The Da Hua City's central commercial pedestrian plaza was as silent as a ruin. The truck had been parked there for nearly three hours. During this time, the Black Pharaoh had never left the truck, and the strange and inexplicable manufacturing sounds were constantly coming from the back of the truck.
The Secret Service Unit was on standby nearby, ready to launch an ambush at any moment but they suddenly received the order from the headquarters to retreat.
Yang Youyuan and the others did not understand why there was such a change, but this was the decision of the higher-ups, so they could only withdraw with doubts. Even the drones hovering in the sky were withdrawn, leaving only some monitoring equipment around the truck.
Most of the people at the command central did not know the reason behind this sudden change, they only knew that Tong Ye was now at the helm.
The news of the incident was temporarily blocked but some of the core members of the Spell Department already knew about it.
In the meeting room of the Spell Department, Xiao Xu, Deng Ximei, Lou Xiaoning, Chen Jiahwa and the rest fell silent after watching the surveillance footage.
They had been busy summoning the crow at the lab so they had no idea something like this had happened at the same time.
The higher-ups at the headquarters had been killed and then …
The crow said it would deal with the Black Pharaoh but what was it planning to do?
Tong Ye said the crow's words sounded like it was bidding farewell, that was how they felt as well.
"So, we can only watch from the sidelines …" Uncle Dan sighed. But this was something that was beyond the realm of mortals, there was nothing they could do to help.
"Hey, Ximei, Xiao Xu, what do you think?" Lou Xiaoning sat in the wheelchair but she still did not want to watch. "This doesn't feel right."
This murder case appeared to be the last thing Crow did before he left. He used this method to quickly achieve his wish. Without anesthesia or hemostasis, he used a scalpel to cut off the tumor and create a new Phecda to deal with the more chaotic era that was to come.
"Ah Jun's body has been buried. The real body, Ka and Baneng have reunited at the tomb. He has greater power and a more complete will. In other words, the crow is Gu Jun, the current Gu Jun. Otherwise, I don't think Tong Ye would have survived. "
Hearing Xiao Xu's words, Wang Ruoxiang and Cai Zixuan, who were very familiar with Gu Jun, nodded slightly.
But that was not the Gu Jun of the past. The Gu Jun of the past might really not exist anymore …
"The current Gu Jun is an existence on another level, one that is beyond my understanding." Xiao Xu continued, "Whether it's the main body, Ka or Ba, it's just a way for that existence to appear in this world. What happens next, I can't find the algorithm. "
"We might lose Gu Jun again." Deng Ximei said quietly, like a thorn of ice piercing into everyone's heart.
Even she made such a judgment, and they also had such a bad premonition …
"Kid, what do you think?" Lou Xiaoning asked Chen Jiahwa, a little annoyed. "Here, you're the only believer of the crow."
"I …" Chen Jiahwa touched the crow mark on his right wrist, frowning. "Ever since the appearance of the Black Pharaoh, I can't feel the mark's existence anymore. It's not like before when I would feel a slight warmth, and I don't feel like I could grow wings on my back … I'm wondering if it's because the crow has stored up all its power to fight against the Black Pharaoh."
This might be the answer.
The weather in Da Hua City also started to change. The scorching noon sun was slowly covered by dark clouds, and the sky darkened.
After another half an hour, suddenly, they saw the plague doctor's figure appear from the corner of the street, walking towards the truck.
Everyone's hearts clenched. Crow's footsteps were neither fast nor slow, both hands covered by the black leather robe, and the sharp beak mask exuded a sinister coldness.
Just as Crow was about ten meters away from the back door of the truck, the canvas covering the back door was pulled away, revealing the interior of the truck. This was also captured by the surveillance cameras. The metal equipment on the truck glowed with a strange light. No matter how strange and crude it looked, it was still a machine, and the gears and gears were operating in a unique way.
The glass container installed in the middle of the machine had an incomprehensible chemical reaction.
How could ordinary glass contain nuclear material? This was beyond the current scientific framework that they knew of. But that was not an ordinary nuclear bomb. An existence like Nyarlathotep had many ways to do it, and even a speck of dust could be a nuclear bomb.
The Black Pharaoh stood by the door of the truck, looking out, and said with a smile, "Gu Jun, you're here."
Crow looked into the carriage, and stopped in his tracks.
"Didn't I remind you to be careful?" The Black Pharaoh spoke again. Its playful tone was provocative, as well as its unique sense of danger, like an undercurrent that was about to devour the earth. "If you have forgotten, then let me remind you again. I like chaos, and this city will soon be destroyed."
"I don't like it," Crow said.
Before he finished his sentence, the shadow cast by the crows suddenly swept up, and countless black crow feathers rushed out, whizzing along with the wind, instantly enveloping the entire truck. However, in the midst of this flood of black feathers, there was still a crack …
At the back of the truck, a pair of large, dark-skinned hands reached out from the inside, and the crow's feathers did not cover the Black Pharaoh's smiling face.
Suddenly, the flood of black feathers that was originally impenetrable in other places also began to crack, obviously suffering from a huge impact.
The surveillance footage became blurry, but it wasn't just a matter of the signal being affected. The footage changed from time to time into another scene that no one knew where it came from. The surrounding skyscrapers in the city center had been reduced to ruins, the ground was broken, and the sky was also broken …
The space around the truck appeared to have been warped, and it was rapidly spreading across the entire city.
The shocked reports from the Da Hwa's guards were sent to the command central. Ripples appeared everywhere, a force was tearing this place apart.
The cars on the road stopped, the traffic was paralyzed, the passersby on the streets were panicking, everything was shaking unsteadily.
Inside the Spell Department's conference room, everyone could still see from the changing images that the crow's black feathers were still wrapping around the truck.
Their hearts almost stopped. Deng Ximei said blankly, "Crow is going to detonate the nuclear bomb, but … it's going to bear the brunt of it."
