Chapter 391 Scarab
The black cloak is the standard uniform of the Night Watch. Barrow once wondered why the cloak was used as a uniform.
The answer I got from Chris was: Handsome!
He was speechless about this.
“Bang!”
The heavy iron door of the basement was pulled open by Barrow with his monster strength and thrown aside.
Several black cloaks walked into the basement and turned on the lights. What they saw was suffocating.
More than a dozen women who were supposed to be young and beautiful had their bodies stabbed, their eyes were tied up and suspended, their beautiful bodies were covered with hideous gashes, some had scars, and some had scars. Very fresh.
The shelves next to the wall are full of various equipment.
Whip rope, scalpel, steel needle...
The smell of blood is overwhelming.
“Fuck!”
A newcomer was angry and frowned in a low voice:
“Damn beast!”
“Alas!”< br>
Barrow patted the opponent's shoulder:
"Most extraordinary powers have the ability to influence the mind and amplify the dark side of people's hearts."
"You'll get used to this kind of thing if you see it too often. ."
"Get people out. , call colleagues from the mind control department to wake them up, erase the memory of this period, and help them treat their injuries if possible."
At this time, Barrow had already joined the Night Watch organization for two years. He is more than 10 years old and can be regarded as the 'old man' among them.
He even became the captain of an action team.
"Yes."
The newcomer Ying Ye asked casually:
"How will you deal with that lunatic?"
"No need to deal with it." Luo shook his head and said in the surprised eyes of the other party:
"He's dead!"
"He was controlled by someone to find us and surrender. After explaining everything, his head exploded into a pile of paste."
"..." The newcomer frowned:
“He deserves it, but who is controlling him?”
“I don’t know.” Barrow shrugged:
"The captain analyzed that the person's mental control ability is suspected to have reached the third level. If he does evil, it will definitely cause a disaster."
"Fortunately..."
"The other party did not Out of control, and in compliance with the 'social order', there is no need for us to provoke him."
"Level 3!" The newcomer's eyes lit up:
"Can I be recruited into the organization?"
"Few existences with extraordinary power are willing to join us." Barrow touched his chin and said:
"They have power far beyond ordinary people and can enjoy life without restriction. If you choose, you will Join the Night Watch organization?"
"Hehe..." The newcomer scratched his head and laughed.
“Captain!”
While talking, a person from outside came in and handed over the phone:
"The police station is looking for you."
Police station?
Barrow frowned and took the phone.
“Hello!”
“A vicious case?”
"Suspected to have extraordinary power?"
"Okay, I understand, let's get over it." He hung up and nodded, Barrow rubbed his sore eyebrows:
"Leave it to me here. You guys, let me go to the mining area.”

Mining area.
Peel Mining area.
The black van pressed against the gravel and stopped steadily in front of a low gray house. Barrow opened the door and got out.
"Chief Barrow?"
An old white man came up quickly:
"Welcome, welcome."
"Hello."
Barrow nodded:
" Let’s look at the crime scene first.”
"Yes."
The other party looked attentive:
"We didn't know what we encountered when we were mining, which disturbed the lives of underground creatures. During this time, they made us even sleepless. I can’t sleep well, but Chief Barrow, it’s definitely not a homicide!”
“I know.” Barrow’s expression remained unchanged:
“Let’s take a look at the situation first.”
"Yes."
The old man responded repeatedly.
If it is a homicide, the police station will definitely intervene, and we don’t know how much trouble there will be.
Obviously just a few bugs...
Okay!
The bug was too weird, and the wounds on the victims did look suspicious of a murder.
Isolation measures have been implemented at the place where the accident occurred, and a simple plastic tent covered the entrance to the mine.
Going inside is the laboratory used by mining companies to analyze ores.
Several figures are busy among them.
"Professor Karl!" Seeing one of them, Barrow's face was filled with joy:
"Why are you here?"
"Barrow?"
Karl turned around and smiled:
"Why are you here too?"
"Professor, I am now employed as an assisting detective of the police station. Come and take a look at the cases here." Seeing an acquaintance, Barrow was also happy:
"Why are you here?"
< br>"Discovered several interesting creatures." Karl waved to him, pointed to the stone slab in front of him and said:
"Look."
"The legendary scarab."
"Scarab?" Barrow frowned.
Unlike others, he had seen this name several times in the accident records of the Night Watch organization.
I also have a certain understanding of this.
Scarab: A creature cultivated by people with extraordinary power in ancient times. It has teeth that can crush everything and can resist damage from low-level extraordinary powers. The key is that it has a long lifespan and lives in groups.
Even a second-level transcendent will be killed if he is surrounded by scarabs without any means of restraint.
This kind of creature is usually buried with some extraordinary people when they die, to prevent others from harming their bodies.
“Look.”
Karl pointed to the stone slab and said:
“This thing looks like a statue on the stone. Once activated, it will become Living creature. ”
“The material transformation between stone and flesh is miraculous”
Barrow stepped forward.
The stone slab is covered by bulletproof glass, surrounded by a circle of observation instruments, and there are some reliefs on the stone slab.
Among them are three scarabs.
“We have tested the bite force of this bug, which can break even steel.” Blaise was amazed:
“It’s incredible.”
He now understood why people died, and even the mine machinery was damaged.
This is what it is made of!
“The defense is powerful, the attack power is astonishing, and the numbers are terrifying. Even modern armies will not be able to use them when they encounter them. Fortunately, they are afraid of the cold and will enter 'sleep' on their own as long as the temperature drops to a certain level. state." Karl introduced:
"You can freeze them a little and then take them out, but my suggestion is not to touch them."
Barrow nodded in agreement.
"No."
Blaize frowned:
"The place where these creatures gather is the core of the mineral vein. If you don't move them, there will be no way to continue mining."
" This is a business involving hundreds of millions, and even our family can’t make the decision.”
“There’s nothing we can do about it,” Karl shrugged:
"I wish you good luck."
"By the way, can you give me this slate? I haven't done any analysis on this special creature."
"Of course." Bray He looked grateful:
"Thanks to Professor Carl, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to capture this thing. Thank you so much."
It was Professor Carl who told them how to deal with the scarab?
This thing...
In the eyes of the extraordinary people of the Night Watch organization, it is very difficult to deal with. Can an ordinary person solve it easily?
"Professor, Mr. Blaise." Barrow was surprised and said:
"Because it involves a murder case, although it was caused by this creature, further investigation may be needed."
"Mining will have to stop for a few days."
Just in case, the night watchman must go down and take a look first.
Scarabs usually do not exist alone, and the things they are responsible for guarding may also be dangerous.
And...
This kind of danger is beyond the ability of ordinary people to resist.
“How many days?”
Blaise frowned:
"One day's suspension of work in the mining area is a loss of hundreds of thousands, Barrow... Are you sure you need to do this?"
"Sure."
Barrow nodded:
"Mr. Blaize, I hope you can understand."
"Blaize!"
Just when Blaydes looked unhappy and was about to refuse forcefully, a familiar voice sounded:
"Stop for a few days."
“Monica.”
Looking at the visitor, the anger on his face quietly dissipated:
"Listen to me."
Carl looked at the sky outside, and then at the vampire Monica who was only wearing sunglasses, his eyes moved slightly.
It seems that
the vampires here are really not afraid of the sun.
Or...
Monica is a special case!
