Chapter 1333: Huo Ming's Life-saving Method in Nevernight
No matter how unbelievable Fu Luo found it, at least the tragedy that happened in the Universal Chamber of Commerce was a real and irreversible fact.
The sounds of burning and wailing mixed together, and Lin Yu frowned uncomfortably.
"It's precisely because this guy is still pretending to be a good person within the 'order' that I want to find him and expose him."
Lin Yu said this, and Fu Luo nodded with relief after hearing his words.
"I believe you, Arthur."
Although they were already far away from the corpses, Fu Luo still called Lin Yu "Arthur" out of caution because he didn't know the extent of the monitoring capabilities of the mastermind behind the scenes.
After all, Fu Luo had also heard the conversation between Lin Yu and the guy who was most likely the mastermind and had borrowed Captain Gao Shan's body.
He heard that the mastermind behind the scenes probably mistook Lin Yu for another "player" or "Schreber".
Fu Luo naturally knew something about this name, so when he heard that the mastermind behind the scenes had identified Lin Yu as "Schreber", although Fu Luo remained calm on the surface, he was actually very happy in his heart.
After all, the other party recognized the wrong person, which meant that if their group had a smooth journey this time and found the answers they wanted in the wasteland and left this world, the other party's next targeted deployment would most likely not be against Lao Lin, but against "Schreber"!
As for why the other party had this misunderstanding, Fu Luo felt it was reasonable - after all, if Lin Yu hadn't told him in advance, Fu Luo felt it would be difficult for him to connect the "Director Arthur" in front of him with Lin Yu.
Thinking of this, Fu Luo couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"As expected of the 'Best Actor', his improvisation and acting were flawless, with hardly any flaws to be found."
Of course, what Fu Luo didn't know was...
"Schreber" is indeed one of Lin Yu's identities.
Lin Yu's acting skills were even more flawless than he had imagined.
However, Lin Yu himself did not feel anything. After all, for him, relying on his superb acting skills, he made the mastermind connect "Arthur" and "Schreber" without any difficulty from beginning to end. It was completely expected that it would be achieved.
Therefore, Lin Yu is now more concerned about...
"Where is Huo Ming in the Nevernight Sky?"
Although the explosion was very intense and powerful, killing most people in the outpost at the time, judging from the fact that some people were still wailing, many people survived!
And the survivors...
Thinking and analyzing from a rational perspective, if we don’t consider your location when the explosion occurs, the better the equipment you wear and the stronger your own strength, the easier it is to survive.
As a royal noble and the highest leader of the Truth Company in the Great Wilderness, Huo Ming of Bu Ye Tian is very powerful, and the equipment she wears and the means of life-saving she possesses are naturally the best.
Therefore, as long as there are still living people in the ruins of this outpost, the probability that Huo Ming of Nevernight is still alive is very high!
But Lin Yu has not yet discovered the figure of Buyetian Huoming. He and Lao Zheng's mental scans have completely covered the entire outpost, but they can't feel any mental fluctuations belonging to Buyetian Huoming.
Looking at it from the most optimistic perspective, the only possibility is that Huo Ming of Nevernight was temporarily knocked unconscious and into shock - after all, in that situation, a person's mental fluctuations would become very weak and difficult to detect.
And another possibility... is that Huo Ming of Buyetian is really dead.
"Please don't let anything happen, the nightless sky is bright..."
Lin Yu muttered to himself and started scanning further.
Still nothing.
After the scan yielded no results, Old Zheng offered a new hypothesis: "Boss, is it possible... if Bu Ye Tian Huo Ming handled the explosion more calmly than we imagined, suffering only minor injuries that wouldn't affect her movements, or perhaps no injuries at all, that she might have already left the scene to pursue the killer or moved elsewhere to avoid further harm, thus out of our range of perception?"
When Lin Yu heard what Lao Zheng said, he sighed: "I hope so... But even so, we have to find Huo Ming in the Nevernight Sky as soon as possible!"
As long as Huo Ming of Buyetian is still alive, everything will be fine!
At this moment, Buyetian Huoxing suddenly spoke.
"I seem to have sensed the direction of Huo Ming in Nevernight Sky... I know where she might be!"
As Buyetian Huoxing spoke, he pointed to the outpost that had become ruins.
"She's still in the outpost—in that collapsed building. We have to dig down!"
Huo Xing's tone became more and more determined.
"How did you know?"
Although Lin Yu asked about the reason why Buyetian Huoxing was so "sure", he actually did not doubt Buyetian Huoxing's statement at all. After Buyetian Huoxing opened his mouth, he immediately started to head towards the collapsed ruins.
Nevernight Fire Apricot also explained, "Because there are very unusual fluctuations in alchemical life energy here—the fluctuations and energy diffusion are very small. It's normal that you haven't noticed it, except for alchemical geniuses like me. This alchemical creation seems to be some kind of advanced life-saving method, and it has also taken into account the concealment after activation."
"And as far as I know, there aren't many people in the Great Wilderness who can afford this kind of advanced alchemical creation, which is mostly disposable. Huo Ming from the Nightless Sky is one of them."
"It's even very likely that he's the only one in the Great Wilderness!"
As Huo Xing of Buyetian was speaking, Lin Yu had already started digging at the ruins.
With his bare hands, he broke up and moved away the concrete blocks of the collapsed abandoned building, gradually revealing a triangular space underneath.
At the same time, Lin Yu also gradually felt the subtle "alchemical energy" that Buyetian Huoxing mentioned, which seemed to be able to hide its own existence.
Soon, under the ruins, a huge white "eggshell"-like cocoon appeared from below.
Lin Yu used his mental power to test it and found that his mental power could not penetrate it - this hard callus seemed to have the effect of isolating all detection capabilities.
Even the probing techniques from another world's power system were now rejected - the "hiding" and "anti-spying" attributes seemed to be created by some kind of rules.
But no matter what, Lin Yu is now more convinced of what Huo Xing said...
Judging from the magical degree of this thing, there are definitely no more than a handful of people in the entire wilderness who can afford to use it.
And since such a thing appeared in the ruins of this outpost, its owner was almost certain...
It must be Huo Ming from the Nevernight Sky himself!
After clearing away the gravel covering the callus, a clean and smooth white oval callus containing strange energy appeared in front of Lin Yu.
"So the question is, how do I open it?"
Lin Yu looked at the Buyetian Fire Apricot.
Huo Xing spread out his hands, shook his head, and said, "I don't know either. I've never seen this kind of product. I can only confirm that it's probably a product of the 'Divine Power Group'... Although many nobles in Nevernight City have their own life-saving methods, the one used by Huo Ming is so typical of the Great Wilderness—it completely disregards aesthetics and convenience, and is purely for the purpose of saving lives."
"I've never seen anything like it – to be honest, I'm not even sure if it has a way to be opened from the outside."
When Lin Yu heard what Buyetian Huoxing said, he nodded slightly.
He had already anticipated Buyetian Huoxing's answer.
"In that case, I'll have to try to open it."
Lin Yu said, and took out from his arms...
【Torch of Fear】.
"bass!"
Pale flames rose up, and Buyetian Huoxing was stunned.
"Hey, what are you planning to do with this torch?"
She looked at Lin Yu in surprise.
Lin Yu was very calm: "This 'torch' can release 'fear' energy... and from what I know and observe, any alchemical active energy will be burned up when it encounters fear emotional energy."
"So... even though I don't understand the principles of this alchemical creation, at least I can destroy it."
Huo Xing from the Nevernight Sky looked thoughtful: "Good idea, but what if it fails?"
Lin Yu said as a matter of course: "Then let's try another method. I still have an [unstable phlogiston gas tank] here, which contains the same phlogiston gas that you released into the venue at your birthday party last time. Although the explosion just now didn't seem to destroy this 'cocoon', we can see if the phlogiston gas can do it."
Huo Xing curled her lips and said, "You misunderstood, Arthur. When I said 'failure', I didn't mean you 'couldn't open it'... I meant, what if you burned or exploded my dear sister Huo Ming in there? What if this thing can't be opened by force now?"
Lin Yu thought for a moment and said, "That's my bad luck."
Buyetian Huoxing thought for a moment, then gave a thumbs-up: "Very good, very aware - then go ahead and do it!"
"I believe your enlightenment will be responded to by the God of Alchemy and Miracles!"
The Nightless Sky Fire Apricot encouraged Lin Yu.
After Huo Xing finished speaking, Lin Yu also raised the [Torch of Fear] and prepared to move closer to the cocoon.
And when Lin Yu started to act without hesitation...
Before the torch got close, the cocoon began to tremble on its own.
Then...
The originally smooth and seamless hard cocoon shell cracked into a neat gap that ran through the beginning and end, and then slowly opened to both sides.
Buyetian Huoming sat up from the cocoon and looked at Buyetian Huoxing and Lin Yu, his face looking a little weak.
She sighed and spoke.
"Are you really here to help me? You're not here to finish me off, are you?"
