Duan Tianhe was stunned.
Could Jiang He have run into the Sky Demon Cultists?
According to Pudgy Jiang's information, there had been an explosion in the mountains just now … but if that really happened, would Jiang He still be able to blacklist him?
Yes!
His movement technique was extremely fast, so he might have escaped!
At that thought, Duan Tianhe quickly asked, "Jiang He, have you fought the Sky Demon Cult?"
"Yes."
Jiang He did not deny it and told the truth. "It was a long night and I couldn't sleep. I was about to get some fertilizer for my garden, but I ran into two Sky Demon Cultists … and they lured the other Sky Demon Cultists and the wolves here."
Breathing a long sigh, Duan Tianhe finally felt relieved and smiled. "It's more or less what I expected. It's good that you're fine, and you don't have to worry about the Sky Demon Cultists and the wolf pack. They wouldn't be able to hurt you with your form, and I've already laid out an inescapable trap — they would surely die if they dare attack Lingzhou City!"
Even through the phone, Jiang He could feel Duan Tianhe's overwhelming confidence.
But …
Musing to himself for seconds, Jiang He then said, "You're wrong, Chief Duan. The Sky Demon Cultists and the wolf pack would not attack Lingzhou City."
"That's true!"
"The people of the Sky Demon Cult are very cautious. Now that their plans have been exposed by you, they definitely won't attack recklessly. Still, it doesn't matter. Once the sun rises, I'll gather the experts and kill our way into the mountain to exterminate the Sky Demon Cult disciples."
"This …"
"There's no need for that, right?"
Jiang He circled around the mountaintop.
The wolves on the hilltop were all dead.
The Sky Demon Cultists were also killed by him.
At the foot of the mountain, more than half of them had been killed by the dozen pea bombs. Of course, there were also a dozen wolf demons who were lucky enough to only be seriously injured. At this time, they had already escaped with their injured bodies.
As for the Sky Demon Cultists …
With his night vision, Jiang He could vaguely see their broken bodies lying amidst the brambles.
"Chief Duan, I've killed all the Sky Demon Cultists, but a dozen of the hundred-odd wolves managed to escape. Why don't you bring some men to encircle them? Also, help me transport these wolf demon corpses out of here. "
"…"
"Eh?"
"Director Duan?"
"Chief Duan, are you listening?"
"Director Duan?"
Jiang He shouted a few times, but there was no response at all. He couldn't help cursing and hanging up. What the hell? Did he just run out of breath while talking?
Putting away his phone, Jiang He rubbed his temples, a little worried. "I've got four rank-six Feral corpses, and two of them were further away from the center of the explosion and were only medium rare. That is why I have enough rank-six Feral flesh and ten liters of rank-six Feral blood, but where am I supposed to find rank-seven Feral flesh?"
…
Changliushui scenic area.
As if struck by lightning, Duan Tianhe stood there stupefied.
He did not even realize that the phone he had been holding on his ear had fallen to the ground. Pudgy Jiang was the closest to him, which was why he could hear every word Jiang He said from the other side of the phone.
His round face looked as if he had seen a ghost.
Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit!
"Old Duan, Old Duan, did I hear wrongly?"
"Did Jiang He take care of the wolves and the Sky Demon Cultists?"
"…"
Duan Tianhe stared straight at Pudgy Jiang and muttered, "Into the mountain!"
In the next split second, he came to his senses and roared, "Into the mountain! We'll know if it's real once we enter the mountain!"
Hence.
The group hefted Bamlet, six-barreled Vulcan cannons, rocket launchers, and many other military supplies as they marched majestically into the mountain.
They were all martial artists, Extraordinary Awakened ones, and their physiques far surpassed that of ordinary people. A burly Divine Power Warrior carried a six-barreled Vulcan Cannon in his left hand and a Bamlet heavy sniper rifle on his right shoulder. He ran with large strides, his speed even faster than Usain Bolt on the mountain road.
Be that as it may, it still took them over twenty minutes to reach the thirty-kilometer mountain path.
"Over there!"
Someone cried out in surprise and inhaled sharply in the dark —
"Gasp!"
"That mountain … why is it half shorter? Even the wind turbines were blown up!"
It was one of Pudgy Jiang's subordinates who had awakened a superpower similar to 'all-seeing eyes'. Of course, it was an exaggeration, but his vision was at least ten times that of a normal human's, and not even a rank-seven grandmaster like Duan Tianhe could match his vision.
That was when Jiang He saw Duan Tianhe and the others.
Still, he had not eaten enough carrots, which was why he could only see the silhouettes of a group of people.
It was only when they got closer that he managed to identify them.
Whoosh!
Right then, Duan Tianhe was darting up the mountain at an astonishing speed. Jiang He's eyes tightened at that, and he muttered, "Is that the power of a grandmaster? His speed … is not that different from my Blind Princess's Eight Practices at full power! "
The mountains in Xibei were not tall, especially this chain of hills. Each of them was several hundred meters tall and not too steep, and Duan Tianhe soon reached the top.
He landed on the edge of the peak, and then …
He was dumbfounded.
Behind him, Pudgy Jiang was darting up as well, and soon, a group of Western Xia's Martial Arts Department (MAD) reinforcements all reached the peak.
Looking at the ground littered with Feral wolf corpses and the flattened mountaintop, Pudgy Jiang's beady eyes bulged and he could not help exclaiming, "What the hell? How … how did it blow up?"
Being an expert in weapons and ammunition, he could not help walking a lap around the ground, but he could not tell what kind of bomb could cause such destruction. Then, he frowned as he examined several wolf corpses. "It looks like a fuel-air bomb. These Feral wolves were instantly struck by the tremendous impact and searing heat, which is why many of their corpses are charred."
"But fuel-air bombs last a long time. It was less than an hour from the time I heard the explosion until now …"
The fuel-air bomb was a fuel-air bomb, and its instantaneous explosion would generate intense heat that incinerates everything. A person would not be able to put out even if they came in contact with it, and if it exploded on a mountain like this, it would burn for hours. And yet, there were no signs of burning at the scene.
He walked another lap around the mountaintop before his gaze eventually fell on Jiang He, and he exclaimed in surprise, "You're Jiang He, aren't you? Did you detonate the bomb? "
"You know me?"
Jiang He studied Pudgy Jiang and smiled. "You're quite agile, Pudgy. Yes, I did detonate the bomb and blow up the Feral wolves."
Pudgy Jiang appeared puzzled and asked, "How did you lure the Feral wolves up the mountain to detonate the bomb? A bomb of such power would definitely need a propellant launcher. "
"A propellant launcher?"
"What's that?"
Jiang He shook his head. He knew nothing about bombs, and all he knew were hand grenades, landmines, and nuclear bombs. "I didn't lure the wolves," he explained. "I was just standing here when the wolves surrounded me. Thinking that it would be troublesome and time-consuming to kill them one by one, I simply threw a few bombs beneath my feet."
Pow!
"They're all blown up."
"…"
Pudgy Jiang glanced at where Jiang He was pointing, his small eyes tightening abruptly and he could not help exclaiming, "That's impossible! If my hunch is right, this must be the epicenter of the explosion, and from the looks of the blast and the level of destruction, even rank-seven grandmasters would not be able to survive!"
