Here, the Lord said this is a good thing

At Ye He's signal, the Apostle of Destruction also left.

Only Yehe and Eros were left here. The night was still long, and Yehe had plenty of time and mood to wait for Eros to make a decision.

“Crack, splash…”

A sound of something climbing up came from the "gap" next to it, and soon a "skull" emerged from the edge of the gap.

These are the monsters in the "forbidden zone" that have lost their humanity. They crawled up from underground along the gap where there are no restrictions.

After discovering the flesh-and-blood bodies of Yehe and Eros, the skull subconsciously stretched out its hands towards them and began to crawl towards them.

Ye He noticed the complicated look that Oros had on the skull. There were more similar skulls crawling out behind it.

Perhaps there are her companions here?

Unfortunately, it is impossible for a person who has turned into a skeleton to return to his original state.

Their souls are dead.

All that was left was a corpse that was still alive and moving.

"I can tell you the location of the old research institute, but I want you to promise me that no matter what you see or discover there... please don't let anything that moves leave there."

Eros finally made up his mind, Yehe also smiled, raised his foot and crushed a skull that had just crawled to his feet.

Their brain tissue had turned into a black, rancid liquid that looked familiar to Ye He. He took a closer look...

Isn’t this the “black water” controlled by the Lord of Corruption?

It's just mixed with water, without the evil god-like polluting "black water".

Even if the soul is dead and the "power" has been corrupted, can it still remain in the material world?

Ye He became interested in the situation in the restricted area. He felt that he might be able to find some way to restrain the Lord of Corruption from Eros' experience?

It just so happens that Moriarty is sharing the power of the Lord of Corruption as the Lord of Corruption's apostle.

Perhaps this method can also be used to restrain Moriarty?
"I promised you! Let's go."

"You're going now?"

Eros was frightened by Yehe's sudden departure.

"Of course not," Ye He shook his head at her:

"I have something else to do here, so I'll need to stay for a few days... Let me settle you down first, and then you can tell me what's going on."

Looking in the direction that Ye He's finger was pointing, Eros saw the restricted area under the "gap".

Her face turned ugly as she recalled where that place was, but she had discovered that Ye He was a man of his word, so she did not resist Ye He's suggestion and obediently followed Ye He to leave.

As soon as they left, Doomsday in the sky fired another laser downwards.

After a brief flash, all the skeletons that were crawling out turned into nothingness.

The "gap" on the ground suddenly expanded several times, and soon the entire block began to collapse due to the disappearance of the load-bearing columns.

In the end, all that was left here was a huge basin that was dozens of meters deep.

Yehe not only flattened the federal research institute, but also hollowed out the area.

"What should we do? The boss was taken away by Ye He!"

"What are you talking about! The boss just left with Ye He... It seems that Ye He did rescue the boss, but he actually still needs the boss's help?"

"Well... what I'm asking is what should we do now? Should we go after them and rescue the boss?"

"Okay, okay, go ahead. When you are crushed to death by Ye He, the boss and I won't feel bad."

"asshole!"

The two quarreling figures quickly moved away and soon disappeared in the city of Salzburg without a trace.

Some thugs who were lucky enough not to be injured by the ground collapse are trying to climb out of the edge of the basin.

When they returned to the normal street and looked back with the help of the moonlight to observe the exaggerated sinkhole, they suddenly smiled together and left happily.

It seems that the "carnival" is not over yet, and tonight is just a small episode that Yehe presents to this city.

As for those people who were rescued from the restricted area by Yehe together with Eros, after discovering that the city of Salzburg had really become a chaotic place with no civilians as Yehe said, they immediately joined the carnival.

Those desires that had not had enough energy to be realized and satisfied suddenly burst out in their hearts.

A lady passed by a deserted clothing store. She looked at the mannequin in the window and suddenly stretched out her hand, causing the entire window to "evaporate"!
But she just took off a scarf from the model's neck and put it around her own neck.

This was the only piece of clothing she liked. Even though she was still naked after she recovered like everyone else, she was unwilling to compromise her own preferences.

Another gentleman had just arrived in Salzburg when he was stopped at the entrance of an alley by an arm holding a complete suit.

"Homeowner?"

The gentleman looked at the owner of the arm, Hitchock Vongola, in surprise.

"Long time no see, Rambo."

Hitchock also smiled at the other person, but his smile gradually became bitter.

As Rambo silently put on his clothes, Hitchock's smile became even uglier.

"Rambo...I didn't mean to not save you..."

"No need to explain, Patriarch, really."

Rambo tied his tie skillfully and smiled at Hitchock:

"You can't leave that hell once you're here... If that man hadn't rescued me, I don't think I would have been able to hold out for much longer."

"……Um."

"Patriarch, who is he?"

Rambo recalled Ye He surrounded by the Apostles of Destruction. When he was brought out by Cornitz with a hurricane and saw Ye He for the first time, he suddenly felt like he saw Hitchock.

His intuition told him that Ye He and Hitchock should be the same person, but Ye He was able to destroy the city and rescue him easily...Ye He should be even more powerful than Hitchock.

"Him? Are you talking about Ye He? Oh no..."

Hitchock held his forehead and shook his head, then introduced Rambo in an almost desperate tone:
"We now call him Father Destruction, a man who can fool the gods into not dying and play with the existence of the world in his hands...

Not understanding him and not getting close to him is the greatest "responsibility" for your own life and safety. Do you understand what I mean?"

“…I think I understand.”

Rambo finally put a hat on his head and returned to his appearance before he was captured and taken into the restricted area.

The Vongola family's top thug, known as the "black-gloved beast", who successfully murdered a federal president.

However, there was a subtle expression on the face of this "ferocious beast" at this moment.

Because through Hitchock's "Despair", he has discovered a "fact" that needs no further explanation.

"Are you... an enemy of the 'Priest of Destruction' whom you just introduced?"

Hitchock's body visibly stiffened, stretching the wrinkles on the waist of his shirt. "...I'm already trying to make him feel that I'm not his enemy anymore."

"Did you succeed?"

"……do not know."

"Good luck."

"……Thanks."

……

Humans like Rambo and the "shopping" lady, who were only locked up in the restricted area for a short time, quickly readjusted to modern life.

But some people have been locked up in the restricted area for almost as long as the history of this research institute.

For example, Eros who left with Ye He, and the other two gentlemen besides Rambo.

The two men were walking together on the streets of Salzburg, the midnight moonlight falling on their restored skin and illuminating their confused souls.

"Where are you going?"

One of them was a thin, gentle-looking gentleman, who asked the other gentleman, who was tall and strong with particularly thick body hair.

"Let's go back to the tribe and check. I don't know if it's still there, but I'm going to go back and check."

The positions of the moon and stars allowed the homesick gentleman to clearly identify east, south, west and north.

His eyes also looked towards the night sky in the north, which was the direction of his tribe and his home.

“Going home…it’s not a small thing.

This city should be special. The power of the Federation... was eliminated from this city by that man, and he rewrote this place with his own rules.

Is he planning to make this his lair, his hunting ground? To attract attention... to distract attention... but ultimately to kill people."

"It's normal to prepare a suitable hunting ground in advance. He made me see the stars again. If he wants to kill someone, I will help him."

What is surprising is that these two gentlemen come from different times, different regions, and have completely different levels of cultural education...

They actually discovered Ye He’s true purpose at the same time!

"I will too... maybe you can ask him for some more help with your plan to go home? I also want him to help me a little more."

"Help him kill someone first."

"Right."

The two gentlemen, who were actually nearly a hundred years old, ended their conversation and went deeper into Salzburg together.

They decided to repay Ye He and help Ye He kill people, but please note that they did not consider Ye He's opinion when making this decision.

Moreover, they have already figured out what kind of reward they should get from Ye He after "helping" Ye He.

The passing of time did not affect their vision, allowing them to quickly determine Ye He's true purpose from what they saw and heard.

But the passing of time has not broadened their horizons, and they don't even know what the current era is like.

They just felt that since they, as strong men, had escaped together, the Federation would no longer be able to restrict them or capture them again.

Apart from the fact that they are unable to face up to the differences between themselves and Ye He due to ignorance, there is actually nothing wrong with their thinking.

Not to mention Rambo who has been taken away by Hitchock, there is also the lady who is still wandering in front of the store at night, doing her own thing.

Including these two gentlemen who have been forgotten by the times, they and several other ladies, after feeling the air of freedom, immediately began to prepare for revenge against the Federation!
Two ladies who were also rescued by Ye He and recovered their health did not stay in Salzburg for long and quietly left the city under the cover of night.

In the early morning of the next day, an abnormal weather phenomenon occurred in another federal city north of Salzburg, where frogs fell from the sky.

Yes, you heard it right, frogs are falling from the sky!

But these are certainly no ordinary frogs.

These creatures look exactly like frogs, but have a pair of short horns protruding from the skin on their heads. They are as big as domestic dogs.

They fell into the city along with the heavy rain, and almost none of them died directly from the fall. Instead, they quickly wandered around the streets and alleys of the city.

Their "huge" bodies give them unparalleled jumping power, allowing them to walk on flat ground in this steel jungle.

Their slippery skin is covered in a layer of highly toxic mucus, that's enough.

The point is that they also like to hunt with their tongues, which can be easily launched more than ten meters away and are strong enough to penetrate steel plates.

What to hunt...no need to explain more, right?

Another big city south of Salzburg turned into ruins with many glaciers overnight.

Yes, you heard it right, "glacier"!
Those rows of solid ice that destroyed buildings, tore apart living things and froze them to death, each of them being dozens of meters high, what else could they be but glaciers?
From the survivors who ran fast, we learned that a giant beast with a pair of antlers and a huge eyeball attacked the city early last morning.

Its body is covered with white hair, and it is invulnerable to swords and spears, and has infinite strength. Neither the strange abilities of the monster users nor the primitive siege equipment of the city defense army can cause any harm to it.

Over 200 meters tall, it can bring down a frozen building simply by walking through the city.

And it seems that it is inherently dissatisfied with these man-made buildings or facilities that are full of the crystallization of human civilization's knowledge.

If humans who did not attack it simply run away, it will not pursue them, but will focus on continuing to destroy the crystallization of civilization.

Of course, humans who tried to attack it were not so lucky.

It only needs to smash its claws down, and the glaciers rising from the ground will freeze those mortal insects to death.

"Wendigo! That's the legendary ghost Wendigo! And it's the kind that's magnified a hundred times!"

That's what the survivors said.

……

"It's only... one night..."

Moriarty looked at the "disaster statistics report" on the table with some despair.

He pulled out the piece of paper at the bottom and read again the personal information about the people in the restricted area of ​​the research institute that Gustav had passed to him:

[M00-Artificial Goddess]

【M06-Chieftain】

【M08-Innovator】

【M11-Free Woman】

[M30-Frog Witch]

[M42-Lord of the Snow Mountain]

[M99-Black Gloves Beast]

...These are the dangerous beings who have been confirmed by Moriarty to be still alive and were released from the restricted area by Ye He.

Two of them have even begun to retaliate against the Federation!
