Chapter 306
306 Powerful
The battle last night was not really intense for a four-sun realm Summoner, but it took a long time.
Whether it was the people who had turned into zombies or the surprise attack of the corpse demons ‘subordinates, none of them had caused Xia ping’ an any real harm.
After the main force of the judgement Army arrived, the zombified situation in Qingwei town was under control.
At dawn, everything calmed down.
The entire Qingwei town was filled with smoke. Large patches of charred zombie corpses were scattered all over the town. The burnt smell of meat and egg whites made people feel as if they were in a crematorium. It was extremely uncomfortable.
Besides those corpses, a lot of houses in the town had also been burned into ruins. At dawn, some houses were still burning; however, nobody cared about that anymore. The entire town was like the remains of a large-scale battle as it lost its prosperity and tranquility.
Some of the houses were burned to ruins because of various factors, and many were set on fire when the ruling Army entered the town to annihilate them. After making sure that no one was in the houses where the zombies gathered, they would throw a few fireballs and the whole house would burn.
The adjudicator’s method of dealing with the mutated corpse was simple and crude.
The people who survived the disaster sobbed softly and wailed. After a strict epidemic inspection, they temporarily left the town and were settled in other places in Shangjing.
Qingwei town and the two surrounding towns had been strictly sealed off and divided into an epidemic area for zombie poison. Only after strict epidemic prevention and disinfection procedures could the people of these towns come back.
This time, there were hundreds of thousands of people migrating.
Even the garrison troops had been mobilized.
As for Qingwei town, it was estimated that it would be bulldozed because too many people had been infected with the zombie virus in this town. The town was covered with the blood and brains of the infected people, as well as the corpses and meat. Those corpses and meat were also infectious. Now, all the animals such as cats, dogs and rats in this town had to be cleaned up. Otherwise, these animals might spread the zombie virus to other people and animals, causing a severe spread of the zombie virus.
The corpsedemon was the most dangerous biochemical attack.
The total number of casualties in Qingwei town exceeded 80000. Almost every corner and every house in the town was filled with corpses. Thus, razing the town and setting it on fire was the simplest and most effective epidemic prevention measure.
If the explosion at the pill factory was included, the number of casualties in Shangjing last night could have exceeded 150000.
In just one night, the atmosphere in Shangjing had completely changed.
……
When the first ray of sunlight shone on the tallest bell tower in Qingwei town, Xia Pingan stood in a small square below the bell tower. He could not help but sigh as he watched the adjudicators clean up the corpses on the square one by one.
Too many people had died.
If he and the iron-faced man hadn’t arrived in time last night and stopped the spread of the zombie poison, today’s situation might have been even worse.
Although he had made a great contribution, Xia ping ‘an couldn’t get excited. Looking at the corpses and the entire prosperous town being destroyed overnight, Xia ping’ an felt a little sad and helpless.
He had tried his best, and so had the Child of Fortune. However, there were some things that he could not control completely. These ordinary people were too weak in front of Summoners like the corpse demons. The corpse demons destroying a town was like ordinary people destroying a beehive.
Fortunately, water demon and poison demon had been discovered and killed in advance. Otherwise, the damage that the five demons of the bloody demon church would bring to Shangjing city would be incalculable. They might have really destroyed Shangjing city.
With a sound of ” boom! Boom! Boom! , a half-burned five-story building beside the square collapsed at this moment. In the flames, a 10-m high giant was revealed. With a push, the building collapsed.
The simplest way to flatten a town was to summon a few Giants.
Xia Pingan shook his head and was about to leave, but at this moment, he saw Lin Yi walking through the small square full of corpses, patrolling the town, and walking toward him.
Lin Yi’s face was unprecedentedly gloomy, as if he was hanging an iron block.
For such a big thing to happen in Shangjing, the first ones to take the blame were the adjudicators.
Lin Yi also saw Xia ping ‘an and walked toward him.
“My Lord!” Xia ping ‘an bowed to Lin Yi.
you did a good job last night. If you hadn’t arrived in time and blocked the intersection between the town and Shangjing, the chaos would have been even worse! No matter how gloomy Lin Yi’s face was, when he saw Xia ping ‘an, he couldn’t help but become gentler.
“I only did what I should have done!”
Xia Pingan had done a great job last night.
Moreover, Xia ping ‘an was also a member of the adjudicator Army. Although there was a zombified state in the town, the adjudicator Army’s handling of it was very timely. At least, the zombified state did not spread in Shangjing. This gave the adjudicator Army something to talk about in front of the Emperor and did not completely lose face.
The two mishaps in the capital last night had infuriated the Emperor, who had just returned to Shangjing. He had already given Lin Yi a death order to quickly eliminate the remnants of the bloody demon church at all costs.
Beitang Wangchuan had managed to escape last night. After the Emperor returned to the capital yesterday, all the power in Shangjing returned to the emperor’s hands. Therefore, if something happened, Beitang Wangchuan couldn’t be blamed. This was the bloody demon sect slapping the great Shang Emperor’s face.
If this had happened a day earlier, Beitang Wangchuan would probably have to bear the blame.
After praising Xia ping ‘an, Lin Yi asked directly, ” how did you know that something had happened in Qingwei town at the first moment? ”
“That person informed me!”
As soon as Xia ping ‘an finished speaking, Lin Yi raised his eyebrows and his eyes flickered, ” that person already knows the whereabouts of the corpse devil? ”
“Yes, he also knows the whereabouts of the dark demons!”
To Xia ping ‘an, since the dream demon was a loner and didn’t contact others, the dark Demon and corpse demon had no value in existence.
After going through such a big change last night, Xia Pingan also wanted to get rid of these two people as soon as possible. Of these two people, one was eyeing him covetously, while the other had a terrifying destructive power. It was best to get rid of them directly with the help of the adjudicator Army.
“What conditions does he have?”
“One million gold coins and ten rare realm pearls!”
“Alright!” Lin Yi nodded in agreement without thinking, ” I’ll get someone to send it to you later. Where are the two of them? ”
Xia Pingan revealed the two people’s hiding place and current identity.
Lin Yi moved his hand and summoned a green bird. He gently stroked the bird and then threw it up. The green bird soared into the sky in the blink of an eye and disappeared with a buzzing sound. It was as fast as lightning.
“I’ve already sent the dark shadow guards to kill the dark demons. Do you have anything to do now?” Lin Yi’s voice carried a trace of unconcealable cold killing intent, indicating that the commander of the adjudicating Army was already angry.
“I’m fine!” Xia Pingan said.
“If you have nothing to do, how about you come with me to meet the corpse devil?” Lin Yi asked directly.
“Alright!” Xia Pingan nodded.
“Let’s go, I’ll Take You There!” After saying that, Lin Yi grabbed Xia ping ‘an’s wrist. Then, Xia ping’ an felt his body become short and his feet became soft. The hard ground suddenly became like marshmallow and he sank in. He was directly brought under the ground by Lin Yi and began to move forward at a rapid speed.
‘F * ck, is this the earth escape technique?’
This feeling was hard to describe!
It was like taking a high-speed rail to travel underground at a very high speed. The rocks and soil under the ground seemed to have turned into clouds of unreal mist, which could be easily passed through. Xia Pingan could see the hidden underground rivers, ditches, tree roots, and walls that she had passed by. Under the effect of the earth travel skill, those things became hazy and unreal. She could also see the things on the ground, just like how she saw fish and stones in the water through the shaking water. The scenery on the ground would also flash rapidly in front of people’s eyes.
This earth escape technique was too magical.
In just a few minutes, Xia ping ‘an felt his body suddenly rise up. Lin Yi had already brought him out of the ground and arrived at a residential area in the West of Shangjing.
The ground under his feet became hard again, and everything in the material world became real again.
The courtyard of the residential building where the corpse demon lived was 10 m away in front of them.
When the two of them came out of the ground, the corpse devil was lying on the deck chairs with a few old people. They were basking in the sun downstairs and talking about what had happened in the capital last night.
The corpse devil was like an ordinary old man enjoying his retirement here.
Who would have thought that this old man would turn Qingwei town into a Cemetery last night?
At the sight of Lin Yi and Xia ping ‘an who suddenly drilled out of the ground, all the other old men were dumbfounded. Only the corpse demon changed his face at once as a wisp of immortal strength fluctuated from his body.
Lin Yi’s blade-like sharp eyes immediately stared at the corpse demon’s face, as if he wanted to cut the corpse demon into pieces.
The surrounding air seemed to have frozen at this moment.
One-hundredth of a second, not even one-hundredth of a second …
Xia ping ‘an saw the demonic corpse’s expression reveal a trace of despair and ferocity. He raised his hand and his body retreated, wanting to retreat.
Lin Yi’s movements were faster than the corpse Devil’s. He only stomped his foot once.
In an instant, Xia Pingan felt that the courtyard, the old man, and everything around him had disappeared. The corpse demon, Lin Yi, and himself were suddenly in a void.
There were three horizontal lines in the sky. The upper and lower horizontal lines were broken in the middle, while the middle of the middle horizontal line was connected. It was a kan hexagram representing water.
The three horizontal lines were as majestic as mountains, filling the entire space with endless power.
Lin Yi was standing on the three horizontal lines of the kan hexagram. His eyes were shining, his beard and hair were flying, and his whole body was shining like a god who had arrived.
The demonic corpse’s expression turned completely desperate at once. It roared as the skin on its body and face shattered, revealing another strong body and face. Its whole body began to emit colorful light.
Lin Yi gently pointed at the corpse devil.
The black water that filled the sky swept over and drowned the corpse demon.
The corpse devil was like an insignificant duckweed in the black water. Under the huge wave, it disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving nothing behind, not even a residue.
As the black water receded, the space disappeared. Xia Pingan blinked his eyes and realized that he was still standing in front of the few old men who were lying in the sun. Lin Yi was still standing beside him, and the shocked expression was still on the old men’s faces. It seemed that only half a second had passed. However, the demonic corpse that was lying on the recliner in the middle of the old men had disappeared like a bubble.
the adjudicating Army is handling a case. Everyone, don’t panic! Lin Yi said softly with a calm expression. Then, he pulled Xia ping ‘an and sank into the ground again, disappearing in front of the old men.
The corpse demon that had turned Shangjing upside down last night was gone just like that!
