A few minutes later.
Logan Howlett returned, back in front of Karl and the others.
This time, however, he clearly had a more confident look on his face.
It seemed he had made a new discovery!
“Mr. Mara, I am now almost certain that the murderer who killed those 15 human guards in that secret room was a ‘demigod’ who exuded a strong aura of death…”
“Ah, sorry, but besides the word ‘demigod,’ I really don’t know what else to use to describe that guy!!”
After regaining his Bug-level sense of smell.
Logan Howlett returned to that underground secret room and effortlessly "smelled" the entire course of events.
However.
What confused and even puzzled him was.
In the scent left by the intruder, he not only smelled the “taste” of humans, but also some ancient aura far more powerful than humans.
Logan Howlett was almost certain that it was definitely not a "taste" that humans could possess!
This couldn't help but remind him of the time more than two years ago when he was driving a Didi through [New Mexico] and happened to encounter that big fool... oh no, he heard that the idiot was later called [Thor] by the world?!
However, it didn't really matter whether he met Thor at that time.
The important thing was that he smelled a very similar scent from the intruder as he did from the former.
But obviously, the ancient and powerful aura on Thor was purer!
Moreover, this intruder seemed to be able to use some kind of magic or superpower to summon a group of "monsters" exuding a decaying aura to help her fight.
And these "monsters" neither bleed nor die. Logan Howlett had never encountered similar creatures before, so he couldn't guess what they were for a while?
But one thing was certain, those guards with live ammunition were all torn to pieces by these "monsters".
So, what should a creature that is both like a human and like a "god" be called?
In the end, Logan Howlett could only use "demigod" to refer to the intruder for the time being!
“But what’s even more interesting is that the other surviving human female not only didn’t participate in the battle at all, but was also obviously not coerced in any way… even she and the intruder left here together in the end.”
While speaking, Logan Howlett sniffed lightly in a certain direction, following some scents.
Soon, he successfully filtered out the faint, almost disappearing scent pheromones left by the human female from the complex and chaotic multitude of scents in the air.
Because these special scents secreted from the human body have extremely stable chemical compositions.
So even after leaving the release source of humans, they can still exist independently in the air for a long time.
It’s just that ordinary people’s sense of smell cannot detect the existence of these scents at all.
But for Logan Howlett, who has a Bug-level sense of smell.
Unless he encounters special bad weather during this period, as long as there are even a trace of scent molecules remaining in the air or on objects that the target has come into contact with, he can accurately capture them.
Nice!!!
After listening to Logan Howlett's report, the smile on Karl's face became even stronger.
Next, there is no need to spend time and effort to identify who the survivor is!
The answer is obvious.
A mole appeared among the guards guarding the [Thirty Silver Coins]. This person was the last survivor, and her true identity was… Sister Grady!!
Because, as the person in charge of guarding the "sin silver", she is the only woman in this monastery.
But for Karl, as long as there are still people alive, then this matter will be much easier!
Next, all that is needed is to find Sister Grady, then the whereabouts of the [Thirty Silver Coins] and the intentions of the real culprit behind the scenes will all be revealed.
Especially since this murder case even involves a “demigod”!
Things suddenly seem to have become interesting?
“Mr. Mara…”
Bishop Warren McCoy looked nervous and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Karl waving his hand, and then Karl looked at Logan Howlett and asked:
“Can you find her whereabouts by following the scent?”
Although [Wolverine]'s sense of smell is very awesome, after all, more than a month has passed, so Karl doesn't actually have much hope for this.
Right now, it's just a habitual casual question!
After all… what if it works?
But who would have thought that a hint of eagerness flashed in Logan Howlett's eyes, and he said with a serious expression:
“Mr. Mara, although I don’t have complete certainty, but if possible… I want to try!!”
Karl glanced at the other party in surprise, then nodded happily, “Okay, then the matter of finding Sister Grady will be entirely entrusted to you and Frank.”
…………
……
[Texas].
[Houston].
A dark and unlit street.
Squeak—
A door opened, and an old woman with short silver hair and a black cloak cautiously poked her upper body out of the door, first looking around.
After confirming that the surroundings were safe, she stepped out.
Then she walked straight towards the brightly lit main street in the distance without stopping.
However.
Just as she was passing an intersection, two dazzling bright lights suddenly lit up from the side.
Immediately afterwards, two tall figures wearing police uniforms and badges on their left chests blocked her path.
“Sister Grady, is there anything I can help you with?”
“Get out of the way, you two have the wrong person!”
Sister Grady stopped and looked at the two police officers who suddenly blocked her path with a somewhat uncertain expression.
“Jie Jie Jie, that’s right, the person we are looking for is you.”
One of the police officers said with a wicked smile as he kept approaching, “Mr. Necrodamus would like to invite you, Sister, to reminisce about the old days… how about it, give us some face?”
“So it’s that ungrateful black wizard!!”
A look of resentment flashed in Sister Grady’s eyes, and she said indignantly, “I didn’t expect this bastard to not only use those magical creatures to hunt me down, but now he has even bribed the police officers?”
“I really shouldn’t have believed his sweet words and used those ‘sin silver’ to exchange for… hmm?”
Sister Grady seemed to suddenly notice something, sniffing hard in the air, and then said with a look of disgust:
“Damn it, you are not police officers at all… not even humans!”
“Even if you can perfectly disguise yourselves as humans by devouring them, the suffocating stench of sulfur on your bodies cannot be concealed no matter what!”
“I never expected that Necrodamus, in addition to that obedient jackal ‘demigod,’ would actually collude with dirty demons?”
“Humph, stop talking nonsense!” One of the demons disguised as a police officer took out a pistol from his waist and threatened with a sneer:
“Sister Grady, if you don’t cooperate obediently, don’t blame us for being rude!”
“Rude? How dare you despicable demons threaten me, who is an agent of the angels?”
Compared to the troublesome magical creatures summoned by Necrodamus using [Black Magic], Sister Grady obviously prefers to face demons.
Because the power she possesses can be said to be the nemesis of all demons!
I saw Sister Grady clasping her hands together in front of her, and then a holy power filled her whole body, and a pair of pure white wings of light quickly condensed behind her.
Obviously, this is a blessing of power from heaven!
The demon police officer on the opposite side not only showed no fear when he saw this, but instead showed a wicked smile of success on his face.
“Tsk tsk tsk, look what we found? A pure angel agent… bang!!”
As soon as the voice fell, he had already pulled the trigger, and a specially made silver bullet directly pierced Sister Grady's abdomen, and blood spurted out from the wound.
But what is truly incredible is.
Almost at the moment when Sister Grady was hit by the bullet, the “angel power” that originally filled her whole body was strangely dispelled by some powerful and evil power?!
No matter how much she tried to summon that power and the angel who blessed her with power afterwards, she could not get any response.
It’s as if… she has been completely abandoned by heaven and the angels?
“What’s going on? You… what exactly did you do? Why can’t I feel the power bestowed by the angels at all?”
At this moment, Sister Grady's face was full of horror, and the fear of losing power even forcibly suppressed her pain nerves, causing her to temporarily "forget" the bursts of pain coming from her abdomen.
Sister Grady quickly turned her head to look behind her, but found that the wings of light symbolizing "angel power" had long disappeared, and suddenly a feeling of sadness came from her heart, and she wailed:
“No… Merciful Archangel, please don’t abandon me!!”
The latest and fastest novels are first published on !
“Hey, hey, hey, did you see that?”
The demon police officer who fired the gun turned his head to look at his companion behind him and cheered with joy:
“This kind of bullet can actually expel those winged birdmen and their blessed power!!”
“That’s right, but it doesn’t seem to be just expulsion…”
Another demon police officer nodded repeatedly, also saying with a happy face: “It seems that Necrodamus’s plan really worked. I really want to report this good news to Bu… ahem, that lord.”
“Wait, you mean…”
Sister Grady, who had already collapsed in a pool of blood, suddenly had an extremely terrifying idea flashing in her mind after hearing the words of the two demon police officers, and said in a trembling voice:
“That bastard Necrodamus, wouldn’t he want to use those [Thirty Silver Coins] to make bullets specifically used to deal with angels?”
“Jie Jie Jie…”
The demon police officer who fired the gun before sneered and stepped forward, stepping on the wound on Sister Grady's abdomen with his foot, twisting the sole of his shoe back and forth.
Seeing the extremely painful expression on the other party's face, he slowly leaned down and said:
“Sister, hasn’t anyone told you that sometimes being too smart is not a good thing… it will cost you your life!”
At this time, the urging voice of another demon police officer came from behind, “Kill her quickly and then recover the silver bullet.”
“Now that it has been confirmed that this silver bullet specially used for experiments has worked, then for safety reasons, all those who have seen or come into contact with the silver coins must be silenced.”
“We’re going to be busy next…”
“You’re right.”
The demon police officer with the gun immediately pointed the gun at Sister Grady's head.
But just as he was about to pull the trigger, a short knife burning with red flames cut through the darkness like a shooting star.
The next second, Frank's slightly hoarse voice sounded from behind the demon police officer.
“This woman has been temporarily requisitioned by our [Warp Space Group]. Before I get the answer I want, no one can kill her.”
“???”
The demon police officer with the gun was shocked, but when he turned his head to look behind him, as soon as he made a move, his head had already crashed heavily to the ground.
Then his head and body were swallowed by a rising red flame.
……
[Reputation value +444, +88, +88, +44]
[Detected collectable demon soul fragments, Warp Space soul number +1]
……
“Huh?”
The other demon police officer was stunned for a moment, then reacted and roared hysterically: “Damn human, what the hell have you done… Roscoe’s soul has disappeared?”
Puff puff—
At this time, a figure as agile as a cheetah suddenly jumped out of the darkness, and six sharp [Adamantium Alloy Wolf Claws] directly pierced the demon police officer's heart.
But the next second, the demon police officer's body suddenly swelled and enlarged, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a hideous demon with a height of more than 3 meters and horns on its head.
“WTF?”
Logan Howlett rolled on the spot, dodging the demon's claws that were swinging at his head, and exclaimed in disbelief:
“Demons are actually… real?”
But on second thought, even the legendary [God King] Odin and [Thor] have appeared one after another, so it seems reasonable to say that there are demons in this world!
Bang—
A bullet attached with [Khorne Psychic Power] instantly blew out most of the goat-horned demon's head, and its body was also swallowed by red flames.
……
[Reputation value +444, +88, +44]
[Detected collectable demon soul fragments, Warp Space soul number +1]
……
“Logan, in fact, you don’t need to care about whether these trash are demons or other legendary magical creatures at all.”
Frank re-holstered his Beretta M92F pistol, its barrel still emitting wisps of blue smoke, and chuckled dismissively:
"Because as long as you receive the Boss's blessing of power, you could kill a god if they came down here… I personally slaughtered some trash who liked to call himself a 'Blood God' before!"
"Huh?"
Logan Howlett stared blankly at Frank, then at the two demon corpses that were almost completely incinerated into ashes by the crimson flames, his surging emotions refusing to settle.
Truth be told, even though he was a battle-hardened veteran, and a famous "big-scene guy" among the X-Men, the scene he had just witnessed almost shattered his worldview!
Although he had seen Frank in action in the Greenwich battle video circulating online… it was basically like chopping melons and vegetables, incredibly fierce!
But at least he was fighting aliens then.
But now Frank was killing actual demons, and instantly at that!
Wait, since when could humans easily kill demonic creatures?
Also, what was this "blessing of power" Frank was talking about?
Why could you kill demons and… gods after receiving Mr. Karl's blessing?
For a moment, Logan Howlett was flooded with questions.
But he didn't doubt that Frank was exaggerating.
Because there was no need for any explanation, the scene of him instantly killing two demons was the best proof!!
