Chapter 1409 Gas Explosion (Huang Fengling was shot into a hedgehog!)
The blinding firelight illuminated the dark cave.
The green evil god roared angrily, and it moved its sturdy legs and pounced on Duanmu Huai. The vines on its body spread out, and every leaf and every blooming petal screamed piercingly—and then was completely engulfed by the surging flames.
Duanmu Huai raised his left hand, and the flamethrower on his arm ruthlessly roasted the evil god in front of him. The originally humid air was evaporated in the hot flames and became dry. The large piece of green moss covering the wall burned directly, covering the entire cave in a sea of fire.
For this evil god whose body was almost made up of plants, the environment in front of him was obviously a hellish existence. Its whole body was ignited, and the ruthless flames spread rapidly on its body. This made the green god even more angry, and its body began to twist and split again, twisting and turning like a snake to separate from the body engulfed by the flames, and at the same time spreading again, forming an overwhelming net, covering Duanmu Huai head-on!
"Buzz————!"
The madly spinning chainsaw sword tore through the large net of vines like the claws of a beast. Duanmu Huai rushed out of it with a roar, clenched his left fist, and pounced on the Green God!
Spores that were enough to kill people exploded around the Green God. They could even corrode steel and turn all the materials that were contaminated with it into debris covered with plants. However, the blazing flames on Duanmu Huai's body ruthlessly devoured those dust-sized spores floating in the air. He rushed straight to the front of the Green God, clenched his left hand and blasted forward, like a thick iron rod into the Green God's angry mouth.
Immediately afterwards, the steel armor on Duanmu Huai's left arm flipped and deformed, and suddenly ejected into the Green God's body!
The hot, shining flames turned into a high-temperature torrent, pouring into the Green God's body. Those originally dark green, flashing vines began to gradually crack, and flames poured out from them. Then, violent explosions and flames burst out in an instant.
"Boom——————!"
On the ground, the mound covered with weeds was completely destroyed by the violent shock wave, and the shining flames shot up into the sky, illuminating the dark night...
For the people of Yangchen Town, this was a night of fear and anxiety.
For Tezuka Lianyi, the same is true.
"……………………"
After listening to the recording in his ear, Tezuka Lianyi's expression was uncertain. He stared at Duanmu Huai in front of him with a complicated expression, and didn't know what to say for a while.
"This is the message and relics that Miss Yingyue Mio asked me to bring to her father."
Duanmu Huai reached out and placed the necklace in front of Tezuka Lianyi.
"……………What did you do?"
"I didn't do anything."
Duanmu Huai shrugged his shoulders.
"Like I told you, we found Yingyue Mio, but she was tortured by those people and only had her last breath left, so this is all I can bring you."
"Then, why is it an audio recording? Instead of a video recording?!"
"Her appearance is not suitable for recording... Do you understand what I mean? I think she also hopes to keep the image in your memory in your heart."
"So, what happened in the old district!?"
Tezuka Lianyi slapped the table heavily, staring at Duanmu Huai, clenching his teeth.
"Since midnight, the old district suddenly erupted in violent explosions and earthquakes... What on earth is going on!"
The sudden earthquake in the old district at midnight yesterday naturally alarmed Tezuka Lianyi, and he tried to send someone to check the situation. But after that, the continuous earthquakes and the roar of landslides made them dare not act rashly. It was not until dawn that everything calmed down, and Tezuka Lianyi went to check it out in person. The result was that everything in front of him shocked him.
On one side of the bridge connecting the new district and the old district, the entire old district has completely collapsed, the mountains next to it have completely collapsed, and the boulders rushing down have completely buried the entire old district. Now there are no houses there at all, only large pieces of stones and soil piled together, like a huge tomb.
However, in the face of Tezuka Lianyi's question, Duanmu Huai just shrugged his shoulders and gave a calm answer.
"Oh... probably a gas explosion."
"What are you kidding!"
Hearing this, Tezuka Lianyi felt his blood pressure rise.
"The old district has not been renovated at all, where does the gas come from!"
"Maybe it's produced by the fertilizer they piled up underground? Who knows... ... "
Duanmu Huai spread his hands, looking like "I don't know anything even if you ask me."
"So, what about the residents in there?"
"Probably died in this disaster, so pitiful..."
Duanmu Huai sighed silently, and at this moment, the door of the office was suddenly pushed open, and then Nenmu Satori ran in with a white wooden sword in his hand.
"Teacher, the blood on the Satori sword can't be washed clean... What should I do...?"
"... I'll make you a new one later."
"Okay~~~~~"
Hearing Duanmu Huai's answer, Mianmu Satori turned around and left happily, leaving Duanmu Huai and Tezuka Ren'ichi staring at each other in silence.
"…………………………"
"…………………………"
"...Oh, don't think too much, she just killed a few hares."
"……………………"
"Anyway, haven't the problems been solved now? You don't have to think about compulsory expropriation anymore, right?"
"But that......"
"It was just a gas explosion."
Duanmuhuai interrupted Tezuka Renichi's inquiry again.
"Isn't it enough for you to just know? Or are you a geologist? Do you have to figure out the ins and outs?"
"…………………I see."
Tezuka Renichi stared at Duanmuhuai for a moment again, and then lowered his head. Indeed, just as Duanmu Huai said, their Yingyue Group is a gangster and they only want results. Now that the news about the eldest lady has been obtained, and the old area has been completely destroyed in the "gas explosion", all the residents inside have died. Even if they really kidnapped the eldest lady, they can still be considered responsible for their own actions. There is a price to pay for what you do.
Moreover, since the old areas have been completely destroyed, the Natural Eagle Moon Group no longer needs to consider the trouble of compulsory expropriation. Next, they only need to construct on that land - of course, the prerequisite is that they must carry out construction work there. A comprehensive geological survey.
But this is not something that a gangster should care about.
But...is this really good?
Tezuka Renichi was in a very uneasy mood. On the surface, everything seemed to have been resolved. No one protested, there was no need to collect more, and I also received the last message from the eldest lady. Although it was not a perfect ending, it was at least... But, why was I so unhappy?
He was certain that the other party had definitely done something. Moreover, Tezuka Renichi has an intuition in his heart that what happened in the old district is absolutely inseparable from Duanmuhuai!
From a rational point of view, this is simply impossible. The entire old district was blown up, and even more than half of the mountain next to it collapsed. This is not something that humans can do at all. Besides, Duanmu Huai is just a detective, and the commission Tezuka Renichi gave him was just to find the eldest lady.
It's impossible for him to find someone to blow up the entire old district!
If nothing else, why?
This doesn’t make sense logically!
And, how did he do it? How much explosives do you need to blow up a mountain?
…………Forget it, let’s not think about it.
Tezuka Renichi felt his head swell, and in the end, he decided not to think about it anymore.
"I will report to the team leader, and then I will send you the commission reward. There will be no problem."
"No."
For Duanmu Huai, the real reward has been received. Originally, the commission from the Yingyue Group was easy, and he didn't really care whether there was reward or not.
"Then I'm leaving."
Duanmuhuai stood up, nodded to Tezuka Lian, and then walked out of the office. Tezuka Renichi stared at Duanmuhuai's back, silent for a moment, and finally said nothing... He had a bad feeling, that this man was much scarier than the underworld, so it would be best... It's best not to provoke him.
For now... let's report to the team leader first.
Duanmuhuai didn't care what these gangsters were going to do next. After that, he returned to the car and turned on the system.
Soon, lines of system information appeared in front of Duanmuhuai.
[Destroy the Green God and obtain the essence of the past +1]
[Extra mission completed: Destruction of the Sussex Manuscript (Necronomicon translation/mistranslation)]
[Get additional random rewards]
Seeing this system information, Duanmu Huai felt really... speechless.
After killing the Green God, Duanmu Huai did get the black-covered book, and the system did remind him that it was a translation of the "Necronomicon". At that time, Duanmu Huai was still a little excited. After all, even if it wasn't the original version, it was still a translation!
However, the system then thoughtfully told Duanmu Huai again that the "Sussex Manuscript" was a fragmented translation of the Latin version, although it also contained references to the Old Ones and the Old Ones just like the "Necronomicon". There are introductions to the outer gods and rituals on how to summon them, etc., but the content... is all full of errors and omissions!
In other words, if you follow the above ritual, it will inevitably explode on the spot, and the probability of success is not even 1%!
To be honest, Duanmu Huai felt numb all over when he saw this.
This is like a martial arts secret book with deviated cultivation methods. Anyone who practices it will end up going crazy... This thing has a magical purpose.
Forget it.
These idiots probably don't even know what they want to summon, or they simply made the wrong call and went to the wrong god.
Duanmu Huai thought about the enhancement of the essence of the old days, and then added it to the shadow. He has now decided to use the shadow as the main fighting force of his old rulers. After consuming the essence of the past, the effective range of the shadow has also increased from the original fifty meters to one hundred meters... Well, it is still somewhat useful.
On the contrary, what is the random reward?
There was no prompt from the system, and Duanmu Huai didn't receive it either. Although he was curious, he didn't think much about it. Anyway, if the system wants to give it, it will definitely be given.
Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai stopped staying. The matter here has been solved, although to outsiders, this may be just an ordinary disaster. But the Cosmic Light Sect should understand what happened, and we will see if they will make any big moves next.
So Duanmuhuai drove back to his home along the same route as Mianmu Zuotiao.
Perhaps it was because the fighting was too intense that night, but Mianme Saotori just held his sword and dozed off on the way back. Duanmu Huai was also helpless about this. He also told Mianmu Zuotiao not to tell anyone about what happened that night, and the latter nodded.
But...a madman with a SAN value of 0, how do you know what she will think?
Just like before, if Tezuka Renyi hadn't pretended not to see it, then...
But I wasn't wrong. I just killed a few rabbits, so I guess that's right.
After sending Mianmu Zuotiao home, Duanmu Huai also went home to sleep. Shajiuye and the others hadn't come back yet, so they were alone in the whole house, feeling somewhat lonely.
Why………
Duanmuhuai didn't think much about it. When he returned to his room, he fell on the bed and fell asleep with his head covered.
Then, the night passed.
When Duanmuhuai opened his eyes again, it was already the morning of the next day. He yawned drowsily, then sat up, and then...
Um? What is this around?
Soft, fragrant, white...
Duanmuhuai was stunned for a moment, then turned to look, and then he saw a woman lying next to him. and……………
"Ah, MASTER."
The latter opened his eyes and smiled immediately when he saw Duanmu Huai. Those red eyes were calm and gentle, and her long snow-white hair was spread out like silk, draped over the woman's bumpy body.
"Ellie?"
That's right, the person who appeared in front of Duanmu Huai was none other than Irisviel!
Not only that…
"And me, MASTER."
At this moment, a pair of snow-white arms stretched out from behind and hugged Duanmu Huai's neck. He turned around and saw a cute and charming purple-haired girl hugging him and looking at him with a smile.
"Medea?"
Seeing this, Duanmu Huai felt numb all over.
Good guy, did the system send them here? Is this a bonus?
However, just as Duanmuhuai came back to his senses, he heard the sound of the door opening from below, followed by Shajiuye's voice.
"Ah, we are back, brother, are you there?"
"……………………"
Listening to Sha Jiuye's voice below, Duanmu Huai looked confused. He looked at Aili, then at Medea...
What should he do now?
