Chapter 67 Explosion
“Bang!”
A violent explosion shook the entire body collector’s dormitory.
The special green flame of the demon-breaking mechanical bomb turned into a fire tornado and sprayed out in a direction from room 504. The terrifying annihilation energy turned several nearby rooms and the fences in the corridor to ashes in an instant.
The 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 psychic in hand.
In the darkness, he muttered: "What a pity, it would have been completely swallowed up if I had come later."
And there is no point in thinking about it now.
When Ji Xun heard the explosion, he did not panic, nor did he choose to evacuate immediately.
The situation outside is unknown, and there are too many uncertain factors in running out rashly.
What's more, the morgue was a perfect place for him to observe the escape route.
Ji Xun didn't feel any nervousness. When he heard the explosion, he quietly hooked a pull ring connected to the booby trap on the iron cabinet.
Then he poured a bottle of [Night Vision Potion] and a bottle of [Hearing Enhancement Potion] in succession.
Both bottles of potion are very expensive, but fortunately they are trophies, so I don’t feel too distressed about using them.
He injected another [awake potion] into his thigh to prevent himself from being knocked out in a short while.
Then he took out a card with a white armor pattern and activated it with the ice spell: "Resolve!"
Looking again, he had been wrapped in a set of tightly protected In the real frost knight armor.
This is the magic of equipment cards.
The armor is sealed in the card in a way similar to dimensionality reduction, but it is not flat.
As long as you are familiar with the structure of the equipment card in advance, you can activate it like magic and achieve almost a one-card transformation.
This kind of armor is too heavy and Ji Xun's current strength cannot be used in battle. It is perfect for saving lives 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 would guess that the person who got the medium was frightened and ran away.
Although the corpse collector is inconspicuous, he is still a supernumerary company of the "Golden Oak Security Company" after all. His identity as an old theist is not visible to the public, so he may not dare to stay longer.
Ji Xun was hiding in the morgue and had a chance of directly escaping this crisis.
But he didn't take any chances that the other party wouldn't come.
[Secret Cause Medium] This kind of thing is a key item for communicating with gods in rituals. I didn't find it last time, so I will definitely pay more attention to it this time.
Besides, it has exploded, and the psychic confirmed it is here.
There are only two places where the spirit medium's aura can be found, upstairs and in the morgue.
If the old-time believer had the slightest intention of giving up, he would come to the morgue to take a look.
As expected.
Not long after, there were gentle footsteps in the corridor.
Ji Xun lowered his heartbeat.
No outsiders will enter the morgue in the middle of the night. Even if they come in for work, they will hear the sound of the corpse cart first.
So the person who came could only be the guy who detonated the bomb just now.
The morgue is very quiet, and the auditory medicine allows Ji Xun to distinguish the subtle vibrations in the air.
He distinguished carefully and found the sound like leather shoes stepping on the floor, and guessed in his heart: "There is only one person?"
The thoughts came together.
Ji Xun thought of more than just escaping for his life.
He didn't want to throw away the last third of the mediums.
If possible, he also wants to kill this enemy. Ji Xun approached as he heard footsteps. The other party seemed to have noticed something and stopped cautiously.
Almost at the same time, Ji Xun pulled the detonating ring without hesitation.
In fact, it was not long after "Epidemic Doctor" Hessen arrived at the corpse collector's dormitory of Team 18.
The three people who had been observing the Yanbian Clinic from the tower on Sequoia Street also arrived quietly.
As soon as they arrived, they happened to see an explosion in 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.
While marveling at it, he murmured to himself: "I should have thought of it a long time ago. If those field agents discovered that there was a 'thing' in the Sequoia Street stronghold, they wouldn't have no information at all. Then the only one who came into contact with it The only ones who collect corpses are those who collect them."
But having said that, without seeing it with your own eyes, who would have thought that the "corpse cleaner" would actually do such a big thing?
He smiled and said with emotion: "Master, you can hide it from the sky."
Mushroom Head looked at the flames, but reported the bomb signal in one breath, and muttered: "Looking at the power and the color of the flames, it should be There are not many chambers of commerce that can obtain the 'TK2-type military mechanical magic bomb' produced by Haigs Military Factory. If you want to check it, you can go to the black market in Innocence City."
Assistant Awen didn't understand either: "Captain, does this mean that there are experts in this corpse collection team?"
"Yes."
Xie Guozhong nodded: "This is what I said before The 'third party' in this incident. The thing that the Silver Moon cultist was looking for was taken by a certain corpse collector here. And that guy guessed that someone would come to the door, so he set up such a touch trap. So the remnants of the old days exploded as soon as they were gone"
The assistants Mushroom Tou and Awen were also puzzled when they heard this, "How can a corpse collector be such a master?"
Xie Guozhong said: "Now it seems that the corpse collector is just a disguised identity. In addition, The purpose is to get the thing in the Silver Moon Sect's stronghold. After all, only the corpse collector and the field agents of Golden Oak can access the scene, and only by borrowing the identity of the corpse collector can they get the thing without anyone noticing. '. Tsk. It's been a long time since I encountered such an interesting case."
Mushroom Tou obviously didn't understand, looking like a curious student: "Ah, but captain, if there is such a 'corpse collector'. How do we know that the secret base of the Silver Moon Sect is on Redwood Street, and he happens to be a corpse collector in this team? We didn't know in advance. Could it be that Golden Oak also has his informants?"
"No, no. "No." The secret base was exposed and it was all directed by this guy inside.”
When the two assistants heard this, they were in disbelief: "Huh?"
Xie Guozhong said: "Our informant didn't reveal any information before, but Golden Oak suddenly launched a siege. In other words, It is very likely that the senior management of the security company also got the clue temporarily."
Awen also understood this and said: "Captain, you are saying that someone has provided accurate clues and is waiting for Golden Oak. Clear the stronghold. Then he waits to find that thing? "Yes. Only this possibility can explain everything." According to the news, two Silver Moon strongholds were also discovered in Xicheng and Nancheng. The timing of these two strongholds was very clever. Looking at the explosion now, it was the corpse collector inside who was buying time to share the pressure. , It’s just a way of doing it. Tsk, it’s really clever. With a level 2 strength at most, you dare to take the initiative of the Silver Moon Sect. I’m really getting more and more curious about the guy inside.” br>
The mushroom head tilted his head, as if he had discovered Hua Dian, "Captain. How do you know that he is at least level two?"
Xie Guozhong said: "Since that person used so many means to achieve his goal, it naturally means that he My own strength is not strong, so I can only use tricks. Moreover, I need to borrow the power of Golden Oak Security Company, and there is a high probability that I don’t have any special background.”
The mushroom head seemed to understand.
Awen turned her eyes and said: "But that triggered the explosion. The person must have escaped."
Xie Guozhong's eyes flashed brightly, and he shook his head and said: "Not necessarily . Ordinary people might just take advantage of it and run away, but I don’t think he would run away because of his behavior.”
Mushroom Head also analyzed: "Don't run? If it's just a bomb of this level, it may be able to kill the first-level spell card master. But that Silver Moon cultist is a second-level mysterious [Burial Forensic Doctor], and he is also proficient in the devil's forbidden art. It’s absolutely impossible to die.”
Awen obviously agreed with this analysis: “Yes. What else can we do if we don’t run?”
“I don’t understand either.”
Xie Guozhong narrowed his eyes slightly, shrugged, and said casually in a joking tone: "Maybe he wants to kill the people who are chasing him? Who knows?"
He turned and said: " Although we don't know why the guy took that 'thing', when you can get a glimpse of the whole plan, you can find that this guy has an almost pathological conceitedness, betting on his own life that he will never make a mistake. It is a pure gambler's mentality of using the smallest chips to gain the maximum. If any link goes wrong, he may fall short or even lose his life. Of course, judging from the outcome, his plan is worthy of this pride. So since that guy can guess that someone is coming to the door, he is sure to escape unscathed. You will know after reading it.”
That's what he said.
The second explosion sounded again.
This time, it’s underground!
Like an earthquake, the whole block trembled slightly.
Looking at the secondary explosion coming from the morgue, Xie Guozhong’s eyes twitched slightly, and he said in a strange tone: “Hey, it’s not really what I thought.”
PS. I am not very satisfied with the plot later on, so I deleted all the saved manuscripts and then rewrote them. There is not much progress in the plot today, so I will outline the details, sorry everyone.
