Godslayer: The different abilities represented by the twelve two-hour periods of the day

Chapter 90 Lin Shi, who didn't act as the riddle solver this time

“Knowing you have necrophilia, this is a gift I prepared especially for you,” Lin Shi replied calmly.

"Lin Shi, isn't it inappropriate for you to say that someone has necrophilia?" Lin Qiye was startled by Lin Shi's shocking words and quickly reminded him.

After cleaning up the bodies of the "Ten Ghost Children," An Qingyu turned to Lin Shi and said sincerely, with a hint of gratitude, "I am very satisfied with this gift. Thank you, Lin Shi."

Lin Shi glanced at Lin Qiye, his tone laced with sarcasm, "See? He doesn't care at all, and he even thanked me!"

Hearing Lin Shi's mocking tone, Lin Qiye unconsciously clenched his fists.

"An Qingyu, don't bother with the gift I gave you yet. Have you found anything about the four corpses you stole?" Lin Shi said to An Qingyu, who had just finished thanking him and was about to dissect the "Ten-Cut Ghost Child".

Lin Qiye also realized that he was originally investigating the person who stole the corpse, and now that the suspect was in front of him, he should ask him if he had any connection with the five cases.

"First of all, let me clarify that I am only borrowing, not stealing. Secondly, if I borrow the corpses to analyze what 'mysterious' things they died from, I will personally kill them and then leave half of the body to the Night's Watch."

Therefore, in my opinion, doing this would allow the Night Watchmen to gain merit and rewards without risking their lives, and would also make Cangnan City safer, at the cost of only leaving behind half a corpse of my own.

This is true mutual benefit and win-win.

An Qingyu saw what Lin Qiye wanted to say and continued, "I have nothing to do with the five recent cases. At most, I just brought their bodies back for autopsies."

At this moment, Lin Shi interjected, "These five cases correspond to a ritual. To complete this ritual, one must sacrifice a person's soul every two days, then kill the person at 3:33 AM, and cut off their ten fingers ten seconds before killing them, and their feet must not touch the ground."

The ritual is now partially completed; he has already killed five people.

With just one more infusion of a large amount of soul, even a very weak ghost can become extremely powerful through the ritual.

As for what level one can break through to, that depends on the strength of one's soul. It is estimated that the soul quality of several hundred ordinary people would be enough to break through to the 'Sea' realm.

If you add a few more Night Watchers with high-quality souls, such as those in the 'River' or 'Sea' realms, then they will definitely break through directly to the 'Boundless' realm.

Upon hearing this, Lin Qiye's expression darkened slightly, and his brows furrowed.

According to Lin Shi, the other party has completed the initial plan for the ritual, and the next step is to sacrifice a large amount of soul power.

Where will they choose to strike? When will they strike? And what methods will they use to kill hundreds of people in one fell swoop?

Thinking about all this, Lin Qiye's brows furrowed even deeper.

At this moment, Lin Shi spoke again, "But don't worry too much, there is a very strict requirement for this ceremony."

"What are the requirements?" Lin Qiye asked hurriedly upon hearing this.

The more restrictions there are in the rituals, the better they can deduce where and when the other party will take action.

Seeing Lin Qiye's anxiety, Lin Shi continued, "The final ritual, which requires sacrificing hundreds of people to obtain a massive amount of soul power for leveling up, must be completed within two days of the fifth ritual."

Another important point is that the location of the final ceremony was strictly regulated; it seemed to be in a high-end residential area in the east of the city.

However, I don't know which upscale residential area it is.

Lin Shi waved his hand at the end, admitting that he genuinely didn't know which residential area it was.

The tavern owner has already been killed by him, so the person who took over the final ritual must be someone from the Church of the Ancient Gods. He vaguely remembered that the insect was eventually taken away by someone from the Church of the Ancient Gods, who planned to use it to lure the Phoenix Squad and wipe them out with targeted forbidden items.

Unfortunately, this attracted the attention of the Fifth Reserve Special Squad [Nightfall]. In the end, the snake woman died, and the insects were also killed by Lin Qiye and sent to a mental hospital.

They also seized several contraband items, and Fatty successfully rescued the damsel in distress, reaping a bountiful harvest. Cangnan City is now on the verge of a major upheaval.

The concern now isn't just about that insect; the Mortal Realm is also about to disappear. Once the Mortal Realm vanishes, the [Shiva's Wrath] within Chen Muye will be unable to be suppressed.

For the past ten years, he has relied on himself and the mortal realm to suppress the aura of [Shiva's Lament]. Not to mention, in the original work, the aura of [Shiva's Lament] was leaked in advance.

However, this time it shouldn't be leaked in advance. There's still about a month of peace before the God Realm of Mortals disappears on its own, and then the God War will begin.

It's just unknown how many of the gods who are spying on this thing have already sent their agents or avatars to Cangnan City.

Anyway, Loki's agents are always around, and he might even have clones running courier services or driving trucks in Cangnan City. After all, these two jobs are highly mobile and make it easier to find things.

However, there is one question: will they send someone to arrest me? After all, a god without factions, the only representative of a god, must be quite valuable.

But catching me won't be that easy.

We need to be wary of Si Xiaonan, since her contract with Loki is a master-servant agreement. She can't openly rebel, so she can only secretly kill Loki.

Another thing is to leave a clone near Lin Qiye's aunt's house, in case there isn't enough time to hit Lin Qiye's aunt with the Seventh Bullet and then put her into the City of Devouring Time for temporary storage.

As for Chen Muye, he can hold out for a while after disappearing from the Mortal God Realm, so there's no need to rush.

Lin Shi, who was deep in thought, was suddenly interrupted by Lin Qiye's question, "Where did you get this information from?" Lin Qiye was very puzzled. They had only been apart for one night, and Lin Shi had done so many things behind his back.

"I learned it from its owner." Lin Shi pointed to the "Ten-Cut Ghost Child" inside the jar.

"Then how did you know the bar owner was problematic just from a few casual remarks Wen Ge made during dinner yesterday?" Lin Qiye wasn't going to let Lin Shi off the hook this time and intended to get to the bottom of things.

Lin Shi spread his hands, "At first I didn't know the tavern owner was a problem, but he's an important figure in the last case, so I decided to go and see for myself."

Then he discovered that there was a living 'mystery' protecting him, the same one that was given to An Qingyu.

Therefore, they concluded that he definitely had a problem, and then the verdict of the first trial was announced.

The logic... is sound, but Lin Qiye still has an inexplicable strangeness about him.

If I had to put it into words, it would be that he understood Lin Shi. He's always been a riddle-maker, so how come his logic is so reasonable this time?

There was definitely something strange about it, but he couldn't refute Lin Shi's claims.
