Chapter 1409 Gas Explosion (Huang Fengling was shot into a hedgehog!)


    The dazzling firelight illuminated the dark cave.


    ??The green evil **** let out an angry roar. It moved its thick legs and rushed towards Duanmuhuai. The vines on his body then unfolded, and every leaf and blooming petal let out a piercing scream—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 **** in front of him. The originally moist air was evaporated and became dry in the hot flames. The large green moss covering the wall immediately burned, shrouding the entire cave in a sea of ??fire.


    ??For this evil **** whose whole body is almost made of plants, the environment in front of him is obviously a hell-like existence. Its entire body was ignited, and the ruthless flames spread rapidly across its body. This made the Green God even more angry. Its body began to twist and split again, spinning and twisting like a snake, separating from the body swallowed by the flames. At the same time, it spread out again, forming an overwhelming net, heading towards Duanmu. Sophora japonica is covering it head-on!


    “Buzz————!”


    ??The wildly rotating chain sword tore through the large net of vines like the claws of a beast. Duanmu Huai roared out and rushed out, making a fist with his left hand, and rushed towards the Green God!


    ?Spores that can cause death erupt around the Green God. They can even corrode steel, causing all substances contaminated with it to rot and turn into debris covered with plants. However, the blazing flames on Duanmu Huai''s body ruthlessly swallowed up the spores as big as dust floating in the air. He rushed straight in front of the Green God, and blasted forward with his clenched left hand, like a thick iron rod. It was stuffed into the green god''s angry and open mouth like a stick.


    Immediately afterwards, the steel armor on Duanmu Huai''s left arm flipped and deformed, and suddenly sprayed out into the Green God''s body!


    The hot, shining flames turned into high-temperature torrents and poured into the green god''s body. The originally dark green, shining vines began to gradually collapse, and streams of fire light poured out from them. Immediately afterwards, violent explosions and flames bloomed in an instant.


    “Boom————!”


    On the ground, the mound covered with weeds was completely destroyed by the violent shock wave, and the shining fire shot into the sky, illuminating the dark night...


    For the people of Yoshen Town, this was a night of fear and uneasiness.


    The same is true for Renichi Tezuka.


    …………”


    ?After listening to the recording in his ear, Tezuka Renichi''s expression was gloomy and uncertain. He stared at Duanmu Huai in front of him with a complicated expression, and for a moment he didn''t know what to say.


    "This is the message and relics that Miss Takazuki Mio asked me to bring to her father."


    Duanmuhuai stretched out his hand and placed the necklace in front of Tezuka Renichi.


    … “What on earth did you do?”


    “I didn’t do anything.”


    Duanmuhuai shrugged his shoulders.


    "Just like I told you, we found Mio Takayuki, but at that time she had been tortured by those people until she breathed her last breath, so that''s all I could bring you."


    “So, why audio recording? Not video?!”


    "Her appearance is not suitable for video... Do you understand what I mean? I think she also hopes to retain the image in your memory."


    “So, what happened in the old district!?”


    ?Tezuka Renyi slapped the table hard. He stared at Duanmuhuai and gritted his teeth.


    “Starting in the middle of the night, violent explosions and earthquakes suddenly erupted in the old district... What the **** is going on!”


    ??The earthquake that suddenly broke out in the old district in the middle of the night yesterday naturally alarmed Renichi Tezuka, and he tried to send someone to check the situation. But after that, the continuous earthquakes and the roar of landslides made them afraid to act rashly. It wasn''t until dawn, when everything calmed down, that Tezuka Renichi went to check it out in person. The result - what he saw in front of him was shocking.


    ??On one side of the bridge connecting the new area and the old area, the entire old area has completely collapsed, the mountains next to it have completely collapsed, and the huge rocks rushing down have completely buried the entire old area. Now there are no houses at all, only large blocks of stone and soil piled together, like a huge tomb.


    ?However, facing Tezuka Renichi''s inquiry, Duanmuhuai just shrugged his shoulders and gave a calm answer.


    “Oh...it was probably a gas explosion.”


    “Are you kidding me?”


    Hearing this, Renichi Tezuka felt that his blood pressure had risen.


    “The old area has not been renovated at all, where did the gas come from!”


    “Maybe it’s from the fertilizer they piled underground? Who knows...”


    Duanmu Huai spread his hands and looked like "I don''t know anything if you ask me."


    “So, what about the residents there?”


    “Maybe he died in this disaster. It’s so pitiful...”


    Duanmu Huai sighed silently, and at this moment, the door of the office was suddenly pushed open, and Mianmu Zuotiao ran in holding up the white wooden knife in his hand.


    "Teacher, the blood on Satori''s sword can''t be washed away... What should I do...?"


    “…I’ll give you a new one later.”


    “Okay~~~~~”


    ?Hearing Duanmuhuai''s answer, Mianmu Zuotiao turned around and left happily, leaving Duanmuhuai and Tezuka Lianyi looking 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……”


    “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 understand the ins and outs?”


    "…………I see."


    Tezuka Renichi stared at Duanmuhuai for a moment again, and then lowered his head. Indeed, just like 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 conduct a survey there. 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 can be sure that the other party has definitely done something. Moreover, Tezuka Renichi has an intuition in his heart that what happened in the old district is definitely related to Duanmuhuai!


    From a rational point of view, this is simply impossible. The entire old district was blown up, and even most of the mountains 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.


    ??If he finds someone, he can''t blow up the entire old district!


    If nothing else, why?


    This does not 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 Renchi felt his head was swelling, 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 commissioned reward. There will be no problem."


    "No."


    For Duanmu Huai, the real reward has been received. Originally, the commission from the Yingyue Group was a smooth one, and he actually didn''t care whether there was any reward.


    “Then I’m leaving.”


    ? Duanmu Huai stood up, nodded to Tezuka Lian, and then walked out of the office. Tezuka Renichi stared at Duanmuhuai''s back, remained silent for a moment, and finally said nothing... He had a bad feeling that this man was much scarier than the underworld, so it was best... not to go. It''s better to provoke him.


    For now... let’s report to the team leader first.


    ? Duanmu Huai didn’t care what the 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 Duanmu Huai.


    【Destroy the Green God and obtain the Essence of the Old Days +1】


    【Additional mission completed: Destroy 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, seeing this, Duanmu Huai felt numb all over.


    ??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 ghost purpose.


    Forget about burning it.


    ?This group of idiots probably don’t even know what they want to call, 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 shadows. He has now decided to use the shadows 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 other hand, what is the random reward?


    ?The system did not prompt and Duanmu Huai did not receive it. Although he was curious, he did not 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 and took Mianmu Zuotiao with him, returning home along the same route.


    ?Perhaps because the fighting was too intense that night, 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 Ren hadn''t pretended not to see it, then...


    ?But I was right, I just killed a few rabbits, I guess that''s right.


    ?After sending Mianmu Zuotiao home, Duanmuhuai also went home to sleep. Shajiuye and the others hadn''t come back yet. He was the only one 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...


    Duanmu Huai was stunned for a moment, then turned around 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 Duanmuhuai. Those red eyes were calm and gentle, and her long snow-white hair spread like silk, draped over the woman''s bumpy body.


    “Ai Li?”


    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 Duanmuhuai''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 Shajiuye''s voice below, Duanmuhuai looked confused. He looked at Aili, then at Medea...


    What should he do now?
