Chapter 33: The Child of Destiny
CHAPTER XXXIII
Green's world is really only the tip of the iceberg on TV. In many unit episodes, there have been many more powerful and more fantastical creatures. And Su Yuan had noticed before that the whole story of Grimm was that as time went by, those creatures on the mysterious side became stronger and stronger.
The powerful in the early stage are generally all kinds of creatures with strong physical bodies. Trolls, ogres, saber-toothed tigers, manticores and the like. However, in the middle and late stages, electric shock monsters, arsonists, memory hunters, and witch doctors began to appear more surreal Grimm creatures. There have even been lava monsters, and even pure magical side creatures such as forest elves in the late stage. And during this period, witches and wizards were basically the embodiment of power.
Those witches were casually killed by the bee monster in the first season, and basically had no power to fight back. But in the later stage, whether it is Adeline, or Juliet after transformation, or the leader of the Darkclaw, the mature wizard, all show strong and amazing magical powers. Su Yuan felt that in that situation, his current ability was basically about to capsize with one negligence.
Su Yuan believed that Green's entire world might be in a state of slow and secret aura recovery. So, those creatures on the mysterious side will become more and more powerful. This also gave Su Yuan a sense of crisis. Even though he still has a repressive power over most of the Grimm creatures. But in the later stage, it may not be possible.
Especially after one of the final bosses, Darkclaw, surfaced. These aren't the gangsters. They have all kinds of conspiracies and plots, and the suppression of various political forces is very six. Su Yuan was alone, and he couldn't fight against them at all. The sniper of that special Golden Eagle race can kill himself in one shot from a distance of a kilometer. This is not the wasteland of the Dark Tower, and he can't kill with impunity. Therefore, if you want to improve yourself, you need to do some operations in a very targeted manner.
The first target Su Yuan chose was the arsonist monster that would only appear in the later stage.
First of all, this guy was mentioned in the original book and has been active for many years. So it has definitely emerged now. Again, the arsonist was basically the embodiment of the devil in the era of cold weapons, an invincible existence. One of Nick's family records saw an ancestor die at their hands.
But in the current era of this kind of thermal weapon, Su Yuan, as a quasi-gunman, basically has no pressure in the face of this creature. Of course, there is another point, this guy has been setting fire for more than ten years, causing an unknown number of lives and property losses. Su Yuan hunted him without the slightest psychological barrier.
Su Yuan is not good at investigating this kind of thing. The best option is to call Sheriff Renard. Judging by the other party's resources, finding the arsonist is a breeze. But this creates a huge hidden danger.
After Su Yuan hunted the other party, he would inevitably give priority to strengthening his flame ability. And once this ability is used, it will be noticed by Renard, thus exposing his hole cards that can absorb the abilities of others. So Su Yuan still decided to check by himself first, and at most ask Nick for help.
Based on the time span of the arsonist crime, he wasn't necessarily in Portland. So Su Yuan collected all the fire news in the United States in the past five years. This is undoubtedly a very large piece of material. Even if the confirmed incidents are removed, there are more than 120 unidentified fire incidents.
It's important that the Pyromania isn't an arsonist. According to the plot of the original book, you know that this guy is a professional arsonist, the kind who collects money to do things. Relying on his own ability, he can easily carry out arson without any arson materials. So the police could barely track him down. This is also what he has relied on for many years.
Based on this, Su Yuan took out those ordinary cases of house fires. Instead, the focus is on factories, companies, shopping malls, and other cases of commercial value. In this way, the number of cases was narrowed down to about twenty.
Su Yuan judged that among these 20 cases, there should be a case of the arsonist he was looking for. So please Nick, copy some police information from the police station that has information about these cases.
"What do you want this for? These cases have been around for some time, and all of them are unsolved arson cases. Are you interested in this? ”
"No, I'm just tracking a special Grimm creature. You don't need to worry about this, I know you need to focus on enough things, don't you? ”
"Yes, there have been multiple murders recently. The victims were all killed by a large amount of bee venom. In the case of normal birth, it is impossible to have so many bee venoms. There is no such equipment in the whole of Portland. I'm almost certain it's a feud between a bee monster and a witch. However, this reason cannot be reported. ”
"Behweed, I've heard of this creature. They are rumored to be the nemesis of witches. But I must tell you that this claim is pure nonsense. The vast majority of bee monsters are impossible to fight against witches. But there is one exception. ”
"You mean the queen bee? But no one has ever actually seen queen bees, they are just legends. "Nick obviously did some work as well.
"Hehe, werewolf, Grimm, bee monster, witch which one is not a legend. The queen bee is just a special kind of Grimm creature. The difference is that bees can only attract bees and give some simple instructions. But the queen bee can command the peaks. This is a terrifying ability, and given it a little time to assemble, she can easily summon a million poisonous bees during this season. That kind of power is enough to sweep the Portland Police Department. ”
"Wow, Sue. You say that which worries me even more. ”
"Do you think I'm comforting you? Nick. ”
"...... okay. I'll take notice. ”
Nick put down his materials and turned to leave. But it was Su Yuan who stopped him.
"Nick, there's one thing I still have to warn you about. Although there are also some quirky legends. However, in these legends, the queen bee is on Grimm's side. They are one of the very few dark creatures that Grimm will not hunt. It is said that every appearance of the queen bee heralds the beginning of a revolution in the dark world. The queen bee appeared to warn the child of fate. ”
"You mean I'm a child of destiny? No kidding, I'm just a cop plus a rookie Green. Besides, I don't believe in those Shinto prophecies? ”
"Nick, you're not just an ordinary cop Gaglin. You are also the last heir of the Green family, which has been passed down for hundreds of years. In novels and movies, you're the standard Destiny Child template. ”
Nick: "......"
