Chapter 8 The Compromise of the Public Security Bureau
Chapter 8
Redstone City Sheriff's Office, not long after dawn, the detectives of various branches were already busy.
In just one night, there were more than a dozen murders involving supernatural beings in the outer city.
These people died in all kinds of strange ways.
Some were burned to death...
Some died with wounds all over their bodies and bleeding...
Some fell to death from a high altitude in the house...
There were all kinds of ways of death, but no trace of the murderer could be found at the scene.
In the end, it was the criminal hunters of the Sheriff's Office who took action personally and noticed that there were traces of spirituality at the scene.
At the same time, it was also discovered that there were tens of thousands of static paintings containing weak spirituality in the outer city.
These static paintings of supernatural sequences have no abnormality in the hands. When ordinary people hold them in their hands, the static paintings will immediately merge into the body and disappear. Through some of the collected static paintings, it can be seen that the deaths last night were very similar to the deaths shown in these static paintings.
On the second day, hundreds of people died in the outer city again.
Jonathan, the chief detective of the Sheriff's Office, put down the phone in his hand with an extremely ugly face.
He had just consulted a nobleman of the painter sequence he knew in another city, and the result was that all static paintings were the key to enter the spiritual realm. If the spiritual realm and the controller of the spiritual realm could not be found, all ordinary people who had come into contact with static paintings would continue to enter the spiritual realm in their dreams.
He had already found a doctor sequence to carefully examine the brains of the dead.
He hoped for good news, otherwise Redstone City would be in chaos.
Conservative estimates put the number of static paintings at more than 100,000.
Although the death rate was low for the time being, once the news spread, the chaos caused by the fear of 100,000 people was no small matter. He was more worried about what the murderer behind the scenes wanted to do.
If the spiritual realm behind was a spiritual realm drawn by a painter, then he must be a painter of sequence 6 at least.
And he was just a criminal hunter of sequence 8. When a sequence 8 meets a sequence 6, whether he wants to die depends on the other party's mood.
Bang bang bang!
"Come in!"
Jonathan's heart tightened when he heard the knock on the door, and he took the initiative to stand up and open the door.
He hoped that this time he would get good news, as he had heard too many bad news in a row.
"What's going on?"
Jonathan stood directly at the door and stared at Bentham and asked.
Bentham is the only medical examiner with a sequence 8 in the Public Security Bureau. If even he cannot find the information he wants, then he can only report to the higher level of the Public Security Bureau. However, this also represents his incompetence, and the chances of further progress in the future will undoubtedly be reduced a lot.
"This is the report you want."
Bentham handed the folder in his hand to Jonathan.
Jonathan took the report and opened it immediately. The content of the report was the memory dug out from the brain of the deceased. Although it was incomplete, there were more than one report, but a full one hundred. After reading it quickly, he summarized some key points.
First of all, the spiritual realm is very special. The scope is very small but not limited to one scene.
Secondly, the spiritual realm scene is very flexible and can be changed to a certain extent according to the ordinary people who enter it.
Then, the spiritual realm is harmless to most people.
All the dead meet the special condition of not repenting.
All the scenes in the spiritual realm are testing the will to survive of the entrants.
This also means that the painter behind the scenes did not intend to kill people. At most, he used the spiritual realm to remove some of the residues identified by the painter.
Jonathan was really relieved. He really didn't want to face a painter who was suspected to be a Sequence 6 painter unless he had no other choice.
Now it's fine. He just needs to keep an eye on the remnants in the outer city and collect the bodies in time at night. The turmoil in the outer city won't be too big. After all, the outer city has a population of hundreds of thousands. On average, hundreds of people die every day.
Now the number of dead has only doubled. As long as ordinary people don't see the tragic state of the dead, there will be no turmoil.
...
At this time, Rosen didn't know that his spiritual paintings had made a Sequence 8 criminal hunter sleepless.
He didn't know that this criminal hunter took the initiative to help him cover up the changes in the outer city for his own future and to avoid facing him. Even the static painting keys that were originally collected by the Public Security Bureau were secretly sent to those honest and decent ordinary people by the Public Security Bureau.
However, a few days later, it was found that the static paintings were activated. Rosen guessed that the Public Security Bureau secretly helped a lot.
As time passed, the virtual spiritual realm of Saw 1 began to gradually collect more and more spirituality.
Only 1% of these spiritual powers were reserved for Rosen to use, and the rest became nutrients for the virtual spiritual realm.
In addition, the virtual spiritual realm also executed thousands of ordinary people like Drunkard John.
Because these people were executed by the virtual spiritual realm, their complete spiritual powers were drained by the virtual spiritual realm at once. The direct change was that the virtual spiritual realm gradually gave birth to a special extraordinary ability. Rosen would have found it difficult to discover this change if he had not checked his personal attributes through the main god computer.
This day Rosen honed his painting skills as usual, and usually made two points of spiritual power into spiritual paintings as usual.
He was not in a hurry to open up a new virtual spiritual realm, because there were only so many ordinary people in Red Stone City.
It was lucky that nothing happened this time. If you don't know how to restrain yourself, you will only ask for trouble.
Rosen didn't think that no one could solve the static painting key of the virtual spiritual realm. He read all the books passed down by Rosen's family these days, and indeed found some knowledge about the extraordinary world that only spiritual people could read, so that Rosen didn't know it in the past.
There is a sentence that Rosen kept in mind: spirituality is the core of everything in the extraordinary world.
The strength of spirituality determines the strength of extraordinary abilities.
Although the spiritual static paintings he printed in batches can attach spirituality to them because of the main god computer, he did not invest much spirituality in total, and it was even less when distributed to each static painting.
It was okay if no one took it seriously when dealing with some ordinary people. If they really took it seriously, any painter of sequence 8 could solve it.
At that time, without the key, it would be equivalent to a virtual spiritual realm dying halfway and no longer being supplemented by external spirituality. At that time, he, the painter, could only inject his spirituality into the virtual spiritual realm himself, and the result would be a drop in the bucket.
So Rosen did not plan to continue to make trouble in Red Stone City. He just planned to wait quietly for the virtual spiritual realm to materialize.
Then he would leave Red Stone City and go to a more prosperous city to start a new life openly.
And to leave Red Stone City, it is obviously not possible without sufficient strength to protect himself.
Therefore, these days, Rosen only draws two kinds of static paintings. The first is a shield, and the second is a flying bullet. The former can materialize a shield out of thin air to resist damage, and the latter can make the rapidly flying bullet in the painting appear in reality and shoot at the enemy.
Such spiritual paintings that can provide combat capabilities, of course, the more they are accumulated, the better.
This also made Rosen discover a hidden benefit of the mysterious study. The spirituality contained in the spiritual paintings is not that it will not dissipate. No spiritual painting can exist forever. Even if it can exist for 100,000 years, it will still dissipate invisibly in 100,001 years.
The existence time of spiritual paintings depends on the sequence level of the painter, as well as the quality of the brush, paint and drawing paper.
Rosen has none of these. Logically, the spiritual paintings he draws can exist for a maximum of twelve days, but the result is that the spiritual paintings drawn twelve days ago currently have no trace of spiritual loss. This makes him sure that the mysterious study has a hidden function of preventing spiritual loss.
So other painters have limited spiritual paintings accumulated, but Rosen can use the mysterious study to accumulate spiritual paintings infinitely.
Although this cannot increase the upper limit of combat power, it can greatly increase his combat endurance time.
