Seeing this scene, Robb finally breathed a sigh of relief and turned his attention to his Book of Containment.
When the female corpse appeared for the second time, although he did not kill it personally, he still gained 10 containment points after Fiona took action.
This proves the feasibility of finding helpers to solve supernatural incidents together.
Robb looked at [Physique] and [Spiritual] on his personal page.
When the war comes, it is more effective to strengthen the body than to improve the pitiful spirituality.
He remembered the scene where the female corpse slapped him away.
Robb invested 10 containment points into his body.
[Physique: 1.2]
Compared with the inconspicuousness when his spirituality improved, at this moment, Robb felt a warm current flowing through his body. His arms were exerting force, and his muscle lines seemed to be more obvious.
It would be nice if there were more containment sites.
At that time, no matter how fierce the female corpse screams, I can use physical means to suppress it severely.
With this thought in his mind, Robb looked longingly at the white clouds outside the window.
Looking forward to a successful opening this time.
Chapter 19 Chapter 19 Alpena County
More than two hours later, Alpena Regional Airport.
The small airport, which primarily serves the local community and business travelers, welcomed a small business aircraft.
During the crew farewell, Robb and Madison, carrying backpacks with gold arms, left the plane. After walking out of the airport, they rented a car and drove to downtown Alpena under the guidance of the navigation system.
About ten minutes passed, and Rob and Rob arrived at their destination successfully.
The total population of Alpena County is only 20,000 to 30,000. Excluding the towns, the population of the city center is only 10,000 (in the administrative division of the United States, a county is the upper level of a city).
Wandering here, you can basically reach the end in just a few steps.
Although Fiona divined the location of the evil spirit with the golden arm, the specific location was unclear due to the great distance, and Robb and the two still needed to investigate.
Because of the early departure, there was still some time before noon.
In order to get rid of the evil spirit as soon as possible to avoid another curse at night, Robb and his wife did not have time to visit this small town with a different style from New Orleans, so they acted quickly.
Robb came to a convenience store and first bought a local map. During the checkout, while chatting with the boss, he inadvertently asked:
"Boss, do you have any weird legends here?"
"Legend? The kind that scares children?"
The chubby middle-aged male boss glanced at Robb and Madison beside him.
Just thinking that this was another pair of lovers who came to the countryside to have fun, he chuckled and said:
"Murderers, cults, forest ghosts, aliens... no matter which country town you go to, they can tell you horror stories about similar experiences."
The boss deliberately added, "But sometimes it may not be fake. Be careful, young people like you who come from big cities, have tender skin and tender flesh, and good looks are often the primary targets of those evil entities."
Madison, who was looking through the products in the store out of boredom, said disdainfully: "Let them come, I promise to twist them into a ball and kick them like a ball."
"Your girlfriend? She's very hot!" When the boss heard this, he made a pun in surprise and said to Robb.
Robb smiled but didn't answer.
Then he asked: "Besides these familiar legends, are there any other novel stories? For example, I once heard someone say that there is a one-armed one here..."
"enough!"
Before Robb could finish speaking, he was loudly interrupted by his boss.
His face suddenly turned ugly and he said: "If you want to continue to enjoy a good time with your girlfriend, don't ask about this anymore. If I were you, just drive around here a few times and drink a few local drinks. Good wine, buy some local handicrafts, even go to a deserted corner and leave after a game, don’t play some adventurous games to death.”
Robb's eyes moved, and he wanted to ask something else, but the boss had already sent the guest away forcefully.
Taking the map to the street, Robb looked at Madison and said: "It seems that there is indeed a problem here. The existence of the female corpse, or the evil spirit, has affected the locals and even made them afraid."
Madison said: "This shows that we are in the right place."
Robb frowned a little and said: "Just looking at the boss's attitude, I can tell that the locals seem unwilling to tell the truth."
"Don't worry, not everyone will keep secrets. Let's look at mine next." Madison said confidently.
"What do you think? How to do it?" Robb asked curiously.
Madison pointed at the map in Robb's hand:
"First, you have to help me find the location of the downtown bar."
…
Colorful lights flashed and tense metal music echoed.
Although it was still daytime, when Robb and Madison arrived at the nearest bar in the city center, they still saw many men and women blooming inside.
"Pretty average."
Madison, who was at home here, first reviewed the bar, then pointed at a group of young people not far away, raised his eyebrows at Robb confidently and said:
"Ten minutes. I can even ask them to tell who these guys are hiding from for the first time, let alone others."
When Robb heard this, he immediately extended his hand in a "please" gesture.
So, Madison came to a group of young people and said hello:
"Hey boys, is there any drink in here?"
A group of young people were stunned for a moment, then looked straight at Madison.
As a Hollywood movie star, Madison is one of the best in terms of dress and appearance.
How can these young people who can't get into college, spend most of their lives in the countryside, and have only a little vision withstand it.
Soon, Madison easily joined in, and the request for free drinks was unanimously approved.
"We are not little boys!" Some of the young people said impatiently.
"Really? But I see how you all still look like little birds that haven't shed their feathers."
Madison's words immediately made all the young people angry.
So, when faced with Madison’s next “prove your question”, everyone rushed to answer.
This included the ten-minute deadline that Madison had just given to Robb.
After giving Robb a "how are you" look not far away, and with the conversation going so smoothly, Madison naturally asked questions about the golden arm.
As soon as these words came out, the young people who had already drank so much in a short period of time, and their mouths were full of trains, were suddenly stunned.
Fortunately, a young man named Mike slapped the table at this time and said disdainfully: "There's nothing bad to say, isn't it just a ghost story? Those old guys were scared, but that doesn't mean I can. They are just a bunch of cowards."
Hearing this, Madison immediately looked directly at Mike with appreciative eyes.
While making Mike very happy, he quickly told the ghost story he knew about the golden arm.
Seeing that the beautiful woman was actually attracted to Mike, the other young men were unwilling to give up and ignored their original fears. Like peacocks opening their tails to the opposite sex, they rushed to talk to each other.
This is how the origin of the golden arm unfolds.
The protagonist of the story, a woman named Heather, was once the most beautiful girl in Alpena County.
She has a doting husband.
Although she spends money lavishly, her husband still has no complaints.
When the two were living a happy life, an accident suddenly happened.
In a logging accident, Heather lost her right arm.
This is unacceptable to Heather, who loves beauty.
At her begging, her husband built a golden arm for her through mortgages and loans.
Even though she was suffering from life-threatening pulmonary disease, Heather was unwilling to remove the golden arm. Finally, before she died, she asked her husband to bury the golden arm with her.
The husband agreed.
However, the good times did not last long. Under pressure from huge debts, the repentant husband dug into his wife's grave and took out the golden arm.
"result……"
Having said this, Mike drank a glass of wine and said in an excitable tone on purpose,
"The neighbors who discovered something was wrong the next day came to the husband's house and were horrified to find that he was dead and lying on the bed with his long-dead wife who was buried in the coffin, and the golden arm happened to be between them."
Chapter 20 Chapter 20 Pentagon Agent
"This is an outdated story."
Seemingly dissatisfied with Mike attracting too much Madison's attention, a companion shouted loudly at this time.
When Madison looked over, he continued excitedly: "The fearful neighbors re-buried the couple, including the golden arm, in the soil. They had been living in peace all these years. But a group of tomb robbers came some time ago. , stole the golden arm in the coffin again, and now there are rumors that Heather’s evil spirit keeps wandering and roaring at night.”
"Yes! I heard that the locals have been hearing heavy footsteps and terrible roars outside at night."
"Many hunting dogs and poultry were disemboweled and all their internal organs were eaten."
"Not only that, several people went out to investigate at night and never came back."
"It's no use asking a priest to exorcise the devil."
"..."
People are naturally curious about supernatural and mysterious things.
If everyone was still apprehensive at the beginning, now, under the stimulation of alcohol, beauty, and crowds of people, they are now talking openly.
"Hmph! What kind of evil spirits, murderers. Only those old people who follow the wind and rain believe it. What age is it? Even if a demon comes, I can kill it with one shot."
"Whoever has the guts to come with me and see for himself, whether it's exposing lies or catching the so-called evil spirits, everyone will be a hero in the county!"
Seeing that Madison's eyes were attracted by others, Mike, who was in desperate need of a chance to show off, slapped the table and said boldly.
The other people who had drunk a lot excitedly agreed under the stimulation of Mike:
"Just go! Anyone who doesn't go is a coward!"
"We are the most talented people in the county, so of course we want to go!"
"Hehe, I wonder how it feels after the most beautiful Heather turned into an evil spirit?"
"..."
If no one stops them, these brave young people will definitely commit suicide one by one like in a Hollywood horror movie.
Madison, who was far away from a young man who wanted to defeat the evil spirit, did not pay attention to the rhetoric of these people. She had learned a lot of news and asked again:
"Where do the rumors of evil spirits come from?"
"Greentown, down in Alpena County. Heather is buried there," one person answered.
Another person suddenly pointed to a middle-aged black man not far away with drunken eyes and said: "That guy used to be a long-term employee of Heather's husband. He knows better."
"Thank you." Madison turned to look at the black people, and then waved goodbye to a group of young people who had no value.
"Don't go! It's still early, come play with us again. I can prove to you that I'm really big!"
Seeing that Madison was about to leave, Mike, who smelled of alcohol, quickly stood up and stopped him. He reluctantly stretched out his hand to force this beauty to stay.
Madison made a vague wave with his palm, and Mike suddenly stumbled and his whole face hit the floor, causing his head to bleed immediately.
When other companions hurriedly lifted it up.
Madison stood up without anyone to stop him, and Shi Shiran asked:
"By the way, I heard that Heather was the most beautiful girl here back then. So is she as beautiful as me?"
"No." A person who had seen Heather before raised his head and said blankly.
"That's good."
