Black Silk Female Police Detective Exorcist

It turns out that these aliens are actually a group of parasitic life forms. They can obtain flesh-and-blood bodies by fusing with non-living substances such as metal and stone.

The octopus-headed archbishop covered in Spirit Iron did not have Spirit Iron growing from his body. Instead, he absorbed the Spirit Iron collected by the Church of Apocalypse over many years, which gave him a body that was extremely effective against superhumans. However, in the end, all that Spirit Iron benefited Qin Huanyu.

Deep in the universe, more than a trillion light-years from Earth, lies a civilization that, phonetically translated into Sanskrit, would be called the Nord Empire. The Nords' appearance is essentially similar to the octopus-headed bishop who participated in the attack on the palace; following Earthling conventions, they could be named octopus-men.

The Nord Empire is also a technologically advanced civilization, and its technology is very advanced. It has occupied more than 20 star systems in the universe as its territory.

On one occasion, while exploring an unknown star system within their controlled region, the Nords discovered a planet with remnants of civilization and collected samples to take back for research.

This turned out to be a disaster, as the samples of those remaining life forms were the parasitic life forms that established the Apocalyptic Church of the Gospel.

This parasitic life form can do nothing without a flesh-and-blood host, but it's different when it has a host.

The Nords conducting biological research were caught off guard and were ambushed by the parasite. A large number of Nords lost their lives and their bodies were taken over. The planet where the research was being conducted was almost instantly destroyed.

However, as a powerful technologically advanced interstellar civilization, the Nord Empire had long had preventative measures against similar biological disasters. After the incident, they did not hesitate to use a planet-destroying weapon to destroy the planet controlled by the parasite.

The parasite race, which had finally regained its vitality, was once again on the verge of extinction. Only a very small number of parasites that had taken over the bodies of Nords escaped through the teleportation portal before the planet was destroyed.

To prevent the parasite from continuing to wreak havoc on other planets, the Nord Empire locked down its stargate network. The parasite could only choose to be randomly teleported to unknown areas, and that's how it ended up on Earth... That was about 300 years ago.

Having suffered at the hands of the Nord Empire and discovered powerful superhumans hidden within human society, the newly arrived parasite dared not act openly again, fearing a repeat of the same mistake.

After disguising themselves as humans and infiltrating the world, they devised a long-term plan, established the Church of Apocalypse, and sought to gradually control humanity and eventually become the masters of the earth.

Unfortunately, the parasites did not expect that human technology on Earth would develop so rapidly in the last hundred years. Qin Hai's invention of the alien detector made them feel that they had been exposed and that humans would exterminate them like the Nords.

As a result, some aliens who were still in a state of panic had no choice but to hastily start an uprising, which led to the White Eagle Continent Incident.

Many aliens now deeply regret that if they had known humans would still be so fond of infighting, they would have continued to lie in wait and watch the show.

But it's too late for regrets. Now that we know the ultimate goal of these parasitic aliens is to dominate humanity and take over the Earth, humanity must eliminate them completely first.

The Truth Society shares the same idea, because the bizarre is also a form of life on Earth, and the existence of the bizarre is inseparable from humanity.

Another unexpected intelligence finding was that, based on the alien's memories, Qin Huanyu discovered that the Kanglong Mace was very likely from the Nord Empire—the alien spacecraft discovered in the Holy Zhou Kingdom more than a thousand years ago should be a kind of unmanned research vessel of the Nord Empire.

Experts have studied and discussed the potential threat posed by the Nord Empire and unanimously concluded that there is no need to worry too much.

Because the Nord Empire is too far away, apart from random teleportation, given the technological level of the Nord Empire in the parasite's memory, invading Earth would take at least several thousand years by light, which would be a losing proposition.

Moreover, the Nord Empire has no interest in expeditions. For hundreds of thousands of years, they have been steadily developing the nearest star systems and only randomly launching unmanned probes into the depths of the universe. They have never carried out large-scale military operations.

In short, there's no need to worry about a large-scale alien invasion for now. As long as we eliminate these aliens from the Gospel Apocalypse Church, Earth's civilization will enter a period of stable development.

To prevent the aliens from playing any more underhanded tricks, the Holy Zhou Kingdom chose to deploy more troops and open a second front from the east coast.

30 soldiers of the Holy Zhou Kingdom landed on White Eagle Continent from the ruins of the metropolis. Under the cover of the two seven-star space carriers, Tianquan and Tianshu, they began to advance towards the central and southern parts of White Eagle Continent, forming a pincer movement with the allied forces to the west.

The aliens tried various methods to struggle, but none of them could change the overall situation. In the end, they seemed to have given up on themselves, and the archbishop often led the Apocalypse Warriors to launch suicide attacks.

To avoid unnecessary casualties, the coalition forces have been advancing steadily, finding and killing any hidden aliens in each location they reach, and destroying any hidden alien facilities, leaving no one behind.

However, the price of being steady is slowness. Despite having an absolute advantage, it still took the allied forces nearly half a year to advance into the core area of ​​the aliens.

The underground here is full of huge biological factories, and the captured White Eagle people are basically turned into Apocalypse Warriors here.

However, the Apocalypse Warriors Legion has long been unable to capture any new humans, and now all of these underground biological factories have ceased production and been destroyed by the invading Allied forces.

With Qin Hai's alien detector, the aliens' attempts to escape, hide, or infiltrate humanity are futile; they have no choice but to fight a final battle in their last lair.

This battle was of enormous scale, with the human coalition expending hundreds of thousands of artillery shells and missiles, and all the top powerhouses participating.

On the side of the Holy Zhou Kingdom, apart from Yuan Qi and Yi Qiushui who remained in the capital, Wu Xiqun brought almost half of the main force of the Investigation Bureau to personally participate in the battle.

Wu Xiqun had just ascended the throne, and having been an idol for many years during her princess days, her prestige in the Holy Zhou army was not originally high, at least far less than that of the former empress Wu Tianyi, who had participated in the war.

However, things changed after this decisive battle. Even though the allied forces had a large number of experts participating, including the Demoness and the Xuan Turtle, they could not hide Wu Xiqun's dazzling performance.

His proud figure, shrouded in dark golden light, was unstoppable and the most eye-catching presence on the entire battlefield, giving off a feeling reminiscent of the hero from another world who single-handedly swept away the demon king's army with his sword.

For the soldiers, nothing is more reassuring than a monarch whose personal combat power is almost invincible. Many soldiers of the Holy Zhou Kingdom who did not follow celebrities before suddenly became fans of Wu Xiqun. After the war, the prices of all the albums that Wu Xiqun released when she was an idol skyrocketed.

The duel lasted for a full 30 hours. Even though the Gospel Apocalypse Church had a foundation of nearly 200 years of monopolizing religious beliefs in half of the world, it was no match for the allied forces.

The alien pope, whose strength was even greater than Lei Mingming's, was finally killed by Wu Xiqun with the Sword of the Warrior after being besieged by Qin Huanyu, Yaoji, and Xuan Gui for 5 hours.

Before his death, the alien pope, like a classic villain, uttered wild words:

"Hahahaha... Too late! Too late! So what if you kill us all? The Light of Evolution is complete. You will eventually become us. We still win!"

These words still took the Allied forces' high command very seriously. So after killing all the aliens, the Allied forces thoroughly searched the alien core area, confirming that all the alien creations had been destroyed and that no so-called light of evolution had been found.

Only after the alien probes on the orbiting satellite could no longer detect a single red dot did Wu Xiqun, as the supreme commander of the allied forces, officially announce the end of the battle.

After eliminating the aliens, the Holy Zhou Kingdom kept its word and recognized General Ron as the new Grand Commander of the White Eagle Federation. Wu Xiqun even personally attended the White Eagle Federation's restoration ceremony.

General Ron was still hesitant about whether the White Eagle Federation should truly demilitarize. However, after looking up at the five space carriers in the sky and then at Wu Xiqun, who could ignore everything and kill him with a single punch at any moment, he still kept his promise.

The White Eagle Federation's army will be disbanded immediately. Soldiers can choose to go home and engage in production, or they can join the army of the Holy Zhou Kingdom and be stationed in the Western Continent.

The Holy Zhou Kingdom would never do something as foolish as allowing White Eagle soldiers to continue stationing on White Eagle Continent. For at least the next 20 years, the troops stationed on White Eagle Continent will be the true Holy Zhou Kingdom army.

In addition to demilitarization, General Ron had signed many other agreements, involving household registration management, legislative power, law enforcement power, and so on, all of which need to be implemented one by one.

However, that was the job of those civil officials, and had nothing to do with Qin Huanyu; she had another important task.

Because of the sudden trouble caused by the aliens from the Church of Apocalypse, the existence of supernatural power is no longer a secret to White Eagle Continent. However, this secret must be kept within White Eagle Continent. The [Sky Lock Regulations] are still in effect, and the civilian communication network of White Eagle Continent is completely blocked.

The human leadership has reached a consensus on restricting the flow of information about supernatural powers, so White Eagle Continent must never connect to the outside world.

But for the people of White Eagle Island, it is still very painful that they, who have long been accustomed to the convenience of the Internet, can no longer use it.

Therefore, Qin Huanyu's task was to lead experts in network communication to build a new large-scale local area network for Baiyingzhou, so that the people of Baiyingzhou could become netizens again.

Setting up a large local area network is not difficult, and there was no need for Qin Huanyu to be in charge of it personally.

The challenge is to ensure that this large local area network is truly just a local area network... There are simply too many curious hackers out there these days, and conventional network isolation is easily bypassed. Once the civilian network on White Eagle Continent is restored, there's a high probability that information about supernatural powers will still leak out to the outside world.

So the real reason this task requires Qin Huanyu is that Qin Huanyu wants to build another solid wall for this large local area network to prevent those curious hackers from entering and leaving.

In terms of pure computer skills, Qin Huanyu isn't particularly outstanding, at least not as good as those top hackers. Her invincibility in cyber warfare stems not only from her overwhelming computing power but also from her control—she can issue thousands upon thousands of commands simultaneously through her mind, while even the most skilled hackers need to manually input commands one by one.

However, Qin Huanyu herself could not act as a firewall for Baiyingzhou's network, and no matter how powerful a firewall is, there will always be ways to break through it; there is no truly perfect defense in the world.

Qin Huanyu's method was to use her most proficient soul data technology, combined with extraordinary power, to construct this wall.

This wall will be a decompilation program personally designed by Qin Huanyu. Whether it is data entering the wall or data leaving the wall, it will first be converted into soul energy by the decompilation program, and only after it is certified can it be converted into communication data again.

Soul energy without the control of a life consciousness is meaningless to the network, thus fundamentally isolating the White Eagle Continent's network from the outside world.

The only way for hackers to bypass the Great Firewall is to use a human-computer direct connection system to send their consciousness into the network, in which case they may be able to successfully bypass the firewall.

Currently, all human-computer direct connection technology is in Qin Huanyu's hands, and only she and the Witch Transformers can perform lossless human-computer direct connection. As long as she does not disclose the relevant technology, there will be absolutely no human-computer direct connection technology that ordinary people can use for at least the next 30 years.

Even so, it's not foolproof, because superpowers are incredibly diverse. There might be a naturally gifted individual who can use their consciousness to navigate the internet, and they might intentionally or unintentionally leak information from inside the Great Firewall to outside.

So in addition to building this wall, Qin Huanyu also suggested that the witch metamorphosers of the [Witch Team] use human-machine direct connection technology to take turns using their consciousness inside the wall to capture those who want to climb over the wall, lock them in a small dark room and teach them a lesson in the manner of witches.

More than half a year after the White Eagle Federation announced its restoration, Qin Huanyu and her team completed the construction of a large local area network and firewall for White Eagle Continent. The people of White Eagle were overjoyed and wept tears of joy—it had been five years, and they could finally go online again.

The White Eagle people are inherently free-spirited and fond of pranks. After learning about the existence of supernatural powers, they came up with even more outrageous antics, which they broadcast live online.

These kinds of live streams are much more interesting than those live streams outside where female anchors pretend to sell their talents but actually give out perks... Anyway, Qin Huanyu really likes watching them, and often breaks the law at home, taking Yi Youyou and her precious daughter Qianqian to climb over the wall to watch Baiyingzhou's funny live streams.

Chapter 221 Pica

That day, Yi Youyou went to work at the palace as usual, while Qin Huanyu stayed home taking care of the children, holding her daughter on her lap as they watched the live stream from Baiyingzhou together.

If her daughter isn't around, Qin Huanyu might watch some live streams that are only for adults, but if she watches with her daughter, they can only watch some funny and entertaining live streams.

Although Yi Qian is still in kindergarten, she is naturally intelligent, especially in mathematics, where she is already on par with junior high school students and even some high school students. She doesn't watch those children's cartoons about wolves and sheep.

Sitting on her mother's smooth black stockings, Yi Qian held the mouse in her small hand and quickly clicked on the food section of the live streaming website.

"...Uh, Sisi, why do you like watching this?"

Qin Huanyu was speechless.

Qin Huanyu wouldn't mind if it were a regular food-related program, as she herself is quite knowledgeable about food and could even learn a few tricks to improve her family's meals by watching food live streams.

The problem is that, starting not long ago, the food live streams on White Eagle Island started acting strangely.

Normal food live streams no longer attract much viewers, so some people have started eating strange and unusual things and live streaming them in the food section.

There are quite a few people who eat tree bark, soil, stones, and steel bars. Some even gleefully livestream themselves eating excrement, which disgusted Qin Huanyu, who accidentally clicked on the link.

The mukbang streamer that Yi Qian really likes to watch now is a pretty young lady named Bai Ying. Her live stream content involves tasting all kinds of soil.

That Miss White Eagle has excellent speaking skills and a great talent for performing. What are clearly just various kinds of red or yellow soil that are hard to swallow are presented as some kind of exquisite delicacy in her live stream.

This "earth" tastes like chicken breast, that "earth" has the texture of pork floss. That Miss White Eagle always speaks with great emotion during her livestreams, and she even does things like a character from a food anime, causing her clothes to rip off on the spot because the food is so delicious…

Actually, Qin Huanyu initially watched this Miss White Eagle's live stream just to see her clothes explode. However, Yi Qian accidentally saw it and started to like the show... Unlike her mother, the little girl simply thought that Miss White Eagle was a very good actress.

Yi Qian clearly wants to watch that Miss White Eagle's show again, but after flipping through many pages in the food section, she couldn't find her live stream room. It must not have started broadcasting yet.

However, while flipping through the food section, the mother and daughter discovered that there are almost no people doing serious food live streams on the White Eagle Island network now. After opening the food section, almost the entire page is filled with all sorts of White Eagle people eating dirt, iron, and stones.

Even though Yi Qian is much smarter than other children her age, she couldn't help but look blank, with a question mark above her head:

"Mom, why do people in White Eagle Island like to eat these things? They taste so awful... That's why I like watching that girl's live stream. It's so funny how she acts like it tastes really good even though it's so bad."

"Because the weirder the food, the more money they can make... These streamers actually have it pretty tough; they have to really push themselves to the limit for views."

Qin Huanyu earnestly explained to her daughter the hardships ordinary people face in earning money, but she also had some doubts in her heart.

Are all these strange things being eaten in White Eagle Island just a trend among livestreamers chasing views?

Let me give a closer look at that streamer my daughter really likes. The way she looks so dreamy while eating dirt doesn't seem like she's just acting...

Qin Huanyu has always been a woman of action. Now that she had doubts about the unusual phenomena, she decided to investigate. After all, she was now an inspector for the 404 Investigation Bureau, and investigating any anomalies was within her legitimate work scope.

Thinking of this, while continuing to coax her daughter, Qin Huanyu also split off another thread of thought to contact the Demoness through the power of arrogance and ask her about these matters.

According to the earliest agreement reached between the Holy Zhou Kingdom and the Truth Society, the extraordinary realms of White Eagle Continent would henceforth be under the jurisdiction of the Truth Society. Unless a major incident involving numerous human casualties occurs, the Holy Zhou Kingdom will not take the initiative to intervene. Currently, Qin Huanyu is only gathering information through personal connections.

The enchantress didn't care at all. She seemed to enjoy chatting with Qin Huanyu and often said strange things to Qin Huanyu like a resentful woman who had been abandoned by a scumbag.

This time, after saying a few strange things, the Demoness told Qin Huanyu that there had indeed been a lot of people with pica in White Eagle Continent recently. The Truth Society was already investigating, but so far there were no valuable clues and no further harm had occurred.

Qin Huanyu was slightly relieved and showed limited concern for the matter. She chatted casually with Yaoji for a few more minutes before ending the call and continuing to spend time with her daughter.

Unexpectedly, although this pica incident clearly started in White Eagle Continent, the first serious incident of harm occurred in Holy Zhou Kingdom.

That was about a month after Qin Huanyu asked Yao Ji about the relevant events. At that time, she was working at the Witch Tower Research Institute, conducting a new research project.

The assistant assigned to her by the government suddenly knocked on the door and said that Qin Huanyu's cell phone, which she had left on her office desk, had rang; it was her personal number.

Qin Huanyu thought it was just a minor call from her family asking her to come home for dinner, so she asked her female assistant to answer the phone and say that she was busy with research.

The female assistant accepted the order and left, but soon returned, bringing Qin Huanyu's phone with her.

Qin Huanyu took the phone with some surprise and glanced at it, only to find that the caller was Lu Han, her first witch-transformer.

When Qin Huanyu was officially promoted to inspector, Lu Han smoothly took over her position as investigator in Baiguang City... Although Lu Han had only received more than three years of training and her experience and strength were below the average level of investigators, with Bai Ling, Hua and Shang Chenghai guiding her, there was not much of a problem.

As it turns out, Lu Han is indeed very talented. She quickly got the hang of the investigator's job, and after handling several extraordinary cases in the past two years, she has gained experience and strength and has become an excellent investigator.

"Sister Qin, I didn't disturb your research, did I?"

After the call connected, Lu Han asked a somewhat apologetic question on the other end. Only after Qin Huanyu laughed and said it was okay did Lu Han stammer, "..."

"It's like this, Sister Qin, I just finished a case, but I feel like there's something strange about it, and I'd like to ask you for help."

"It's about the case..."

Qin Huanyu decided to rest as well, sitting in a chair with her black-stockinged legs crossed, and opening a can of iced cola.

"Didn't Ling'er and the Flower Monk help you?"

"...Hey, don't even mention it."

Lu Han's voice sounded somewhat dejected:

"Of course I asked Sister Ling'er and Brother Flower Monk first, but they both thought there was nothing unusual about the case. They thought I was being paranoid and overthinking things, and there were also personal factors involved... They said if I really thought there were still doubts, I could write them in the mission report."

"Xiaohan, did you write the report? What did the higher-ups say?"

Qin Huanyu took a sip of her iced cola and asked with some curiosity.

She clearly remembered that when she was an investigator, every report was taken very seriously and the response time was very fast.

But Lu Han clearly didn't receive this treatment, and her voice became even more dejected:

"Of course I wrote it in the report, but this morning I received a reply from above, who also agreed with Sister Ling'er and Brother Flower Monk's judgment. They said I could continue the investigation privately, but it absolutely could not affect the official mission."

"In that case..."
