Chapter 67: Explosion
"Bang!"
A violent explosion shook the entire dormitory.
The special green flame of the Demon Breaker Mechanical Bomb turned into a fire tornado and erupted directionally from Room 504. The terrifying annihilation energy turned the fences in several nearby rooms and corridors to ashes in an instant.
And this movement was so loud that even Ji Xun, who was in the underground morgue, suddenly opened his eyes: "Someone is coming!" ”
There is still about a third of the medium in his hand.
In the dark, he muttered: "It's a pity, if you come later, the problem will be completely devoured..."
And there's no point in thinking about it now.
Ji Xun heard the explosion, but he didn't panic, and he didn't choose to evacuate at the first time.
The situation outside is unclear, and there are too many uncertainties to rush out.
What's more, this morgue was an excellent place for him to observe the escape route for a long time.
Ji Xun didn't have any nervousness, listened to the explosion, and only quietly hooked a pull ring linked to the treacherous thunder on the iron cabinet.
Then he poured a bottle of [Night Vision Elixir] and a bottle of [Hearing Enhancement Elixir] in succession.
Both bottles of potions are very expensive, but fortunately, they are trophies, and they are not too distressing to use.
He put another [sobering potion] in his thigh, this to prevent himself from being blown unconscious.
Then he took out a card with a white armor pattern and activated it with ice mana: "Solution!" ”
At another glance, his entire body was wrapped in a set of tightly protected Frost Knight armor.
That's the magic of equipment cards.
The armor is sealed in the card in a way that resembles dimensionality reduction, but it's not flat.
As long as you are familiar with the structure of the equipment card in advance, you can activate it as if it were magic, so that it is almost a card disguise.
This kind of armor is too heavy, Ji Xun's current strength can't be used in battle, and it is perfect to use it to save his life right now.
After doing all this, he waited in the morgue with peace of mind.
Normally.
The explosion upstairs was so loud that anyone who came could guess that the person who got the medium fled in fright.
And although the corpse collector is inconspicuous, after all, it is still a supernumerary company of the "Golden Oak Security Company", and the identity of the Old God Cultist is not visible, so he may not dare to stay longer.
Ji Xun is hiding in the morgue, and there is a probability that he can directly avoid this crisis.
But he didn't report it at all, and he was lucky that the other party didn't come.
[Secret Cause Medium] This kind of thing is a key item to communicate with the gods' rituals, and I didn't find it last time, so I will definitely pay more attention to it this time.
What's more, it has exploded, and the spirit medium is confirmed to be here.
And there are two places where there is a medium, the upstairs and the morgue.
The old Christians, who had the slightest intention of not dying, would come to the morgue to take a look.
As expected.
It didn't take long for the sound of soft footsteps to be heard in the hallway.
Ji Xun lowered his heartbeat.
In the middle of the night, no outsiders will enter the morgue, and even if they come in because of work, they will hear the sound of pushing the corpse cart first.
So the only one who came could have been the guy who detonated the bomb just now.
The morgue was very quiet, and the auditory potion allowed Ji Xun to distinguish the subtle vibrations in the air.
He carefully discerned it, and found the sound of leather shoes stepping on the floor, and guessed in his heart: "Only one person?" ”
Thoughts together.
Ji Xun thought of more than just dodging and escaping.
He didn't want to lose the last third of the medium.
If it were possible, he would also like to take out this enemy.
Ji Xun walked in listening to the footsteps, and the other party seemed to have discovered something, so he stopped cautiously.
Almost at the same time, Ji Xun pulled the detonating pull ring without hesitation.
......
In fact, it was not long after the "epidemic doctor" Hesse came to the dormitory of Team 18.
The three people who had been observing the Yanbian clinic from the tower of Sequoia Street also quietly arrived.
As soon as they arrived, they happened to see the explosion of the corpse collector's dormitory.
Xie Guozhong's eyes reflected the strange fire that exploded in the corpse collector's dormitory, and he already understood everything.
He was amazed as he muttered to himself, "I should have thought of it a long time ago." If those field agents had discovered that there was 'something' in the Redwoods Street stronghold, they wouldn't have heard anything about it. Then the only people who came into contact with the corpses were the corpse collectors. ”
But having said that, who would have thought that the "corpse cleaner" would do such a big thing without seeing it with his own eyes?
He smiled and sighed: "Master... It's a secret. ”
The mushroom head looked at the flames, but he reported the signal of the bomb in one bite, and muttered: "Look at the power and flame color, it should be the 'TK2 Military Machinery Demon Breaking Bomb' produced by the Higers Military Factory." There aren't many chambers of commerce that have access to this stuff. If you want to look it up, you can go to the black market in Innocence City. ”
Assistant Ah Wen didn't understand: "Captain, this means that there are masters in this corpse collection team?" ”
"Hmm."
Xie Guozhong nodded: "This is the 'third party' in this incident I said before." What the Silvermoon cultist was looking for was taken by one of the corpse collectors. And the guy guessed that someone was going to come to the door, so he made such a touch trap. That's why the remnants of the old days blew up as soon as they were gone..."
The two assistants, Mushroom Head and Ah Wen, were also puzzled when they listened, "How can a corpse collector have such a master?" ”
Xie Guozhong said: "Now it seems that maybe the corpse collector is just a disguised identity. Its purpose is to do that thing in the Silver Moon Sect's stronghold. After all, only the corpse collector and Golden Oak's field agents had access to the scene. And by borrowing the identity of the corpse collector to be able to contact the scene, he can get the 'thing' unknowingly. Gee... It's been a long time since I've come across such an interesting case. ”
The mushroom head obviously didn't understand, and looked curious about the student: "Ah... But Captain, if there really is such a 'corpse collector'. Then how did he know that the secret stronghold of the Silver Moon Sect was on Redwood Street, and then happened to be a corpse collector in this team? We didn't know in advance, could it be that Golden Oak also had his informants? ”
"No, no, no."
Xie Guozhong made no secret of his admiration: "His news is not from the Golden Oak Tree. Now that the conclusion has been reached, you will find that the three secret strongholds of the Silver Moon Sect were exposed this time, and they were directed by this guy inside. ”
When the two assistants heard this, Qi Qi was unable to be confident: "Huh? ”
Xie Guozhong said: "None of our informants have revealed any information before, but Golden Oak suddenly launched an encirclement and suppression. In other words, it is very likely that the top management of the security company also got the clues temporarily. ”
Ah Wen also understood this, and said: "Captain, you mean that someone has provided accurate clues and is waiting for Golden Oak to clear the stronghold." And then he waited to find that thing? ”
"Yes. Only this possibility can explain everything. ”
Xie Guozhong nodded, and said, "And just got the latest news, there are also two Silver Moon strongholds in Xicheng and Nancheng that have been discovered. The timing of the discovery of these two strongholds is ingenious. A little later than the Redwoods neighborhood in the North Side. Looking at the explosion now, it was just a means for the corpse collector inside to buy time for himself to share the pressure, and by the way. Tsk, that's really clever... With the strength of the second order at most, he dared to beat the attention of the Silver Moon Sect, how conceited it was. I'm getting more and more curious about the guy inside. ”
The mushroom head tilted his head, as if he had spotted Hua Dian, "Captain." How do you know he's up to the second order? ”
Xie Guozhong said: "Since that person used so many means to achieve his goal, he naturally said that his own strength was not strong, and he could only use tricks. And it also needs to borrow the power of the Golden Oak Security Company, and there is a high probability that there is no special background. ”
The mushroom head doesn't seem to understand.
Ah Wen's eyes rolled and she also said, "But that triggered the explosion." The man must have fled. ”
Xie Guozhong's eyes flashed brightly, and he shook his head and said, "Not necessarily." Ordinary people may indeed take advantage of the chaos. But that guy's way of doing things... I don't think he's going to run. ”
The mushroom head also analyzed: "Don't run? If it's just this level of bomb, you might be able to kill a first-order spellmaster. But that Silver Moon Cultist is a second-order mystical [burial forensic doctor], and he is also proficient in that demon god forbidden art, so he definitely can't die. ”
Ah Wen apparently agrees with this analysis: "Yes. What can I do if I don't run? ”
"I don't understand it either."
Xie Guozhong's eyes narrowed slightly, shrugged his shoulders, and said casually in a joking tone: "Maybe you want to kill the people who are chasing you?" Who knows..."
He turned to say, "I don't know why that guy took that 'thing' though. But when you get a glimpse of the whole plan, you can see that this guy has an almost pathological conceit. Gambling with one's own life will never make a mistake, and the whole process is to gamble on the biggest gain with the smallest chips, a pure gambler's mentality. Anything that goes wrong could cost him a fortune or even his life. Of course, judging from the ending, his plan is also worthy of this conceit. So since that guy can guess that someone has come to the door, he is naturally sure that he can get out of the way... Read on and you'll find out. ”
But the voice has not fallen.
The second explosion was remembered.
This time, it's underground!
It was like an earthquake, and the whole neighborhood trembled slightly.
Looking at the secondary explosion coming from the morgue, the corners of Xie Guozhong's eyes twitched slightly, and he said in a strange tone: "Hey, it won't be what I thought, right..."
