Monsters Will Die if They Are Killed
Chapter 42 The Innocent and the Monster
The Hongcheng 719 major chain homicide and dismemberment case, the seventh deceased who has been discovered so far has appeared.
Next to the latest crime scene by Chigu Beach, the mutilated corpse was sent to the ambulance, and the police who rushed over took over the control of the scene and blocked the surrounding passages.
Zhang Fucheng looked around worriedly at the busy on-site survey personnel.
"It's too popular, it's blowing away the aura trajectory... The aura trajectory at the scene of the previous crimes is so thin that it's impossible to see where it leads."
He also knew that it was impossible to prevent the police from investigating the scene, and there was no way to prevent passers-by from passing by during the day... Generally speaking, Professor Zhang knew that it was mainly because of his lack of academic skills, coupled with the fact that his aura had not yet recovered, and he was very academic. It is indeed difficult to apply the law.
Through the previous detection of the remains of the victims and the traces of the scene, Zhang Fucheng can roughly judge that the monster should not feed on flesh and blood, it is of the wood type, can pass water, and its size should not be small - because the survey team The police officers found huge climbing marks on the concrete guardrail by the river. Regardless of body size, its body width is at least half a meter, at least much wider than a person's shoulder width.
water ghost? Demonizing water spiders? Murloc?
Moreover, none of the victims showed any signs of resistance, so the possibility of the other party possessing some kind of supernatural power cannot be denied.
To be honest, Zhang Fucheng has a very uneasy guess in his mind, that is, that unknown monster has actually existed for a long time, but it has been living in a secret place before, until recently, either for advancement, or for raising The offspring, that's why they hunt around. Hunting has the potential to replenish the spiritual organs in the human body to supplement their own consumption, or to prepare for savings.
"If we slow down a step, then what we have to face is probably an advanced monster, or a big monster with God knows how many little monsters."
And none of this is even funny.
The situation was not optimistic, and there was no time to procrastinate. Zhang Fucheng also began to cast spells when the survey patrols were almost finished, left the scene, and stopped disturbing the surrounding aura.
It is also holding a talisman, and it is ignited with thunder out of thin air. Professor Zhang closes his eyes and opens his eyes. With the power of the flashing talisman, he opens the Yin-Yang Vision and looks around at the surrounding spirits.
Due to the insufficient concentration of aura in the surrounding area, the effect of this talisman spell is not high, and the spiritual vision is very blurred. After a while of careful observation, Zhang Fucheng found a faint and fuzzy brown track on the ground, with a sweet and dangerous smell.
If it was a generation with abundant aura, no talisman would be used at all, and any trained transcendent would be able to see spiritually, but in the final analysis, the world has not yet opened, so what...
"The spirit of the wood attribute leads to Ganshui... Wood spirit water ghost? Other monsters who are familiar with water? Or are they just innocent demons who don't drown?"
The situation is complicated and difficult to analyze, but anyway, the opponent's strength, this dangerous feeling...
Professor Zhang frowned and thought for a while, then turned his head and said to the patrols behind him: "We need ships and speedboats—the monster hides in the water. We may find its lair along its trajectory!"
"Remember to equip weapons. I can't find the origin of this monster, and it moves extremely fast, and its strength may be beyond imagination... Yes, heavy weapons. Apply for armed patrol support. Think of it as hunting a dinosaur."
And at the time when the relevant professional professors of Zhengyi Academy and a group of police officers were struggling to search for the track of the monster on the Ganjiang River and search for its lair.
However, Su Zhou had already arrived at a sewer along an unusually obvious path of spiritual energy.
Hongcheng's sewer system has always been criticized by people. It has been raining for hundreds of years, and all parts of the city have been flooded. In recent years, the whole country has carried out large-scale urban water system rectification, and all the state-level capital cities in Zhengguo The underground system of the city has been repaired, and this has ended the phenomenon of ferrying in the city that attracts complaints every year.
The track Su Zhou pursued all the way into the sewage intercepting culvert in the depths of the Fuhe River—through the river water, it can be seen that there has been a big hole in this section of the sewage intercepting culvert. It seems that the demon enters and exits the sewer and waters from here between.
"It's not the time to worry about whether it's dirty or not." Holding a gun, Su Zhou distinguished the distribution of the surrounding sewers, then carefully chose a section of unmanned street, and directly opened the manhole cover to enter it.
The sewers are cold and damp—at least compared to the ground in Hongcheng. Jumping directly down the shaft, Su Zhou landed at the bottom of the shaft, touching the solid concrete floor.
There was no light in the ground. Although Su Zhou had a small flashlight, he didn't want to scare the snakes. He focused a little. He turned on the infrared vision. After a delay, he saw a thermal vision scene processed by the brain.
"Well, I can see the trajectory of spiritual power."
Obviously, the surrounding sewers are undoubtedly the lairs of demons. With just a slight sweep, Su Zhou can see dense brown aura trails. They are entangled and even silted up like knots, like road signs. obvious.
The darker and more obvious the color, the more demons are active there.
Following these aura clusters, Su Zhou walked silently along the long cement road on both sides of the sewer, and soon he arrived at a fork in the road, where the sewage and filth from three directions converged, and then led to the sewage in the distance pipeline.
"Strange, why is it unexpectedly not dirty or smelly here?"
After Su Zhou entered the sewer, he subconsciously held his breath, but even a perfect body couldn't stop breathing completely. Just now, he took a breath with a stinky face, but unexpectedly he didn't feel the common pollution. Stink.
Afterwards, Su Zhou took a closer look, only to find that the water flow in the channel was unexpectedly not very dirty, and there were even fish and shrimp wandering in it.
"It's not right."
Things were abnormal, and there were demons haunting him, so Su Zhou began to be vigilant about this abnormality.
After thinking about it, he didn't care whether he would disturb the monsters in the distance for the time being, so he directly picked up the miniature flashlight to illuminate the surroundings.
Then, he saw that there was a strange growth growing on the edge of the sewer, and even on both sides and bottom of the water pipe.
It looked like black moss, but when Su Zhou took off a small piece, he was surprised to find that it had a woody root system—and this rooted 'moss' seemed to be the source of purifying sewage. Although there is no light in it, the essence should be a special kind of aura recovery product different from normal moss, which can quickly decompose and purify dirt and reproduce itself.
The moss is very thick, about three to four centimeters thick on average, and the moss has large areas of gnawing marks, which seems to be the food of some kind of creature.
Among them, there were many screeching bugs shuttling among them. These bugs were larger than their counterparts on the ground, and they fled quickly when Su Zhou approached.
Looking at the surrounding environment, this immediately made him have some guesses in his mind.
"The wet environment of the sewer... Could it be that unknown demon, a large lizard in essence? Or some kind of insect?"
Su Zhou grabbed a small bug and smelled it—it was a sweet and fishy smell similar to demons. But this is rather puzzling.
"But why is the breath like a plant?"
With this doubt, Su Zhou continued to move forward - soon, he arrived at a sewer railing, where the black moss was so dense that it even blocked most of the railing, forming an arched black bag, which seemed to have life Generally, it is rising and shrinking, and even the sound of 'wheezing' breathing can be heard.
And right here, Su Zhou could smell an unusual stench...and this stench was no stranger to him who was born in a family of patrolling doctors.
He frowned tightly, feeling a bad premonition in his heart, but he still had to take action. Su Zhou picked up the barrel of the gun and pierced it straight into the sac. After it leaked a large amount of poisonous gas, he picked up the moss on the surface.
"really."
Seeing the contents, Su Zhou's eyes were serious, his five fingers tightened subconsciously, and a trace of anger flashed across his face. But in the end, he retracted his spear and sighed softly: "Rest in peace, innocent."
Because what appeared in front of the young man were several swollen and rotten corpses piled up together.
From the hollow eye sockets of the corpse, a black centipede crawled out hastily and fell into the water.
like tears.
These bodies should be some recent missing people. It seems to be used as a medium for black moss.
It can be seen that there are many insects wriggling in the corpse, and the gas produced by their movement and decay of the corpse caused the sac to rise and fall as if it was alive.
Around the black moss mass, bugs, mosses, and all kinds of strange slime fungi have formed a small weird ecosystem, and the surrounding area is full of unusual weird plants and sticky creatures like snot.
This kind of growth seems to be corrosive, and it can be seen that the sewer railings have been corroded. If it continues, it will take a few weeks to completely rot.
"There is a spiritual plant that is transforming into a spiritual thing."
When Yala spoke for the first time, her tail pointed to a string of deep purple fungi growing beside the corpse, and it leisurely said: "If this fungus continues to absorb resentment and filth to grow, it will be called 'Bone Corrosion Black Mushroom', which can be extracted The extraordinary strong acid that can erode bones and rust iron in an instant and the poison that can seal the throat when it sees blood also contain a huge amount of yin wood."
"Speaking of which, the black moss absorbs the aura of dirt and transforms it into nutrients for spiritual plants. I didn't expect the demon to grow vegetables for food."
"Um……"
Su Zhou took a cursory look, but he didn't care about it. He hummed, but frowned, staring at the decayed bones and the insects that were moving away from him.
After a while, he stretched out his hand and moved the entangled corpses soaked in water to the cement road on the side of the sewer.
Su Zhou gently separated the corpses, trying not to damage the bones. After placing them one by one, he then tried his best to push away the black moss on the corpses to prevent them from being corroded by the attached organisms.
——Although it feels greasy and disgusting to the touch, although it exudes a rotten stench, although the flesh and blood of the corpse are all rotten into mud, falling and separating from the bones bit by bit, secreting poisonous gas.
But they were all human beings.
innocent victims.
Their souls are gone, and their bones demand final respect.
After doing all this, Su Zhou responded softly to Yala and said, "The sewer actually has spiritual energy? I have been looking at the ground for so long, but I haven't found a single spiritual plant."
"Haha, Su Zhou, do you think the sewer is closer to the leylines, or the ground is closer?"
At this moment, Yala was chuckling, and the snake spirit looked around, as if it could see through the entire city's underground water system, and said calmly: "It seems that your country has been laid out for a long time—look, this one The entire sewer system, the city's power supply system, as well as network optical cables, signal base stations and subway tunnels."
"So much electricity, so much water, so much flowing energy and potential, and the information that is confined in the light, spreads the nodes composed of spirit clusters in the electromagnetic... This is a kind of man-made leylines, man-made Lingmai!"
"I see!"
Hearing this, Su Zhou was a little stunned. He finally understood why Hongcheng's underground system, which had not been repaired for more than ten years, was properly completed within two years after the central government issued an order: "So, the demon is Was it born because of this special environment?"
But after saying these words, the young man was taken aback for a moment, he turned his head, his eyes were turning blue and purple, and looked into the distance.
He stared at the huge aura that was changing rapidly in the corridor in the distance, approaching rapidly with rumbling echoes.
—Here we come, so fast!
"No, you got the causal relationship wrong—it was the demon that was about to be born, so you chose this appropriate spirit vein to manifest."
At this time, Yala's voice sounded. While answering Su Zhou's question, it also had an intriguing smile: "Su Zhou, have you seen it? Then get ready to fight, my covenanter...that's right." , this is your first encounter with a 'monster' other than a 'human'."
"This is the first hasty and sudden 'fight to the death', will you fight it and win it, or will you run away?"
"Needless to say, Yara."
The response was the erected gun barrel!
Su Zhou clenched the seven-foot spear in his hand, and pointed the tip flat to the front. His tone was calm, with hidden anger: "It doesn't matter if it's a human or a monster."
"Anyone who does evil, I will kill!"
