Infinity Throne
Chapter 136 Hunting the Apostles (please vote for recommendation)
Yo?
It's Zhao Yulong.
Yi Lin looked at the flashing profile picture on the communication channel.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Yulong's efficiency was quite high.
but--
How could he know so quickly?
Is he also in Haiting City?
That shouldn't be the case, right?
As Yi Lin thought about it, she ignored Li Changge who was chirping at the side and opened the chat window with Zhao Yulong.
…
Zhao Yulong: Ahem.
Yi Lin:?
Zhao Yulong: I'm just asking casually. Just ask casually. Don't take it to heart. You probably haven’t read the forum, right?
Yi Lin: I haven’t watched it in the past two hours. What’s wrong?
Zhao Yulong: That’s good! Hey, there are a few things going on these days, you know, the work of the special team, but the team leader has given it to others to handle. Although it's a bit sudden to tell you now, your level...is not suitable for walking in this muddy water.
Yi Lin: Muddy water? Which trip?
Zhao Yulong: Something happened in Haiting City. Forget it, I’ll tell you later. You don’t need to pay attention to it for now. If your level reaches...
Yi Lin: I'm in Haiting City.
Zhao Yulong: Well, that’s good. Anyway, afterwards—huh?
Yi Lin: I'm in Haiting City.
Zhao Yulong: Did you make a typo?
Yi Lin: I'm in Haiting City.
Zhao Yulong: Surprised!
…
Toot toot—
Voice calls between apostles.
Beep.
Got connected.
Zhao Yulong's roar came across space through some supernatural power.
"What the hell? Why did your kid end up in Haiting City?"
Yi Lin smiled bitterly: "I originally just helped a guy, um, a friend, solve a small supernatural incident."
——Oh, the cake seller.
Zhao Yulong seemed to cover his forehead and shouted this.
Then.
"Have you received a mission? I'm talking about a real mission."
Yi Lin said calmly: "I got it."
After thinking about it, Yi Lin added: "I didn't expect that the 'Tower' could issue tasks in reality. This... is quite sudden."
What Yi Lin said was naturally false.
This is just Yi Lin's "rhetoric" to Zhao Yulong.
Zhao Yulong was silent for a moment, and then suddenly said in a mournful voice: "It's over, I feel like I can't save my phone again. If anything happens to you, I guess-"
Yi Lin: "?"
Zhao Yulong: "Ahem... In short, you are in a very dangerous situation now. This mission is a bit weird."
Yi Lin thought for a moment and nodded in agreement: "I do feel a little weird."
Yi Lin knew that there was a very small possibility that the "Tower" would issue a real-life mission to the apostle.
But in most cases, such weird real-life missions are issued when certain "abnormalities" in reality will cause great harm to existing human civilization or cause chaos.
From this point of view, it seems that Ta is competing with the "special group" for food.
However, there is still no clear explanation as to what the purpose of "Tower" is in releasing real-life tasks.
If you want to protect humanity...
It seems that the coming of the apocalypse cannot be explained.
In short, Yi Lin felt that something was fishy.
But for a while, he couldn't figure out why.
"Tower" went to great lengths to issue real-life missions, just to kill an... apostle named "Zhang Huichun"?
While Yi Lin was thinking.
Zhao Yulong sent another voice message.
"Since you have intervened in this matter, I will report it to the team leader later. At that time, after this 'abnormal incident' is dealt with, it will be recorded on your performance."
Performance?
When these words came out of Zhao Yulong's mouth, I always felt that there was something strange.
Zhao Yulong suddenly said quickly: "Hey, wait. There is something wrong with this matter. What kind of supernatural event did you say your friend had? How could he be involved in this matter?"
Hear the words.
Yi Lin recalled it.
He should have met Zhao Yulong at a later point in time, and he was not sure how powerful Zhao Yulong was now.
but--
For the "Special Group", the existence of possessed weapons should not be a secret.
So Yi Lin embellished it a little and explained briefly and concisely the fact that she accidentally discovered that Li Changge had an ownerless mother spirit on his back.
Yi Lin hid the fact that she knew about the "Masterless Spirit" in advance.
After all, under normal circumstances, based on his experience with Zhao Yulong's files, he shouldn't have known about the existence of the "Masterless Spirit".
The amount of information is a bit large.
Zhao Yulong was silent for three full minutes.
Then another voice message was sent.
"What the hell?"
"?"
"The legendary ownerless spirit is actually on the back of the international superstar Li Changge? Wait, it's actually a mother spirit? Real name envy... Ahem, no, the matter is very serious!"
"You probably don't know what a masterless spirit is..."
Barabara.
Zhao Yulong explained the origin of the "ownerless spirit" in a lengthy manner.
Yi Lin also cooperated and pretended to be suddenly enlightened.
"Well, alas...it's a bit troublesome now." After Zhao Yulong finished speaking, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh: "You should check the forum first and then talk about the most popular post at the moment."
forum?
Yi Lin closed the chat window.
Then the forum was opened.
The first thing that caught my eye was a post that was pinned to the highest position.
The post was made by an anonymous apostle.
…
【Shock! Unowned “spirit-possessed weapons” suddenly appear in Haiting City! 】
It was just a simple title, but a large number of apostles responded to the post below——
[Pink and cute newbie ask, what is a spirit-possessed weapon? 】
【Are you a fan? Tender? No pictures, no truth! 】
[I suspect someone is driving upstairs, but I have no evidence! 】
[Holy shit, is this really fake? Spirit-possessed weapon? That is a more advanced weapon than an epic weapon! Comparable to the golden legend! 】
[The spirit-possessed weapon is like a dragon-slaying sword in your hand, with one sword for nine hundred and ninety-nine times! 】
【Ah? Fishing stickers, identification completed! 】
【Lanzhou Shaobing. 】
【Shaobing+1】
【Shaobing+2】
[Shaobing +3, please arrange your formation downstairs. 】
[I would rather believe that I have it than that I don’t have it. At worst, I will waste my money on online tickets and treat it as a tourist! Pipi shrimp, let’s go! 】
[It is highly suspected that the author posted this to promote the development of tourism in Haiting City! Those who sit back and wait to be fooled will suffer misfortune. 】
【Share cakes upstairs? Does the prosperity of Haiting City still need apostles like us to promote it? Have you not woken up from your dream? 】
What follows is still a bunch of useless responses.
but--
At the end, someone suddenly replied anonymously.
【This is a trap! trap! trap! Second-level apostles must not come to Haiting City! This is a realistic mission! Forced reality mission! Once it fails...obliterate! ! ! 】
The anonymous apostle even posted the details of his mission.
The dazzling word "trap" stung everyone's eyes.
The word "obliterate" makes countless people tremble.
it turns out--
In reality, such a forcibly obliterated mission will be issued!
Many people haven’t even heard of “realistic missions.”
Yi Lin closed the forum silently.
Streamlined my thoughts.
Generally understood.
The last anonymous apostle to post a warning to others was posted half an hour ago.
That is, shortly after Yi Lin came into contact with the third corpse.
Rushing to Haiting City overnight?
It is estimated that the apostle who posted the message was just filled with a big sigh of relief.
"This matter has really become very troublesome..."
Yi Lin is very aware of the urinary nature of the apostles.
After this post was published, people who didn’t believe it went crazy on the post, but the real apostle who “would rather believe it” had already boarded the underground shuttle bus silently heading to Haiting City.
If this is true, making a fortune silently is the way to go.
There will be no water stickers coming out at all.
He won't come out to clarify that this is a rumor.
Of course, among the group of people who post fake posts, there are also some who deliberately post to confuse others in order to reduce competitors.
"hehe."
Yi Lin suddenly couldn't help laughing again.
When a group of apostles came to Haiting City and suddenly and inexplicably received a "mandatory real-life mission", only one person jumped out to post a warning to others.
This is in sharp contrast to the number of apostles posted before.
The meaning is actually very simple: I was tricked, so I kept silent to see if I could drag more people into the trap.
- The more, the better.
Even an apostle with a little bit of brain would feel something is wrong with this kind of task.
And, no matter what, if you just kill one apostle, the more people there are, the better.
There is no doubt about it.
Mentioned before.
The relationship between the apostles was extremely complicated.
It cannot be explained by simple hostility or companionship.
Generally speaking, if there is no deep hatred, apostles will not kill each other in the real world.
After all, the abilities among the apostles are many and complex, and various tools for turning the tables are endless. Without complete certainty or sufficient reasons, no apostle would provoke another apostle without any reason.
——Unless there is great certainty.
Coupled with interest disputes, it becomes even more difficult to say.
"No wonder Zhao Yulong would remind himself all night not to go to Haiting City."
"Is this mission restricted to only second-level apostles?"
"why is that?"
Yi Lin lowered her head.
Thinking silently.
Think about it all.
He knew very well that the power of the "Tower" had limited impact on reality.
There seems to be some "rules" to follow.
Even the tower cannot kill any apostle at will without "reason".
Of course, "Tower" has no wisdom or "emotions", and generally speaking, it will not target any apostle who is displeased.
unless--
No unless.
…
Yi Lin finished browsing the forum.
Contacted Zhao Yulong again.
——Voice calls between apostles.
"What? What do you think?"
Zhao Yulong said in a low voice.
"This matter is a bit complicated."
"It's very complicated! Moreover, this thing is very weird!"
Zhao Yulong said in a deep voice: "Let's not talk about the mother spirit on Li Changge's back."
For some reason, Yi Lin always felt that Zhao Yulong's tone was a little weird when he talked about "mother spirit".
Only Zhao Yulong continued: "Let me tell you something first. In the real-life mission you received, I know who the apostle named 'Zhang Huichun' is."
Yi Lin was slightly startled when he heard this.
But he didn't interrupt Zhao Yulong's words.
This is obviously extremely important information.
"Zhang Huichun, female, 26 years old, is a young doctor at a central hospital in a certain city."
"Of course, because she has never committed any crime in the real world, nor encountered her in the other world, and has not revealed her identity at all, we did not know that she was an apostle before the incident."
Yi Lin heard the hidden message in the words: "Before the accident?"
Zhao Yulong continued: "On the morning of September 5, she was found dead in her home. Because she lived alone, in the morning, her work unit found that she had not come to work and could not get through on the phone, so her friend asked her friend to go to Zhang Huichun's home to look for her. So it was almost noon when the body was discovered and sent to the morgue of the original unit."
"There were no wounds on the surface, and no strange traces were found at the place of death. It was initially determined that the cause of death was heart disease."
heart disease?
That is to say——
"Haha, you should have guessed, yes, my conclusion is that she probably died in the trial in the other world."
died?
Yi Lin frowned.
No words were spoken.
What Zhao Yulong said next should be the focus.
Zhao Yulong suddenly laughed, and his tone became a bit gloomy for no reason: "You can't guess what happened next. Just that night, in the hospital where Zhang Huichun's body was located, a security guard died. The cause of death was... The cervical vertebrae were broken, and only one side of the neck was bruised. Someone had broken his neck with one hand."
Yi Lin smiled slightly: "Why do I feel that you are telling a scary story? If I guess correctly, what you are going to say next...is that Zhang Huichun came back from the dead and killed the security guard, right?"
"!"
Zhao Yulong was shocked.
He didn't expect Yi Lin to really guess the ending.
Hey, his little story has been laid out for a long time!
You guessed the ending so easily after hearing the beginning, which is a bit embarrassing, brother!
"How did you guess that?"
"You still need to guess? You have already laid out the tone of your thriller story. Isn't the most terrifying ending Zhang Huichun coming back from the dead and killing people violently? What other ending could there be other than this?"
But even though Yi Lin had guessed this outcome, in fact, when he reasonably guessed the ending of this little story, he couldn't help but feel shocked.
At the same time, many speculations emerged in my mind involuntarily.
Apostles resurrected from the dead?
Some kind of skill?
Or is it some kind of prop that takes effect after death?
Or is it someone else pretending to be Zhang Huichun?
It wasn't actually Zhang Huichun who died at the beginning?
Various possibilities were intertwined in Yilin's mind.
Zhao Yulong was a little depressed, but he continued, after all, business was more important.
"Zhang Huichun didn't know why but didn't destroy the hospital's surveillance video."
"We pulled out all the videos afterwards and found that Zhang Huichun did get up from the freezing chamber on his own, then walked through the corridor and seemed to have a few words with the dead security guard, and then turned back and suddenly broke the security guard's neck. .”
"What happens next?"
"Then? Then it was gone! After Zhang Huichun killed the security guard, he left the hospital. Uh, by the way, you should know very well that the surveillance equipment has some blind spots. We never saw Zhang Huichun exposed on the camera again. noodle."
Yi Lin's eyes twitched slightly, but she didn't deny it.
He is indeed very clear about the blind spots of surveillance equipment.
"And, not only that."
Zhao Yulong's tone became a little heavier: "After that night, we received reports of murders one after another from all over the country... We suspect that Zhang Huichun was hunting the apostles after his 'resurrection'."
"!"
"Of course, some homicide cases may appear to be 'normal' on the surface, so no relevant data has been collected yet, but those whose bodies died in 'abnormal' ways are all handled by our 'special team'."
"The 'Z5 Council' takes this matter very seriously."
"Although the methods of death in these murder cases are somewhat different, we have initially confirmed that at least four apostles died in Zhang Huichun's hands, and the route she took to hunt down the apostles..."
Yi Lin silently said the next words: "Haiting City."
"That's right, if you add Li Changge's mother spirit, tsk tsk... ahem, in this case, it stands to reason that at least 5 apostles died in her hands."
--At least.
In other words, there could be more.
"Anyway!"
Zhao Yulong put aside the distracting thoughts related to the mother spirit and became serious: "This matter is very complicated, very complicated! If it is not handled well, it may cause a very serious accident! In the past ten years, since the 'Special Group' Since its founding, such blatant and purposeless hunting of apostles has rarely occurred!”
"If I guess correctly, there may be two reasons why the real-life mission is triggered. First, Zhang Huichun is still in Haiting City. Second, as an apostle, you are in the city where Zhang Huichun is located, at close range. Touched the body of the deceased apostle.”
"Of course, this is just my speculation. Anyway, since you have been forced to take over the task, you can't run away."
Yi Lin remained silent.
What Zhao Yulong said is... the truth.
Yi Lin is just a human, not a god.
Even if everything was carefully considered, the supernatural incident that Li Changge encountered could not have been expected, but it happened to be one of the series of incidents.
He was accidentally involved in this whirlpool.
but--
What makes Yi Lin feel strange is this.
In his memory, there was no such serious incident of hunting down the apostles in the trajectory of "that future".
Or……
He had not yet become an apostle at that time, so he was not qualified to know?
Has it been hidden?
Yi Lin can no longer return to "that future", and many speculations cannot be confirmed one by one.
Now, the most important thing is to solve this incident.
"Oh, by the way! I'm still investigating this matter elsewhere, and I'll let you know immediately if there's any news! Also, a senior member of the 'Special Group' has arrived in Haiting City, and you should have a chance to meet him by then. "
After speaking, Zhao Yulong hurriedly cut off his voice.
It seemed that he was really distressed by the "Apostle Hunting" incident.
Originally, Yi Lin wanted Zhao Yulong to send over the surveillance video of Zhang Huichun in the hospital.
--Did not have time.
Forget it, talk about it later.
As for Zhang Huichun's information, the non-confidential parts should be searchable online.
At the very least, the name, age, gender and photos can still be found.
As for the others... they have probably been suppressed by the special group.
"Exceptions" are all handled by a special group.
After all, Zhang Huichun was a doctor in an official hospital "before his death".
There's still time left——
72 hours!
Seems plenty.
But it is not easy to find an apostle among the vast crowd of people in Haiting City.
At the very least, Yi Lin really wanted to hide, and he believed that few people could catch him out.
Someone who can hunt down the apostles all the way to Haiting City is definitely not easy to deal with.
It begins with Zhang Huichun's resurrection from the dead.
This matter is complicated.
It won't be possible to figure it out in a short while.
But what Yilin lacks most now is time.
Moreover, if the guess is correct, the entire Haiting City will become the first gathering of apostles that Yi Lin has witnessed since her rebirth!
"Headache."
Yi Lin rubbed her temples and frowned.
Li Changge saw that Yi Lin seemed to have finished her work and looked over eagerly.
Li Changge was able to receive the mission. In other words, he had reached at least level 10, a second-level apostle.
"I suggest you read the forum first."
Yi Lin chuckled.
Li Changge was confused at first.
"Forum? What does the forum have to do with it? Well, I'm going?! What the hell???"
Li Changge muttered and opened the forum to take a look.
One minute later.
Li Changge's face turned red at first, then gradually turned blue, and finally turned purple.
"Yo?"
Yi Lin smiled.
The special effects behind Li Changge have actually changed.
A crematorium.
There are still cherry blossoms floating all around.
Ah, it seems that Li Changge wants to be cremated amidst the cherry blossoms.
After 30,000 words of preparation, this carefully designed reality chapter is finally on the right track. Don’t forget to vote! If God had not given birth to him, Li Changge, he would have been forced to do it forever as long as the night! I hope that your grandfather’s charm will continue to increase!
