Global Dungeon: My Support Is Too Strong

Chapter 686 - 686 Prelude to the Crisis

686 Prelude to the Crisis

A new week had begun. Lu Benwei and Chu Yan continued to carry out the secret mission of protecting Fang Xiaoxiao.

It was supposed to be a peaceful day, but on Monday night, a piece of news blew up the entire Green Spirit City.

The serial killer had been arrested! According to the police, the murderer was frustrated in love and wanted to take revenge on society.

Suddenly, the murderer attracted a scolding from the Green Spirit City residents!

“He’s indeed a pervert. He’s taking revenge on society when he’s frustrated in love!”

“This kind of person should be sentenced to death!”

“The death penalty is certain, but I don’t think this matter is as simple as it seems.”

Many people did not choose to believe the piece of news, which caused a heated discussion at night.

On the other side, Chu Yan asked Lu Benwei, “What do you think?”

“I’m not too sure.” Lu Benwei shook his head.

“Right now, we’re like headless flies, buzzing around.”

He felt rather helpless. Hu Wu had completely become the official’s wanted criminal, and they had cut off the way to obtain information. He could only quietly wait for the God Welcoming Association to come to him.

At this moment, Hu Wu suddenly called and told Lu Benwei to come to the hotel as soon as possible.

Lu Benwei and Chu Yan arrived at Hu Wu’s hotel without any explanation.

The first thing Hu Wu said to Lu Benwei was, “Another murder case.”

“What?” Lu Benwei’s eyes widened.

“Didn’t the police say that the murderer was caught?” Chu Yan frowned.

“It’s a gang crime. What’s the big deal if you catch a murderer?” Hu Wu curled his lips.

Lu Benwei and Chu Yan nodded. There was more than one person in the God Welcoming Association.

“Also, guess what I found?” Hu Wu asked meaningfully.

“If it’s something important, tell me as soon as possible. Don’t keep me in suspense!” Lu Benwei said fiercely.

Hu Wu pursed his lips in dissatisfaction and took a map from the bed.

“The map of the Laocheng District and Yangguan District. You can even get such a thing?” Lu Benwei said in surprise.

Hu Wu faintly lit a cigarette and said, “Don’t be anxious. Please watch my performance.”

Hu Wu laid the two maps on the bed and pieced them together. Then, he took out a pen and drew a circle on a spot to mark it.

Lu Benwei could tell at a glance that it was their school, First Junior High School.

Then, Hu Wu started to draw circles around, with First Middle School as the center, marking the locations.

Lu Benwei’s pupils gradually widened, and he said in disbelief, “This, this is the place where the victims were found! They’re building a formation!”

Hu Wu slowly exhaled a mouthful of smoke and stared at the map. “It seems like so.”

On the two maps, with First Middle School as the center, the locations of the victims formed a radius of three miles.

“Including the dead today, there are nineteen people who died.” Hu Wu held the cigarette between his fingers. Green smoke swirled around his fingertips.

“What kind of formation is it that requires the flesh and blood of a human’s five internal organs?” Lu Benwei said in shock.

“I’m not sure. We don’t have time to figure out the formation now. The battle is about to begin,” Hu Wu said hurriedly, “Tomorrow, the God Welcoming Association will take action.”

At this moment, Lu Benwei suddenly thought of something and called the Imperial Baby out.

“You have quite a deep understanding of formations. Help me look at this map. What kind of formation needs to be activated by the flesh and blood of a human’s five internal organs?” Lu Benwei asked.

The Imperial Baby hurriedly glanced at the two maps and crossed his arms. “Tsk, can’t you see through this small formation?”

“Pa!”

Lu Benwei could not help but slap the Imperial Baby’s butt. “Tell me, who did you learn this bad habit of keeping me in suspense from?”

The Imperial Baby felt wronged, and his eyes were filled with tears.

“Sob, sob, sob. It’s just a simplified version of the Spirit Penetrating Formation! The person who set up the formation will transform into a spirit and squeeze out the target’s soul to occupy the target’s body.

“However, the person who sets up the formation is very weak. He needs the energy from the five internal organs and flesh in the formation pillar to maintain the spirit. Moreover, he can only attach himself to ordinary people.”

Lu Benwei’s pupils contracted sharply.

“It’s just an ordinary person. In your words, they don’t have a level!” the Imperial Baby said with a sobbing tone.

Instantly, the three people in the room frowned, their expressions extremely solemn.

Just as the Imperial Baby said, the ultimate goal of the formation was pointed at one person – Fang Xiaoxiao!

“They want to use this method to steal Fang Xiaoxiao’s ability to see through life and death?!”

Lu Benwei came to this conclusion.

After a pause, the Imperial Baby said, “The Spirit Penetrating Formation has another advantage. It can also form a barrier on its own. No one can enter or leave!”

He stared at the map and said, “But I don’t understand why the person who set up the formation set up such a large area. Generally, to increase the success rate of the Spirit Penetrating Formation, the range will be set to the smallest.”

At this moment, everyone’s hearts were heavy. “When will they activate the formation?”

Fang Xiaoxiao was still at home, some distance away from the formation.

“Don’t go home tonight. Take turns guarding here,” Lu Benwei said.

It was a fact that the war was about to begin. A battle could break out at any moment.

Moreover, Lu Benwei, Chu Yan, and Hu Wu were extremely passive. How many people did the other party have, and how strong were their experts? Moreover, the radius was three miles. Why was the area so wide?

At the same time, in the residential area one street away from the small hotel.

“How’s the situation?”

“Lu Benwei and Chu Yan are now with Hu Wu.”

“It’s not easy for us to do it!”

The three members of the God Welcoming Association said sneakily.

“I don’t understand why we don’t just snatch them over now and activate the formation,” one of them said unhappily.

“What do you know? Don’t you know Lu Benwei’s combat strength? With him around, the possibility of our plan succeeding is zero!”

One of them cursed and then laughed slyly. “Don’t worry, we’ll be able to capture the Divine Wizard.”

“Tomorrow Lord Ten Fingers will prepare everything! At that time, we’ll be able to welcome the Divine Child back.”

…

The next morning at six o’clock, the night was peaceful.

Lu Benwei did not relax even for a short while.

“The formation has already been completed. Why are they still not making a move?” Lu Benwei’s expression was solemn.

Hu Wu scratched his ears and cheeks, puzzled.

At this moment, Fang Xiaoxiao left the house with her bag. She was wearing a floral dress and had two pigtails. She looked especially obedient.

Lu Benwei shook his hands and slowly exhaled. “Let’s go. We should go too.”
