Deity Investigation Report

Chapter 329 Abnormal Creature - Goddess of Beauty

"Do it!"

A simple ripple of mental energy spread, plunging the three streets centered around the bar into complete silence.

What shattered this deathly silence was an unexpected explosion.

Lu Xiaoba had been keeping an eye on someone, the second name on the list Wei Lan had given him. He had made preparations early on and was following the other person's car. He could have pressed the detonator at any time, but he was troubled by another problem for a long time.

Because there was a driver in the car!

That guy didn't drive himself at all, and Lu Xiaoba didn't want to hurt any innocent people, so he could only follow and observe. He followed him from the South City Manor to the city center, and then to three blocks outside the bar.

They were constantly calculating the timing of the detonation. It wouldn't work if the driver was in the car, and it wouldn't work if there were pedestrians next to the car. The detonation plan they had chosen was still not going to be completed.

Until now!

With everyone's hearts held captive by the old singer, a deathly silence fell over the three blocks. The drivers were all forced out of their cars by the target, leaving only the target in the vehicle, clutching her heart, struggling to open the door, and desperately waiting for a conversation.

If someone else were around, they would definitely know there's a problem and would observe further.

But Lü Xiaoba was only happy for a moment.

After waiting for eight hours, he finally got his chance and jumped up, squeezing the detonator hard.

"Bah!"

The small bomb sent the car flying more than a meter into the air, shattering glass and sending the blast wave traveling more than two meters.

The explosive yield was calculated by him carefully. Of course, it wouldn't have much impact on the surrounding environment or innocent passersby, but it would be more than enough to tear the people in the car to shreds three times.

Lu Xiaoba smiled excitedly as he completed his mission.

However, this sudden explosion also instantly distracted everyone on the street.

Including that old singer who captivated everyone's hearts.

She should have been in control of the situation, but this unexpected event caused a momentary disruption to her control.

Taking advantage of the chaos, King Buddha suddenly let out a low shout and abruptly attacked.

His mental power suddenly descended into reality, his palm wrapped in blood, and he mercilessly grabbed down at the person opposite him.

It seems he had received other orders before arriving at the bar, so he acted without hesitation.

And the same goes for those around him who wear green hats.

Faced with the old singer's kidnapping, Green Hat was powerless to resist. However, taking advantage of the old singer's distraction and Wang Fotuo's attack that disrupted the old singer's mental field, Green Hat chanted the [Sea Beast] sequence incantation in a low voice, and his body quickly became bloated and sticky.

Its chest bulged high, and then it opened its mouth and sprayed out a cloud of emerald green viscous liquid containing a high concentration of neurotoxins.

Whoever it touches will immediately lose the ability to move; even if no one touches it, the toxin will still evaporate and permeate the space.

An independent investigator and a senior investigator seem to be pointing directly at the old singer's weak points.

"Ok?"

At this moment, only Han Su did not make a move.

Although he kept carrying the black briefcase, his mental energy remained pervasive.

However, this old singer called herself "Young Master" and exhibited various strange behaviors, showing no hurry to make a move.

I have many questions in my mind, but it's not time to fight her to the death yet.

More importantly, he had no idea what this woman was really made of, so taking action now might not be effective.

"Ha ha……"

As expected, when faced with the attack from Wang Fotuo and Green Hat, the old singer only gave a slight cold laugh. She paused for half a second, as if she was thinking, but not about how to deal with Wang Fotuo and Green Hat, but about what had just happened.

When Wang Fotuo's hand, writhing with blood vessels, reached in front of her, she suddenly stepped back slightly.

"Hey!"

As she retreated, her body began to split apart.

That languid and aged appearance was left behind, while her body transformed into a younger one.

But this didn't stop there. As she retreated, she moved about a meter away. For every twenty centimeters she retreated, she left a shed skin in the air, making herself look even younger and more eerie.

Its body began to emit a silvery-white luster, and strange tentacles drooped down.

Like a nesting doll, each layer of skin is shed to reveal a more authentic form.

The space she was in already seemed incredibly deep.

Those strips of skin left in the air were torn apart by the Buddha in an instant, but no matter what, they could not touch the real her, like a hand reaching for the moon.

"That is……"

Wang Fotu's eyes became somewhat unfocused, and his voice trembled.

It was the right decision not to make a move!

At this moment, Han Su was also greatly shocked, and his eyes were fixed on her without blinking.

The old singer's appearance had undergone a dramatic change; her clothes had long since been removed, revealing a silvery-white body covered in tentacles.

This body also has a human form, and its hands, arms, torso, and waist all seem to have been precisely grown and sculpted according to the golden ratio.

Tentacles drooped down from her cheeks, some wrapped around her body, others floated around her. They were clearly standing there, yet seemed to be on a different level from everyone else. Wang Fotuo's attack was clearly right in front of her, yet it felt like it was a hundred and eight thousand miles away.

The crimson power was the most rampant and violent, and no one could resist it, but at such a great distance, it could not harm her in the slightest.

As for being cuckolded, it's like a child spitting on you—completely harmless.

However, this level of distance was not the main reason why Han Su felt so deeply shocked. The most important thing was that when he looked at the old singer, for a moment, he suddenly felt a strong and irresistible impulse.

It was a desire that belonged to oneself, the most instinctive desire.

This desire often surged within me, elusive and difficult to eradicate, but at this moment, it became concrete—the very image of the creature before me…

She's not even human!
However, she perfectly met the standards of her own desires.

When the bizarre reaches its extreme, it represents a kind of beauty, and she is a creature that perfectly embodies this beauty.

"Abyssal creature!"

Just as Han Su was feeling a bit parched, Wang Fotuo suddenly exclaimed in his ear: "She has already acquired the complete form of an abyssal creature!"

The sound startled Han Su awake.

He recovered from his obsessive state, and then his own golden cells were activated. With the Emperor's blessing on the golden cells, he began to quickly withdraw his desire for this "perfect creature," and his rationality quickly returned.

My strongest feeling was shock.

From the moment he met this old singer, he had been on high alert, wary of her corruption.

Unexpectedly, she only revealed one form, and he suddenly fell into a fanatical obsession with her.

This fanatical obsession could only be avoided and brought back to reason thanks to the reminders of the Buddha and the blessing of the emperor's words.

This is no longer pollution, but something far more profound.

"Then she..."

Once his reason returned, Han Su immediately stepped forward and suddenly reached out to grab the other person.

But at this moment, he wasn't trying to cooperate with Wang Fotuo to deal with the old singer; rather, he wanted to capture a bit of her power.

This old female singer's level had reached a level I had never imagined before.

She belongs to the level where she has completed the division and transformation of the golden cells and finally possessed the "mystical form". In other words, she has completely completed the second stage of mystical power training and entered the third stage "Abyss".

This existence is different from Rong Qiyue's family totem; she herself is the totem. She is no longer human, but another kind of abnormal being.

The division and growth of gold cells is essentially a form of aberration.

She has completed the mutation!

Faced with such a creature, whose levels differed by countless, Han Su certainly wouldn't dare to expect to defeat her easily. However, if he could seize a portion of her power, he could use the Emperor's Book to analyze her and at least find out what she was.

"Hmm?" Wang Fotuo was unaware of Han Su's intentions. He had finally waited for Han Su to cooperate with him, but suddenly found that Han Su's palm was soft and weak.

He cursed inwardly, "This young lad, even now, still wants to hide his strength in Qinggang?"

"There's no need!"

"Speak according to the stage you're at. You already have the leverage to engage in dialogue with Qinggang, so what are you hiding?"

"..."

In a flash of thought, he saw a cross-shaped copper scar suddenly appear on the back of Han Su's left hand.

At this time, Han Su was still cautious about everything related to the "emperor". In addition, he knew that the old singer's relationship with the emperor was unclear, so he did not recklessly reveal his divine substance related to the emperor in front of her.

Therefore, using the bronze script power that we are most proficient in is the only option.

Having just experienced the Baila Mountain incident, his level of copper script power is now incomparable to what it was before.

A bronze hand, which vaguely possessed the ability to pierce through space, reached directly at the strange creature's leg. It did not seek to harm the enemy; even if it only touched the opponent's power, it could immediately withdraw.

But to his surprise, he actually managed to grab her in front of him. When he tried to pull his hand back, his hand suddenly slipped, and he realized he had only grabbed empty air.

"We can't even grasp her mysterious power?"

Han Su's surprise at this moment was almost a shock to his understanding.

Previously, most of his opponents were in the golden cell division stage, so he could easily catch them all.

Because opponents at this stage have scattered and out-of-control mental energy, making them easy to capture.

Unexpectedly, when it came to the old singer in front of him, every wisp of her spiritual power had completely merged with her, and every single one of them was under her control. It was impossible to take advantage of the situation unless one actually touched her.

"Boom!"

But at that moment, just as Han Su's attack missed and there was no chance of success, the ceiling above his head suddenly cracked.

Amidst the chaotic debris and partitions, a figure wielding a short knife sprang towards the old singer, or rather, the abyssal creature, with lightning speed, aiming straight for the old singer's throat.

It's a pot lid hairstyle.

He remained hidden in the shadows of the bar, waiting for Han Su's signal.

He remained hidden until Han Su made his move, taking it as a signal to unleash his full power.

"Good boy..."

The killing intent was so pure and the speed so fast that even the old singer glanced at him in surprise. If it were any other similar attack, she wouldn't even need to pay attention to it.

Because the two sides are not at the same "depth", the seemingly sure-fire attack is still a long way from her.

But the bowl cut was different; his special condition actually caused him to slash right up to the old singer's throat.

So the old singer could only gently raise her hand, flick her finger, and suddenly send the pot lid flying.

But in the instant she flicked away the pot lid, Han Su seized the opportunity to strike, finally grabbing the strange creature's thigh hard. The touch was smooth, and it was uncertain whether he had actually grabbed anything, before his body was knocked back by an invisible force.

Inside the body, blood and qi surged, and spiritual power swirled wildly like hurricanes.

That brief contact nearly caused Han Su to lose control of his body.

It was as if he had grabbed not an opponent, but a high-voltage power line.

Realizing she had gotten away with this, the old singer glanced down at him, her eyes showing a hint of disdain.
"Where did you learn this bad habit of touching Auntie right away?"

"..."

The next moment, she looked away.

From beginning to end, she didn't take any of the people in the bar seriously, whether it was Wang Fotuo, the green hat guy, or the bowl cut guy plus Han Su.

She simply transformed into her true form, and then with a slight lift of her hands, her figure passed through the walls and the crowd, flying out of the bar as if she had merely escaped a few annoying flies.

As night began to fall, the neon lights of the entire street seemed to materialize, enveloping her in patches.

Her figure soared higher and higher, and with her appearance, countless gazes began to appear, as if they had turned into threads, pulling at their eyes and forcing them to raise their heads and fix their gazes on her.

This eerie, silvery-white creature with wriggling tentacles floated above the city.

Those who weren't looking at her were drawn up to her by some inexplicable force.

Those who looked at her seemed to have their gazes forcibly fixed on her, unable to look away.

They can't even blink.

As she floated higher, a large number of puppets began to appear in the city, their heads raised, unable to blink, staring blankly at her with empty eyes.

The deathly silence was accompanied by a series of car crashes, explosions, panicked screams, and forced moans; the chaos of the city became its embellishment.

The chaos in the city spread rapidly from the three streets to the entire district and even the city as she walked out of the bar.

"so……"

Amidst this chaos, Han Su's emotions were also in turmoil: "What exactly is she?"

Having just made that grab, and having had real contact with him, I finally had the opportunity to let him use the Emperor's Book to get a glimpse of what was going on.

However, he couldn't directly retrieve the Emperor's Book under these circumstances, so he exchanged it with the Emperor's Book using himself as a medium. As the Emperor's characters surged and rippled deep within his pupils, he finally saw lines of information:

[Codename: Goddess!]

[One of the ten catastrophic disasters of the Fallout era, Scroll 01 ranks tenth.]

[Born from twisted desires, these beings are the only special phenomenon among the ten apocalyptic catastrophes to possess human characteristics. They can satisfy the collective, distorted, and bizarre desires of humanity, thus possessing the ability to manipulate the desires of all living beings.]

【…】

"Ten major disasters?"

This result left Han Su stunned.

My understanding of the Ten Great Disasters is still limited to the bizarre level of the Mother Tree.

Now, we are witnessing a disaster that resembles that of the living?
Moreover, the Mother Tree was merely a shadow cast by the Ten Great Calamities near Qinggang; she had truly arrived in Qinggang.

What kind of outrageous joke is this?

More importantly, why would someone like this call himself "Young Master" and act so humbly?

She acted more like a messenger, but who was she representing? And to whom was she delivering the message?
"Ms. Shen, a high-level abyssal creature has appeared in Qinggang..."

As Han Su was thinking about these things, the chain reaction triggered by the old singer's existence in the sky above Qinggang City increased several times over with each additional second.

Such a strong reaction has already quickly caused different changes in various places. There are the two surviving city-slaughtering priests from the Abyss Studio, and Ms. Shen, who was heartbroken and lost after receiving a fake phone call not long ago.

Youcai had just returned to Qinggang after going through countless hardships. Lu Neng, who had not yet entered the city, was also pursued by a lone knight. All forces related to Qinggang, those who were paying attention to Qinggang, and those who were either in the open or in the shadows were involved.

They had been maintaining a good balance, but at this moment, their attention was forcibly dragged out of the water by this creature.

Everything, the complex struggles and calculations, were clearly visible to the old singer. The tentacles on her body slowly writhed, as if they were performing some kind of rapid calculation.

In contrast, there was the fear and panic of all parties caught off guard.

Among them, the most excited was Ms. Shen from Abyss Studio. The moment she saw the creature in the sky above Qinggang, her emotions almost spiraled out of control. She seemed to feel anger, but more than that, she felt relief and astonishment, and even a trembling sense of panic.
"is her?"

"This monster was released and can even walk in reality, so it's not actually dead?"

"..."

She was a smart person, so she immediately realized that the person she was talking to on the phone was a fake.

But she was also a fragile woman, so she only dared to conclude that the person was actually dead.

Otherwise, she couldn't explain to herself why, if he hadn't been imprisoned for the past ten years, he would have remained hidden, never coming to find her or engaging in any conversation with her.

But now that the monster has openly revealed itself, at such a delicate moment, she can no longer deceive herself.

Because this monster was originally his assistant!
