This is also the first day Jiang Ji is discharged from the hospital.
In addition to the talents of healing psychics, the Investigation Bureau has invested heavily in the research and development of various black-tech potions to quickly restore the psychics' combat capabilities without causing hidden damage, allowing them to engage in new battles.
In the later part of the comic, strange events occurred so frequently across the country that people could only choose to inflict great damage in order to quickly replenish their combat power.
No psychic objected.
The world is destroyed strangely and no one is spared.
And even though many spells and potions have the side effect of shortening lifespan, they basically won't live to that age.
Jiang Ji ended her leisurely life of recuperation. No one came to pick her up this time. After walking out of the Ghost Prevention Institute and a few steps away, she reached the Investigation Bureau building.
Along the way, she met many people in formal attire, probably colleagues from other departments, who took the initiative to greet her, "Investigator Jiang."
She stepped into the elevator, and the operator who was going to other floors smiled at her and took the initiative to help her press the button for the floor that led to the Psychic's office.
Jiang Ji is now ranked ninth on the list, holding the Poseidon's Scepter and the Magic Mirror in her hands. Even if these people don't know her secrets, seeing her safely come out of high-level ghost stories several times and getting a lot of points is enough to prove that her ability should not be underestimated.
Jiang Ji entered the office under vague gazes all the way.
She saw Ah Jin's huge dark bags under his eyes. His dull and numb face looked very much like the Faceless Man, and he looked surprised.
"Ah Jin, did you steal a chicken last night?"
The listless blond young man didn't want to talk. He waved his hand and grinned in an indescribable way, his smile was uglier than bitterness.
To others, it was just a one-night absence, but to Ajin, he was beaten repeatedly countless times in three copies!
His body and his heart are both scarred!
In his dream, he used a knife to carve words little by little wherever he could touch, and now he still felt phantom pain all over his body.
When he woke up the next day, he was lying in front of the iron gate like a homeless man. Although he had a deep sleep that night, the experience of dancing on the edge of a knife in his dream and the multiple deaths had greatly stimulated his brain.
He now felt that his body was hollowed out and he was exhausted.
Fortunately, I persisted and got some clues.
Jiang Ji didn't ask any more questions. She looked around and saw that no one else in the office was there, and no one was talking in the group chat. "Where are they?"
"Weisheng and Lao Ye are on a business trip. Weisheng flew to Lingnao City to attend an academic conference on dream research organized by a university.
The weather forecast shows that there will be less precipitation in the southeastern part of Longxi City recently, and there is a high possibility of drought developing, so Lao Ye was asked to go there in advance.
The boss was called away by his superiors.
Lao Xue was assigned by the Central Control to go to a wig market in Xicheng District for a mission. It seems that Team 3 encountered some problems while carrying out the mission. "
When other teams are short of manpower, or when the psychics in the team happen to be restrained by strange abilities, they will report to the central control and request external assistance.
The central control system will then quickly match the most suitable support personnel nearby based on the information of all the existing superpowers in the database and make arrangements and coordination.
The potential value of Ajin's "devouring" ability is also very high, but he needs to be fed continuously in order to exert his terrifying power in battle.
Xue Li's ability is to control gravity.
He can use gravity to suppress the enemy, and he can also use anti-gravity to control the enemy. Both his attack and control are not weak.
The upper limit of his mental power is not low, and his potential is assessed to be very high. He might even be able to advance from gravity to universal gravitation. The headquarters has high expectations for him, and those psychics are also very convinced that Xue Li was recruited into the team.
Unfortunately, in the original comics, she was taken away by Jie Yu.
Xue Li returned to the bureau after seven in the evening.
Jiang Ji only then realized that the mission Team Three received this time was not a strange incident, but a man-made disaster, and the target was a sorcerer from Southeast Asia.
This sorcerer belongs to an overseas organization and his purpose of arriving in China is to practice the evil magic of Southeast Asia, the flying head magic.
He flew his head with his intestines and other digestive organs out to suck blood. This ferocious head would not let go of any living thing it encountered along the way. It would do evil at night and return to its body at dawn.
This sorcerer was noticed by the security department as soon as he entered Tonghua City. He basically stayed in the hotel and his daily activities were normal. He initially looked for stray cats and dogs, or marginalized people in society who were not taken seriously. The first body was not found until yesterday.
After receiving the instructions, the three teams of psychics quickly set out.
After being discovered, this man actually hid his head among tens of thousands of head molds in the wig market. Some soldiers armed with live ammunition who went in to search had all their blood sucked out of them, and died in a miserable way.
After Xue Li arrived at the wig market, he directly controlled the nearby gravity field to prevent the sorcerer from escaping or suddenly flying up to suck blood.
Jiang Ji didn't remember this being mentioned in the comics. Perhaps the cartoonist didn't write it, or perhaps it was a variable caused by the deviation of the plot.
This time they took a plane, the journey took four hours.
Perhaps because she had just been discharged from the hospital and there were no emergencies today, Jiang Ji was happy to read posts in the office for the entire afternoon.
As it got dark, she left the office.
Ying Huai happened to come back. He was wearing combat uniform and it was obvious that he had just finished working overtime on a report. He stopped her as he passed by, took something out of his pocket and threw it to her, saying simply, "Yours."
Jiang Ji raised his hand to catch it.
When I looked down, I saw it was a flat amulet.
It had just rained outside, so his hair was still a little wet, and the water stains on his combat uniform were shining. He spoke with a nasal voice, "Ajin asked for it for you."
Jiang Ji asked casually: "When did he ask for it?"
Wasn’t Ajin tortured to death in the virtual space last night?
Moreover, she remembered that none of the protagonists had any religious beliefs. They all felt that it was better to rely on themselves than on others, and there was no point in asking for protection from gods or Buddhas.
Ying Huai thought for a moment and said, "Let's find a purchasing agent."
Jiang Ji: “…”
Cyber faith, right?
This time they were on a business trip to the headquarters for training. The combat logistics department arranged a vehicle and Wang Chao drove them to the airport.
He is also one of the potion holders.
When he got out of the car to help open the door, Jiang Ji noticed that the blue ID card on his chest had been changed to orange, representing a person with special abilities.
Ajin and Xueli were already in the car.
A few people chatted in the car and learned that a strange incident had happened near Wang Chao's home not long ago. He was accidentally involved in it, and his supernatural powers were awakened while he was avoiding the pursuit of ghosts and waiting for rescue.
Ah Jin has regained his vitality and nodded in agreement: "I understand this feeling. Sometimes supernatural powers awaken so suddenly."
The other party seemed to have found a soulmate: "Not that bad."
Wang Chao was as sunny and talkative as ever: "Brother Xue, you should pay attention when you go there this time. It is said that the headquarters has not been very peaceful recently. The supernatural people from the city branch who just went there were called away to deal with strange stories after just one day of rest. Even those from the rookie training camp had to bite the bullet and do it."
"It seems that Investigator Zheng and the others have also been assigned a task."
Xue Li was also a little surprised: "Why is the headquarters so short of people?"
