Chapter Forty-Seven: The Disaster of the Town
As a small town that lives on a large steel mill, Braddock Town is not very large, and there is a major road connecting the town to the steel mill in the middle of the town. Now, on the other side of the road, a huge, bright fireball was rising in mid-air, and the horizon, which had already been dimmed, was once again red, forming a large artificial cloud of fire.
"Dang!" A crisp crash sounded in Raz's ears, and Raz looked back vigilantly to find a nut embedded deep in the telephone pole beside him. This should belong to a certain machine in the steel plant, and it was actually blown away by the shock wave generated by the explosion, which shows how violent the explosion was.
"Crackling!" A continuous thumping sound rang out from the neon signs above the street buildings, and then the pieces of the signs scattered on the street, causing a riot among the crowd, and Raz even saw that some of the cables in the air were cut by the steel shards, swaying and jumping on the ground like small snakes.
"It's the direction of the steel plant, let's go put out the fire!" The people of the town rushed to the steel mill. The people of Braddock know exactly what their roots are, and most of them work in the steel mill. Even the small remaining population depends on the consumption of these workers to open bars, supermarkets, restaurants and other services in the town.
The Edgar Thomson Steelworks are the lifeblood of Braddock, and without the steelworks, there would be no Braddock.
"Boom!" As if to completely cut off the hope of the townspeople, another fireball rose again from the direction of the steel plant. This time the explosion was louder, the fireball was brighter, and the end of the road was almost completely a world of flames, and from far away on the streets of the town, you could see the raging flames when you looked up.
"This time it's the coke oven group on the left, the one on the left!" The innkeeper, who had led the way for Raz, muttered to himself with a pale face.
"What are you talking about?" Raz came back to his senses, dragged the somewhat fat innkeeper in a frustrated manner, and asked loudly.
"The steel mill is not afraid of explosions, we are afraid of ......," the innkeeper explained to Raz after a steady moment.
The Edgar Thomson Steel Plant has a total of five sites, including four steelmaking converters and one coke oven. In fact, steel plants are not afraid of explosions, as long as steel plants can not avoid the explosion danger of furnaces and casting molds, the danger zone of modern steel plants is basically automatic mechanical operation, try to avoid casualties in the event of explosion.
The steel mill is afraid of fires, especially in the coke oven area, where large quantities of coal, gas and tar are stored, and once a fire breaks out in the coke oven area, the only thing the fire brigade can do is to clear the barrier and wait for the fire to extinguish itself.
"No, you don't understand, these two explosions are not accidents, they are man-made, I'm afraid this is just the beginning......" Raz loosened the neckline of the innkeeper and turned his head to look in the direction of the steel mill, with the blazing fire reflected in his eyes, "Take me to your master, we must find His Excellency the Prince as soon as possible!" ”
……
"Master!" The innkeeper knocked anxiously on the door.
It was a homely villa very close to the steel mills, and the residence of an earl of orthodox blood. According to the innkeeper who led the way, this blood nobleman held the position of the leader of the Demon Party, and basically all other blood clan members who asked to join the Demon Party and enter the steel plant had to go through his investigation first to avoid causing unnecessary trouble to the Demon Party and the steel plant headquarters.
At this distance, Raz and the innkeeper could already feel the heat coming from the direction of the steel plant. On the way to the two of them, there were several more explosions in the steel plant, large or small, and now the fire has spread to almost the entire plant.
Everyone in the town no longer had the luxury of putting out the fire, and in fact, in every corner of the town that the two could not see, except for a few bloodlines, the people of the town wisely began to evacuate to avoid being involved in the fire.
"Get out of the way!" Raz, who closed his eyes, pushed the innkeeper and gently pressed the door of the villa with his palm, "Bang! "The black walnut door burst into several pieces and scattered throughout the villa.
"Master, master!" The innkeeper behind Raz saw the old man who was crawling on the ground and motionless at a glance, and he was immediately shocked, rushed into the room in a few steps, picked up the old man of the blood clan and shouted again and again.
"He's dead!" There were more than a dozen gunshot wounds on the body of the old man of the Blood Clan, and Raz couldn't sense any breath of life.
"How is this possible, the master is a powerful blood clan, how can he be killed by a dozen bullets!" The innkeeper seemed to be very close to the old man of the blood clan, and sobbed in grief.
Looking at the deceased's dark face, Raz crouched down and plunged two fingers into the wound in the old man's chest, pulling out a silver bullet from it. There is a small pit in the middle of the warhead, and the whole thing has been completely deformed, but you can vaguely see that the warhead is carved with exquisite spell symbols.
"Holy mercury bullet! The Holy See and the exorcists are the weapons of our bloodline, and your master is the first guard at the headquarters of the Guardian Demon Party, and I hope he has already sounded the alarm to the people of the steel mill before he is killed! Raz threw the silver warhead at the innkeeper.
"The Holy See? Exorcists? The innkeeper looked at Raz blankly.
"You leave first, find a safe place to hide, and come back when the situation in the town has calmed down!" Raz's heart moved, and he turned to the innkeeper and said, "Go through the back door!" ”
"That'...... All right! Take care, my lord! The innkeeper hesitated for a moment, but seemed to sense something, quickly picked up the corpse of the old man of the blood clan, and walked away quickly through the back door of the villa.
The innkeeper had just left when two footsteps rang out outside the door of the villa, but the footsteps paused only when they reached the door, and seemed to hesitate to enter the villa.
"Come on, just come in!" Raz's eyes flashed, he picked up the ashtray on the table and pinched it gently, the ashtray shattered into several pieces, and was shot out of the villa door by Raz's shaking hand.
"Smack!" The personality outside the door blocked the fragments of the ashtray, and two footsteps sounded again, slowly entering the villa hall.
"You're coming!" Seeing the two people walking in, Raz sighed, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hide it from you!" ”
"You don't have to apologize, it's us who should apologize. The two of us have a grudge against Victor, and we were going to act separately, but we didn't have any clues about the person we were looking for, so we had to use you to lead the way! Nirna said helplessly.
"You say this fire is not the work of that person!" Serena looked out the window at the firelight and said softly.
"It stands to reason that the steel mill is the headquarters of the Demon Party, and there should be many clansmen guarding it nearby, and that person has only one Caesar helper by his side, so it is unlikely that he will cause such a big damage. Moreover, just now a blood clan here was killed by the Holy Light Silver Bullet, which should have been done by the Holy See and the exorcists. But that person is the best at taking advantage of the situation, and it is possible that the Holy See and the exorcist were attracted by him! Raz said with a deep groan.
"The fire is getting bigger and bigger, and the ordinary people and the Bloodline guards are basically isolated, maybe we can go directly to the steel mill now and look for the people we want to see!" Nelna's eyes flashed, and she said slowly.
"Good!" The other two looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
……
", they were so ruthless, they almost blew us all in!" Raleigh cried and touched the partially charred Moxican's head, "Captain, how many reincarnation teams have you shared this mission with, and how come there are explosions everywhere!" ”
"It's just that the cross-eyed guys, God knows who they notified, and this hidden mission was originally passed on from Lao K's side, so most of the reincarnators in this mirror world are here!" Shen Mo said with a smile and a smile.
"Isn't it, that old K has so much appeal?" Qinglan, whose hedgehog head was burned into dysentery, was a little crazy ~ rubbing her hair.
"This has nothing to do with whether Lao K has appeal or not, this task, a discerning person knows at a glance that it is not something that can be completed by a team. The steel plant is a large industrial complex, and it is easy to touch it and put a few **, but if you want to destroy the entire steel plant, it is definitely not something that a reincarnation team can complete. Since a team can't eat, everyone will naturally call friends! Shen Mo spread his hands and said helplessly.
"If I had known, we wouldn't have used it! With so many reincarnation teams, we don't get much oil and water! Raleigh said a little frustrated.
"Hehe, that can't be said to say, the difficulty of this task lies in manpower, not in specific implementation, and there is also a degree of world exploration, why not pick it up cheaply!" Shen Mo smiled slightly, "What's more, the coke warehouse we blew up just now is an important target, and it should contribute quite a lot." ”
"Regiment commander, then let's blow up a few more targets, and catch a little more!" Qinglan was about to touch up her makeup, and when she heard Shen Mo say this, she put away her makeup box and said eagerly.
"No need, just accept it when you see it, notify them of the cross-eyed, our two teams will join forces to intercept and kill the Blood Clan Demon Party in the town, this task has more than one goal!" Shen Mo's face showed ruthlessness.
"Leader, why don't we try to find that blood prince, killing him will directly be one-third of the task completed!" Raleigh said suspiciously.
"That's too difficult, have you forgotten the last time we faced Lucian, we were almost wiped out? The risk of Lao K's necklace is really high! Shen Mo pouted, "I don't estimate that there will be many people who will take advantage of the fire in this mission, after all, other blood clan demon parties in this town can generate task rewards, and accumulating a small amount is also an option, and there is no need to take a big risk!" ”
……
The night breeze carried a wave of heat, blowing the steel mask, and Xu Mo's stealth system failed in the hot air. Standing on a high-altitude billboard next to the town's road, Xu Mo silently watched the steel mill turned into a furnace, and the slaughter hidden in the darkness against the members of the Blood Demon Party, the once peaceful town had completely turned into hell.
"Erwin, my mission is over, what you want me to bring to Victor, I've brought it all! The end, or the beginning, it's up to you......" Xu Mo's whisper slowly dispersed in the evening breeze.
