"Do you know what this means?" Upton asked himself. "This means that the other party is either a ghost, so he ignored my detection. Or the other party is a similar person who is far stronger than me, and he has
Means to block my ability and make my ability ineffective."
This is the source of Upton's fear.
The key point is that whether it is a ghost or a powerful creature of the same kind, his abilities are disabled. If he really encounters him, his life may not be in danger.
"I feel scared when I think about it now..." Upton said.
Lynn and Reiner, who were sitting in the back row, couldn't help but look at each other and reconsider whether to continue pursuing the case.
What happened to Upton was strange.
It's difficult to deal with him, but it's also helpless to deal with Linn and Reiner.
Is it really a ghost, or a powerful being of the same kind, maybe two months later, there are still clues left for them to notice?
You must know that the General Administration of Public Security sent a large number of additional police officers to investigate, including some [extraordinary people] like Upton.
They didn't find any clues at that time. After so long, the probability of finding it by just the two of them was very slim.
And even if it is found, the murderer was able to block the ability of the [Transcendent] two months ago. How powerful will it be in two months? Can the two of them handle it?
What's more, we can't rule out the possibility that if the other party is really a cleanup personnel, he has died during a mission in the past two months.
"Then we really need to reconsider changing the target mission." After a while, Lin En said.
This is not a difficult decision to make.
He and Reiner did not identify the Joker murder case and had the idea that it must be solved.
Knowing that the feasibility of a project is extremely low, but insisting on trying it, you are a fool.
The file room of the General Public Security Bureau contains unsolved cases that can last for days and nights. Lynn, Reiner and the others have a wide range of choices!
Joker Murder Case doesn't work, just look at something else.
The past few days were originally used to screen cases and find the most suitable trigger task.
"You really need to listen to my advice on this matter. I know you are powerful and not ordinary people, but there are risks that you really don't need to face." Upton was truly worried about the safety of the two of them.
After all, if Linn and Reiner didn't know the truth and tried to solve the clown murder case, they both failed and died in the end.
He finally became an elite disciple of the God's Gift Society, but he would still be reduced to a mere commander within the society, with no one to rely on.
"Well, we will listen to your opinion." Reiner nodded slightly and decided to use tonight to further determine the goal after going back.
There are only two days left. If you try to trigger the Level 4 mission without making sufficient preparations, the result may not be optimistic.
"By the way, the start time of this mission is January 25th, which happens to coincide with the time when the awakened ones perform the mission. If you want to ensure that you complete the mission with high quality, you'd better find a way to avoid the awakened ones.
Similar level." Upton reminded.
Lin En suddenly calculated and realized that at the time of this mission, the [Transcendent One] and the [Awakened One] really collided.
The last time the two missions coincided, Linn had an intersection with Reiner for the first time.
If it hadn't been for that time, the future of both of them would have changed dramatically.
As for what Upton said, the meaning is very simple.
According to the rules, [Awakened One] can trigger tasks of up to three levels of difficulty.
If [Extraordinary] wants to actively trigger a level four difficulty mission, it needs to avoid bumping into [Awakened] if the mission dates of both parties coincide.
If [Extraordinary] does not want to be unlucky and encounter a mission with level 4 difficulty, then it is not a bad thing that the mission dates overlap. You can deliberately find [Awakened] to trigger the mission together. In this way, the difficulty of the mission will be limited to three at most due to the rules.
class.
Although Level 3 is quite difficult to deal with, it is still much better than dealing with Level 4.
"Anyway, I don't have as high a pursuit as you. I firmly believe that the one who survives to the end is the winner, so this time I plan to find a fellow awakener to perform the mission together. This way, the difficulty will be at most three levels, and the danger will be controlled to the maximum extent.
Within the acceptable range." Upton said to himself.
"Let's try to stay at level four. A seemingly difficult task, and with the teaming up of two extraordinary beings, the difficulty will basically be fixed at level four." Reiner also insisted on his attitude.
"Sigh... Then if you need anything from me, just tell me." Upton couldn't win over the two of them, so he had to do his best to improve their probability of survival.
"Okay." Linn agreed.
After consulting on the Joker murder case and getting important information as a precedent, he naturally wouldn't mind asking Upton more questions.
If Upton can't answer something, he can even talk to Ulysses.
This is called making full use of surrounding resources.
Not long after, the car drove back to the General Public Security Bureau, and the group parked the car and went straight to the canteen.
After finishing dinner, they each returned to their respective offices.
Back in the office, Reiner chatted with Linn and hurried to his desk at the same time, quickly wrote a line of words and showed it to Linn.
[We may be eavesdropped, so we should change our conversation to a safer place]
"It's not a big problem." Linn said, "Although Upton can be invisible, he must get close to us if he wants to eavesdrop on us. Once he gets close to us and tries to eavesdrop, my perception will alert me immediately."
"Then it's best to be cautious. After all, we can't guarantee that what Upton said is everything he said. He may not be hiding some of his strength." Reiner reminded.
Calculating time, Upton is also a strong man who has completed almost seven or eight [Transcendent] level missions.
His scheming and strength are not just as 'harmless' as they appear on the surface.
"Understood." Lin En agreed with Reiner's vigilance.
Especially since they were in the whirlpool of the three major forces, even if they were careful, they would face many dangers, not to mention the dire consequences of making a wrong step.
"What do you think about the mission?" Reiner crossed his arms and sat on the sofa.
This topic was not something that was avoided by Upton, so he started talking about it directly in the office.
Lin En was too distracted by various forces and did not make detailed plans for the task for a while: "If this really doesn't work, then we will study the other two cases. We originally screened out three cases, right?
To deal with this situation.”
"I think... we can still fight for the clown murder case." Reiner made it clear what he meant.
This sentence surprised Linn a little.
He knew that Reiner was not a person who liked to make trouble randomly. Since he was willing to say this, he must have a very persistent opinion: "What do you think?"
"There are still many doubts about this case, and there are many omissions in Upton's explanation of the situation at the time. I think that we did not make enough efforts on this case and gave up the investigation just because of a few words from others.
The idea is a bit too strong to withstand the test." Reiner said, "Of course, I'm not saying that we have to investigate, we will definitely be able to break it. I just think that whether we can break it or not, we have to do our best in the end.
