Lord of Enigma

Chapter 22: Perverted Serial Killer

Late at night, on the wooden table that had already become very messy, bright light from a lamp shook slightly.

Tang Qi held tools in both hands and was doing very intricate work at his desk.

Perhaps because of him becoming a supernatural, or because of the [Chaga Fighting Technique], Tang Qi's arm recovered at an amazing speed.

Although it still didn't work as well as the other hand, it could already do some grasping and holding.

At this moment, beside him, there were two books, one was Guide to Repairing Guns and Making Bullets, and the other was Items for Exorcism.

The former was a gift when he bought the toolbox, while the latter was a personal collection of the original owner of the home, a common knowledge book that was very popular a hundred years ago, and now a book of superstitions.

For Tang Qi, both were now useful.

After unsealing the Blood Python No.1, Tang Qi saw two information fragments.

One told Tang Qi about the origin of the Blood Python No.1.

The other told him that this supernatural pistol only had two basic attributes of blowing out and breaking armor right now, but its power could be enhanced through making changes to the supernatural bullets.

Tang Qi busied around for most of the night just doing this.

He bought a lot of strange items for exorcism and then mixed them in various combinations and stuffed them into the yellow bullets.

Though there was no danger, the working procedures were cumbersome, taking a lot of not only physical but mental effort.

For example, at this moment, Tang Qi was experimenting with a combination.

Tang Qi used a pair of tweezers to slowly pick up a red flower seed that was only a little larger than a rice grain, carefully put it in a small bowl on the side, and then rolled it a few times. When the flower seed was fully covered with silver dust, it was taken out with the tweezer and then carefully placed in the bullet shell that was already soaked in holy water.

After that, Tang Qi stuffed the second, third, fourth a total of six flower seeds before he stopped.

Then he reset the bullet casing, and a clicking sound came.

On the table was another completed bullet.

As he looked over, the expectation in Tang Qi's eyes disappeared immediately.

Despite the addition of many things holy water, silver, and that rouge flower seed which was one of the most famous exorcist materials of the ancient Mayan Empire, in addition to being a very widely used spice in the world unfortunately, the combination still ended in failure.

"This is the last combination. It looks like my approach is wrong."

"Do I have to use that thing?"

Tang Qi dropped his tools and looked at the project in front of him which he had spent more than one hour on without gain.

His look eventually dropped on his own wrist.

After only a second of hesitation, Tang Qi got up directly, took a clean knife, found a spot on his wrist, and a red line immediately appeared on his fair skin; fresh, red blood flowed out.

All of it was collected into the small bowl on the table, with not a drop wasted.

Seeing that the blood had almost filled the bowl, Tang Qi immediately stopped his bleeding.

He sloppily bound it up and then picked up the tweezer again. He directly took a clean bullet and without adding any combinations, directly dropped it into the small bowl full of blood.

Perhaps it was his delusion, but in less than a second after the bullet was submerged in blood, a faint golden light flashed.

Tang Qi moved very fast. When a faint shadow flashed by, the bullet had already been taken out.

In the air, the blood on the surface of the bullet should have gathered and dripped down, but under Tang Qi's gaze, the blood seemed to slowly melt into the bullet itself, and not a bit of it fell.

With just one breath, the bullet regained its yellowish color.

However, if you looked closely, you would find that there was a faint, sun-like mark around the head of the bullet.

The special interface finally appeared in Tang Qi's eyes this time.

Wonder: Furnace Bullet.

Attribute: Evil-breaking, combustion.

[Information Fragment: A bullet soaked with supernatural blood. It gained a trace of power from furnace-induced energy. It will transform from a worldly object to a supernatural one. It has the properties of evil-breaking and combustion.]

"Like this, I succeeded?"

Tang Qi looked at the supernatural bullet in front of him, somewhat stunned. After an hour of complicated operations previously, he had gotten nothing.

He cut his wrist once, and he got the extraordinary bullet immediately?

Subconsciously, Tang Qi looked towards the small bowl of blood once again.

As expected, another special interface emerged.

Wonder: Supernatural Blood.

[Information Fragment: This is a bowl of supernatural blood that contains the power of the furnace. It can be used for many purposes.]

"So, the key to transforming bullets was that you had to use supernatural materials to transform ordinary bullets?"

Ring~Ring~

When this thought jumped out, Tang Qi successively threw seven or eight bullets directly into the small bowl and then took them out one by one.

He lined them, a total of nine, up on the table. All became furnace bullets.

Yet, when Tang Qi wanted to throw in the tenth, he suddenly found that the small bowl was empty.

He gave a bowl of blood to obtain nine supernatural bullets.

Tang Qi didn't find this price too high but was just a little speechless.

If no other method could be found, Tang Qi felt that he might be in anemia for a long time in the future.

"But it's a good thing, in a way. At least I've understood one rule only supernatural materials can produce supernatural objects."

"There is no shortcut."

Knock, knock.

Just as Tang Qi was summing up, a sudden, somewhat rapid knock on the door came into his ears.

Eh?

Someone was looking for him at such a late time?

Tang Qi immediately stood up and quickly collected the nine furnace bullets into his pocket; he then pulled a large piece of sackcloth next to him over the table to hide the things there.

Then he came to the door, and through the peephole, he saw a beautiful, somewhat familiar face that he had seen during the day.

"Sergeant Stana. It's late. What's the matter?" Tang Qi opened the door with one hand and rubbed his eyes with the other hand, putting on the expression of being very sleepy but struggling to be awake, as he asked in doubt.

Fortunately, he had been working in pajamas, and his acting was perfect.

But at this moment, Stana had no energy to pay attention to these things. As compared to during the day, Stana right now was completely different.

Her body was covered with blood of unknown origin, as though she had just fought with some terrible opponent and experienced something extraordinary. There was still a look of shock and disbelief on her face, like she was strongly impacted.

If not for the impressionable sharpness that was still in her eyes, Tang Qi was almost going to doubt if the cool and heroic sergeant was stealthily substituted by another.

After she was invited by Tang Qi into the house, Stana didn't sit down, nor did she drink the fragrant coffee handed over by him.

She exhaled deeply and then stared straight at Tang Qi, saying word by word, "Little guy, did you know from early on that it was a monster? I want you to tell me everything."

Hearing the words, Tang Qi froze for a moment.

Before he could ask "what happened", Stana spoke first, in a quick and urgent tone. "Your previous reminder was right. That monster-murderer I don't know what it is In short, we followed the clues you gave and checked the four shells. They indeed all came from the Aegean Sea, but there is no channel to obtain them within Moses City."

"Unless some aristocratic or rich person specially made people ship them from the Aegean Sea. But we also checked, and nobody did it."

"So we quickly found the only possible channel, the student exchange program between the Europa Union and the Federation. Among them, one group of students from the Anglu state happened to be in Moses City. They're staying right at the international student hostel not far from Holy Thorns High School."

"The suspect is also a high school student. After we caught him, he admitted that he was actually a perverted serial killer and loved to peel off the skin of young girls."

"Everything was fine at the start, but when we were going to take him back to the police station, a terrible accident happened."

"That man, he suddenly became a monster. Scales appeared on his body, and his lower half turned into a tail. The head seemed to have been soaked in water for a long time. It was swollen and rotten, and became bloated and ugly. The most unimaginable thing was that it was also covered with four human skins, from the four girls who were killed."

"My men were frightened and shot it. After breaking the first human skin, the monster howled angrily. Several police officers who were too close died. Their heads suddenly exploded. Before we could react, the monster had fled."

"I have to kill that monster. I must kill it.

"Now, tell me about everything you know. All of it!"

When speaking the last sentence, Stana regained her mature and sharp temperament during the day.

Tang Qi felt a bit of a dangerous atmosphere and sensed that if this queenly sergeant didn't get a satisfactory answer, she just might beat him badly the next moment. Otherwise, Tang Qi might have actually stopped to appreciate her for a moment.

"Sergeant Stana, you"

"Danger!"

Tang Qi had just said half of the sentence when an immensely strong sense of foreboding came to him. His bare skin felt like they were poked by needles at this moment.

Once this happened, Tang Qi's facial expression changed drastically. His whole body leaped out at once, directly hugging Sergeant Stana, and rolled right on the ground into the space underneath the wooden table.

And right at the moment his body left its place, a ghostly, tornado-like thing directly smashed through one wall of Tang Qi's room, with a horrifying scream. With a bang, it knocked a big hole out of the place where Tang Qi was originally standing.

If he was only half a breath late, Tang Qi might have been pulped meat right now.
