168: Detonate the bomb! Dust to dust, ashes to ashes...
The management personnel of the villa area, including those tycoons who were still watching TV at home, gathered at the main entrance.
They shouted, "What happened? Why the emergency evacuation?!"
"Who was yelling about an explosion just now? I ran out without even putting on my pants!"
"No way! We need to complain, we need to claim compensation for emotional distress!"
The official personnel were exhausted from explaining.
The high-level leaders had already made arrangements for Su Yun's funeral.
Regiment Commander Hu said to Zheng Jianfeng, "Old Zheng, that tombstone carving master from last time, Master Mu, right?"
"Please contact him again… and trouble him to come over one more time…"
Another tombstone to carve?!
Fatty Wang Fan jumped out, "No need to trouble him for a tombstone! I have one ready here!"
The one Master Mu carved for the Qin Dynasty Ancient Tomb last time hadn't even been used yet.
Now, Wang Fan finally understood: it would be used sooner or later!
— [Holy crap! No way?]
— [My Brother Su isn't really stuck in there, is he?]
— [It's a poison gas bomb, even if the human body absorbs a tiny bit, it's game over!]
— [Sigh… Brother Su can be considered to have died a worthy death!]
Crash… Just as everyone was preparing for Su Yun's funeral.
A group of personnel in protective suits, looking flustered, ran over.
Regiment Commander Hu was surprised when he saw them, "Why did you all run over here? Didn't I tell you to hold your ground?"
Could it be that something else had happened?!
Hearing this, the leading soldier said, "Reporting, Regiment Commander! The gas threat has been completely eliminated!"
Is that so?!
A rare hint of relief appeared on everyone's faces.
Then, they started to rush towards the villa's backyard.
Concerned for Su Yun's safety, they wanted to confirm immediately: was there still a need for rescue?
However… before everyone could run out.
The soldier who had just run out said, "Don't! Don't go over there!"
Because he had run too fast, he was a little out of breath when he spoke.
Regiment Commander Hu anxiously asked, "Why not go over there?! Did Brother Su Yun die without a complete body?!"
"Or… was the integrity of his body destroyed?!"
"It doesn't matter… alive, we need to see him; dead, we need to see his body…"
Their feelings for Su Yun were a mix of love and fear.
The soldier took a deep breath and said again, "Regiment Commander… no, it's not that!"
"It's Su Yun, he, he wants to detonate the bombs!"
Ah?!
Everyone: ???
A group of people looked utterly bewildered.
The air seemed to have been paused.
Why would he detonate the bombs?
Didn't one of the gas bombs already explode?
And he still wants to detonate them?!
Zheng Jianfeng immediately thought, "Is it because Brother Su Yun knows he won't survive, so he wants to perish with the bombs?!"
This is the first… the first time I've heard of such a thing!
They've seen people perish with enemies, but never someone who actively wants to detonate bombs and perish with them?!
Unthinkable… — [What the hell does 'perishing with bombs' even mean?! What kind of bizarre thought process is that?!]
— [Others might not do it, but maybe Brother Su really can do something like that!]
— [Alright… even if Brother Su dies, he wants to go out with a bang?!]
— [So many bombs, exploding at the same time, will the impact be huge?]
The hundreds of millions of fans and netizens in the livestream room couldn't hold back after hearing Zheng Jianfeng's remarks.
Fatty Wang Fan stared with wide eyes, taking deep breaths… Please no, if Brother Su perishes with the bombs, he won't even find his body!
Hearing this, the leading soldier shook his head again and replied, "No… it's Brother Su Yun, he wants to actively detonate the bombs!"
"And it's strange… his state when he spoke to me at the time was very calm!"
"Or rather, very excited!"
"He was clearly face-to-face, absorbing the damage from the gas bomb at the closest distance, but…"
"He gave off a feeling of being very excited!"
He vaguely remembered Su Yun's back as he turned and waved to them.
Su Yun was walking towards the basement.
Everyone: ???
They were bewildered again!
They were shocked by what the soldier said and what Su Yun intended to do!
He doesn't want to perish with the bombs?!
Then? Actively?! Detonate… the bombs?!
What kind of thought process does that kid have, seriously?!
Regiment Commander Hu expressed that he was a bit on edge, "What is that brat thinking? Does he have the confidence to safely dispose of those bombs?"
"I've never seen such a crazy young man…"
— [Oh! So, Brother Su is safe!]
— [Blind guess! Brother Su probably just wants to let off some steam…]
— [Exactly! Just letting off some anger!]
— [After spending so much time together, don't you all understand Brother Su's personality by now?]
— [What's crazy or not crazy, he's just doing something he considers very reasonable!]
Rumble… It was at this moment.
A deafening, terrifying explosion that sent everyone into a panic struck… The ground beneath their feet began to tremble violently… The villa complex, like toy models, swayed… Countless birds around scattered, chirping as if fleeing for their lives… "Earthquake! Earthquake!"
"Oh my god! This is truly deadly!"
"Run! Run quickly!"
At this moment, those tycoons who had been clamoring for compensation from the official personnel… what emotional distress, what about wearing pants or not wearing pants… even those who weren't wearing underwear all started to flee for their lives… For a moment… the military and police, calm in the face of danger, stood firm… in stark contrast to the panicked escape of the tycoons!
— [Turns out tycoons are as disheveled as I am when they run!]
— [With their necks locked, bare-chested…]
— [Rounding up, we're all actually tycoons!]
— [Holy crap! This terrifying tremor, is it really an earthquake?!]
Buzz… When the trembling stopped.
A straight crack appeared on the asphalt road leading to the villa.
The high-level officials exchanged glances… Their eyes all turned towards the direction of Fatty Zhang's villa.
Their lips twitched uncontrollably… Earthquake?!
Don't joke around!
Longhai City is located in the Central Plains; first, earthquakes rarely occur, and even if they do, there would be advance warnings… The reason for the ground trembling was none other than that guy inside… Regiment Commander Hu rubbed his throbbing forehead, "Very good, the bombs have been detonated."
The problem is solved, no need to dwell on whether to stop it or not.
There was no need to stop it at all… Zheng Jianfeng smiled bitterly, "Then… is Brother Su Yun still alive?"
You know, among those bombs, there were thermobaric bombs!
Although… they weren't sure how Su Yun managed to keep the other villas undamaged.
But, one thing… Fatty Zhang's villa… should be gone, right?
For safety's sake… a group of high-level officials eagerly wanted to go and observe the scene firsthand.
And so… even the inspection steps were omitted, and a group of high-level officials put on protective suits and carefully walked to the main gate of the villa.
Director Chen asked in confusion, "Where's the door?"
Fatty Zhang scratched his head and found the large iron gate in the rubble nearby, "It's here!"
A perfectly good steel-reinforced iron gate was blown to smithereens… Just over an hour ago, it was a complete, very luxurious villa with a swimming pool… An hour later, dust to dust, ashes to ashes… Zheng Jianfeng sighed, "Brother Su Yun's destructive power is still as strong as ever!"
He used to work in the Military Region's mess hall… now out in society, he directly turned someone's villa into ruins!
He Zhendong's worldview had been refreshed countless times… This was truly thrilling… Since he became the Commander of the Southern Military Region, even military exercises hadn't been this exciting!
One could say… this was definitely the closest he, the Commander, had ever been to death!
He Zhendong clicked his tongue, "Comrade Su Yun… is he still alive?!"
Beep beep beep… As soon as he finished speaking, the relevant testing personnel beside him reported with pleasant surprise.
"Regiment Commander! Safe!"
"Everything is safe!"
Thermobaric bombs, gas bombs, biological bombs… no threats, no hidden dangers at all!
Everyone removed their protective hoods and gas masks… Regiment Commander Hu shouted, "Brother Su Yun is truly amazing…"
"Hurry!"
"Notify everyone!"
"Dig three feet deep if you have to, but find Brother Su Yun!"
"I'll say it again: alive, we must see him! Dead, we must see his body!"
Crack… Just one minute after the message was conveyed.
In the rubble, a piece of ceiling was forcefully pushed open by a terrifying power from below… "Cough cough cough…"
"Damn it, I should have hidden further away!"
