It was only a brief loss of consciousness for the two investigators that it was too late to stop the people who were about to flee the alley.

However, the two investigators were bewitched by the unknown force,

Jing Chen, who blended into the shadows next to him, was not affected.

Jing Chen looked at the person who was trying to escape from the alley, and followed by the power of flesh and blood.

Just as the person was about to leave the alley, in an instant, the two legs and feet below the thighs of the person suddenly became shriveled.

The flesh on the bones was like blood tofu that simply attached to the surface, scattered along the leg bones.

Sticky blood soaked his trouser legs with musculature and flowed down the alley floor.

didn't even notice it, just staggered, and only the leg bones that still had a little muscle attached to them folded down,

Even the people who came fell to the ground in the alley.

"Ah......h

At this time, the visitor reacted, and let out an uncontrollable scream of pain and even misery.

「…… Who...... Who?"

Someone who realizes that there may be a third party and makes a move.

The man collapsed on the ground, turned his head, looked around with red eyes, and hissed and shouted,

Originally, he was already about to escape from this alley smoothly, and with his ability to hide, it was like water entering the sea, and he was confident that the Abnormal Adjustment Bureau would definitely not be able to catch him again.

But at this time, something hidden in the darkness did not know and destroyed his plan.

He was incapacitated and almost paralyzed here, like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

After another pause, the man looked around again, his voice slowed down a little, and then he said in a loud voice,

「…… I've lost the ability to resist, won't you come out and tell me your name and collect your gains?"

This voice also carries a lot of inexplicable demagogy,

makes people want to move, and subconsciously have to think down and act according to what they say.

Even, this demagogy is stronger than the previous use of this person on the two investigators of the Investigation Bureau.

However, Jing Chen only felt this demagogy...... But I didn't feel too strong a strong impact.

It feels like a mosquito buzzing in my ear, and I don't feel anything other than being a little irritated and wanting to reach out and slap it to death.

Jing Chen still blended into the shadows of the wall, did not continue to shoot, and did not come out.

There are people from the Abnormal Adjustment Bureau, and there is no need for Jing Chen to come forward.

Even Jing Chen believed that even if he didn't make a move, this person wouldn't be able to run far out of the alley.

The Bureau of Anomalies has used special means to evacuate the surrounding residents and pedestrians, and it is impossible not to make other preparations.

And at this time,

Briefly affected, the two investigators of the Investigation Bureau who were in a trance also came back to their senses.

Follow, and then quickly use their respective abilities,

It further destroys the ability of the comers to resist.

At the same time, outside the alley, two more investigators hurried over and directly controlled the person who had basically lost the ability to resist.

「…… Ahem......

The half-paralyzed man looked up at the four investigators, coughed twice, and smiled on his face.

「…… Storm, scorching ......"

"Stagnation ......"

Just the moment they saw this smile, the four experienced investigators tacitly acted at the same time,

It greatly restricts and weakens the ability of these people to resist and act.

The movements of the incoming people who were hit hard again were affected, and they were a little sluggish and slow.

The smile on his face seemed to freeze, and it still lingered on his face.

「…… Host...... Lord, please allow me, lowly, to return to your embrace......

「…… Lord, everything you say is true, and what you do is true...... I am your humble believer......

Slowly, little by little, the frenzy on his face and eyes overflowed.

discourse

The sound fell, and the body began to expand rapidly.

The faces of the four investigators changed and they stepped back a little.

And immediately after, the body of the person who came seemed to swell to the limit,

It's like a balloon filled with water being burst.

It didn't blow up, but some vague flesh and blood collapsed and leaked to the ground.

I can't find the complete appearance of this person anymore,

All that remained was a bloody piece of clothing spread on the ground.

The four retreating investigators stepped forward in an instant, but apart from the blur of flesh and blood on the ground and the ragged clothes,

I couldn't find anything else useful.

And beside him, Jing Chen clearly witnessed the whole process, and looked at the blurred flesh and blood on the ground,

Raised his head again and looked at the sky.

He could feel that the person didn't seem to have run away...... It's simply dead.

Or rather...... Returned to the bosom of his Lord?

Jing Chen turned his gaze, and then his gaze fell back on the four people in the alley, squatting or standing, or examining the blurred flesh and clothes on the ground, or informing the other investigators.

One of the investigators picked up the communication device and informed the other investigators, and then paused.

Then he turned his head and looked around the alley,

「…… Thank you for your previous efforts."

The investigator was probably talking to Jing Chen, but he couldn't determine where Jing Chen was.

"You're ...... Inspired comrades?"

The investigator asked speculatively, apparently aware of the situation.

There are only a handful of members of the Apocalypse who have a reason to help the Bureau of Revelation and have the ability to help the Bureau.

However, Jing Chen did not answer, and he still did not speak.

The investigator paused, and did not continue,

"Thank ......"

Just said thank you again, and turned back again.

So as not to make a mistake in guessing and leak more relevant information.

Jing Chen clinged to the shadows on the wall, and then turned his head to look at the wandering old man in the alley who had twisted out of control and turned into a monster,

At this moment, the monster that the wandering old man had twisted into had grown into a strange environment around him.

And after being taken away some of the so-called fountains of youth,

The twisted monster did not die, but instead showed a vigorous and majestic vitality, assimilating the surrounding buildings, plants, and even the land.

At the same time, it exudes strong pollution.

However, except for Jing Chen, there were four investigators from the Abnormal Investigation Bureau, which were enough to bear it, so it didn't cause too much serious impact.

"Lord ......"

I don't know where the faint sound came from the monster sounded again.

The monster and the plants on the walls of the alley bloomed,

The petals began to fall, as if they were carrying the seeds of a plant in the direction of the four investigators.

The four investigators who had examined the blurred flesh and clothes of the man on the ground after the collapse and notified the other investigators turned their heads,

They all looked at the twisted monster.

"Hot ......"

A hot, intense light burst out, scorching the flowers and seeds that drifted by.

But the flowers that float out still seem to be full of vitality,

Every time it is burned by the heat, it grows again.

"Get out of the way!"

Seeing this, the expressions of the four investigators changed, and they moved out of the way at the same time.

The investigator, who wielded the power of the storm, moved again,

A gust of wind blew the petals open, and they were confined in a small area in the alley, circling constantly.

「…… What should I do?"

Three of the investigators looked at the presumably lead.

After a pause, the lead investigator said decisively,

"Eliminate, eliminate...... We can't let it spread."

"Understood."

The four investigators got their hands dirty again.

The power that erupted was enough to destroy the monster that had become a mutation,

The scorching light burned like fire, burning with the storm on the twisted monster.

Every time the monster's body is burned, it recovers a little.

However, the scorching light, with its great power, is also unyielding, and continues to fight against this monster.

Beside him, in the shadows on the wall, Jing Chen looked at the battle between several investigators of the Abnormal Investigation Bureau and this monster, and then withdrew his gaze.

To put it bluntly, the monster in this alley now is a twisted monster that may be slightly stronger.

If this were the case, the Bureau of Heterogeneity would not be able to deal with it, and the entire social order would have collapsed long ago.

After a pause, Jing Chen thought about the person who tried to obtain the Fountain of Youth,

Jumping out of the shadows, out of here.

In the shadows of the urban area of Wang'an City, it jumped forward quickly.

In Wang'an City, in a room with lights off, just a laptop screen.

A young man sits on a bed, covered with a quilt, and his laptop rests on his lap.

His name is Chen, and his work is ordinary, but he is especially keen on hunting strange things on weekdays.

In my spare time, most of the time I post under the unsolved mysteries of the Internet, posting to netizens,

From the aspects of science, metaphysics, folklore, biology, etc., the analysis of the head of the earth is the way.

Let a group of netizens eat melons, and the masses shouted 666 after watching it.

However, he also knew that what he said was purely, and there was no reference to it.

He didn't even know that he himself liked the analysis of this kind of hunting strange things,

Or do you like this feeling of being immersed in this mysterious world, out of the ordinary...... Or, it is the worship and shouting of the masses who like to eat melons6.

But...... All that, a few days ago, changed.

Because now, the place where netizens do analysis has changed, and it has become a forum for the "Divine Revelation Platform".

Looking back now, he sighed that he didn't know where his luck came from.

He seems to have been lucky lately, as if the goddess of fate or luck had favored him.

A few days ago, he bragged on the Internet as usual,

I actually saw a person, mentioned the Apocalypse trading platform, and intimately pasted the address.

At the same time, he said something quite strange and weird.

For that weird thing, Chen Ming is just commonplace,

After all, in strange things, there are a bunch of them on the Internet.

But for the online trading platform, I couldn't help but be interested.

Then, he followed the address and entered the Divine Revelation trading platform.

Originally, he thought it was a gathering place for lovers of special events,

But I didn't expect that the main body in the Divine Revelation platform was really a transaction.

It's just a pity that he didn't have an account on the Apocalypse platform at that time.

You can only see the name of one trading object, and nothing else.

Then, he saw the forums attached to the Apocalypse platform.

There's a discussion...... It's just that they are said conclusively, and the discussion is the same as the truth.

There are all kinds of strange and weird things.

At that time, he particularly admired the imagination and storytelling ability of these people.

The details of a post are really detailed...... It's also worth scrutinizing.

Seeing that he, a lover of mysterious event analysis, was excited, excited, and eager to join in immediately, point out the country, or "make a big splash".

And then...... Then he found out that he didn't have an account, he couldn't speak, and he could only see the content of some of the posters, and no one else's replies were visible.

It's tickling for him.

When I tried to register an account, I found that ...... This thing even needs an invitation code.

However, there is no more detailed way to obtain the invitation code, but it can be obtained from old users.

Then, answer the local questions

The principle of finding the case,

He looked at the forum posts of the trading platform again,

I really found an old user selling invitation codes for him.

At that time, he thought that even if the invitation code asked for money, ten or twenty yuan, or even less than one hundred yuan, he would be able to accept it.

It's up to the website owner to maintain the site.

But...... After clicking on it, he was stunned.

The two invitation code trading methods given by the old users,

One was a plant that he didn't know at all at the time, called Sunflower, which cost ten.

One is to give money, two million. Or a million, but you need to contact him to discuss, and it is estimated that there are any additional conditions.

Looking at these two conditions, it is only one word different from his previous imagination...... That's a million words.

Later, he wondered if this trading platform belonged to any game.

After all, whether it was the kind of trading object that he had never heard of the name, or the currency number beyond his understanding, it was very similar.

I checked the circle and didn't find it, so he tried to add other contact information given by the user.

However, after adding it, the first sentence he asked made people black.

「…… Dude, which game is that? Or ......"

Didn't even send him any messages back.

When he went back to the forum of the trading platform, he found that the previous post was gone.

Suspected to have been deleted by the forum administrators?

Then he went back to the post where he saw the address of the Divine Revelation platform at the beginning, and wanted to ask,

Found...... The post was also deleted.

If this is all he does, he will only be left with a regret that he is about to move.

It may last for a while and then be forgotten.

But at this time...... His lucky place came.

He actually picked up the dream dagger!

now

Sitting on the bed, looking at the Apocalypse trading platform displayed on the laptop.

Chen Ming's face was still excited and even excited,

A little excited, and then from under the pillow next to him, he took out his dream dagger.

"Dream Dagger...... Dream ...... come true"

Holding it in his hand, his eyes were a little obsessed, Chen Ming repeated and muttered in a low voice.

This dagger is like a beautifully crafted piece of art.

On the metal handle, there is also a blood-red gemstone,

The blade is cut on both sides, and the exquisite forging process leaves a fine and regular pattern on the knife body.

The only thing missing is that there may be a matching set of daggers.

That day, when Chen Ming went out and passed by an alley, the dagger suddenly fell from the sky.

It almost fell on him, and after being frightened, his eyes fell on this exquisite dagger.

Gradually, I was attracted and then I picked it up.

It just feels like this dagger is so perfect and beautiful.

As soon as the dagger arrived, some thoughts popped into his mind.

It felt like the dagger might be able to grant his wish.

It's just that this whimsical idea has no basis.

He laughed and just thought,

If he can really fulfill his wish, let him have an invitation code to the Apocalypse trading platform.

And then...... The whole wish came true in a tortuous way.

A distorted monster appeared in his field of vision, with a mix of growths, eyes, and a mess.

Just seeing the existence of monsters made him a little crazy.

It's just that the dream dagger woke him up, and then made him feel more clearly that it can fulfill his wish, but at some cost.

Then...... After waking up from the monster's influence, he just wanted to live,

So at the cost of life, using a dagger, he actually killed this monster.

And when he defeated the monsters...... A potion powerhouse arrived just in time.

So, he met this capable person, and exchanged it for an invitation code for the Divine Revelation trading platform from this capable person.

His wish was granted.

now

Looking at the dagger in his hand, his eyes became more and more obsessed.

What is the price of the dagger relative to the fulfillment of the wish.

It's just a little lifespan, so what does it matter......

He stroked the dagger gently.

"Dream Dagger...... Dream ...... come true"

"What did you say?"

Just when he fell into obsession and even fanaticism,

In the room where he should have been alone, a second person's voice suddenly sounded.

Chen Ming woke up suddenly, and a spirit raised his head, and stood up from the bed vigilantly,

"Who?"
