Dream Travel

Chapter 280 Who will ask?
He was unfamiliar with the social customs and interpersonal relationships in Rota City, but the world was just as he perceived it.

Although White Curtain doesn't have a good impression of the Demon Hunters, it doesn't make her prejudiced against them.

After all, they seemed to be really professional at dealing with demons; the demon that could violate the city's defense agreement was actually killed with a single shot.

It is conceivable that with the city defense agreement in place, even a powerful alien creature would find it difficult to pose a direct threat to the city.

The person who fired the shot may not be strong, but the weapon they used could definitely pose a threat.

At the same time, Bai Mu also gained a relative understanding of the city defense protocol. Referring to the situation of that demon cultist, he could roughly understand the trigger threshold of the city defense protocol.

"Troublesome? If you find it troublesome, they might not even be willing to share information with you." Borre glanced at the white screen: "If there's nothing else, don't bother me. I'm still working."

"Okay, I'll contact you again when you have time." Having failed to achieve her goal, Bai Mu decided not to waste any more time there.

The authorities may be all-powerful, but they are not all-powerful.

At least in matters outside their area of ​​responsibility, the bureau seems powerless to help with many things.

Come to think of it, if a department can manage this and that, how much power would it have?
Each department should just do its own job; doing anything else is overstepping its bounds.

After Bai Mu left, Bo Lei immediately took out the notes he had left behind and began to polish and transcribe them, removing what should not be described and adding the missing parts.

A normal transcript was quickly completed. In terms of content, the transcript was no different from the original, but the arrangement of the information had been rearranged.

The Demon of Light and Shadow...

Borei frowned slightly, pondering why such a demon would pay attention to Rota City.

There are indeed many unfriendly demons in Rota City, but with the demon-hunting force around, those things don't dare to cause trouble.

The demon hunters deal with not only demons, but also vampires and other dark creatures.

According to the information Borei knew, someone in Rota City had caused a major incident, and the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics was involved in handling that incident.

The incident began when someone who had deciphered the demonic script attempted to summon a demonic dream using the Dream Source...

It sounds like something that can be summarized in a single sentence, but in reality, there aren't many people who can accomplish it. First of all, smuggling Dream Source is a very troublesome matter, which can filter out most people.

Deciphering demonic script is another matter entirely; most native demons are not good people, and their arrival has brought a great deal of demonic script to the reality.

However, the original demons possessed different types of demonic scripts and had no relevant knowledge in reality, which directly led to the original demons starting to cause trouble.

Since few people in reality understand the demonic script they possess, the right to interpret the demonic script lies in the hands of those primordial demons.

The meaning of each demonic script remains unchanged, but its interpretation can be altered during its propagation...

This leads to many people who covet demonic power and try to decipher demonic script being utterly ruined by it.

Demonic writing may indeed possess power, but if its meaning is misunderstood, it can easily make one a sacrifice to the demon.

Therefore, those who use the Dream Source to summon demons bring a bunch of primordial demons into reality.

If it were just one, that would be fine, but the problem is a whole bunch!
There are already enough primordial demons in reality, and then a bunch more... It's fortunate that person died quickly enough, otherwise the other party would have had to undergo an unprecedented trial.

In this incident, the demon-hunting forces of Rota City played a significant role, eliminating a group of primordial demons that had escaped from the dream world.

This interception served as a kind of screening; the weaker demons all died, while the stronger ones escaped. However, this incident didn't have much impact on Rota City, as the troublemakers were carrying out the summoning on the city's outskirts.

In places like the Upper City, more demons would remain, but the consequences would be quite severe.

There are many native demons on the Rota City blacklist, but the Light and Shadow Demons are not included in this list.

Since Bai Mu came here specifically to inquire about the Light and Shadow Demon Luxenbra, it's likely that he intends to take action against this primordial demon.

However, beings like primal demons vary in strength. It was only by consuming two demon followers that a temporary demon that violated the defense agreement was created.

Such a primordial demon is no weakling. If Bai Mu goes looking for trouble with this demon, he is very likely to get himself into trouble.

The White Curtain is beyond the reach of even defense agreements; dealing with such a primordial demon would be an easy way to get wiped out.

Borei should keep an eye on this matter and contact the Demon Hunter team later to find out what this Shadow Demon is all about.

After contacting people he knew at the police station, Borre handed over the statement to them, and then went to meet another group of people, investigators from the Ministry of the Interior.

No, they can't really be called investigators. Investigating the White Curtain was just a side mission; their main objective was the technology of the Condensed Ghost.

However, the attention from the Ministry of the Interior cannot be ignored. The White Curtain has returned, so the attitude of the Bureau of Handling Affairs needs to be expressed.

After all, the Ministry of the Interior's attitude was too clear; they would have to contact the Ministry of the Interior sooner or later.

The written record by Bai Mu was quickly sent to the Demon Hunter team.

“The demon Lexenbra? Where is the demon?” A member of the demon-hunting team scratched his head; they had suddenly been assigned this investigation task.

Confirming the identity of this demon...

Generally speaking, the demons they need to investigate are mostly not local demons, or they are demons that have been attracted by people who pursue demonic power.

Just like the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics deals with the issue of strange dreams, the Demon Hunter Squad has always been dealing with matters related to demons.

"If we had known from the beginning, we wouldn't have needed to investigate."

"Okay, let's contact the person who provided the information first." The person who was assigned the task looked at his teammate: "Xiao Hong, you go and contact him."

"...Why me?" Iris Red was reluctant to go.

"We can't go, can we?" The person who spoke looked at his teammates, who were mostly burly older men.

And there were two others with scary tattoos on their bodies; they didn't look like good people at all.

Although those tattoos are considered 'holy script' and have a destructive effect against demons, to ordinary people, these powerful holy scripts seem very frivolous.

In the past, people might have thought they were gangsters collecting protection money.

Among the group, Xiao Hong, with her rosy lips, fair skin, and fit figure, seemed the easiest to get along with—at least on the surface.

"Why not? It would be simpler for you to go and question them." Iris Red frowned slightly; at least the presence of a few roughnecks would be enough to intimidate them.

She was afraid she wouldn't be able to resist hitting someone.
