Chapter 404 Flames

The flames were raging, and the burnt ashes flew along the flames to the night sky, mixed with sparks, and entangled and danced around the bright white moon.

A different kind of beauty emerged in front of everyone.

But no one has the heart to appreciate such a scene.

"Fire! Fire!"

Such shouts sounded in the street.

Inoue's hand crank kept turning.

Pots and barrels were filled with clean water one after another, and they were poured into the burning grocery store.

However, a drop in the bucket.

The flame did not weaken at all, on the contrary it became more and more vigorous.

In order to reduce losses, people had to prepare to tear down the walls connecting the two sides of the grocery store to isolate the flames from burning.

However, the two walls are stronger and heavier than people imagined.

"A few more people!"

"hurry up!"

"Don't let the fire spread!"

A middle-aged man who seemed to be quite prestigious shouted loudly, and several young and strong men ran over immediately, but...

Still useless.

Even if all the people gritted their teeth and tried their best, the two walls seemed to be welded to the ground and remained motionless.

"Separate these two walls, let's tear down the wall of the house behind!"

The middle-aged man shouted.

After a moment of hesitation, the people finally obeyed.

Although destroying two intact houses is something they don't want to do.

However, they are more aware that if they don't do this, the fire will spread to the entire block.

The neighborhoods they live in.

"Step aside!"

Just when everyone took two steps, a low shout came.

Then, there was a gust of wind.

The heat enveloping the flames almost blinded people's eyes.

People subconsciously dodged to the left and right.

Boom!

There was a dull sound in their ears, and when they opened their eyes, two impenetrable walls had collapsed to the ground.

Seeing the isolated fire, people cheered loudly, and looked for the strong man who toppled the two walls.

It's a pity that the people around are familiar with each other, and there is no one who agrees with the standards of Hercules.

Only the middle-aged man looked puzzled.

"It seems that someone rushed into the fire just now... how is that possible?"

"It must be too hot, my eyes are dazzled!"

The middle-aged man laughed at himself.

...

The flames kept jumping up, like the tongue of the hell devil, licking anyone who entered it.

Qin Ran strolled among them.

[Evil Body] and [Secondary Elemental Damage Resistance] made him completely ignore these flames that are fatal to ordinary people. In his eyes, these flames are just the breeze blowing on his face.

With his head down, Kieran tried his best to find the entrance of the secret room.

That's right, the Chamber of Secrets!

When he saw the wall that couldn't be knocked down by more than a dozen people, Kieran concluded that there was something wrong with this burning house.

The old-looking walls would never be so strong if some special rooms were not built in the house.

And when he helped those civilians kick the wall, Kieran was even more affirmative.

Through the transmission of power, Kieran could clearly feel that the two walls were still quite deep underground.

Far beyond the level of the average basement.

"found it!"

A few seconds later, with the previous confirmation, Kieran quickly found the passage leading to the underground.

A floor that is about to be burnt through not only loses its only covering function, but also guides the way for the latecomers.

However, only people like Qin Ran can 'see' such guidance.

And this is also the mistake of the 'arsonist'!

The opponent is too confident in Lie Yan!

Think that in the fire, everything will disappear without a trace.

But the other party only ignored Qin Ran.

boom!

Kieran kicked the place where it was still burning, and jumped into the secret room.

The secret room in front of him has also been eroded by flames.

It can even be said that the fire started here.

The flames of the whole house spread from the bottom up.

Therefore, the fire above cannot be extinguished.

In the raging flames, several charred corpses criss-crossed and fell there, and the raging flames had already lost their original faces.

The melted and burned fat connected their bodies together.

Qin Ran glanced over and murmured in a low voice.

"After the murder and silence, do you destroy the corpse?"

The situation in front of us is really easy to judge, unless these people can't think about it and want to set themselves on fire. Otherwise, they should put out the fire at the moment of the fire.

Even if it cannot be extinguished, it should be able to escape safely.

The entrance and exit of the secret room are neither suppressed by heavy objects, nor are there other things that can hinder the escape.

And everyone died here, and there was only one explanation.

They were all dead before the fire broke out.

Then, the person who killed them set the fire.

"Does the night species have other means of communication?"

Qin Ran guessed.

The current Qin Ran can be sure that among the previous bounty hunters and mercenaries there must be a night species, and this night species should have mastered some kind of long-distance transmission method! Otherwise, with his speed, it would be impossible for the night species among the bounty hunters and mercenaries to reach Burr City faster than him to inform the remaining night species.

As for the original attackers?

There is also such a possibility.

But the possibility is very low, basically negligible.

Because the original attackers wanted to 'hinder' the Night Seeds.

They or they will definitely attack with the most ruthless means, but they will not kill some people and then destroy the corpses.

It's just too much.

With the means of the initial attacker, it should be more aboveboard.

Even, in a more tragic way, it is right to intimidate the night species.

"Careless!"

"Sure enough, did you relax your vigilance because of the recent smooth sailing?"

"Obviously knowing the biggest characteristic of Yezhong, it was ignored!"

Qin Ran sighed in his heart, and then warned himself again.

He doesn't make excuses for himself.

Negligence is negligence.

Even if Ye Zhong took advantage of a psychological loophole, he instinctively ignored it.

But being exploited by the opponent is itself a lesson that needs to be remembered.

Because, not every time, the opponent's target is someone else.

Most likely it was him!

Qin Ran lowered his head and took another look at the charred corpses.

He wanted to let the other party's tragic situation go deep into his heart as a warning.

But after looking at it carefully, Kieran made another discovery.

that finger...

Qin Ran looked at the stretched fingers of a scorched corpse, and after calmly glanced at the flames beside him, he pretended to be safe and walked upwards.

Whoosh!

Just when Qin Ran was in mid-air, the violently burning flame suddenly paused, and then continued to extend, turning into a flaming whip as thick as a forearm, which was drawn towards Qin Ran who was in mid-air. The tip of the whip pierced Qin Ran's throat like a long sword.

The attacker had waited a long time for this attack.

It is also a sure thing.

Therefore, the assailant used all his strength when he made a move, without showing any mercy.

However, such a full-strength blow fell through.
