Inside the Roc King Auction House …
"… As we all know, there are many kinds of Realm Beads that summon giants, and the Realm Bead in our auction house is one of them. The biggest characteristic of this Realm Bead is that it won't die even if the fusion fails. After the fusion succeeds, it can summon giants and obtain a boost of divine power of more than 30 points. The starting price of this Realm Bead is 25000 gold coins, and each increment must not be less than 500 gold coins. The bidding begins now …"
As soon as the beautiful auctioneer finished speaking, people in the private rooms of the auction house began to bid. In a short period of time, the starting price of the Realm Bead of 25000 gold coins was pushed to 30000 gold coins.
Xia Pingan held a wine glass in his hand and narrowed his eyes as he looked at the projection photo of the Realm Bead on the auction stage below. In the projection photo of the Realm Bead, Xia Pingan saw the words "Yu The Great Subdued Giants" in Xiaozhuan on the Realm Bead …
Xia Pingan's eyes were fixed on the projection on the auction stage, and the scene in his consciousness was the scene of the Dark Demon and the Corpse Demon meeting at the train station.
The Corpse Demon had finally appeared.
Xia Pingan was somewhat excited. As long as the Corpse Demon appeared in front of the Child of Fortune, it would be impossible for the Corpse Demon to escape.
Four of the five demons of the Blood Demon Church were now exposed.
Only the Dream Demon was left.
Just as the Dark Demon and the Corpse Demon were talking about the Dream Demon at the train station, Xia Pingan saw a huge orange fireball soaring in the night sky to the north of Shang Jing City.
Only a huge explosion would cause such a commotion.
There seemed to be an ammunition factory of the Shang Kingdom to the north of Shang Jing City. The high explosives that the Shang Kingdom was preparing to produce were produced in that factory.
The Dream Demon did it.
The Corpse Demon would also make a move tonight.
In the private room, Xia Pingan immediately stood up.
"37500 gold coins … The VIP in private room 36 has bid 37500 gold coins. Are there any higher bids …"
On the auction stage, as soon as the beautiful auctioneer finished speaking, Xia Pingan felt the ground beneath his feet tremble faintly.
"40000 gold coins..." Xia Pingan asked the merchant in the room to bid. Without waiting for the final confirmation of the beautiful auctioneer, Xia Pingan finished his glass of wine and stood up at once. He then opened the door and walked out of the private room.
40000 gold coins was not a small amount. Everyone who came here to bid for the Realm Bead had a balance in mind. Although the competition for the Realm Bead tonight was a bit fierce, the price was already much higher than the usual price of the Giant Realm Bead.
This was also the highest price Xia Pingan could offer for the Realm Pearl.
Xia Pingan was not the only one who felt the tremor. The entire King Peng Auction House felt it. There was a slight commotion in the auction house.
Seeing Xia Pingan walk out of the private room, a staff member of the auction house immediately walked up with a smile and explained to Xia Pingan, "Sir, please rest assured. Everything is normal at the King Peng Auction House. The auction will be held as usual. We have already sent someone to investigate the cause of the tremor that came from underground. Something seems to have happened in the north of Shang Jing City …"
Perhaps to the auction house, as long as the auction house was fine, it was not a big deal. However, that was not the case for Xia Pingan.
After these days of peace, Shang Jing City was going to be chaotic again tonight. Who knew how many people would die?
Under such circumstances, as the inspector, Xia Pingan was no longer in the mood to continue staying at the auction house.
He had to do something.
The door of the room next to him opened and the iron-masked man walked out. He looked at Xia Pingan with a puzzled gaze. He also felt that something seemed to have happened in Shang Jing City.
"The payment for the Realm Pearl that I bid for will be settled later. I have something to do now, so I have to leave first!"
After Xia Pingan finished speaking, he ignored the staff member of the auction house and strode out of the auction house. The iron-masked man followed without saying a word.
"What's wrong?" the iron-masked man asked.
"The Blood Demon Church …" Xia Pingan said briefly.
After walking out of the auction house, Xia Pingan saw that many people in the square and night market outside the auction house had stopped and raised their heads to look at the night sky in the north of Shang Jing City. Their faces were filled with surprise and bewilderment as they discussed animatedly.
The orange-red fireball in the north of Shang Jing City expanded and rose, turning into a huge mushroom cloud and raging flames. It had already soared thousands of meters into the night sky, illuminating the night sky in the north of Shang Jing City. Behind the flames, billowing black smoke was like the black shadow of a demon that was rising from the ground bit by bit, blocking the clouds and the moon.
In this case, even an idiot would know that something had happened, and it was a big deal.
Xia Pingan took a look with his remote vision ability and saw that the ammunition factory in the north of Shang Jing City dozens of miles away had become a huge crater. The violent explosion had razed the ammunition factory to the ground in a split second. All the houses and buildings within two kilometers of the ammunition factory were affected and were collapsing and burning like hell.
The huge explosion had scattered many shells and ammunition stored in the warehouse of the ammunition factory everywhere. The furthest ones were scattered over thousands of meters away. Those shells and ammunition exploded one after another. The tragedy was indescribable. The casualties and property losses were inestimable …
Xia Pingan only raised his head and took a few glances. After stopping for a short while, his face slightly changed. He waved his hand and summoned a fine horse that was flashing red light. He mounted the horse and shook the reins. "Jia …" The fine horse gave a long neigh and galloped wildly in the night market of Tianyuan Bridge.
Because Xia Pingan already knew where Shi Mo was causing trouble.
Without any hesitation, the iron-masked man also summoned a fine horse and galloped wildly in the night market of Tianyuan Bridge with Xia Pingan.
In the downtown area of Shang Jing City, except for carriages, no one was allowed to gallop wildly on a horse.
Seeing the two galloping mounts, the pedestrians and carriages in the night market all gave way to them one after another.
A squad of the Judgement Army on duty at the night market of the Tianyuan Bridge had just seen the situation in the north of Shangjing City and was still bewildered. In the blink of an eye, they saw someone galloping towards them on horseback. The captain of the Judgement Army squad immediately rushed to the road and cast a spell to intercept the two people galloping towards them, stopping them in their tracks.
Xia Pingan immediately pulled the reins on the horse. The galloping horse's two feet left the ground and almost stood up.
"I am Xia Pingan, the inspector of Donggang …" Xia Pingan directly took out his inspector token and loudly ordered the squad of Judgement Army, "Immediately inform the Judgement Army that a large-scale corpse mutation has occurred in Qingwei Town. In order to prevent the corpse poison from spreading, the Judgement Army should immediately dispatch troops to intercept …"
Xia Pingan's name was like thunder to these members of the Judgement Army these days.
Seeing Xia Pingan take out his inspector token and say that "a large-scale corpse mutation has occurred in Qingwei Town", the expression of the squad leader of the Judgement Army who intercepted Xia Pingan instantly changed.
Qingwei Town was a town in the suburbs of Shang Jing City. It had a population of more than 100,000 and was well-connected. There were many towns around it that also led to the downtown area. Once a large-scale corpse mutation occurred in Qingwei Town and spread out, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The squad leader of the Judgement Army quickly stepped aside and allowed Xia Pingan to rush out on his horse. Then, the squad leader immediately notified the Judgement Army.
Xia Pingan and the iron masked man rode their horses and quickly rushed out of the Tianyuan Bridge Night Market. At this moment, the streets outside were sparsely populated. There were almost no pedestrians left. The two of them rode their horses and ran wildly on the streets.
Xia Pingan directly rushed in the direction of Qingwei Town. The two horses galloped like thunder and galloped like the wind.
"How did you know that something happened in Qingwei Town?" The iron masked man rode on his horse and turned his head to ask Xia Pingan. He was also surprised. Just now, he and Xia Pingan were both at the Roc King Auction House. How did Xia Pingan know that there was a large-scale corpse mutation in Qingwei Town?
"An expert sent me the news …" Xia Pingan replied.
Was Child of Fortune considered an expert? In Xia Pingan's eyes, of course he was. There was no doubt about it, so Xia Pingan felt that he was telling the truth.
However, when the iron masked man heard this, he had a different feeling. He was right beside Xia Pingan, but he didn't know who sent the news to Xia Pingan. The expert that Xia Pingan mentioned had a cultivation level that was at least above his. Could it be that there was an Eight or Nine Sun Realm expert behind Xia Pingan?
This made the iron masked man's heart tremble slightly. He felt that he had underestimated Xia Pingan.
Xia Pingan and the iron masked man rushed to Qingwei Town as fast as they could. When the two of them arrived, Qingwei Town was filled with screams. People infected by corpse poison were chasing normal people everywhere. Some of the people who had mutated had already left the town and were looking for targets outside. The two towns around Qingwei Town had already been affected and were starting to riot.
There were no troops or the Judgement Army stationed around Qingwei Town. When the riot happened, they could only send carvers from other places to provide support. Xia Pingan and the iron masked man were the first to arrive.
Seeing the two of them rush over, seven or eight zombies that had already mutated rushed towards Xia Pingan and the iron masked man with red eyes and drooling mouthfuls …
Looking at the zombies' clothes, they were all residents of the town. One of them was even a policeman. The zombies' mouths were badly mutilated. They had completely lost their minds and turned into bloodthirsty beasts.
Without waiting for Xia Pingan to take action, the iron masked man waved his hand and a fire snake flew out. The fire snake passed through the bodies of the seven or eight zombies that rushed over and instantly turned them into ashes.
The fire of the fire snake was like a candle lit in the dark. It immediately attracted more zombies.
"I'll guard here. You go and clear out the zombies that have escaped to the nearby towns …" Xia Pingan said directly to the iron masked man.
The place where the two of them were at was the main traffic intersection between Qingwei Town and Shang Jing. The zombies in the town were spreading in all directions. As long as they guarded this place, they could stop the zombies from spreading and prevent the mutated zombies from spreading.
The iron masked man did not say anything and disappeared in a flash.
Seeing the large group of red-eyed zombies rushing over, Xia Pingan cursed silently. With a wave of his hand, he summoned a hundred elite slave soldiers. The elite slave soldiers formed a battle formation and blocked the intersection.
An intense battle instantly began …
