Chapter 349: Speculations about the Murderer

The disappearance of the body at the crime scene quickly fermented on the Internet, attracting the attention and discussion of countless netizens. In this period of time when the topic of superpowers has attracted much attention, this bizarre incident has undoubtedly ignited the curiosity of the public. Moreover, when the relevant posts were blocked and cleared by the system, this move seemed to confirm their speculation, and the enthusiasm of netizens for discussion became even higher, with various speculations and conjectures emerging one after another.

At the same time, the investigation around Fastos's house, which was originally handled by the Chicago police, has also changed. As the body mysteriously disappeared, a group of people in black suits took over the scene. They were obviously from SHIELD. Supernatural events are always inseparable from the intervention of SHIELD, and the secrets hidden in Fastos's house will sooner or later be discovered by them.

However, Ajak doesn't care much about these things at the moment. After she has finished those important matters, perhaps she will consider whether Phastos' technology will have any impact on mankind.

Ajak and others returned to the Tama with Phastos' body.

There, Gilgamesh placed Phastos' body into the body examination chamber in the Tama, trying to find out the cause of Phastos' death and the murderer who killed Phastos.

Everyone gathered around the physical examination cabin, silently watching the data changes on the screen.

"The cosmic energy in Phastos' body disappeared? Who on earth would do such a thing?" Seeing that the data on the screen was the same as what Gilgamesh had said before, everyone started discussing it.

Ajak stared at the screen, lost in thought. At first, she had suspected Ikaris. After all, after the conflict with her, Ikaris might choose to strike first and defeat them one by one in order to avoid being shaken by her. However, when she tried to sense Ikaris's location, she found that he was not on Earth and seemed to be recovering in outer space.

Ajak temporarily ruled out Ikaris' suspicion, but if Ikaris was not the murderer, another possibility emerged in Ajak's mind. She remembered the figures of the abnormal people that Ikaris had shown her. Could it be that the abnormal people had murdered Fastos? As soon as this thought appeared, it took root in Ajak's mind.

Ajak told everyone what was on his mind, hoping to discuss it with everyone.

The view that Ikaris was the murderer was opposed by most people, who still did not believe that Ikaris would do such a thing. The view that the Deviants were the murderers was supported by Gilgamesh and others. After all, on Earth, the Deviants were perhaps the ones who had the greatest hatred and conflict with the Eternals.

"Deviants? Aren't they all dead? (Sign language)" At this time, Makari made a puzzled expression.

"Yeah? Could it be that the abnormal people appear again?" Jin Ge also asked in confusion at this time.

Currently, the only ones who have been attacked by the Deviants are Gilgamesh, Tina, and Ajak, while Phastos died directly in the attack by the Deviants.

Others were still unaware of the appearance of the abnormal race, because they had not been attacked at all. Perhaps it was because they all lived in human cities, and those abnormal races might have just revived and were a little afraid of crowded places.

Of course, Phastos also lived in the city, but the one who attacked him was Kro, the smartest among the abnormal people, so he could not escape death even if he lived in the city.

After Ajak, Gilgameshtina and the other two found their companions, they were in a hurry and had no time to tell them about the previous attack by the abnormal people. Therefore, King and Circe, Spite and Makari who were found later were not aware of the news that the abnormal people appeared in the world again.

"Yes, the Deviants have reappeared on Earth for some reason, and they attacked Tina and me before." Gilgamesh said. After hearing Ajak say that the Deviants were the murderers, he also remembered what happened in the Australian desert before.

"They appear to have a way of locating us, which is very suspicious indeed."

After those deviants were resurrected in the Australian area, they were able to accurately find the two of them from the vast desert. Perhaps these deviants really had some ability to locate the Eternals.

"In that case, it is very likely that the murderer is a deviant. But why would they want to seize the cosmic energy in Phastos' body?" said Sersi on the side. She was more concerned about the disappearance of the cosmic energy in Phastos' body.

Everyone fell into deep thought. They had never encountered casualties before, so they knew nothing about the cosmic energy being taken away.

"Perhaps, the reason why the abnormal races seized these cosmic energies is because they can also use these energies?" Spate's voice rang out among the crowd, attracting everyone's attention.

Ajak turned his head and looked at Spite, with a thoughtful gleam in his eyes, "You mean, the abnormal race can use cosmic energy?"

"Yes, Ajak." Spite nodded and continued, "You mentioned before that the Deviants, like us, were created by the Celestials. Since we are all products of the Celestials, it is possible that the Deviants also have the ability to use cosmic energy."

It must be said that among the Eternals, Spite is indeed a relatively quick thinker, and can always find the key point in a problem. For example, after Ajak told them the truth, she pointed out the cause of the Eternal Devil Disease, and now she also pointed out the real purpose of the Deviants to extract the energy of the Phastos universe.

This view of Spite made everyone ponder again. If the Deviants could really use cosmic energy, then there was a reasonable explanation for them taking the energy from Faustos. This also meant that the Deviants' comeback this time might be more powerful and dangerous than they had imagined before.

"In that case, what should we do now?" King looked at Ajak and said, should they seek revenge on the abnormal tribe now, or continue to complete the task of fighting against the God Group.

"Let's arrange a funeral for Phastos according to human rituals first." Ajak pondered for a while and said, "Phastos once contacted me and said that he and a human had formed a family."

Ajak didn't say anything after he finished speaking, but the others knew the whole story. They were outside the cordon at the time and heard what the passers-by were talking about. In addition to one dead person, two others were missing. Fastos and his family were killed by the abnormal people.

"We will not let this matter go, but we have to do more important things first."

In a seaside manor on the coast of New York, Noah also received a message from Lissandra. She intercepted a photo from the disappearance of the body that was circulated on the Internet. In the photo, the Eternals were photographed. These people were all the people that Noah focused on, so Lissandra informed Noah after obtaining the photo.
