Walking out of the evil god's space, Aicheng Hualian felt the changes in his body.
Since the evil god has left the condensed state, the evil energy in his body has begun to become active again.
The black mass on her chest was no longer the sluggish vortex, but had evolved into a jellyfish-like shape - a large pool of dark blue gel in the middle, with dense tentacles extending outward, and black lines like blood vessels appearing under the skin.
"Psychic power is no longer usable."
In order to resist the resurgent evil energy, her spiritual energy was once again invested in the massive project of promoting the regeneration of flesh and blood, and she was unable to extricate herself.
In other words, the current Aicheng Hualian has returned to his previous state of using the power of the evil god to hunt evil spirits.
"There are pros and cons. At least, the ability to teleport through the subspace can be used again."
"Those three ribs are enough to last four days."
When he opened his eyes, a faint blue light flashed by. Aicheng Hualian clenched his fists and saw the faint light under the skin of his hands.
"The power of the evil energy is growing stronger, and my body seems unable to bear it."
"I don't want to explode and die."
Now, she not only had to raise the evil god and help him through his hunting state, but more importantly, her own growth rate had to keep up with the evil god's evolution.
[Didi…]
Something in his pocket made a noise, and Aicheng Hualian took a look and saw that it was the watch used to communicate mission information.
During the battle just now, this watch didn't break down at all. It's really hard for it.
[Investigator Chi Yan, please come to our usual place for a reunion. A new situation has arisen.]
The watch contained a message sent by Qing Zhumin himself.
[The mine investigator went to the location you mentioned an hour ago and is now unconscious and appears to be dying.]
Chapter 80 Dark Thunder's Death
"When did I tell anyone else where the mastermind was hiding?"
Seeing the message sent by Qing Zhumin, Aicheng Hualian was confused.
Previously, after she had located the destination of the teleportation array through the soul-fixing instrument, she had never told this news to anyone except the three private investigators from Tianyi City.
How did the mine investigator know about this?
Thinking of this, Aicheng Hualian looked through the posts in the mission forum, but found that many people knew that the mastermind was hiding in Bangshan Town, and her name could be seen from time to time in the posts.
Was he being eavesdropped on? Was he being followed?
Dark evil energy exploded from her chest, sweeping her from head to toe with sweeping momentum, but found no eavesdropping or surveillance equipment.
After asking the ghost hunter Wusun Yun through the evil-eliminating platform, she found out that it was the three private investigators in Tianyi City who resold her information to other people.
"Wow, so the three of them are acting as middlemen? I thought they would rush to Bangshan Town first, but I didn't expect them to make some money from the information first."
Not only that, when the three investigators were selling the information, they did not forget to mention Aishiro Karen's name, and specifically emphasized that the information was obtained through a transaction with Investigator Chi Yan.
It’s not that they are kind and don’t want to take credit for Aicheng Hualian’s achievements.
It’s just because they can’t guarantee the authenticity of this news. If someone goes to Bangshan Town in advance and finds that the information is false, the responsibility will only be on Aicheng Hualian.
"They are a group of smart people. They let others explore the way first before selling information."
After tearing open a crack, Aicheng Hualian stepped into the subspace and arrived near Qingping County the next moment.
It was night time, and Qingping County, which had few residents, was utterly quiet. The bright moon was obscured by dark clouds, and no light could shine through. Several street lamps were broken, flickering tremblingly as if they were coughing.
After putting on the mask and the costume, Aicheng Hualian glanced at his mobile phone. The furry little Black No. 1 was sleeping soundly in front of the computer desk. All the tasks sent by the Intelligence Department had been completed by it.
After confirming that everything was safe at home, Aicheng Hualian took a few minutes to walk to the front of the Tea Garden Tavern, knocked on the door of the private room on the second floor, and a familiar face opened the door for her.
"Inspector Chi Yan, you're here. Boss Zhu Min has been waiting for you for a long time."
The man who opened the door was Xing Jiu. This man who was arrogant at the beginning was now extremely respectful to her, a D-level psychic, for fear that he would do something wrong and anger her.
The world of psychics is so realistic that the difference of one level can make a world of difference.
"Investigator Chi Yan! You're finally here." Seeing the iconic black and red mask, the beautiful woman in a tight dress quickly stood up, with a beautiful smile on her face, to welcome the arrival of Aishiro Karen.
"I didn't expect you to find the kidnappers' hiding place in just a few days. You're really quick!"
Her eyes curved into crescents because of her smile, and the respect in Qing Zhumin's words was impeccable. If you didn't know better, you would think she was meeting the governor.
"You're too kind. I'm just completing my mission." Sitting in her seat, Aicheng Hualian got straight to the point. "Let's not waste time on trivial matters. What happened to the Dark Mine Investigator?"
Aishiro Karen had some impression of this investigator who had tried to invite her to join the small group but was rejected by her, and who had the misfortune to meet a three-headed skeleton and was defeated miserably, and had his left foot cut off.
"That's it..."
The projector that had been placed in the room was turned on, and a surveillance screen suddenly appeared on the wall.
It was a well-equipped ward, and lying on the bed was a weak man. He was Ye Xingwu, a private investigator at the peak of E-rank.
The investigator who was quite famous in the Donghua City Exorcism Platform was now pale, breathing weakly, with an IV in his arm and electrodes connected to his chest. The electrocardiogram next to him was sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and was very unstable.
"How did he become like this?"
"We don't know much about it. We only know that after Ye Xingwu learned the kidnappers' hiding place, he went to Bangshan Town alone. When he came back, he was already halfway to death." Qing Zhumin looked at Ye Xingwu on the screen with a worried look on his face.
"The only people who could harm an investigator to this extent are either fellow psychics or those evil spirits."
As she spoke, she glanced slightly at Aicheng Hualian and secretly compared them in her heart.
The peak E-rank Dark Mine Investigator went to that Bangshan Town for only an hour, and when he came back, he looked half-dead.
Although there was a huge gap between D-rank investigators and E-rank investigators, the tragic plight of Dark Thunder Investigator still cast a shadow over Qing Zhumin's heart...
Can Investigator Chi Yan successfully solve this case? I heard that the son of the Public Security Bureau Chief of neighboring Tianyi City has been kidnapped...
"Did he say anything when he came back?"
"He didn't say much." Qing Zhumin shook his head, stroking the teacup in front of him. "He just told us that there was something strange in that town, and we had to ask official investigators to solve it."
"Besides him, there were also several investigators who refused to believe in evil and went to that mountain town together. They also looked depressed when they returned."
A list of names was sent to Aicheng Hualian's email address. She looked down and found that there were six people on the list, all of them were E-rank investigators.
Among them, Aicheng Hualian also found an investigator with whom she had a nodding acquaintance.
The psychic painter, Duanmu Xue. The woman with white hair and eyebrows, whose skin was as white as cream, was a perfect example. She loved to use her brush and spiritual tools to perform spiritual skills.
"Alas, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry." Aicheng Hualian shook his head and looked at the mine investigator in the surveillance video, knowing that the other party was beyond saving.
Others couldn't see it, but she, who had died once before, was very familiar with the black aura lingering around Ye Xingwu.
On the night when her heart was pierced by the Mind Flayer, as her consciousness gradually left her body, she saw the black air floating beside her, like some kind of silk thread that was trying to pull her into an unknown space.
As if to verify her inner judgment, Ye Xingwu on the video screen suddenly began to twitch, triggering the alarm of the medical equipment.
Doctors and nurses ran in from outside and tried to hold down his body, but found that the patient, who was dying before, became extremely strong as if injected with adrenaline, waving his limbs to push them all away.
"No! Get them out of there!"
Aicheng Hualian said quickly, his tone leaving no room for doubt.
"Emergency order, evacuate that ward as quickly as possible and seal off the entire hospital."
Xing Jiu behind him sent a command, and an uncertain voice came from the other end of the intercom, "But the mine investigator..."
"Idiot! Leave it alone! If you want to die, just stay there!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a pair of dark hands suddenly stretched out from Ye Xingwu's mouth.
Those hands pressed down on his chin and upper jaw from the inside, continuously expanding his mouth. After a few seconds, Ye Xingwu's mouth was torn into two pieces.
Blood spurted out, staining the bed red.
For a moment, everyone was stunned.
Chapter 81 Let’s go!
"Ahhh!"
A shrill scream emanated from Inspector An Lei's torn mouth, blood, flesh, and teeth scattering across the ground. The dark hands continued tearing downward, creating a half-meter-long gash in Ye Xingwu's body, from his mouth to his chest, spilling the Inspector's internal organs onto the ground.
The bloody scene on the screen made everyone in the private room frown, but no one turned off the projector. Everyone present was accustomed to seeing blood, and except for Qing Zhumin, whose face turned pale, everyone else just stared at the surveillance footage seriously, afraid to miss a single detail.
A pitch-black monster crawled out from the hole in Ye Xingwu's chest, threw the organs it took out aside, and blood and bones fell to the ground.
Now, everyone could clearly see the evil appearance of the creature.
Its pitch-black skin, as sticky as oil, dripped continuously, carving holes in the ground. The evil spirit's entire body resembled a human, with legs and arms, but its head was bloated and massive, the size of a washbasin. The strangest thing was that a mask resembling Ye Xingwu's was attached to its face, as if it had ripped off the Dark Mine Investigator's face and affixed it to its own.
Evil spirit, vengeful spirit puppet.
Aicheng Hualian immediately recognized the evil name.
The vengeful ghost puppet is a vengeful evil spirit that can extract evil energy from the resentment in human hearts. It is extremely harmful and will actively hurt people to gain a large amount of resentment. It also has the strange ability to take over human bodies and is listed on the must-kill list by the evil spirit response department.
However, with the joint efforts of the evil spirit response departments, this evil spirit should have disappeared several years ago, but now it has reappeared, which even makes Aicheng Hualian curious.
The place called Bangshan Town is really a bit strange.
"Roar!" The vengeful ghost puppet roared towards the sky, and the skin on its face was torn into long strips by its wide-open mouth.
Even after being filtered by the video equipment, the shrill howling still tortured the ears of everyone present, forcing Qing Zhumin to wear earplugs.
"Are the emergency personnel on the way?" she asked Xing Jiu who was standing beside her.
"They'll arrive at the Third Hospital in ten minutes."
"Okay... don't forget to inform Ye Xingwu's family that he died in the line of duty. Come up with a decent explanation, and don't skimp on the pension. Our company will also cover his funeral expenses."
"learn."
[Gurgle…]
As they spoke, a pair of deep blue eyes emerged from Aicheng Hualian's chest, peering through her clothes at the demon on the screen, gulping. A mass like a black jellyfish stirred, as if trying to emerge from her body and devour the demon on the screen.
"Shh...be good and don't make any noise." Aicheng Hualian quickly communicated with the evil god through her mind, "Didn't I give you the black-striped ribs? Eat those bones first."
[I'm done eating... I'm hungry...]
"So fast?" Aicheng Hualian asked in surprise, raising his eyebrows uncontrollably.
She now realized how serious the impact of the so-called hunting state was on the evil god's state.
In the past, the black-striped ribs could sustain even the most hungry Heretic God for four days. She threw three black-striped ribs at the Heretic God, but he devoured them all in a flash.
You know, the evil god is currently only at the critical juncture of advancement to the hunting state, and has not yet truly entered the hunting state.
Thinking of this, Aicheng Hualian knew that he could not delay any longer.
She stood up and put her clothes in order. "I'll leave now and head to that mountain town."
"You're leaving now?" Qing Zhumin's eyes widened in shock, not knowing how to respond for a moment. "But don't you need to make any preparations? Ye Xingwu is, after all, a peak E-rank psychic. If something happens to him, I'm worried..."
Originally, Qing Zhumin naturally hoped that Aicheng Hualian would leave as soon as possible, but now that Ye Xingwu died tragically in front of her, she became a little worried.
If even Aicheng Hualian fell there, then she would really have no way to save her daughter.
"Do you want me to send a few people to Bangshan Town to find out the situation?" In addition to Xingjiu, Qing Zhumin also has several low-level E-level psychics under his command.
"What? Don't you think the number of dead people is enough?" Aicheng Hualian glanced at the other person, watching the boss of Xijian Company lower his head guiltily, then smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will rescue your daughter."
She refused all help from Qing Zhumin and insisted on going alone.
In addition to not wanting too many people to die, she can only use evil energy now, so it is best not to have other people around her when fighting against evil spirits.
She didn't want to get her hands stained with the blood of her compatriots for such an outrageous reason as "silencing them".
……
After leaving the Tea Garden Tavern, Aicheng Hualian took out his mobile phone and communicated with his computer at home, asking the computer to search for information about Bangshan Town on the Internet.
Having a self-aware computer search for information is much faster than for her to do it herself.
Just a few seconds later, the computer sent a text message.
"Master, Bangshan Town is named after the mountain called Tianyu Peak that it's adjacent to. It has a permanent population of 7,463. It's a relatively poor town, listed as one of Nanling Prefecture's impoverished counties, and receives subsidies from the prefecture government."
According to the search results, there is an F-rank psychic stationed in Bangshan Town. He is a staff member dispatched from Donghua City's Evil Response Department. His name is Lin Ye Fusi, and he is 31 years old.
"Thanks for your hard work."
