Chapter 371

The Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy is carrying out a series of work including casualty statistics and explosion investigations.

The explosion of the central arsenal was a very serious accident. Tens of thousands of custom-installed soul guidance shells of different grades stored in it were detonated at the same time due to unknown reasons, and all the buildings within a few kilometers were razed to the ground.

Next to the arsenal is the Sun Moon Academy. A considerable part of the academy was affected by the explosion, and the Mingde Hall built underground was wiped out in the explosion.

Fortunately among the misfortunes, the academy specially gave all personnel a one-month vacation to welcome the soul master competition. When the explosion happened, the number of researchers in Mingde Hall was only one-tenth of the normal state.

Still, this is a tragedy that hurts everyone.Some trainees also lost their lives in the explosion.

Jing Hongchen delivered a public speech in person on the second day after the explosion, and gave a mournful eulogy.

He knew in his heart that those people did not die in the explosion of the arsenal, but died under the attack of Xiao Ze earlier, and the arsenal was detonated by his former confidant.All the causes and effects seemed to be caused by him, the head of Mingde Hall.

Overnight, Jing Hongchen's appearance became much older and thinner.

As soon as Prince Xu Tianran heard the news, he expressed condolences to Sun Moon Academy and allocated various metal resources to rebuild Mingde Hall, which Jing Hongchen had to accept.

Perhaps, His Royal Highness may regard the explosion accident as a surprise in his heart.

As one of the representatives of the older royal family, Prince Xu Guozhong died, Xu Tianran could naturally come forward to compete with other princes for power under his command.At the same time, he can take this opportunity to completely win over Jing Hongchen.

The important thing about Mingde Hall was never the underground base, but the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy and the senior soul engineers in it.

Sun Moon Academy, inside Jing Hongchen's temporary office.

Jing Hongchen said to a royal priest wearing court attire in front of him, "I ask you to tell His Royal Highness that the arsenal is in ruins, and the cause of the explosion cannot be investigated at all."

"Whether it was an accident or someone did it on purpose, we don't know."

The royal priest nodded and comforted him: "Master Hongchen, don't worry, no matter what the cause is, this matter is the responsibility of Prince Guozhong. Mingde Hall and Sun Moon Academy are just unfortunately affected."

"I also hope that you will cheer up as soon as possible and preside over the restoration work."

Jing Hongchen nodded in response, concealing all the reasons.

While the two were talking, Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen barged in, seeing the royal enshrined, they were taken aback for a moment and then quickly saluted.

The royal priest smiled and said: "These two are Lingsun, I hope you will not be affected by this matter, and achieve better results in the next competition."

"Master Hongchen, I won't bother you anymore."

After speaking, he left the office.

There was no outsider in the room, Xiao Hongchen asked bluntly: "Grandpa, what happened yesterday?"

Jing Hongchen heaved a long sigh, and told Hongchen brothers and sisters the truth about not telling the royal family about the enshrining.

Only then did the Hongchen brothers and sisters realize what a terrible crisis Mingdu had experienced invisibly, and they all felt that their minds were a little blank.

After a long time, Xiao Hongchen hesitated and said, "Grandpa, where is Huo Yuhao?"

Jing Hongchen said solemnly, "I've asked many people, and they haven't seen Huo Yuhao after the explosion."

Xiao Hongchen clasped his hands together when he heard this, and couldn't help frowning a little.

Meng Hongchen asked another key question: "Grandpa, those nine-level custom-installed soul guide shells in Mingdetang didn't explode, so they were buried in the ground all the time?"

Jing Hongchen sighed helplessly: "No, the whole underground has been blown up, and the stratum can't bear it at all. It's not a small project to dig it out."

At this moment, a person broke in and said in great surprise: "Master, I found Director Lin."

"what?"

Jing Hongchen immediately stood up from the chair, his eyes lit up: "Take me to see him quickly."

Lin Jiayi was placed in a luxurious bedroom, lying on a hospital bed, looking sickly, surrounded by a group of senior soul instructors who came to condolences.

"Ouch..." Lin Jiayi moaned in pain.

The people next to him kept praising: "Director Lin, you are really amazing."

They were the ones who were there at the time and learned that Lin Jiayi went to the bottom of Mingde Hall alone to open all the shields. It was his timely operation that saved Mingdu.

Lin Jiayi didn't deny it aloud, looking at his expression, he still enjoyed others' compliments.

Jing Hongchen brought Hongchen brothers and sisters into the bedroom, everyone stopped praising and said respectfully: "Master Hongchen."

"You guys go out first, I'll have a chat with Jiayi alone." Jing Hongchen sent everyone away.

Lin Jiayi was lying on the hospital bed, pretending to be authentic: "Master Hongchen, I..."

"Okay, stop pretending, your breath is so steady, you are not sick or disaster at all." Jing Hongchen scolded with a smile, "Well done, Jiayi, you saved Mingdu."

Listening to Jing Hongchen also boasted so much, but Lin Jiayi couldn't bear it, he hesitated for a moment, and said: "Hall Master, it's actually not me, there may be someone else who saved Mingdu."

Jing Hongchen was taken aback for a moment, and motioned for him to continue talking.

Lin Jiayichen told Jing Hongchen about seeing Huo Yuhao and two mysterious masters at the last moment before he fell into a coma.

"It turned out to be Huo Yuhao!"

Hearing Huo Yuhao's name, the Hongchen brothers and sisters were a little surprised.

Jing Hongchen was taken aback for a moment, but his expression gradually calmed down.

Thinking carefully about the underground protection of Mingde Hall, in fact, the distance is so close, those shields can't stop the power of the explosion of the arsenal at all.

"Did that Northern Douluo make the move?"

Thinking of this, Jing Hongchen suddenly felt extremely relaxed.

If it was really Beidi Douluo who successfully prevented the underground warehouse from exploding, then with his protection, Huo Yuhao should be safe as well.

Thinking of this, Jing Hongchen smiled comfortably.After the joke was over, his expression returned to seriousness.

"Grandpa, Huo Yuhao will soon be our opponent in the semi-finals of Team Sun Moon." At this moment, Xiao Hongchen said.

Jing Hongchen asked: "How do you, the captain, plan to deal with it?"

This question seems to be a little too complicated, even he, the hall master of Mingde, doesn't know what the optimal solution is for the time being.

On the bright side, the universal values ​​of the mainland and the ministers of the people of Mingdu are all against evil soul masters, but the Sun and Moon Royal Family wants to cooperate with evil soul masters.Now, the Beidi family behind Huo Yuhao is in conflict with the Holy Spirit Cult.

If the more bullies the less, the Sun Moon Academy will also be despised like the Tangmen team.

But at the same time, whether it is the mission of the royal family or the Sun Moon Academy after the explosion, they all urgently need him to win the soul master competition.

This is not only a simple honor and merit, but also an inspiring hope for everyone after the disaster.

Xiao Hongchen lowered his head and pondered for a long time, then said seriously: "Grandpa, I want to choose the same approach as the Tang Sect team."

Jing Hongchen frowned and said, "You mean... also directly use an individual match to determine the winner?"

"Yes." Xiao Hongchen showed a confident smile on his face, "Grandpa, I may be the person who has fought Huo Yuhao the most times on this continent. I know his ability very well."

"Whether it's his mental power or the ultimate ice, I have already figured out a way to deal with it."

"If others are present, it will only hinder me."

While speaking, he specially sent a meaningful look to Meng Hongchen who was beside him.

Xiao Hongchen dared to conclude that Huo Yuhao alone might not be able to beat the other six people, but he must be able to beat the seven people including Meng Hongchen.

Meng Hongchen snorted when he heard the words, and turned his head away in dissatisfaction.

"But he is already the Soul Emperor." Jing Hongchen hesitated.

"I broke through to the Soul Emperor a year earlier than him." Xiao Hongchen said firmly, his eyes filled with pride, "Besides, I want to prove in this way that Sun Moon Academy is far above Shrek Academy."

Jing Hongchen nodded and said, "Okay, then it's up to you."

……

Mingyue Hotel, Holy Spirit team.

"You said the Holy Son hasn't come back yet?"

Ma Xiaotao returned to the room and looked at Scorpion Tiger Douluo Zhang Peng coldly.

Zhang Peng frowned and nodded slightly.

Ma Xiaotao said indifferently: "The semi-finals are coming up soon, I hope Shengzi has a sense of time."

The suite where the Snow Demon Sect resides.

In addition to all the younger generation, Du Bushi and other elders were also present, but everyone's face was extremely solemn.

Now there is bad news and good news for Mingdetang.

The bad news is that Mingde Hall was bombed.

The good news is that the Noumenon sect can't steal the Mingde Hall.

Not only that, the explosion of the arsenal had another extremely significant impact on the ontology sect.

Giant Fist Douluo reported in a solemn tone: "Sovereign, it's bad, there was an explosion in the center of Mingdu due to unknown reasons, and the underground passage we dug also collapsed."

Du Bushi asked in a deep voice: "Did Sun and Moon discover our secret path and sabotage it on purpose?"

Giant Fist Douluo hesitated and said: "Probably not, because Mingde Hall was also completely destroyed in this explosion, so there is no need for the Sun Moon Empire to do such a terrible thing, right? It is said that an arsenal in a city exploded accidentally."

"This..." Du Bushi was at a loss for words for a while, and couldn't help but doubt the world.

How could there be such a coincidence?What do the people of the Sun Moon Empire eat?
Not only is the arsenal located in the city center, but it is also so poorly guarded.

He suddenly felt that this world was a bit absurd. He never imagined that not only did he fail to win the Mingde Hall, he even lost the escape route.

This peerless powerhouse at the pinnacle of level 98 had an ugly complexion.

They dared not break out with Xing Luo, the confidence to stay in Mingdu was this extremely secret escape passage, without this secret passage, they would not be able to safely send the younger generation out of Mingdu.

Du Bushi also fell into the same difficulty as Xuan Lao.

He is confident to break through the blockade of the sun and moon army, but he can't protect the younger generation of Noumenon Sect.

"Sect Master, what should we do now?"

Just as Du Bushi was contemplating, a majestic voice sounded in the room.

"Poisonous old monster, you should have also discovered that the surrounding area of ​​Mingdu has been blocked by the sun and moon army, right?"

Everyone in the Noumenon sect immediately became alert.

Elder Xuan's figure suddenly appeared in the room.

"How about joining forces with the Noumenon Sect and Shrek? Together, our chances of successfully breaking through will be higher."

Du Bushi scolded: "Xuanzi, now you know how to talk about cooperation? We Tianhun Xingluo asked you to cooperate with Shrek before, don't you have nothing to do with yourself?"

Elder Xuan said indifferently: "Poison will never die, now is not the time to act impulsively, Mingdu has been surrounded by the Sun and Moon Army on the southeast, north and south sides, and each side has five nine-level fixed-installed soul guide shells."

"Even if you can break through on your own, can you protect these little kids from Noumenon Sect?"

As he said that, he intentionally glanced at Long Aotian and the others, paying particular attention to Huo Qiuer.

The closer he observed, the more he felt that this young man was not simple, and he must include this child of the Golden Dragon Wuhun in Shrek.

Du Bushi's mood was getting worse and worse, and he cursed casually: "Could it be that you Shrek people deliberately blew up the arsenal in Mingdu in order to force us to cooperate?"

Even Du Bushi himself didn't expect that he guessed half of his casual complaints correctly.

But scolding is scolding, he also seriously considered Elder Xuan's suggestion.

Du Bushi narrowed his eyes slightly: "Xu Tianran wants to trap us in Mingdu, isn't he afraid that we will fight him to the death?"

Elder Xuan heard the dangerous meaning in Du Bushi's words, and was taken aback for a moment: "Du Bushi, don't you..."

Du Bushi said coldly: "I use the entire Mingdu people as hostages to threaten Xu Tianran to disperse the army, otherwise I will release my natal poison in the center of Mingdu."

"Poisonous old monster, are you crazy? You are going to be punished by heaven!"

"Sovereign, absolutely impossible!"

Elder Xuan and everyone in Noumenon Sect expressed their opposition at the same time, and persuaded in unison.

If Dubushi does this, then the entire Mingdu will be devastated, and once it is used, the consequence will be to die together.

"This is also the last resort." Du Bushi naturally knew how harmful this was.

Moreover, the consumption and side effects of releasing the poison of natal life are also very great for him, and he will never do so until the last moment.

Elder Xuan continued: "Right now, only the west side of Mingdu has no troops deployed, and there is only a mountain range."

"West side...Qiu'er, I remember that the finals of the soul engineer competition you participated in was held in the western suburbs, right?" Du Bushi asked suddenly.

Huo Qiuer nodded and said, "Yes."

"The champion's prize seems to be a ninth-level fixed-installed soul guide shell." Du Bushi suddenly remembered something, and suddenly grinned.

Huo Qiu'er replied again: "Yes."

Du Bushi said bluntly: "Okay, since that's the case, let's take down the ninth-level fixed-installed soul guide shell and break out directly from the west of Mingdu."

Wei Na worried: "Sovereign, it is impossible for the Sun Moon Empire to deliberately leave a safe exit, there must be an ambush beyond the West Mountain."

Elder Xuan took a sip of his wine and said, "This is also the reason why we dare not break out from West Mountain rashly."

Huo Qiu'er said lightly: "Even if there is an army ambushing outside the West Mountain, we can use the ninth-level shell we used in the underground soul engineer competition to detonate their shells in advance, and there will be no threat enough to stop us."

Elder Xuan said in a condensed voice: "In that case, we will meet you in the western suburbs when the time comes."

Du Bushi didn't make any explicit objection, so he tacitly agreed to cooperate with Shrek.

Before Elder Xuan left the room, he deliberately took one last look at Huo Qiu'er.

Huo Qiu'er watched silently from the window sill, frowning.

Since yesterday, she has been unable to sense Huo Yuhao's position.
