Ye Xiao and the others changed into the equipment distributed by the Investigation Bureau, and went downstairs to join Yu Zhao and Zou Li.

"Investigation Bureau Thirteenth Squad, let's go."

Under Zou Li's order, everyone got into a seven-seater jeep with very tough lines.

The body is pitch black, and it is a vehicle specially equipped by the Investigation Bureau for each team, with very good defense and strong horsepower.

Ignition.

Airplanes!

The roar of the engine is exciting!

……

Soon, the group came to the place where the incident took place.

It was a high-rise apartment, and the security bureau had set up a cordon here to keep the onlookers out of the cordon.

Zou Li and his party got out of the car, walked through the human wall, and came to the cordon.

A sheriff has been waiting for a long time smoking a cigarette.

"You're finally here." He took a sharp drag on the cigarette in his hand, then threw it on the ground and stomped it out.

"What's the situation?" Zou Li crossed the cordon and asked.

On the inside of the cordon, he noticed a large amount of blood on the ground, as well as some remaining debris...... It should be the part of the human body that has been separated by the impact.

"Talk as you go."

Subsequently, he took Zou Li and his party into the apartment.

……

"When we got the report, we came here to deal with it. I thought it was an ordinary suicide by falling, but the testimony of the onlookers made us feel abnormal. ”

Entering the elevator, the sheriff pressed the button on the highest floor and shared known information.

Many onlookers heard weird laughter during the man's fall from the building, which was very clear and certain. And one of the residents of the apartment at the time, she witnessed the man's face as he fell past the window, and when she answered us, the woman's expression was extremely panicked. ”

I don't know if she's lucky or unlucky.

"What did she see?" Zou Li asked.

"After being reassured, she told us that it was a smile, a crazy smile of great pride and satisfaction, and she tried to imitate it, and to tell the truth, the hairs on my body stood up at that moment!"

Smiles, laughter.

This is definitely not the expression and demeanor that a person who has fallen from a building should have.

Ding dong.

The elevator slowed down and came to a still, and the group reached the top floor of the apartment, where there were no residents, but a door to the roof.

The sheriff continued, "Next, we went to the place where the man had jumped, which is here, on the roof of this building. ”

He gripped the doorknob and could see its body trembling uncontrollably.

"When we opened this door and saw what was inside...... I contacted you right away. ”

Then he pushed open the door to the roof.

Moment!

A strong smell of blood came to your face!

What appeared in front of everyone's eyes was a huge ceremony scene!

The six-pointed star array drawn in blood is covered with various occult symbols of unknown significance.

Chilling were the six stars of the six-pointed star, where the bodies of three men existed in a very strange posture.

With his arms bent to the ground, his hands clutched the bleeding skull, and the rest of his torso was placed in a kneeling position in opposite corners, as if praying to his own head.

Six star horns, three corpses.

Without exception, everyone's hearts were shocked!

Even Zou Li and Lao Mo, who are accustomed to seeing all kinds of scenes, are showing discomfort at the moment. Holding his breath, the strong smell of blood still poured into his nasal cavity.

Li Tong couldn't help it at first, and ran to the side to vomit after showing embarrassment.

Zheng Ming frowned, not knowing what he was thinking.

Ye Xiao was the calmest, she came to the nearest corpse, squatted down, and observed carefully.

After a few seconds, she spoke: "The cut is very flat, and the tools used by the murderer are very sharp. The time of death was probably between 5 p.m. yesterday and 4 a.m. the next morning. ”

Ye Xiao came to the second corpse and observed for a while, and then came to the third corpse.

She finally concluded, "The time of death of the three is basically the same, between 5 p.m. yesterday and 4 a.m. the next morning, and the murder weapon and the dismemberment tool are the same." It can almost be concluded that all three men were killed together. ”

Zou Li looked at the sheriff, "I'll leave it to you to investigate the identities of these three people." ”

The sheriff nodded.

At this time, Zheng Ming lifted his glasses and said, "So, does the person who fell from the building have anything to do with this ceremony?" Is he the murderer, or is he part of the ritual? ”

To understand this question, it is necessary to know what exactly the bloody ritual in front of us is used for.

"There is a lecture on rituals in the curriculum at the Peruer Academy, and generally speaking, there are three kinds of rituals that require sacrifices." Zheng Ming talks about what he learned at the academy.

"First, the ritual of purification. For some Awakened who are on the verge of getting out of control, they can make themselves lower the erosion of the Void Elemental by sacrificing their own flesh and blood. However, after the invention of the immune, the purification ritual was almost unused. ”

Obviously, this is not the kind of ritual in front of you.

"The second, the ritual of please. Through sacrifice, a connection is made with the pleased. It originated from those secret blood families, and was used to communicate with ancient mysterious creatures and enhance their own secret blood concentration. Now, it's used by the heretics to please high-level Void Monsters in exchange for Awakening, or Amplification of Abilities. ”

The Bureau of Investigation's method of awakening is also derived from the ritual of pleasing people, but no sacrifice is required.

At this point, he paused, then continued with a frown:

"The third is the most dangerous ritual, the Advent Ritual. Constructed by the pagan Eisen Welwater, it has only one function, allowing the Void Monsters to invade the real world without the help of those who are seriously out of control! ”

The higher the danger level, the longer the Void will need to be attached to the severely out of control, and the easier it will be to be detected and contained by the Investigation Bureau.

The use of Advent rituals avoids this problem.

Although the higher the danger level, the more ritual sacrifices required, the more cumbersome it has, but in comparison, the time spent is much less, and the more concealment it is.

This is also the most dangerous place for the infidels, they are not terrible in themselves, but they are terrible because they can make the Void Monsters stealthily and quickly invade the real world.

The consequences of the invasion of the Void Monster need not be repeated, even if a D-class Void Monster like D-3 gets out of control, the damage it will cause to Linjiang City is immeasurable.

After listening to Zheng Ming's words, everyone was silent.

If it is the second type of pleasing ritual, then it will cause much less harm than the third.

But it doesn't make sense logically!

Zou Li said solemnly: "The purpose of the pleasing ritual is to gain power with the help of virtual monsters. But now, the initiator of the ritual has fallen to his death, and the ritual has lost its meaning. So, as it stands...... The third type of Advent ritual has the highest probability. ”

At this moment, his mind is full of the apocalyptic scene he saw yesterday!

Zou Li exhaled slowly, trying to stabilize his mind.

The others were sad, too.

If you really let a high-level Void Monster invade Linjiang, then the damage caused will be extremely huge.

Just when Zou Li was about to issue an order, close the team, and report the matter to the Investigation Bureau.

On the side, Yu Zhao, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke:

"Perhaps...... The person who fell from the building was not the one who started the ritual. ”
