Under the night of Backlund, the brightly lit city did not feel peaceful at all. Amidst the hustle and bustle of nightlife, no one noticed that a murder was taking place in a certain villa.
As the gun equipped with a simple silencer fired bullets, the man in expensive clothing fell to the ground. The shooter did not hesitate at all. He took out the card he had prepared from his pocket and threw it on the deceased.
Then he quickly rummaged around the room.
"Damn it, you live in such a nice house and you don't have any money at home?" The murderer worked for a while, put the still valuable watches, rings and other items into his pocket, and quickly left the scene of the crime.
He did not drive, but took off the skull mask on his face, and then walked quickly towards the nearby subway station. Although it was a little late now, after the murderers were caught a few months ago, Backlund
The nightlife has begun to recover, and with the crooked nuts brought by the Olympics, walking on the street at this time will not feel out of place at all.
But just as he was walking through a park, a chilling bell suddenly spread from nowhere.
"[Victoria's expletive], is it wrong to have such a bell in the park?" The frightened murderer let out a curse, and then wanted to leave quickly, but at this moment, out of his peripheral vision, suddenly
I caught a glimpse of a shadow.
That's...
A pale skull mask!
Just like what he wore before!
"biu——"
Without hesitation, the murderer took out his pistol from his bag and pulled the trigger. However, until he emptied the magazine, he was unable to cause any damage to the figure who was no more than five meters away from him.
This has brought a lot of trouble to the work of MI9.
"Just tell Silveras Field about this kind of thing." Mr. R said with some displeasure, and his subordinate immediately added:
"But on this person, we found a Libra card, but it's not the common kind. It has ten covenants written on the back."
(I fell asleep while coding, sorry)
"No problem, give me ten minutes." Before Ms. Q could finish her sentence, she hung up the phone. Ten minutes later, Mr. R's cell phone rang again...
"What I said is not to make you join Libra, but to tell you that when you are regarded as a member of Libra and violate the rules of Libra, it means that you have been put on the execution list."
"Is this another rule for turning ghosts into monsters?" Mr. R frowned. It is not impossible for more rules to appear after the ghosts turn into monsters, but basically they are all traceable...
A cold voice came from under the skull mask, but the murderer could no longer make any sound.
According to their experience, the weirdness of ghosts is shaped according to the legends created by themselves, but this Libra organization is different. The original prototype should be the "demon" ghost that distributes coins everywhere, and it obviously wants to trade demons.
The legend of the novel was born, but the fire of that novel forcibly distorted this ghost, which led to the birth of "Libra".
"First, true Libra members never use firearms."
"I remember that you went to investigate the 'Libra Murder Case'. Could it be that you are not a copycat?"
These words seemed to bring a glimmer of hope to the murderer. Taking advantage of the brief pause of the man in front of him, he immediately said loudly:
"Mr. R, a body was found in a park about 200 meters away from Jowood District Metro Station No. 3. Based on the property and weapons found on the other party, as well as the other party's physical characteristics, it can be basically concluded that this case was involved.
murderer."
"The card of the Ten Covenants...is this the one that was previously judged to be a copycat?" Mr. R has some memory of this card, because unlike other poor imitations, a few cards with very exquisite workmanship and materials have recently been discovered. If
It’s not that the famous quote from Sherlock Holmes is written on the back, they can’t even distinguish the authenticity through technical means.
"Looks like another trip was in vain." The middle-aged man known as Mr. R shook his head and was about to leave when he heard a series of hurried footsteps. The colleague who had just answered the phone was walking quickly.
Come.
Of course, whether you can hide in a safe enough position before it hits the target is beyond the control of this ability.
"Don't get me wrong." The man wearing a skull mask interrupted his words, grabbed his neck with one hand, and picked him up——
The intensity of the ghost stories in this book is directly linked to cognition, so it will increase with the increase in popularity. Theoretically speaking, when the ghost stories become as famous as the flower farmer Sun Monkey, even if there is a Star Destroyer Cannon
Aiming at you, you can sense it before launching and avoid it——
The next day, in the villa where the murder occurred, a group of police officers were cleaning up the scene of the crime, while outside the villa, a group of people in police uniforms were communicating softly——
Throwing the body on the ground casually, the man took out a card from his arms, but unlike the ordinary Libra card, the back of this card did not have the classic motto, but the ten covenants that everyone had already known.
Another sentence was spoken, and the figure that looked like an evil ghost crawling out of hell had already arrived in front of him. The murderer fell to the ground with a plop, but still tried hard to move his body and try to escape from here.
But now it seems that this kind of card may not be as simple as they thought.
But the man was already standing in front of him, lowering his head, and two rays of light seemed to flash in the skull mask——
If the novel contained content related to the Ten Covenant Cards, it would not be regarded as a copycat at all.
"Tell you three good things."
"Are there any relevant records in that book?" Mr. R thought of the novel that could be regarded as the source of the ghost's weirdness, and immediately asked. He did not doubt that there was something wrong with the publishing company.
"It's true that he is a copycat, but he has discovered something else." Although Mr. R was looking at the phone, he still shook his head, and then continued:
"Check about the ten covenant cards... that is, the deceased person related to the very well-made card with the ten covenants on the back, and then check whether there were any other imitation cases nearby before his death."
What disappoints Mr. R is that several subordinates all shook their heads, but this is understandable——
Thinking of this, Mr. R immediately took out his mobile phone. After a while, Ms. Q's voice came from the mobile phone——
…
The figure wearing a skull mask, an expensive dress, and a pair of golden lapel pins on the collar slowly approached, and his hoarse voice was so oppressive that the murderer who had just completed a murder couldn't help but tremble.
After the words fell, the figure took a step closer again. The murderer wanted to retreat, but found that his legs had reached the point where he could not even move a step.
"Second, true Libra members will not take away any property."
This almost completely overturns the original legend of the ghost, so it can only be a coincidence.
"Third, Libra does not reject imitators. As long as you carry out justice in the name of Libra, you can be regarded as a member of Libra."
However, this coincidence is not without its benefits, because unlike the ghosts who actively create legends and become weird, these guys who are accidentally twisted and become weird often have more weaknesses uncontrollably.
ps1: Blame me, [Avoidance and Protection] is an ability derived from Fate. Although it is called "Avoidance", all flying props are classified under "Arrow". In other words, this ability is as bad as a rotten egg.
As far as missiles and naval guns, as long as it is a long-range attack and needs to be aimed, you can sense it before it is activated (including information such as trajectory, impact point, shrapnel sputtering) and dodge it. This does not mean that it can only dodge arrows.
You can't dodge bullets.
Therefore, that novel can even be used as a strategy book to conquer this ghost.
Following his look, the companion who came back immediately said:
"Mr. R, another copycat." The young man said with a frown as he flipped through the file he had just taken from the police. With the attention brought by the Olympics, the Libra organization has become more and more famous, and this has also
This led to the emergence of copycat criminals.
With experience, Mr. R immediately realized that what happened this time might not be a simple imitation.
"That man is a bastard. He is rich and unkind. He likes the female employees of the unofficial company. He also forced two employees to jump off the building. He is not a good person. I am protecting justice..."
But generally speaking, with the physical strength of ordinary people, even a salvo of artillery can be avoided as long as it is not a super-saturation coverage strike with a radius of more than 20 meters.
ps2: As for strength, as I said before, [Setting] determines the upper limit, and [Cognition] determines the lower limit. No matter how strong the setting is, if [Cognition] is not enough, the effect will be degraded. [Setting] does not
Strong, no amount of [cognition] can break through the bottleneck.
Take the [Mind of the Mirror], which distinguishes right from wrong among the Seven Great Protections, as an example. If [Cognition] is too much, [Mind of the Mirror] can even be used as a mind-reader. If there is not enough [Cognition], it can only barely sense whether someone is lying.
[Awareness] here can be roughly equated to [Recognition] and [Famousness].
