Chapter 5088: Urgency
On the east coast of the Kingdom of Prit, in the outskirts of Tivian.
In the woods outside Lengya Prison, a sudden and violent explosion resounded through the sky. Above the originally small and remote forest, a violent shock wave and scorching flames swept out together, affecting a large area at once. Countless towering trees were enveloped in it, and the earth trembled.
When the explosion ended, in the diffuse smoke and dust, the overturned vehicle that was originally at the center of the explosion had disappeared. Instead, there was a huge black pit. Around the pit, there were large tracts of fallen trees in a scattered shape. The whole scene was in a mess.
Outside the explosion site, in an area that was not affected, several figures were gathered behind a huge rock shelter under the shade of a tree, looking at the explosion site in the distance. They were the guards of Lengya Prison who were escorting the exploded vehicle just now, and Gregor who was chasing them in front.
The two parties who were supposed to be the pursuers and the pursued were actually standing together at this moment, looking towards the direction of the explosion in the distance without any signs of conflict between them, and everyone's eyes were filled with serious expressions.
"It has exploded. I wonder what the situation is like?"
"I don't know. We have to confirm it. We have to see the person alive or the body dead."
Looking at the fallen tree in the distance, several men dressed as prison guards looked at each other and spoke seriously. Then, these disguised top eight agents prepared to go forward to check the explosion site in detail. When Greg wanted to catch up, he was stopped by the leader among them.
"Wait, don't move for now. To be on the safe side, it's best not to let her look at you."
"Well... okay." Hearing the words of the top eight members in front of him, Gregor nodded and said, then he stayed where he was and no longer followed them out. He just silently watched the guards quickly take off their disguises, put on cloaks, picked up their weapons, and rushed towards the direction of the explosion.
At this moment, outside the explosion site, a figure was lying in a pool of blood. It was Northben who had transformed into Misha. At this moment, he was affected by the explosion and was covered in blood. His skin was covered with cracks and he fell to the ground with a hideous look on his face.
At this time, Northburn escaped a little further due to his timely reaction at the last moment before the explosion. Although he was not directly blown to pieces by the explosion, he was also directly blown to the ground seriously injured. He could not get up again and could only stare with eyes wide open, moving his body with difficulty.
“Ugh… wuwuwu!!!”
Just as the seriously injured Northburn was preparing to climb up with difficulty, a piercing numbness and tingling sensation suddenly flowed through his body. His whole body could not help but tremble and twitch, and then he fainted and lost consciousness. However, he opened his eyes again after a few seconds, but the fear before fainting was no longer in his eyes. Instead, there was a calm indifference.
"Northben", who had just regained consciousness, struggled to sit up in a pool of blood, gasping for breath and looking into the distance with a solemn look. Then he saw several men in cloaks and masks rushing out of the woods at a very high speed and coming to Xiaoyu. After seeing the injured Northben who had turned into Misha, everyone couldn't help but frown.
"Who are you... ahem...? How dare you..." Facing the scene in front of him, Northburn asked several men while coughing up blood. After the masked men looked at each other, one of them winked at another, and the man who was winked at immediately reacted and said,
"Boss, what should we do if she's not dead yet? Our mission is to save people, and she is not part of our plan."
"Never mind, let's kill this black dog first to avoid trouble in the future."
After this conversation, several masked men rushed towards the injured Northben with weapons in their hands, and seeing this, Northben with Misha's face waved his hand, and a gust of wind immediately blew up in the venue, whistling towards the attacking masked men. For a moment, they were blown to cover their faces with their hands, and Northben was blown up from the pool of blood by another gust of wind, and blew towards the distance. One of the masked men couldn't help but shout loudly after seeing this scene.
"She still has the power to activate her abilities! Don't let her get away!"
As they spoke, several of the masked men raised their guns, aimed at Northburn who was being blown away by the wind and fired. Amidst a burst of intense gunfire and diffuse smoke, bullets flew out of the gun barrels, and several of them hit Northburn directly, causing him to fall from mid-air while screaming, and hit the ground heavily.
Seeing that he could not escape, despair appeared on Northben's face with Misha's face. He fell to the ground and looked at the enemy who was rushing towards him. He used up his last strength to take out a talisman from his body. After seeing the talisman, several masked men suddenly became alert. However, at this time, Northben attached the talisman to his own body, and finally shouted loudly to the masked men who were chasing him with a sharp voice.
"I curse you forever! Filthy bastards from the shadows!"
Northborn used the talisman, but this talisman did not give Northborn any strengthening effect, nor did it create any vision that could help Northborn escape. Instead, a blazing flame suddenly burst out from the place where the talisman was pasted, instantly engulfing Northborn completely. He himself turned into a fire man in an instant, and bursts of wailing came from the flames.
"Burning Body Seal..."
Seeing this scene, several eight-pointed masked men suddenly stopped and looked at the target lying motionless in the flames. The leader among them couldn't help muttering, "He knew what this talisman was."
In the dark and cruel struggle of the secret world, countless official and unofficial Extraordinaries fought fiercely in secret, and in the struggle of these Extraordinary organizations, death is often not the end. After an Extraordinary dies in the secret struggle, his remaining body, bones, and even soul may become the spoils of the enemy, being desecrated and used again in various ways. The Burning Body Talisman is a tool that can preserve the dignity of the Extraordinary and even save his soul in desperate moments.
The function of the Burning Body Talisman is very simple. It can only be used on people who have no intention of resisting. The whole body of the person who has been hit by the Burning Body Talisman will turn into flammable fuel and burn up quickly in a very short period of time. The whole body will burn up immediately, and the flesh and bones on the body, and even all the items carried will be burned into ashes.
If the flesh is burned, it can no longer be served on the table or used as a puppet. If the bones are burned, they can no longer be processed into handicrafts. The dead body is the best medium for spiritual communication. Without the body as a medium, the difficulty of spiritual communication will increase significantly. At the same time, some items on the body will also be burned, preventing the enemy from obtaining powerful loot or any useful information.
Because of these various benefits, things like the Burning Talisman are distributed in many large extraordinary organizations, especially official extraordinary organizations. They are distributed to middle-level cadres and some personnel performing special tasks, so that they can give themselves a decent ending when they are at the end of their rope. And obviously, in the eyes of these masked men, Northben... or "Misha" is in this situation at this moment.
Just like that, under the attention of several eight-pointed masked men, the burning flames quickly went out after rapidly burning everything that could be burned, and turned into green smoke that drifted away. Seeing this scene, the masked men looked at each other, then nodded silently, and then looked at the noisy and chaotic Lengya Prison in the distance, and quickly evacuated the scene.
After the masked men evacuated, in the distance, in the crown of a dense tree, on a branch, a royal knight wearing a coat, who was paying close attention to the situation in the distance, breathed a sigh of relief, and not far away from her, the man called "detective" spoke with a smile.
"They are already dead. Congratulations, Miss Misha. Now, no matter in the eyes of the Eight-pointed Nest or the Security Bureau, you are already dead. You are truly free."
