Tssss!
The screeching of the tires on the ground was followed by a burnt rubber smell. Chief Pudder with a bandaged head and his assistant came down from the police cruiser.
Pudder looked serious and his eyes were filled with rage.
That's right, he hated boring days.
But if boring days could be exchanged for peace, he wouldn't mind. At most, he would grumble a little. He would probably be like those people who claimed to be bored, but were actually lying on the sofa happily.
Now?
There were a total of four explosions in the morning.
One of them happened in a crowded shopping mall.
"What is that bastard trying to do?
Provoke us? "
The assistant said fiercely after he walked through the panicking crowd.
The young assistant's eyes were scanning the surroundings, as if he was trying to find the culprit behind the series of explosions in the crowd.
In the textbooks, the culprit would return to the scene more than once.
"Provoke us?
You overestimate us, he isn't trying to provoke us.
And … "
"The knowledge in the books needs to be combined with practical applications. You don't just need to observe the people around you, you also need to ask your colleagues who arrived at the scene first in the shortest time possible, they might have unexpected clues."
Even in his rage, Pudder didn't forget to give his assistant some pointers.
The middle-aged chief officer wasn't stingy in teaching his young and righteous assistant some useful tricks.
"Yes, Chief."
The assistant nodded.
Pudder shook his head when he saw his assistant running to the side. Before he could finish his words, Kieran's eyes lit up.
"Still too young."
With such a sigh, Pudder looked at the broken window on the fourth floor of the shopping mall and quickly ran up to the fourth floor.
The officer outside the room saluted when he saw Pudder and briefly explained the situation.
"Chief, this should be the first crime scene.
Based on the traces at the scene, there should be two people here, one of them was thrown out and exploded, the other disappeared.
And the blood stains here, judging from the amount of blood, it would be hard for the person who was attacked to survive. "
"The one who was attacked and the one who was thrown out was the same person?"
Pudder glanced over the blood stains on the floor before looking at the decorations in the room.
"Judging from the blood stains, it's the same person.
But there's something strange … "
"The attacker should be a third person, but there's no evidence of his existence?"
Before the officer even finished, Pudder continued.
"Yes."
The policeman nodded with curiosity in his eyes.
"You can go ahead with your work."
Pudder didn't explain further and waved at the officer. After the officer left, Pudder said softly, "Damn it, it's those bastards again."
The disgust in his words was obvious.
But the search had to continue.
Even though Pudder knew the search wouldn't have much meaning after he got involved with those people, it was still the same.
"Sheriff! Chief! "
Just as Pudder was meticulously searching the place, the young assistant ran over.
"What happened?"
Pudder turned to his assistant.
"See for yourself."
The young assistant had a strange look on his face as he passed the video he copied from the monitor to Pudder.
The video was not long, and the main scene was less than a second. An animal carrying a large bag filled with all kinds of food flashed across the screen.
Pudder slowed down and magnified the image several times before he finally saw the animal with the big bag clearly.
"A husky?"
Pudder was stunned.
Didn't a husky only know how to demolish houses?
Since when did it learn to pack food?
How could a husky be so smart?
It didn't make sense!
The middle-aged chief officer watched the video over and over again in disbelief. After that, he looked up at his assistant.
"Anything else?"
Pudder asked while holding back the shock in his heart.
"And this."
The assistant took out the gemstone in the evidence bag.
"This is?"
Pudder frowned.
"This should be the money for the food!
It was placed on the table without the tablecloth, and the tablecloth was packed with all kinds of food by this … dog. "
"Since when did animals know how to pay for things?"
The assistant pointed at the bag in the video and said with a bitter smile.
"Of course, animals don't know, but when they become pets, they know."
Pudder said in a heavy tone.
"What are you saying?"
The assistant looked at Pudder.
"It might be related to the explosion case, find it at once!
"Mobilize the surveillance cameras around. Even if we can't find the Bomber, can't we find the husky?"
Pudder said.
"Understood."
The assistant and the officers around him quickly moved out.
…
17th Randletine Street.
When Goran woke up, he was already here.
Goran wasn't a stranger to this kind of place.
Even though he hadn't been here before, before he came to Alkender City, he did a detailed investigation of the place and even spent a lot of money to buy the blueprints and decorations of the place.
Therefore, a single glance was all it took for Goran to know where he was.
As for the figure in black sitting on the sofa?
Without even asking, Goran knew who the figure was!
Glutton Emperor, 2567!
The figure's back was facing the morning sun and the backlight obscured his face, as if he had merged with the crow feathers on his body.
Dark and deep.
There wasn't any terrifying aura from the figure, all it did was look at Goran calmly.
But the calmer the figure was, the more frightened Goran was.
It wasn't just Goran's experience telling him that the Glutton Emperor before him was scarier than he had imagined, it was also his abilities!
Goran's control over electrical appliances granted him a very sharp sense.
He could clearly feel what was hidden within the seemingly calm Glutton Emperor.
He could even pick up a faint sulphuric smell at the tip of his nose.
It sounded like the devil's groan at midnight!
Slaughter!
Merciless!
Despair!
Goran crawled up from the carpet but the sulphuric smell at the tip of his nose made his knees soften, causing him to fall back down.
This time, he couldn't get up at all. After a few tries, Goran gave up and crawled in front of Kieran's shoes.
Then …
The supervillain from another city spoke respectfully.
"Goran greets Lord 2567."
"I am willing to serve my lord."
"Please forgive me for what I have done."
"I was forced to, I couldn't help it."
Goran then poked his head out and kissed Kieran's boots.
Emma Eddie, who was standing at the side, couldn't help but twitch her mouth in disdain when she saw this scene. She instantly lost interest in watching and turned around to leave.
She had thought that she would see an arrogant and despotic villain.
She didn't expect him to be a coward.
No!
Not a coward!
A bully who bullied the weak and feared the strong!
Emma Eddie then closed the door with the comment in her heart.
The sound of the door closing didn't affect the situation in the room at all.
Bloodman and Freezer were still as calm as ever.
In their minds, Goran's reaction was the right reaction to meet Kieran.
Goran, on the other hand, was waiting for Kieran's reply in fear.
As for Kieran?
On his left middle finger that was hidden in his sleeve, the [Mesly Ring] was glimmering in an unusual way.
Controlling electrical devices in a small area was very convenient for a modern city like Alkender City. In fact, after Kieran guessed Goran's abilities, Goran's fate was sealed. Otherwise, Kieran wouldn't have asked Bloody Mary to bring him back.
A second of absent-mindedness later.
When Goran's eyes returned to normal, he went from crawling to kneeling on one knee, putting his right fist in front of his chest and addressing Kieran meticulously, "My lord."
Under the influence of [Mesly Ring], everyone's way of loyalty was different.
They would only pledge their loyalty to Kieran in the grandest way they could.
At the same time, they would serve Kieran with all their might, like a fanatic believer.
"My lord, according to the surveillance footage I left behind, someone is tracking Frost Wolf and Fire Raven, do you need me to do something?"
Goran didn't stand up and asked.
"Tracking Frost Wolf and Fire Raven?
Clean up all the traces. "
Kieran was stunned, he didn't know what happened but it didn't stop him from making the right choice.
"Yes, my lord."
Goran bowed and accepted the order. He walked to the wall at the side of the room and lifted his hand to touch the latch that was embedded in the wall. Faint electric sparks began to flicker.
Kieran then used the contract to contact Frost Wolf and Fire Raven.
Then …
On the sofa, Kieran's hand trembled.
Through the vision of the contract, he clearly saw Frost Wolf gobbling down a roasted chicken, skin and bones, while Fire Raven was attacking a fruit salad. Beside Frost Wolf and Fire Raven, there were also many food wrappers and remains scattered around them.
What happened?
What's with this strangely familiar scene?
And …
Did you guys rob the cafeteria?
Kieran's emotions were picked up by Frost Wolf and Fire Raven through the contract. Both of them who were feasting suddenly froze.
"We're exposed!
What should we do? "
Frost Wolf and Fire Raven exchanged gazes before Fire Raven took the initiative to explain.
"We bought it, not robbed it.
And … "
"We even brought food back for you!"
Fire Raven flapped its wings and Frost Wolf ran to the side, pulling out a big, well-wrapped cake.
Kieran used the vision of the contract to look at the three-layer cake and his face unconsciously showed a complicated expression.
He took in a deep breath.
"Come back soon."
Kieran said.
Leaning back on the sofa, Kieran's expression grew more complicated.
He knew Frost Wolf and Fire Raven were unknowingly influenced by him, but he didn't know whether it was good or bad.
However, there was one thing that Kieran was sure of.
After Frost Wolf and Fire Raven came back, he had to talk to them.
Before that?
Kieran looked at Goran, who came back and stood beside Bloodman.
"What's with that Harker?"
Kieran asked.
"Harker is my former collaborator. He came to me around a week ago and said he wanted to share a huge fortune with me — the empty Alkender City!
Without Mr. Ghost, Grudge Dragon, and Death Knell, Alkender City was an unguarded treasure vault to him, so he wanted to wreak havoc in the city.
Of course, it's just an excuse on the surface.
In the dark, he must have been sent by some important figure to test the waters in Alkender City.
To test my lord, whether you, Fist of Justice, Wine Barrel, and the others were injured in the battle with Grudge Dragon and Death Knell. "
Goran told him everything in detail.
"Do you know anything about the person who sent them?"
Kieran asked.
"I don't know much, but I'm sure of one thing: the person came from Printon City!"
Goran said.
"Printon City?"
Kieran squinted his eyes and showed an interested expression.
He wasn't a stranger to the city. According to Drexton, it was a destroyed city, a paradise for criminals. There was no order, mercy, or kindness in the city, it was filled with lies, murder, and hatred.
Of course, what concerned Kieran the most was that the city was similar to Alkender City, having superheroes and supervillains, but one day, all the superheroes in Printon City vanished into thin air. Until today, the extraordinary individuals who leaned towards justice would have their powers greatly weakened, whereas those who leaned towards evil would be buffed.
Because of that, Kieran had a fresh memory of the city.
"This is what Harker accidentally revealed in his drunken stupor."
"As for more?"
"I can't ask. Harker might be reckless, but most of the time, he is still vigilant, especially when Printon City is mentioned."
Kieran nodded slightly as he listened to Goran's description.
"Printon City, huh?
It's not time yet. "
Kieran thought for a while and shook his head.
Although he was more curious about the place, Kieran didn't forget his main mission, which was to fend off those supervillains who had ill intentions towards Alkender City within 12 weeks.
No matter how big the secret or how big the rewards were in Printon City, if he failed his main mission, he would have failed for good.
What use would it be to get more rewards?
Kieran would never lose the bigger picture because of a small gain.
Huu!
Kieran heaved a heavy breath.
Giving up a huge potential reward was not a good feeling for a stingy person.
The only fortunate thing was, guarding the place didn't come back empty-handed.
Kieran took out the spoils of war that Bloody Mary brought back.
[Name: Exploding Stone]
[Type: Wonder Item]
[Rarity: Rare]
[Attack: Strong]
[Defense: Powerful]
[Attribute: 1. Bomb; 2. Ammo Control]
[Effect: None]
[Prerequisite: None]
[Able to bring out of dungeon: Yes]
[Remark: A special bloodline that created a special ability.]
…
[Bomb: Hold the Exploding Stone in one hand and touch the target with the other. Able to plant a Lethal level bomb in the target's body (Requires a Constitution authentication no lower than D-) (Targets can't exceed 20)]
[Ammo Control: The target with the bomb will obey the owner of the Exploding Stone]
…
A brown stone the size of an egg appeared in Kieran's hand.
"Better than nothing."
Kieran commented on the stone when he saw the attributes.
The low authentication and number determined that [Exploding Stone] couldn't be used as an item in the main game, but Kieran wouldn't simply throw it away.
Right after Kieran put [Exploding Stone] into his backpack, the ground suddenly shook.
