Chapter 191 Officially Joining The Case

One by one, Dorian checked their markings.

And after several checks, he was now certain of what he was dealing with.

A Yazoju.

One with roughly similar strength to himself.

If it were before, he would be no match for it.

That's why he had taken so long to put it to sleep.

Dorian frowned, feeling half of his strength drained.

Luckily, he had long been improving his strength.

And because they were similar in power, he couldn't be rash. Every wrong move was an advantage to his enemy.

'I'm still too weak!'

Dorian was annoyed.

At the late stage of the 4th Dan, he could defeat underworld creatures younger than 800 years.

Unlike what some fantasy books would have one think, these creatures could live for a billion years.

So even an 800-year-old creature was still considered too weak.

If Lilith, who lived from the beginning of time, came to attack him, just blinking would turn him to dust if she wanted to.

Everyone sat in horror, listening to Dorian.

"Grandmaster... So for now, we can only keep it dormant?"

"Yes... Hostages are involved."

A moment of heavy silence followed.

Donghai's tongue bobbed against his throat.

"Grandmaster... Then what about my team and I... Will we truly be safe from its attacks while we sleep at night?"

Dorian lazily glanced at Donghai. But this move only made Donghai's heart jump, thinking Dorin was annoyed

"Grandmaster! I don't mean to doubt your skills."

,m "Hmm... You'll be fine."

After all, apart from being confident in his skills, he would also be tagging along every now, and then only the case got officially solved.

So with him by their side, they were bound to be protected.

As for sleeping at night, since he said they'd be fine, they'll be fine.

Additionally, he would also give them talismans to keep ward of any other evil beings.

Just being marked meant they carried a certain gloomy and ominous air around them.

.

Throughout his profession, he had never aimed to kill.

As police officers, they were taught to catch the culprits alive. And only if necessary should they take a life.

So he would shoot his enemies on their feet, thighs or anywhere else that wasn't fatal.

Of course, his best place to aim was to his enemy's hands, knocking their guns off.

Only at mass shootouts or in heavily shooting environments would he shoot to kill.

.

In the end, because his motives were noble, the heavens wouldn't hold him accountable for that.

That's why his killing line was silver.

If he turned into a bad cop, actively shooting people maybe to hide his tracks, then that line would change colors.

And usually, most creatures won't even bother with Donghai since it would take too much effort.

But for a Yazoju, all it needed to do was drop Donghai in that mirror world.

There, good was bad and bad was good.

Hehhehehe... Just how long do you think he would survive without going bad?

There, Donghai would most definitely lose mind. And soon, he would actively taint himself.

In the end, the rewards would be so delicious for the creature to miss.

Donghai was a precious food source for many, if not all Yazojus.

~Gulp.

Listening to Dorian, Donghai was very uncomfortable.

Who knew that he was so appetizing to several creatures?

He had no tears but wanted to cry.

.

"Grandmaster, with the creature asleep, this means that its hold in the bodies won't be able to infect others, right?"

What if another pure silver-lined person came in close contact with it?

"Don't worry. Its asleep. Meaning its hold on everything else is halted too. However, don't relax your guards yet. Check if there are any other cases of this nature... Others might still be in the city!"

"Yes!"

They replied.

"Good. Go back and continue your investigations... At 7... I'll be there."

For now, he had to create Academy portals across the city.

And while he worked, others lurking in the dark also worked as well.

Far down below, turmoil was about to erupt.

Boom!

The grounds shook for the umpteenth time.
