Chapter 29: The Surprise Attack
Chapter 29: The Surprise Attack
"Mr. Su, the helicopter is ready, but it has limited space and cannot carry a large number of armed personnel, so we cannot guarantee a complete blockade of Kim Sonsa Temple. Why don't we wait a bit? The military should be able to blockade the entire Kim Sonsa Temple within an hour."
Captain Liu has already made arrangements for all aspects, but it's too rushed, and the personnel in all areas simply can't keep up.
"No need to wait. This time the target isn't a mindless ghost; it won't be stupid enough to wait in the same spot."
That's a Ghost Master. If news of this place leaks out, or even if he notices something unusual in the surroundings, he will definitely run away immediately. Once the opportunity is missed, it will be troublesome to deal with him again, and he might even be forced to take desperate measures and cause even bigger trouble!
I'll go first. You all immediately set up a city-wide cordon. This dangerous person must not be allowed to leave Jinshan Temple alive.
Even without orders from above, Su Qin would kill any foreign demon slayer who was causing trouble in the city. It was a matter of principle; such heretics must be met with zero tolerance.
Moreover, Su Qin was very interested in that strange monocle, which he suspected was a supernatural object related to consciousness. How could he miss such a good thing?
Su Qin quickly packed his things: three golden body bags left behind by his two teammates, a golden pistol, and grabbed his backpack, rushing out.
As Su Qin walked to the entrance of the police station, he suddenly felt like he was being watched.
Someone has triggered the killing pattern of the vengeful spirit within me; someone is monitoring me.
Su Qin decisively used his supernatural abilities and found the source of the spying sensation. He used this supernatural medium to look at the rooftop of the building opposite.
boom!
At the same moment, a muffled thunderous explosion came from afar.
A golden object appeared in Su Qin's line of sight. It was about ten centimeters in diameter and forty or fifty centimeters long, like a golden fish, and was flying towards Su Qin at an extremely fast speed.
How could fish fall from the sky? And golden fish at that?
"So what if you're a Ghost Master? Regardless of whether the Number One clone can extract any information, if you dare to step out of this door, you'll die!"
No matter how brilliant your mind is, no matter how terrifying the demons you control, one hit from a cannon and you're dead for sure. Even Jesus couldn't save you!
The foreign man was very confident about the thing in his hand.
This is no ordinary fire poker; the cannonball is made of gold and filled with a large amount of gold powder, making it hundreds of times more powerful than a gold bullet.
I have never heard of any Ghost Master who can withstand this thing. Even those monsters with Ghost Realm abilities would be blown to smithereens before they could even activate their Ghost Realm abilities if they were caught off guard.
The foreign man was still admiring his work with pride, completely unaware that a phantom, eerie ghost hand was crossing space and grabbing at his head.
Ultimately, the hand targeted the monocle on the foreign man's eye socket.
In a corner of the lobby on the first floor of the Security Bureau, a person was huddled in the corner, breathing heavily, with cold sweat dripping from his forehead. This person was Su Qin.
"That was close, so close! Luckily, I reacted in time."
Luckily, I used my supernatural powers in time and managed to pass through the wall and hide in a corner.
While dodging the howitzer attack, he didn't waste any time and immediately launched a supernatural attack on the person who attacked him. He saw the person's appearance clearly; he was a foreigner, but the monocle on his eye socket proved that he was the owner of the consciousness entity in the interrogation room earlier.
Su Qin launched an attack immediately, targeting the monocle made of crystal.
Everything went smoothly; the foreign man hadn't noticed anything unusual.
It caught it. The ghostly hand unsurprisingly grabbed the monocle and ripped it off the foreign man's eye socket.
The foreign man, who had been smug, froze for a moment, but then resumed his actions, took out a brand new monocle from his pocket and put it on, exactly the same as the previous one.
Su Qin's ghostly hand was already empty; there was no monocle anywhere, as if he had never possessed it.
"What's going on? I clearly took that damn monocle away, so how did it end up back on him? Is it a hallucination? Or is it really impossible to take it away? Could it be a ghost?"
No, it shouldn't be a ghost realm; there are no signs of it affecting the surrounding area.
Forget it, let's kill this foreigner first. He dared to use a howitzer on me; even if the King of Heaven himself came, I'd still kill him today.
Although Su Qin didn't understand what was going on with the monocle, he didn't care anymore and launched an attack on the foreign man directly. This time, the ghost hand's target was his head.
The foreign man had already come to his senses and realized the seriousness of the situation.
"Damn yellow-skinned pig, what kind of monster is it? Even a grenade launcher can't kill you! Since it can't be killed by bombs, then I'll just use a vengeful ghost to kill you and make everyone around you pay with their lives!"
The foreign man's eyes were filled with a twisted and crazed emotion. He raised his hands and clapped them forcefully.
However, his palms stopped abruptly just before they touched, and he stood there dumbfounded, the light in his eyes quickly fading, and his monocle suddenly shattered.
An unseen ghostly hand was gripping his head, forcefully prying a transparent, unidentified object out of it. But the instant the transparent object left his head, his monocle shattered, and the transparent object shattered along with it.
The foreign man's body froze on the spot, and his body began to rapidly transform into a corpse, while his entire appearance also began to change.
The distinctly European features on its body quickly disappeared, transforming into a strange Asian face, but it was still a corpse that was beyond dead.
Su Qin's gaze had been fixed on the foreign man, and he was taken aback when he saw this strange phenomenon.
"What happened? How did you suddenly become a different person?"
This guy isn't the original body either! Did he take over someone else's body?
The monocle was also broken, so it seems he really wasn't the original body. But why didn't the corpse in the interrogation room change?
What exactly are the differences?
Also, what did that guy mean by suddenly clapping his hands just now?
Could it be that he controls other supernatural entities?
Su Qin did not think that it was a meaningless and superfluous action.
As a demon slayer, the first reaction to a supernatural attack is definitely related to the supernatural.
"It seems we need to think this through carefully. The other party appears to be controlling two ghosts. We must be careful, or we could lose our lives."
The corpse that served as the clone was completely normal; it was just an ordinary corpse.
This means that the source of the unfinished supernatural attack was not the corpse itself, but rather the ghost tamer's true form.
In other words, the clone can carry some of the supernatural elements of the original body.
"We absolutely cannot let him leave Jinshi alive. If we let this kind of eerie ghost master escape, he will take revenge on us in the future. Even ten lives wouldn't be enough for him."
Su Qin was determined to kill this ghost tamer. Today, only one of the two ghost tamers could leave alive, otherwise, there would be endless trouble.
At this moment, a large group of people rushed out of the security bureau, all fully armed, and vigilantly searched the surrounding area.
"Damn it! This is utterly lawless!"
However, seeing that Su Qin was safe and sound, he breathed a sigh of relief.
If Su Qin were to be blown up, the situation would be completely out of control. Even if he, as the captain of the criminal investigation team, wasn't executed, he would definitely not have a good ending.
"I've already killed the person who attacked the police station. The body is on the roof of the building across the street. Send someone to collect it. I'm heading to Kim Sonsa Temple right now. Hopefully, I can still make it in time."
Su Qin pointed to the building across the street, then ran without hesitation toward the helicopter parked in the parking lot. He wasn't sure what to expect either.
That Ghost Master was incredibly fast. I wonder if he already knew what Su Qin was going to do and was planning to intercept him, or if he had planned it all along and laid an ambush with his clone to strike first.
It's still quite a distance from here to Kim Seon-ji Temple. Even at full speed, it would probably take more than ten minutes by the time he arrived. By then, the demon tamer might have already escaped.
