The Black Book

pinching his eyebrows in pain, Sherlock Voss tore off the simulation portrait, crumpled it into a ball and threw it away.

If you can find someone with this thing, you will be a ghost!

Then, he stopped paying attention to the agitated natives and turned his attention to the boys and girls in the corner.

Leaving the task of comforting the family members to the indigenous police, Sherlock Voss stepped forward, smiled and nodded.

"Hello."

"Hello."

The leading girl nodded her head in a calm and indifferent mood, as if she didn't want to say more.

Seeing this, Sherlock Voss just opened the hem of his clothes, revealing a purple and gold Three Lions badge with a crown on the lining of his coat.

"Superintendent of Scotland Yard - Sherlock Worth, are you a contestant?"

Seeing the noble and elegant purple-gold luster, the faces of the group of boys and girls became solemn, and their impatient eyes instantly became clear and respectful.

"Yes, my lord."

"What happened?"

"It was [Dragon]'s people who did it!"

"That guy is so rude!"

“We should complain to [Yanhuang Arsenal]!”

Restricted by the Extraordinary Convention, they were unable to disclose any reality-related information to the creatures in the fantasy realm. When they saw their "adults" coming, they all immediately found their backbone and began to complain.

Listening to their descriptions, Sherlock Voss quickly sketched the whole story in his mind.

Then, he couldn't help biting his pipe and frowning.

"Why did [Dragon]'s men attack the British officers' banquet?"

"Is China preparing to interfere in the world on a large scale?"

"It shouldn't be. The Eternal Door has not been built yet, and no country in the world has the energy to develop this fantasy realm..."

Hearing his muttering, Tia hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth and spoke.

"I think this matter has nothing to do with the Chinese upper class. It is a typical lone wolf incident!"

"Um?!"

Sherlock Worth's eyelids twitched, he looked around at the blonde girl, and suddenly raised a friendly smile.

"Are you Elizabeth Tia?"

"Uh...yeah."

"Brother You and I are friends. I didn't expect to meet you on such an occasion."

After exchanging casual pleasantries, Sherlock Voss quickly brought the topic back on track.

"Why do you think this is a lone wolf incident?"

Tia pondered for a moment, organized her words, and spoke in an orderly manner.

"First, there is only one attacker!"

"Secondly, the attacker's mental state was a bit strange, and it didn't look like he was premeditated."

"Third, the attacker personally admitted that he came in on a whim after seeing the sign outside saying [Chinese and dogs are not allowed]..."

Hearing this, Sherlock Voss vaguely grasped the key point and held his forehead with a headache.

This is definitely something that a Chinese martial artist can do!

They could still ignore it if they didn't see the sign, but once they saw it...

If you can't vent your anger, it will be worse than killing them!

If it is serious, it will make them depressed, even damage their [Tao Heart], and produce inner demons!

It's just that this guy is a bit too strong...

Looking back at the main building of the manor, which was almost in ruins, Sherlock Voss narrowed his eyes inconspicuously.

Those indigenous officers are not mortals without the power to resist. They are war machines carefully cultivated by the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets!

Even if you want to deal with them, you have to spend a lot of time...

And according to Tia's description, that guy carried the sealing technique, besieged, and killed a group of officers!

There is no trace of tactical skills, it is completely violent crushing!

More importantly, that guy's real age seems to be one or two years younger than Tia and the others!

Thinking of this, Sherlock Voss' breath froze and his pupils suddenly shrank.

Could it be the legendary [Abyss] at the other end? ! !

Son of China? !

That is an existence on the same level as Lord Gabriel!

Phew~

Taking a deep breath, Sherlock Voss looked at the boy and girl in front of him with complicated and happy eyes.

"Fortunately...he still obeyed the rules and did not kill innocent people indiscriminately..."

Hearing this, a group of boys and girls seemed to be reminded of sad things and couldn't help but complain.

"That guy is very bad. He keeps trying to lure us into action!"

"He wanted to kill us from the beginning to the end!"

"Too insidious!"

"Fortunately, Tia saw through his conspiracy and we were not fooled!"

Listening to the desperate complaints of these young people, Sherlock Voss could only show a polite yet embarrassed smile.

"You should be lucky that [Dragon]'s [Morals] and [Etiquette] still bind him..."

Listening to Sherlock Voss's meaningful whisper, Tia frowned, inexplicably remembering her brother's advice to her.

Why do you adults look down on me, both inside and outside your words? !

Am I weak?

Every time they tell me I look like a Muggle!

I am the pinnacle Master who is only one step away from hegemony! !

However, he didn't notice the girl's inner dissatisfaction at all. Sherlock Voss looked at the ruins faintly, and across a long distance, he saw a corpse deeply embedded in the beams and columns of the reinforced concrete house.

"One brigadier general, a dozen colonels, more than thirty lieutenant colonels and majors..."

"The entire Empire on which the sun never sets will be heartbroken this time."

……………………

At the same time, in a dark underground space dozens of kilometers away from the crime scene, a bloody and cruel sacrifice ceremony was slowly unfolding.

Nearly a hundred sinners screamed and wailed, suspended in the air by invisible forces, twisting and twisting a little bit, squeezing out the last bit of "value".

Brain, blood, bone marrow, source, luck, life, health, beauty, strength...

Tangible, intangible, abstract, concrete...

All "valuable" elements condensed under the authority of [Greed], and the originally illusory concepts collapsed and turned into real and brilliant gold coins.

Then, the remains of corpses that had been drained of "value" fell and piled up, building a corpse pyramid in the center of the seven-pointed star formation, and at the top of the pyramid, a small pile of gorgeous gold coins was suspended in the air, emitting a seven-color divine light that bewitched people's hearts.

[Greed]: LV.5→LV.6 (193/2000)

[Spirit] +6

[Essence] +5

[Qi] +2

Feeling the mysterious energy injected into his body out of thin air, Zhu Haomiao sighed with satisfaction, waved his hand casually, and the [Greed Gold Coins] suspended in the void turned into a stream of light, falling into the hands of every "believer" who participated in the sacrifice.

From three to five coins to one or two coins, everyone got the "reward" they desired, and immediately excitedly bought the "miracle" that mortals could hardly imagine!

Beauty, health, strength, life, wealth...

The "value" squeezed out of the sacrifice was fed back to the "believers", bringing them earth-shaking changes.
