With the power of AI, you become a giant in the magic world!

The other side.

Yu Wusi is sorting out various clues about the origin of the demon sect in the magistrate's office.

He can become the evil killer not only because of his family background, but also because he has some abilities.

"Three months ago, there were disappearances around Diojia Village. This shows that something happened in Diojia Village earlier.

Considering that most of the people passing through Gaojia Village were traveling businessmen who went missing and would not be discovered for a short period of time, it should have taken a long time before the disappearance was noticed.

Therefore, it can be deduced that the people who originated from the Demon Cult appeared near Gaoguan County four months ago.

The people who arrived in Gaoguan County from the outside world at this time and have stayed here may be believers of the Origin Demon Cult..."

"Gu Siwen, Zhu Yanjing, Wu Hansong, Lin Huizhou, Jia Yuexun..."

Ordinary people in Daqian rarely move around frequently, so there are not many people coming from other counties every month. After Yu Wusi reviewed the investigation records that the government officials had visited in the past few days, he drew up a list.

There are more than a dozen people above who arrived in Gaoguan County four months ago and have stayed here ever since.

Of course, they are not necessarily cultists, because it is possible that the Origin Cult has been dormant for a long time and only started its activities four months ago. This is just a possibility that Yu Wusi deduced.

Yu Wusi also summarized a general range from the recent records of a large number of missing people in the county.

"This more dangerous task will be handed over to that Gu Xia tomorrow. The family asked me to find a way to deal with him, so I have to do something."

Yu Wusi didn't necessarily want to kill Gu Xia. He just arranged some high-risk tasks and had an explanation with his family.

His own interests are the greatest, so when he is short of manpower and needs Gu Xia, he will also offer benefits to win people's hearts.

Yu Wusi once chatted with Yu Chen, who said that Gu Xia had a weird personality and should not be underestimated.

But after many days of observation, he thought he was just an ordinary newcomer. Sure enough, today I only used some small conveniences to successfully recruit him.

"I think Yuchen didn't want to admit that he lost, so he said it on purpose. Ha! If I had a first-class talent, I could definitely take his place!"

After taking a sip of tea, Yu Wusi continued to work at the desk, trying to find some clues about the Origin Sect. He was greedy, but he still had a good work attitude.

Time soon came to the second day.

As Qian Danggui said, Gu Xia was sent to search for traces of the Origin Cult near the Songnan neighborhood where there were the most cases of disappearances and monster attacks.

…

In the morning, Gu Xia led a group of patrolmen on the streets to inquire and investigate door to door.

I have heard a lot of rumors about the origin of the religion, but there are no clues about the origin of the religion. Some even framed the neighbor as a cultist.

Until the afternoon.

Gu Xia said to the tired and timid detectives behind him.

"You have been busy waiting for a long time. Go back first, I will investigate alone for a while."

"Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Gu!"

Several people heard that they had received an amnesty. There had been various rumors in the county recently, and many people were missing. They were just ordinary people, so naturally they were frightened. They just wanted to stay in a safer county government office every day.

After everyone dispersed, Gu Xia continued to move forward alone.

If we really encountered something, not only would those detectives not be able to be of any help, they might even get in the way, so we let them go.

Soon Gu Xia came to a familiar place.

It was the dilapidated house that he followed Cui Luer's soul to.

The chains that trapped Gu Xia's soul into a strange world to survive the calamity stretched out from this broken house.

He stepped forward and pushed.

squeak, squeak

The old wooden door was opened.

Gu Xia walked in and saw that there were spider webs everywhere in the beams and corners of the house, and the light on the roof caused weeds to grow on the ground.

Most of the furniture in the room is rotten and covered with a thick layer of dust. It is estimated that it has been unoccupied for many years and has no popularity.

But the Soul Cultivation Heavenly Tribulation would not choose this place as the entrance to the Heavenly Tribulation Domain for no reason. There is probably something special about this.

Gu Xia's soul power unfolded and let the AI ​​start scanning this place.

Soon the stars returned to a three-dimensional view.

He took a look: "Is the ground empty?"

He took out a short spear from the storage bag and inserted it into the ground to explore, and found a layer of stone slabs nearly three feet deep underground.

With another thrust, the short spear penetrated the stone slab, and sure enough, there was a hidden space underneath.

Then Gu Xia used a short spear to poke a hole in the ground like a stamp, and then stepped on it with the strength of a Xuanliu warrior.

boom! !

The ground collapsed, leaving a hole about three feet in diameter.

He held his breath and jumped down.

"Is this a corridor?"

Gu Xia originally thought it was a basement below, but when he saw it, it turned out to be a corridor with torches on the walls on both sides.

Apparently someone was here not long ago.

Then Xingchen prompted.

"The concentration of blood demon profound energy in the air has increased significantly."

Gu Xia thought to herself: "Is this place related to the origin of the Demonic Cult?"

Just in case, he assembled the short spear into a long spear, unfolded the soul force field, and carefully walked forward along the corridor.

The corridor is not long, and you can see the exit at the end after walking a few dozen steps.

"…crying…crying…high…xi…"

Gu Xia faintly heard an incomprehensible singing sound. The closer he got, the clearer the syllables became, but he couldn't understand what was being sung at all. It seemed to be singing in another language.

"Spare me! Spare me! Ah!"

Cries, begging for mercy and screams could also be heard.

Gu Xia continued to move forward vigilantly, while lowering his steps and advancing softly.

Outside the exit, figures flickered on the wall.

Gu Xia cautiously stuck his head out.

At the end of the corridor is an underground space about 20 meters long and wide, and 40 to 50 meters high.

The exit is just above the space.

Gu Xia glanced down.

"What exactly is that blood pool?"

I saw a blood pool in the middle of the bottom of the underground space, the same as the one in the valley of Dijia Village, with flags inserted beside the pool, but it was a little different.

The stone slabs around the blood pool here were engraved with circles and circles of nine layers of blood-colored spells.

More than a dozen cultists wearing black robes, hoods, and masks on their faces gathered around the blood pool.

The expressions on their masks were all happy, angry, sad, and happy, and each one was different.

These people chanted unknown spells in unison, and the sound just now was made by them.

The leader was a white-robed cultist, who danced with a sword in one hand and rang a bell in the other.

"What are they offering sacrifices to?" Gu Xia saw what kind of sacrificial ceremony this was.

Because there were sacrifices next to them.

Five people were tied side by side and taken to the edge of the blood pool. They had been killed and their blood was flowing out.

One person's body was still twitching slightly. He had just died. The scream should be his wail before death.

Judging from their clothes, they were just ordinary people. They should be the people who had recently disappeared in the county.

As the white-robed cultist waved his arms, the spells on the ground around the blood pool began to glow, and then the blood flowing from the sacrifice was attracted into the blood pool by an invisible force.

As soon as the blood of the sacrifices entered the blood pool, they seemed to come alive and turned into blood snakes, and then began to bite and devour each other.

Until only the largest blood snake was left, and it saw that there was nothing to devour, it turned into an Ouroboros and devoured itself.

The Ouroboros' body gradually curled up.

Finally, it condensed into a blood-red crystal.
