Chapter 412 Video Details, The Devil’S Logo!
"Did you see anything?" Yu Wujian asked.
Chen Yu shook his head.
This fragmented scene, without any explanation, cannot extract any useful information.
"This person is named Lang Xinping, a high-level official in the River Sun City administrative system, serving as the Deputy Mayor in charge of finance, livelihood, and propaganda systems," Yu Wujian said.
"He's actually a high-ranking official in the administrative system?" Chen Yu frowned. "Then how did he get involved with the cult?"
The River Sun City cult had undergone a major purge.
The arrogant Church of Severance was completely annihilated.
The deeply hidden Church of Pain was also exposed.
Under such a thorough purge, if this high-ranking official had long been corrupted by the cult, he shouldn't have been able to hold a position in the city's management.
"At first, it wasn't discovered," Yu Wujian's expression was somewhat strange.
"His initial charge was embezzlement because a batch of national subsidies for high school students was not properly distributed, and he was reported by Zheng Ruihu, the acting principal of River Sun No. 1 High School."
"Later, through investigation, it was discovered that he had colluded with a certain spy group from Sakura Country and accepted bribes."
"In this video, the charges he was being interrogated for were also embezzlement and bribery, because it involved children who had not yet transferred, and there were foreign spy groups involved, so the investigation was more intense."
"So, initially, you didn't know about his connection to the cult, and you were just using conventional tactics to blackmail him? And then he inexplicably confessed?" Chen Yu was astonished.
"That's right," Yu Wujian nodded.
"This was originally an internal incident within the administrative system, to be handled by Cloud River Province itself."
"After discovering that things were unusual, the intelligence department and countermeasures department were informed, and his connection to the cult was gradually reported up the chain."
"I was also very surprised when I first reviewed the case file."
"So, up until now, has there been any other progress?" Chen Yu asked.
"No," Yu Wujian said, "I just arrived in Nine Peaks City."
"The experts from the intelligence and countermeasures departments are still analyzing and investigating."
"At present, only traces of the cult and the ritual for the descent of a demon god have been found in several of his residences."
"Based on the intensity of the ritual, it is highly probable that the demon god behind it will manifest its true form!"
"Understood," Chen Yu took a deep breath.
Different evil gods, depending on the ritual formation used, can only exert their maximum power up to the half Divine Level in the Blue Star world.
Typically, the descent of an evil god involves the use of avatars.
While the true form's descent can maximize the preservation of power, it also carries certain risks.
Once the power is used beyond the limit, the world's divine punishment is no joke.
With the size of the Blue Star world, even a mid-level god like Yue Yan wouldn't be able to withstand it.
It is estimated that only a high-level god could withstand it, but the ultimate result would still be the destruction of the Blue Star world.
"Show me the video again."
"Okay."
Upon hearing this, Yu Wujian immediately replayed the video for Chen Yu.
The scene started from the beginning.
Chen Yu stared intently at the madman in the video, not missing any details that could potentially hide information.
Just as the video was about to end, when the madman exploded, Chen Yu suddenly shouted, "Stop!"
The video paused.
The screen was filled with a crimson light.
The madman had completely disintegrated.
The tremendous impact from the explosion distorted the surrounding environment.
The violent energy is destroying everything it touches.
Two interrogators looked horrified, one of them reacted quickly and took a half step forward, rushing towards the door.
The other person, however, had just stood up halfway and remained in a crouching position.
"They are not combat professionals, and they have already sacrificed themselves," Yu Wujiang sighed.
"Not only them, but many employees in the same office building were also affected," he continued.
"According to the preliminary statistics from the intelligence department, a total of 3 people died and 21 people went missing in this incident."
Speaking of which, these public officials were also unlucky.
They originally thought it was just a routine interrogation, but they didn't expect it to cause such a big accident.
Not only did the people involved die without a complete body, even those who were unaware of the truth also suffered.
"Go back 1 second," Chen Yu said without sympathy for them at the moment, his face serious.
Upon hearing this, Yu Wujiang immediately rewound the video to the second before the madman exploded.
"Slow it down, 100 times," Chen Yu said.
The video began to play frame by frame slowly.
Every detail of the madman's actions was clearly presented.
"Stop!"
When the video reached the twelfth second, Chen Yu shouted.
In the footage, the madman had already swelled up, his skin covered in cracks like an about-to-burst balloon.
A crimson light radiated from his body.
From the video, it was impossible to distinguish whether it was Abyss magic or blood light.
On the man's chest, a blurry Anomaly pattern could be seen.
It looked like messy scribbles made by a child with a paintbrush, but it had a disturbing Anomaly pattern.
Chen Yu had seen a similar pattern on the ritual array when the Demon God descended in the high school entrance exam ranking competition instance.
Although it wasn't the same one, it gave a very similar feeling.
Just like the tearing Demon God, the agonizing Demon God was the same.
It seemed to be the exclusive symbol of the Abyss Demon God.
"What does this symbol represent, do you know?" Chen Yu asked.
"Clap, clap, clap."
Yu Wujiang didn't answer immediately, but clapped his hands with a smile.
"Impressive, impressive!"
"No wonder you are the number one genius of our Soaring Dragon Empire, the future pillar and the designated successor."
"To notice such a small detail, the intelligence department of Cloud River Province spent a whole day to figure it out, but you found the clue when watching it for the second time."
"Seems like you're testing me," Chen Yu said speechlessly.
"Not really," Yu Wujiang shook his head.
"When different people analyze the same case, it's best not to share their findings immediately when the information is scarce and not overwhelming."
"Otherwise, it will create invisible interference, making people explore along the previous person's thinking and neglect other potentially useful details."
"Just by watching this video, it's difficult to see anything else," Chen Yu said.
"Tell me about this symbol."
"I have never seen it before," Yu Wujiang shook his head. "I compared it with the cults that have been active in the Blue Star World, and none of the Demon Gods used this symbol."
"According to the analysis of relevant experts, the symbol of the Abyss Demon God is often related to its lineage."
"The Demon God represented by this symbol should be a primordial Great Demon."
"In other words, it is a kind of demon in the Abyss that has no lineage, no race, and no foundation."
