Chapter 381: Chapter 173 Divine Grace Acquired, Cat Step Light Charm!_3

Lin Baici was originally observing the military dagger with the intention of testing its sharpness. Startled by the comment, he almost threw it away.

The plague is a Class A contagious disease that killed tens of millions in medieval Europe and was known as the Black Death.

"What’s wrong?"

Seeing Lin Baici so nervous, Xia Hongyao also became immediately cautious.

"A military dagger that can spread the plague!"

Lin Baici took a box out of the Black Tripod Bowl and placed the dagger inside it.

"When we get back this time, can you prepare ten or twenty black coffins for me?"

Objects like the Songmu torches and Herbal Putian, even if they cause rule contamination, wouldn’t have too large of a spread and would not pose a great risk.

But if this dagger was mishandled by Lin Baici, or if he intended to cause harm, it could easily start an epidemic among the general population.

"Alright!"

Xia Hongyao made an OK gesture with her hand.

Lin Baici took out some bread and mineral water and distributed it to everyone: "Let’s take a break for now!"

It seemed that today was going to be a battle of endurance.

This museum, just recently turned into God’s ruins, had already subjected Lin Baici and his group to four types of rule contamination: the Rolling Stones of Death, the Mummy’s Return, the Flesh Curse, and the Catwoman’s Life-Claiming Puzzle. Who knew what would come next?

Truly, gods were as terrifying as this.

After Kim Myungjin absorbed Divine Grace and became a God Hunter, his physique was enhanced and his resistance to radiation in God’s ruins greatly increased.

Ordinary people, not so much.

Lin Baici originally planned to rest for fifteen minutes, but among the common people, the mild cases were dizzy, occasionally vomiting, and a few severe cases were already swollen.

If they didn’t leave God’s ruins soon, even without rule contamination, they would become dead meat under the radiation.

"Let’s go!"

Lin Baici stood up: "Those of you feeling unwell, find a place to hide!"

"No, we will follow you!"

"Lin God, don’t leave us behind!"

"Please!"

Thinking that Lin Baici was regarding them as a burden and intended to abandon them, the uncomfortable ones became panicked.

"Suit yourselves!"

Lin Baici led the team, following the sensation of hunger, and continued to search for the god.

...

Two kilometers away from the museum, Xia Hongmian stood on the street, looking at the building enveloped in black fog.

"Director, the Mirage system has been deployed and the nearby traffic has been controlled. A preliminary assessment suggests that someone has activated God’s bones within the museum. The current level of pollution is 9.0. Should we evacuate the nearby residents?"

The head of the intelligence department was sweating profusely.

At first, when the rule contamination erupted, everyone thought it was caused by some Taboo thing since there was no detection of a meteorite impact. But soon, the intelligence department noticed something was wrong.

The radiation from this museum was too strong, and there were multiple sources of contamination.

It must be some terrorist organization planning mischief.

"No need to evacuate!"

After saying that, Xia Hongmian walked towards the mist.

The nearby staff, upon seeing this, instantly perked up.

Was Director Xia going to take action?

It was said that ever since the appearance of God’s ruins, she was the strongest God Hunter of the Nine States Security Bureau, and some even claimed Xia Hongmian had surpassed Dragon Level.

In any case, since her debut, Xia Hongmian had never been defeated, even single-handedly taking down a major God’s ruins that existed for fifteen years.

Xia Hongmian walked a few steps and, not hearing any further reports, frowned slightly: "What about the other situations?"

"Uh!"

The head of the Intelligence Department suddenly felt a tightening on his scalp and hurriedly followed, "Section Nine has already entered God’s ruins, and Captain Xia Hongyao, who is in charge of museum security, is also among them."

"In addition, Lin Baici, the one you told us to closely monitor, came to the museum today with two female friends to see the exhibition."

Xia Hongmian knew about the task she had arranged for her sister in the museum and wanted to remark, was her sister’s luck particularly bad lately?

But after hearing the name Lin Baici, she suddenly felt that it shouldn’t be her sister’s fault.

"Section Six, Section Five have arrived!"

The middle-aged Intelligence Department Chief was somewhat balding.

"Tell them to stand by on the spot and urge Section Two and Three to hurry up!"

Xia Hongmian instructed.

Entering this kind of ruin, without the people from the first three sections, was almost like sending them to their deaths.

Xia Hongmian’s steps were steady as she walked into the dark fog, and her view suddenly changed.

She activated a Divine Grace.

A ring of invisible ripples immediately spread out from her as the center, radiating in all directions.

Mirror-like Calm!

Wherever the ripples spread, the situation there was all reflected back to her.

There is a strong radiation at 10 o’clock!

Xia Hongyao took a step, preparing to head there, but after a couple of steps, she stopped and turned, heading to the right instead.

There, a group of civilians was suffering from rule pollution.

The pollution radiation wasn’t strong and, in keeping with her usual character, Xia Hongmian would definitely not have intervened.

Xia Hongmian appeared to be walking step by step, but with each step she took, she would end up in a location far away.

...

"What the hell are these stones?"

"Mommy, I don’t want to be crushed to death!"

"Help!"

The crowd was in utter panic; they dared not run because if they did, the boulders would chase after whoever fled, but if they didn’t run, every few minutes the boulders would roll, and anyone crushed by them would end up as if painted on the ground.

Only a face would remain on the boulder.

Soon, it was time for the boulders to start rolling again.

"Mommy!"

A little girl screamed, "It’s coming!"

"Don’t be afraid, mommy will protect you!"

The woman, holding her daughter, ran desperately, but the boulder was too fast, and with everyone in such a panic, she got knocked over by a man running wildly without looking.

Just as the boulder was about to crush her, a young woman with a light red ponytail and dark circles under her eyes suddenly appeared in front of the mother and daughter.

The young mother saw that the woman snapped her fingers with her right hand.

Snap!

The rapidly rolling boulder, as if hit by a nuclear strike, exploded with a bang into a cloud of dust.

Xia Hongmian looked down at the small stones on the ground, mixed with a few coins.

It seemed the way to pass this rule pollution was to grab the coins!

Xia Hongyao had no interest in picking stuff up; she looked around and after glancing at those boulders, she snapped her fingers.

Snap!

Those rolling boulders all exploded with continuous bangs into thoroughly shattered dust.
