I raised the evil spirit and became an evil investigator

All other tribes operating in the surrounding area follow the lead of the Tiger Herding Tribe.

"Hey! Get out here now! You killed our pet, and you're too proud to take responsibility for it?"

The girl outside became more and more angry and even kicked the hood of the car.

Her beloved pet went crazy for no apparent reason three days ago. Not only did it refuse to obey her orders, but it also bit everyone it saw. This already made the girl upset, and now it was tragically killed by someone else's gun. She was immediately furious!

pet?

Upon hearing this, Huo An immediately rolled down the window and asked in a low voice, "Is this tiger that slaughters people on the road your pet?"

"Don't you understand what I'm saying? You killed our tribe's pet, why don't you just come down and pay me back?"

Upon hearing the words from the chief's daughter, the tribesmen who had been surrounding the tiger's corpse surrounded the vehicle with unfriendly expressions and stared at Huo An, as if they were ready to attack him if they disagreed.

These people knew that Huo An had a gun, but they were not afraid at all. It seemed that they had ways to deal with guns.

"Ridiculous!" Even Huo An, who usually kept his mouth shut, was infuriated by the arrogance of the group before him. He turned to look at the captain, and after receiving his approval, he said sternly, "I thought this ferocious tiger was a wild species, running onto the road to devour people. I didn't expect it to be an owned beast."

"Now, on behalf of the Evil Response Department, I'm calling for accountability and demanding your tribal leader come out! If you can't provide a reason, your tribe will no longer be allowed to hunt here. Go back north and graze!"

The girl was stunned by Huo An's scolding.

When she came to her senses and was about to explode, she was stopped by a middle-aged man.

"Xiaodie, don't be impulsive!"

The man who stopped the girl had dark skin and a tiger's claw mark on one eye, suggesting he was blind. He used his single remaining eye to examine the logo on the third squad's vehicle. After a moment's careful scrutiny, his heart skipped a beat.

It’s bad, the background is bigger than the sky.

"Uncle Haifeng?"

"These aren't people we can afford to offend." Zhao Haifeng tried to conceal his panic and whispered to the person next to him, "Those people in the car are official forces in the city."

"what?"

Everyone, including the girl, turned pale, and some people even began to quietly back away, not wanting to stay there for another second.

City and official power, these two words are more useful to these tribal people than any other threats.

"Uncle Haifeng...you...are you telling the truth?"

"Why would I lie to you!" Zhao Haifeng felt his back getting wet, and he couldn't stop the sweat. "The logo on that car clearly shows that they're from the... Evil Response Department! They're one of the guys your father warns the tribe members not to mess with every night!"

Not only should we not offend them, but we should also respect these human heroes.

"Haha." Captain Donglan, who was sitting in the passenger seat, laughed. She opened the car door and got out, smiling. "What's going on? You haven't given an explanation for why this tiger is eating people here."

"Sir... ahaha, I can explain." Zhao Haifeng quickly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, walked up to Donglan, and spoke humbly.

After a few words, the members of the third team understood how things had developed.

It turned out that a tiger named Xiao Ling'er in this tiger herding tribe seemed to be possessed by an evil spirit three days ago. It was restless and roaring wildly. Not only did it rush out of the fence, it also ran around in the wilderness. Three hours ago, it broke into Federal Highway 294 and wreaked havoc here.

These people also rushed here by following the tiger's footprints, but the tragedy had already happened.

They had no choice but to lie in ambush in the bushes on both sides of the road, discussing how to awaken the tiger's sanity, but unexpectedly they were shot dead by Huo An who was passing by.

At this point, the girl next to her started crying again.

"You failed to discipline your spirit pet properly and let it kill someone. Your Tiger Herding Tribe bears a heavy responsibility, hmm..."

Just as Donglan was thinking about how to deal with them, Aicheng Hualian discovered something unusual.

She opened the car door and, while everyone else's attention was on Donglan, walked towards the tiger's body step by step.

In her eyes, she could clearly see the black worms wriggling on the tiger's corpse.

The aura of those black insects was almost exactly the same as the black air that hovered around Donglan's left arm when she was injured before.

The tiger was cursed.

Chapter 149: Eliminating the Curse

"This tiger is cursed."

Just as Captain Donglan was giving a verbal verdict to the Muhu Tribe, Aicheng Hualian, who was standing next to the tiger corpse, suddenly spoke, and dozens of eyes were immediately focused on her.

"curse?"

Many of the tribesmen present were hearing this term for the first time, and they were discussing it in whispers. Aicheng Hualian had no intention of explaining it to them, but instead looked at his captain, waiting for his decision.

"Curse, the same as me back then?"

After receiving a positive answer, Captain Donglan frowned immediately.

Since they are the same, it means that the curse on this tiger was done by the Chongling Cult.

Although there are suspicions that other humans are colluding with evil spirits, the largest evil organization today is the Chongling Cult, so it is right to suspect them.

If Donglan didn't have a mission, she would have wanted to follow the clues to find the mastermind, but they didn't have the time now, so they could only record everything they found.

She turned around and gestured, and Emily got out of the car with an instrument and walked towards the tiger corpse.

The instrument was half a person's height and had a strange shape, as if it was made up of various spheres and cubes. There was also a trumpet-like object the size of a basketball in front of it.

This is an instrument that can identify curses. There are only two such instruments in the entire Donghua City. The one in Emily's hand was specially assigned to the third team by the Luban City Department, with the special instructions from Minister Clo.

Aicheng Hualian's abilities have not yet been tested in actual combat. Carrying such an instrument can also indirectly confirm how accurate Aicheng Hualian's abilities are.

"What's that... curse?"

The daughter of the tribal leader, a girl named Zhao Mengdie, walked up to Hua Lian and asked timidly, looking completely different from her previous arrogant and domineering self.

After knowing that these people in front of him were from the government organization in the city, Zhao Mengdie's request changed from asking for compensation to praying that his tribe would be given lenient treatment.

For these tribal people, the city is an insurmountable barrier.

"A curse is a way of using evil forces to exert psychic powers. It's very evil, just like the witches in fairy tales." Aicheng Hualian tried to explain in simple terms, but found that the girl was still puzzled. He immediately realized that there was no such thing as fairy tales in her childhood.

So she had to change her explanation, "In short, the tiger went crazy because of these curses."

"So this ability is only available to humans?"

"That's pretty much it."

Zhao Mengdie was suddenly confused. "But Xiao Ling'er hasn't had any contact with outsiders in the past few days. It's impossible for anyone in the tribe to harm Xiao Ling'er."

Who knows?

Emily walked over with the instrument in her hand, pointed the horn-shaped object at the tiger's body, then took out a knife and dug out a piece of flesh from the tiger's body.

Zhao Mengdie, who was standing by, shuddered all over, but didn't dare to say anything more.

Her father had once warned her that as the daughter of the chief of his Tiger Herding Tribe, she could roam freely in the wilderness, but if she offended any big shot in the city, even her father would not be able to protect her.

The tiger meat was fed into the instrument, and after a period of decomposition, the results came out five minutes later.

"There is indeed a curse." Emily nodded, and looked at Aicheng Hualian with even more admiration.

Even the precious instruments in one's hand take time to distinguish, but the lovely Cheng Hualian could see the problem at a glance. The difference between them is self-evident.

But it's not over yet.

Aicheng Hualian took two steps forward, and then, in the surprised eyes of others, placed his hand on the tiger's head.

In her view, the tiger's head was most affected by the curse, so she targeted the tiger's head and pressed directly on its forehead.

"Team member of Aicheng!" This scared Captain Donglan behind him so much that she ran towards Aicheng Hualian, the exoskeletons on her legs creaking.

Talina in the car was also startled. She opened the door and rushed out, not forgetting to glance at Kagura Hikaru.

This cold black-haired girl sat in her seat from the beginning, staring out the window motionlessly, indifferent to what was happening around her. Even when Aicheng Hualian got out of the car, she didn't move, like a sculpture.

Isn't she Hua Lian's good sister? Hua Lian has made such a dangerous move, why is this person still in a daze?

Although she was puzzled, Talina got out of the car and ran towards Aicheng Hualian.

If Hua Lian was injured by the curse, their team would have no chance of success.

As she ran closer, Talina found that Captain Donglan was standing there, staring blankly in front of her.

Following the captain's gaze, she saw Aicheng Hualian reaching out to touch the forehead of the tiger's corpse, and saw the tiger's blood flowing from the wound slowly fade from pitch black, and finally returned to a deep red color.

Even without the help of any equipment, Talina could guess what was happening.

Hualian is removing the curse?

But how is this possible? The power of curse is a branch of evil energy. To remove the curse, you need the psychic energy of the same level to offset it, and Aicheng Hualian does not have this prerequisite.

She was half right.

The curse was indeed being lifted, but Aijo Karen wasn't using psychic powers to counteract it.

On the contrary, she was fighting fire with fire, she was devouring it.

The one who is responsible for the Devouring Curse is naturally the one sitting in the car, but not entirely.

Kagura Hikaru finally reacted at this moment. She turned her eyes and looked through the front window, watching Aishiro Karen's actions.

She understood that Hua Lian was using a strange ability to devour the curse from the tiger corpse.

If those curses are like poisonous insects, then the energy that Aicheng Hualian is using is insecticidal bacteria, starting from the most basic cells, step by step to disintegrate the power of the curse.

The black and red "bacteria" devoured the cursed poisonous insects. Countless insects screamed and struggled, trying desperately to escape from the tiger's corpse, but all in vain.

When did Hua Lian learn this method?

Kagura Hikaru was confused.

She didn't remember giving Aicheng Hualian this kind of power. In other words, Hualian was now using the ability she had figured out herself.

It worked!

Aicheng Hualian watched the curse in front of her gradually fade away, and she felt happy.

That's right, the power to eliminate curses is the result of her own research, and the principle is not complicated.

It was a miraculous energy that was nurtured using the evil energy left in her body by the evil god as a seed and then nourished and cultivated with her own flesh and blood and spiritual energy.

This energy is neither evil energy nor psychic energy, but more like a mixture of the two. There is very little of it in Aicheng Hualian's body, and in terms of total amount, it is not even comparable to that of an F-level psychic.

Now Aicheng Hualian has put it into practice, and she was not disappointed. The effect was very gratifying.

It possesses both the aggressiveness of evil energy and the endless vitality of psychic energy. The curses on the tiger corpse had never encountered such a natural enemy. In just one or two minutes, these curses were completely devoured by this strange energy.

The other members of the third team were stunned by what was happening before them.

Aicheng Hualian can also remove curses? They don’t know about this ability yet!

Chapter 150: Waiting for them to come

"The curse... has been lifted."

Putting the tiger meat into the instrument again, Emily looked at the results displayed on the screen, her golden eyes widening.

Aicheng Hualian can really remove the curse!

boom!

Suddenly, a violent psychic energy surge exploded. A chilling atmosphere enveloped the entire highway like a tsunami, like an extremely cold winter wind swirling and howling through the air, blinding everyone and causing them to shiver.

Whoosh!

The entire road was covered with a layer of white frost in an instant. The dozens of people from the Hu Mu tribe were already poorly dressed, and when blown by the cold wind, their souls seemed to be frozen. Some of them immediately fell to the ground with blue faces.

The one who caused all this was Captain Donglan.

Her expression was extremely serious. She stood in front of Aicheng Hualian and looked at the group of people from the Tiger Herding Tribe around her.

"Team Three, everyone on alert!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Huo An immediately took out a submachine gun and held it in his hand, and Talina pulled out a shiny long knife and held it against her chest.

The three of them stood in front of Aicheng Hualian, protecting Hualian in the center in a triangle.

When Donglan discovered that Aicheng Hualian could actually remove the curse, she knew that things were getting serious.

If Hua Lian only had the ability to see through curses, then under the heavy protection of the Third Team and the Evil Response Department, other evil organizations such as the Chongling Cult that use spells (curse is the official derogatory term for spells) might think that targeting Aicheng Hua Lian is not worth the cost, and give Hua Lian more room to grow.

But now it’s different. What Aicheng Hualian shows is not just seeing through the curse, but purifying the curse!

The nature of the matter suddenly took a 180-degree turn.
