Chapter 135: Hunting the Apostles

Yo?

It was Zhao Yulong.

Yi Lin looked at the flashing profile picture on the communication channel.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Yulong was quite efficient.

but--

How could he know so quickly?

Could it be that he is also in Haiting City?

Shouldn't it?

As Yi Lin thought about it, she ignored Li Changge who was chattering aside, and opened the chat window with Zhao Yulong.

...

Zhao Yulong: Cough cough.

Yi Lin:?

Zhao Yulong: I'm just asking casually, just asking casually, don't take it to heart. You probably haven't read the forum, have you?

Yi Lin: I haven't watched it for two hours, why?

Zhao Yulong: That's good! Hey, there are a few things these days, you know, the work of the special team, but this matter has been handed over to other people by the team leader. Although it is a bit sudden to tell you now, your level...is not suitable for this muddy water.

Yi Lin: Muddy water? which trip?

Zhao Yulong: Something happened in Haiting City, forget it, I’ll tell you later, you don’t need to pay attention to it for now, if your level reaches…

Yi Lin: I'm in Haiting City.

Zhao Yulong: Well, that’s good, anyway, afterwards——huh?

Yi Lin: I'm in Haiting City.

Zhao Yulong: Did you make a typo?

Yi Lin: I'm in Haiting City.

Zhao Yulong: Shocked!

...

beep beep——

Voice calls between the apostles.

tick.

Connected.

Zhao Yulong's roar came across space through some kind of supernatural power.

"Fuck? Why did you kid go to Haiting City?"

Yi Lin smiled wryly: "I originally just helped a guy, um, a friend, solve a small supernatural incident."

——Oh sweetie.

Zhao Yulong seemed to slap his forehead and yelled such a sentence.

Then.

"Have you received the mission? I'm talking about a realistic mission."

Yi Lin's tone was calm: "Got it."

After thinking about it, Yi Lin added: "I never thought that the 'Tower' could issue missions in reality. This...is quite sudden."

What Yi Lin said was naturally false.

This is just Yi Lin's "argument" to Zhao Yulong.

Zhao Yulong was silent for a moment, and then suddenly said in a weeping voice: "It's over, I feel like I can't keep this phone anymore. If something happens to you, I guess—"

Yi Lin: "?"

Zhao Yulong: "Cough cough cough... In short, you are in a very dangerous situation now. This task is a bit weird."

Yi Lin thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "I do think it's a bit weird, too."

Yi Lin knew that the "tower" had very little possibility, and would issue a realistic mission to the apostle.

But in most cases, such weird realistic missions will only be released when some "abnormalities" in reality will cause great harm to the existing human civilization, or cause chaos.

From this point of view, it seems that Ta and the "special group" are competing for food.

But what is the purpose of the "tower" to release the real task, so far there is no clear statement.

If you want to protect humans...

It seems that even the doomsday cannot be explained.

In short, Yi Lin felt that something was wrong.

But for a while, he couldn't figure out why.

The "Tower" took a lot of trouble and issued a realistic mission, just to kill an... apostle named "Zhang Huichun"?

While Yi Lin was thinking.

Zhao Yulong sent another voice from Di Di Di.

"Since you have already intervened in this matter, I will report to the team leader later. At that time, after the 'abnormal incident' is dealt with, it will be recorded on your performance."

Performance?

When Zhao Yulong said these words, he always felt that there was something strange about them.

Zhao Yulong suddenly said quickly again: "Hey, wait a minute. This matter... is a bit wrong. You said that your friend, what kind of supernatural event? How could it be mixed with this matter?"

heard the words.

Erin recalled it.

He should have known Zhao Yulong at a later point in time, but he is not sure about the strength of Zhao Yulong now.

but--

For the "special group", the existence of spirit weapons should not be a secret.

So Yi Lin modified it a little, and briefly explained the fact that she accidentally discovered that Li Changge had an ownerless mother spirit on Li Changge's back.

Yi Lin hid the fact that she knew about the "masterless spirit" beforehand.

After all, under normal circumstances, based on his experience in Zhao Yulong's file, he shouldn't know the existence of "Masterless Spirit".

The amount of information is a bit large.

Zhao Yulong was silent for a full three minutes.

Just sent a voice again.

"What the hell?"

"?"

"That legendary masterless spirit is actually on the back of the international superstar Li Changge? Wait, it's still a mother spirit? Real name envy... Cough cough, no, the matter is very serious!"

"You probably don't know what a masterless spirit is..."

blah blah.

Zhao Yulong recounted the origin of "Unowned Spirit".

Yi Lin also cooperatively pretended to be suddenly enlightened.

"Well, alas... now it's a bit troublesome." After Zhao Yulong finished speaking, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh: "Look at the forum first, and we'll talk about the most popular post right now."

forum?

Yi Lin closed the chat window.

Then opened the forum.

The first thing that catches the eye is a post that has been pinned to the top.

The post was posted by an anonymous apostle.

...

【Shock! An unowned "spiritual weapon" was discovered in Haiting City! 】

It was just a simple title, but a large number of apostles responded to the post below——

[Fennenmengxin ask, what is a spirit weapon? 】

【Powder? tender? No picture no truth! 】

[I suspect that upstairs is driving, but I have no evidence! 】

[Fuck, is it true or not? Possessed weapons? That is a more advanced weapon than an epic weapon! Comparable to the golden legend! 】

[Spiritual weapon, like a dragon-slaying sword in hand, nine hundred and ninety-nine in one knife! 】

【Ah? Fishing stickers, identification complete! 】

[Lanzhou biscuits. 】

【Seed cake+1】

【Seed cake+2】

[Seed cake +3, please line up downstairs. 】

[It's better to believe it than to believe it, it's a waste of online ticket money, and it's a trip! Pippi shrimp, let's go! 】

[It is highly suspected that the original post is to promote the tourism development of Haiting City! Sit and wait for the fool to sell miserably. 】

[Is there a biscuit upstairs? Is the prosperity of Haiting City still need our apostles to promote it? Are you still dreaming? 】

What follows is a bunch of useless flooding replies.

but--

At the end, someone suddenly replied anonymously.

【This is a trap! trap! trap! Second-order apostles must not come to Haiting City! This is a realistic mission! Forced reality missions! Once it fails... wipe it out! ! ! 】

The anonymous apostle even posted the details of the mission in the post.

The dazzling word "trap" hurt everyone's eyes.

The word "obliteration" made countless people terrified.

it turns out--

In reality, this kind of forced obliteration mission will be issued!

Many people haven't even heard of "real-world missions."

Yi Lin silently closed the forum.

Straighten out the train of thought.

I roughly understand it.

The last anonymous apostle who posted a warning to others was half an hour ago.

That is, not long after Yi Lin had just come into contact with the third corpse.

Rush to Haiting City overnight?

It is estimated that the apostle who posted the post only had a big shit left in his heart.

"This matter has really become very troublesome..."

Yi Lin is well aware of the urine nature of the group of apostles.

After this post was posted, those who didn't believe it went crazy, but the apostles who really "would rather believe it" had already stepped on the ground network bus to Haiting City silently.

If there is such a thing, making a fortune in silence is the kingly way.

Water stickers will not run out at all.

It will not come out to clarify that this is a rumor.

Of course, among the group of posters, there are also some who deliberately posted posts to confuse other people's attention in order to reduce competitors.

"hehe."

Yi Lin couldn't help laughing again suddenly.

When a group of apostles came to Haiting City and suddenly accepted a "mandatory reality mission" inexplicably, there was only one person who jumped out to post a warning to others.

It is in sharp contrast with the number of apostles on the previous stickers.

The meaning is actually very simple: I was recruited, and I kept silent to see if I could drag more people into the water.

—the more the better.

Even an apostle with a little brain would feel that something was wrong with this kind of task.

And, no matter what, if you just kill one apostle, the more people come, the better.

There is no question about that.

Also mentioned before.

Among the apostles, the relationship is extremely complicated.

It cannot be explained by simple hostility or companionship.

Generally speaking, if there is no deep hatred, the apostles will not kill each other in the real world.

After all, the abilities of the apostles are various and complicated, and various turnaround props are emerging in an endless stream. There is no complete certainty or sufficient reason. No apostle will provoke another apostle for no reason.

— unless there is a great deal of certainty.

Coupled with conflicts of interest, it is even more difficult to say.

"No wonder Zhao Yulong reminded himself overnight, never go to Haiting City."

"This task is restricted to only second-tier apostles to take it?"

"why is that?"

Erin lowered her head.

Think silently.

Think about it all.

He is very clear that the power of the "tower" has limited influence on reality.

There seems to be some kind of "rule" to follow.

Even if it is a tower, without a "reason", it cannot kill any apostle at will.

Of course, the "Tower" has no wisdom and no "emotions", and generally speaking, it will not target any apostle who is not pleasing to the eye.

unless--

No unless.

...

Yi Lin finished browsing the forum.

I contacted Zhao Yulong again.

——A voice call between the apostles.

"What? How do you feel?"

Zhao Yulong said in a muffled voice.

"This matter is a bit complicated."

"It's very complicated! Besides, this thing is very weird!"

Zhao Yulong said in a deep voice: "Let's not talk about the mother on Li Changge's back, the mother spirit."

For some reason, Yi Lin always felt that Zhao Yulong's tone of voice was a little weird when he talked about the "mother spirit".

I only heard Zhao Yulong continue to say: "Let me tell you one thing first. In the actual mission you have accepted, the apostle named 'Zhang Huichun', I know who it is."

Yi Lin was slightly taken aback when she heard this.

But he didn't say anything to interrupt Zhao Yulong's words.

This is obviously extremely important information.

"Zhang Huichun, female, 26 years old, she is a young doctor in a central hospital in a certain city."

"Of course, because she has never committed any crimes in the real world, nor has she met in the other world, and she has not revealed her identity at all, so we did not know that she was an apostle before the accident."

Yi Lin heard the hidden information in the words: "Before the accident?"

Zhao Yulong continued: "On the morning of September 5, she was found dead in her own home. Because she lived alone, in the morning, the work unit found that she hadn't come to work, and the phone couldn't be reached, so she asked her friend to look for her at Zhang Huichun's house. So when it was close to noon, the body was found and sent to the morgue of the original unit."

"There were no wounds on the surface, and no strange traces were found at the place of death. It is preliminarily determined that the cause of death was a heart attack."

heart disease?

That is to say——

"Hehe, you should have guessed it, that's right, my conclusion is that she should have died in the trial of the other world."

died?

Erin frowned.

Did not speak.

What Zhao Yulong said next should be the key point.

Zhao Yulong suddenly chuckled, and his tone inexplicably became darker: "You probably wouldn't have guessed what happened next. On that night, in the hospital where Zhang Huichun's body was, a security guard died. The cause of death was... The cervical spine was broken, and only one side of the neck was bruised, and his neck was broken with one hand."

Yi Lin smiled slightly: "Why do I feel like you're telling a little thriller? If I'm not mistaken, what you're going to say next is that Zhang Huichun came back from the dead and killed the security guard?"

"!"

Zhao Yulong was startled.

He didn't expect that Yi Lin really guessed the ending.

Hey, his little story has been laid out for a long time!

You guessed the ending after hearing the beginning so easily, it's a bit embarrassing, brother!

"How did you guess that?"

"Still guessing? The tone of your horrifying story has been laid out. Isn't the most horrifying ending, Zhang Huichun resurrected from the dead and violently murdering people? What else could be the ending besides this?"

But although Yi Lin guessed this kind of result, in fact, when he reasonably guessed the ending of this little story, he couldn't help being shocked.

At the same time, many conjectures involuntarily surfaced in my heart.

Apostle back from the dead?

some kind of skill?

Or some kind of props that take effect after death?

Or is it someone else pretending to be Zhang Huichun?

Zhang Huichun wasn't the one who died in the first place?

Various possibilities intertwined in Yi Lin's mind.

Zhao Yulong was a little depressed, but he continued to talk, after all, the business was important.

"Zhang Huichun didn't know why, but he didn't destroy the hospital's surveillance video."

"We retrieved all the videos afterwards, and found that Zhang Huichun had indeed got up from the cryogenic cabin, and then walked through the corridor, chatting with the dead security guard, and then turned back and suddenly broke the security guard's neck. .”

"And then what?"

"Then? And then it's gone! After Zhang Huichun killed the security guard, he left the hospital. Uh, by the way, you should be very clear that the monitoring equipment will have some dead ends. We never saw Zhang Huichun exposed under the camera again." noodle."

The corners of Yi Lin's eyes twitched slightly, but she didn't deny it.

He is indeed very clear about the blind spot of the monitoring equipment.

"And, not only that."

Zhao Yulong's tone became a bit serious: "After that night, we received reports of murders one after another from all over the country... We suspect that Zhang Huichun was hunting and killing the apostles after his 'resurrection'."

"!"

"Of course, some homicides may appear to be 'normal' on the surface, so the relevant data has not been collected yet, but the 'abnormal' death methods of the corpses are all under the handling of our 'special team'."

"The 'Z5 Council' attaches great importance to this matter."

"Although the death methods of these murders are a little different, we have initially confirmed that there are at least four apostles who died in the hands of Zhang Huichun, and the route she used to hunt and kill the apostles..."

Yi Lin silently said the next words: "Haiting City."

"That's right, if Li Changge's mother spirit is included, tsk tsk...cough cough, in this matter, it stands to reason that at least five apostles died in her hands."

--At least.

In other words, more is possible.

"In short!"

Zhao Yulong put aside distracting thoughts related to the mother spirit, and became serious: "This matter is very complicated, very complicated! If it is not handled properly, it may cause a very serious accident! In the past ten years, since the 'Special Group' After its establishment, such a blatant and purposeless hunt for an apostle has seldom occurred!"

"If I'm not mistaken, there may be two reasons why the actual task is triggered. First, Zhang Huichun is still in Haiting City. Second, you, as an apostle, are in the city where Zhang Huichun is located. touched the dead body of the apostle."

"Of course, this is just my speculation. Anyway, since you were forced to accept the mission, you can't escape."

Yi Lin remained silent.

What Zhao Yulong said was...the truth.

Yi Lin is just a human being, not a god.

Even if everything is carefully considered, it is impossible to predict the supernatural event that Li Changge encountered, but it just happens to be one of the series of events.

He was inadvertently drawn into this vortex.

but--

What makes Yi Lin feel strange is that.

In his memory, in the trajectory of "that future", there has never been such a serious incident of hunting the apostles.

Or……

He hadn't become an apostle at that time, didn't he have the right to know?

Hidden?

Yi Lin has been unable to return to "that future", and many speculations cannot be confirmed one by one.

Now, the most important thing is to solve this incident.

"Oh, that's right! I'm still investigating this matter elsewhere, and I'll let you know as soon as I have any news! Also, a senior member of the 'Special Team' has arrived in Haiting City, and you should have a chance to meet at that time. "

After finishing speaking, Zhao Yulong hastily cut off his voice.

It seems that he was really overwhelmed by this "hunting the apostle" incident.

Originally, Yi Lin wanted Zhao Yulong to send over the surveillance video of Zhang Huichun in the hospital.

--Did not have time.

Forget it, talk about it later.

As for Zhang Huichun's information, the non-confidential parts should be searchable online.

At the very least, the name, age, gender, and photo can still be found.

As for the others... It is estimated that they have been suppressed by the special group.

"Anomalies" are all handled by the special group.

After all, Zhang Huichun was a doctor in a formal hospital "before his death".

There's still time left--

72 hours!

Seems like plenty.

But it was not easy to find an apostle among the vast crowds in Haiting City.

At the very least, according to Yi Lin's own words, he really wanted to hide, he believed that very few people could find him out.

It is definitely not easy to deal with people who can hunt and kill the apostles all the way to Haiting City.

It begins with Zhang Huichun's resurrection from the dead.

The matter is intricate.

It's not something that can be cleared up in a while.

But what Yi Lin lacks most now is time.

Moreover, if the guess is correct, the entire Haiting City will be the first large gathering of apostles that Yi Lin witnessed with her own eyes after her rebirth!

"Headache."

Yi Lin rubbed her temples and frowned.

Seeing that Yi Lin seemed to be done with work, Li Changge looked over eagerly.

Li Changge was able to receive the mission, in other words, he had reached at least level 10, a second-level apostle.

"I suggest that you look at the forum first."

Yi Lin laughed.

Li Changge was stunned at first.

"Forum? What's the matter with the forum—well, I'm going?! Damn???"

Li Changge muttered, and opened the forum to have a look.

in a minute.

Li Changge's face turned red at first, then gradually turned blue, and finally turned purple.

"Yo?"

Erin smiled.

The special effects behind Li Changge have changed.

A crematorium.

Surrounded by cherry blossoms.

Ah, it looks like Li Changge wants to be cremated amidst the cherry blossoms all over the sky.
