Chapter 495 Invitation

  After making a decision, Anthony immediately ordered his subordinates to drive to Newburyport.

   While on the road, Anthony also took the time to look at the information about this investigator.

  To Anthony's surprise, this is not the first time the other party has encountered a U-level incident!

  According to the records in the archives, he was originally a citizen of Arkham. He was a little famous in the local area. He graduated from university and had no criminal record. And not long ago, he was invited by a distant relative to attend a private art exhibition held by the other party, and then encountered a U-level incident and successfully resolved it.

   It was because of this incident that the police recorded him in the investigator's file.

  However, the last record in the file caught Anthony's attention.

   It records that the opponent's fighting power is superior, not only killing the ghouls and the cultists who manipulated them, but even successfully rescuing the victims...

  In the U-level case...killed the monster? !

   I have to say that Anthony's eyes straightened when he saw this.

Anthony is hard to say about other monsters, but he has seen ghouls. In the past ten years, Anthony has participated in several U-level cases, and he was "lucky" to have a relationship with a monster like a ghoul We met face to face. He remembered very clearly that monsters like ghouls were not only terrifying in appearance, but also extremely resistant. Their skin is like a car tire, and the police's ordinary pistol will not respond to it at all, and these ghouls are not slow, and they are very powerful...

  How did this investigator get killed?

   And looking at the records, this is not just one, but a group!

   Not only that, according to the last statement of the file, the investigator called the police after killing the monsters and cultists and rescuing the victims. In other words, the police used to simply help him deal with the aftermath!

   Guys, this is okay?

  Seeing this, Anthony was stunned.

  He has been in this industry for ten years, and he has seen a lot of files. In Anthony's memory, basically in this kind of cases, most investigators choose to flee first and then call the police. In fact, some of those who were cornered and jumped over the wall in a hurry also rose up and escaped after resisting.

  Of course, from the standpoint of the parties involved, Anthony can also understand the mood of these investigators. In the face of that kind of monster, it is considered lucky to be able to escape, and it is even more lucky to be able to fight back successfully.

But in this way, it is naturally more difficult for the police, because these cultists are all rats, and they run faster than anyone else when there is a sign of trouble. The similar case files that Anthony has encountered in the past ten years add up to hundreds. However, there are only a handful of those who can really be caught and brought to justice.

  Well, it’s really the kind that can be counted on one finger.

   The rest is basically waiting for the police to arrive, and the other party has already run away without a trace.

   This is also normal. After all, investigators are not soldiers, so there is no need to give an order to rush into the sea of ​​swords and flames. When something happens, even if they investigate, they will not choose to confront each other head-on. After all, they only have one life, so how can they live through it?

  So things like this kind of stolen goods... are really rare.

  After reading the file, Anthony was naturally more curious about Duanmuhuai deep in his heart, and wanted to see what this investigator was capable of. As for why Duanmuhuai went to Innsmouth, he felt it was understandable. I have encountered that kind of thing before, and it is not unreasonable to feel unhappy to go to the beach to take a breather and travel.

  In the end, they met again at the seaside... Hey, I can only say that this investigator is really unlucky.

   While thinking about it, Anthony also came to the Newburyport Police Station, asked someone to identify himself, and said that he wanted to talk to the investigator, so the other party took him...

   "What's going on here?"

  Looking at the warehouse in front of him, Anthony was stunned.

  According to his experience, even if ordinary investigators are locked up for investigation, most of them are in the nature of detention, and if it is a little worse, they will be locked up in a single room.

  But what the **** is this warehouse? ? ?

   "Haha, we... can't let it go."

  Hearing Anthony's complaints, the local police officer also laughed and answered. After hearing his answer, Anthony also looked at him speechlessly.

   Is Newburyport such an amazing place? Prisons are full? There is no place to put it, but people can only be stuffed into the warehouse?

   Is there such an operation?

   "Open the door."

  Anthony didn't bother to talk to him, and directly signaled the other party to open the door, and the police officer hurried forward to open the door, and then Anthony walked in.

  The warehouse of the police station is generally not allowed to release people, after all, there are too many things in the warehouse of the police station. Fortunately, this warehouse is an old warehouse, and there is nothing in it, except that the lights are a little dim. Anthony walked into the warehouse, and saw that the whole warehouse was empty, except for a few empty shelves by the wall.

   "Mr. Duanmu Huai?"

  Anthony coughed and shouted.

   "I am Sergeant Anthony Polk of the Federal Police. I am in charge of the investigation of the Innsmouth case. Can you please talk to me?"

  While speaking, Anthony walked into the warehouse while cautiously looking to both sides. This kind of thing has been done a lot, and Anthony has experience. Even if ordinary investigators escape from death, they will definitely be mentally traumatized. Either they have nightmares or they cannot come out of the corner. There are even nonsense and even drunk and drugged...

  So he didn't speak loudly, and he was even more cautious, for fear of irritating the other party.

  At the same time, Anthony also murmured in his heart that the people in this police station are all for nothing, and they are locked in such a large warehouse. If he wants to play hide-and-seek with him, where can he find him?

  However, as he walked... Anthony suddenly realized that his eyes were dark.

Um? The light is off?

No?

  Anthony looked around suspiciously, but at this moment, a voice sounded from above his head.

   "Are you looking for me?"

   "Yeah, I am..."

  Hearing the other party's answer, Anthony also nodded, then he subconsciously raised his head to look up, and then...

   "———!!"

When Anthony looked at that face, he was so frightened that he almost jumped up from the spot, almost instinctively, he just rolled over on the spot, distanced himself from the opponent, then stretched out his hand and drew his gun to aim in one go, fully Showed his skills as a federal agent!

   "No, hold still or I'll shoot you!"

  “………”

   Duanmu Huai put his arms around his arms and looked at Anthony in front of him speechlessly. The latter was also taken aback for a moment before he realized it.

   "You are...Mr. Duanmuhuai?"

   "That's right, it's me."

  Duanmu Huai took out the investigator qualification certificate from his pocket and handed it over. Anthony took the gun in one hand, opened it with the other, and compared it...he was relieved.

   "Sorry, sorry, I was rude."

  While talking, Anthony retracted the gun, and at the same time cursed in his heart that those who wrote the files didn't grasp the point. You didn't write such obvious characteristics of such a grown-up person here, you were just looking at my jokes, right?

but………

   "Mr. Duanmu Huai, may I ask if this is..."

Anyway, Anthony can be regarded as a special commissioner. At the beginning, he was just unprepared. Now that he came back to his senses, he looked at Duanmuhuai suspiciously, wondering if this was some kind of sequelae—after all, many investigators were also exposed to those unscrupulous people. After the evil of the name, the body has mutated or something...

   "Oh, natural."

  “…………”

  Hearing Duanmuhuai's answer, Anthony was completely silent. He stared at the opponent's muscular and explosive body, as well as the pair of huge fists, and the original doubts in his heart completely disappeared.

  In the past, Anthony wondered how Duanmu Huai killed the ghoul, but now he met him—good guy, a fist the size of a casserole.

   No wonder it's so fierce...

  Before seeing Duanmuhuai, Anthony thought of the scene of an ordinary investigator working hard in the wind and rain.

  After seeing Duanmu Huai, Anthony directly imagined Rambo and the Devil Muscular Man...

  Although the ghoul is powerful, it is about the size of a human being, and ordinary people are like a puppy in front of this person... He is afraid of ghosts!

  Looking at Duanmuhuai, Anthony was able to imagine a few ghouls jumping on him, and then he was punched and beaten into a miserable state by the opponent...

Why? Why do you feel so refreshed?

   Even the discomfort and fear caused by just thinking about these monsters on weekdays are gone now?

  If Duanmuhuai knew what Anthony was thinking, then he would definitely tell the other party—all fears come from insufficient firepower.

   As long as you have enough firepower, then any problem is not a problem.

  Actually, most people in this world fear foreign gods from two sources.

  One is insight and the other is firepower.

  For example, many times, those scientists saw the indescribable existence subverting their cognition, and they all collapsed and went crazy.

   To put it bluntly, this is because their knowledge is not wide enough.

   On the side of the Star Alliance, there are more races in the universe, and there are even many alien races whose biological structure is reversed from that of humans, and they can't even eat the same food. Things like ghoul deep divers are placed in the Star Alliance, and people probably ignore them as mutant creatures.

  As for Cthulhu, the Star Alliance doesn't care about it. If you dare to take the lead, you will send a warship to beat him up. Cthulhu, who can definitely fight, can't take care of himself.

   After all, Cthulhu is an alien psionic creature after all, let alone a weak ship...

In fact, according to the standards of the Tribunal, most of the monsters in this world are either subspace creatures or psionic creatures, so they can spiritually pollute humans, which is one of the reasons why people in this world are so fragile one.

   After all, this world is full of ordinary people, and few people have spiritual powers. It's no wonder that these psychic creatures thrive here like ducks in water, fooling a group of people into worshiping them as gods.

   This is the same as a person with superpowers going to a world without superpowers. Rare things are more expensive...

  But Duanmuhuai will definitely not get used to these bastards.

  Of course, the shock was the shock. Anthony went through the case with Duanmu Huai according to the procedure. Duanmuhuai is familiar with this, but he can't fix Anthony. When other investigators talked about these things, they were either highly nervous or trembling. On the contrary, it was Duanmuhuai who said it flat and straightforward, and finished the whole process simply and clearly.

  How did he know that players have always done this in the game, and it has long been used to it.

  To be honest, Anthony still has some doubts about Duanmuhuai's narration, but looking at the figure in front of him that makes people feel safe, he finally swallowed those doubts in his stomach.

  After all, Anthony couldn't imagine such a burly and majestic man trembling.

   So he signed and confirmed, and then Duanmu Huai could go home.

  However, just when Duanmuhuai was about to go home and have a comfortable sleep, he saw Sergeant Anthony, who had left, turn around and come back.

   "Hello, Mr. Duanmu Huai, I have one thing I want to ask for your assistance."

"I?"

  Hearing what Anthony said, Duanmuhuai raised his eyebrows.

"That's right, in fact, in a case we just received, the other party claimed that his friend was missing... According to his description, we suspect that this is a U-level case, so... as an investigator, Mr. Let's go to investigate together?"

  Looking at Duanmu Huai, Anthony extended an invitation.
