Odd Containment Specialist

"Hmph! I suspected you were a fake. The Xia Shou I know is not so mean." Liu Yilong twisted his body, looking very proud, as if he was enjoying it.

"Stop arguing. I think Xia Shou's idea of ​​Occam's razor theory is very good. How about we..."

Before Bai He finished speaking, footsteps came from the entrance of the temple. No. 58 and his team walked in carrying a moon beast corpse.

They used the moon beast corpse as a cover to block the moonlight and walked through the illuminated area.

As long as the killed moon beast has not been deliberately processed, it is not considered to be mixed with human transformation ideas, so it can be used as a cover.

Xia Shou counted the number of people on the other side. The team of four men and two women became three men and two women, and one did not come.

"Did you also encounter the moon beast?" Bai He took the initiative to talk.

No. 58 nodded: "Yes, one of us died."

After that, No. 58 glanced around and found that he was the only one in Lin Tiandong's team.

"Captain Lin, where are your team members?"

"One of us died, and the other three are not convenient to walk in the moonlight, so I asked them to wait for the time being."

Excluding Su Weiyu, the people present now include Xia Shou, Baihe, Wulang, and Liu Yilong.

And No. 58's team has five people.

Adding Lin Tiandong alone, even without Su Weiyu, the number of people who can activate the core area has reached.

"There are enough people, should we start?" No. 58 asked for the opinions of others.

At this time, Lin Tiandong stood up and said: "The core area is likely to involve the Seven-branch History Tree. Once activated, the health of all those entering the village will continue to deteriorate, and then there will be cannibalism. By then, it will be impossible to unite and cooperate.

I suggest that before activating the holy land, we should do everything else we can."

No. 58 looked at the other party: "Are you referring to the No. 103 forbidden object [Scorpion Spine]?"

"Yes, you are also one of the candidates for the transformation plan. You should know how much the unobtained part of the Scorpion Spine will increase the success rate of the experiment. I want to find the remains of the Scorpion Spine while we can still move." Lin Tiandong said.

Xia Shou immediately raised his hand to object: "I object. There are only ten people present now. Even if we add the three people who didn't come from your team and the one team member we didn't find, there are only fourteen people. If five more people die, the holy land cannot be activated.

Finding the entrance to the Seven-branched Historical Tree is our primary purpose of entering the village, and the Scorpion Spine is second."

No. 58 touched his chin, pondered for a long time, and said calmly: "I agree with Xia Shou's statement. According to the known information, the monster that took away the remaining part of the Scorpion Spine was very powerful. It is not only immune to conventional thermal weapons, but also can absorb most of the kinetic energy impact. It is too risky to fight such a monster."

Lin Tiandong smiled silently: "Indeed, the risk is great, but it's okay for me. The information says that its attack method is ordinary physical attack, which I am immune to all of them. Now I am also immune to moonlight, so I want to try it."

"But we can't open the holy land without you." No. 58 said.

"Give me a day, I will come here tomorrow night." Lin Tiandong said.

No. 58 looked at the corpse of the moon beast at his feet with a serious expression and said, "There are many beasts like this that glow in this village. It's lucky that ten people can get together today. It may not be possible for all of them to get together tomorrow night."

"I will hunt them. You can't even protect yourself, right?"

Lin Tiandong stood up alone and walked out of the temple without looking back, walking away in the moonlight.

"What kind of person is this!" Liu Yilong sneered.

"Lin Tiandong is such a person. If I were him, I might not do as well as him." No. 58 smiled at Liu Yilong, "Forgive his bad temper, he is actually a good person."

"How can this guy be a good person? It's completely personal heroism!" Liu Yilong said angrily.

No. 58 sat down on the steps of the altar, tidied up his dirty suit, and said, "Anyway, there is no way to open the holy land for the time being, so let me tell you a story."

No one objected.

Just like No. 58 said, they are now missing one person and there is no way to open the holy land.

But only Xia Shou knows that there are enough people, because there are exactly ten people including Su Weiyu.

He just needs to find an excuse to let everyone cooperate with him to try to open the holy land when there are only nine people.

Then because of Su Weiyu's joining, the holy land will naturally open, and everyone will feel "normal" afterwards.

The reason why Xia Shou is not in a hurry to open the holy land is because of many considerations.

At present, Ling Xiao's whereabouts are unknown. Since she can leave a signpost in the stone forest maze, it means that she must have found the temple in the end, but she is not in the temple now, and there is no trace of her in the village during the day.

Then she may have encountered some trouble, which makes her unable to return to the normal village during the day or stay in the temple at night.

If they open the holy land now, the health of all members will begin to deteriorate, which may cause trouble for Ling Xiao.

In addition... Xia Shou has a vague feeling that something seems to be wrong.

While Xia Shou was thinking alone, No. 58 also began to tell his story.

"As everyone knows, in the supernatural world, whenever there is a sixth-level strange death, large-scale strange phenomena will inevitably occur. This level of spell power leakage can no longer be absorbed by ordinary death prisoner barriers, and third-level death prisoner barriers must be used.

In 1978, the super-high-risk monster [Weird Swamp Monster] died due to exhaustion of its natural lifespan.

After its death, creatures within a radius of 100 miles began to show amphibious characteristics, and the natural landscape gradually evolved into a swamp. The fan-shaped area of ​​100 kilometers in the southern suburbs outside the city was completely reduced to a swamp area with a depth of 1,000 meters, and the indirect impact on the stratum covered the entire city.

The analysis result of this disaster is that within a few days, all the peripheral buildings of the city near the swamp suburbs will sink, and the building foundations of the entire city will be completely destroyed within a year, and the area will become an area unsuitable for human habitation.

The social impact and economic losses caused by this are incalculable.

The worst thing is that the authorities did not have enough third-level death row prisoners at the time to prevent the expansion of weirdness, and could only watch the weird phenomenon gradually spread.

At the last moment when the situation was about to be completely irreversible, it was the fourth-level finisher [Fisherman] who stepped forward and absorbed all the leaked magic power alone in an unknown way to prevent the disaster.

After absorbing all the cursed power, he disappeared. It was not until thirty years later that the Control Bureau found his whereabouts.

That year, after solving the "spread of the strange swamp incident", the fisherman's mind was affected by unknown factors. He left the Control Bureau alone and lived in seclusion beside a lake in northern China.

Decades later, he fell in love with an 18-year-old local girl and married her.

The two gave birth to two children in 2000 and 2001, namely Lin Rizhe and Lin Tiandong.

The clue that allowed the Control Bureau to find the fisherman was a murder case. "
