American Celestial Master

Chapter 165, Graduation Examination (2)

Generally speaking, employers are always more willing to save money when doing things that can save money.So they followed this principle when they found people to exorcise demons.At first they approached local Protestant pastors.When Protestantism rose, it was already the era when the mysterious power began to fade, so traditionally, most Protestantism did not have the set of exorcism.Individual Protestant denominations are not even willing to acknowledge the existence of the devil.

But where there is a demand, there is a market, and if there is a market, there will naturally be... So now Protestants all over the world basically know how to exorcise demons.Of course, compared with Catholic guys, Protestants lack inheritance in this area, and their technical level is much worse.Of course, Protestants also have an advantage, their asking price is relatively cheap.Now, if you're looking for an exorcist, you're unlikely to find one for less than a Protestant priest, except for those gypsies who live in the slums.

It's not that the bosses of the management don't want to find a gypsy to bring them down, it's just that the trade union disagrees.So they started by going to the local church and finding a Protestant pastor.

As a result, the priest disappeared directly during the exorcism ceremony.Of course, it is more accurate to say that after the exorcism ceremony was completed and the priest announced that the devil had been expelled, the priest who had finished his work suddenly disappeared when he entered the dressing room to change clothes.Because of the need to protect privacy, there is no monitoring equipment in the locker room.So exactly how the pastor disappeared remains a mystery.

After this tragedy, news of an unusual disappearance at the mall could no longer be suppressed.As a result, the revenue of the entire mall began to drop sharply. At this time, the management made two decisions. One was to continue the cost-effective exorcism, and the other was to close the mall if the exorcism failed.

Considering that the original profit of the entire shopping mall is not particularly high, and after such an incident occurs, even if the incident is resolved perfectly, the turnover and profit will probably decline further, so the investment in exorcism must not be too high. If it's too high, it's not even as good as closing the mall directly.

Now that this matter has been made public, the management simply issued a reward on the media.It's just that this abnormal event has already caused the loss of the exorcist, so according to the current rules of this type of event, it can already be regarded as a D-level event, but the management of the shopping mall who proposed a reward is only willing to give it. There are no bounties for Class B incidents that result in casualties.Because it exceeds this number, in the view of the management, it is better to close the mall directly.

Of course, no one is willing to do such a reward amount, so according to the original plan, the next step is to close the mall directly and dismiss all the staff.

But Lin Qiusheng, who was looking for suitable content for the graduation exam for the students, suddenly saw the reward.Lin Qiusheng is now an all-knowing real person, and this place is not far away, and it doesn't take much time to see it in person, plus there is a faster way to move, that is to directly drill into the network cable, incarnate as a network signal, The speed is so fast that it seems to be teleporting.Just saw the reward here, and in the blink of an eye, Lin Qiusheng came to this shopping mall.

After walking around in this shopping mall, Lin Qiusheng already understood what was wrong.

"The difficulty of this matter is very appropriate. Although it is a little difficult for them, it is still enough to jump on tiptoe. As for the danger, if there is no me, it is of course very dangerous. After all, they Today's actual level, especially hard power, is still limited. But with me present, what problems can there be? For that ghost in this mall, I am the scarier ghost."

Lin Qiusheng walked around the shopping mall, learned about the relevant information, and then returned directly to X School.Then I asked someone to contact the owner of a shopping mall and said that School X was willing to help them solve this problem.

School X's willingness to participate in this matter completely exceeded the expectations of the mall owner. School X is the most famous transcendental organization in New York, and even in the United States. Their protective system is sold well all over the United States, and they earn an unknown amount of money.Relying on this money, and some technologies that can improve life expectancy or quality of life, they have a lot of friends in New York and even in the entire United States, whether on the Republican side or the Democratic side.So School X is even one of the best-known transcendent organizations in the United States today.If School X solves this problem, after the problem is solved, the decline in the mall's turnover should be much smaller, and the mall can continue to make money.

But after realizing this, the owner of the mall, Davis, was not overjoyed.Instead, he was nearly awake at night with fear.In the eyes of ordinary people, he is a rich man and a rich man, but he knows that he is nothing compared to those real big capitals. If those big capitals take a fancy to him, then he probably has nothing If you don't, you will suddenly go bankrupt and liquidate.And School X is already a big capital now.

But just like the famous saying in a science fiction novel: "What does it matter to you to destroy you?" Davis knows what the big capital is going to do, and Davis has no choice, so although he is full of fear, he can only agree. And comfort myself, maybe people are really just passing by harmlessly.

The next day, the self-financing students received the graduation examination questions.

"Solve the strange talk about the shopping mall in Albany?" Sean looked at the test questions, then turned to the three students who were taking the test in the same period, "Let's discuss it."

"Just like the "Art of War" said, the first important principle is to know yourself and your enemy. Let me first analyze the situation of the few of us." Kewell said, "The four of us were originally ordinary people, but now rely on After this period of study and study, we have a certain ability to cast spells, but compared with natural superhumans, we are still very weak in general. This is mainly manifested in the following aspects.

First of all, our mana strength is definitely weak among those born extraordinary.However, we also have our advantages, that is, our understanding of the principles and the tempering of our skills. With sufficient preparation, our mana usage efficiency will be higher.

The second point is that physically we are all crispy.At least compared to those born extraordinary, we are all crispy.For now, our bodily functions are basically the same as ordinary humans. For example, if I am walking in a small alley in Queens and suddenly encounter some gangsters with guns asking me for money, I will Certainly, the only way to avoid disaster is to go bankrupt immediately.Whether it is the body resisting bullets or the body avoiding bullets, we can't do it, but many of those born supernatural beings can easily do this.

The effectiveness of our attack depends on correct and accurate judgment and the most appropriate choice, and our defense relies entirely on strategy.So for us, any action must be fully prepared.To be fully prepared, we must be fully informed.So I think the first step to solve this problem must be to collect relevant information extensively.Well, Sean, you have the best connections to do this kind of thing.This mall continued to operate for so long after the disappearance, so a lot of information must have been deliberately covered up.We need you to find out as much relevant information as possible. The more you know about these situations, the better chance we have of winning. "
