Chapter 400 Sulfur and the Spellcaster

S+O₂

Sulfur + oxygen.

A bright blue-purple flame can be obtained by igniting it with a flame. This flame, which is different from other natural substances, makes those who see it obsessed with studying its properties.

An excellent oxidizing agent.

What's more coincidental is that sulfur exists widely in nature as a simple substance, which means that utilizing it does not require advanced technology.

Carbon, nitrate, sulfur.

Humanity has gained the power to change the course of its own civilization.

gunpowder.

Then humans who have taken another path, holding this simple substance that exudes this exquisite aura, are deeply attracted by the blue-violet light that blooms when sulfur burns.

In a certain corner of history, it may be the wisdom of spellcasters, or it may be an unknown genius spellcaster.

Just as technological civilization will surely find gunpowder-like explosives in a corner, it will find a mixture that releases a large amount of heat and gas and apply it in life.

Fireball was born.

For the first time, human beings used natural materials as their own spell-casting media, and used the violent power of fire as their own weapons.

With continuous improvement, this technology has become capable of creating a five-meter-diameter fireball driven by a magic medium that can engulf most medium-sized structures.

Lightning, Fireball, Mage Armor.

Lightning spell against constructs and elemental life.

Fireball against large numbers of targets and biological units.

Mage Armor/Mage Shield against incoming arrows and bullets.

By improving the mage tower included in the territory, the three will obtain the real backbone of the magic civilization - the war mage.

There was a dull breathing sound under the gas mask, and the caster looked up at the two flesh-and-blood turbines in front of him that were spitting out flaming steam and using four legs made of steel to support him to stand up again.

Ji Lin blinked, feeling an indescribable feeling stuck in his chest.

He already somewhat understood why so many people liked to go to the battlefield on their own, piling themselves up with resources and destroying the enemy with the power they released.

Then drag the territory into the path of death.

Ji Lin coughed lightly. Nearly half of the power he was currently using came from the auxiliary abilities provided by the high-ranking priest. He could borrow part of this high-ranking priest's power for a small amount of time.

Use your strength to make yourself look less like a Muggle who will break at the touch of a touch.

The feeling of casting a spell is really good, at least it is different from sitting in the command room.

The flame ball hit, and the orange-red radiance was mixed with a trace of undetectable white flames seeping into it. These white flames spread and began to erode the nerves of the target the moment it hit the target.

This spellcasting process is like shaping a ball of flame, using the spell model to create a short-term restraint, and directing the churning ball of flame on the target.

The only drawback is that the range is too short.

He almost cast the spell at an extremely close range of twenty meters. The fireball spell directly hit the two flesh-and-blood turbines that were almost overlapping with no attenuation of the power, causing them to interact with the surrounding ruins containing wooden materials and oil. Burns quickly.

They were not completely dead yet. The steel attachment plates on the two flesh turbines fell off on the ground. They removed the attachment plates layer by layer to keep the flames away from their bodies.

It doesn't matter, try it again.

Flesh and blood is flammable, with a ignition point of only 250 degrees, but it contains a lot of water and takes a long time to ignite.

Brimstone, cast action, build spell model.

Add a little bit of magical assistance to add some ability to resist creatures to this spell.

God's holy flame is also good for burning things.

"boom--"

Not dead?

"boom--"

The vitality is also a bit too tenacious.

"boom--"

"You mean, someone has already started working?"

How interesting.

The leader of the Nightcrow Squad looked at the inspector through his glasses as he took out a new cigarette and put it in his mouth, but he still didn't light it.

"We didn't send other staff to work. Maybe you should ask yourself, are you asking the wrong people in the process?"

silence.

"I think with your iconic features, I shouldn't find the wrong person."

The inspector did not give in, but he felt a little embarrassed. He saw that the young man's temperament did not look like that of an ordinary person.

It couldn't be that I really found the wrong person.

"He has already started working. You can take a short rest here. There is black tea and coffee on the steam train..."

The inspector looked at the team leader. The lenses of the night crows had been individually transparent so that the outside world could not see the faces behind the masks.

The eyes are the windows to the soul, and they build high walls for themselves.

The one-way transparent anti-fog lenses and the iconic beak-like structure are the best features that distinguish them from ordinary people.

The combination of filter runes and custom filter elements allows it to block all toxic gases... Its essence is to extract oxygen and nitrogen from the air to create absolutely clean air.

Some people say that wherever they go, misfortunes will happen, and that's just because they only appear in unfortunate places - so that every such special department will form something like an urban legend.

These special departments, if they exist, will also be entered into the special special forces by the system and handed over to the lord who completes the task, just like obtaining blueprints for buildings and units.

"How about we go in directly? We've been traveling for a long time...I've wanted to deal with something for a long time."

A hoarse female voice sounded in the team, and a night crow raised the long box in his hand and stood it upright on the ground. The box made a heavy muffled sound when it hit the ground.

"We are not here just because you want, you government..."

The team leader stopped the actions of his ordinary night crows. Looking far away, he could see the flickering light inside the factory through the glass window.

"No, wait a minute."

The leader shook his head slightly, allowing her to control her emotions a little.

He lowered his head slightly, as if sniffing something in the air, stripping out the new strange smell in the air.

"Don't you smell it? There's a... wonderful smell of burning flesh and blood in the air."

The inspector didn't know how he could smell the smell in the air through the thick mask. Was it because the steam train's incinerator hadn't disposed of the corpses yet?

"Click——"

The eyes of Night Crow and the guards fell on the figure who opened the side door of the factory and walked out of the factory building with bright firelight.

He raised his head and looked around, and his eyes finally fell on the inspector who was talking to the night crows.

————

"Adams, did you hire other helpers?"

Ji Lin walked up to the inspector, but his eyes were on the other night crows standing next to him, and he lightly snapped his fingers.

The dim light helped the inspector light the cigarette in his mouth. The tobacco turned red and began to burn slowly.

Smoke rose, softening the newly condensed air.

"Sorry, it took me a little longer. I'll trouble you to deal with it afterwards."

The inspector's eyes fell on Ji Lin's ungloved hands, and then he glanced at the burning factory building. Taking a deep breath, I decided not to open this topic myself for the time being.

His work and mission were essentially done, and in the tradition of government employees, what happened next was none of his business.

"Well, the situation inside has been basically resolved."

Ji Lin shrugged, the crow's short beak swayed gently, and the protective mask completely covered their eyes, emotions and sight under the thick lenses.

He turned around and his eyes fell on the factory floor that was starting to burn not far away. The flames would completely purify the residue in this factory for him.

Solved...it should be considered solved.

The flames rose, completely igniting all the organic matter in the factory that gave birth to the alien.

Wood, flesh, oil.

There are a lot of high-quality and flammable materials in the factory. Flames spread quickly in confined spaces. These materials will help the flames rise higher.

Higher and more ferocious flames will engulf the factory floor, burning and engulfing the factory floor and adjacent facilities.

"Inspector Adams, I think you should ask your police officers to evacuate the workers in the surrounding factories at this time."

Looking at the boiling flames, Ji Lin seemed to be able to smell a twisted and pungent breath entering his nose through the mask.

The fire was so strong that the fireball technique ignited all surrounding combustible materials when it was released.

Although this factory is still a little far away from the surrounding factories, he is not sure how much impact the high temperature and heat, as well as the spreading toxic gases, will have on the nearby operating factories.

Based on his knowledge of fires, it was best to evacuate.

Otherwise many people will die.

"It would be best to have a complete evacuation within an hour and maintain the lockdown for three days."

Then let them get to work.

"Sir, you see, this matter will make the knights in charge of this factory area unhappy..."

The inspector swallowed. He did not expect that the Night Crow's solution was much more violent than he imagined.

The rising flames almost spread and engulfed the entire factory after he came out. Only the surrounding hard steel frame restrained the flames from flowing out.

Fortunately, the nearby factory workshops are all separated by a certain distance, leaving tracks for the steam trains to move to facilitate the transportation of resources... But the burned-out factory workshop in front of us is hopeless.

"After all, those entrepreneurs... attach great importance to the benefits produced by their factories..."

He hesitated, wanting Ji Lin's approval.

"This is my order."

Ji Lin nodded, tilting his lenses slightly closer, and spoke to the inspector in front of him.

There is a difference between chronic death and acute death. The dust in the factory will not kill a worker immediately, but the toxic gases produced by the fire will.

"All factories are shutting down to prevent the spread of pollution... As for their income, I will apply to the higher authorities to compensate for their losses... If they have any opinions, let them come to see me. This is all to avoid that kind of If a disaster happens again - if they want to complain, they can come to me personally.”

The assistant responded extremely quickly and saluted Ji Lin, and spoke quickly before his inspector could speak.

"Yes, sir! We will start evacuation immediately!"

Ji Lin's eyes shifted slightly and fell on the young man who was an assistant inspector. His skin was whiter than those around him, and he was not like those on-site police officers and inspectors who had been fighting on the front line for a long time.

Adams sighed and nodded.

The police officers moved and spread out under the command, surrounding the fire scene and starting to evacuate surrounding buildings. Guards with live ammunition followed the instructions and kicked open the factory door.

They have received instructions, from the cleaners and doctors.

Since the other party has clearly stated that they will take the blame, they can clear these factories and implement the blockade according to tactical specifications.

The reputation of the Night Crows is bad enough, and it doesn't matter if it gets worse.

If they can get these people to sue the Night Crows' headquarters in New London, maybe there will be another body in the dark water of the Thames tomorrow.

————

"Well, hello?"

After letting the inspector leave, Ji Lin turned around and looked at a group of eight visitors wearing crow masks and black windbreakers.

"Leader of Night Crow Group 13, Ji."

He stretched out his hand and told the other party his name first to show friendship... Maybe the other party is his subordinate, after all, the system has not arranged help for him this time.

But no, he is still alone.

"I'm the leader of Night Crow Group 7, Stoke."

The leading Night Crow leaned forward slightly to pay tribute to the colleague who had just walked out of the fire scene, and the crows behind him also leaned forward slightly in the same way.

Express your respect for the colleague in front of you who showed his strength.

...

"Wait, you said this is the area you manage and your job?"

Ji Lin lowered his head and thought about something.

But he couldn't find more evidence from himself. There was no more information in his clothes and pockets. He could only wait until he arrived at the headquarters of the Night Crows to consider it.

Then he actually came here just...coincidence?
