Chapter 7: Demons and Alchemists
After a period of research, Tang Ping found that this memory was polluted by a force, so it could not be viewed.
"This hidden memory should be the key process of her transformation from a human to an evil demon, and I can't help but watch it!"
Tang Ping tested it with Harmonic Energy, and found that the power that polluted the memory was chaotic and evil, and the Harmony Energy was of opposite nature, and the two could neutralize and cancel each other, but this process would take a certain amount of time.
So Tang Ping left some harmonic energy in this group of memories, allowing the two energies to be slowly neutralized, and then skipped this memory and continued to look down.
After the fog passed, Dr. Xiao was already an evil demon.
After the failure to maintain human nature, Dr. Xiao followed his nature, relied on the convenience of his position, collected patient information, and selected some patients who no one cared about even if they disappeared, and so far seven patients have been devoured by her and destroyed their bodies.
Tang Ping is not a pervert, he didn't look at the details of the attack, he mainly cares about information that ordinary people can't understand.
As the old Tang Ping remembered, in the shadows of the city, lurked deformed monsters in human skin, and their names were [Demons].
The demons who were originally human beings naturally thirsted for something in humans, just like the ancient eunuchs thirsted for what they had lost.
It could be flesh, guts, bones, some emotion, or something that the demons call 'spirits'.
When the demons lose their humanity, the thirst for 'spiritual things' will become the need for survival, and only by continuing to harvest the spiritual things can the demons gain satisfaction and sufficient strength.
Physician Xiao's parasitic thing is the eyes, Tang He's parasitic thing may be hair, and as for Wangcai...... Maybe it's dog food.
In addition to demons, there are also special groups of humans with special powers, the most common of which is [Alchemists].
Alchemists carve 'refining arrays' on their bodies to refine and absorb certain creatures, objects, and even concepts and knowledge, so as to gain power.
Doctor Xiao had not been an evil demon for a long time, and there was only one alchemist who had really crossed paths with her, and that was a gray-haired middle-aged man who had been trying to hunt her.
It is said that the thing that this middle-aged man has refined is - demons!
Browsing through his memories for a long time made Tang Ping dizzy, he paused for a moment and asked the maid Xiao Rong to make a cup of Red Mountain Jade Coffee before continuing to rummage through useful information.
After a quick glance, Tang Ping found some useful content.
In addition to demons and alchemists, there are other supernatural creatures, such as forbidden mages, aliens, shadows, etc., but she has only heard a few rumors about these things, but she has not yet grasped the exact information.
What made Tang Ping most vigilant was that the upper echelons of the human race were not ignorant of these freaks.
In order to deal with the threat from the darkness and control the alchemists with superhuman abilities, they created a special organization called the 'Civil Comprehensive Bureau'.
The full name is 'Hongshan Imperial Folklore, Culture, and Belief Comprehensive Administration.' ’
The Civil Comprehensive Bureau has made a hierarchy for the demons.
They are conventional, accidental, hazardous...... Among them, there seems to be a further division of low risk and high risk.
It is worth mentioning that the level of the demon does not exactly correspond to the strength of the demon, but is determined by the degree of trouble of the demon, the desire to destroy, and the potential danger.
A few vigilantes, demons that can be subdued with ordinary firearms and even watermelon knives are at the regular level.
Demons that require one or more well-trained tactical teams to deal with are accident levels.
According to this standard, Doctor Xiao should be the stronger group of regular-level demons, and Tang Ping, who has two new abilities, can be regarded as the lowest category in the accident level.
As for Tang He's level, Tang Ping had no way to judge.
These various pieces of information made Tang Ping put away his contempt for this world.
He has a terrifying amount of harmonic energy in him, but it doesn't help him in battle.
Although the innate divine power sounds majestic, it can't even resist bullets in the flesh, let alone deal with monsters that can ignore guns.
Tang Ping leaned back, looking at the golden crystal chandelier on the ceiling, his eyes narrowed.
"In this way, if you want to really settle down in this world, you can't just have money and strength, you must improve your strength!"
"And if you want to improve your strength, in the long run, the most important thing that must be done for a long time is to find demons, consume harmonic energy and seize their abilities!"
"But in the short term, the most immediate way should be to pick up the old Tang Ping practice for several years...... Tang traditional martial arts! ”
……
Unlike Wenlu District, which has a neat and prosperous cityscape, Wuye District, located in the eastern district of Muyuan City, is at least a miasma of smoke, not to mention the withering of people's livelihood.
Towering factories spew smoke, roads are littered with black-and-gray soot, dilapidated buildings are covered with all sorts of small advertisements, and listless people lazily walk through the streets.
In a rented house with only one advantage, a middle-aged man with gray hair is eating instant noodles soaked in an iron basin while watching the news.
Opposite the man lay a deformed figure, its body trembling slightly, its head bowed, waiting for the man's instructions.
After eating instant noodles and drinking the noodle soup, the man wiped his nose, pointed to the small mirror on the table in front of him and said, "This thing smells of that person, you go find him and tell me where he is." ”
The monster straightened up, carefully picked up the mirror, opened the window and climbed out.
After the monster left, the man lit a cigarette and pulled a picture out of his wallet, rubbing his calloused fingers over it.
"There's only one pair of eyes left, and I'm not going to fail."
……
"Open the door, let me out!"
In the abandoned villa, the chubby girl knocked anxiously on the door, and she appeared in the villa after waking up, unable to escape from it despite all means.
Heavy gasps came from behind her, and she turned stiffly, but she couldn't see anything but darkness.
The trapper slowed down, the soft pads of flesh on the ground without making a sound, the pathetic prey unaware that his life was coming to an end.
When the predator was close enough, it flashed its sharp claws and swooped forward, piercing the girl's body in the blink of an eye, and grabbing a dazzling spark through the iron door behind it.
The air was quiet for two seconds.
Then in the courtyard of the villa, two different screams were heard.
"Ahh What kind of monster is this, and why can't I see it! ”
"Ahh What kind of monster is this, why can't I hit her! ”
