Chapter 183

Views:

The three supernatural beings who disappeared were all "loose people". They neither joined the army nor the superhuman organization. They made a living by receiving tasks from the mission center. They were all experienced bounty veterans. The power level of these three people is not high, and the highest has only broken through the second level not long ago, but they are all interesting: one is the mutant earth type, the other is the strength and healing dual-line power user, and the third is the eagle-type atavistic type Ability, especially good at long-range reconnaissance. Because their abilities complement each other, the three of them will occasionally cooperate together. After the incident, the mission management center found many records of them receiving missions in the name of a temporary team. And the disappearance this time happened precisely during the process of the three of them performing the mission together. The task is not difficult. The publisher offers a high price reward for the first-level wood-type zombie crystal core. There is no limit to the mission time, and the more the better, that is to say, as long as the wood-type crystal core is found, it can be traded with the publisher at any time according to the reward price. There are more than 200 singles in total, and the temporary team formed by these three supernatural beings is one of them. There is no hard and fast time limit for this kind of long-term mission. As long as you want to, it is normal to stay outside the base and kill zombies for a month or two. These three supernatural beings all live alone in the outer city, and their social relations are weak. They rarely communicate with others except for receiving missions. It is said that even if an accident occurs during the mission, I am afraid that no one will find out after a year or so. Coincidentally, the power and healing dual-line supernatural user accidentally rescued a girl in a mission a month ago. The girl is also a supernatural person, and she is also the team leader of a supernatural person organization in the base. He happened to be a fellow townsman with the dual-line power user, so he recognized him as a brother because of gratitude. There was no news for half a month after the dual-line supernatural person joined the mission. The girl sensed that something was wrong, so she went to the mission center's website to find out who the other two people who were doing the mission were, and then went to the Population Management Office to ask someone to check the entry and exit. According to the records, after finding that the three people did not come back, they immediately went to the City Defense Public Security Department to report to the police. Originally, this kind of thing is very common, and all tasks have risks. As long as they eat this bowl of food, there are too many cases of never returning. After the end of the world, communication is cut off, and even if something happens outside the base, the Ministry of Public Security can do limited things. At most, it can infer death after a long period of absence and engrave the name on the monument of the victim. If it were someone else, those who knew each other would also disappear, and life would always go on. But the girl is stubborn, she said that the other party will not break her promise when she makes an appointment, she is a canine atavistic ability, so she simply led a team of men to follow the smell and go out to find it by herself. After searching for more than a week, she finally found him. He was buried next to a farmhouse in a deserted village ten kilometers northwest of the capital base. The girl dug out the man, and then dug out the other two companions. The corpses were still intact, except for a big hole in the back of the head. The girl wiped away her tears, pointed to the ground where the dirt was flying, and said, "Keep digging!" The next day, the Hundred People's Grave ten miles away in the suburbs of Beijing shocked the whole city. All kinds of opinions and conjectures are flying around in the capital, and the secret of "supernatural beings also have crystal nuclei in their brains" is simply a balloon that bursts at the touch of a poke, revealed to the public in the most intense and eye-catching way . The management of the base immediately set up a task force to carry out the investigation with all its strength. In order to stabilize public opinion and quell public opinion, relevant investigation results will be notified on the electronic screen of the mission center and the official website of the base. As a member of the management, Shen Shi'an got the news much earlier than these official reports. The atmosphere in the conference room on the second floor of the villa was calm, and Shen Shi'an sent a copy of the document he received from the supernatural union to each of the core team members present. "A total of 187 corpses were excavated from the mass grave. Based on information such as identity bracelets, fingerprints, and DNA, it was preliminarily verified that all of them were base residents, all of them were supernatural beings, and all of them had their skulls pried open." "All the victims lived alone," Lin Ruan carefully flipped through the identity information corresponding to each corpse: "No organization, no relatives and friends, and extremely weak social relations. The murderer deliberately chose the target that was the least likely to be discovered. The murders were all premeditated, planned, and targeted." Liu Fangzhou scolded harshly, and the more he looked at them, the colder his hands and feet became: "According to the forensic examination report, the earliest death time among these corpses has been more than three months. Now, doesn't that mean Someone discovered the secret of the supernatural person's crystal nucleus three months ago, and has been lurking in the base to kill people quietly? Lu Xiuyuan shook his head: "These are just the corpses we found. There are still others that have not been found, or those that have been destroyed long ago. Who knows how many victims there are." Maybe it started long before we came to the capital. ""The supernatural union has listed all supernatural persons who have no entry and exit records for more than half a year as missing. Use the victim information obtained this time to screen and see if you can find more potential victims so as to determine the earliest incident time . "Xu Ge moved his gaze away from the photo of the Hundred People's Tomb, and took several deep breaths before he managed to calm down." Captain, do you have any clues about who the murderer is? ""Most of the victims disappeared during the mission, which shows that the murderer is very familiar with their mission and itinerary, and it is very likely that they followed them all the way out of the city. Therefore, the special task force is investigating the information of all relevant task issuers and other order recipients of each task to see if they can find overlapping parts; Comparing the list of records comprehensively, as long as the murderer really followed them out, the result is expected to be obtained soon. Chen Nan asked: "Could it be Zhong Han who did it?" "Shen Shi'an shook his head: "It wasn't him, at least he wouldn't be the one who did it directly. Zhong Han was no longer in the capital. "After the news of Hundred People's Tomb came back, he asked Shen Xun to confirm again that Zhong Han was more than a thousand kilometers away, which was farther away from the capital than when Shen Xun first followed him. Xiong Manshan asked: "Is that possible? Is it Hershey? I'm not talking about the main body, but the puppet avatar or something. "Shen Xun put his hands on his chest and leaned on the back of the chair, "The grade is too low, it's useless." "He only said half of what he said, but fortunately, Xiong Manshan automatically completed it: the level of the killed supernatural being is too low, and the crystal nucleus has no effect on Hexiu. This makes sense, Xiong Manshan Touching his chin and nodding: his ability level is much higher than that of the victim, and when he was fighting with the puppet that day, he didn't find that the puppet had the slightest tendency to pick the back of his head. "If it was Hexiu, he wouldn't bury the corpse to hide The evidence will only be publicized with great fanfare, causing human beings to kill each other. "However, at present, it seems that it is not far from human beings to reach this step. Shen Shi'an asked Tao Yuan: "How is the mood of the team members?" "Ordinary people are fine, but the supernatural beings are shocked, panicked, and can't believe it." "Suddenly learned that I have crystal nuclei in my brain and may become the target of others. It is not normal to panic." But it is all within the controllable range. "" Thank you for your hard work. Pay more attention. ""I understand. "Before the meeting ended, Xu Geqing She sighed: "Even if the murderer is caught, the base can't be the same as before." No one could answer her. On August 7th, the task force responsible for investigating the Hundred Tombs incident focused on four suspects and arrested them. After three days of interrogation, a total of 26 accomplices involved in the case were confessed, and an entire article was exposed. Underground crystal core trading chain of supernatural beings. On the last day of the interrogation, Shen Shi'an went to watch. Because there are mind-reading supernatural powers among the torturers, the suspects can't hide their secrets at all, but once the question involves whether there is a mastermind behind the scenes, or how they discovered that the supernatural powers have crystal nuclei in their brains, all suspects People will fall into a state of mental frenzy, unable to ask a word. Shen Shi'an stood behind the one-way mirror in the interrogation room, watching the torturers try to introduce the topic of "the mastermind behind the scenes" over and over again, but one of the main criminals just sat on the chair and did not respond. "In this case, mind reading can't read anything," Gu Changsheng, who is one of the leaders of the task force, stood next to him and explained, "What I read is all noise, according to our criminal psychologist Analysis, it is very likely that they have been subjected to mental intervention, that is, brainwashing." As soon as Gu Changsheng finished speaking, the culprit, who had kept his head down, suddenly struggled frantically, broke the handcuffs and chains and rushed to the one-way street. Beside the mirror, his face was full of fanaticism: "...angel! It was the angel who pointed out the way! The angel led me to the eternal glory!..." The raging flames shot up from him with fanatical slogans, but it was only a dozen seconds , and burned the living people into black ashes. Gu Changcheng was taken aback, then quickly calmed down, picked up the microphone and gave an order: "All prisoners will be given more doses of sedatives and will be closely monitored for 24 hours. Brother, are you okay?" Shen Shi'an shook his head, turned around and talked to Shen Xun. Look at each other. On August 15, 2020, except for one main murderer who burned himself to death, the remaining 29 murderers in the Hundred Massacre case were executed in public next to the monument to the victims. This is the first and largest open gun after the end of the world\' resolve the incident. The intention of the management is obvious, and they want to use this as an example to scare the monkeys and deter those who are ready to move because of the exposure of the crystal nucleus of the supernatural being. In the morning of that day, the entire base in the capital city was empty of thousands of people, and the monument to the victims was crowded with people. Noisy voices buzzed: "These people killed almost two hundred people with supernatural powers?" Didn’t a lot of people go missing in the absolute dead zone at that time? Seven or eight kinds of supernatural powers are all absorbed by the crystal nucleus after killing people! Besides them, there are many murderers who have not been caught, and they all escaped by relying on supernatural powers." What kind of crystal nuclei are there?" "Who knows, if you can shoot one out when you get shot later." "They are dead, who owns the crystal nuclei in their brains?" "Then Who else can be counted, it must be the military, I guess there is still some trouble." "Tsk, if you are lucky, you can pick up one." "You are not a supernatural person, what do you want a crystal nucleus for?" "Take it and sell it! I heard that it is dozens of times more expensive than zombie crystal cores. If you find one, you will send it away." Slightly deportation or heavy shooting!" "Just be careful not to be found out, just pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other, who can find out after absorbing..." In order to ensure the smooth execution of the shooting, all prisoners were injected Lots of tranquilizers. Just before the execution, one of the prisoners turned his head to look at the crowd of people watching the execution, and suddenly opened his mouth and shouted: "Ordinary people can also absorb crystal nuclei! Ordinary people can also absorb crystal nuclei!! Ordinary people can also absorb crystal nuclei!!! "Those who are far away cannot hear, but those who are close can hear clearly. The already noisy crowd erupted in an instant: "What did he say? Ordinary people can also absorb crystal nuclei?" It's the supernatural person's crystal nucleus! The kind that grows out of the supernatural person's brain!" "So ordinary people can also have supernatural powers? Just absorb the crystal nucleus?" "Really or not?" "Really or not!" "... "Ten minutes after the shootout ended, Shen Shi'an got an accurate answer from Mr. Gu who had a very unsightly face: "Really. "The heart sank suddenly, "Can ordinary people really acquire the abilities of supernatural beings by absorbing crystal nuclei?" "Mr. Gu sank into his chair and nodded. Several incidents in succession made him sleepless for half a month. At this moment, he was more upset and haggard: "A few minutes ago, the Huang family selected an ordinary soldier to try to absorb one of the murderers. The remaining crystal nuclei succeeded. "There are more than 6 million survivors in the capital base, of which 5.5 million are ordinary people. The chaos caused by the supernatural person's crystal nucleus was originally limited to the supernatural person, but once ordinary people can also obtain it by absorbing the crystal nucleus The supernatural ability undoubtedly puts the two groups that were already tense on opposite sides. Mr. Gu sighed and rubbed his forehead: "Go back, don't take any more missions in the near future, the capital may be in chaos. "Mr. Gu's prophecy soon came true. On the night of August 21, a tragedy occurred in the Shuguang Group, one of the top ten organizations of supernatural beings in the capital base. They oppressed and insulted all the members by poisoning the food and water in the cafeteria, and then went on a killing spree, slaughtering half of the organization overnight, with a total of more than 200 casualties. The military then sent troops to suppress, and three Twenty-nine of the twelve murderers involved in the case were killed on the spot, and the remaining three were missing. Two days later, at the regular meeting of the supernatural union, except for Shen Shi'an, only Zhao Xinjiang was brought by his side, and the other members of the council were all supportive. After the regular meeting, Xiao Lang called Shen Shi'an aside: "Doesn't your boyfriend like to follow you the most? Why did you come out alone at this time? " "He's at home." "He Xiu's puppets don't know if there are any left in the capital. For the sake of safety, they negotiated that one person must stay in the base area." Besides, I'm not alone. "Xiao Lang glanced at Zhao Xinjiang who was behind him and immediately ignored him: "You have a big heart. Be careful recently, the gossip has spread that those of us organization leaders with high levels of abilities have been included in the bounty list. ""Reward list? ""It's the kind that spends money to kill you, to be precise, it wants the crystal nucleus in your brain." "Xiao Lang observed the surroundings vigilantly, and at the same time lowered his voice: "I know you are strong, but it is because of your strong ability that you will be targeted. How many people are secretly coveting to suck your ability away." Strong ability is not a gold medal for avoiding death. There are too many abilities that can approach you without anyone noticing. It is even more difficult to guard against if you are attacked by someone around you. Have you heard about the head of the Shuguang regiment? Is it wrong to be brought down by his subordinates with drugs and then stabbed to death? Not only you, let those people under you, such as Ark Manshan Luxiu Stay away from them, be careful, idiot, all of you are coveted good abilities. On the way back to Sharpen by car, Shen Shi'an stared out of the car window for a long time. There were a lot less people and vehicles on the road, and the pedestrians he saw by chance had wolf-like eyes. He asked Zhao Xinjiang to take a detour and pass in front of the mission center building , the formerly bustling building was more than half empty. The management successively issued several severe orders to stabilize people’s hearts, but no one with supernatural powers dared to go out, let alone take on tasks. At least the base could still receive Surveillance, once you leave the base, you really don’t know how to die. You are afraid that you will become the target of other supernatural beings, afraid that you will become the target of ordinary people, and even more afraid that your teammates who fight side by side will stab yourself a few times. The entire capital base is like Is a repressed, bulging, restless fry\' The medicine package was only short of the last spark that completely detonated. The only good news is that the group of zombies that had been approaching along the east coast seemed to have stopped for some reason. Compared with the tense and frightened atmosphere in other organizations, the sharp edge mixed with supernatural beings and ordinary people can be called the most harmonious and friendly. The new superpower team members headed by Xu Qiang are now very grateful for the competition with the ordinary old team members after the railway line mission. The average rookie realizes the enormous value he can achieve. Every week, according to the contribution value, the twenty ordinary players who can eat small stoves in the cafeteria account for at least half of them. Taking the risk of being shot for no reason and digging crystal nuclei with your teammates? That's really a brain hole because they can't get out of the mission in a short period of time, and the team members are idle at home. After discussing with Shen Shi'an, Tao Yuan and others, they doubled the training intensity during the assessment period. There were screams in the sharp blade base from morning till night. Shen Shi'an still maintains the habit of morning exercises, and adjusts the wake-up time from 6:00 to 5:30. After getting up early every day, run along the city wall of the base for half an hour to an hour. Running can make people feel free, and he enjoys the process. Because he had too many things to worry about: how to deal with the matter of the crystal core of the supernatural being, where the capital base will go, how to advance the railway plan to the next step, and whether Hexiu still has puppets in the capital... So when he suddenly When seeing that familiar figure, Shen Shi'an didn't know whether he should breathe a sigh of relief or raise his heart. He Xiu leaned against the inner side of the city wall, as if he had been waiting for him here, and even raised his hand to say hello: "What a coincidence?" Shen Shi'an breathed calmly and stood upright. "You seem to be a little thinner." Hexiu took two steps closer: "Why, can't you sleep well because you are worried that someone will pry open your cute skull?" The exposure has something to do with you?" "You've wronged me, I really didn't know that the evil spirit of the underworld brought me such a big surprise in addition to creating undead corpses. Ah, the crystal nucleus in the brain of the supernatural being I haven't tasted what it is like." Hexiu took two steps closer: "However, I must also admit that the timing of this exposure is really ingenious, and I have to wonder who specially arranged it to help me realize the plan. Yes." Shen Shi'an's body tensed up, and his long sword buzzed with abundant spiritual power: "Plan? what is he up to... Suddenly there was a slight stabbing pain in the neck, and then a cold liquid poured into Shen Shi'an's blood vessels. The body fell down like ooze, and was caught by someone. Shen Shi'an bit the tip of his tongue hard, and saw the second face belonging to He Xiu before he completely passed out. "Go to sleep." The second Hexiu said with a smile: "Wake up, the world will change a lot."
