Chapter 379
The night was tranquil. In addition to the occasional patrol passing by from the Pingliang Security Bureau, almost no one else was seen on the streets.
The power supply has been increased by the Pingliang Power Supply Bureau so that the electric streetlights were barely usable. However, at a glance, eight out of ten streetlights were still dimming, and the remaining one or two, with their yellowish light flickering, seemed like they could go out at any time.
These kinds of street lamps need to be replaced every two or three days.
Only source power street lights can last.
The full moon hangs high in the sky, gradually fading behind the clouds, the bright moonlight was hidden behind it, and the night was even darker.
……
A few streets away from the orphanage.
Sun Yu, Cai Jiajia, and the team have changed into the props prepared by Nian Chengwei.
Wearing uniform black cloaks to hide their body shape, people couldn’t tell if it’s a man or woman. Their face was covered with a mask. A very distinct mask…
“Why do I have to wear a pig face mask!”
A female apprentice asked with deep melancholy in her voice when she touched the mask. The big pig nose bulged up,
Nian Chengwei touched the monk’s face mask he was wearing and coughed dryly, “I didn’t find the props, I’m also very tired.”
Look at the other apprentices; there are monkey faces, sand monk faces, and horse faces…
This was a set of the Journey to the West mask. In order to make up the five copies, he deliberately adds a horse face. He chose a few comical masks that look hilarious.
However, as a liaison officer and examiner, and head of the Pingliang Intelligence Department, Nian Chengwei can not laugh. He had to maintain a serious look.
“It’s just a prop to hide your identity, no one knows who is really under the mask anyway… Anyway, hurry up and do it!”
The action roadmap has long been developed. From the side of the orphanage in a straight line to break in… infiltrating.
From a high-rise building, Sun Yu’s team floated down. Stepping on the outer edge of the building and speeding forward mid-air. Just like black fish swimming between the buildings.
From a distance, the orphanage on the side of the school building was visible. There was bright light inside and the shadows of the patrolling Security Bureau hunters.
The surrounding area was empty. There was a gap of more than thirty meters distance from the school building to the nearest building.
Sun Yu grabbed the anti-theft net of the window with one hand and hung his body in the air. With the other hand, he took out the hook rope that he had prepared. With a flick of his wrist, the hook flew out steadily with the rope, accompanied by a slight noise. On the roof of the teaching building.
On the other side of the hook rope, Sun Yu quickly threw it to his companion, who quickly tied it to the anti-theft network. At this time, Sun Yu had already stepped on the dangling rope. Like a ghost, he went straight to the roof of the opposite school building.
Nian Chengwei, who was wearing the mask of the monk, nodded imperceptibly.
When formulating the plan, they looked childish. But their action was quick and crisp, as expected from the martial arts school apprentice who focused on training.
………
The roof of the school building, as an important position overlooking the entire playground, was stationed by three Security Bureau hunters.
One of them yawned, “I don’t know how many days I have to guard, obviously I’m not on night duty, staying up late is the natural enemy of men!”
On the side, the hunter with a flashlight gave a ‘heh, amateurs’ look. Suddenly he paused and looked at the other two.
“Did you hear a loud noise?”
“The playground side is still busy, the sound of talking can be heard clearly from here.”
“No, the sound seems to be coming from the other side… never mind, I’ll go check it out, standing for a long time is not good for blood flow. I’ll go walking.”
He took the flashlight and walked slowly to the other side of the rooftop.
Sleepiness made his brain a little sluggish.
The flashlight’s flickering light illuminated the distance, and a dark shadow flashed in his line of sight.
Like a pot of water poured down on his head, the sleepiness instantly dissipated.
Security Bureau hunter’s gaze pierced to the rooftop outside. There was no black shadow… there was only an empty rope, constantly shaking under the flashlight light.
‘Intruder!’
His mouth opened, was about to shout out, but his throat was locked with a heavy blow to the back, and he fainted.
………
Putting down the limp hunter in his hand, Sun Yu looked to the other side of the rooftop, where the other two hunters, with their backs to him, were facing the direction of the playground, talking in low voices.
They did not notice the situation on this side at all.
He shook his head, walked behind the two, grasping his fingers together into a punch.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Ten seconds later…
Three unconscious members of the Pingliang Security Bureau were dragged to the rooftop’s side and leaned on the edge of the wall.
Cai Jiajia’s team also followed the rope to the rooftop. The last one untied the rope buckle tied to the anti-theft net. With the help of his companion on the roof of the teaching building, he flew onto the roof and landed silently.
“The first step is to sneak in.” Sun Yu walked to the edge of the roof and leaned down. “Fighting mostly occurs in the playground, which is also the key area of ??our investigation… There are currently six people on the playground, but it is not the key. The playground is open and there’s no cover. It will be easily noticed by the hunters on the school building-“
“So knock them all out.”
Cai Jiajia waved her pink fist, seeing that Sun Yu had already knocked out three people, she was a bit impatient.
This kind of infiltration already made her excited.
The assassin who can’t knock people down is not a pro one!
………………
There were two school buildings, both with six floors. Not every floor had hunters stationed on it. But there were quite a few of them, a total of twenty to thirty people.
If so many people gather together or are relatively close to each other, it would be almost impossible for Sun Yu and Cai Jiajia to solve it silently. The hunters of the Pingliang Security Bureau were not weak.
But now, these twenty or thirty people were divided into several teams into small teams of two or three people, four or five people, scattered in all directions on each floor. Not to mention that they have five… four people. Even if there was only one person, they could solve it easily.
Dive in without any pressure.
A minute later, they solved all the hunters stationed in the school building and a few people on the playground with their sneak attacks… Under the violent infiltration, they were knocked out without any resistance. Even they couldn’t see the masks.
Sun Yu and the team were relieved.
Looking around again, some of the bodies were collected, but the traces were not cleaned up. There was some cracked ground in the playground, and the blood would stain the weeds with red once it dried.
One could vaguely identify what happened the night of the cult attack.
“It seems… to be a one-sided battle.” Cai Jiajia said.
Nian Chengwei nodded. “Precisely. Because the Cult had overwhelming power, they only left a little trace during the night. The investigation couldn’t find anything useful because modern technology couldn’t trace it.”
“What about people with abilities? Among ten thousand hunters in the shelter, there must be some people that had the ability in tracking or investigating, right?”
“It’s true. Piangling had found someone with the ability to retrace the scene and recreate it.”
Nian Chengwei stared at the dark red blood on the ground, sweeping from one end of the playground to the other. After a while, he shook his head. “The scene, and the analysis of the judgment would be the same. A group of cultists wearing black robes took less than a minute to solve the orphanage guards and instructors, and did not make a big noise, until afterwards, the surrounding patrols of the Security Bureau members found they had already gone far away.”
“Backing away consumes a lot of time and with the cultist’s power, it’s difficult to find out where they would go. Three days had passed, I’m afraid the cultists had returned to their lair.”
Nian Chengwei shook his head and looked at the apprentices, “So, do you have any insights?”
The team shook their heads neatly.
After a while, Cai Jiajia walked to the playground near the location of the school building towards a corpse that had not been collected.
The area around the corpse was drawn with a line. Cai Jiajia didn’t blindly approach. She only stood nearby to observe.
The corpse was full of holes as if he was pierced by dense needles. His face was unrecognizable; his corpse was horrible. Perhaps that’s why the corpse was preserved – the Security Bureau wanted to determine the identity of the murderer through the victims. If the cultists were hiding in the shelter, there was a clear identity. The senior hunter and the special ability user would easily locate them.
However, three days had passed.
And there was no information. Either the Pingliang Security Bureau hid the information too well, or the attacker was hidden well in the shadows, not known to the experts.
“Can you be a psychic?” Sun Yu asked as he walked over.
Cai Jiajia shook her head. “He’s dead for too long. If it’s just a few hours, the spirit hasn’t completely dissipated and I still can communicate to come up with some information. But now…”
She turned around the entire playground, next to all the corpses that had not been collected. She lingered for a moment.
“Three days have passed and all the corpses have no more spirits… but that’s just as I expected.”
Cai Jiajia wasn’t frustrated. Her ability was psychic. It’s very special and extremely rare. It allows her to communicate with “spirits”, get information, and even use the “spirits” for her own use.
People have spirits.
Grass and trees have spirits.
All things have spirits.
However, in such a post-doomsday era, the spirit will dissipate in a few minutes after the death of a person, and the spirit of grass, trees, mountains, and rivers was so weak that it was not visible.
With the growth of the concentration of source power in earth and the air after the change of the sky some time ago, Cai Jiajia was surprised to find that the spirit of all things enhanced a lot.
Her ability to communicate with the spirit could also finally be useful.
Cai Jiajia looked around, and finally, her eyes landed on a huge banyan tree near the flag-raising platform.
The trunk of the banyan tree was thick. It would require two or three people holding hands to hug it. The height of the banyan tree was almost the same as the height of the school building. Its dense branches and leaves also covered half of the playground.
There’s no doubt after the doomsday, the banyan tree got so much nutrition and was able to grow luxuriously.
Cai Jiajia walked in and stretched out her hand to touch the trunk of the tree. She closed her eyes tightly, her eyelashes fluttering gently.
Several minutes passed, and as the others began to get anxious. Cai Jiajia opened her eyes, bright enough to illuminate the surroundings.
“The direction the cult left is this way.”
The channeling was complete.
On the other side, Nian Chengwei took out quite a few detection crystals, retention crystals and recorded the scene.
Seeing they can’t find any clues, the team leaves after Cai Jiajia finishes communicating with the banyan tree spirit.
Only one place was left, the members of the security bureau lying horizontally and vertically. Some of them wrapped their arms around each other and hugged each other.
A few minutes later, another team of Security Bureau members who came to change shifts walked into the orphanage gate and saw the hugging scene…
They were shocked.
………
“The world is going down.”
“The hearts of the people are not ancient.”
“Flowers and plants are not repaired by anyone.”
Along the way, Cai Jiajia relied on physics and looked for trees, grasses, flowers, historic buildings, and stones. Point by point to determine the direction where the cultists were leaving.
In front of a thick tree that was roughly cut, Cai Jiajia frowned, “The cultists split up here and left in three directions, the spirit’s expression was not very clear, but there were orphans taken away in several directions that left.”
“Then what should we do?”
“We can only find them slowly along the three directions.”
This was a big project. Fortunately, the team had prevention. Well precisely, Cai Jiajia is able to do something and is continuously psychic.
The source power consumption of psychic power was not much, just time-consuming.

Several of them dodged the night patrol while looking for the psychic object.
Cai Jiajia communicated with the “spirit”.
Sun Yu and the others looked out.
Nian Chengwei was bored, thinking about the purpose of the Cult and pondering Pingliang’s response.
Pingliang has a hunter with backtracking ability. They certainly had tried intercepting fragments of the search method.
But the Cult’s anti-ability tracking was very advanced. More than a dozen people split up, increasing the difficulty of retracing.
Unlike ‘psychic’, ‘backtracking’ consumes a lot of source power, and it was simply impossible to use it continuously. According to Nian Chengwei’s estimation, backtracking a cult member who has a power of the peak of Ninth Awakening Stage would require at least two-thirds of the source power of the ability user must be consumed. The Intelligence Department has backtracking-type ability users. He knows very well about the characteristics and durability of the ability.
The cultists do not take the usual path. They may leap from the rooftops or walk through small alleys—the range of backtracking was limited, increasing the difficulty of tracking.
‘Scent, aura, and other tracking methods won’t work. Final Cult is really professional, huh?’
Nian Chengwei pondered between the passing two or three hours.
Cai Jiajia was so tired that she had to do psychic again and again, and it didn’t consume much at a time. After hundreds of times, her source power pool had already gone empty three times.
If it was Pingliang’s backtracking ability, it could only be used three times. Each would require a few hours to restore the source power and then slowly tracks.
But the investigation team had already made plans to drink potions and recklessly go over.
Cai Jiajia took out a small bottle of source power recovery potion containing blue liquid, unscrewed the cap, and gulped it down.
The potion melts in her mouth, the rich potion power burst out, turning into a rushing source of power. Traveling along her body, converging to the area three inches below her abdomen, forming a bulging source power pool.
The source power in her body rapidly filled up.
It would be restored to full in three minutes.
Cai Jiajia became full of source power again and reached out to point, “They passed through this compound. Let’s go, let’s continue the chase, even if we had to chase them out of the shelter and deep into the wilderness, I will not let them go.”
She tiptoed the ground and leaped up gently, landed on the courtyard wall.
The courtyard was dark and did not look like it was inhabited. Cai Jiajia did not care, ready to step on the eaves of the courtyard side and swept across to the opposite side. There happened to be a large four-story tall tree at the back of the courtyard.
She stepped lightly on the rubble of the eaves, and suddenly her face changed, and she leapt upwards violently.
At that exact moment, the eaves burst open with a bang. And the roof tiles shot out in all directions. The bright knife light shot out from it as if it was about to shine through the dark night.
Sun Yu, who was one step behind, jumped from the wall to the eaves, but he was unable to use his strength in mid-air.
The figure in the house saw the situation. The blade changed, the blade light like a bright train changed towards Sun Yu.
Sun Yu couldn’t avoid it and swung out his fist.
In an instant, the fist that stretched out from under the cloak turned into crystal clear like white jade!
