Chapter 11 Bloodshed
The logs scattered in different shapes, completely blocking Captain Fu's path, and it seemed that being crushed to death was his only fate.
Before the bloodstains on his face had even stopped flowing, Captain Fu had already figured out what the abnormal things on the corpse were.
"A bloody disaster!" Lu Shi naturally thought of a classic metaphysical term at this moment.
This refers to the superstitious belief in ancient times that one might encounter a calamity involving murder or bloodshed; it is a frightening tactic often used by fortune tellers on the streets.
Master Shi was accidentally stabbed to death by a shelf and swords, which was a bloody disaster.
Driven by human intervention, this accidental death became an abnormal event, affecting Captain Fu and Lu Shi.
This thing is extremely bloodthirsty; it will go berserk at the mere smell of blood.
But at this moment, Captain Fu simply lowered his center of gravity slightly, staring at the logs, as if he were assessing something.
The next moment, he leaped up, his whole body enveloped in a layer of fiery red mist, and with a single punch, countless flames burst forth.
In an instant, countless flames spread, accompanied by countless heavy punches.
The logs instantly turned into fragments, burning and falling around, forming a "sea of fire".
Lu Shi, standing at a distance, was also dumbfounded.
When Captain Fu said that Level 3 ability users were a disaster, Lu Shi thought it was just an exaggeration.
However, it seems now that I was still ignorant.
Although it's unclear why there are logs at the abandoned construction site, these logs are all genuine solid wood, each one about the thickness of a human head.
However, Captain Fu was able to shatter them all in less than a second, then ignite them and disperse them around.
If the scene were changed to a street, a corpse barbecue party could probably be held in a few minutes.
All the flames burned extremely brightly, and they were all exceptionally concentrated.
A few minutes later, the flames went out, leaving only some ashes around.
Captain Fu, still wearing his leather jacket, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth as he walked out, his expression not very pleasant.
"Captain, haven't found any clues?" Lu Shi asked.
"The methods of the person behind the scenes are very professional. This abnormal thing that is causing bloodshed has grown to its full potential."
"Most of the traces have been covered up."
"The remaining bit is not something that can be sensed in the short term."
"After all, I'm not good at intuition."
Spiritual intuition is not a metaphysical ability; some people without metaphysical abilities can possess extremely absurd spiritual intuition.
Those with metaphysical abilities will also have their spiritual senses enhanced due to the nature of metaphysics.
"Is it possible that there are foreign forces involved?" Lu Shi asked.
"It's hard to say. The simulated horror of this bloodshed is actually not that complicated." Captain Fu shook his head after thinking for a while.
"There are two key points. First, it is to foresee the existence of danger and send a warning or similar message to the 'sacrifice' so that it is aware that it may suffer a bloody disaster."
"Secondly, we can use environmental factors to create a chain reaction, pushing the 'sacrifice' into a deadly threat, making it completely believe in the existence of bloodshed."
"Once these two elements are completed, a similar ritual can be performed, which will lead to bloodshed."
"Of course, there is a hidden key point here, which is that there must be a strong element of surprise in the process. Once it is discovered that someone has done something artificial, the ritual will fail."
Captain Fu briefly explained the elements that contribute to the concept of "bloodshed," and then said, "This ritual is relatively ancient and widely spread; the term 'bloodshed' has even become an idiom."
"No one can say for sure where the person behind the scenes obtained this ritual from."
"Then let's do it again!" Lu Shi looked at Captain Fu, then suddenly pointed to himself seriously: "I still have a layer of 'Blood Calamity' on me. Maybe if we do it again, we can dig out something with the experience."
Lu Shi did not forget his plans, and among these plans was a key point—to make meritorious contributions!
Now is a great opportunity to make a name for yourself.
"No, Ah Shi, you don't have any metaphysical abilities yet, and your body hasn't undergone any mutations. It's too dangerous." Captain Fu shook his head and refused immediately upon hearing this.
"Alienation?" Lu Shi's attention was drawn to the new term.
"Yes, one of the six dimensions of metaphysical abilities, symbolizing the ability's transformation of oneself."
"Some mystical abilities can cause the human body to exceed normal limits."
"The so-called top fighting styles of various martial arts schools all have a mystical element." Seeing that the topic had been changed, Captain Fu was happy to explain the details of these mystical elements to Lu Shi.
"The six dimensions of metaphysics are depth, alienation, breadth, atmosphere, scheduling, and misalignment."
"It's like evaluating a metaphysical ability from six aspects, with each dimension having a different level."
"If you reach the corresponding level in any aspect, you can be recognized as a person with the corresponding level of ability."
"Don't be fooled by how easily I handled it; I've reached level three in three dimensions, which is why I can be relatively composed."
"Under the influence of metaphysics, any accident can take your life at any time, leaving no room for error."
"So, the bloodshed and misfortune that befalls you will be addressed through routine corrective rituals..."
"Captain, I still have 2256 on me!" It was at this moment that Lu Shi interrupted Captain Fu.
"2256 itself is already a traffic disaster, and now I'm adding a bloody disaster on top of that. Even the reality stabilizer probably won't be able to work."
"When two abnormal things are combined, unexpected changes are very likely to occur."
"It would be better to deal with the bloodshed first, and then slowly deal with that 2256 who is nowhere to be found."
As soon as Lu Shi finished speaking, Captain Fu's original words were cut off.
Originally, he had never considered triggering the bloody calamity on Lu Shi, but now that he thought about it carefully, having Lu Shi under the "attention" of two abnormal things might actually be more dangerous.
"Are you sure?" Captain Fu asked Lu Shi seriously after thinking for a moment.
If you're not careful with metaphysical things, it can really be fatal. Lu Shi hasn't performed any metaphysical rituals yet, so he can only be considered an ordinary person with spiritual vision.
Although the things on him are troublesome now, as long as he stops paying attention to metaphysics like the other "unrelated people" in the infirmary and returns to a "normal" life, then the things on him will be corrected and dissipated over time.
This is also why metaphysics rarely causes major incidents.
"I'm sure!" Lu Shi said with unwavering determination. From the moment he came into this world, he had no way out.
His form of existence gives him a very high margin of error when facing various situations, but he must actively engage in these situations and cannot retreat even a fraction of an inch.
It was at this moment that Captain Fu seemed to sense a detachment from the world, as if something had changed.
But before they could sense any trace, they heard Lu Shi pause and say, as if joking, "Captain, you're not afraid that I'll pass on the bloodshed to you and harm you, are you?"
