In the industrial zone of W City, or more specifically, on the edge of the industrial zone, several security guards who are responsible for night patrols are conducting routine nightly security patrols.

This is a necessary safety measure as there are several warehouses built here. On the surface, this area is very large, and if someone is hiding in some green belt or other corner, it is extremely difficult for a few patrol officers to find it. In reality, however, the situation is not so complicated - because the warehouses are full of raw materials and products, and the unit value is not high. So if you are stolen, the thief will definitely need to carry the car in batches, so the patrol route is actually the road, and choose those places where the car may be hidden.

The security guards had walked to the edge of the industrial zone, the farthest warehouse. Although the street lights along the road are still bright, in fact, there is almost a dead silence all around. If you were walking alone in such a place, you would be terrified. However, it is different when there are many people, everyone is talking and laughing as they walk, and one of them is telling a meat joke that has been very popular recently, causing bursts of laughter from his companions.

A security guard suddenly stopped, looking around suspiciously.

"What's wrong?" asked his companion next to him.

"You ...... Do you hear that voice? It seems to be ...... Explosions. He gestured in the next direction. "It feels like ...... Did that unfinished building over there explode? Or did it collapse?"

As soon as he said this, several people immediately listened attentively. But nothing was heard.

"What...... Delusion. And even if that building collapses, it's not a big deal!" said a man next to him. Indeed, as he said, the collapse of that building was also an inconsequential thing. Because there will be no loss of life or property involved at all, and it may even be a good thing. Because that way, it will be easier to demolish that building in the future.

As he spoke, there was a warehouse in front of them, or rather, the outermost warehouse in this direction. The route of their patrol will turn in front of the warehouse. Because of this, several people saw from afar that there seemed to be something wrong in the warehouse.

In the middle of the night, the warehouse door was actually open, and so was the light inside, and the bright light was shining out through the warehouse door. On top of that, the muffled hum of the generators could be heard from afar.

They walked over and easily saw a person in the middle of the warehouse.

They knew there were a bunch of generators in the warehouse, and now, all the generators were working.

"Hey, that ......" The security guards looked at the pile of running generators, the wide open doors, and the lights all on, and couldn't figure out what was going on for a moment. However, it doesn't look like a thief. After all, these generators are all of that kind of large goods, at least a few hundred kilograms, and you have to be a professional machine to remove them.

"Ah, what are you doing?" the young man, who was busy wiring, saw the security guards standing outside the door and stood up to reply.

"What are you doing here at this late hour?" asked a security guard.

"Nothing, just proofreading the generator. The man walked out.

"Are you...... The owners here?"

"Yes, my name is Lu Wu. Lu Wu replied. "I didn't have time during the day, so I came over at night. ”

The security guard was still not at ease, and even called the management office and proofread Lu Wu's identity. However, it is easy to prove that this young man named Lu Wu is the owner of this warehouse and the owner of such a large number of generators.

After figuring out Lu Wu's identity, the security guards apologized and left.

"Do you think this looks weird?" they had walked a distance, and one of them asked suddenly. "It's strange, why did you come here in the middle of the night to proofread and debug the generator?"

"What's strange about this, it's probably sold, and someone else will come to inspect it tomorrow. So even in the middle of the night, you have to rush over and debug it first. ”

"It's possible. ”

As they spoke, they continued along their original route, their figures fading into the end of the road. Behind them, Lu Wu watched them go away before returning to Holoera's side.

The white machine is now placed in an inconspicuous corner. The power supply for the Holoera is plugged into the plug board, and all the generators are powering the plug board.

At this moment, Amber's form is appearing in the crystal pyramid in the middle of the Holoera. And even in Holoera, her figure looks illusory and blurry, making people subconsciously understand that she is in a bad state.

"Amber, how are you?" Lu Wu asked. "What's going on?"

"It's not bad. Amber barely smiled. "It's going to take a little bit of rest to recover. Lu Wu, the battle is actually going very well...... It's just that the explosion was too powerful. ”

"The explosion is too powerful?" Lu Wu was a little strange. Dust explosion or something, it can be said that it is the weakest of all kinds of explosion methods. It can be said that it was originally a setting that is better than nothing. It is possible to say that it is possible to hurt people, but it is estimated that it is difficult to achieve the level of fatality.

"yes, give the whole floor at once...... Boom ......"

"Where's the Evil Spirit?"

"I guess I was hit hard, but I escaped. Amber said. "I don't think it will last long, though. ”

"What do you mean......"

"In order to attack me, the evil spirit used powerful magic to strengthen his body at all costs. Hmph, this means that she will be ostracized by the world more and more...... If it is ...... in a short period of time About an hour...... If it can't plunder the flesh and blood, it probably won't be able to maintain its existence and disintegrate directly. Amber smiled again. "But I'm the same with that...... In order to fight against the evil spirits, I was also strongly rejected by the earth world...... But in any case, it is still the one who suffers the big loss. ”

"You're saying she's going to take human flesh again...... Is it murder?"

"Well, that's right. But it's now in a dilemma. Now he's too far from the city...... As for here, the surrounding area is so desolate that there don't seem to be pedestrians at all. ”

"Will it run to the city?" Lu Wu asked.

"No way. Unless it uses magic again to enhance itself, it can't run faster than the average person. At this rate, by the time it reaches the city, it must have already disintegrated. ”

"And what about the magic it uses?"

"The stronger and faster the magic used, the more repulsive it will be, and the shorter it will last. Amber replied. "This time...... It should have been won. ”

"Lu Wu...... I've got to go and rest, that building...... There's also ...... inside Check it out......"

Her voice became muffled and slight, and then her figure suddenly disappeared, probably unable to support it.

Lu Wu stood up straight. The demon doesn't know which way it's going, but, according to Amber, as long as it doesn't find a group of people before entering the city, it's finished. At this midnight point in the middle of the night, in the wilderness, the possibility of finding a group of people should be very low. But what did Amber just mean?

Is there anything else on the streak in that building?

……

J lay quietly in a pile of cement debris.

He is now completely immobile...... Because in addition to the injuries on the body, one foot was caught in a huge cement prefabricated slab.

The surroundings had completely calmed down, the battle just now, the incredible demon, the sudden goddess, everything disappeared with that explosion. The world is back to normal.

And the reason for the explosion is very simple - J has converted the original joke-like dust explosion trap into a powerful explosion trap. The method of transformation is also very simple, that is, it is replaced with high-energy explosives.

As for the reason...... It can only be said that it was a whim.

And then, it happened. There was an explosion, and then ...... J was the only one left on the entire ninth floor.

Although his body was full of injuries and his head hurt terribly, his mind was unusually clear. Or maybe you feel that your mind is unusually clear. J knows, it's a sick feeling. It was supposed to be a blow to the head that triggered the consequences of the concussion.

I don't know what happened, it stands to reason that the police had come out at this time, but I didn't hear anything in my ears. Is the police all gone? Of course, it was easy for that demon...... But it shouldn't be possible, because if it's all gone, what happened to the previous sniper shot?

A possibility popped into J's mind...... Could it be that this is not a large-scale police operation, but a private operation of one or two police officers?

Philip did read the plan from a police officer's personal office computer, which may not even be "office," but just a personal computer. And it's an ominous thing (but at the time, J thought it might just be a temporary draft, anyway, he got the specific location and approximate time, and he didn't care too much about other details).

If the police don't come, then things will be bad. It's a deserted building in the middle of nowhere, and no one will come to the side...... At the level of a human being, no one will hear even if you shout it through your throat.

In fact, because the location was so remote and so far away, even the huge explosion just now, probably no one cared - if anyone even heard it.

If you are seriously injured and unable to move, you will ...... Is it so silent to die here?

If you have your phone on you, you'll be fine, but unfortunately, all the communication tools that are not related to the battle are placed on the fourth floor. What was supposed to be a very simple thing is now the stupidest thing to do.

No, it's not the stupidest, it's the stupidest thing to be that you actually challenge such a monster as a human.

He burst out laughing, though even the full strength of his laughter was weak because of the pain and weakness, and the laughter was almost immediately swallowed up by the silence around him. Then, he heard the slightest movement downstairs.
