"However, what happened to Siegel this time also reminded me that I can't let those Reincarnators in the real world have too much free time. Fortunately, there are enough of them now, and it's time to make good use of them."
After Bob left, Wu Ming looked into the distance through the floor-to-ceiling window, and a strange look flashed in his eyes.
[Ding! Reality mission activated!]
[Reincarnators must complete a reality mission every three times they enter the plot world. Otherwise, they will be obliterated!]
…
At that moment, the mechanical voice rang in the ears of countless reincarnators, causing their expressions to change drastically at the same time.
The main reason why Wu Ming nurtured the Reincarnators was to wait for them to grow up before harvesting the fruits and promoting the development of the Creator Space.
Another purpose was to use their strength to explore the real world.
After all, many dangerous ancient ruins were difficult to explore even with current technology, and the requirements for adventurers were very high.
The purpose of Wu Ming issuing reality missions was to make these Reincarnators take responsibility and search the entire Steam World for him. Wu Ming did not believe that he could not find any clues about that almighty being.
Even if these Reincarnators died on the way, the Creator Space would recover their truesouls and turn them into nourishment. It could be said to be used 100% without any wastage.
…
Time passed quickly. Violet Gold Federation, Supernatural Phenomenon Management Office.
Lucius, who had completed the investigation and became the assistant to the chief, still looked a little thin, but he was in good spirits and looked high-spirited.
"If I didn't check, I wouldn't have known. After checking, I was shocked!"
He threw a stack of files on the desk. "In recent years, especially in recent months, supernatural phenomena have occurred frequently, accompanied by a large number of missing people …"
To be honest, the rate of solving cases in this world could not be compared to that of Wu Ming's previous life.
The primitive accumulation and expansion of capital itself was full of evil. Even within the three major steam powers, social contradictions were very acute, and there was a clear distinction between the different classes. It was very popular for the rich to hire bodyguards. If they were not accompanied by the police or bodyguards, they would not dare to enter the slums.
The security in the wealthy district was good, but in the poor district, robbery, murder, fraud … all kinds of crimes were committed. It was no different from hell.
Of course, the occasional disappearance of a few people was indeed not a major case in the eyes of the local police station.
But to Lucius, the situation was still too obvious.
"The data do not lie. If we draw a statistical map and integrate the data, we will find that the missing population of the federation has been soaring since last year. It is completely abnormal!"
Lucius took out a few more files, all of which were reports of suspected Arcanists.
Some of them were originally ordinary people, but now they had all become rich overnight and displayed incredible abilities in certain aspects.
"How … childish! It's like a kid who just got a new toy and can't help but show it off … "
Lucius murmured. He seemed to sense a presence hiding in the shadows, bestowing them with power.
After all, according to the investigation, not only did these suspects have different experiences, but they were also ordinary people with no abnormalities — which was very similar to Siegel the werewolf.
Because of the humiliation of his escape, Lucius had especially kept a separate record of the werewolf case. He was always paying attention to the latest developments of the case, and it could even be said that he knew himself better than Siegel.
"Perhaps … this is also a clue to capture Siegel!"
Lucius tilted his head and immediately signed his name on a few arrest warrants with a fountain pen that was full of ink. "In the name of the Federation, I authorize you to take a series of necessary measures!"
It had to be said that the feeling of writing and giving instructions was quite satisfying! Lucius almost fell into the sweet whirlpool of power.
With the issuance of the arrest warrants, an undercurrent suddenly arose in the entire Federation.
…
"Lucky Lake, he won again!"
In a luxurious casino, many gamblers gathered in a circle excitedly, watching the gambling duel in the center.
To them, the tarot cards, the constantly spinning dice, and the slot machines were filled with an indescribable beauty, and they could not help but be deeply enchanted.
At this moment, there were only two people gambling at the big table in the center.
A man in a platinum suit was obviously an expert in charge of the casino. At this moment, cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
Opposite him was a middle-aged man in ordinary clothes, but the chips in front of him were piled up like a small mountain.
Just by looking at it, gamblers could tell that there were at least millions of gold dollars piled up there! Just thinking about it made them extremely excited.
"Hehe … Sorry, I won again!"
The middle-aged man spread out his cards. It was a straight flush as if he was mocking the incompetence of the dealer opposite him.
He stretched out his hand and took the last few chips from the dealer. "How about it? Are you still playing? "
Obviously, no matter what, the casino could not say that it would not gamble.
After all, it relied on gambling to make a living. Once the news of the casino refusing to gamble because it was afraid that the gamblers would win spread, the entire casino could immediately close down.
"Customer, you must be joking. As long as you are willing, we are always at your service!"
A person in charge, drenched in cold sweat, stood up and smiled apologetically. He did not know what to do.
Their casino was overseen by an internationally renowned gambling expert. Generally speaking, having an expert of this level overseeing the casino was enough to handle most challenges.
If a true God of Gamblers was short of money, they could just casually greet the casino, and there would be people willing to lend or even give gold dollars. They would not be reduced to this state.
However, this guy clearly did not have the temperament of a gambling expert. In fact, there was no trace of him cheating at all. Moreover, he did not know the rules at all. He was like an ordinary person who was extremely lucky.
It was normal to be lucky once, and it was possible to be lucky ten or twenty times. But what if it was the same every time?
The person in charge had secretly informed the mercenaries. If this guy did not know what was good for him, he could only use force.
By then, no matter how much money he won from the casino, he would not be alive to spend it!
"Haha … Unfortunately, I've played enough today!"
Lake laughed loudly and said to the beautiful dealer next to him, "Please exchange these chips for gold dollar bills!"
"Okay! Okay! "
Although it was very painful to lose a lot of money, the dealer actually felt relieved at this moment.
After all, if the other party kept winning like this, he might win the entire casino.
"Haha … I like gold dollars. Here's your tip!"
After receiving the bill, Lake laughed with satisfaction. He grabbed a handful of gold dollars and stuffed it into the beautiful dealer's hand. He smiled frivolously. "I'm leaving, beautiful, don't miss me … Haha …"
This attitude confused the person in charge of the casino. "Who is this person?"
Woo woo! Woo woo!
However, at this moment, ear-piercing sirens suddenly sounded outside.
"Don't move. Patrol police!"
Two rows of patrol police quickly barged in. At the front was a team of elites with riot shields, followed by a large number of patrol police armed with shotguns and submachine guns.
"Get down! Don't move! "
They shouted and pointed their black muzzles at the surroundings.
Even if the casino had some bodyguards and guards, how could they be a match for such firepower?
"Is there something wrong with you guys? We have a business license and are a legal unit. We are good taxpayers of the Federation. Even a few members of Congress have received donations from us! "
Seeing that something was wrong, the person in charge immediately raised his background.
"I'm ordered to arrest a major wanted criminal!"
A police superintendent raised an arrest warrant and said loudly, "Arrest him!"
He pointed in Lake's direction.
"What? Arrest me? "
Lake quivered, as if the biggest secret in his heart had been exposed.
Seeing two patrol police surrounding him, he subconsciously wanted to raise his hand, but immediately hesitated.
After all, he was just an ordinary person. Even if he had obtained power, he still didn't have the courage to rebel against the national machine after decades of propaganda by the Federation.
And it was this moment of hesitation that caused Lake to lose his last chance. Several tranquilizer guns were fired at him at the same time, and soon after, he was fiercely pressed to the ground by a group of ferocious patrolmen. Special alloy handcuffs were handcuffed to his body as if they were free.
"The target has been successfully arrested! Snipers, be careful! Don't let him leave your sight! "
The superintendent nodded slightly when he saw Lake, who had been brought to justice, but he spoke into the microphone loudly.
"There's actually a sniper?"
The person in charge of the casino shivered. He couldn't help but feel lucky that he didn't confront them head-on.
After all, for such a terrifying force to be mobilized in the city, the power and influence that the other party represented was simply unimaginable.
"Don't stop the anesthetics. Don't give him a chance to sober up or speak!"
It seemed that Lucius had learned his lesson from Siegel last time. This time, he was very strict when formulating a plan, taking into account almost all accidents.
The unlucky Lake didn't even get to make a sound before he became a criminal. Everything in his pockets was taken away, and he was stripped naked like a pig. The person in charge watched as the large sum of money was taken away, and his heart felt as if it was bleeding.
"Why didn't you come earlier!"
There was only one voice roaring in his heart, filled with strong regret.
…
The scene that happened here in the casino had happened far more than once in the Bauhinia Federation.
Many of the Reincarnators could not hold back after suddenly obtaining power. They were like children showing off their toys, giving Professor Luther and Lucius plenty of opportunities to collect information on them.
This time, the entire Federation was mobilized, and all the major cities took action at the same time. It was claimed to be a crackdown on crime, but the actual target was the Espers who had exposed their abilities! Among them, the Reincarnators were the most targeted.
