Chapter Eighty-Five: The Sound of a Heartbeat
The work assigned by the captain has been completed, and there is something else to be gained.
Moreover, the money was also returned.
This made Wei Wei feel that he was going well today, and found a place where no one was, so he pulled out the corks of this string of glass bottles, and let the white spirit trapped inside fly out, and then picked up the last bottle and returned to the market.
These ghosts will quickly dissipate and give a dead person the tranquility they deserve.
What he left behind was indeed what he was going to use to test his new abilities, it was a bottle that was nearly twice as large as other glass bottles, and the shadows that wandered inside were not as white as the other shadows, but gray and black.
It seems to be very irritable, and the wind rushes in the glass bottle, and a fierce face is condensed at all times.
"Good stuff......"
Wei Wei sighed with emotion: "I didn't have a dozen lives on my body before I was born, and I definitely couldn't raise this kind of ferocious ......."
Ghosts also have a quality.
Ordinary people with weak personalities, even if they become ghosts after death due to various factors, will quickly dissipate, and become sluggish and dead, lacking spirituality and aggression. But some people who were arrogant and fierce in their lifetime, after becoming ghosts, will also be more condensed than others, with extremely aggressiveness, and without processing, they also have the ability to exist independently for a long time.
And better, of course, is myself.
During a certain test in the training camp, he said that if he became a ghost, the quality must be superb.
But Wei Wei did not become proud because of this.
It's just a back road, and it's not easy to walk on the road of scarlet one day, and you can also go to the ghost industry to break through.
……
……
Before the captain came out, he first found a barbecue stall, asked for a handful, and first leaned next to his nose and sniffed:
"Well, it's not human flesh......"
I was relieved and began to enjoy it in a big bite.
Holding the glass bottle he had selected in his hand, he ate and observed it.
Normal people get this kind of "ghost", they can't have special feelings, they can't touch it, they can't even see anything in the glass bottle, they will only hold the glass bottle in their hands, they will produce a cold touch, and they will subconsciously give birth to a feeling of pessimism, sadness, and despair, but now Wei Wei holds the glass bottle, but he has a subtle impulse.
I could clearly see the ghost in the glass bottle rampaging through the bottle.
I even have an intuition that I can touch it directly.
This is the change you made to yourself after being promoted to the third stage of the Crimson system?
crossed over.
In the past, he could also deal with something similar to a ghost, such as some power of the death system, but he could only rely on bullets or energy hedging to cause the annihilation of the other party, but this kind of touch, or even deeper, has never been ......
It's a little weird......
After being promoted to the third stage of Scarlet, it stands to reason that the only new ability to "touch the heart" is newly obtained.
But now I have two desires.
One is similar to the ghost in front of you, and you have an intuitive sense of control over it.
This should be a change in ability.
But the other is the expectation and desire in the report of the artwork.
This may indicate that there is a strong development space for this new ability?
What the demonic power brings to him is only a surreal ability, but how to develop this ability often has a lot to do with the transcendent itself, and Wei Wei's disadvantage is that because of the lack of reference, many things need to be studied by himself.
But his advantage is that even the instructors praise him, and he has a high pioneering spirit in the use of abilities.
"A normal mind would never have thought of these ......"
The instructor said very seriously at the time, and gave himself a high evaluation in this regard.
……
……
Now that the ghost is in hand, you can help yourself complete the test well.
The artwork has already been released, and I don't know what kind of changes it will cause.
Wei Wei said in his heart that no expectation was fake.
However, you should put your work first, and when you go back, you can slowly study new abilities.
Thinking so, he put away the ghost bottle first, then took out the Book of Origins and slowly flipped through it.
This A4 paper bound with the Demon of Life "Bible" is thicker than expected, and it is densely packed with all kinds of praise for the goddess of life, and all kinds of gifts that will be obtained after believing in the goddess of life......
…… To put it simply, it is the change that occurs after being polluted.
In addition, a large number of strict procedures and ritual standards for the worship of the goddess of life have been recorded.
Of course, even so, this "Book of Origins" is still incomplete.
The boss is a profiteer.
It's a pity that I can't go back to him now.
I don't know how many fanatical believers have devoted their lives to compiling the praise of the goddess of life, the study and use of life forces, the study of various degenerate creatures in the life system and the different methods of sacrifice between totems, and even the invention of a new sacrificial ritual that can trigger the response of the "goddess of life" or "superior totem" as the biggest goal in their lives.
If it were to be complete, it would probably take a thick handful of books, not one.
Of course, the good thing is that the Book of Origins records some ancient and basic sacrifices.
And such sacrifices often represent the most powerful and reliable.
Wei Wei held the most basic contempt for life demons of the graduates from the training camp, and turned over the praise words that those gods would definitely blush if they really existed, and soon found the part about sacrifice, and sifted it out little by little.
"Alas......"
Just as Wei Wei's heart was moving slightly, he heard a sigh next to him.
I saw that Captain Ouyang's clothes were loose, and there was a burst of sweat on his forehead, squeezing out of the crowd.
Comfortably, he picked up the cigarette beside Wei Wei and lit one, and sighed: "The Book of Origin was bought?" ”
"Got it."
Wei Wei immediately closed the Book of Origin, looked at Captain Ouyang in surprise, and said, "Why did the captain come out so quickly?" ”
"What's fast?"
Captain Ouyang was smoking, and glanced at Wei Wei: "I'm a little worried about you, I'm afraid that you will slip around in this chaotic trading place, and I don't know what trouble you will cause, so I hurried out to see if you were good......"
“……”
"Okay......"
Wei Wei had no choice but to accept this explanation, and he muttered in his heart.
What does the captain think of himself?
Are you the kind of person who gets into a lot of trouble just after being separated from the leader for a while?
At this moment, suddenly a commotion sounded in the distance.
I saw that the crowd was squeezed away, and three or five strong men with bullets wrapped in their bodies walked over the street angrily with a few thin monkeys carrying machetes or holding homemade trolls, and vaguely heard someone shouting: "Hurry up, it seems that someone has died......
"The old grandson who sells injections doesn't know who killed him......"
“……”
A group of people swept around the street with fierce eyes, as if they wanted to find the murderer, and swarmed away.
Wei Wei and Captain Ouyang were beside them, honestly watching the excitement.
After a long while, Captain Ouyang turned his head and glanced at Wei Wei with a strange look in his eyes: "You didn't cause anything, did you?" ”
"No......"
Wei Wei said: "What can I cause in such a short period of time?" ”
Captain Ouyang's eyes narrowed, and he said, "Don't say anything short or fast today." ”
As he spoke, he glanced at the group of strong men with guns who were rampaging on the trading floor, with a solemn and serious face, and sighed:
"However, seeing them, my other concern was confirmed."
“……”
Wei Wei glanced at Captain Ouyang with some puzzlement, only to see his eyes narrowed slightly, and said in a low voice: "This demon trading ground was previously established under the protection of the Seventh Order of the Wandering Church outside the city, and it is also their people who are responsible for maintaining order. ”
"So if there is a dispute or dispute, the people in these trading halls will immediately go to the people of the Order to resolve it."
"But now, when someone dies, it's just a swarm of headless flies with guns......"
"So, my speculation came true, and the Seventh Clergy disappeared."
“……”
"The Seventh Clergy is ......"
Wei Wei vaguely guessed, but he wasn't sure yet.
"The Seventh Priesthood of the Wandering Church, and the Seventh Armed Force of the Wandering Church."
Captain Ouyang said in a low voice, "They appeared around the Scrap Iron City three years ago and haven't left. And there has been no order from above for us to expel them...... Of course, we don't have the skills to do it ourselves...... In fact, since three years ago, there have been many forces of unknown origin in the scrap iron city. But no matter what, this Seventh Order is the biggest threat to Scrap Iron City. ”
After a pause, he said softly, "The last battle nun was sent in by them. ”
"You're familiar with it, and you've sent him twenty-one bullets."
“……”
“…… It's all our instructor's fault, otherwise I would have told the captain about it a long time ago. ”
Wei Wei hurriedly explained, diverting the topic: "The captain came over to observe whether they were still there?" ”
"Yes."
Captain Ouyang nodded and said, "We now have three tasks:"
"One is to determine the nature of the other party's sacrifice and determine the purpose of the other party, and this is the reason for buying the Book of Origin."
"The second is to see if there is any change in this wandering order outside the city, and judge their threat to the scrap iron city."
Said and sighed: "Actually, I originally thought that if you walked around the market by yourself, you would cause some trouble, so as to observe the reaction of the Seventh Priesthood, but I didn't expect you to be quite decent, but from the current observation, my worries have also been confirmed." ”
"The men of the Seventh Clergy are gone, and who knows what they are planning again......"
“……”
The captain actually had this idea.
It seems that he really doesn't understand himself and underestimates his ability to handle trouble.
"Captain, what is the third mission?"
“……”
"Find other life, sacrifice to the outer hunters."
Captain Ouyang said: "Only by finding them can we confirm that there are indeed other sacrificial points, and can we write a report that is enough to move the above and directly send them to support, but unfortunately, this is the most difficult point, that report is released, it will indeed deter them, but it will also make those hunters more careful, it is not easy to catch their horses." ”
Wei Wei's heart suddenly moved: "That Feifei ......"
"Feifei is unreliable, sometimes it will help a lot, sometimes it will only help ......"
Captain Ouyang shook his head: "The precise control and extensive influence of demonic power has always been the most difficult problem to reconcile, in our team, the abilities of Uncle Gun and Xiaolin are the types that can be accurately controlled, and the abilities of Lucky and Feifei are mysterious but uncontrollable, maybe only piglets...... Alas, don't count on her for anything anyway, she's just an unlucky bastard......"
"Xiao Wei, you have to remember, we are all just people who have gained demonic powers, not gods."
"So our ability is destined to be limited, so why ...... work?"
“…… Take it easy! ”
“……”
Wei Wei resisted the urge to give Captain Ouyang a slap.
But what Captain Ouyang said is right, everyone is not a god, who can find out the people hidden in the dark......
At this moment, he suddenly felt a slight excitement in his heart, and suddenly looked up at a place.
"What's wrong?"
Captain Ouyang noticed his abnormality and asked in a low voice.
For a while, Wei Wei couldn't answer.
It was also the first time he had such strange feelings.
In my ears, I vaguely heard the sound of my heart beating.
The sound is unreal, but it is unusually strong, and it has a particularly obvious sense of direction.
It was as if not far away, something was attracting you strongly.
"Captain......
He looked a little confused: "I think maybe I can find those hunters......"
"What?"
"I ......"
Wei Wei seemed a little unsure: "I heard theirs, the heartbeat ......"
