279 Chapter 279

Calvin had the impression that this empty warehouse was like the palace of the evil king underground, but at this moment, it was as if he had seen a ruined tomb.

In one corner of the warehouse there was a lot of debris, mostly metal scrap of no value, rusted iron frames, empty car frames (many of the smuggled goods would be stuffed into the tires of cars and transported out at the right time when Redbeard's "business" was in good time), and some kind of machinery that was completely obsolete and had no known purpose.

Calvin walked over, and miraculously pulled a rickety chair out of the rubbish pile, and he dragged it to the very center of the warehouse and sat down.

Then he closed his eyes, his thoughts drifting out, and then connected to the eyes of those he had transformed into beings of light.

Countless images erupted into his brain like a fire hydrant from a broken sluice, and Calvin's figure shook slightly, but he quickly stabilized it with amazing willpower.

Most of them had returned to their homes (many of which had been reduced to ruins) as Calvin had previously requested, and Calvin managed to discern the scene near the docks in the midst of the chaos and noise.

Luckily, there were about three light creatures hovering around that neighborhood.

[Help me take a look and see if there is a boat arriving at the dock......]

Calvin borrowed the eyes of those men to look at the dark seaβ€”the sea seemed so deep and dark without artificial light sources. But it is precisely because of this that the "Son of Tomorrow" ...... No, the correct name would be the Rosary Chapel's lights, and the sounds left behind as it traveled.

The noise of the motor as it was turned on could be heard far and wide, and the lights flickering in the portholes and on the deck were as starlight-threatening as starlight.

Calvin was not wrong about Joshua.

He did come back.

Joshua the Monster, Joshua the Doomsday Initiator, didn't hesitate to ask Calvin for him, and he went after Calvin straight after him.

Calvin stared at the ship as it approached the shoreline, his heart growing heavy and his blood cold.

Yes, the end of it all is getting closer.

Calvin could feel this, and the power in his body was surging uneasily, as if it were creating a tidal force on another person's body from a constant distance.

There was something faint in the air that was jumping, stirring, pushing Calvin.

"Calvin ......"

Red Deer nudgled Calvin gently, forcing him to withdraw from his trance-like and mysterious state.

"Hoo ......"

After returning to reality, a strong feeling of dizziness instantly rushed towards Calvin, and he almost fell straight out of his chair.

Red Deer quickly hugged him.

"My dear, it's not all started yet. You're already pushing a little too hard. ”

He affectionately wiped the cold sweat from Calvin's forehead.

"Here he comes. ”

Calvin muttered.

He didn't raise his voice, but the empty warehouse had an opera-like effectβ€”

"He's coming...... Here it comes...... Here it is......"]

The murmur elicited countless echoes, and the responses were layered, vibrated and amplified so that it sounded less like Calvin's voice than the murmur of someone or unknown creature.

Then, another roar tore through the silence - the tin roof to the northeast had become more and more fragile from years of decay, and then it had decided to break open today, leaving a huge gap in the impossibly dilapidated warehouse.

The roof was originally made of four thick iron sheets that had been cut industrially and reinforced with rivets in between. Now, however, the rivets are long gone, and the large piece of roof has broken and formed a rather conspicuous cross-shaped crack.

This sudden hiccup caught Joyce and Han off guard, and the two of them almost jumped out of their workplace.

Oh yes, while Calvin was observing Joshua's itinerary, Joyce and Han had already begun their work.

"Just a little accident. ”

Calvin looked up at the cross-shaped crack, where a small, dark purple cross had formed as the sky grew darker and darker.

He stared at it involuntarily and smiled slightly.

And there seemed to be a magical power in his voice, forcing Joyce and the others to calm down instantly.

Before that, they had walked around the ruined warehouse, as Calvin had said.

They then used a crowbar to pry open the loose floor, followed by loosely buried gravel and dirt.

Beneath the dirt, β–‘β–‘ were wrapped in a thick plastic film and stacked neatly there.

But these gadgets can only be said to be a small toy compared to the buckets of magnesium powder neatly arranged under them.

"Oh my God, it's spectacular.

Both Joyce and Han were well aware of the fact that there was β–‘β–‘ buried at the bottom of the warehouse (in fact, the rebar on the roof of the warehouse was also covered with a self-detonation system that had been prepared under the direction of Dr. Holden countless years ago).

But they didn't expect that the β–‘β–‘ piled up under the warehouse would be so "spectacular".

Joyce and Han slowed down their movements, they took out one of the packets of β–‘β–‘, and then took a closer look.

"Very old design. ”

Han leaned over and let out an exclamation at Joyce's side.

"But quite efficient. ”

Joyce said.

He felt his throat dry a little, because in his opinion, what Calvin had said earlier was just some nonsense - Calvin claimed that the β–‘β–‘ in the warehouse was just a self-destruct system set up by Redbeard just in case, but after actually seeing the scene, Joyce was sure that unless Redbeard wanted to create a miniature mushroom cloud on the outskirts of Los Angeles, then he didn't need to hoard and set up so many β–‘β–‘ at all.

"Once these things are detonated, the people in them probably won't even be able to leave their ashes. ”

Han said softly.

He believed that his words should reach Calvin's ears clearly, but Red Deer and Calvin remained immersed in their own world as if they hadn't heard it.

Joyce sighed in Han's ear.

"He knows. ”

He said.

"But ......"

"Our Mr. Red Deer should find a way. ”

Joyce said dryly.

He was very cowardly and selfish and did not ask Calvin anything more at all.

Joyce and Han then quickly set up all the β–‘β–‘ in a deathly silence - he made some improvements to the β–‘β–‘ β–‘β–‘ system and added some new β–‘β–‘ to the joint points of the warehouse.

He thought it had taken him a long time to do the work, but when it was all done, Joyce realized that it hadn't been long.

Joyce was at a loss, he never imagined that one day he would be standing in an empty field like a middle school student who had been called up by a teacher, completely unsure of what to do. Those β–‘β–‘, this warehouse, all of this is very strange.

Joyce even had an uncontrollable idea that perhaps many years ago, the warehouse had been bought by the man called Redbeard, not as an underground warehouse for some bullshit smuggling, but to bury so much β–‘β–‘ in the area, and finally blow Joshua, Calvin, and Red Deer to pieces.

Oh yes, normal people's perception of β–‘β–‘ is still stuck in the fire effects of Hollywood movies, but Joyce is not that kind of person, and a cursory glance at the trap set by Redbeard and Dr. Holden many years ago already gives him a rough picture of the terrible situation after the explosion.

He was sure that if there was an explosion here, the only thing Calvin could see would be a dazzling white light, and then his whole body would be torn into countless pieces by the terrible air currents and heat.

……

By the time Joyce put the last piece of floor back in place, the former detective straightened up and put down his tools.

He stood there, then looked into Calvin's calm eyes.

"Everything is done. ”

He said.

"I don't know what your plans are, maybe you do have any special powers, but these β–‘β–‘ are real...... God, I really don't know if I made the right decision. In short, if you want to survive this explosion, you must move quickly. ”

Because at all times this place will become a huge pit that is black and there is nothing left.

Joyce didn't say that last sentence.

He believed that Calven confessed it all.

"Thank you, Joyce. ”

Calvin lowered his eyes, paused, and then calmly replied, as if not noticing Joyce's strangeness.

"Also, thank you, Han. ”

Then he turned his head and whispered in an equally gentle and calm voice.

"I can handle it all, and I'm not alone this time. ”

"I'll always be with you, don't be afraid. ”

Red Deer wrapped his arms around Calvin from behind and kissed the latter's hair, muttering sweetly.

To be honest, he was probably the only one in the warehouse who was quite happy, as if his wish had finally been fulfilled for many years.

This is in stark contrast to the other two police officers, you know, at this time, Han and Joyce are almost identical, in a state of silence and shock, even if they hear Calvin's words, it will take a while for the two of them to react.

"You should get out of here, Joshua will probably be here in a little while. I don't think you'll want to see him, and ......"

"It's really dangerous here. ”

Han said to Calvin hesitantly.

But Calvin just smiled and shook his head.

"He's just here for me. ”
