Chapter 11 The Missing Sacrifice

Super psychics and psychic investigators are completely different groups. They belong to the state power, have stronger psychic powers than investigators, know more about the supernatural field, and only super psychics have the ability to use holy objects, while investigators can only use psychic firearms.

"The forensic doctor has checked and the body on the ground is not a super psychic. After checking the fingerprints and DNA, we will know who he is." Bader said

"This doesn't make sense, even if it is..." Diana put her hands on her waist and looked at the body on the ground incomprehensible.

"Even if it is an illegal super psychic, he would not bother to kill an ordinary person, and use holy objects." Bader added.

What Bader said is right. It is not so easy for an ordinary person to become an investigator or a super psychic. A person must pass many exams and examinations before he has the opportunity to obtain the qualification of "psychic injection". After being rated, he must also register with the Administration and accept strict control.

All extraordinary psychics will be organized into PWAT, the CPA or FPI departments of the Psychic Administration. Some will also join some state police systems as senior positions, which is equivalent to being part of the federal police system or the army.

Investigators all work in various psychic companies, either becoming black box hunters or private psychic guards. Whether in terms of career, personal prospects or regulatory intensity, the opportunities and motivations for extraordinary psychics and psychic investigators to break the law are suppressed to the lowest level.

"Is this black man a civilian who escaped? I just saw a lot of 9mm ordinary pistol bullet shells at the scene downstairs." Diana asked in confusion.

"It cannot be confirmed, at least no 9mm pistols were found here." Bader replied.

"By the way, look at this."

As he said that, Bader threw the dagger in his hand to Diana.

The dagger spun in the air and drew an arc, and it turned into a small orange diamond. Diana stretched out her left hand to catch it, and the psychic energy in her body focused on it, turning it into a dagger again.

She looked at this exquisite dagger and was secretly amazed in her heart that it was actually an orange-level holy object!

Diana quickly took out a card camera-like device and pressed the button on the dagger:

[Blasphemy Dagger]

[鈥斺�敱怀瑾　�

[鈥斺�敱怀瑾　�

[鈥斺�斠燕褂漫�

This is a blasphemous dagger? ! She was shocked. The spiritual explosion effect here was caused by humans! This dagger is an extremely dangerous holy object. It is generally not used as a weapon because it has a one-time effect. That is, after the binding ceremony, piercing the heart of the sacrifice will cause a spiritual explosion effect within a certain range. At the same time, a door to the "Great Void" will be opened in the spiritual explosion space for a short time...

"But... why are all the entries gone?" Diana looked at the display screen, a little puzzled.

"I don't know either. This is the first time I've encountered this situation. You CPA manages a large number of holy objects, and you haven't seen this kind of thing?" Bader shrugged.

"Never before, the principle of the creation and effect of the holy relic has always been a mystery. It cannot be imitated or repaired, let alone extracting entries." Diana said in disbelief.

"The forensic doctor confirmed that the black man's heart is still there, and he is not a sacrifice. But the spiritual explosion effect did occur, and the special effects of the dagger also worked. The problem is that we didn't find the sacrifice... And why did the investigators of Weber's spiritual property arrive at the scene in the first time? What is the connection? Well, if this black man is a civilian who escaped, then where is the investigator's gun..."

Diana thought for a while and said, "This doesn't match at all. We didn't see the body of the sacrifice, and we can't be sure whether this body is a civilian who escaped?"

"I wonder how many people were here at the time..." Bader speculated.

"Maybe the civilian, or someone else, took the holy relic left by the human-faced dog before escaping." Diana added.

"Compared to the holy relic, I care more about the two lost pistols." Bader said puzzledly.

The two were silent for a while. Watching the forensic doctor put the body into the body bag, the black man's head accidentally fell off when the bag was put because the wound on his throat was a bit large.

"This is no longer a simple sudden psychic explosion incident. It involves three murders, one missing person, and a lost psychic firearm. I think this case should be under the jurisdiction of FPI." Bader said. After all, he is an FPI agent. They are responsible for investigating various murders involving psychic phenomena and the whereabouts of each psychic firearm.

"A bunch of psychic holy objects are missing, Bader, and it is obvious that this is a man-made psychic explosion space. Their purpose is obvious. They want to enter the Great Void to find more holy objects, and maybe even strange objects... This violates the supernatural contact regulations and the regulations on the supervision of holy objects. We CPA also have the right to take over this case." Diana did not give in. Any case involving the contact of holy objects and the Great Void is indeed under the management of CPA.

In fact, in the case of the psychic explosion space, the death and the loss of holy objects will not occur in isolation, so it is inevitable that CPA and FPI will fight each other.

Diana and Bader both knew that all the clues in this case pointed to the missing sacrifice. Finding him, or his body, would help them figure out what happened here.

"So how are you going to start the investigation? Are you going to use your large-caliber revolver to scare the CEO of Weber Spiritual Products?" Bader laughed.

"Beating around the bush is not my style, Bader. I like straight punches." Diana did not comment.

"Then let's see who's faster, Diana the Magical. I use my brain, you use your muscles, let's compete fairly." Bader was very straightforward.

Diana snorted, turned around and walked out the door.

Looking at Diana's back, Bader narrowed his eyes, as if he was thinking about something else.

...

An abandoned factory in the lower city of Opportunity City.

6:42 in the morning.

A sharp broadsword suddenly pierced into the top of a raging wild dog's head, and red thick blood and white brain juice sprayed on the ground. Chen Ke stepped on the dog's head and pulled out the sword, rubbing it on the dog's fur.

With a "swish", the broadsword flashed white light, disappeared out of thin air in Chen Ke's hand, and turned into a small white diamond.

After leaving the hiding place, in order to spend this long night, Chen Ke rushed to the abandoned factories that could be seen everywhere in Opportunity City.

He found some clothes to change in the closet in his hiding place. He was wearing a brown jacket and dark blue jeans, a white short-sleeved shirt, dark green hiking shoes, and a killer's red triangular bag on his back.

As the taxi driver said, these abandoned factories have indeed become the nesting place of many monsters. Although they are monsters, they are actually just wild dogs and cats that have been affected by psychic energy and then demonized.

In appearance, they have changed a little, and they can't see their original appearance at all. They are all black, their teeth are turned outward, and their claws have become extremely sharp.

But unlike the human-faced dogs he encountered in the building, after going through several abandoned factories and hunting hundreds of demonized cats and dogs, Chen Ke found that these monsters would not leave holy diamonds after death.

Moreover, these monsters have no means to attack human reason, and their fatality comes only from teeth and claws. It may be very fatal to ordinary people, but it doesn't have much impact on Chen Ke.

Chen Ke did not use Parker's psychic pistol, but summoned the executioner's bloodletting dagger, mainly considering that there were not many bullets left, and he wanted to save the bullets for use at the critical moment. Moreover, at midnight, the noise of using guns was too loud, and Chen Ke didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble.

But in the process of fighting, he realized more and more how great the advantage of the holy objects was in fighting against such monsters.

For example, when this executioner's bloodletting dagger attacked the wild dog, it actually directly created a wound that kept bleeding. Many wild dogs were not killed by Chen Ke, but died of blood loss after being stabbed with a sword.

Chen Ke couldn't describe the sharpness of this sword. At least when he pierced the muscles and bones of the wild dog, he didn't spend much effort.

The only disadvantage of the holy object may be that it must be fought at close range.

In addition to a deeper understanding of the holy object, he also found that he didn't need to sleep or eat at all, as if a perpetual motion machine never stopped.

After fighting all night, Chen Ke barely ensured the balance of income and expenditure of his life. The deep blue sky gradually became lighter, and the sleeping city was waking up. Chen Ke left the abandoned factory, leaving a pile of wild dog corpses.
