Chapter 189 Eternal Star
Luo Jun remembered that his master called him before and told him that the exchange team from the federation would investigate Gong Shiyue's matter again, and Gong Shiyue was arrested in his room. of. So, those two foreigners were probably from the exchange group.
Remember that Gong Shiyue seemed to have stolen the treasure of the Hell Creek family...
These days, Luo Jun also learned some information about the Hell Creek family through the forum.
If there is a cultivator family with the deepest foundation in Cathay, it must be the Ling family. After all, holding one door alone can be said to have the resources of the entire wilderness. The Ling family's heritage is unmatched by all other families combined, and only the official Yuan Xiu Society can surpass them.
But if you look around the world, there is still a family that can be compared with the Ling family.
That is the Hell Creek family of the Federation.
Like the Ling family, the Hell Creek family also controls a door alone. The world behind the door is called [Wasteland].
It is through this door that the Hell Creek family has become the largest family in the entire federation and even the entire Western world.
Moreover, unlike the Ling family, which has various abilities, the Hell Creek family members have a surprisingly high proportion of shapeshifters. Therefore, in the circle, the Hell Creek family is also nicknamed the Monster Family.
To be honest, it is normal for family members with the same bloodline to practice in similar directions. In contrast, the Ling family, which has a variety of abilities, is different. Although this characteristic makes the abilities of the members of the Ling family very diverse and balanced, on the other hand, it is difficult to pass on the experience of the elders to the next generation. The Hell Creek family is different. In terms of research on the abilities of the Transformation Sect, the achievements of this family in the world are inferior.
It seems that those guys have made little progress in their investigation of Gong Shiyue, and they all found this place...
But what are they looking for? What treasure had Gong Shiyue stolen that made them so concerned that they issued a huge reward and even went to China thousands of miles away to track it down...
Luo Jun was a little curious.
Ordering a bowl of noodles at a nearby noodle shop, Luo Jun slurped it while paying attention to the activities in the community. It wasn't until he saw the landlord coming downstairs to leave that he speeded up to finish the meal and pay, heading towards the apartment he had rented for two years. Walk to the building that is over 10 years old.
All the way to the jogging platform on the fourth and a half floor, Luo Jun stood at the window.
In this old community, the windows in the corridors are basically gone and they are hollow. In winter, when the wind blows in, the corridors look like ice cellars.
Putting his head out and looking up diagonally, he saw the window of the previous room.
Luo Jun looked downstairs. Except for a few old men walking and chatting aunts, there was no one in the courtyard. Taking advantage of the gap when no one was paying attention, Luo Jun suddenly climbed out of the jogging platform, jumped up, opened the window on the fifth floor, and got in deftly. The whole process takes less than two seconds and is more flexible than a monkey.
After successfully entering, Luo Jun felt a little distressed when he looked at the room that had been messed up. After all, it was the home he had lived in for several years, and he still had feelings for it.
"These gang of ghosts are really unreasonable. They are backed by such a big family, so what if they bought this shabby house and investigated slowly? They slapped their butts and left like this. The gangster mentality is simply deeply ingrained."
While scolding, Luo Jun took out a small bottle from the treasure box, which contained a small pile of silver powder.
This thing is called the Dust of Reappearance. It is a treasure that Luo Jun bought from the wilderness. It is of rare quality. Its effect is that after it is spilled, it can recreate what happened here. At most, it can be reproduced. Six hours can be described as comprehensive monitoring. Normally, this bottle can be used five times, but when Luo Jun bought it, there was only the last bit left, which was only enough for one more use.
At first, I saw someone selling a rare-quality treasure phantom, and the price was not expensive, so I picked it up by the way. I didn’t expect it to come in handy here.
Open the bottle and sprinkle it outside, and a hazy atmosphere immediately appears in the room.
The bottle in his hand reminded Luo Jun that he could set the range and time.
The range is within this house. The time is the night of the 28th of last month, up to six hours, so from six to twelve o'clock...
After activation, The scene in the room began to change. The dilapidated walls were restored to a smooth appearance, the lifted floors were returned to their positions, and the removed furniture was also returned. Inside the room, there were two people with foreign faces, one male and one male. The woman was searching the room with an unknown instrument, as if she was looking for something.
Is it so realistic?
Luo Jun originally thought that it was just a translucent image similar to a holographic projection, but now it seems that it is almost happening in front of his eyes. He reached out to touch the table by the window and passed through it without any hindrance. It seemed to be just an illusion, but it was realistic enough to be fake.
The two foreigners searched around the room for several times, but seemed to find nothing. Finally, one of them spoke.
“￥%#@*&%￥#…”
Uh…
Luo Jun then remembered that he was not very good at foreign languages, and he was not good at it. I don’t understand...
Luo Jun quickly took out his phone, opened WeChat’s smart translation applet, and turned on smart translation. Soon, an electronic voice that was slower than the foreigner’s speech came through the phone. come out.
Fortunately, artificial intelligence technology is advanced enough now. Although machine translation is not as accurate and natural as human translation, it is fast and you can basically understand what is being said.
"Nothing was found..." The man sighed: "It doesn't seem to be here."
"Is it because the detector is not sensitive enough?" the woman asked.
"Impossible." The man shook his head: "This instrument was specially developed to search for items from other worlds. The rules of different worlds are slightly different, and items from different worlds will also emit different fluctuations. . I have adjusted the detection wave to the frequency of [Wasteland]. As long as the Eternal Star is in this room, it will definitely be discovered."
"Could it be that our direction is wrong? Gong Shiyue is just. Just arrested here without leaving anything here?" The woman frowned.
"No...Chinese officials have confirmed that Gong Shiyue does not have any suspicious items on her person except the treasure box. And the Eternal Star is not a treasure and cannot be stored in the treasure box, so the items should not be on her."
“These people from Cathay are not trustworthy at all!” The woman snorted coldly: “Even our conversation with Gong Shiyue, they have to accompany us and supervise us all the time... If it weren’t for these people from Cathay, I'll just dig into her brain and find out where the things are!" "It's useless to talk about this." The man sighed: "Chendan's official attitude is very tough. We can only look for clues from other angles. The probability that Xing is not with her is very high. Even if there is a glimmer of hope, we can't let it go."
As he said that, the man tightened the instrument in the treasure box and opened the box on the side. A new detector unfolded inside.
"We can only use the stupidest method." The man turned on the instrument. "No matter what method the woman uses to block alien detectors, there must be room to hide things..."
Luo Jun frowned slightly. As the instrument was turned on, he heard a harsh and sharp sound.
Ultrasonic detection?
Ordinary people cannot hear this thing, but Luo Jun, who has over 100 senses, can hear it clearly. Using this thing, are these two foreigners planning to find the wall or the mezzanine in the furniture?
Sure enough, after turning on the instrument, the two began to cause havoc. In this kind of old house, it is normal for the walls to have some uneven places and even small cracks. Once any abnormality is discovered, the two men will be busy smashing the walls and digging the floor.
For the next few hours, the two of them basically messed around in the house. In the end, the two of them dug holes into the house and still found nothing.
"It seems that it is indeed not here..." The man sighed and wiped the dust from his face.
"Then what should we do? We will return to China the day after tomorrow..." The woman frowned and punched the wall: "These people from Cathay are too cunning. They obstructed our investigation at every turn. We went there before In other countries, when we cough, they are scared to death, unlike these Cathayans, they are too arrogant!"
"It's useless to say this..." The man snorted coldly. At this time, his The phone rang. When the man saw the call, he looked happy and answered: "Charles, how's it going over there? Have you found the boy named Luo Jun?"
I heard that it was related to him, Luo Jun He immediately moved forward, put the phone into the man's head, pointed the receiver at the microphone of the man's phone, and tried to receive the sound as much as possible. Soon, the translated electronic voice came out:
"That The kid’s cell phone was turned off and he couldn’t be contacted at all. He didn’t seem to have taken the college entrance examination, and there was no information about his college status... Just in case, I even tried to get the list of Explorer College students, but there was none..."
"Where is the past information?"
"The past is very clean. Both parents are dead. I live on relief funds and my studies are not very good... The latest reliable information is that I went to Donghai City a few months ago, and then disappeared. No news, I guess I went to work and changed my local mobile phone number in another place... Where are you?"
"There is nothing in the room..."
"Then It seems that this direction should be wrong." Charles on the other end of the phone said: "Although Gong Shiyue was arrested at this kid's home, she only stayed for a few minutes at most. She shouldn't have taken something as important as the Eternal Star. Leave it to a stranger you just met..."
"Okay, there are less than two days left, let's find another direction!"
After hanging up the phone, the man and woman reluctantly walked around the room again, finally opened the door and left. After a while, the effect of the reappearance dust ended, and the room returned to normal.
…………
Luo Jun touched his chin. It turns out that he is really a guy from a hell family. When my academic status was deleted, Song Yi said it was because of me. I'm in trouble... It seems to be referring to this matter... If they find out that I have entered the Explorer Academy, the suspicion against me will increase.
After all, before this, my identity, Luo Jun, was only related to the supernatural world during the polluter incident and the Ningdong entrance exam. Regarding the polluter incident, the authorities protected my privacy. The outside world did not know that the person involved in the incident was named Luo Jun.
During the exam, a video of me fighting against an agency puppet was circulated, but it was taken from a long distance, and the resolution was limited so I couldn’t see my appearance... From then on, I basically assumed the identity of Ye Active. Judging from the information, the only person who can still be related to the cultivation world is the student status of Ningdong College.
The dean deleted my student status, which really helped me avoid a lot of trouble.
After silently thanking the dean in his heart, Luo Jun began to sort out the information he had just obtained.
First of all, what the Hell Creek family is looking for is called the Eternal Star, and this thing is not a treasure, but something brought from another world.
But apart from the Noble Phantasm, only living things can pass through the gates to other worlds. Could this eternal star be some kind of creature?
Wait a minute, what if we use a method similar to the Gate of All Realms? Luo Jun has not yet tried whether the door made by the Gate of All Realms is like a normal door and can only pass through living bodies.
Even if it is not possible, it does not rule out that there is a way to allow inanimate objects to pass through the 'door'.
And if it’s not a Noble Phantasm, what else can make a big family like Hell Creek value it so much?
These days, Luo Jun has also learned a lot of knowledge from the forum. The differences between different worlds are not just in culture and customs. There are also differences in some core rules. A weapon that may be extremely powerful in one world will not be the same in one world. Other worlds become dumb. A priceless treasure in one world may be worthless in another world.
What can it be that is not a Noble Phantasm, but an otherworldly item that is also highly valued in the main world?
The information was still too little, and according to the landlord, the two guys left after a day of tossing and could not find any more information.
Just as he was thinking about it, Luo Jun glanced out the window and found that the landlord was rushing towards this direction menacingly.
Why is he back?
Luo Jun suddenly remembered that he had just replayed the process of the foreigner smashing the wall, and the neighbor probably complained again...
Hurry up, before the landlord goes upstairs, Luo Jun opens the door Go out, close the door, and run towards the roof. After the landlord opened the door and entered the house, he ran downstairs at an extremely fast speed, successfully avoiding the other party's sight...
