Chapter 374: Yin Spirit and Divination
Wang Yu moved his body, grabbed the fat man, and placed him gently on a nearby armchair.
The whole process took no more than three or four breaths, and no one outside could notice all this.
At this time, the fat man had his eyes closed, his face was gray and white, and his body was extremely cold, like a dead person.
The shadow that just entered the fat man's brow was exactly one of the Yin spirits nurtured in the Yin Soul Banner.
This thing also had its ferocity greatly reduced on Blue Star. Otherwise, if an ordinary mortal were possessed by this thing, they would be seriously ill immediately, or die on the spot.
Now, under Wang Yu's deliberate control, this Yin spirit drilled into the fat man's body, only temporarily affecting his consciousness, making the man fall into a coma for a period of time. After the Yin spirit dissipated on its own in his body, there should be no major problems.
This is also one of the most basic means of the Yin Soul Banner to deal with enemies. If it were a cultivator, they could still use protective magical artifacts or spells to protect themselves, but ordinary people on Blue Star have no way to deal with this kind of formless lowest-level ghost.
Wang Yu grabbed the fat man's mobile phone unceremoniously, unlocked the screen with his finger, and checked the latest short messages rapidly.
He used his divine sense to discover just now that when the fat man was taking things at the shelf, he seemed to have sent some message, which made him suspicious.
Sure enough, the latest short message was sent to a person marked "Baoluo" three minutes ago, and the content was very brief, writing "Found gold goods, hurry to me."
Wang Yu sighed, didn't think about it, pinched a spell with one hand, pointed a finger at the fat man's forehead, and another group of Yin spirits entered it.
He changed his mind. Originally, this fat man would only have a minor illness, but now he let the Yin spirit explode before dissipating.
If he did this, even if the fat man wouldn't lose his life, he would be bedridden for several years.
As for the other Yin spirit, it was naturally prepared for that "Baoluo" who might come over immediately.
His original idea of getting a car from elsewhere changed; he rummaged through the obese man's pockets, pulling out dozens of pounds in cash and a set of car keys.
He scanned the vicinity of the grocery store with his divine sense and found a broken blue jeep parked in a simple carport behind the building.
He found a bag, grabbed some simple food and half a bucket of gasoline from the
A moment later, with a roar of the engine, the blue jeep drove out of the shed, followed the street, and sped directly toward the outskirts of the small town.
Not long after, a tall, bald man strode into the shop where Wang Yu had been. Upon seeing the obese man slumped unconscious against the back of his chair, he was immediately startled, shouted "Jack," and reached out to help his companion up.
But the instant his palm touched the obese man's body, he felt a chill in his arm, as if something had burrowed into his body. He was shocked and, before he could react, suddenly felt a chill in his head and likewise flipped over and collapsed.
This time, a full two hours later, a woman finally walked into the shop, but a moment later, she let out a piercing scream that startled the others in the houses near the street.
……
Several levels beneath the castle, in a hall filled with various modern surveillance screens.
Dozens of civilian personnel in military uniforms were shuttling rapidly in front of various instruments, reporting various pieces of information from time to time.
A blonde, blue-eyed woman, wearing an eye-catching major general's uniform, stood with her arms crossed in front of the largest central screen, her beautiful face devoid of any expression.
Behind the woman, Du Xiaohong, with her long black hair, had also changed into a field-grade officer's uniform and stood behind the blonde woman, her face still somewhat pale.
Beside Du Xiaohong stood another middle-aged man wearing a black tailcoat; his hair was slightly gray, and he wore a faint smile, but his gaze was equally cold and stern.
"Team One has finished checking all ground-level buildings; no trace of the suspect has been found."
"Team Two has finished checking all rooms on the first underground level and has not found any trace of the suspect; we are starting the check of the second underground level immediately."
"Team Three has finished checking two-thirds of the ventilation ducts; there have been no discoveries yet."
"Report: The drone swarm has finished searching the land within a twenty-mile radius; thermal detection has found no trace of the suspect."
"The rapid response security team is on standby and ready to depart at any time."
"There are no abnormal findings from the nearby hidden sentries for the time being."
……
The blonde, blue-eyed woman listened to the various reports, her expression gradually turning gloomy, yet she coldly began issuing orders:
"Order Team One to immediately begin checking all possible hiding spots near the castle, and have Team Two speed up the search of the second underground level.
Order Team Three to rendezvous with the rapid response security team immediately after checking the ventilation ducts. Have the drone swarm return to recharge and continue expanding the search radius.
Order the rapid response security team to remain on standby. Immediately connect to the 'Sky Army' and apply for temporary usage rights of the surveillance satellite 'Dawn Angel' in my name. Once authorization is granted, begin searching all areas with human activity within a hundred-mile radius immediately."
"Yes."
"Yes."
……
A series of affirmative responses came from the many civilian personnel responsible for communications, and orders were rapidly transmitted down the line.
"Captain, do you really want to apply for the usage rights of the Dawn Angel? The Sky Army department probably won't agree easily, and is it really necessary?" The middle-aged man in the tailcoat finally couldn't help but speak up after his eyes flickered a few times.
"Of course it is necessary. You must know that this 'Number One' is the only person from the 'Setan World' to return to China, and he also brought back a great deal of intelligence regarding the supernatural powers of that world.
According to intelligence our country has obtained, China has even begun developing this power, and in the past year or so, they have achieved quite a few astonishing results, and this Number One is the key to it all. That is why the Sky Army department will approve the application," the blonde beauty replied without hesitation.
"In that case, this Number One is truly extraordinary. No wonder the higher-ups sacrificed so many ability users for this.
Come to think of it, in the last six months, China has suddenly been vigorously promoting ancient martial arts techniques, encouraging the public to open various martial arts halls, and even implementing that so-called 'Four-Form Body Strengthening Method' in primary and middle schools. Could this be related to the Setan World intelligence that Number One brought back?" the man in the tailcoat asked thoughtfully upon hearing this.
"Perhaps. These measures by China have also made the higher-ups very curious, which is why I spared no cost to get this Number One here.
Now it seems he really isn't an ordinary ability user; he truly possesses the supernatural powers of the Setan World. That makes it even more important that we don't let him get away.
How are your preparations coming along? If there is no news in another ten minutes, we will have to rely on your ability to find him. I didn't implant a tracker in his body that day for fear that Number One would discover something unusual, but just in case, I had you tamper with him. Now is the time for you to play your part," the blonde woman said coldly.
"Give it twenty minutes. Although the ritual I left on Number One beforehand couldn't possibly be discovered, this divination ability of mine will evaporate a large amount of blood from my body. Using it frequently will consume my lifespan, and the accuracy is only eighty percent at best. It's better not to use it if we don't have to," the man in the tailcoat replied reluctantly after his face twitched.
"Twenty minutes, then twenty minutes it is. Go wait in the room next door and await my orders at any time," the blonde woman ordered coldly after a flash in her eyes.
