Chapter 14: The Unexpected
Afterwards, Qian Buyi led Fang Yuan and them to the area near the core, where there was also a ring of walls.
At first glance, the pitch-black stone has been made into a boulder, and it is tightly stacked. There was also a rune looming on it, and Fang Yuan knew that it was the area where the spirit body had exploded.
The black boulder is the leftover material produced by the production of dark stone, and with the lock spirit rune, it is necessary for the spirit department to carry out tasks to besiege the spirit area.
There are many kinds of lock spirit runes, including the Zhang family, the Zhong family, Maoshan and other heavenly masters' mansions, as well as the Zhuge family's Qimen Dunjia runes, the Jiang family's spirit runes and so on.
Each faction has its own merits, but they all have the same goal, all of which are to trap and lock the spirit body and prevent the further spread of the outbreak.
Fang Yuan took a closer look, it should be the rune of the Maoshan Heavenly Master. Although he has little practical experience, he is quite familiar with these theories.
……
On the way, Zhou Zhou leaned over to Fang Yuan and suddenly asked, "How far can you see?" ”
"Huh?" Fang Yuan didn't react for a while.
"How far can you see with your different pupils?" Zhou Zhou asked again.
Fang Yuan looked at Zhou Zhou beside him, and had a strange feeling, although it was already very strange to be blindfolded. What's even more strange is that Zhou Zhou was obviously facing forward, but Fang Yuan had a feeling of being stared at by him.
"I don't know."
Fang Yuan shook his head, only now did he realize that since he had awakened the different pupils when he was a child, he never seemed to pay attention to how far he could see in the dark.
For a long time after he could remember, he thought that night was like that, that he could see farther and more than during the day. Until his father found out and solemnly told him to keep it a secret.
It doesn't matter now, there are all different pupils in the guild, as long as they are not exposed in front of ordinary people.
I don't know how far my different pupils can see in the dark, at least now I know that 500 meters is there.
Zhou Zhou didn't ask any more questions, his face was pale like a serious illness, and it looked even more pale under the light.
……
The group walked under the black rune wall, where there was a large tent that looked like a makeshift headquarters.
There were seven or eight people inside, and they were constantly discussing in the middle, and from time to time there were voices of scolding mothers.
Seeing a few people walk in, the people inside stopped talking, and a young man with gold-rimmed glasses came over and stood respectfully.
"Senior Sister Ren, Senior Brother Lei." The young man nodded at Ren Sili and Lei Ren, and then stretched out his hand to make a "please" gesture.
In the center is a black projection machine detailing the topography of the besieged area, accompanied by a profile and various data.
Several other people also greeted them one by one, and Fang Yuan saw that the two of them were arguing just now, and their faces were red, and their faces had not yet subsided.
The young man who welcomed Ren Sili and the others in was called Liang Cheng, the C-level executive commissioner of the Spirit Department. He took an infrared pen, pointed to several areas on the map that were distributed in red flakes, and said:
"Ladies and gentlemen, we conducted another probe fifteen minutes ago, and found that there were as many as six areas of spiritual eruption, and these six were still expanding. And at present, it cannot be ruled out that there is a possibility of the emergence of new outbreak areas. ”
Hearing Liang Cheng's story, and then looking at the six red areas, Ren Sili and the others frowned. Even Liu Ziming, who was grinning all the way in Fang Yuan's eyes, was full of seriousness.
Fang Yuan's heart was uneasy, even if he didn't look at the expressions of the others, he could analyze how dangerous this mission was from this. Even, it may have exceeded Ren Sili's expectations before they came.
"What should I do, are you still doing what I planned?" Lei Ren glanced at Ren Sili and asked.
He didn't say a word all the way, and he did whatever Ren Sili asked him to do, but at this moment he was no longer so sure in his heart.
"The guild expected the spread," Ren Sili said, and then glanced up at the people in the tent, "but I didn't expect it to be so large." ”
Fang Yuan nodded secretly, he looked at the six areas, distributed in different directions in the center of the ancient city of Puzhou. But he had a feeling that the areas would spread, perhaps even covering the entire ancient city center.
The atmosphere in the tent was dull again, even if the quarrel was fierce before Ren Sili and them came in, they still had confidence. However, now when they saw that the B-level executive commissioner sent by the guild seemed to be at a loss, they were at a loss in their hearts.
Fang Yuan's eyebrows were low, he didn't say a word, his timidity and caution were always hidden in his heart. In Fang Yuan's narcissistic saying, it is called "plan and then act", and it will never be messed up. The obscene saying is "wait and see, don't wave." ”
He will protect himself in the most timid but safest way possible, even if it seems comical. For example, in the ancient hall of the sealed monument, he was so frightened that he ran away.
But this time, escape was out of the question. Can I refuse a guild? The answer is obvious.
The "Godfather" Vidor Corleone will not ask for a second refusal after being rejected for the first time, and the Monument Guild will not allow even one refusal.
Fang Yuan stretched out his finger and gently poked Fang Cun's little chubby face, Fang Cun's big eyes looked at the map with dripping eyes, feeling quite magical. The two brothers had a surprisingly tacit understanding, and they didn't say a word.
Fang Yuan pinched his younger brother's face while observing the projected topographic map, he knew that no matter how he decided, the mission would not be canceled, just to see how to do it.
The six spirit eruption areas were located in the east, west, north, southeast, and northwest directions, as well as the southeast and northwest, and the explosion degree was almost the same.
"Commissioner Liang." Just as everyone was staring at the map without saying a word, someone from outside the tent came in and called Liang Cheng.
"What's the matter? Come in and say. Liang Cheng pushed the gold-rimmed glasses and called the man in.
"This is what we have newly monitored, and the image is copied here." The man handed over a tablet, his hands trembling faintly.
"What?!" Liang Cheng couldn't believe what he saw.
He trembled and output the information from the tablet and projected it onto the map. When everyone in the tent saw this, they all gasped, only to see that between the original six areas, two more spirit eruption areas suddenly appeared, occupying the northeast and southwest directions.
Outside the tent, the wind suddenly began to howl, and the windproof tent was hunting, and the lamp hanging on the top swayed.
Fang Yuan had a strong premonition in his heart, this time the level of the spirit body explosion was probably far beyond the fifth level, reaching the sixth level several times higher than the fifth level.
"Did you detect the spirit general?" Zhou Zhou, who had been silent, asked.
Liang Cheng glanced at the monitor and motioned for him to answer.
"Not yet, it has been stable in the east, west, north and south for the past few days, but this afternoon and evening suddenly spread out of these other places."
……
Everything was unexpected.
