Chapter 206 Shattered Statue
Harry frowned slightly. These security agency investigators were so rude.
The bishop greeted you so kindly, but you just stood there like a fool.
"Hmm," he coughed twice to remind the other party of his gaffe.
A few people came to their senses and greeted each other, respectful but also a little distant.
The evil god in Yorktown?
On Crown's shoulders stood Fokine, with Basta in his arms.
He didn't care about their attitudes, and looked around for the source of the malice. He had a strong sense of familiarity with this malice, which had appeared in his dreams countless times and tortured him for a long time.
But the malice seemed to blend into the air, attacking from all directions, and he couldn't tell where it came from.
Since he only sensed malice and no warning of danger, Crown suppressed his urge to find the answer immediately and was secretly on guard in his heart.
He first checked the monster in the sealed container. Seeing the monster's octopus-like appearance and eyes all over its body, he had a bad feeling.
The tentacles, eyes, and certain features are similar to those on the evil god statue in Yorktown.
If there is a real connection between the two, then the situation is not optimistic.
Even the small town of York has secret followers of the evil god, and Rhine City, with a larger population base, should have even more cultists lurking in the shadows.
"Captain Leah, take me up there and tell me what you've discovered."
"Okay, sir, follow me."
Crown followed them upstairs to a small compartment with two beds and listened to them report the intelligence they had so far.
First, Lorraine explained her findings, and Leah talked about the Security Bureau's response: "A large number of investigators have been assembled to search the nearby area for the escaped monsters. Seven have been killed so far."
A high-ranking police officer with a pot belly described the current progress: "Based on Ms. Lorraine's description, we have reconstructed the appearance of the woman from whom the monster emerged.
Now the nearby blocks have been completely blocked off, and the Patrol Headquarters is organizing personnel to investigate and restore the victim's social relationships.
But this is a huge workload and it will take us some time to obtain useful intelligence.
Residents of nearby neighborhoods have been notified, and patrol officers will visit their homes tonight to inquire about the incident.”
Clown nodded slightly: "Very good, let's do it this way."
These professional matters can be left to professionals, and he does not need to intervene to avoid giving blind orders.
His job is to keep the situation under control, and to take action only when others are unable to handle the monsters.
After thinking for a while, he issued an order: "Notify everyone to search this house carefully to see if there are any strange statues or the like."
In his opinion, someone here might have been corrupted by the evil god's dream and was worshipping the evil god.
This was his conclusion based on his own experience of being corrupted by the evil statue in Yorktown. He believed that the biggest suspect was the woman in this room who gave birth to the monster.
A woman accidentally picks up an object contaminated with the power of an evil god or makes one herself, and as a result, she herself becomes the carrier of the evil spirit's power.
Liya bowed slightly: "As you command, I will go down and inform everyone to search again."
In fact, before the church people arrived, this place had been searched strictly to try to find any clues.
Leah and the patrol officer went downstairs together to announce the order, and Clown asked, "What are the circumstances of the paranormal cases you have encountered recently?"
Luo Lin began to talk about the team’s experience during this period: “Among the cases we have encountered recently, the cases involving evil spirits and monsters have decreased, but there have been a lot of cases of pagan sacrifices, which our team has seen many times.
There were sacrifices on altars of flesh and blood, and there were sacrifices in rituals where hearts were offered, and in each of these cases a certain strange symbol appeared.”
Soon police officers came up and started a new round of search. The two of them stayed at the stairs and continued chatting.
Suddenly, Clown felt that the malice lingering around him was becoming weaker and weaker, and finally it slowly disappeared.
What happened? Did the source of the pollution leave on its own? If it was just an object, it couldn't have grown legs and left on its own, so it could only have been taken away by someone or something, or this malicious intent came directly from someone.
"Excuse me."
Clown said hurriedly, and immediately went to each room on the second floor to check, and asked one by one: "Did anything unusual happen just now?"
"No."
"No."
Luo Lin came over and asked softly, "Sir, is there any problem?"
"Just a guess," he answered and immediately ran downstairs. The stairs made a muffled "dong, dong" sound as if they could not bear the weight.
The noise startled everyone, and those who were searching downstairs turned to look at him.
"Did anyone go out just now?"
Crown glanced around the hall, his eyes landing on Leah's face.
"Well, Lucas said he was a little hungry and went out to buy something to eat. He didn't have breakfast in the morning."
Liya replied that when they went to work together today, her teammates said that they had eaten some midnight snacks yesterday and were not hungry, so they did not eat with them.
"Anyone else out?"
The patrol officer touched the pistol next to his belly and said:
"Sir, no more. I was at the door just now, and no one else went out except the investigator."
"What happened?"
Leah asked, she felt that her teammates' mental state was a little abnormal these days, but in the morning, Luo Lin and the other three went back to the Security Bureau to report the situation, and nothing happened in the middle, which made her secretly wonder if they were too busy recently and became nervous.
But now that a third-level extraordinary person came to ask, her heart unconsciously lifted up again, thinking: "Is there really something wrong with Lucas?"
"Now go out and find Lucas, now."
Klauen walked out of the tavern door and released the Eye of the Beast. Fujin flew up tacitly, flew into the air, and circled above his head.
Although the others didn't know what had happened, since their superior had given the order, they all took action and ran to the street to look for their colleague who had just left.
In a house on a street corner not far away, Lucas stood by the window, pulling the curtains open a little and peeking out.
At his feet lay an unconscious police officer and an elderly couple.
When Lucas heard the order to find the strange statue, he knew he was exposed and found an excuse to leave.
Now seeing the scene before my eyes, I am more certain of my guess.
He raised his arm, and the skin cracked, and the human arm turned into a thick black tentacle.
The tentacle suddenly split open, revealing a strange obsidian statue inside.
The statue was much more lustrous than when he first got it, and the blood stained on it was slowly absorbed by it.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Lucas smiled grimly and said to himself: "The third-level transcendent's spiritual perception is indeed sharp, and he can actually feel the power of my Lord.
I have decided to sacrifice you to my Lord, and my Lord will surely reward me greatly.
Now is dinner time. When I become stronger, I will definitely come to find you, Clown, hahahaha."
A suppressed, low laugh came from the room, like an owl chirping in the dark night.
Lucas' skin cracked and turned into a wriggling pool of flesh, which devoured the three unconscious humans one by one.
After a short while, the piece of meat began to wriggle again and slowly transformed into a young human being.
"This old thing is really disgusting," he spat, put on his police uniform, and swaggered out of the room.
He opened the door and just in time saw two men coming up the stairs, one of them had a big crow perched on his shoulder.
. . . .
"Are you surprised? Are you surprised?"
Crown gave a playful smile and continued, "Should I call you Lucas, or something else?"
He didn't find the target when he released the Beast Eye just now, so he decided to look for it himself.
His extreme cooking skills gave him a sense of smell far superior to that of humans. He identified Lucas's scent and tracked him here.
The person who came out of the room did not look like Lucas at all, but his intuition told him that this person was his target.
The faint malice emanating from this man was exactly the same as what he felt in the tavern.
"Uh, sir, you've got the wrong person," the young man argued.
"Haha, we haven't seen you before, how do you know we are the superiors?"
Harry sneered. This man should be a police officer checking the neighborhood. Logically, he should not know their identities. Moreover, he could see that he was extremely alert.
"Sir."
If you can take a bath in magic water, I will believe what you say. Without waiting for the young man to say anything else, Crown splashed out the golden liquid.
When the police officer saw the unknown object attacking him, he immediately retreated quickly at a speed far exceeding that of an ordinary supernatural person, but a little bit of talisman water was still on his skin.
The talisman water was like being poured onto a sponge and was immediately absorbed. Then, the piece of skin began to emit gray smoke and a foul odor began to fill the small room.
The police officer's human face could no longer be maintained, and it turned into a pile of black and red rotten flesh, waving several black tentacles as thick as an adult's arms.
The moment the enemy's skin was on fire, Crown began to release Sunfire. This skill had not been used for a long time, and now was a good opportunity to see how powerful it was.
Golden flames burned fiercely on the monster's body, and it let out meaningless screams.
After only releasing two times of Sunfire Jutsu, the monster lost its voice and turned into a pool of burning mud.
The gray smoke just emerged and was purified by the golden flame, and not a trace of smoke was emitted.
Is that it?
Harry was about to rush forward to let the bishop see his abilities, but he found that the battle was over just as it began.
He did not feel how powerful the golden fireworks were, but they easily burned the monster, just like a flame igniting cotton.
Klauen cast two more Sunfire spells, completely burning the pile of rotten meat into ashes.
A black statue emerged from the ashes, and he felt the malice lingering around him become even more obvious.
Hehe, a carrier of an evil god has such power, I'm really a little scared.
But now. Come out and bite me!
Klauen continued to attack the statue, and under the continuous shining of golden flames, the statue was completely shattered into debris.
He was still worried, so he took out a bottle of talisman water and poured it on the residue.
He felt relieved when he saw that the residue no longer reacted when it came into contact with the golden talisman water.
Standing up, Crown waved his hand and said, "Let's go, Lucas's problem has been solved."
Harry hesitated and said, "Sir, is this person involved in what happened in the tavern?"
"Who knows?"
