Bulwark of Light

Chapter 68
Gu Shen lowered his hat, slowly squeezed through the crowd, and came to the bar.

The bartender is here.

Gu Shen saw the bartender smiling at him friendly, handed him a wine list, and opened his mouth to say something.

Judging by the shape of his mouth, what he said was——

"What do you want?"

Until now, the world of Gu Shen's profiling is still silent. This is the first time he has used this ability. It stands to reason that profiling and hypnosis are the extraordinary basic abilities of the spiritual system, but profiling consumes more, maybe It is because it has the characteristics of "retrospection", which allows the transcendent to compete against time to a certain extent.

However, rather than saying that the profile breaks the shackles of time, it is better to say that it is a search for the guidance of destiny in the dark.

The longer the retrospective time, the more intense the consumption of mental power.

The more powerful the profile character, the more ambiguous the guidance.

If you want to spy on scenes that are not your own, you will be strongly repelled.

The ray of shadow in the profiling world dissipated. Jiang Wan sat in this position three days ago and touched the sealed item?
Continuing to profile, the blazing flames flickered violently.

The consumption of mental power suddenly increased.

No... This shadow didn't dissipate... In Gu Shen's field of vision, a faint black shadow dragged past...

Someone brought a sealed item and stayed in this bar for a short time.

Was it at this time that Jiang Wan was infected by the extraordinary aura of the sealed item?

The thread breaks off here.

"I want a... this."

Gu Shen's thoughts returned to reality, he saw the impatient eyes of the bartender, and casually pointed to a name on the wine list, at this moment, a voice sounded in the silent world of profiling.

"Gin is very strong...not for you."

Gu Shen's pupils contracted.

Almost instantly, he entered a state of vigilance, his five fingers slipped into his sleeves, and he pinched the ruler of truth.

Gu Shen looked beside him vigilantly——

Just at the distance of two bodies.

A burly man in a gray hoodie, leaning against the bar, facing the dance floor, his eyes lingering on the neon chaos on the dance floor, stirring the ice in the glass with great interest, he didn't even look at himself, just lazy Yang Yang said: "I suggest you choose that glass of cosmopolitan... Although it is a lady's wine, it has a good strength and taste, suitable for young people like you who have just arrived."

Gu Shen didn't relax his vigilance.

He whispered, "Who are you?"

Being able to break into one's own profiling world... This is also an extraordinary person.

"Relax, don't look at me." The uncle in the hoodie still had that lazy expression, and said indifferently: "The movement of profiling is not small. If you don't want to be discovered, you should be more vigilant. What's more, I want to You make a move... you have already made a move, haven't you?"

The blaze dissipated.

Gu Shen is still on alert, but he has disarmed the "Profile"... This does not have the ability to increase combat power, and it also consumes a lot of mental power.

"We met for the first time. I'm Cui Zhongzhong's informant, Hu Danian."

In the noisy world, the uncle's voice is very soft, but it is extremely clear to the ears.

Cui Zhongcheng!
Gu Shen's mood eased a little. Although he still held the ruler and didn't relax, he said to the bartender, "Change to a different wine...I want this."

He pointed to the cup of "Metropolis" recommended by the man.

Seeing Gu Shen's reaction, the man in the hoodie smiled, "Actually, it doesn't matter whether you believe me or not...Since you've found this place, you should find that the clues have been interrupted. I have some information about the one you're looking for. A 'sealed item'."

When the word "Sealed Artifact" appeared, the guard in Gu Shen's eyes became much less.

"Sumu stone carving, the serial number has not been determined, and it is preliminarily determined to be a D-level risky sealed item."

Hu Danian took out a photo from his pocket, and moved his seat to get closer to Gu Shen. He pressed the photo on the smooth table of the bar, and Gu Shen took it. The photo was a stone statue depicting a ferocious ghost. , but the comparison object is the fist of an adult male. This stone carving is not big, only about half a fist.

It was exactly the same as what I saw in Jiang Wan's dream.

"This sealed object was once kept by the council in the metropolitan area, but a theft occurred a few years ago, so it was lost without a trace." Hu Danian said leisurely: "This is recorded in the file, once [Sumu Stone Carving] When in contact with people, they will spare no effort to snatch sleep until the contact person has a mental breakdown."

"It's just an appearance..." Gu Shen said in a low voice, "The actual reason for the deprivation of sleep is because it has a spiritual erosion on those who come into contact."

"Not bad." Hu Danian looked at Gu Shen in surprise, and smiled, "You're pretty smart... No wonder you got Mr. Cui's attention at such a young age."

Gu Shen didn't say anything.

My profile is currently confidential.

The informant probably didn't know who he was... He accepted the photo and asked, "The Sumu stone sculpture will erode the dreams of all those who come into contact with it until they have a mental breakdown... This is an extraordinary event, how many people have been infected? "

From my own profile, I saw a corner of the truth.

Someone is staying here with this sealed item... Unfortunately, Jiang Wan came into contact with it, and was deprived of sleep.

"So far, there are 24 people who have had indirect contact with the Sumu Stone Sculpture. This number is still rising, and they are all under the monitoring of the deep sea." Hu Danian calmly said: "You don't have to worry about these people...someone will take care of them, even if you don't If Jiang Wan is cured, we will also take action."

Gu Shen frowned.

This incident seems to be completely under control.

Is this another assessment Cui Zhongcheng throws at himself?

Gu Shen noticed that part of the black tattoo was exposed on the wrist of the uncle in the hoodie, and silently wrote down this detail: "You sent Jiang Wan to me?"

"No... I'm just an informant, how can I have such a great ability."

Hu Danian shook his head and regretted, "All of this was arranged by Mr. Cui. In fact, he had already given her a hint to find you. It's a pity that this woman is a bit stupid... She suffered for nothing for a few days."

Gu Shen didn't answer.

From the beginning of the fire case, he saw the so-called big shots' strategic layout.

In fact he didn't like the behavior very much.

"Where is the sealed item?" Gu Shen said, "I'll go and get rid of it."

"Although the situation is still under control...but the owner of the sealed item has not been found, and there is no information about this person in the deep sea database. What will happen next is unpredictable." Hu Danian looked at Gu Shen and said seriously: "This is me. The reason for waiting for you here is not just to inform the existence of the 'Sumu Stone Carving'—”

"Mr. Cui asked me to bring a word, this extraordinary incident is not as simple as you imagined."

Hu Danian said solemnly: "This week... Lipu Street, a remote corner of the river beach, several dead people appeared, all of them were adult males, and they all died of cutting their throats cleanly with a sharp instrument, without any trace of resistance. There is an extraordinary aura...Combined with the appearance of [Sumu Stone Sculpture], we have reason to believe that there is a mad and out-of-control wandering nearby."
