Siren Blade

Chapter 99
A bloody smell wafted from the house on the side of the road. It was a grocery store, more than ten meters in front of me.I am very familiar with this smell, and I recognized it immediately. It is not the bloody smell of livestock, but human.

Although I have a good sense of smell, I can still smell the smell of blood coming from the room in this rainy day. I am afraid that quite a lot of blood has been exposed to the air.I immediately became alert, walked quickly to the side of the grocery store, and silently spread my awareness into it.

The interior scene came to my mind.This grocery store has two floors. The first floor is the grocery store decoration that can be seen everywhere. The second floor looks like a residential area, and the smell of blood is transmitted from there.In a room on the second floor that looked like a bedroom, I "saw" two fresh corpses lying on the ground, and a person who was suppressing his excited voice and frantically torturing the corpses with inhumane methods.

From the latter's body, I sensed a highly active spirit.This man is definitely a magician, and his spirituality is highly active and has a lot to do with what he is doing at this moment.He is strengthening his own spirituality in this way.

As far as I know, people who do this kind of thing are basically demon warlocks.For example, in the past, middlemen have done acts of strengthening themselves with extremely depraved crimes.That kind of evil law is not only pleasing the devil, but also imitating the devil.Warlocks who practice this method will acquire demon-like power, but also acquire demon-like desires and become more and more willing to commit crimes.After degenerating to a certain point, you don't even need to please the devil anymore, just to please your own evil spirit, and you can continue to grow stronger.

Regardless of whether the person upstairs is a demon warlock or not, since he has done such a demonic act, he must be treated as a demon warlock.

Although I am not qualified to say that others are.

At this moment, the man upstairs suddenly stopped his movements and looked around like a vigilant beast.

He must have noticed that I am aware of him, but he has not yet noticed my specific location.Insufficient hiding power is one of my weaknesses. His strength is obviously inferior to that of a middleman in my intuition, but he can detect me hiding in the dark.It seems that it is not only a long-range attack method, but also I have to find a way to prepare the means to hide myself.As an unorthodox warlock, my shortcomings are too many.

I quietly pushed open the glass door on the first floor of the grocery store and let myself move to the second floor like a ghost.After reaching the second floor, the man suddenly glanced in my direction.I quickly came to the room where the man was, the door was ajar, and I could clearly see the specific scene in the room.

The man was an ordinary man in civilian clothes, with horrible blood stains on his hands and clothes.The two corpses on the ground seemed to be husband and wife, probably the owner and his wife who ran the grocery store, and they had been tortured to a mess.I am used to such bloody and cruel scenes, but I still can't help but feel strong sadness and anger for them.At the same time, other parts of the room attracted my attention.

Strange runes were carved with fresh blood on the floor and walls of the room. This seemed to be some kind of magic circle that was only half completed, and an evil and terrifying charm emanated from it.Relying on this charm, I immediately recognized it instinctively. This is a magic circle based on the knowledge of demons.And the person who portrayed the magic circle didn't think otherwise, he was just a warlock who was doing utterly devoid of conscience.

"Who are you?" He asked me, all the muscles in his body tightened, and menacing emotions filled his eyes.But he didn't launch an attack immediately, as if he felt something from my side.

"You are a demon warlock." I turned my gaze to him, "What kind of magic circle is this? Is it a ritual magic circle to initiate a sacrifice to the devil? These two people are sacrifices? No, the magic circle has not been drawn yet After that, you start destroying the corpse...or is it more important to satisfy your own desires first than to sacrifice to the devil?"

He scoffed, "Do you think I'll tell you the truth?"

"It doesn't matter if you don't plan to talk, I have plenty of ways to get you to talk." In any case, I have made up my mind to kill him.As for his criminal motives, or even his secrets, there is no need to capture him alive before forcing him to speak out.Just let the siren blade devour his soul and extract the memory from the fragments of the spirit body.

Just as I raised my hand, he made the first move.His face became extremely ferocious, his whole body suddenly swelled, and his skin became red.It was actually the first time to use the spell of sacrificing life to the devil.

He suddenly let out a violent roar that shook the ceiling, and rushed towards me.

This kind of self-sacrifice spell is a common method among demon warlocks, and it can effectively increase one's combat ability.Although there is a price of shortening the lifespan, but in life and death fights, the one who has the last laugh is the winner.

However, there are also some demon warlocks who can pay a relatively small price in exchange for powerful power, such as the middleman who I fought with before. He often sacrificed his life to the demon named "Barilo" during the battle.

Barilo is a well-known demon in the demon warlock community. I heard that this demon can provide strong binding force when warlocks use the demon contract.When the warlock who signed the contract violated the contract, the power of this demon would descend out of thin air and punish the violator.The highest can even restrain the warlocks of the main level.

And this Barilo is actually the name of the hybrid demon biting blood as the demon.

It is also a "benefit" of biting blood for the "subordinate" of the middleman in exchange for a small price.Similarly, this kind of welfare biting blood will also be provided to other demon warlocks whom she supports and later become her subordinates, which can be regarded as one of the means for her to strengthen the interest relationship with her subordinates.As far as the shortcomings are concerned, the stronger the sacrificer's own strength, the less the bonus that the sacrifice can give back.According to the memory of the succubus, while granting this sacrificial spell, Bloodbite will bind its subordinates with a contract not to tell the secret that "Barilo is Bloodbite".

Bite Blood must have harvested a lot of life through this method.That being the case, why did she bother to find a way to prolong her life?I can't help but wonder about this.

Speaking of which, since this demon warlock directly used the spell of sacrificing life, it meant that he had actually seen the fact that there was a huge disparity in strength between the enemy and himself.And his dashing attack was actually a feint. With just one step, he smashed the floor and let his body fall backwards towards the window directly behind.

However, this seemingly sudden movement is also within my "awareness".

Just as his body smashed through the window, I replaced the knife with my hand, and slashed straight ahead with my right hand.A dazzling indigo blue knife gang suddenly drew in the air, accompanied by a short but thick hunting sound like a flag waving vigorously in the air, the knife gang shot away with lightning speed.He was in mid-air outside the wall and couldn't dodge, he could only make desperate and futile blocking movements.The knife gang slashed at his body at high speed, cutting him into two neatly like a sharp kitchen knife cutting through the bone and flesh of a chicken leg.

The body turned in half fell to the ground outside the grocery store horribly, and Dao Gang continued to fly less than ten meters away before dissipating.I intentionally reduced the range this time, otherwise it would be easy to bombard the building opposite the grocery store.It is much easier to reduce range than to increase it.However, the corpse that fell to the ground seemed to have attracted the attention of passers-by outside, and I heard noisy and frightened voices coming from outside.

I took out my mobile phone and briefly explained the situation here to the Security Bureau.After the personnel in charge of dealing with the aftermath arrived, I left the place and continued to look for Joan.

There is no need to say much about what happened after that.I successfully found Joan, who had turned into a succubus, and brought him back to my home.And now it's night, and I entered the siren's dream, wanting to know what the demon warlock was doing at that time.

But I hit a wall.

"I can't read the memory of this demon warlock." The siren said to me.

I asked unexpectedly: "What's going on?"

"To be exact, I can read most of the demon warlock's memories. But what was he doing in that grocery store at that time, especially the things related to the magic circle he drew in the grocery store at that time, I can't read it at all." Her face showed serious thinking, "This is the first time I have encountered this situation, but the description related to it has appeared in the memory of evil tricks."

I was also reminded of that thread, "You mean... 'gate control'?"

"That's it." She nodded.

"Access control" is a measure used by the eve to protect the memory of members, and it can strictly block the memory related to the secret of the eve.The evil trick last time was actually protected by the "gate control", but in the process of transforming into the fog demon, the "gate control" became invalid.

"In other words, this Demon Warlock is a member of Eve?" I asked.

"Yes," said the Siren.

"But what secret does he have that is worth protecting with 'door control'?" Judging from my combat experience, that demon warlock is completely useless, and according to the information I got from the memory of evil moves, "door control" "It's actually a high-level spell.Therefore, it does not mean that as long as it is the warlock of the previous night, it must have "access control". Only those who know important secrets will be imposed.

Could it be that he was a member of the department in charge of Internet demon knowledge the night before?So it's like a bad move, in order to prevent the Security Bureau from knowing that it was spreading demonic knowledge on the Internet the night before, and imposed a "gate control"?It doesn't seem right, his "door control" protects the memory related to the magic circle in the grocery store, which is not the same as the evil move.

I then asked, "Is there anyone behind him instigating?"

"I don't know." The Siren shook his head, "All the memories related to the secret have been blocked. We can only know that he is a member of Eve. He was originally a demon warlock who was active in other places. He recently came to Liucheng with an unknown motive. More content cannot be explored.”

I began to wonder if there was any other way to investigate.And she seemed to feel that she was offended by this "access control", and said as if she was not convinced: "It will definitely not be like this next time."
-
Judging from the situation of that demon warlock, it is possible that the night before yesterday he extended his hand to Liucheng for an unknown purpose.And I already have the prospect of investigation.Specifically, I don't intend to investigate it myself, but to hand it over to the Security Service.

My ability to investigate things by myself is weak.Once I lost the handy "golden finger" of direct access to memory, I was a complete layman in investigation.Instead, leave it to the professionals.Although there are no direct clues in the demon warlock's memory, it is not impossible to find other clues.For example, where he has been in Liucheng recently, what things he bought, when he came to Liucheng, and when he plans to go back, real professionals may be able to find key clues from these ordinary information.

And, the magic circle itself is also a very important clue.Although I don't need to say that the Security Bureau should study it, but I can emphasize the importance of the magic circle.

However, I haven't planned to publicize the memory-reading ability of the Siren Blade for the time being, so I will give these clues to Lie Que first.As well as the possibility of getting involved in Liucheng the night before, Lie Que must also be notified.

When I woke up the next day, I took out my laptop immediately before I forgot.I first input the clues that I tried to write down in the dream into the electronic document, and then added the whole story at the beginning, and then sent it to Lie Que.

After a while, Lie Que called.

"I have roughly grasped the matter, and your response method is correct." He said, "After that, I will arrange for professionals to investigate by phone. After the investigation has results, I will share the results with you. In addition, I Not in Liucheng now, if you have any new discoveries over there, please contact me by phone."

"Where are you?" I asked.

"Daylight Town," he said, "Joe Licorice has reported her brother's turning into a succubus, and the ins and outs of becoming a succubus. It's unbelievable, but just in case, I'm going to See if there are any other remaining demons in Daylight Town."

Qiao Gancao had to apply for the props for Joan to unfuse, and also arranged for medical examinations and other means to unfuse. Of course, it was impossible to hide from the security bureau that Joan became a succubus.

And there is no need to hide it. The Security Bureau is quite open-minded in this regard, so that even the little Joan can't tolerate it... I thought about it, and asked, "Are you going in person?"

"The rescue force I brought to Bairi Town has all been withdrawn. And it's just a small matter of looking for demons, and I can solve it myself immediately." He said, "Also, Li Duo, you are in Liucheng this time. It is a credit for discovering the previous night warlock and its follow-up clues inside. Although I do not recommend that you promote your ability to devour souls and read memories, there is no need to hide the credit."

He seemed to show a bit of concern, "I'll tell other colleagues in the Security Bureau that those are the clues you discovered with some exclusive means, how about it?"
