"I am an upright demon hunter, how can I stand by and watch this happen? Come quickly, no need to thank me, no need to thank me."
After completing the task of reporting, Wen Wen hung up the phone.
He had just called the Hunter Association of Xiangnan Province. Since the Glory Church was involved, Wen Wen was worried that the municipal Hunter Association might have trouble handling it.
Liu Shang, who was lying on the ground, looked at Wen Wen with disdain. When he was on the phone, he bragged about himself as much as possible. He really didn't know how this guy had cultivated such a thick skin.
After finishing the call, Wen Wen looked at Liu Shang, who was lying on the ground and had lost the will to live. He was going to interrogate him.
Wen Wen still remembered that these two were here for him. He wanted to find out their purpose, and also how these townspeople had become like this.
However, just as he was about to speak, Wen Wen looked at Liu Shang scrutinizingly for a moment, feeling that interrogating someone lying on the ground was a bit awkward.
So he took out a leather belt and hung Liu Shang on the church's cross. Then he brought over a comfortable chair, sat in front of Liu Shang, and prepared to ask questions.
"The demon hunters will be here soon. Before that, I have two questions for you."
"..."
Liu Shang had no intention of replying. It wasn't that he was incredibly tough, he just didn't want to talk to Wen Wen.
Wen Wen had made him this way. Even if he confessed to the Hunter Association, he wouldn't confess to Wen Wen.
Wen Wen scratched his head. If Liu Shang didn't compromise, things would be a bit troublesome. Tao Qingqing's hypnosis ability could at most influence supernaturals in the exploration stage, and it should be of no use to him.
"Confess and be treated leniently; resist and be treated severely. If you don't answer, I don't know what I'll do later," Wen Wen advised kindly.
Liu Shang didn't care. The Hunter Association people would be here soon. Even if they used the death penalty, what could they do to him?
Wen Wen pouted. In Liu Shang's speechless gaze, he opened the black briefcase and took out his torture instruments one by one.
Whip, candles, handcuffs... basically all of Xu Hai's belongings.
Wen Wen looked at these things and felt that they had no deterrent effect. So he slapped his head and took out a pink cat-ear cup and a small bottle filled with blood.
He first swayed the cat-ear cup, then opened it. It contained a red and green liquid, which was a mixture of the spiciest chili peppers and mustard from the market.
Well... this thing was made by Wen Wen himself and had nothing to do with the original owner of the cat-ear cup.
Then, Wen Wen subjected Liu Shang to inhumane torture with this mixed liquid. He was in so much pain that his veins bulged and he was drenched in sweat, but he still didn't say a word.
Wen Wen shook his head. This was rejecting a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit. So he opened the small bottle of blood and carefully poured a few drops into Liu Shang's mouth.
This torture had no unbearable stimulation or pain, but it made Liu Shang's blood run cold.
A part of the supernatural power within his body had disappeared out of nowhere!
This blood was Heng An's!
Because of this blood's characteristic of clearing supernatural powers, Wen Wen dared not store it in the cat-ear cup, fearing he would break it.
Feeling the change in Liu Shang's internal energy, Wen Wen nodded with satisfaction. This blood's effect was quite good.
"What did you just make me drink!"
Liu Shang struggled violently. He wasn't afraid of the chili water, but he was scared now. Supernatural power was almost the most important thing to him. He couldn't imagine what he would be like without supernatural power.
"Some little things that can clear supernatural powers. This small bottle should be enough to turn you into a completely ordinary person."
Wen Wen thought for a moment and continued, "Oh, right. If you don't talk, I won't hand you over to the Hunter Association, but keep you myself. I still have good things I haven't used on you yet."
Wen Wen's words broke Liu Shang's psychological defenses. If it were just temporary torture, he could still endure it.
But if he fell into the hands of this pervert Wen Wen and was continuously tortured, it would be hell!
So he sighed dejectedly and said, "Ask whatever you want, I'll tell you everything."
Wen Wen smiled. Except for the truly noble and the psychopathic, very few people could remain tight-lipped under torture.
And supernatural power was precisely the weakness of most supernaturals.
Wen Wen held up two fingers and asked, "I don't have many questions, only two. The first is, what exactly do you two want to get from me?" Sudán Novel Network
Since his psychological defenses had been breached, Liu Shang no longer concealed anything. "There are two factions in our Glory Church: the Descent Faction, to which I and Pang Peng belong, and the Grace Faction, to which Yan Xiu belongs."
Wen Wen nodded. He had seen these two factions in the internal data of the Hunter Association.
The Descent Faction believes that the world was created by the Creator, so it should be managed by the Creator. Even if the Creator did not want to manage it personally, the world should be dominated by 'light' beings, i.e., angels.
The Grace Faction, on the other hand, advocates that the Creator bestows grace upon all things and created the world for its better development. As the shepherds of the Creator, they should do their best to protect this fragile world and should not allow too many angels to descend, disrupting the world's balance.
It seemed that this attack was an internal factional dispute within the Glory Church.
Liu Shang continued, "The Grace Faction has a secret technique that only a few divine envoys can learn. By killing ghosts in a special way, they can extract a mysterious substance. When the quantity of that substance is large enough, it can be used to repair spatial damage caused by the descent of powerful beings into reality, or it can be used to summon angels!"
Wen Wen's eyes lit up. He remembered that in Furong River City, Yan Xiu had dealt with a large number of ghosts before him. It seemed that Yan Xiu was trying to create this substance.
"So... Yan Xiu knows that secret technique?"
Liu Shang nodded. "The reason we intercepted you is that we suspect Yan Xiu commissioned you to transport that substance. And the bishop doesn't want that substance to fall into the hands of the old dog... no, Father Liu Danfeng, but wants to use it to summon angels."
Wen Wen basically believed Liu Shang's words. As a detective, observing facial expressions and demeanor was a basic skill, so he was convinced that Liu Shang was not lying.
Moreover, Liu Shang had no reason or ability to deceive Wen Wen.
After a slight pause, Wen Wen continued to ask, "Next is the second question, what's going on with the townspeople in this town?"
Liu Shang hesitated for a moment, then finally said honestly, "This is still related to the tenets of our Descent Faction."
"When angels descend, they will kill all impure creatures nearby. Therefore, to allow angels to truly walk in the human world, rather than being trapped in statues, His Eminence the Bishop proposed to transform a place, making all the people and livestock in that place become 'holy' creatures."
"And the place we chose is Spectrum Town!"
