit of giving it a try, Hoshimi Junna tried to communicate with the evil spirit in front of her. If this evil spirit had really reached C-level, it should be able to understand what she said.

"If you understand, just nod." As he spoke, Hoshimi Jun waved his left hand desperately behind his back, asking the reinforcements to retreat quickly.

When she was blasted out of the Intelligence Department by the evil energy, the staff stationed in the Intelligence Department quietly moved behind her through a secret passage, wanting to fight alongside her.

But how?

Hoshimi Junna knew very well that even he might be defeated here. There were only a few of the other guys at E level, and rashly joining the battle would only be a burden.

At this moment, the evil spirit stretched out her hand and pointed in front of her, and a round black hole appeared in front of her.

Then, it thrust its sharp claws into the hole in front of it.

"not good!"
