The training ended after a week, and everyone who participated felt that they had learned a lot.

Except for Gecko, Troublemaker Kid, Red Snake, Goddess, Watchdog, Kid, etc., there are people who are not serious at all in their learning attitude.

It was also because they were being trained in the same auditorium that all the ability users were severely despised by the researchers. It was no longer just the look of a top student looking at a scumbag, it was the look of a fool who looked at the person who entered the treasure and did not quickly put it in his pocket, but sat next to the treasure and dozed off, or even threw such a big gold brick into the river to float away. It was contempt and hatred!

Such a precious thing, such a rare sharing of knowledge.

These people can't learn?

Tsk tsk, as expected, the world is completely hopeless just relying on these people, and it still depends on us...

At the end of the training, the researchers were all confident.

The ability users were also in high spirits, looking as if they were finally liberated, and were even happier than the researchers.

Of course, Lu Xin is an exception.

He gained the respect of both researchers and ability users.

The ability users looked at Lu Xin with a little awe and a little sympathy.

Everyone knows that people with abilities are sharpened branches, so there are some problems, but in the case of Lu Xin...

... The problem seems to be a bit big!

As for the researchers, including Professor Bai, everyone looked at Lu Xin with excitement and admiration.

They were even so excited that they didn't know what words to use to express their gratitude to Lu Xin.

After all, if you look through your notes, you can find:

The most valuable thing in this training was what "Professor Bai" said at the beginning.

The most specific things are all mentioned by Lu Xin.

... A series of famous quotes, which seem to have philosophical meaning, come from the mouth of Professor Bai.

It was precisely because we knew how valuable what Lu Xin said was that at the end of the training, we unanimously decided to give Lu Xin a special honorary professor title. And everyone agrees that in the field of spiritual power research, Lu Xin is definitely at the top level.

But Lu Xin refused.

I just want a diploma...

Especially a title with "special" and "honor" in front of it, can it be taken seriously?

I know very well, how can I be fooled so easily.

Of course, after the researchers, especially those who could keep their word, such as Professor Bai and Mr. Su, agreed to give themselves a formal diploma, Lu Xin said that the title of special honorary professor they mentioned was not impossible.

However, this title is not given to myself, but to Mom.

I begged Mom for this opportunity, so of course I couldn't let her come in vain...

Although Lu Xin's proposal made everyone feel a little weird, they still agreed out of respect for the unknown.

And after carefully asking about Lu Xin Mom's name, the name was decided as:

"Ms. Lu!"

Qinggang University Special Honorary Professor Ms. Lu!

Age: unknown

Gender: Female?

Height: unknown

Origin: unknown

Race: unknown

"All the sorting, sharing, and work assignments that need to be done have been completed in this week."

"You guys can get ready, we've got a lot of work to do."

At the end of this training course, Professor Bai made a speech to everyone, and his attitude even seemed a bit serious:

"Frankly speaking, the current situation is already very serious."

"..."

"Are they those eyes in the sky?"

Lu Xin asked Professor Bai curiously, and looked up.

During this week, the eyes in the sky opened again, and from visual inspection, the distance seemed closer.

Qinggang has been arranging for people to test him.

Even those who need to come to participate in training courses must rush to the monitoring station immediately after the training.

However, Lu Xin also noticed that their detection and observation did not seem to provide many valuable clues.

Now I know that such a pair of eyes appears in the sky, and I also know that it will occasionally open and approach Qinggang.

The speed of approach is not fast, but within ten days, it has been close three times.

Every time it comes close, the pressure of Qinggang City will increase by one point, and there is a squeezing feeling in the air.

Because Kid is here, this pressure has not yet affected Qinggang.

However, the news of the appearance of these eyes has already spread in Qinggang, causing discussions in the streets and alleys.

Qinggang couldn't prevent other people from seeing these eyes, couldn't prevent them from talking about it, and couldn't even respond to the large number of inquiries every day. Therefore, he could only tell a lie as usual, saying that Qinggang was experimenting with some new type of projection equipment.

I don't know exactly how many people believe it.

"These eyes are one thing."

Professor Bai took a few steps forward with a cane, handed a file to Lu Xin, and whispered, "We will handle it."

"But this is what needs to be told to you right away."

"..."

Lu Xin took the file and flipped it over with a slightly startled expression.

"Regarding these eyes, we have been actively deploying them, making a lot of speculations, and asking for help from Eclipse Research Institute and other places. This is an obvious problem, and the pressure and consequences it will bring can be predicted."

Professor Bai said softly, "But this incident makes it impossible for us to even predict."

When Lu Xin saw this information for the first time, he understood where Professor Bai's worries came from.

Perverted serial murder case.

The folder Professor Bai handed over contained records of recent bloody murders around Qinggang.

Judging from the data, most of the people killed were high-level people from various forces around Qinggang. Some were leaders of gathering points, and at worst, they were people in high positions, such as members of the secret knights, captains of wild scavenging teams, labor market managers, etc.

Most of these people were trying to get off the hook, so it is not surprising that they died of homicide.

The reason why Qinggang paid attention to them was that these people who were killed had several obvious characteristics.

One is the method of death, which is extremely bloody and cruel. Most of them died of torture.

Second, these people all left a document with them, which recorded the sins they had committed and also signed it.

"Number eight?"

Lu Xin knew the truth of the matter at the first glance.

Not to mention, the first photo taken above was signed exactly "Xu Jing".

"You know him?"

Professor Bai saw the change in Lu Xin's eyes and asked in a low voice.

Lu Xin nodded, but didn't say much. Instead, he raised his head and looked at Professor Bai.

Professor Bai understood immediately and whispered, "Things have been happening for a while, but they all happened at various gathering points outside. Similar incidents have not happened in Qinggang. Because it caused panic outside, it was reported to Qinggang and investigators had to be sent out. However, except for these cards left with the deceased, we have not found any valuable discoveries."

"It is worth noting that this kind of thing does not only happen around Qinggang."

"I have contacted other High Wall Citys. Similar lynching incidents have occurred in many cities within the alliance, even some large gathering points, and other organizational jurisdictions. There are not many in each place, but when added up, it is a terrifying number."

"However, the most worrying thing is another thing."

"First, through data calculation, we can see the horrifying increase in the number of similar lynching incidents."

"The earliest record was a year ago, and it was not noticed at all."

"But as time goes by, more and more incidents occur."

"The distribution of their occurrence locations seems to be unobstructed, but the number of occurrences is increasing exponentially."

"Every once in a while, there is a surge of fear..."

"And this matter has developed from an ordinary murder case to an S-class incident in just one year."

"An S-class incident targeting the entire alliance, or even the entire world."

"..."

Lu Xin Listening to Professor Bai's words, he suddenly understood something and suddenly raised his head and looked at him.

There was a slight questioning look in his eyes.

"Yes."

Professor Bai nodded slightly. "If you look at it as pollution, it is spreading to the entire world at a terrifying speed."

"So many people, so many powerful forces, and even Research Institute..."

Lu Xin frowned tightly. "Didn't anyone stop them?"

Professor Bai shook his head and said, "One of the factors that is rated as an S-level pollution incident is that it has no solution."

"Today, there are very few pollution incidents that can be rated as S-level. This is one recognized by all parties."

"This kind of pollution seems to have no fixed place of occurrence and no precise pattern, so it is very difficult to investigate. In addition, wherever this kind of pollution passes, it can always be supported by a large number of followers, forming a carnival effect..."

"Not to mention ordinary High Wall City ability users, even the senior investigators of Research Institute have not been able to trace their traces."

"That's why Eclipse Research Institute personally characterized this incident as an S-level pollution incident."

"The code name is: Midnight Court."

"..."

Lu Xin I remembered the elegant and calm face of No. 8 when I saw him before, and felt a little depressed in my heart.

"Their..."

Lu Xin paused for a moment before asking, "Is it a big negative impact?"

Professor Bai was slightly surprised. From Lu Xin's inquiry, he could see his hesitation on this matter.

He seemed to want to ask something, but he didn't ask. He just nodded slightly to Lu Xin and said, "You can look behind."

"The information at the bottom."

"..."

Lu Xin nodded, flipped through the information, looked at it intently, and suddenly froze on the spot.

Professor Bai whispered, "Although we have never caught the specific law enforcer, and we have not thought of an effective way to curb Midnight Court, through the summary of lynching cases, we have also discovered some signs before the mysterious incident of Midnight Court occurs."

"Every person executed by Midnight Court has some weird spiritual power appearing around them in advance."

"It's both a countdown and a mark that can be understood."

"And now..."

He paused and said, "This kind of mark has already appeared within the high walls of Qinggang."

Lu Xin nodded slightly.

He looked at the mark and saw the marked man.

Teacher Lu.
