Chapter 230: Magic Blood Stone! It Really Exploded!
When the female streamer was stunned, her boss also came out from inside and likewise saw that crew cut strong man being lifted by the neck by that old Daoist priest.
Next, he saw that old Daoist priest casually flick his hand, and the crew cut man was directly thrown into that office, followed by a thud and a wail.
The old Daoist priest also walked into that office, and then wails began to come from inside.
The female streamer and her own boss were so shocked they did not dare go forward, and could only aim the lens at the doorway of the office.
Not just the two of them, the number of people in the live stream room was rapidly increasing, and everyone who saw what had just happened was equally full of shock.
No one had expected that casually swiping into some live stream room, they would end up seeing such a staggering scene.
Huang Tao was exactly like that. When he saw that old Daoist priest of the Chen Clan actually lifting a strong man by the neck, he directly blurted out, “damn.”
His companions beside him looked over in confusion, and when they learned it was that old Daoist priest of the Chen Clan taking action to teach someone a lesson, they all crowded over to watch the stream, or searched it themselves and entered the live room.
What troubled Huang Tao was that now they could only hear the screams from the office and could not see what was happening inside at all; this female streamer was too timid.
“Streamer, I will send you a sports car, go to the door.” Huang Tao directly clicked and sent a sports car.
Only then did he realize that many viewers had the same idea as him and started sending the female streamer gifts, and these gifts seemed to be having an effect.
The female streamer summoned her courage and walked toward the office door, but suddenly, a figure flew out from the office, crashed to the ground, howling and vomiting blood. Startled, she hurriedly retreated again.
She simply did not dare to go forward anymore.
At this moment, Deng Shuang also ran over in a hurry. Seeing the person on the ground vomiting blood and wailing, he quickly headed for that office, and upon entering, he saw a gruesome scene.
On the ground lay people one after another, wailing, all having lost the ability to move. Their eyes, full of fear, were fixed on that standing old Daoist priest.
At this time, Chen Han looked at the rows of mobile phones around him, and the flashing Weixin chat screens, and more or less understood what these people were doing.
These machines, using mass chat to obtain information, should be transmitting it overseas through special instruments and servers, then being used by fraudsters.
This should be their first round of screening for potential targets they could defraud, essentially casting a wide net to haul in the fish that could be caught, then sending them out. Overseas, those people would pick out the foolish ones to slaughter, or the even more foolish ones they could directly trick.
So how could anyone believe some stranger online who adds their Weixin? Believe the concern and sweet talk of a stranger? Believe that someone would treat a stranger unconditionally well?
Think that because someone sounds nicer than their family, they must be better?
There are even men and women who somehow believe that some “rich and pretty woman” or “tall rich handsome guy” really appears online to add their Weixin, and think they just hit the jackpot?
Someone says their family treats them badly, they are very lonely, and they need to pour out their heart to a stranger, and people just believe it?
A stranger online praises you once as handsome or pretty, and you have no self-awareness at all? You automatically fill in the rest with your imagination about “beauty in the eye of the beholder”?
So there are reasons why many people get scammed.
But even so, what these people on the ground did in exploiting human weaknesses could not be forgiven.
As a police officer, Deng Shuang saw the scene before him and naturally understood even better what these people were doing. No wonder the captain had told him to follow; had the captain already guessed?
He immediately walked to the computer connected to those instruments and started operating it.
He knew very well that the most important thing was the content on this computer, which needed to be preserved.
Inside there would be direct evidence to convict these people, and they could also follow the trail to find the others behind them.
Although this might involve an overseas mission that people from their Linhe County could not take part in, reporting it to the city and the province would definitely be a huge merit.
At this time, Chen Han looked in surprise toward where the crew cut man was lying. A ball of white light was actually floating above him; something had dropped.
He casually picked it up, stored it in the game warehouse, and saw the remark information:
【Magic Blood Stone: this is a special healing prop. It is said that when the Wu Tai Sect elder obtained the All-Heavenly Twelve Fiend Gods evil cultivation technique, this was gained from that region. It possesses a special healing effect. After use, consuming the blood patterns on the Magic Blood Stone can achieve rapid recovery from injuries!】
Chen Han had not expected this thing to drop.
It was rather miraculous.
This Shu Shan Swordsman Game, like many games, also had pay-to-win features and a shop that only opened for purchases after recharging.
Although many items in the shop could also be obtained from killing bosses, many people with spare cash still preferred to recharge and directly purchase props for convenience.
This Magic Blood Stone was one such prop.
It was what the game commonly called a health potion. In the game there was an HP value, and as long as the character was not dead and still had 1 HP left, this Magic Blood Stone could rapidly restore it.
Now, here it had become something that, by consuming blood patterns, could achieve rapid healing.
The key point was that the game system had traveled with the game, leaving him in reality with only a few panels and the game warehouse, and the shop had crossed over as well.
Who knew what had happened to the half-crossed-over game system on the other side.
So this sudden drop of a Magic Blood Stone was quite surprising. You had to know that even in the game, this thing had a very low drop rate.
At that moment, an exclamation sounded from outside: “Boss, he is running!”
Deng Shuang remembered that someone else had been beaten out there. After glancing at this old Daoist priest, he hurriedly ran out.
With this old Daoist priest inside, no one here could stir up trouble, but if the one outside ran, it would be troublesome.
Chen Han squatted down in front of one man and took out the Magic Blood Stone.
He wanted to experiment with this thing.
This man was relatively unlucky; Chen Han had broken two of his fingers, the bones shattered and piercing through the skin.
The man looked at him full of fear. As Chen Han squatted down, the man’s body trembled with fright.
Chen Han directly grabbed the man’s broken fingers, placed the Magic Blood Stone on them and activated it. Then he saw the Magic Blood Stone flash with red light, and the man’s broken fingers, with shattered bone piercing the skin, actually began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The man’s eyes widened in shock as he felt the stabbing pain disappear and his fingers recover.
In a moment, those fingers looked as if they had never been injured.
Crack.
“Ah!”
With that snapping sound and a wail, Chen Han broke the man’s fingers again. Healing his fingers had only been for the sake of the experiment, not out of kindness.
The man’s broken fingers were the karma from the fight just now, the consequences he ought to taste.
The sins these people had committed were not light. Setting aside those who were cheated out of money, many had jumped off buildings or into rivers because of it…
And those who had been lured out, how many came to miserable ends?
However, the effect of the Magic Blood Stone was astonishing. After restoring the man’s broken fingers, it had not even consumed a single blood pattern.
The effect of this thing should be the same as in the game: as long as there was still 1 HP, that is, as long as there was still breath, before the blood patterns on it were exhausted, it should be able to swiftly heal injuries.
There was no need to say how incredible that was.
If he could get another treasure for protection, and then add the Sword Control Technique, that feeling…
At this moment, there was a commotion outside and a group of people rushed in.
Leading them was Li Rui, captain of the criminal squad. As soon as he came in and saw the scene inside, he had his men handcuff everyone, then immediately ran to that computer.
Moments later, he finally let out a breath. His subordinate Huang Xin had done a good job; the data and evidence had been preserved well and not destroyed.
He immediately looked at this old Daoist priest of the Chen Clan before him and said with a touch of respect, “thank you, old Daoist priest, for eliminating harm for Linhe County!”
At this moment, that was all he could think to say.
After all, he did not know what else to say. Under normal circumstances, at a time like this, he should be taking a record from this old Daoist priest, asking about the source of the information and so on.
But did he dare? He was not that tactless.
The Chen Clan possessed some mysterious power that could not be documented. Even if the old Daoist priest said he had been dissatisfied with the kidnappers previously targeting people of the Chen Clan, and that he had divined it, come out for demon subjugation, and warned the petty villains.
Would they dare write that in the record?
Such unscientific things would invite criticism if written down.
So even if the man told the truth, he still could not record it.
“Leave these people to your authorities. I am going to the next place!” Chen Han said simply, with a hinting tone, then turned and walked out.
Outside, he happened to see Huang Xin dealing with the female streamer and the people in her live stream room: “everyone, be rational. He is not some old Daoist priest from the Chen Clan. He is someone we arranged in disguise. Everyone must believe in science.”
In the live room, viewers, hearing this, were all spamming
Huang Tao and several companions had clearly watched the stream, and now this police uncle’s explanation was making them out to be fools.
“this uncle obviously wants to cover it up.”
“anyone with eyes can see it.”
“none of us are fools.”
“…”
Chen Han happened to walk past at this time and briefly appeared on camera again. Huang Tao and the others could be sure they saw clearly; could someone really put on makeup to look like that?
Huang Xin also saw this old Daoist priest.
It was his first time seeing him so close, and he truly had an immortal-like demeanor.
As this old Daoist priest entered the elevator, Li Rui reacted and rushed out in a hurry.
After Huang Xin finished dealing with the female streamer and saw him so anxious, he quickly asked, “what is it?”
Li Rui said, “the old Daoist priest said he is going to the next place, there should be more!”
“what?” Huang Xin was shocked and hurried to follow.
He had already learned from Deng Shuang what these people had been doing. This was absolutely a major merit.
A case like this, if no one reported it or they were not accidentally detected, would be hard to uncover when the perpetrators acted cautiously and covertly.
And now this kind of merit was not just a single case?
The two of them stepped into the elevator before it closed, staying with this old Daoist priest, and they did not know what to say.
In the end, they simply kept silent, which instead felt like a basic tacit understanding.
Li Rui had already taken out his mobile phone and started sending messages to arrange things, because who knew how many people might be at the next place.
After leaving the Central Commercial Plaza, the two followed this old Daoist priest onward. However, the old Daoist priest was clearly very eye-catching, so they deliberately left some distance to avoid being noticed by anyone with ill intentions.
Chen Han quickly entered the residential area where another group was located. As soon as he went in, he heard cries:
“oh no, Nini is gone!”
“hurry, call her grandfather.”
“she was just playing on the lawn over there.”
“…”
Chen Han frowned slightly, but completing the task was now the priority. He headed straight toward one of the buildings; that group was on the top floor of this building.
When Huang Xin and Li Rui entered the residential area, they also saw the people anxiously looking for the child. When they saw one of the middle-aged women, their expressions instantly changed.
They had seen her before; she was the wife of one of their leaders.
They hurried forward to ask, “sister-in-law, what happened?”
The middle-aged woman seemed to recognize the two of them and anxiously said, “my granddaughter Nini was just playing on the lawn here, and suddenly she is gone.”
Li Rui’s expression changed. Now that the old Daoist priest had just happened to come to this residential area, he could not help but think more.
In no time, Chen Han entered an elevator in one building and headed straight for the top floor. He was quite puzzled why these outer members of the Wu Tai Sect all liked staying on top floors.
…
In the residential area, a suite on the rooftop was directly connected to the rooftop terrace, clearly one of those top-floor units where the developer gifted part of the rooftop space.
Many people liked buying such apartments because they could get much more usable space.
At this moment, however, a group of strong men were surrounding a drugged little girl, wearing hesitant expressions.
Around them were computers, all on and running programs.
“are we really going to do this? she is just a child.”
“the key is her grandfather’s identity. Now that we have been targeted, we will never get back to the country.”
“if we refuse, the people over there will expose our identity information. We either get locked up, or we can never return.”
“the people over there already sent two weapons over. Just for that, even if we do nothing, it is 3 years!”
These words left everyone around them helpless. They were now trapped, their identity information and evidence already under someone else’s control, and if they did not do what those people ordered, they could be discarded at any moment.
If they followed orders, escaped, and made it over there, they could still survive; and besides, they would not necessarily be discovered, so when the time was right, they could still come back and live freely.
It was only one injection, and it would not take effect immediately. They were confident they could send the little girl back to the residential area, and even her family would not notice anything in the short term.
“hurry and do it, then send the child back to the residential area. Otherwise, any unusual surveillance footage will be discovered quickly,” someone reminded them.
Another man nodded. “yeah, once we are done, we run and lie low for a while. I just saw a live stream from a Linhe County internet celebrity. Some unlucky guys got visited by an old Daoist priest and are under arrest now. That is a perfect cover for us; no one is paying attention.”
“old Daoist priest? this one?” The man watching the surveillance suddenly pointed to one of the feeds on the computer.
The speaker leaned over for a look and saw that in an elevator feed, an old Daoist priest was riding up. Then the elevator doors opened and he walked out.
After that, the old Daoist priest disappeared from the elevator camera and appeared in another surveillance feed, seemingly outside a door.
The man hurriedly asked, “where is that camera?”
The watcher pointed at the door: “right outside?”
For an instant, everyone froze and instinctively looked toward the door. Then, with a bang, the door was smashed open by a massive force and slammed inward.
An old Daoist priest slowly walked in from outside.
The man was stunned and pointed at Chen Han, shouting, “damn, the one I was watching in the stream was him helping the police take down that group.”
His words jolted everyone in the room. Two of them instinctively reached to their waists and pulled out two improvised weapons.
Obviously, these people were even more vicious, but in the next instant, blood sprayed from the wrists of the two, and they screamed as the weapons fell to the ground without any chance to fire.
There were two ferocious bloody holes in their wrists, straight through the bone.
The others panicked and instinctively tried to do something, but in that instant, a flurry of toothpicks turned into afterimages and shot toward them.
In the next moment, wails rang out one after another. These people were clutching their wrists or their ankles and howling, their faces full of fear as they looked at Chen Han.
They had no idea what had happened, nor how they had been injured. They only felt that in an instant their hands and feet had been pierced through, leaving nothing but agony that cut into their nerves.
Chen Han, however, looked in great surprise at the man who had just drawn a weapon. He had dropped something too, a ball of white light floating above him, and within that white light seemed to be a treasure.
Chen Han stepped forward, took the item into the game warehouse, and when he checked the remark information, he could not help but look astonished.
He had just been thinking of it, and the game system had actually dropped it directly.
Since when had the game system become so considerate?
