I Have A Divination System

Chapter 70: The monk's wooden fish

Views:

"No." Jing Lu's voice echoed through the microphone, and the obvious tremor revealed the fear in her heart, but she still said firmly, "I admit that I thought about death, but that is only my personal matter. Please, please let them go."

Even though Jing Lu had already felt that there was nothing in this world that she could linger on, she could not remain indifferent when she saw the tens of thousands of people in the stadium whose souls had been sucked out of them. Moreover, these people were all her fans, and they came here to listen to her concert.

Every time she felt down, Lao Du would ask her to hold a concert so that she could see with her own eyes that there were still so many people who loved her in this world. But were these people who loved her going to die because of her

"If you want to kill someone, you can kill me." If her death can save so many people, then her death would not be meaningless.

"I will give you what you want, but not now. Now there is only one thing you need to do, sing and continue your concert. Look, your fans are waiting for you."

As soon as Mr. Zhai finished his sinister words, the audience's voices rang out again.

"Lulu, you look so beautiful today."

"Lulu, you have to be happy."

"Goddess, I want to listen to the fireworks. Will you sing today?"

Jing Lu has heard these words before, from fan letters, messages on Weibo, at concerts, and even when she was going through security at the airport, there would be fans shouting these words to her. She has heard them countless times, but it hardly touched her. Because she always felt that fans would fall in love with her today because of a song, and they would fall in love with another star tomorrow because of another song. They didn't love her, Jing Lu, as a person, they just loved the things they wanted to love.

But now, Jing Lu sincerely hopes that she will have the chance to hear these words again after today. Even though she still feels that fans don't love her as a person, she hopes that they are alive.

“I don’t like to say it for the third time, even if you’re my favorite singer.”

The cold voice sounded again, and Jing Lu suddenly came back to her senses. Before she could react, she saw a huge sickle suddenly condensed in the sky above the gymnasium. There seemed to be a thick palm on the sickle, and the hand held the huge sickle and chopped it down fiercely.

"No!" Jing Lu shouted in fear, but she could do nothing but watch the huge sickle harvesting the souls of the audience. After one cut, although the souls in the field did not disappear, each one became more transparent, as if they would disappear at any time.

"Sing!"

"I'll sing, I'll sing." Jing Lu didn't dare to hesitate any longer and sat back in front of the piano.

The concert staff also lost their souls. There was no accompaniment at the concert, so Jing Lu could only sit back at the piano and sing by herself. Soon, the melodious singing sounded in the venue again.

While the Necromancer and Jing Lu were talking, Lin Yan was thinking about why the Necromancer kept Jing Lu. There were tens of thousands of people in the entire venue, why did he only keep Jing Lu and not extract her soul

As for the nonsense that the other party said about him being a fan, Lin Yan didn't believe it at all. How could a terrorist who planned to kill tens of thousands of people play such an idol fan game? He must have kept Jing Lu because he was useful.

Is it a necessary part of the ritual

Although Lin Xi knew about the soul sacrifice ceremony, she was not clear about the specific operation procedures, and the free information shared in the forum was not complete.

Damn it, the cell phone can’t be used at this time, otherwise she could check on the forum.

Lin Xi thought for a moment, and took advantage of the dim environment to slip into the backstage of the concert.

She changed her mind. She did not use Sadako's long hair to go out immediately because she just realized that if she went out, she would never be able to come back. And she just thought that even if she didn't go out, there was still a way to notify the outside world.

Also, she was safe because her soul was stabilized by the system, so as long as the system was there, this soul ritual could not hurt her. Therefore, she did not need to rush out.

Lin Yan quickly ran backstage and started looking for a computer. Yes, she wanted to find a computer to verify her guess. Why did the Blue Flame people deliberately seal the TV? There was only one reason, to prevent her, or more precisely, to prevent the space ability user who rescued Xu Feihang. Of course, it was impossible for the Blue Flame people to know that she was in the concert by chance. They did this to prevent someone from entering and leaving the concert through the TV.

So, if the other party just wants to prevent someone from entering the stadium through the TV, then the computer can still be used because the computer has a mouse.

Backstage, all the staff members had fainted on the ground. Some fell directly on the floor, and some lay on the table. Lin Yan didn't care about these people. She kept searching with her eyes and soon found a laptop on a desk.

She took the computer and tried to operate it a few times, and soon confirmed her guess that both the keyboard and the mouse could be used. As expected, as long as it was not a touch screen, it could be used.

Lin Yan subconsciously wanted to log into WeChat, but when she clicked it, she found that WeChat required scanning a QR code to log in, and she could not scan the QR code at all after the phone was locked.

What kind of crappy design is this? Can’t we just scan the QR code and log in with two accounts like □□

Lin Xi muttered inwardly while quickly logging into her email. She found the payroll sent to her by Assistant Tan in her email history. The payroll included the phone numbers of six groups of colleagues.

Lin Yan found a phone number, copied and pasted it, and sent it to Bao Ya, the makeup artist in the secret room of the Coffin Shop, using the logged-in Penguin. In fact, few people use Penguin now, but many of Bao Ya's COS groups are Penguin groups, and they are online 24 hours a day. So among Lin Yan's Penguin friends, the only one who can see this message the fastest is Bao Ya.

I hope Bao Ya is not following the drama at this time.

Perhaps the bad luck of "being able to meet Lan Yan at a concert" had already used up all her bad luck points, and Lin Xi soon received a reply from Bao Ya.

Bao Ya: [Didn’t you go to see Jing Lu’s concert? Why are you texting me? Whose phone number is this?]

Lin Yan didn't bother to explain, she just said: "Sister Xiaoya, my signal is not good here, I can't make a call, this person is my colleague, you call him and tell him I saw Lan Yan. It's very important, you call him right now, by the way, give him my Penguin ID. I can't log into WeChat."

Bao Ya: [Okay.]

Although Bao Ya felt strange, she could sense Lin Yan's anxiety between the lines, so she didn't ask any more questions and called the number Lin Yan gave her with her mobile phone on the spot.

Soon, the call was connected.

"Hello?"

"Mr. Yun?" Lin An gave Bao Ya the phone number of King Wu. Chen Chu was not there, Assistant Tan was in seclusion, and King of the Sea did not look very reliable. Qing Kong had never met him, so Lin An chose King Wu's phone number.

"Who are you?"

The man's voice was so cold. Bao Ya was keenly aware that the man opposite was difficult to get along with, so he stopped talking and said quickly: "Well, I'm Lin Yan's friend. Lin Yan asked me to tell you that she saw Lan Yan."

There was a sudden movement on the other end of the phone, as if something had fallen to the ground.

"What else?" asked the King of Wu calmly.

"She asked you to add her Penguin account because she couldn't log in with her WeChat account." As Bao Ya spoke, she began to feel strange. Why could she log in with her Penguin account but not with WeChat

"Penguin."

"Wait a minute, let me check." Bao Ya clicked on Lin Yan's Penguin account information and then reported a string of numbers. As soon as he finished speaking, the other party hung up the phone.

"How rude." Bao Ya couldn't help but complain, then replied to Lin Yan using Penguin.

Just as Lin Xi finished saying thank you, a friend request notification sounded on her computer, and she quickly clicked to approve it.

The name of the Penguin account used to add a friend contains the Chinese character "云", and one can tell at first glance that it is the dirty king Yun Yi.

After her friend passed the call, Lin Yan was about to tell others what she knew, but the King of Wu typed two words to her first: [Wait a moment.]

About five seconds later, another prompt popped up: Your friend cloud invites you to join six temporary groups.

It turned out that he was going to create a group, and Lin Yan decisively clicked to agree.

Entering the group chat, Lin Yan found that the group was quite full. Even Assistant Tan, who was in seclusion, and Chen Chu, who was at the border, were in the group. Could it be that this penguin group had already existed, but they just forgot to add her

Lin Xi immediately began to type rapidly, tapping away at the keyboard, typing out everything she knew all at once, focusing on describing the sickle and the enchantment cast upon the television.

Qingkong: [The sickle is the ideology of the ritual. Every time the sickle is swung, it will harvest a portion of the vitality. When all the vitality is harvested, the person inside will die.]

Lin Yan also guessed this: [Then you guys should think of a solution quickly.]

Assistant Tan: [I have already applied to the higher-ups, but every S-level psychic has a special mission, so it will take more than an hour for them to get here.]

Such a large-scale terrorist activity occurred in Jin City, and it was necessary to seek assistance from higher authorities to deal with it. The King of Wu had no choice but to call out Assistant Tan who was in seclusion.

Lin Yan was about to say that she could go out and bring the people over, but Qingkong said again: [It's useless. Even if the S-level psychic can arrive immediately, by the time he breaks the barrier, half of the people inside will be dead.]

Assistant Tan: [If we can save half, then that’s half.]

Qingkong: [The remaining people will go mad even if they don’t die. If they are harvested three times, their souls will be damaged and cannot be repaired.]

Lin Xi was horrified: [Is there no solution to this ritual?]

Qingkong: [Unless you can snatch the carrier of the ritual and replenish the soul within two hours after the soul is taken away. This kind of carrier is usually the magic weapon of the necromancer, but the necromancer who can hold a sacrifice for 10,000 people must be S-level. It is too difficult to snatch his carrier within two hours.]

King of Dirt: [And Blue Flame’s goal is to create panic. If the carrier cannot be taken away, they will most likely destroy it directly. No one can stop an S-level supernatural being from destroying a magical weapon. Moreover, there is an S-level barrier.]

Aquaman: [If it were me, I would destroy the carrier right when you are about to break through the barrier.]

Aquaman, which side are you from

Although she knew that Neptune was analyzing the situation objectively, Lin Xi was still deeply involved in his story.

Lin Yan: [Is there no way to snatch the soul from the other party during the ritual? For example, suck it over to our side?]

Aquaman: [Unless there is a necromancer of the same level who also arranges a ritual in the stadium.]

Qingkong: [No, this will only cause a person's soul to be pulled by two rituals at the same time, and die faster.]

Aquaman: [Then there is no other way, unless everyone is a superpower and is above level C, then we can barely stabilize the soul from being extracted.]

This can only happen in a large-scale sacrificial ceremony. If it is a one-on-one fight, even an A-level psychic may have his soul sucked away by a high-level necromancer.

Stabilize the soul? She didn't rely on supernatural powers to stabilize it, she relied on the system.

System, yes, system.

"I'm just a divination system." The system threw out a universal answer.

I don't believe you at all.

Lin Yan didn't believe it at all. After thinking for a while, she said, "I want to draw a lottery. I want to draw a prop that can counter the sacrificial ritual."

After she traded the High Priest's crown to the system last time, the system promised her that it would give her a more powerful item next time. Since then, Lin Yan has not drawn a prize again, so that she can use this condition to ask the system to give her a life-saving item when she is in danger. And now is the time.

"You can't specify props for the lottery. I can only give you the chance to choose one of two." The system paused, but did not refuse. Instead, it gave a choice.

It works indeed.

"Okay." Lin Xi agreed immediately.

Based on her understanding of the system, if the system didn't want to help, it could just prepare a bunch of props for her to draw at will. Anyway, as long as the props she drew were powerful, the system wouldn't break its promise. Being able to choose between the two was already a help from the system.

After Lin Yan agreed, the system panel twisted and a lottery wheel appeared. The lottery wheel spun rapidly, and the props on it flew out one by one. In the end, only two mosaic props were left for Lin Yan to choose.

The left one or the right one

Considering her luck value of -99, Lin Xi decisively took out the hairpin of the goddess of luck and pinned it on herself.

"Make a wish and draw the item you want." Lin Yan closed her eyes and made a wish.

[Ding, the wish level is too high and cannot be fulfilled.]

"…" How come the level of the prize is so high? Could it be that it is related to the system, so the card issuance and wishing function is not working, so I can't wish for things related to the system

Yes, it's a system bug that uses things given by the system. The system cannot make such a mistake.

So which one should we choose

Lin Xi looked up and caught a glimpse of the makeup mirror next to her out of the corner of her eye. In the mirror, a pink goddess hairpin was pinned on the right side of Lin Xi's hair.

Right. Almost without hesitation, Lin Xi chose right.

The hairpin of the goddess of luck should always be in the lucky direction at any time. Yes, Lin Yan is metaphysical, but the hairpin of the goddess of luck itself is a kind of metaphysics.

"Congratulations to the host, you have won item No. 008, the monk's wooden fish. Please go to the item column to check the product properties."

Lin Xi quickly opened the inventory and began to check the properties.

[Name: The monk's wooden fish.]

[Guide to use: This is a wooden fish of a high-ranking monk who has listened to the most profound Buddhist teachings in the world. Chanting the Buddha's name and striking it can purify all filth and help the soul find its home.]

[Tip: Only those who hear the Buddha's name can be purified.]

Let the soul find its home? Is it literal? Try it and you will know.

If there is any merit to this ritual, it is probably that there are enough victims, so many that the other party may not even notice if there is one more or one less.

Lin Yan held the wooden fish and quickly searched for a suitable experimental target backstage, then she saw a familiar figure.

Du Borong, the person who accompanied Jing Lu to the haunted house to tell fortunes.

Lin Yan squatted down and tapped the wooden fish lightly. After a light "tap" sound, Lin Yan whispered the Buddha's name: "Amitabha."

Lin Xi didn't dare to shout too loudly. She was afraid that if the wooden fish really worked, too many people would be awakened at once and the necromancer would notice it. So she only dared to wake up one person quietly. With a one in ten thousand chance, it was not easy for the necromancer to notice.

After a moment, the man on the ground suddenly uttered a sound.

Is it really useful?!

Du Borong opened his eyes dazedly. He first glanced at Lin Yan blankly, then quickly recognized her: "You are the one... What's going on?"

"Don't talk." Lin Yan used the clothes she had prepared to cover Du Borong's mouth and quickly explained, "You may not believe what I'm telling you now, but it's all true."

At that moment, Lin Xi once again recounted the story of the soul sacrifice ceremony.

"If you don't believe it, you can use your mobile phone right now to see if the touch screen is blocked. If you still don't believe it, you can look out the door to see if a large part of the audience has collapsed. If you still don't believe it..."

"I believe it." After absorbing this incredible information, Du Borong quickly calmed down. For some reason, he felt extremely calm at this moment, as if his soul was purified, and as if he could think rationally about everything.

"You believed it so easily?" Lin Xi felt a little uncomfortable.

"I looked you up after I came back from the amusement park. The internet says you're very effective." Du Borong said, "So... what can we do now?"

do what

"Wait a moment, I'll go ask my colleagues." Now that she had the props to snatch souls, she had to go to the group and discuss a solution with everyone.

Lin Xi returned to the computer. In the Penguin group, because Lin Xi did not reply to messages for a long time, everyone went from being anxious to accepting her death after @ing her countless times without receiving a response. It only took one minute.

Qingkong: [He hasn't replied to my message for such a long time, it's very likely that he's in trouble.]

King of Dirt: [That idiot, didn't he know he should run out first?]

Aquaman: [Even the TV is enchanted, so she can't get out. Oh, I'll notify Chen Chu.]

They didn't know the specific usage of Sadako's long hair, and seeing that Lin Xi couldn't get out of the stadium, they naturally thought that Lin Xi's space travel skills were blocked by the barrier.

Assistant Tan: [The law enforcement team has arrived outside the stadium, although it is useless.]

After that, no one in the group spoke, and it has been silent for about five minutes until now. And five minutes ago, Chen Chu, who was at the northern border of China and confronting an S-level earth-type ability user, suddenly received a call.

In a confrontation, Chen Chu would not distract himself by looking at his phone, as this would be too disrespectful to the enemy. But it was different when a phone call came in. During a mission, no one would call him unless it was urgent.

He glanced at his phone and saw that it was Aquaman who was calling.

"What's up?"

"Chen Chu, are there any people from Blue Flame on the border?" asked the King of the Sea.

"Yes, but it seems to be stalling for time." This earth-type supernatural being just stood at the border, just standing there, confronting him from a distance. Because the other party has not stepped into the territory of China, in principle Chen Chu cannot take the initiative to attack. So even if he knows that the other party is stalling for time, there is nothing he can do.

Moreover, he could not leave. Once he left, without an S-level psychic in charge, the other party could march straight in and bury the vein map anywhere. In this way, the two sides could only be in a stalemate.

"Their purpose is not to bury the vein map, their purpose is to hold a mass sacrifice." The Sea King said quickly, "In a concert of 10,000 people in Jin City, the one that Lin Yan attended today. Just now, Lin Yan lost contact."

When Chen Chu heard the word "lost contact", the wind at the border suddenly became silent for a moment.

"I understand." Chen Chu hung up the phone.

"What's wrong? Did you hear any bad news?" The psychic opposite, who was wearing a black robe and a blue flame badge on his chest, saw that Chen Chu looked strange and asked in English in a provocative tone.

"Your purpose is to offer sacrifice to 10,000 people?" Chen Chu asked back in English.

"We were discovered so soon? That guy Zhai even swore that you wouldn't notice until the end of the ceremony. For this reason, he used divination to select the audience a month in advance, but you still discovered it. Do you want to go back?" the other party asked with a smile.

"No." Chen Chu uttered a word softly, and suddenly a huge tornado blew from the sky, sweeping up all the sand and gravel on the ground and sweeping towards the Blue Flame members.
