I made up myths in America

Chapter 7 Event Fermentation
Two hours later.

4:30 AM New York time.

In a special conference room at NYPD headquarters at 1 Police Plaza in Lower Manhattan.

Sitting in the small room were officials holding terrifyingly high positions, including the White House Chief of Staff, the Mayor of New York City, and the Commissioner of the New York Police Department. The atmosphere was eerily solemn.

"call"

George Gently, who is usually considered a big shot, has the lowest position in this conference room. If this case didn't happen to be within his jurisdiction, he wouldn't even be qualified to be here.

"This is the surveillance footage we pulled from the Brooklyn Heights property."

"From the video, it can be seen that Luke Duncan's speed, strength, and defense are far beyond the scope of ordinary humans."

George Gently inserted a disposable USB drive into a device that was physically disconnected from the network.

The USB flash drive will be destroyed after being unplugged, and will then be physically shattered. In addition, all devices and mobile phones in this room will be unable to connect to the outside world.

The projector projects images onto the screen in the conference room. Although there is no sound, it does not affect the overall viewing experience.

In the picture, the middle-aged man who looked a little thin showed a terrifying power that was completely inhuman.

With just a slight touch, he knocked a big hole in the reinforced concrete wall.

Then, when two New York police officers arrived, the bullets were unable to penetrate his seemingly thin skin.

This scene, which has only been seen in Hollywood movies, made everyone present stare at it intently, and their heartbeats unconsciously quickened.

William Daley, the 61-year-old White House Chief of Staff who has become the second most powerful person in Washington, turned his head to look at George Gentry. There was still some disbelief in his blue eyes, or perhaps it was the instinctive suspicion of a politician.

He said in a low voice, "Sheriff George, I'd like to know if there is any other evidence besides this video that I can take back to the White House?"

"of course."

After a while of adapting, George Gently has returned to his usual smart and capable appearance.

He played the second video without any further ado.

This time, a dimly lit alley appeared in the picture.

The alley's usually dirty gray cement floor has now been replaced by another color.

The glaring red color caught the eyes of everyone present.

In addition, there were colorful intestines slowly flowing on the ground and corpses broken into two pieces.

Most people in the conference room frowned uncomfortably at this.

George Gently spoke up at the right moment, explaining, "The murder in the video took place in an alley off 36th Street in Brooklyn."

"Based on the clues we currently have and the testimony of eyewitnesses, we can basically conclude that this is where Luke Duncan committed his first murder."

"It was about one thirty-seven in the morning New York time."

"He had just come out of a nearby fast food restaurant and was heading towards the Brooklyn Bridge in New York when he was dragged into an alley by several black thugs.

Before this, Luke Duncan hadn't shown anything special. He was even stabbed several times by one of the black thugs."

"So, Sheriff George, what's your point?!"

Everyone present is a smart person.

Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.

"After receiving the report and linking the two cases, we immediately cordoned off the scene and conducted a detailed investigation of the traces left in the alley."

"The conclusion we've reached so far is that before entering this alley, Luke Duncan was an ordinary person in every way."

"There's even a high possibility that he would commit suicide because of his relationship, marriage, and financial problems."

"But after being held hostage by gangsters in an alley and severely injured, this ordinary man suddenly underwent some strange changes, or rather, mutations!!!"

In front of all the officers present, George Gently expressed his guess.

What this means is that the inhuman physique and abilities demonstrated by Luke Duncan in the video may be replicable with a certain probability.

And this is exactly the news that all the "big shots" here want to hear most when they gather at NYPD headquarters late at night.

After discussing in low voices with a look of joy on their faces, White House Chief of Staff William Daley decided on the spot to classify the matter concerning Luke Duncan as a top national secret.

Once the secrets are leaked, they will be treated as crimes endangering national security.

At the same time, elite members of the New York Police Department and the FBI were mobilized to form a temporary special investigation team, led by George Gently, to track down Luke Duncan as quickly as possible. As for those killed by Luke Duncan, they were of no importance at all.

No matter whether those dead were gangsters, policemen, or innocent people, they are just a string of statistics.

The most important thing is Luke Duncan, and the extraordinary abilities he has demonstrated!!!
In a presidential suite at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Manhattan, New York.

Lu Bai, who used the innate ability of the lovebirds to easily change his identity and live here, was holding a glass of red wine while admiring the brilliant night view of New York, while checking the growth of the willpower in the Bai Ze monster picture.

If the wish power required to travel through the world of Shan Hai Jing once is set to 1.

His sudden inspiration this time brought him nearly a thousand wish points.

It was almost three times the amount of wish power accumulated in the Bai Ze monster picture that he had seen at the beginning.

This shows that his idea is correct.

If you want to increase the wish value in the Bai Ze monster picture, you need some special tricks.

For example, making trouble, making trouble, and really making trouble.

"But it seems that the growth rate of the wish power in the Bai Ze monster map is slowing down. Is it because the authorities have started to block the news?"

Lu Bai touched his chin and analyzed the reasons for the slowdown in the growth of his willpower. At the same time, he focused some of his attention on the unlucky Luke Duncan.

After endowing Luke Duncan with some of King Kong's innate abilities, Lu Bai discovered that he could observe the existence of the person being endowed with the perspective of a God.

At the same time, granting abilities to others does not affect his own use, and he can also take back the abilities he has granted at any time.

This was a bit like the feeling of the villain Yhwach in the anime "Bleach" that he had watched before.

The only difference is that he does not need the recipient to drink blood wine containing his own blood, he can control it remotely.

"If you think about it this way, then I'm even more perverted than Yhwach."

Gently shaking the goblet in his hand, Lu Bai teased himself and drank the remaining wine in the glass.

The next second, his figure disappeared from the spot and reappeared on the Chongwu Mountain, which towered into the clouds and looked like a fairyland.

It seemed like a long time had passed since he last left here.

As for how long it will be?
When he saw Lu Bai again, Ju's father made some gestures, indicating that the sun had risen and set more than forty times.

"So the time flow rate between the Shanhai World and the real world is about 100:1?"

Considering that he had been in the real world for about ten hours, Lu Bai made a rough calculation and came to a conclusion.

This is good news for him.

After all, if it is really like in myths and legends, that one day in heaven is equal to one year on earth, then after he has stayed in the world of mountains and seas for a few days, the reality will have changed dramatically.

Then the plan he had just conceived would not be able to be carried out at all.

It's just right like it is now.

He can explore and adventure in the world of mountains and seas, imitating the talents and abilities of more exotic beasts to become stronger, while making plans in the real world to harvest more wish points.

Don't delay either.

"Ho ho ho."

Ju Fu, who was standing in front of Lu Bai, didn't know why his little brother suddenly became happy, but today was the day for worshiping the mountain god once every ten years. He patted his shoulder and signaled Lu Bai to jump up quickly.

"Are you saying that other people will come to Chongwu Mountain to worship the mountain god today?"

According to legend, the Bai Ze mythical beast can understand the feelings of all things. Lu Bai, who obtained the Bai Ze monster map, was able to understand Ju Fu's meaning. He bent his legs slightly, jumped onto its shoulders, and followed it down the mountain.

boom!
Boom boom! !
When Ju Fu took a step forward with his giant ape body that was over fifty meters tall, the birds and beasts on the mountain retreated and high clouds of dust were raised from the ground.

A journey that would take an ordinary person several days can be easily compressed into a few minutes by Ju Fu.

Finally, it leaped and brought Lu Bai to the foot of the mountain in front of a group of humans with strange appearances, strange scales growing between their eyebrows, necks and cheeks, and pearls and shells decorating their bodies.

This group of dozens of primitive tribal people are performing a solemn and dignified mountain worship ceremony.

First, a beautiful green jade was buried in the soil, and then each person held a handful of millet, knelt on the ground, and recited the ancient and difficult-to-pronounce sacrificial words.

The general meaning is, great God of Mount Chongwu, we from the Shusha tribe come to worship you as always, hoping that you can bless our tribe with good weather, that everyone in the tribe can have enough to eat, that every child can grow up healthily, and that you can bless us to defeat the evil Xihu tribe. . . .
