Just when Bailang was surprised that his clothes had changed and were not his original ones at all, the park prompts began to flash on the screen in his head:
[This mission is the first round of single-player missions of ‘Contractor No. 1449032’. To facilitate the mission, the character image has been successfully changed, and it is free for the first time. 】
Bai Lang lowered his head. He was currently wearing a retro suit, with a civilized stick in his right hand and a suitcase in his left hand. His hands turned white and he touched his head, wearing a gentleman's hat.
He could picture this coquettish shape in his mind without looking at it. He had transformed into a Westerner's appearance. The surrounding buildings were also very old and dilapidated, as if they were Europe in the Steam Age.
Pulling out a piece of hair, it turned out that it was not golden but black. He was a little confused as to what he had been changed into.
【Temporarily master the universal language of the world, and you will have basic reading and writing skills.】
A large number of familiar language words came to his mind, and he quickly mastered them.
Bai Lang's eyes twitched, and he asked Le Yuan in his heart: How much do you despise my English level? I'm a college student who has passed CET-6 and doesn't want to make up the exam!
[In London in the 1880s, the second industrial revolution has begun, mankind has entered the "Electrical Age", capital is expanding crazily, and science is booming. The darkness of ignorance has not yet dissipated, and the power of evil is hidden in the shadows.
.]
[This is an era when science and mystery collide. As a member of the 'Demon Hunters', you shoulder the important task of saving the world and safeguarding human peace. Half a month ago, you accidentally learned about a serial murder case.
Under the guidance of fate, you pursue all the way to London.】
[Main mission: 1 Origin. Investigate the truth of the murder and catch the murderer. Time limit is 15 days.]
Of course, the park would not pay attention to Bailang's dissatisfaction, and fulfilled its duty of explanation dutifully, and arranged the first part of the main task to guide him to investigate the completely unknown murder case.
…
"Tsk! You have become an exorcist again, and you still have the guidance of fate? You are my fate, right? A routine fate once a month?" Bailang rolled his eyes and started to look at it.
surrounding environment.
After a series of time travels, he finally returned to Earth. Even though it was England in a parallel Earth in the 19th century, he was still a little excited to go home. Then, after smelling the stench in the air, his excitement disappeared...
…
Even though the steam revolution was over in the 1880s, the roadside in Great Britain was still full of gold. At this time, the air quality in London was extremely poor, and many towering black chimneys could be seen in the distance.
The industrial revolution brought a large amount of coal smoke emissions, which mixed with the cold fog of London, giving it an acidic and pungent smell, and the rhythm of PM8.0. Coupled with the naturally fermented gold everywhere, this is what claims to be the greatest civilization on earth.
The current state of race.
Fortunately, thirty years ago, London, which experienced the "Great Stink", had renovated its sewer system and built many public toilets, which greatly improved the environment. Otherwise, Bailang's situation would have been a hundred times worse! (The miasma visible to the naked eye is permeating the air.
The human world)...London dumps 2,000 tons of excrement into the Thames every year, and is breathed in by two million people. It is really fragrant.
…
Walking along the stone pavement and walking along the streets without street lights, I finally found a hotel and walked in.
He pondered the hints given by the park along the way. The world background in the early days of the electrical age and the foggy London had many possibilities. However, the words "Demon Hunter" and "Evil Power" hinted that this was a world with supernatural power.
"What world would it be?"
There happened to be some small money in the pocket of his suit. Bai Lang booked a room with the boss and took two sturdy pieces of bread to the damp and musty room.
Lighting the kerosene lamp, he began to check his suitcase. This thing was prepared for him by the paradise. His personal belongings and equipment were all in the storage space, and there were quite a few of them.
In the suitcase, there are two sets of changes of clothes, a short knife for self-defense, books, documents, notebooks...money, pipes, and several newspapers.
He picked up the document and saw that his official identity was that of a detective? His name was ‘White Outland’, which was the English name he had made up for himself in the previous world.
This made Bai Lang feel even more novel. A "demon hunter" disguised as a "detective" was a perfect match. He couldn't help but start to look forward to this mission. Can he get the title of "Death College Student"?
…
While flipping through the newspaper, his expression quickly solidified. Although there was no paradise prompt, as a time traveler, he seemed to have guessed the main mission this time?
The other contractors are all Somogo aborigines. Their history is stuck in the 16th century, and due to dimensional erosion, it has long been blurred. They have no idea what happened in Britain in the 19th century?
Time, September 1888. The exact date is not yet known.
There were two clipped newspapers in his hand. They were two serial murders. The victims were all "female special professions" at the bottom of London. The crime scene was near Whitechapel in the East End. The method of death was cruel. Needless to say, the murderer wrote to
Relevant units staged provocations and were widely publicized by newspapers.
If it were another contractor, he would have to investigate for clues. But Bailang got the answer in one step:
It is the "Jack the Ripper Incident" that is also very famous on Earth and has been given a mysterious color.
Considering the 'supernatural power' suggested by the paradise, his mind started to work quickly. The collision of science and mystery, supernatural power, the foggy city of the 19th century, Jack the Ripper...
Brother Lang's heart skipped a beat and he caught a vague inspiration!
"Mysterious? Mysterious!..." A petite, short, rather cool figure appeared in his mind, "Is it my little Jack?"
Gandi Bailang recalled the experience of drawing cards. Although he was taught by Teacher Guda to be autistic, on the battlefield of Futa Dog, he left behind the domineering legend of the "krypton-gold non-chief"!
"Could this be the moon world?" Bailang was lying on the bed, thinking wildly. If it was as he thought, and if it was done properly, he might be able to catch a daughter and take it back to raise him? But in such a world, the power level is a bit too high.
?
"Will I be disintegrated? I will definitely be disintegrated!"
There are no other reincarnations, and it is the first game after officially joining the company, so the difficulty should be limited. Moreover, he has already investigated clearly that although the work in 'Paradise' is dangerous, it is by no means an inhumane unit like the 'Lord God Space'.
The park is really cultivating its employees. The high mortality rate is due to the nature of the work, but it will never force people to die! Probably?
In short, his strength improvement this month is no worse than that of low-level senior veterans, and he is full of confidence in this mission.
With his mind full of distracting thoughts, he quickly fell asleep.
…
Early the next morning, Brother Lang packed up his clothes, wore a sultry gentleman's hat, a suit and leather shoes, and came to the police station with a small walking stick. He took out his ID and began to express his intention to the police chief.
'And are interested and willing to bring their own dry food to help.
At this time, the police department was also overwhelmed by this case, and was even promoted as a waste by the "Times". They were eager to restore their lost dignity. In addition, 'Whitey Outland' was also a newcomer and had heard a little about it, so the two parties hit it off.
, arranged for a new person to be his assistant.
In this way, Bai Lang embarked on a journey to pursue the murderer in the late 19th century. Speaking of which, Holmes should be the same generation as him, right?
