American Celestial Master

Chapter 17, Cooperation

Lin Qiusheng now knows what the so-called "superheroes" are.When the tide came again, supernatural phenomena continued to appear in various ways. According to the records of Taoist classics, not to mention people, animals and even plants also obtained supernatural abilities due to the influence of the tide.There are quite a few records of this kind of thing in Taoist classics.

As for those "superheroes", there is no essential difference from monsters who have acquired spiritual intelligence and unique powers. In the prehistoric era, such people were so-called "witches".

Lin Qiusheng has always looked down on these "superheroes" the most, not only because these guys often compete with him for business, but also because these "superheroes" basically rely on instinct to control their extraordinary power, one by one There is no technical content at all.

Considering that these "superheroes" are similar to monsters in essence, and they are all human beings, in his heart, Lin Qiusheng even gave them another nickname that directly refers to the essence-shemale!
"Do you have knowledge? What kind of knowledge? Can you help me?" asked the leading ladyboy who claimed to be a superhero.

"With the help of knowledge, I can detect abnormalities in the environment, track the actions of things with dark energy, find loopholes in illusions, and help others find the right direction." Lin Qiusheng replied.

"It turned out to be a scout ranger." Grant, who had just put the rear wheel of Lin Qiusheng's pickup truck on the ground, said, "If that's the case, that's not bad, boss, we really lack a scout ranger in our team .”

The boss ignored Grant's words, but looked at Lin Qiusheng with scrutiny.

"May I ask your name?" asked the boss.

"Lin Qiusheng." Lin Qiusheng replied.

"Lin... are you from New York?" the boss asked again.

"Yes." Lin Qiusheng said, "Have you heard of me?"

"I heard Sergeant Sherman from the FBI mention you," said the Chief. "He's been in touch with 'superheroes' everywhere lately, trying to get us into their establishment. You're the one they want One of the reasons why such an institution was established."

"I'm one of the reasons why they want to build a superhero team?" Lin Qiusheng was taken aback.

"Yes, he said that there have been more and more people with special abilities recently. These people can not only become superheroes, but also become threats to society. Then he gave you an example. He said that you are now in the New York area. You are a famous exorcist, but you are suspected of being a spy. So you have always been the object of their attention, but considering your special ability, ordinary police can't keep an eye on you at all." The boss said.

"You agreed to his recruitment?" Lin Qiusheng asked.

"No, first of all we can't trust the police, especially the federal police. Second, they pay too little money and restrict our freedom. I became a superhero not to let others restrict my freedom ’ said the boss.

Lin Qiusheng believed that what he said should be the truth. Generally speaking, after a person suddenly gains extraordinary power, it is always easy to be a little pretentious. It is not so easy to recruit them.And including the boss, these people are either Latino or black. It is very normal for them to have a bad impression of the American police.

"They think I'm a threat? What the hell, we have cooperated before. By the way, how much did they pay you when they recruited you?" Lin Qiusheng estimated that the FBI guys would not be able to pay much, so he Deliberately arch the fire.The U.S. government departments are actually quite rich, but there is no problem with using the money to buy sky-high office supplies and so on, and to pay low-level employees?Do your spring and autumn dream!

"Have you ever cooperated?" The boss was also interested.

"The FBI guys had some shit in New York and bought my services for it. Those guys were annoying, but honestly, they paid for it."

"What problem did you solve for them? How much did they pay you?"

"A small problem is that there is a negative energy field that can cause neurasthenia and nightmares. It only needs to make some adjustments in the layout of the house. I solved the problem in about two hours. After confirming that the problem was solved After that, they paid me three thousand dollars according to the contract."

"Shit, they'll only give me a thousand dollars a week and tell me not to be too greedy. Shit!" the boss yelled.Then he stretched out his hand to Lin Qiusheng and said:

"Mr. Lin, my name is Fidel, Fidel de Cavo. I have darkvision, and my hands are very dexterous and powerful. This is Anna, and her singing can heal the wounded and expel ghosts. This is Victor, he is more dangerous than a crocodile when he is in the water. We have a friend who has disappeared here, Mr. Lim, you are a famous exorcist, now we really need your skills, I hope we can cooperate honestly .”

"Okay, this is my student Zhang Feng. His technical level is not bad. This is Stam, our employer." Lin Qiusheng also introduced the person next to him, expressing his willingness to cooperate.

"You can track dark energy, so you can lead the way," Field said.

So Zhang Feng walked in front, Lin Qiusheng, Stam and the four "superheroes" followed a little behind.A group of people walked on a small road that cars could not enter, walked for about 200 meters, turned north again, and then flashed the flashlight, and saw a motorcycle thrown at the end of the small road.

"This is Elena's motorcycle," Stam shouted.

Several people stepped forward and took a closer look at the motorcycle. The radiator of the motorcycle was cold, and it had obviously been left here for a while.

"Can you sense anything?" Lin Qiusheng asked.

"When I got here, my sense of direction began to weaken." Zhang Feng said.

Lin Qiusheng nodded when he heard this, took out a compass from his pocket, held it in his palm, and opened it.Several people looked over and saw that the pointer on the compass kept turning around.

"Put this thing on the ground, or the shaking of your hand will disturb him." The black man named Grant suggested again enthusiastically.

"Grant, don't talk. His hands are so steady that he can directly hold the camera and take a picture of the star trails. The random movement of the pointer is not the result of his hand shaking." Lin Qiusheng didn't speak yet, but Field Speak first.

"Is that so?" Grant was obviously convinced of Field, so he stopped talking.

Lin Qiusheng put away the compass, turned around and said to everyone: "Everyone, this phenomenon shows that the dark force that caused this situation is in this area, and we have entered his range. Judging from the reaction of the compass, this A wave of energy can bring certain dangers, but it is not irresistible. Especially you are all superheroes. It’s just that everyone, because of the low visibility in the dark night, it leads to mental tension, and the danger of accidental injury may even be higher than that brought by dark forces. The threat is greater. There will be thicker fog rising soon, we try not to disperse, and no one is left alone. Everyone try to stay in everyone's sight."

Almost following Lin Qiusheng's voice, fog began to appear around everyone, and the fog quickly thickened.However, the high-brightness LED flashlights that everyone holds in their hands have become a problem at this time. The snow-white flashlight shines on the fog, reflecting a large area of ​​white light, which makes things a little further away invisible.

Lin Qiusheng stopped, put down the backpack on his shoulders, took out a few plastic sticks from it, twisted it, and these plastic sticks released a dark red light.

"Everyone turn off the flashlights. We can't see anything with the flashlights now. Everyone should take this. The red light with a longer wavelength can penetrate the fog better." Lin Qiusheng handed these light-emitting plastic short sticks to other people , while saying so.

Zhang Feng and Stam took the plastic sticks and immediately turned off the flashlights. Although the others also took the plastic sticks, they all turned to look at Fidel. They then extinguished the flashlights in their hands.

As soon as the flashlights in the hands of several people were turned off, the surroundings suddenly became dark, but as Lin Qiusheng said, after turning off the flashlights, when the eyes got used to the light environment a little bit, and relying on the not bright plastic sticks in their hands, everyone turned to light. I can see my surroundings better.

"Do you feel that there is something wrong?" Zhang Feng said suddenly, "Did you hear anything?"

Everyone pricked up their ears to listen.There was no sound of any kind, not even the sound of the wind blowing through the treetops.

"It's so quiet around here, it's not right," Field said.

"Listen, listen again?" Zhang Feng said.

"Did you hear the voice?" Lin Qiusheng asked, "Like in a nightmare?"

"Yes, Master." Zhang Feng replied, "I heard the sound of horseshoes."

"Or did it come from behind?" Lin Qiusheng asked.

"Yes." Zhang Feng replied.

Lin Qiusheng said: "Let's find a spacious place. Well, there is a small open space over there. Let's go there and I will set up a formation, and then we will wait and see what happens."

Then Lin Qiusheng explained to Field and the others.

"It's a magic circle that can isolate our breath. You know, things like ghosts and ghosts don't rely on eyes or ears to find people, but rely on the breath of living people, or rely on the detection of living people. The perception of vitality. This magic circle can isolate this perception.

Now we are within its sphere of perception, but it is not within our sphere of perception.This is very bad for us.In particular, it can attack the human spirit, which is even more dangerous.We can't always be passive like this, waiting for it to find us, we have to find a way to mobilize it first. "
