10 minutes before the explosion...

"It should be around here, Ksumofey, I need your strength. "The same amount of energy was detected... Wait, there are two more people near that bomb, also with magic weapons in their hands, you have to be careful!"

In order not to attract attention, he came to the green belt between the buildings between the "Sorrowful Road" and the "Huishen Road", hid next to an inconspicuous tree, and then released his stealth, allowing Csumofey to activate the "Magic Perception" to check the location of the bomb.

And Cthusmofe also quickly sensed the location of the bomb, because they had sensed the magic bomb before, so Cthumofel was able to lock on to the target quickly. But he also sensed two other unfriendly energies, the one with the magic chain ball, and the two thugs were nearby. Carmon knew the power of the magic chain ball in the mob's hand, so he decided to act cautiously this time and use the 'Shadow' to take out a thug first, so that he would not be worried about one-on-one.

The location where the bomb was found was on the third floor of the business building, and the location of the rioters was not on the third floor, but near the second floor, Carmon didn't know why they deliberately arranged to disperse the floor with the bomb, but he soon knew, because the staircase on the third floor was arranged in the mall on the second floor, and near the entrance to the mall on the second floor, there was a metal detector door.

But the strange thing is that it is still the same as in the past, there are no hostages being held, the mall has not been evacuated, and there are still many customers and clerks inside. Now Carmon felt troubled, he was not sure if there were thugs disguised as civilians and hiding somewhere in the mall, after all, he could not directly conclude that there were only two thugs.

But now, Carmon had to find a way to get through the metal detector door in front of him (note (1)), but there was security near the detector door, and he couldn't go straight in or climb through the gap in the middle of the detector door. In Carmon's perception, one of the two thugs with the magic chain ball was near the door, and once the door sounded but no one was seen, the thug would know that Carmon had come here.

Carmon saw some miscellaneous items placed at the staircase on the second floor, and he had a plan, he retreated to the staircase, looked at whether there were people in front of and behind him who wanted to go up and down the stairs, and after confirming that there was no one, he lifted his invisibility. Since both sides of the staircase are full of walls, Carmon doesn't have to worry about being seen by people on the side, and Carmon only disables his stealth to use wind energy to 'blow' down one of the items in the pile.

"What's over there?" "Could it be a mouse, you can go and take a look." "Hearing the movement of the debris, one of the two guards in front of the detection door came over to check the situation here, while Carmon took the opportunity to use the 'Shadow', ran to the detection door of the police station in a stealthy state, and jumped lightly and stepped on the security checkpoint in the middle of the detection door, and then rolled over on its side, directly between the two metal detection doors, and fell to the ground safely and quietly.

Although Carmon successfully passed the metal detector gate, another doubt appeared in Carmon's mind, that is, how the two thugs with magic chain balls got in through the detector door. But Carmon doesn't have time to worry about this now, with the last 8 minutes left before the explosion, Carmon must quickly take out the two most threatening thugs and then run to the third floor to find the bomb.

Through his senses, Carmon quickly figured out where the first thug was, who was wandering around the cutlery area with one hand inside and out, and Carmon understood the reason for this strange movement, because the chain ball was hidden in it, and he had to hide it from people. But Carmon didn't rush to do it, he first went to determine the exact location of the other thug, and the other thug was near the staircase on the third floor, and at the staircase on the third floor, there was also the same metal detector door and security guard.

Carmon now understood why the thug was on the second floor and the bomb was on the third floor. Now all he has to do is to fight quickly, he quickly came to the location of the first thug, although there are civilians nearby, but Camon can ensure that this thug does not hurt the people, so Camon made a decisive move, disarmed the stealth and directly knocked the thug unconscious, and took the magic chain ball he hid.

The surrounding customers didn't know the reason, but when they saw a person who suddenly appeared and knocked out an unknown person, many customers were surprised and screamed, and such a noise must have reached the ears of the thug near the third floor on the other side, and there must be something wrong with the sudden appearance of such a sound in the relatively calm shopping mall.

But before the thug could run to the entrance of the third floor, he was pushed, and it turned out that after taking the first thug and his weapon, Carmon didn't have time to care about the people around him who had seen his voice, and ran directly to the position of the second thug, and kicked him down directly from his back, and his magic chain ball was also thrown out and fell at the feet of the guards at the entrance of the third floor.

The guard immediately picked it up, and then Carmon handed the other one of the chains to the other guard and told them, "Keep an eye on these two weapons, don't let this thug and the other thug who fell over there take them, they are important participants in the attack." ”

After saying that, Carmon was about to go to the third floor, and as soon as he walked up a flight of stairs, Carmon sensed something wrong behind him. It turned out that the two guards were holding the chain ball, and instead of putting it away, they shook it and turned to face Carmon's back.

However, Carmon only smiled, and continued to run upstairs. Suddenly, a lightning chain appeared on the chain ball in the hand of one of the guards, and it was connected to the nearest metal substance, that is, the chain ball in the hands of another guard, and the two were connected together, and an electric current instantly filled the bodies of the two police officers, where the two police officers immediately went to the end, and the clothes of the original guards revealed the same uniform as the thug who fell to the ground.

It turned out that the two thugs did not use special means to enter, but realized that the guards here had already been stunned, and the police officers near the detection doors on both sides were all disguised thugs. Carmon was only suspicious beforehand, so he applied static electricity to a magic chain ball, and once they behaved abnormally, Carmon would activate this electric energy. And because there is not enough power, even if the magic chain ball falls to the ground, it will not explode.

Carmon couldn't say for sure what would happen next on the second floor, but he had to rush to the third floor immediately to find the magic bomb. The third floor of this building is not like the second floor, like a big supermarket, but a small independent shop.

When Camon went up to the third floor, he didn't use 'Shadow', but appeared in front of the world in a grand manner, he was not afraid of being recognized, he was not worried about what the people would say, he was bent on finding the bomb and taking it to a place where no one was detonating it.

Soon, Carmon was able to find the bomb, but the bomb showed only 4 minutes left to detonate. After thinking for a while, Carmon immediately picked up the magic bomb and ran to the nearest window, and many people watched as Carmon opened the glass, and then turned out, but he didn't go down directly, but stood by the window and continued to climb up.

Camon relied on the mana of the Elder Gods to come to him, but he had his own ideas. He used his mana to jump up the window and grab the edge of the eaves on the roof, and soon Carmon climbed up to the roof.

With only 3 minutes left before the explosion, Camon didn't have time to go out of town to take the bomb to a deserted place and make sure he stayed out of the blast. So he made a dangerous decision, as before, he took the magic bomb and jumped directly into the air, but this time he did not rise to a certain height with the magic bomb, but jumped to a position of almost 30 meters, and threw the magic bomb upwards with one hand.

At this time, Carmon has fallen, but the height of the magic bomb from the roof of the business building is still slowly rising, but sooner or later it will fall due to resistance and gravity, and after landing, the magic bomb will definitely explode, and everyone in the business building will not be spared.

But Camon already had a plan, threw away the magic bomb, stretched out his other hand on the way to fall, and released an air cannon, raising the height of the magic bomb again, all Carmon completely ignored whether he could fall to the roof safely, directly crossed his hands in front of his chest, and then crossed and unfolded, and actually directly released a flame impact, directly rushing towards the magic bomb.

At this time, the detonation of the magic bomb was only about 2 minutes, and the height from the roof of the business building was already more than 50 meters, and the distance between the tallest buildings in the vicinity was also more than 100 meters. When the blast of fire hits the magic bomb, the magic bomb explodes, but this time no one is injured, and the magic bomb bursts into the air like fireworks.

As for Carmon, naturally because of the inertia of gravity, he fell on the roof of the building in a lying position, but the fall was still a small injury, it didn't matter, although Carmon's expression was painful and panting, his face was full of smiles. He did, he managed to detonate the bomb and didn't hurt anyone yet.

All the guards in the building quickly rushed to the second floor because they heard an explosion on the roof, and the identity of the thug was revealed, and they were quickly subdued, although there were only six in total (4 security guards disguised in front of the detection door).

By the time they reached the roof, Carmon was long gone, leaving only a pit on the roof that had been created when Carmon had fallen.

Tapuvi soon arrived with riot forces and escorted the six thugs away, evacuating the entire building and checking for any residue in the building. On the third floor, Tapuvi found a small black box that had been opened, and it was empty that it seemed to have been taken by someone.

Tapuvi knew who took it, and only one person could take it. So, after he left some of the police officers, he returned to the General Office. Sure enough, Carmon was waiting for him right here, and a new note had been unfolded and placed on the table.

Note:

(1) Metal detector door: This is not a typo, but it is deliberately written. It is similar to the security gate at the airport, but there are not too many strict checks, and when you walk out of the mall, you put the goods you bought at the security checkpoint and go out. (Mainly for the plot, because Carmon is wearing protective gear, and the protective gear contains iron, and there will be an alarm sound if you pass rashly...) This detail can be overlooked)
