Cannon Fodder Collection [Comprehensive]
Chapter 188 Winchester (8)
Nepenthes: "Hi~"
Lin Ning was not at ease, and gave it a comprehensive inspection.
In fact, Lin Ning doesn't need to be so restless, it's not that the pitcher plant has simply absorbed "energy" before.The energy here ranges from spiritual power, to magic power, and then to the power of life. In terms of spiritual power, when the pitcher plant first met Lin Ning, it absorbed the overflowing spiritual power from Lin Ning when he ran his spiritual power for a week. This is the main reason why it can grow up; later in the world of "Harry Potter", magical animals are always nourished by magic power, and the pitcher plant can absorb it; and the power of life It's about the Albanian witch. The "trickster" eaten by the pitcher plant now, in layman's terms, is like an external incarnation of the trickster, which only contains part of the energy.
As far as the small stomach of the pitcher plant is concerned, that is not a problem.
After the inspection, Lin Ning was indeed relieved.
Then he was obsessed with studying the magic circle for a period of time. Based on the situation at that time, Lin Ning thought that the spell said by the "trickster" at that time might be a spell that could travel to a parallel world.
Yes, there is such a spell.
It's just that it's not that easy to implement, and the spell is little known.
And the "parallel world" here is not like Lin Ning, who can come without restrictions, but a parallel world that is closely related to the curse-responder.Further expansion is a parallel world where there are also curse-responders. In that parallel world, the curse-responders may have the same identity as the current world, or they may not. It is possible that the current world is an upright and kind person. In addition, the rules of the parallel world may be roughly similar, or they may be very different. It is possible that there are supernatural creatures in the current world, but there are no aliens in the parallel world, and so on.
All in all, it is a parallel world.
cough.
But this is just Lin Ning's own guess, but the identity of the 'trickster' is not that simple anyway.Lin Ning also continued to stare at him, and found that after his avatar disappeared outside his body, he reappeared, all because of a change of place, from Florida to Delaware, which borders Macchilan, to find Got a job as a gatekeeper.
Same as the original job.
For a period of time, there was no more death pranks, but more free time was spent in strip clubs, flirting with strippers, getting rich, living a luxurious life, and sometimes using others With my own ability, let a row of girls come into his arms and onto his bed.
Lin Ning: "..."
Lin Ning was often caught in the eye. Fortunately, after observing patiently for a period of time, she discovered that the 'trickster' had never said "God" once, even the colloquial phrase "OhmyGod" that everyone would say, He never said anything.In addition, there is nothing related to God or angels around him, but once he heard two people talking about God and Lucifer in a strip club, his expression was very strange, and he even showed a hint of love. sad.
Lin Ning: "?"
Lin Ning recalled that when the 'trickster' talked to her, he mentioned Nordic mythology, ancient Rome and ancient Greece, but God and angels were not mentioned.Well, this point is a bit far-fetched, but combined with all the signs in the life of the "trickster", Lin Ning wants to boldly guess that the "trickster" is an angel, and his level is not low.
If this is the case, Lin Ning suddenly doesn't know what to say.
What to say?
Just like the general public has a stereotyped image of ET, everyone also has a stereotyped image of angels, but no matter which stereotype there is, there is nothing like 'trickster'.In terms of appearance, it is analogous to the fact that a devil needs a skin when he comes to the world, and an angel will also choose a skin when he comes to the world, so the current appearance of the "trickster" is not his original appearance, so it is not easy to criticize him; As far as people are concerned, the "trickster" as an angel is far from the behavior style that the general public expects.
However, Lin Ning was not confused for long. After all, what the general public thinks is only what they expect. Who knows what the expected god will look like. Look at Vanir, the god of protection and prosperity from Nordic mythology. It is indeed It is true that it has brought protection and vitality to the town, but over the years, the townspeople have become murderers without knowing it, and have lost themselves.
Having said that, there is actually a way to verify whether the 'trickster' is an angel or not.
Lin Ning went to order something else for this matter, and it just so happened that the love story-themed novel represented by "Fifty Shades of Grey" that the White Queen ordered for her arrived.
Under the gaze of the White Queen, Lin Ning picked up "Fifty Shades of Grey" and quickly flipped through it. After reading it, she had a deeper understanding of the story. As Lin Ning thought, she was signing a master-servant agreement, and the man sitting opposite her was the dominant party in this relationship, and then they would quickly enter the stage of domination and being dominated, and love turned into love.
Lin Ning thought for a while and said, "I know the distribution of muscle nerves in the human body like the palm of the hand, and I can observe facial expressions and muscle activities in detail."
White Queen: "Emilia, what do you want to say?"
"Want to say that I will be a qualified dominator?" Lin Ning waved his hand as he spoke, "Don't pay attention to my words, I just said that casually. By the way, I saw the Colt gun being discussed again in the trading circle Looking at it, it looks like Colt guns may not be tradeable anymore."
Previously, Lin Ning was also interested in the legendary Colt gun that can kill all creatures, but she was busy developing the ghost virus and applying it to African dream grass roots, so she didn't pay much attention to it. Move the gun towards it.Unexpectedly, it may have become someone else's pocket now. It is said that Lin Ning has a record of seeing the Colt gun in the notebook of the Winchester brothers, Dean Winchester and Sam Win Chester's father, John Winchester, was tracking the gun.
Thinking of this, Lin Ning couldn't help but investigate their current movements.
It turned out that John Winchester had passed away a few days ago. He and the Winchester brothers had a car accident, in which John Winchester was only slightly injured, but Dean was seriously injured.According to hospital records, Dean was in critical condition at one point, but it is strange that Dean survived in the end, and miraculously all symptoms disappeared.
What's more, after he came back to life, John Winchester fell down.
Lin Ning immediately thought of death for life.
Then I thought of the crossroads demon, that is, John Winchester gave his life in exchange for Dean to live.In the possible deal with the Crossroad Demon that she investigated earlier, it is not that someone exchanged his own soul for his wife's cancer to be cured, but the Crossroad Demon generally has a period of ten years.
After further investigation, Lin Ning found out that their family of three had a car accident and was hit by a truck driver. According to the truck driver's excuse, he didn't remember what happened at that time.Looking at the on-site investigation files at that time, it is obvious that the truck driver deliberately hit it, and after hitting it once, it came again.
If the truck driver hadn't lied, he was probably possessed at the time.
just why?
Why did Azazel pick Sam Winchester?
There are other groups of people.
Lin Ning didn't watch many episodes of "Evil Force" at the beginning, so she didn't know the direction of the plot, and she didn't want to learn more about the love and hatred in it, but the obvious yellow If the demon Azazel is plotting something, she might as well check it out.

Before anything else, the Christmas vibe came first.
This festival has a special meaning to Lin Ning and the White Queen, and of course, it also has a special meaning to the pitcher plant, because it is a festival where gifts can be received.Now let’s not talk about the origin of Christmas. Anyway, the three of them are going to celebrate Christmas, so it’s hard work. Before Christmas, two slightly weird kidnapping cases happened in Baltimore.
They are said to be weird because according to eyewitnesses, the two kidnapped victims were taken from the chimney of their own fireplace. What is not optimistic is that it is impossible for an adult to go in and out of the chimneys of the two families , It’s just that the police didn’t have any clues. They didn’t know what came in and out of the chimney and took the victim away from the chimney.
More importantly, a similar case happened last year. However, like this year, there were no clues, and there was no news of the person who was taken away. Even if it was a kidnapping case, there was no blackmail call back.
Lin Ning frowned and said, "Evil Santa Claus?"
Nepenthes: "Wow!"
Lin Ning: "...what's the matter with you? You even want to taste Santa Claus now? Isn't your appetite very good?"
Nepenthes: "Hmph."
Lin Ning spread her hands: "I have already prepared your Christmas present, and I dare say it is definitely not Santa Claus." She then refused to disclose what the gift was, and visited the scene of the crime with the White Queen. It refused to follow, and on the way to the scene of the crime, Lin Ning smiled and said to the White Queen: "Honey, do you think it realizes that we have discovered its intention?"
Don't you just want to stay at home and look for gifts?
It's just why doesn't it think about it, even if Lin Ning leaves home, the White Queen is everywhere.
White Queen: "I don't think this is a rhetorical question."
Lin Ning smiled. After arriving at the community where the crime scene was located, she quickly discovered the connection between the two victims' families, that is, they both bought spirea garlands.Turning to last year's victims, their families also had such wreaths, but there was nothing else in common, so supernatural creatures had to be considered.
Spiraea is a flower widely used for human sacrifices in paganism. It is like a bait for gods. When gods are attracted, they will settle down. While bringing gifts, they will also bring the closest people eat it as a snack.
It's more like a guiding light to the gods, or the kind that comes with a letter "here is 'snack' to eat".
Speaking of which, Christmas was never celebrated in the early days of Christianity, because Jesus was not born on December 12.At that time, the Romans worshiped Saturn, the god in charge of farming, and held a carnival festival from mid-December to January 25. The festival activities included masquerade parties, feasts, visiting friends, exchanging gifts, and greening the hall.The early church originally prohibited believers from participating in this kind of celebration, but after repeated prohibitions, they had to turn it into a festival celebrating the birth of the Savior.
The origin of Santa Claus can be traced back to St. Nicholas, who was born in 280 A.D. It is said that he was helpful and generous. He died on December 12, and people commemorated him on this day. In the 6th century, people combined pagan gods, Odin from Norse mythology, and the story of Bishop Nicholas. Odin with a long white beard galloped through the night on an eight-legged white horse.
Later, at the end of the eighteenth century, a large number of Dutch immigrants came to the United States. They celebrated St. Nicholas Day according to tradition, so SinterKlaas gradually evolved into Santa Claus, which is the English name of Santa Claus today.
It can be said that various customs related to Christmas, from the day of December 12, to the Christmas tree, and even the fictional character of Santa Claus, are all related to paganism. pagan worship.
Among them, there are more than one or two pagan gods related to Christmas, but I don’t know which pagan god it is this time.
For this reason, Lin Ning first went to find out the origin of those garlands. They came from the same store, but they were not made by the owner himself, but someone made the garlands and gave them to him for free in his store.
Maggie Carrigan.
She also has a husband, and watching them live in Baltimore, they are ordinary people who have disappeared from everyone, and they even go to church.However, Lin Ning traced them back to their origins and found that the information she could track showed that this couple existed at least at the beginning of the last century, and they would change places every three to five years, and this would happen on Christmas Eve wherever they went. kind of kidnapping.
It is preliminarily determined that their husband and wife are the pagan gods who are causing trouble, but which one?
Lin Ning then made a method of elimination. So far, Saturn, the farming god in ancient Roman mythology, and Odin in Norse mythology still have many believers. .She thought of something later, and said to the White Queen: "Honey, help me check the climate of Baltimore in the middle and late December of last year, and compare it with previous years. By the way, there is also this year."
The results came out soon. In the middle and late ten days of the past two years, the temperature in Baltimore has risen compared with previous years. After excluding other variables, the temperature has risen by about five degrees in general, and it has only dropped a few degrees. Field of snow.
Lin Ning said: "They are the gods of the winter solstice."
The god of the winter solstice (holdnickar) will return mild weather after receiving sacrifices.
Judging from the current situation, it is obvious that the God of Winter Solstice fell from the altar after losing the majority of believers, and became such an indescribable existence.
Lin Ning propped his forehead, remembering that when he was in Egypt, the power of the Egyptian gods was also declining due to the loss of believers. Thinking about it, she was also rectified at that time, but now she doesn't feel cold. After all, she Becoming a god of technology is just for fun. She didn't become a god because of her faith. She became a dragon from a white snake more because of killing demons and slaying demons to cultivate herself, and she never thought of needing sacrifices.
So, "Let's go kill God."
The weapon is a stake made of evergreen trees, just like the demigod who dealt with the 'trickster' earlier.
The Carrigans looked like a normal couple, and they seemed warm and kind.In addition, their neighbor relationship is still very harmonious. In a short time, two neighbors came to give Christmas gifts. They also agreed to go to church together to listen to the gospel from God.
God knows, it was because of the existence of Christ that they became the losers in religious disputes.Now I have to aggrieve myself to praise the Lord. This is not an ordinary aggrieved, but Lin Ning did not feel the slightest sympathy. She parked the car on the side of the road and could smell the bloody smell coming from their house.
Lin Ning stepped forward and knocked on their door.
A day later, the news reported that the "male and female thieves" Carrigan and his wife had been arrested.The news said that the couple was a husband-and-wife serial killer, closely related to the two recent kidnappings, and they were even more insane ogres.
The police were able to crack the case because they received an anonymous report. When they arrived at the scene, the Carrigan couple had already killed each other because of the "unequal distribution of spoils".Nevertheless, the police found the victim who had not been eaten in the basement of their home, and found the tooth marks and DNA of the couple on the victim's body, and also found some kind of religious ceremony. Christians, and based on the crime patterns of their couple, it is further suspected that they were both the culprits in the kidnapping case last year.
As soon as the case came out, there was an uproar.
The irony is that after the deeds of the Carrigan couple were exposed, the couple got a group of fanatical admirers, the kind of worship that would write letters to serial killers in prisons, and even be willing to have children for them. The number of believers may be more than those who originally believed in them as the gods of the winter solstice.
Lin Ning didn't know whether it was more ironic, or the fact that the abilities of the Carrigans and his wife were not as good as those of the lowest-level black-eyed demon.
Yes, the Winter Solstice God and his wife had low mana, and Lin Ning subdued them without much effort.
Instead, they left the whole body.
Lin Ning told the eager pitcher plant that she could not turn the god of winter solstice into an insect.
It is believed by others.
Fortunately, there is still a Christmas gift. Lin Ning used the dream to blur reality, and "blurred" a grasshopper the size of their living room, so that he could eat his fill.The Christmas gift for the White Queen is also related to this. She blurred the dream into reality and coded the laboratory at home, so that the White Queen can enter her dream.
When Christmas was over, Lin Ning set the family portrait they took this time as a screensaver.The three of them wore the same Christmas sweaters, and compared the scissors hands to the camera, a little silly.
·
Linning's investigation of Azazel and Sam Winchester has come a long way.
The group of people she mentioned earlier are the same group of people as Sam Winchester, they are like children chosen by Azazel, with so-called special abilities, like from Saginaw, Michigan Max Miller, he was able to move and control objects with his mind at first, and killed his father and uncle who had been abusing him all the time. In the end, he couldn't bear the pain and shot himself; like from Oklah Scott Carey of Guthrie, Homer, could electrocute anything, including people, if he wanted to, but so far he hasn't done anything particularly outrageous, In addition to electrocuting his neighbor's cat, which caused him a psychological shadow, for which he went to see a psychiatrist.
Lin Ning learned from his psychiatrist that it was not that he wanted to electrocute the cat, but that a yellow eye was given to him in a dream, forcing him to do things that were in him. Seems like a scary thing.
Beyond that, Scott Carey revealed with his psychiatrist that the yellow-eyed man told him he had a plan for him that involved other people who were also chosen like him, and when the time came , They will gather together and choose the most powerful among them, and this most powerful will become the leader of an army.
Apparently, the man with the yellow eyes was Azazel, and Sam Winchester was one of the chosen ones.
As for this Gu-like plan?Lin Ning is still not very good.
Just an army?That's obviously talking about an army of demons, but a human being the leader of an army of demons?This doesn't make sense, so there must be something deeper.
Lin Ning also found out that the Colt gun was in the hands of John Winchester, but judging from the current situation, the whereabouts of the gun is not optimistic, and John Winchester's death is inseparable from Azazel, which is very likely Maybe this gun fell into the hands of Azaze, so Lin Ning felt that it was necessary to check the manufacturer of the Colt gun, Samuel Colt, and at the same time verify her speculation.
At this time, the holy oil she ordered was sent, and the holy fire produced by lighting the holy oil could trap angels, even archangels.Lin Ning naturally used it to deal with the 'trickster', although they all agreed that he was eliminated, and now that the god of winter solstice has done it, looking back at the 'trickster', it seems to be His approach is easier to accept, after all, all the people he tricks are people with problematic life styles, and even guys with criminal records.
Most importantly, he doesn't eat people.
Thinking of this, Lin Ning wanted to sigh a little. She didn't really want to know what happened to other pagan gods.
Wait, what will happen to her and the gods in the hometown of the pitcher plant?
The author has something to say: There was a Cantonese-speaking Kitchen God, who was instantly overwhelmed by Lucifer ==
Lin Ning was not at ease, and gave it a comprehensive inspection.
In fact, Lin Ning doesn't need to be so restless, it's not that the pitcher plant has simply absorbed "energy" before.The energy here ranges from spiritual power, to magic power, and then to the power of life. In terms of spiritual power, when the pitcher plant first met Lin Ning, it absorbed the overflowing spiritual power from Lin Ning when he ran his spiritual power for a week.

The "trickster" eaten by the pitcher plant now, in layman's terms, is like an external incarnation of the trickster, which only contains part of the energy.
As far as the small stomach of the pitcher plant is concerned, that is not a problem.
After the inspection, Lin Ning was indeed relieved.
Then he was obsessed with studying the magic circle for a period of time. Based on the situation at that time, Lin Ning thought that the spell said by the "trickster" at that time might be a spell that could travel to a parallel world.
Yes, there is such a spell.
It's just that it's not that easy to implement, and the spell is little known.
And the "parallel world" here is not like Lin Ning, who can come without restrictions, but a parallel world that is closely related to the curse-responder.Further expansion is a parallel world where there are also curse-responders. In that parallel world, the curse-responders may have the same identity as the current world, or they may not. It is possible that the current world is an upright and kind person. In addition, the rules of the parallel world may be roughly similar, or they may be very different. It is possible that there are supernatural creatures in the current world, but there are no aliens in the parallel world, and so on.
All in all, it is a parallel world.
cough.
But this is just Lin Ning's own guess, but the identity of the 'trickster' is not that simple anyway.Lin Ning also continued to stare at him, and found that after his avatar disappeared outside his body, he reappeared, all because of a change of place, from Florida to Delaware, which borders Macchilan, to find Got a job as a gatekeeper.

Having said that, there is actually a way to verify whether the 'trickster' is an angel or not.
Lin Ning went to order something else for this matter, and it just so happened that the love story-themed novel represented by "Fifty Shades of Grey" that the White Queen ordered for her arrived.
Under the gaze of the White Queen, Lin Ning picked up "Fifty Shades of Grey" and quickly flipped through it. After reading it, she had a deeper understanding of the story.

This is not an ordinary aggrieved, but Lin Ning did not feel the slightest sympathy. She parked the car on the side of the road and could smell the bloody smell coming from their house.
Lin Ning stepped forward and knocked on their door.
A day later, the news reported that the "male and female thieves" Carrigan and his wife had been arrested.The news said that the couple was a husband-and-wife serial killer, closely related to the two recent kidnappings, and they were even more insane ogres.
The police were able to crack the case because they received an anonymous report. When they arrived at the scene, the Carrigan couple had already killed each other because of the "unequal distribution of spoils".Nevertheless, the police found the victim who had not been eaten in the basement of their home, and found the tooth marks and DNA of the couple on the victim's body, and also found some kind of religious ceremony. Christians, and based on the crime patterns of their couple, it is further suspected that they were both the culprits in the kidnapping case last year.
As soon as the case came out, there was an uproar.
The irony is that after the deeds of the Carrigan couple were exposed, the couple got a group of fanatical admirers, the kind of worship that would write letters to serial killers in prisons, and even be willing to have children for them. The number of believers may be more than those who originally believed in them as the gods of the winter solstice.
Lin Ning didn't know whether it was more ironic, or the fact that the abilities of the Carrigans and his wife were not as good as those of the lowest-level black-eyed demon.
Yes, the Winter Solstice God and his wife had low mana, and Lin Ning subdued them without much effort.
Instead, they left the whole body.
Lin Ning told the eager pitcher plant that she could not turn the god of winter solstice into an insect.
It is believed by others.
Fortunately, there is still a Christmas gift. Lin Ning used the dream to blur reality, and "blurred" a grasshopper the size of their living room, so that he could eat his fill.The Christmas gift for the White Queen is also related to this. She blurred the dream into reality and coded the laboratory at home, so that the White Queen can enter her dream.
When Christmas was over, Lin Ning set the family portrait they took this time as a screensaver.The three of them wore the same Christmas sweaters, and compared the scissors hands to the camera, a little silly.

Linning's investigation of Azazel and Sam Winchester has come a long way.
The group of people she mentioned earlier are the same group of people as Sam Winchester, they are like children chosen by Azazel, with so-called special abilities, like from Saginaw, Michigan Max Miller, he was able to move and control objects with his mind at first, and killed his father and uncle who had been abusing him all the time. In the end, he couldn't bear the pain and shot himself; like from Oklah Scott Carey of Guthrie, Homer, could electrocute anything, including people, if he wanted to, but so far he hasn't done anything particularly outrageous, In addition to electrocuting his neighbor's cat, which caused him a psychological shadow, for which he went to see a psychiatrist.
Lin Ning learned from his psychiatrist that it was not that he wanted to electrocute the cat, but that a yellow eye was given to him in a dream, forcing him to do things that were in him. Seems like a scary thing.
Beyond that, Scott Carey revealed with his psychiatrist that the yellow-eyed man told him he had a plan for him that involved other people who were also chosen like him, and when the time came , They will gather together and choose the most powerful among them, and this most powerful will become the leader of an army.
Apparently, the man with the yellow eyes was Azazel, and Sam Winchester was one of the chosen ones.
As for this Gu-like plan?Lin Ning is still not very good.
Just an army?That's obviously talking about an army of demons, but a human being the leader of an army of demons?This doesn't make sense, so there must be something deeper.
Lin Ning also found out that the Colt gun was in the hands of John Winchester, but judging from the current situation, the whereabouts of the gun is not optimistic, and John Winchester's death is inseparable from Azazel, which is very likely Maybe this gun fell into the hands of Azaze, so Lin Ning felt that it was necessary to check the manufacturer of the Colt gun, Samuel Colt, and at the same time verify her speculation.
At this time, the holy oil she ordered was sent, and the holy fire produced by lighting the holy oil could trap angels, even archangels.Lin Ning naturally used it to deal with the 'trickster', although they all agreed that he was eliminated, and now that the god of winter solstice has done it, looking back at the 'trickster', it seems to be His approach is easier to accept, after all, all the people he tricks are people with problematic life styles, and even guys with criminal records.
Most importantly, he doesn't eat people.
Thinking of this, Lin Ning wanted to sigh a little. She didn't really want to know what happened to other pagan gods.
Wait, what will happen to her and the gods in the hometown of the pitcher plant?
The author has something to say: There was a Cantonese-speaking Kitchen God, who was instantly overwhelmed by Lucifer ==
