The underground explosion was naturally the work of Leonard Churchill.
Since he suspected that someone was coming, he didn’t just plant bombs upstairs to add an extra layer of insurance, but also in the mortuary.
The structure of the mortuary was enclosed like a can.
It was completely different from the open space upstairs.
There was nowhere to hide even if one were to throw a hand grenade in here.
Bullets inflicted limited damage on a Curse Card Master, but a Demon-breaking Bomb, with its thousandfold destructive power, was another matter.
Just a moment ago, when Leonard Churchill noticed that someone was entering the basement from within the corpse storage box, he immediately chose to detonate the prearranged Demon-breaking Mechanical Bomb.
There was only one bomb upstairs before, but here, there were three.
Without giving the intruder a chance to react, a green flash of fire flooded the entire mortuary.
The horrifying energy seemed to intend to shatter everything in the mortuary, reducing everything in its path to dust in the eerie green fire.
Even the corpse storage cabinet where Leonard Churchill was hiding was almost reduced to ashes in an instant, despite being lined with anti-explosion armor.
Luckily, he was wearing a full set of heavy armor.
The “Excellent Shining Silver Quality” armor was previously worn by the Third Tier Frost Knight Captain in the labyrinth.
The armor was engraved with various curses for shock absorption, magic resistance, physical resistance, hardness enhancement, etc.
Its defensive power was extremely powerful.
Moreover, at the same moment of the explosion, Leonard Churchill had also detonated a directional bomb set up at the bottom of the corpse storage cabinet, blowing a hole through the floor.
With the pressure from the mortuary explosion having an outlet, like a cannonball in a barrel, Leonard Churchill was shot into the pitch-black darkness below at high speed.
Then there were two “thuds”.
He crashed through two more floors and landed in ruins.
This was the reason why Leonard Churchill didn’t rush to escape.
He had already found an escape route in advance.
While the Corpse Collector’s dormitory of Team 18 was still an ancient ruin, the mortuary was not on the lowest floor.
It was only on the second basement floor.
After Leonard Churchill started working the day before, he deliberately observed his surroundings and also found this huge space under the mortuary.
He went down to check after breaking through the sealed concrete passage. Below was something like an underground mall with ultra-high ceilings, and it was not just one floor but the deepest part was a pit that was unknown how deep.
Such abandoned underground spaces were nothing less than normal for an underground civilization, they were everywhere in Sinless City.
Leonard Churchill fell hard onto the floor.
From the mortuary to this floor, there was a height of about thirty meters, and the destructive power of the explosion was almost as expected.
Although his vitality and blood were raging within him, fortunately, he was not seriously hurt.
Leonard Churchill got up, put away his armor, and without any pause, darted into the deep darkness.
The surroundings were completely dark, and the Night Vision Potion allowed him to see the outlines of the surrounding buildings.
Since he was discovered, he can’t take away the remaining third of the Mithril Spirit Medium.
If he chooses to escape now, he could completely abandon the Spirit Medium and escape quietly using the complex underground structure at the earliest time possible.
However, Leonard Churchill didn’t do that.
His current strength was not like it was back on Dark Rain Street.
Hehe…
If there is even a slight chance, why not give it a shot? Life would be boring without taking risks!
Leonard Churchill didn’t go far, but he watched from afar in the dark.
Not long after the explosion hole punctured the floor, a figure jumped down from the hole above.
“Still not dead, huh?”
Leonard Churchill recognized the man by his height, it was indeed the mediocre middle-aged doctor from the Border Clinic.
At this moment, his cloak had been shattered by the explosion, leaving only a few shreds of cloth covering him.
But due to the burns from the explosion, there were large patches of scorched areas on his skin.
“He must be at Diamonds 3-Plague Doctor professional sequence…”
Seeing his skin color, Leonard Churchill roughly confirmed the man’s professional sequence, which stirred him up even more.
He’s not an agility-type Curse Card Master, thus there’s a chance!
The Charm Energy Overflow, not Body Protection Curse Seal, suggests he’s a Second-Tier Curse Card Master.
If he were the Third Tier, Leonard would turn and run.
But if he’s only Second Tier, Leonard began to have other ideas as well.
A few bombs have already cost hundreds of thousands, it feels wrong not to recoup something.
In addition, although he wasn’t killed by the explosion, the man seemed to be quite injured.
In the darkness, Leonard Churchill tilted his head to look, a gleam flashed in his eyes.
For some reason, when he saw this man, he thought of those finely skinned bodies in the basement. As if peering into the demon hidden deep within the man’s heart, it was like a twisted soul seeking artistic fulfillment for spiritual satisfaction.
This doctor, sir, is not as simple as he seems to be.
An enemy with whom one can have a trace of resonance, always sparks a desire to try.
A scheming smile appeared at the corner of Leonard Churchill’s mouth.
Well then, let’s give it a try.
The plan formed instantly in his mind, and he quietly laid a few Jump Mines under his feet.
He paid a lot of money for so many high-grade munitions just to be able to take down enemies he himself couldn’t handle, right?
By now, Leonard Churchill’s “Shadow Submarine” ability was very proficient. In this kind of dark environment, as long as he didn’t want to reveal himself, it would be very difficult for others to discover him.
But for that guy to find the Spirit Medium, he would have to follow the smell.
The initiative was his.
In the darkness, there were far too many hidden killing intents.
Upon descending, the “Plague Doctor” Hensen examined the surrounding environment. His eyes glowed green, but he saw no silhouettes. But he did smell the scent of the spirit medium.
Ah, and also the delightful scent of a ludicrous plot.
However, a dismissive smirk appeared on his face shortly after..
