Chapter Seventy-Two: Spiritism
Seeing that the introduction of spiritism was so simple, Leo was naturally not satisfied, so he called up the analysis and sorting data of spiritism, and reorganized his main consciousness to deepen his understanding of spiritism.
However, after spending two hours reading the data, Leo finally came to the same conclusion as the introduction, which is to communicate with the spirit of all things.
But that didn't mean he wasted these two hours, as he had deepened his understanding of spiritism and how to use it.
At this time, a fat rat crawled out of the burrow in the corner, climbed very boldly onto the desk, crawled directly to the edge of the plate in search of the smell, and then carefully grabbed a piece of bread that had not been eaten last night and gnawed it.
Seeing that the experimental object was sent to the door by himself, Leo naturally would not be polite, and directly stimulated the psychic skills, forming a spiritual chain and putting it into the body of the mouse.
However, Leo gets a simple mental message that the bread is delicious, and the mouse collapses on the table as if dead.
Leo grabbed the mouse, checked it, and found that there was nothing wrong with the mouse's body, but its spirit or soul had been shattered under the impact of the spirit chain, and only the physical body was still alive.
This situation is somewhat similar to Leo's encounter with the Golden Deer, the Turbidity, and the Lord of Lightness, who are also small beings like rats in the face of these mysterious beings.
These mysterious beings only need to pay a little attention to him, or even if they inadvertently sweep through him, it will cause him mental damage, just like he did to this mouse.
"Isn't that a side effect?" Leo threw away the stiff rat, asked the innkeeper to pour a basin of water, washed his hands, and put the contents on the table back in his backpack while thinking about spiritism.
He thought that it would be good if the object of the spiritism was someone whose spiritual power was weaker than his, but if it was someone whose spiritual power was stronger than him, then the other party might be able to counter him through the spiritual chain, so I am afraid that this spiritual skill needs to be very careful when using it.
Packing up his things, Leo left the hotel, but instead of returning the room, he paid a five-day deposit to use the hotel as a temporary accommodation for those days.
After leaving the hotel, Leo went to the alley again, but did not see the little boy, so he stopped looking for the little boy, stopped a car, and drove towards Anne's hospital.
On the way, because there was no one else next to him, and there was no need to think about anything, Leo also had a rare leisurely appreciation of this big city with the title of world capital.
Soon he noticed a small thing that he had not noticed yesterday, that is, there were railroad tracks in the interior of Miria City, but there were no steam track trains, only horse-drawn carriages moving back and forth in the streets, so he asked the coachman in front of him why.
It turns out that more than ten years ago, when the steam rail train in the city just appeared, Miria City was the first city to lay railroad tracks in the whole city and build urban rail train routes.
However, the first city to use steam rail trains eventually chose to abandon rail trains and still use horse-drawn carriages, mainly because the geographical environment here is really not suitable for the use of steam rail trains.
The summer and autumn seasons of Miria City are good, and the steam emitted by the rail train will quickly dissipate, but in winter and spring, the humidity of Miria City itself is very high, and the steam erupts for a long time and is entrenched in the streets of the city, causing the view of pedestrians and carriages to be blocked, and many accidents occur.
During the three years of the implementation of the steam train, accidents caused by the steam of the train in the winter and spring of the city of Miria caused at least 5,000 casualties, until the ambassador of the Kingdom of Maris and his wife were knocked down and crushed by the oncoming rail train because of the steam blocking the view, and died on the spot.
An emergency meeting was held by the city authorities of Miria, and the next day they immediately ordered the city to stop all steam trains and revert to horse-drawn carriages as the main means of transportation in the city.
In this way, the carriage swayed to the Red House district while the coachman recounted the history of the changes in the railway trains in Miria City.
Leo got out of the carriage, paid five more for the coachman's due diligence, and headed straight for Anne's hospital. When he reached the door, he stopped, glanced around, and with an inexplicable smile on his face, he pushed the door and walked in.
"Grandma isn't here. Seeing Leo walk in, Adeline immediately shouted loudly, and then threw a look at Leo secretly and said, "Go to Dr. Victor for your illness! ”
Hearing Adeline's words, Leo couldn't help but laugh, although he was grateful for Adeline's kindness, but the latter sentence seemed to him to be purely superfluous. And he also wanted to tell Adeline that her acting skills were so bad that everyone in the hall noticed him, almost as if he was pointing at him and telling everyone present that this was the person you were waiting for.
I saw that at this moment, in the hall on the first floor, which was not very large, there were seven big bearded men, almost wearing uniform bib pants and woolen cedar, and the sleeves were all circled, revealing the skeleton tattoo tattooed on the arm, it was obvious that they should belong to the same gang.
When the seven people saw Leo appear, they all got up from their chairs, their hands on the various weapons on their waists, and stared at Leo with a fierce look in their eyes.
One of them stepped forward and said, "You're the octopus soldier, and my boss wants to see you." ”
Leo smiled, not giving the man a chance to react, and reached out and punched the man in the throat.
Although it was not a full force, the effect of the double blow, transmitted from the twin gloves, easily shattered the man's throat, and even the spine in the back of the neck was pierced by broken bones.
At the same time as the man fell, Leo had two more Panier battle axes in his hands, and his body rushed out like a cheetah, and he drilled between the two closest people, and the battle axe in his hand carried a cold light, which shone on the throats of the two people, and immediately spewed out two blood mist behind him.
Then the tomahawk in his hand was thrown left and right, and the sharp axe immediately flew out like lightning, and slammed into the chests of the two people who had just pulled out the knives in the distance on both sides, and the two big men weighing at least more than 200 catties flew out backwards as if they had been hit by a bull, and slammed into the wall.
At this time, the last two people in front of Leo didn't realize what was going on, and one of them was directly slashed in the neck by Leo who moved to his side, and the bones and throat organs of the entire neck were shattered, and his head fell to the ground with a slump, convulsing constantly.
The rest of them were pressed against the wall by Leo's head, and when he was about to beg for mercy, Leo had activated the psychic spell and directly punched the spirit chain into the man's brain.
A large amount of information was extracted from his brain, and he had encountered similar situations before, Leo didn't pay attention to this information at all and handed it directly to the auxiliary brain system to absorb and sort out, and he was only responsible for stabilizing the output of the spirit chain.
After only a few breaths, Leo had found what he was looking for in the man's mind, and immediately stopped his spiritism, and the big man, who had just been normal, was now drooling like a demented child, his eyes were dumb, and he sat motionless on the ground.
Seeing the big man in front of him whose spirit had been completely shattered and dissipated, Leo frowned, revealing a look of disappointment.
He felt that the reason for this result might be related to his lack of psionic control, if he could control the strength of the spiritual chain composed of psionic energy, he might be able to extract only the information in the other party's brain and spirit, and not completely crush the other party's brain spirit.
"Miss Adeline, will you dispose of corpses?" Leo, who was slightly unhappy with the effects of the spiritism, shook his head, then turned his head to the stunned Adeline.
What is the hospital, of course, the place where the sick are treated, but also the best place to dispose of corpses.
Although Anne's neighborhood hospital is a converted apartment building, the equipment inside is very good, even the morgue.
Leo carried the corpses on the ground to the morgue in the basement, twisted the neck of the last person whose spirit had been broken by spiritism, and threw it into the basement.
Afterwards, Adeline put a strip of black cloth on the sign at the door, and then ignored Leo, and went straight to the back kitchen to make herself a cup of plant drink similar to mint leaves, suppressing the shock in her heart.
After a while, the person who handled the corpses drove a carriage to the entrance of the hospital, and after entering the basement, he did not ask how the corpses died, so he wrapped the corpses in a white cloth, carried them into the car, and walked away.
"Looks like you're pretty skilled at handling corpses here. Leo watched the carriage disappear into the street, turned back, and said to Adeline with a slight troll.
"No kidding! We're in a regular hospital. Adeline suppressed the fear of Leo in her heart, yelled at him, and then said with some confidence: "Grandma will have some things to deal with, and everyone who knows the people over there is very familiar, so help each other." ”
Leo smiled, and instead of teasing any more, he asked seriously, "Do you know Rupert Fitz?"
Adeline looked at Leo with the eyes of a countryman and said, "Of course, I know that the famous philanthropist in Miria City is the owner of the Lanxi Great Factory and the permanent director of the Factory Joint Council. However, he lived in the city of Miria all the year round, and all the affairs of Lanxi were handled by his son-in-law, and several large farms on the outskirts of the city were his property, and he was also the main patron of Marseille around the city, and the president of the Miria Horse Club. By the way, he is also the second chairperson of the Miria City Council. ”
As she spoke, she rummaged through the newspapers on the newspaper shelf, flipped to the front page with a copy of the newspaper, pointed to the picture on the newspaper, and said, "That's him!"
Leo took the newspaper and looked at it, only to see that Rupert in the newspaper was completely upright, with a majestic appearance, deliberately left sideburns to make him look quite aggressive, and the meticulous way of dressing made him give people an extremely rigorous and stable temperament. If there is a standard image of a successful person, then Rupert in the newspaper is the most appropriate.
Leo put the newspaper down and suddenly asked, "What would you do if I told you that Rupert is the biggest underground gangster in Miria City?"
"I'd think you'd be crazy, not just me, but the vast majority of Miria City. Adeline gave an answer without hesitation, but asked curiously, "What you said is true?"
Leo didn't answer, pondered for a moment, and said, "Do you know where the best leather goods store in the city is?"
Coming out of the Fowler Royal Leather Goods Store in the business district, Leo's equipment has been completely renewed, with a custom-made belt and holsters already on his body, as well as bullet belts made according to his requirements, and two rows of fifty bullets are enough for Leo to use. In addition, on the thighs and lower arms, four ammunition packs that can store at least a hundred bullets are strapped.
It's just that because the size of the Paniel tomahawk is too large, Leo had to reduce the tomahawk on his body to two, and specially made two holsters to hang on the belt of the back waist, so that the tomahawk can be placed horizontally on the waist, which will not affect the movement, and it is easy to pull out, and it is also very secretive.
These leather goods are very exquisitely made, after putting on the coat, there is no trace at all, of course, the leather goods are so good, the price is naturally not cheap, a thousand gold shields is to buy the name of the royal family, and the remaining three hundred gold shields are the materials and handiwork money of leather goods.
Leo straightened his clothes, turned to Adeline, who had brought him to the leather goods store, and said, "You'd better close the hospital for the next two days, stay with Lady Anne, and then go back to the hospital after I've dealt with some people." ”
"No! I still have patients to take care of. Adeline immediately shook her head and said.
"Then hire some bodyguards!" Leo directly took out five thousand gold guilders and handed them to Adeline, saying, "This money should be able to hire some good bodyguards, it only takes two days." ”
After saying that, he raised his hand to stop a carriage, sat on it, said an address, and left, leaving Adeline, who was holding a cash check for five thousand gold guilders, at a loss, not knowing what to say.
To this day, Adeline doesn't know exactly what happened, but she knows that her grandmother hasn't come back since she left with Leo and the others yesterday. Then when the door opened early in the morning, the biggest local gang, the Skull and Bones Society, broke in, drove away all the patients, and forced her to ask Leo and the others to come down. Then Leo appeared, killed seven strong men in the blink of an eye, and now gave her five thousand gold guilders for some reason, which made her feel that something big must have happened.
So, after thinking for a while, Adeline stopped a carriage and told the coachman to go to the Velonian Medical Association.
She was going to see if she could find her grandmother in the association, if she couldn't find her, she would stay in the association for a few days, and those gangsters didn't dare to come to the association to make trouble, as for the hospital, she still followed Leo's advice and closed it temporarily, and the five thousand gold guilders went into her pocket.
