Ultra: Dragon Sword Journey

Chapter 536: Feudal Superstition is Unacceptable

When Liang saw Zhao Ming's figure slowly emerge from the corridor of the research institute, her eyes instantly shone brightly. Her heart, which had been hanging in the air for a long time, finally settled back into her stomach.

Mo Zhi's terrifying appearance and strange teleportation abilities left even this woman, known for her toughness and courage, feeling a lingering sense of dread. If she hadn't been wearing her Saisha armor, she might have been consumed by the fear.

As the dazzling flames flashed across their bodies, the Saisha armor on their bodies automatically disintegrated into a stream of light that hid on the back of their left hands. Liang immediately walked quickly to Zhao Ming, her eyes filled with surprise and admiration.

Zhao Ming looked slightly exhausted. Just now, manipulating the immense power of heaven and earth to destroy the demon beast Mo Zhi had consumed a great deal of his energy. He hadn't expected this demon beast to actually know how to overcome it. If he had known, he would have simply switched to Xingtian Armor and fought it!

"You...you did it!" Liang's excited voice echoed in the slightly empty corridor, as if expressing her inner admiration for Zhao Ming.

Zhao Ming nodded slightly, a faint smile on his face. "Although it was a bit tricky, I have completely eliminated the monster."

Liang breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling relieved that she had survived. She looked around and saw that the corridors of the institute were filled with traces of the battle with Mozhi. The walls and floors were covered with damage and burn marks caused by the battle with the monster.

The ground was littered with various items left behind by the researchers when they hurriedly evacuated. It was a mess, as if the place had just experienced a terrible disaster.

Zhao Ming looked at Liang and asked with concern, "How is Dr. Ayano doing now?"

Liang breathed a sigh of relief. "Luckily, we arrived in time. Ayano-senpai was just a little frightened. However, in her hasty escape, she accidentally tripped and injured her leg. I just contacted the medical center urgently, and they have sent Ayano-senpai for treatment."

Liang's tone revealed a hint of relief, as if she was very satisfied with the result. After she finished speaking, she gently kissed Zhao Ming on the cheek to express her gratitude.

This sudden kiss caught Zhao Ming off guard, but he quickly reacted and secretly rejoiced. After all, how could he easily let go of this "little lamb" who had come to him on his own initiative?

Zhao Ming seized this opportunity and took advantage of the fact that no one was around in the institute to block Liang's red lips and began to bite them to his heart's content. Liang obviously had not expected Zhao Ming to do this. He was a little surprised at first but was soon melted by Zhao Ming's enthusiasm and could not help but respond to his kiss.

Just as the two were immersed in the sweet atmosphere, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly sounded in the stairwell. Zhao Ming and Liang immediately realized that the Super Victory Team had arrived. They hurriedly separated and frantically tidied up their messy clothes, trying to restore themselves to a decent appearance.

When Koda, Asuka, Nakajima, and Kariya hurried over, they were shocked by the scene before them - the originally neat and tidy research institute was now in a mess, but Liang and Zhao Ming were standing there waiting for them unharmed.

Seeing this, Koda couldn't help but give Zhao Ming a thumbs-up and said, "Boss, you guys are really fast! Judging from the situation, you should have successfully eliminated the monster, right?"

Liang smiled faintly and replied, "Yes, we have indeed eliminated the monster. In fact, it was Zhao Ming who used the prediction technique in Qimen Dunjia to detect the severity of the Mozhi incident in advance.

I received a call from Ayano-senpai on the way, and we rushed over without stopping. Fortunately, there were no casualties, and the monster was completely destroyed by us.

Fei Niao's curiosity was piqued. He quickly stepped forward and asked, "What's going on with this monster? How did it suddenly appear here?"

Ryosuke told everyone all the information about the bronze mirror and the monster Moshi that Dr. Ayano had discovered. It turned out that Moshi was a monster hidden in mythology that devoured people's fear, and the bronze mirror was used to seal it.

After listening to Liang's story, everyone was shocked by the horror and filth behind this mysterious story.

"I told you so," Asuka muttered with disdain, "It turns out Mozhi isn't a guardian angel at all! Throwing a stone and making a wish can win a battle? There's no such thing in the world!

"Captain, what a bunch of bullshit!" He glared at the others angrily, muttering to himself: During the previous discussion in the command room, he was the only one who questioned Mo Zhi's identity, but it was really depressing that these guys didn't support him.

Nakajima crossed his arms and said seriously, "So the so-called ice spring isn't actually spring water, it's this bronze mirror! And Moshi can also possess any mirrored object that can reflect an object in a strange way."

At this moment, Kariya suddenly pointed at the broken bronze mirror on the ground and asked in surprise, "Is this the mirror that sealed Moshi?"

"That's right," Liang continued, "After Ayano-senpai used a laser pointer to remove the bronze paint on the mirror's surface, the sealed Moshi was freed under the moonlight.

By deciphering the text, she discovered the truth behind the supposed wish that soldiers could win every battle. It was simply Mozhi brainwashing humans, turning them into robots controlled by him, devoid of emotion and capable only of killing.

Zhao Ming immediately gave the order: "Now that we've successfully eliminated the monster, the follow-up work here is left to you. Immediately gather all items related to Mo Zhi and these bronze mirror fragments in the research institute and thoroughly destroy them.

Remember, absolutely nothing should be left out! Once the cleanup is complete, restore the institute to normal operations."

"Understood!" Everyone answered in unison, and then quickly took action, each doing their own job.

Koda and Nakajima meticulously collected the fragments of the bronze mirror, carefully picking up each piece and placing it in a specially prepared container. Asuka and Kariya then went to every corner of the research institute, carefully checking every possible hidden danger to ensure that no dangerous items were missed.

Everyone worked until dawn, and after an all-night effort, they finally collected and destroyed all the bronze mirror fragments. Afterwards, they conducted a comprehensive inspection and cleanup of the institute to ensure that no safety hazards remained.

Soon after, the cleaned-up research center resumed normal operations. Having completed their mission, everyone felt relieved and joyfully returned to TPC headquarters aboard the Victory Condor.

In the command room of the Super Victory Team, Asuka approached Kihikosuke as soon as he returned and said with a smile, "Captain, this incident has taught us a good lesson! We must remember from now on that feudal superstitions are absolutely unacceptable."

After hearing Asuka's words, Xibi Gangzhu smiled helplessly, "Okay, I get it! This time it was indeed my fault for not thinking things through and jumping to conclusions without investigation. I will definitely pay attention next time."

At this time, Zhao Ming and Liang walked into the command room. Seeing them, Xibi Gangzhu immediately said, "Zhao Ming, Liang, thanks to your foresight, we were able to destroy the monster this time!"

Zhao Ming waved his hand modestly. "It's nothing to mention. I just had the urge to use the Postnatal Bagua Formation to deduce good and bad luck. It just so happens that Mo Zhi's strength hasn't fully recovered yet!"

"No matter what, the boss is still very amazing!" Everyone gave Zhao Ming a thumbs up. He really knows everything about astronomy, geography, divination, Qimen Dunjia, mechanical manufacturing, ancient and modern history, and various other skills...

I'll continue tomorrow after finishing two chapters. I'm looking for five-star reviews, updates, gifts, and support. Please...
