"Leopard Head Cry" seems unreliable, but it can actually be used as a very strong control skill.
After all, when Dafu and his enemies cried together.
Lin Xiao could carry the big sword and watch calmly.
As the quality of Dafu's cards evolves to the epic level, its various abilities in duels have improved.
Overall, Lin Xiao is very satisfied with this evolution and breakthrough. It shows that Dafu's European spirit is quite guaranteed.
He manifested the "Emperor Seal" with snow-white fur and gold, rubbed Dafu's round face, and said:
"I wish there would be news about the next demon as soon as possible!"
"Oh..." Dafu made a vague throaty sound while his face was being rubbed.
Even if you say so, the devil will not show up easily...
Lin Xiao has asked Chu Yun and the others to collect information about the Demon God. It does not necessarily have to be accurate information. He can also be informed of commissions that are suspected to be related to the Demon God.
The next day, Sunday, early morning.
Lin Xiao received a message from Chu Yun, saying that there was indeed a suspicious commission within the investigation team recently, but the commission had already been taken away.
"What is the specific content of the commission?"
"Investigating the frequent serial disappearances of women in Xingtu City."
Chu Yundao said: "The suspicious thing is that the missing woman was rediscovered a few days later. Her body organs were not damaged, but there were some abnormalities in her nerves."
Lin Xiao: "Amnesia?"
Chu Yun shook his head: "I visited three of the victims. It's not so much that their memories are damaged, but their hearts are damaged. They showed strong fear and uneasiness, and the things that originally gave them peace of mind were lost.
Already."
"Sounds like a part of the demon god's resurrection ritual."
Lin Xiao nodded slightly: "I will pay attention."
"You have perfectly integrated into the identity of the 'dark hero who saved Star Map City'." Chu Yun complained.
"It's not to save Star Map City." Lin Xiao said, "It's to make a lot of money."
On Sunday, "temporary worker" Jolina walked into the office of the leader of the investigation team, and Margaret put down the documents in her hand upon hearing the sound.
"Here you are." Margaret pushed the document, "The information for the next commission is ready."
Jolina picked up the file, browsed it quickly, and asked: "Card Faller?"
"Whether it is a card-falling master or a monster is still unclear."
Margaret crossed her fingers: "Because the victims are all female, the risk of your investigation is higher. I suggest that it would be wiser for you to accept other commissions."
"No need to worry about it." Jolina noticed that the reward was a fifth-level material, suitable for strengthening "Snowy Owl". She put down the document and said calmly: "I will accept this commission."
"You are really neat and tidy." Margaret smiled, "Then, I will wait for good news."
Walking out of the office, Qiao Linna clicked on the light screen projection to check for a more detailed commission introduction:
The missing women have no particularly consistent characteristics. Their ages range from 18 to 40 years old, and their occupations vary widely.
The only thing that can be said to be similar is that these women are all popular. They all have certain characteristics that are popular, such as confidence, bravery, enthusiasm...
Jolina frowned slightly, but how could the prisoner tell whether a woman was welcome?
Is this a coincidence or intentional?
It was already dark, and on the streets with closed shops on both sides, a girl in red with slender legs was walking alone, her eyes full of thought.
This is the place where the last woman disappeared, and the possibility of the prisoner returning to the place of the crime is not small.
The missing women were found again a few days after the incident, but their charming qualities were missing... What happened to them?
Jolina's ruby left eye glowed, and the color of her pupils gradually turned into beautiful amber gold.
Under the effect of the Eye of Horus 'seeing through reality', the dark alleys appear black and yellow like camera film.
On the ground in the field of vision, there are faint traces of source power, like white flames.
"The source of fire?"
Jolina frowned.
No, the victims are all ordinary people who have no fire, while the monsters have no fire.
Obviously, the murderer is a card master. Card masters who target ordinary people have fallen into the category of card masters!
Jolina stared at the strange floor tiles. At that time, the card master was standing on the floor tiles, activating the source of power... Suddenly, a surprise call came from behind her head.
"Why are you here!"
The girl with braids stood behind her, speaking with surprise, she was one of Jolina's few friends, "Carlo".
"Ah... I happened to be passing by." Jolina turned around with a calm expression, and the golden color in her eyes faded.
She looked at "Carlo", her eyes suddenly sharp, her eyes ignited with blazing golden light, and she quickly drew the gun and fired!
"Caro" reacted very quickly, stretched out his right palm to condense a barrier of energy, blocked the bullet with a bang, and escaped quickly at the same time.
Qiao Linna looked at the fleeing figure in embarrassment, but did not chase after her rashly. Her red eyes were piercing, and she said in a stunned tone:
"Hey...when exactly did you get tricked?"
Even I was disturbed at first and mistook the enemy as 'Carlo'.
What if you are an ordinary person? When you see a familiar friend, you are most likely to go up and say hello.
This ability is biased towards 'illusion', and I should have been affected since I saw the white flame.
Just the remaining traces of source power can possess such powerful 'hallucinogenic' abilities.
Jolina crossed her arms, thought calmly, and murmured:
"The power of the devil..."
She looked towards the direction where the card-falling master fled.
"The murderer of the serial disappearances is most likely a believer of the devil..."
And the devil who targets women.
The image of Asmodeus, the demon of lust, appeared in Jolina's mind.
Legend has it that this demon possessed a human woman. Because he liked this human woman and could not tolerate her having a husband, he killed all her husband and future husbands.
In mythology, Asmodeus often appears as breathing fire, riding a dragon, and holding a military flag.
The invisible hallucinogenic ability just now is indeed consistent with the characteristics of 'lust'.
After thinking for a long time, Jolina sighed and decided to give up the commission.
There is no other reason. An A-level commission may involve the Demon God of Original Sin, so there is no need to accept it.
But if someone is interested in the demon incident and has the corresponding confidence.
I can be his helper and get a share of the demon incident.
Thus... strive to break through the sixth level before the end of the summer vacation.
Qiao Linna folded her arms, and the image of Lin Xiao naturally appeared in her mind, and she fell into deep thought.
In the alley, a figure fled quickly. After confirming that there were no pursuers, he leaned against the wall to catch his breath.
This is a middle-aged man who looks like an office worker, but the flickering fire in his palm shows his identity as a card master.
His philosophy on fire is very simple: work hard to make money and want his wife and daughters to live a better life.
But a sudden tsunami in the Golden State swallowed up his wife and daughter, and he lost his faith in life from then on.
Until a week ago, he saw his daughter again in his dream. The daughter held a bright fire in her hand, handed a handful of white flames to the man's palm, and told him:
"Dad, I was seriously injured, but I believe you can heal me."
When he woke up, the man burst into tears and secretly made up his mind to act according to his daughter's guidance.
Even though he knew that this was just a dream, and that there was a demon lurking behind it, but...what if.
With this idea in mind, he used the "hallucinogenic" ability given by the white flame to kidnap women one after another.
Following the guidance of the daughter beside her, she extracted a trace of mist-like substance from their temples and merged it into the flames.
His daughter told him that this would not hurt women, but would make his daughter healthier, more popular, and more understanding of people's hearts...
The man vaguely realized that this was wrong.
However, when he saw the woman in red and his daughter whispered in his ear, the man couldn't help but take action.
When you realize that the other party is also a card master, it is already too late.
The man is timid and cowardly. He can't even protect his family. He can only hide in the corner and attack ordinary people. How dare he fight against the card master...
He leaned against the wall, panting, and took off his glasses with trembling hands.
The alley was dark, there was no moonlight at all, and the light of the street lamp was completely blocked. The man raised his head blankly, and a swordsman in black armor who looked like a ghost reflected in his eyes.
"You, you..." the man's lips trembled, "don't kill me..."
"I won't kill you."
The man in black armor coldly stretched out his heavy sword and placed it across the man's neck:
"Tell me, everything you know about the Demon God."
"Demon...Demon?"
"Didn't you kidnap those girls to resurrect the devil?"
"No!" The man burst out with rare anger, his neck red, "That's not it...I, I am doing it for my daughter...I couldn't do it before, but I can resurrect her now!"
Lin Xiao looked at the man from head to toe, gradually understood everything, and said coldly:
"People cannot live in illusions... Please forgive me."
The man's eyes suddenly darkened, and his body was like a popped balloon, leaning against the wall.
He looked up at Lin Xiao again, his eyes revealing humiliation, anger and hatred.
"Dad, he lied to you." A low whisper came from his ear.
"I know he lied to me..." The man whispered into the air.
"So, can you defeat him for me?"
"I don't know, but I will try to do it..."
The man stood up unsteadily, raised his bloodshot eyes, and a white flame ignited from the fire in his palm. The terrifying aura of the devil enveloped the entire alley in an instant.
At this time, he heard his daughter's long-lost laughter. Even if he was helping others to do evil, it had meaning at this moment.
The epee man looked at the man whose eyes were blood red and full of tears, and said calmly:
"There is no shame in a man crying when he is sad."
"Shut up!" the man roared angrily, white flames ignited in his palms, and he punched the epee man's mask with his fist.
Bang!
Lin Xiao squeezed the man's fist with one hand and called:
"Dafu."
"Oh!" The light particles condensed into a white and fat little seal.
"Use Leopard Head Cry."
Dafu lay on the ground, holding his head with his two little paws, as if he was brewing emotions, tears gradually oozing out of his eyes:
"Ooo...(つД｀)???"
The man looked at the little seal in confusion.
However, there was an inexplicable surge of sadness in the bottom of my heart, and a heart-wrenching sadness surged up, as if I suddenly realized that there was no way back.
He knelt down on the ground, followed Dafu's example and held his head. First he choked and sobbed, and then he burst into tears.
The man with the heavy sword looked at his right palm expressionlessly. With the suction of the 'Gluttony Black Hole', a piece of white jade-shaped fragment flew out of the man's body and came into his hand.
"Fragments of Lust: Fragments of white jade as smooth as suet, which can create hallucinations."
As the fragments disappeared, the man could no longer hear his daughter's voice and cried with his head in his arms.
He has broken away from the illusion and realized that everything he did was a scam by the devil, and he became a card-destroying master.
But at least in the end...I heard my daughter's laughter again.
"Dwelling on the past makes you weak."
Lin Xiao looked down at the man: "Only by looking forward can you be saved."
"Now, can we talk about the information you know?" Lin Xiao said.
The man shook his head in despair.
A siren sounded from the distance in the alley.
Dafu had been taken back by Lin Xiao, but the man was still crying.
Boom!
The man with the heavy sword, who was slightly bored, knocked the man unconscious with the back of his sword, then turned around and thought about his next strategy.
I got a "Fragment of Lust" from a man and initially understood the ability of the Demon of Lust, which is to create hallucinations.
However, the exact resurrection plan of the Color Domain Demon God and his specific location are currently unknown.
This man is a card-killing master who was taken advantage of, and legal sanctions are waiting for him.
What he really wants to solve is the demon behind it...
Lin Xiao got on the motorcycle, reviewed the duel just now, and murmured to himself:
"The Card Faller kidnaps women and gets something from them to nourish the Demon God of Lust... What exactly is that thing..."
"I guess it's a 'popular trait'," Jolina said.
The epee man looked up and saw a beam of light and a beautiful figure on the back of a red motorcycle, who smiled at him.
The two left the alley, leaving the unconscious Card Master to the police, and arrived to talk under a streetlight.
"Why are you here?" Lin Xiao took off his helmet and asked.
"The commission to investigate the missing women was originally accepted by me."
Qiao Linna said calmly: "I was about to give up. I heard the noise and came over to take a look. I saw Dafu crying with him."
"That's it." Lin Xiao nodded.
Jolina glanced at the epee man: "I will not take the entrustment reward in vain. The first thing is the intelligence I analyzed..."
"The followers of the Demon God of Lust extract "popular traits" from women, so that the Demon God of Lust can learn from humans and become popular."
Qiao Linna thought about it and said: "Being loved by others may be the condition for the resurrection of the Demon God of Lust..."
"It sounds like an idol - you can only make your debut if you are liked by others." Lin Xiao complained.
Jolina sighed and said: "As far as the card-dropping master just now is concerned, the Demon God of Lust has the ability to create illusions and confuse people's hearts... I suggest that we investigate in this direction."
"Come and join this operation...because your ability is very good at resisting illusions." Lin Xiao invited.
"To tell you the truth, I need sixth-level materials as reward."
Qiao Linna stared into Lin Xiao's eyes, then looked away, and said calmly:
"Of course, if you are in financial distress, the remuneration can be considered separately..."
