Chapter 631: Calling for Help from Withered Bones Path 749 — I Really Don’t Want to Keep Indulging Lu Ding
Watching Lu Ding move through their ranks as if entering an unguarded territory, indiscriminately slaughtering their Qi Refiners.
What's more, he even had the leisure to deliberately kill people by shattering only below the neck, casually tossing the intact heads high to build a towering skull mound.
This scene, as cruel and bloody as hell, once again illustrated to Sasaki and Saika Maki, who were secretly watching from inside the Tai Island consulate building, the true worth behind a 749 Bureau investigator having an ominous nickname like Corpse-Shattering Taishui.
Sasaki's hands were trembling.
"How is he so strong!!!?"
He couldn't believe it.
According to his previous information, Lu Ding should currently only be at the Heavenly Perception realm, at most barely at the first restriction of the Five Decays of Heaven-Man.
So how could he now be displaying strength at the mid-stage of the Three Restrictions?
And what was with this ridiculously exaggerated combat performance?
He had come to the new city specifically to avoid Lu Ding.How the hell did he run into him everywhere!!!
Seeing the situation like this, Sasaki understood.
Today, unless Lu Ding killed him, it probably wouldn't be over.
Considering Lu Ding's operational style and reputation within the Third Circle.
Sasaki knew that once this person decided on something, there would definitely be no other outcome.
He immediately said: "No good, I have to run."
Better others die than poor me, as long as he could survive, these colleagues dying was no big deal.
Seeing he wanted to flee the battlefield.
Saika Maki raised her hand to stop him, saying: "No need to rush, a special investigator from White Ridge 749 has no jurisdiction over the Path of Dry Bones area."
"At times like this, watching dogs fight dogs is what makes it interesting."
As Saika Maki spoke, she took out her phone and dialed the Path of Dry Bones 749 emergency report number.
She specifically kept a trick up her sleeve.
She called the public emergency number, not the direct lines for the Path of Dry Bones 749 Bureau Chief or Deputy Bureau Chief.
As soon as the call connected, a female voice came from the other side.
"Hello, Path of Dry Bones 749."
Saika Maki's voice carried a sobbing tone: "Come quickly, someone is attacking the Tai Island Consulate in Path of Dry Bones, many people have already died."
Slap—she hung up the phone.
The operator on the other end was stunned, instinctively failing to ask for detailed information.
Only one thought circled in her mind:
Wait... who?
Who has such nerve?
Daring to attack a consulate?
Immediately the alarm was pulled, red lights flashing throughout Path of Dry Bones 749.
A voice came through the speakers:
[Emergency mission, emergency mission, the Tai Island Consulate is under attack by unknown criminals, situation critical, all investigators please provide urgent support, all investigators please provide urgent support]
If it were ordinary people, or an ordinary organization, encountering such a situation, Path of Dry Bones 749 definitely wouldn't be this proactive.
But the Tai Island Consulate was different.
'International friends' plus monthly tributes, yearly gifts.
They were the major VIP of Path of Dry Bones 749's primary revenue stream.
Due to the severity of the matter, Path of Dry Bones 749 not only mobilized many investigators to go, they even sent messages to the Bureau Chief and Deputy Bureau Chief of Path of Dry Bones 749 who had gone to support and investigate the situation in Xiankong Town.
Earlier, the commotion over in Xiankong Town had been too big.
Path of Dry Bones was close by, and walls have ears in this world—many people had witnessed it then.
Therefore.
Lu Ding's identity had naturally spread here along with the aftermath of that battle against the master of the Crystal Coffin and Jin Si.
It immediately attracted the attention of Duan Tianya, Bureau Chief of Path of Dry Bones 749.
Due to insufficient understanding of Lu Ding as a person, coupled with wariness toward his status as a special investigator.
For caution's sake, Duan Tianya brought along his deputy bureau chief, Nan Kaiye.
But before the two with their subordinates had even reached the location.
An urgent message came through on Duan Tianya's phone.
His eyes sharpened.
[Tai Island Consulate in Path of Dry Bones attacked]
Nan Kaiye, following beside him, noticed his emotional change and blurted out: "What's wrong?"
Compared to the mutually antagonistic relationship between Qian Jin and Hou Dehai of White Ridge 749.
The relationship between these two was much more normal.
The main reason was that Duan Tianya wasn't the type to take everything for himself.
"The Tai Island Consulate is under attack."
As soon as he said this.
Nan Kaiye immediately responded: "Then should I go back and check?"
Originally, he hadn't been very keen on meeting Lu Ding.
To put it bluntly, according to their intelligence, Lu Ding was a White Ridge 749 special agent, not a Path of Dry Bones 749 special agent.
Nan Kaiye didn't understand why they needed to treat him so seriously.
Both the Bureau Chief and Deputy Bureau Chief going together.
People who didn't know might think they were meeting some high-ranking leader.
Moreover, the previously relayed information mentioned that Lu Ding had hit Shen Qixue.
That was his precious niece.
If it were according to Nan Kaiye's usual temper, he would have long since erupted.
But Duan Tianya had specifically told him to endure.
He was truly afraid he might not be able to hold back.
Coincidentally, now there was something else to do, and knowing his temper might get the better of him, Nan Kaiye thought about just not going.
Then there'd be no problem.
Out of sight, out of mind.
Duan Tianya hesitated somewhat;
logically speaking, no matter what, Lu Ding's status as a special investigator, to some extent, took priority over local bureau chiefs like them.
Going to show their faces and get acquainted could only bring benefits, no harm.
Everything could be discussed.
But if Nan Kaiye didn't go now, it might appear insufficiently respectful.
The reputation coming out about Lu Ding wasn't that of a kind and gentle person either—what if he took offense...
It could be somewhat awkward.
Seeing him hesitate, Nan Kaiye added: "It's fine, you're the Bureau Chief of our Path of Dry Bones 749, having you is enough. Besides, I don't even know who this Lu Ding is."
"Whoever he is, nails fear hammers—I really don't want to indulge him."
"Not very old, but quite the handful. You know my temper—what if we clash? Wouldn't that ruin your plans?"
Nan Kaiye rarely managed to persuade Duan Tianya once.
Thinking it over carefully.
That was true.
But the main reason was still that the matter of the Tai Island Consulate being attacked couldn't be treated carelessly.
After all, they were international friends, a major financial source.
That elusive special agent from another district, Lu Ding, needed serious treatment.
But the Tai Island Consulate needed even more serious treatment.
Sending a deputy bureau chief should sufficiently show their attitude.
"Alright, you go. After handling things over there, send me a message and wait for my notification."
Nan Kaiye turned direction and headed straight for the Tai Island Consulate.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Tai Island Consulate.
Watching the Tai Island Qi Refiners rushing forward one after another, intending to stop him but actually like mayflies trying to shake a tree, continuously throwing their lives away.
Sasaki couldn't stay put.
Facing Saika Maki who spoke in riddles and refused to tell him what she planned to do next, Sasaki once again asked:
"Saika Maki, what exactly are you trying to do?"
Pointing outside: "Do you think the ordinary Path of Dry Bones investigators you summoned by calling the 749 public emergency number can capture him?!"
Just look at Lu Ding—he had already gone berserk.
Currently swinging two legs, torn from some Tai Island Qi Refiner's body, smashing one after another of the charging Tai Island Qi Refiners into pulp.
His eyes occasionally still glanced toward their direction.
