Chapter 15: The Flames
The flames were raging, and the ashes that burned out flew down the flame seedlings into the night sky, mixed with the sparks, and danced around the bright white moon. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
A different kind of beauty emerges in front of everyone.
But no one has the heart to enjoy such a sight.
"Firefighting! Fire! ”
Such shouts rang out in the streets.
Inoue's shaking hand kept turning.
Pots and buckets filled with water one after another and poured them on the burning grocery store.
But, a drop in the bucket.
The flames did not abate in the slightest, on the contrary, they became more and more vigorous.
In order to reduce losses, people had to prepare to tear down the walls that connected the grocery stores to keep the flames from burning.
However, the two walls are stronger and heavier than people think.
"A few more!"
"Hurry up!"
"Don't let the fire spread!"
A middle-aged man who looked quite prestigious shouted loudly, and several young and strong men immediately ran over, but ......
Still useless.
Even if everyone gritted their teeth and used their strength to feed, the two walls seemed to be welded to the ground, not moving at all.
"Separate these two walls, let's tear down the walls of the room behind!"
The middle-aged man shouted.
After a moment's hesitation, the people finally complied.
Although destroying two intact houses is something they are not willing to do.
However, they knew better that if they didn't, the fire would spread throughout the neighborhood.
The neighborhood they live on.
"Get out of the way!"
Just as everyone had only taken two steps, a low shout came.
Then, there was a gust of wind.
The heat of the flames almost made people unable to open their eyes.
People subconsciously dodge left and right.
Bang!
There was a dull sound in their ears, and when they opened their eyes, the two impregnable walls had collapsed to the ground.
Looking at the isolated fire, the people cheered loudly and looked for Hercules who had torn down two walls.
It's a pity that the people around me are all familiar with each other, and none of them echo the standards of Hercules.
Only the middle-aged man was puzzled.
"It looks like someone rushed into the fire...... How can it be? ”
"It must be too hot, dazzling!"
The middle-aged man laughed self-deprecatingly.
……
The flames kept jumping, as if they were the tongue of the devil of hell, licking and eating anyone who entered it.
Qin Ran strolled through it.
[Evil Body] and [Secondary Elemental Damage Resistance] made him ignore these deadly flames for ordinary people, and in his eyes, these flames were just a breeze blowing on his face.
With his head down, Qin Ran worked hard to find the entrance to the secret room.
That's right, it's the Chamber of Secrets!
When he saw the wall that more than a dozen people couldn't tear down together, Qin Ran concluded that there was something else in this burning house.
If it weren't for some special rooms built in the house, the walls that look a little old would never be so strong.
And when helping those civilians kick the wall in, Qin Ran was even more affirmative.
Through the transmission of power, Qin Ran could clearly feel that those two walls were still quite deep underground.
Far beyond the average basement.
"Found it!"
A few seconds later, with the previous certainty, Qin Ran quickly found the passage to the underground.
A floor that was about to be burned through not only lost its only concealment function, but also showed the way for those who came after it.
It's just that this kind of guidance can only be 'seen' by people like Qin Ran.
And this is also the mistake of the 'arsonist'!
The other party is too confident in the flames!
Thought that in the fire, everything would disappear without a trace.
But the other party only ignored Qin Ran.
Bang!
With a kick flying to the point where it was still burning, Qin Ran jumped into the secret room.
The secret room in front of him has also been eroded by flames.
Even, so to speak, the ignition point is here.
The flames spread from the bottom up throughout the house.
Therefore, the fire above could not be extinguished.
In the flames, several charred corpses crisscrossed and fell there, and the flames had already made them lose their original faces.
The melted and burned fat connects their bodies.
Qin Ran glanced at it and muttered in a low voice.
"After killing people and destroying mouths, will they destroy corpses and destroy traces?"
The situation in front of you is really easy to judge, unless these people can't think about it and want to ignite the fire. Self. Burn. Otherwise, the fire should be extinguished at the moment of fire.
Even if you can't extinguish it, you can escape safely.
The entrance to the chamber was not suppressed by heavy objects, nor was there anything else that could hinder escape.
And all of them died here, there is only one explanation.
They were all dead before the fire broke out.
Then, the people who killed them set the fire.
"Is there any other way to communicate the Nights?"
Qin Ran guessed.
The current Qin Ran can be sure that there must be a night seed mixed with the previous bounty hunters and mercenaries, and this night seed should have mastered some kind of long-distance communication means! Otherwise, with his speed, the night seed mixed with bounty hunters and mercenaries would not be able to reach Burr City faster than him to report to the remaining night seeds.
As for the original attacker?
There is also such a possibility.
But the probability is very low, and it is basically negligible.
Because the original attackers were there to 'hinder' the Nights.
They may be the ones who will attack with the most ruthless means, but they will not kill some people and then destroy the corpses.
It's just too redundant.
With the methods of the original attackers, it should be more open.
Even, in an even more tragic way, it is right to intimidate the night seeds.
"Careless!"
"Sure enough, because of the recent good winds, did you let your guard down?"
"I knew the biggest feature of the night species, but I ignored it!"
Qin Ran sighed in his heart, and then warned himself again.
He doesn't make excuses for himself.
Negligence is negligence.
Even if the night seed took advantage of the psychological loophole, let him instinctively ignore it.
But being exploited by an adversary is in itself a lesson to remember.
Because, not every time, the other party's target is someone else.
Most likely, he's right!
Qin Ran lowered his head and glanced at the scorched corpses again.
He wants to let the other party's tragic situation go deep into his heart as a warning.
But a careful look at it made Qin Ran make another discovery.
That finger ......
Qin Ran looked at the straightened fingers of a charred corpse, and after quietly glancing at the flames next to him, he pretended to be unharmed and walked upward.
Sou!
Just when Qin Ran was in mid-air, the fiercely burning flames on the side suddenly paused, and then, it couldn't stop extending, turning into a flame whip with the thickness of a small arm, and it was drawn towards Qin Ran who was in mid-air, and the tip of the whip composed of flames stabbed Qin Ran's throat like a long sword.
This blow, the attackers have been waiting for a long time.
It's also nine out of ten.
Therefore, as soon as the attacker struck, he did it with all his strength, without any mercy.
However, such a full-force blow missed.
