Chapter Twenty-Six: The Source of the Curse
The war game completely collapsed.
Mass demons and blood-purifiers were slaughtered.
When Heavenly Court's reinforcements arrived at the scene, the culprit suddenly disappeared......
Even if none of the news media in Asgard City dared to mention this matter, the ensuing large-scale martial law and search still spread the news of Yan Jing's successful escape throughout the major urban areas.
In order to save the lost face, the Heavenly Court Demon Army and the Blood Purifier Army have both undergone large-scale transfers, and the Gray Mist District is the first to bear the brunt, especially the Gray Mist District 3, where Yan Jing used to open the martial arts hall, is even more martial law in the whole city!
The tension of high pressure permeates all corners of the city.
Police cars drove through the streets outside the Bluebell Tavern, and the buzzing of drones hovering in the sky was particularly piercing, and the homeless people who had been roaming the streets had disappeared since this morning.
No one wants to experience the torture methods of the Grey Mist District Police Department.
Two fingers pulled down the blinds installed in the window on one side of the tavern, Zheng Qin looked left and right, saw the patrol leaving, looked down at his watch, the time was almost noon.
"At present, the entire gray fog area is full of search troops, and it may not be so easy for him to get close."
The old waiter, who was cleaning the floor of the tavern, put the chair in his hand upside down on the table, looked at Zheng Qin, who was obviously a little anxious, and said,
"In fact, no news is the best news now, and as long as the street patrols are still going on, it proves that they haven't caught anyone yet!"
"A patrol of this magnitude would put a lot of pressure on the people in the Grey Mist Zone, and I fear that they will target ordinary people."
Letting go of the blinds, Zheng Qin leaned on the windowsill, as if thinking of something, his brows tightened,
"Yan Jing's behavior is certainly uplifting, but most of the human beings are only weak after all, we have lost the protection of the Kiss, and the only remaining strength may not be able to compete with the Blood Purifier and the demons."
Last night's killing, whether it was the people living in the middle gathering area of Asgard City or the gray fog area, it would be false to say that they were not excited.
The problem is that after the excitement, they still have to face the harsh reality.
The monopoly of the news media, from high-level force to the suppression of low-level violent institutions, Heavenly Court's decades of operation in Asgard City have almost destroyed the forces that resist them in the city, and even the soil on which these forces survive.
"No, it's not like we're without means, and the power you have is meant to be used against demons and those void weirdness, isn't it?"
The old waiter offered a different opinion.
"Now that the entire Gray Fog Zone is full of dependents like us, it is no more than two hands, and the strength of the Cockroach Kiss has been weakened so far, and the combat strength that we can gather at present is stretched, and it is extremely difficult to launch a small-scale armed struggle......
Thinking about his own combat power level, Zheng Qin couldn't help but feel a little gloomy.
"Isn't there an opportunity to regain the power of the Kiss Kiss?"
The old waiter was about to say something more, his eyes suddenly fell on the tall figure flashing outside the shutter, and he suddenly stopped talking, looked at Zheng Qin with a serious expression, and made a gesture.
Knock knock~
There was a knock on the closed tavern door.
Zheng Qin, who was still thinking a second ago, suddenly pressed down the shutters sideways, and when he saw the heavily armed wolf demon standing at the door of the tavern, he couldn't help but tighten his brows, put the gun on his waist with his right hand, and said while walking to the door,
"I'm sorry, it's not business hours yet, let's go look elsewhere."
Knock knock!
The wolf demon in front of the door obviously had no intention of leaving, and the force of knocking on the door kept increasing.
Zheng Qin snorted, looked back at the old waiter, and saw that he had already walked behind the counter, so he opened the gun safe, covered it with his clothes, and stepped forward to open the door of the tavern.
The wolf demon, who was more than two meters tall, stood at the door, looked down at Zheng Qin, and without waiting for her to speak, he stepped straight into the door.
Zheng Qin, who was standing next to the door, glanced at the street, confirmed that there were no demons who came with him, a touch of killing intent flashed in his eyes, and he turned around and wanted to gesture to the old waiter, so that he was ready to solve the trouble.
I didn't think about it, I just turned my head, and I saw the gloomy wolf demon shrinking, and said,
"It's hard to find your place, it's not marked on the map, get something to eat, do you have noodles?"
The tone of voice returned to normal from the unique hoarseness of the demon, and became familiar to Zheng Qin, and in the change of light and shadow, the demon in front of him had already transformed into a familiar figure, and the equipment on his body had not changed, but there was an extra mask in his hand that looked particularly strange.
Facing the pursuit of the demons last night, Yan Jing's choice was very simple, first temporarily out of their sight, and then use the spirit mask to directly turn into a demon, without any extra disguise at all.
The payment is nothing more than Joshua, the most useless of the three souls in the mask, the possessor of the snake bone ability.
When this mission is over, the Spirit Mask will naturally be able to find a better soul.
"You, this ...... How? ”
Seeing that Yan Jing, who had been waiting for a morning, appeared in front of him like this, Zheng Qin hurriedly closed the door of the tavern, looked at the orange cat that jumped in through the crack in the door, and couldn't help but ask.
"It's very simple, the props given to me by the one I believe in, why, didn't the kiss give it to you?"
Yan Jing turned around and asked in surprise.
The existence of the torch was not suitable for revealing to the natives of another world, this was an excuse that Yan Jing had already thought of on the way here.
Moreover, to a certain extent, it is also a fact, without the help of Tiger Jiao's relics, he would not have been able to get to where he is today.
"Ahem, of course there is, but there are no such strange props."
Scratching his chin in embarrassment, Zheng Qin prevaricated casually, and the old waiter behind the counter had already turned around and walked into the kitchen of the tavern at this time.
It didn't take long for a steaming bowl of noodle soup to be served in front of Yan Jing.
Tucking the poached eggs into the noodle soup, Yan Jing casually opened a bottle of liquor to moisten his throat first, and looked at the old waiter standing next to him.
"This family member who is just like me is a kiss, Zhou Linwen, is also my teacher."
Zheng Qin took the initiative to introduce.
"The noodles are good, the color and flavor are complete."
After thanking him first, Yan Jing took out his mobile phone from his pocket and continued,
"I've come to you for a simple purpose, Kiss has given me a mission, and it wants me to change the status quo of the city...... War games are just the beginning, and I need your help in the future. ”
"Understand, we all watched last night's battle, and you can take refuge from us for the time being."
"Shelter?"
Yan Jing raised his eyebrows, and then said,
"I don't plan to hide, now is the best time, a considerable part of the armed forces of Heavenly Court and Immortal Palace City have been deployed to the Gray Mist Region to arrest me, and the defense forces of other regions will inevitably be reduced at this time."
"What are you going to do next?"
Hearing that Yan Jing's words had no hidden meaning at all, Zheng Qin pursed his lips and asked.
"There's a lot I want to do, but it's up to you to do what you do first...... Do you know the person in this photo? ”
So far, the three main missions have not been completed, but Yan Jing has already learned a lot of clues with a war game last night, and at the same time, he has also clarified his path to complete the additional tasks, and then it is time to really start the action around the mission.
The information that Zheng Qin has in front of him is undoubtedly the key to the next stage.
"Photos?"
Zheng Qin picked up his mobile phone, his face changed suddenly the moment his eyes fell on the screen, and he suddenly got up and asked,
"How did you have a picture of him, where did you get it, he ...... How is he doing now? ”
"This is the demon I photographed in the war game yesterday, he was in the body of the demon at the time, I think he looks a little like you, so I took a special photo."
Yan Jing had a guess when he saw the appearance of the demon body, and now Zheng Qin's reaction when he saw the photo verified his thoughts, paused, and when Zheng Qin's mood stabilized, Yan Jing then asked,
"He mentioned the holy relics before he died, saying that the demons are grabbing the power in them, and they must be stopped as soon as possible, now judging by your reaction, you should recognize him, can you tell me about him?"
"His name is Zheng Zeshi, my father, the former leader of the revolutionary army, was besieged by demons five years ago, I thought he was dead at that time, I didn't expect to become like this...... Those bastards!"
Slamming his fist on the table, Zheng Qin's eyes were red, and he gritted his teeth and said.
"Demons, holy relics, what are they?"
Seeing that Zheng Qin was emotional, Yan Jing didn't mean to force her to stabilize, handed the liquor in his hand to the other party, and turned to look at Zhou Linwen, who was silent, but a breathtaking momentum emerged from his body.
Stroking Hu Ying's forehead, Yan Jing looked at the old man in front of him who already had a lot of furrows on his face.
Zheng Qin's organization seemed to be stronger than he imagined.
"We don't have much contact with demons, we only know that they are killing machines created by demons a few years ago specifically to hunt and kill the revolutionary army, and each demon has been corrupted by the void ability and has extremely terrifying powers...... We haven't hunted demons, but we didn't expect them to be ...... in their bodies Human beings as ontologies. ”
Patting Zheng Qin's trembling back, Zhou Linwen's eyes were bloodshot, his face was still calm, and he said in a deep voice.
"Since it was made, there should always be a place, do you have a clue here?"
Yan Jing lowered his head and instigated, and then said,
"I'm going to find out about the demons and destroy the lab that made them, but I really don't know much about the situation in Asgard City."
Noticing the revolutionary army mentioned in Zheng Qin's words, Yan Jing knew what the organization of these two people in front of him was, since they had fought with Heavenly Court, he wanted to know a lot of secrets.
"The red-capped monkey's laboratory, all demons and ghosts only have this one source, it is responsible for all scientific research projects in Heavenly Court, involving the Void ability, only its core laboratory can support this kind of special project!"
Zhou Linwen gave the answer without thinking,
"It's not just demons, there must also be the holy relic guarded by the red-capped monkey in this laboratory!"
"Red-capped monkeys?"
Realizing that the two main characters, the Demon Curse and the Holy Relic, might be able to be completed at one time, Yan Jing immediately became interested and asked.
