Chapter 412: Chapter 412 The Sound of Fireworks_1

Feng Yuan stood in place, looking at Qi Chen with some confusion.

"What’s wrong?"

"Wait a moment, I’ll go with you later."

Qi Chen was still not very reassured about Feng Yuan. After all, those fireworks were modified from bombs. If Feng Yuan messed around and blew something up, it would be troublesome.

"No need, I can handle it by myself~"

"I didn’t say you couldn’t handle it, I’m worried you’ll cause some chaos again."

Qi Chen glanced at Feng Yuan and said. He really didn’t trust Feng Yuan, especially this childish version of him. If he started causing trouble, Qi Chen felt a headache coming on.

"Tch, am I really that unreliable?"

Feng Yuan, dissatisfied, sat on the sofa watching the two cleaning up. After a while, Qi Chen clapped his hands and said,

"Let’s go, work on your fireworks."

"Fireworks? I’ve bought quite a lot of high-end fireworks~"

Kang Ping seemed to remember something, walked over to a bag, and started pulling out fireworks. Qi Chen, veins popping and fuming, said,

"Kang Ping! That’s the kitchen door, isn’t it?"

"What about it?"

"Do you want to blow up something, placing the fireworks in such a dangerous place?"

Qi Xiaoshuang watched Kang Ping speechlessly. Although the kitchen stove was a certain distance from the kitchen door, the living room was so big, she couldn’t understand why Kang Ping insisted on moving the fireworks to a relatively dangerous spot with such effort.

"Isn’t this to prove that high-end fireworks are safe~"

"Idiot! Even the high-end fireworks will explode if they encounter fire!"

Listening to Qi Chen scolding Kang Ping, Feng Yuan smiled and petted Pomiti in his arms. After a while, Kang Ping walked to the door dejectedly with the fireworks. Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan and said,

"Let’s go, set off your fireworks. Xiao Shuang, are you coming?"

Qi Xiaoshuang thought for a moment and followed the three out of the house.

"Is this really fireworks?"

Looking at the crystalline, gem-like objects in Feng Yuan’s hands and then at his own beautifully packaged fireworks, Kang Ping was puzzled. Feng Yuan smiled and said,

"Of course~"

"How do you plan to control the explosion location of the fireworks?"

Seeing Feng Yuan carelessly placing the crystals on the ground, Qi Chen had a bad feeling. Feng Yuan clapped his hands and said with a smile,

"Of course, by using spiritual power to control it~"

"Don’t blow up someone else’s house, okay?"

"Don’t worry~ That won’t happen~"

"Are we setting them off now?"

Kang Ping asked Qi Chen as he heard fireworks from afar. Feng Yuan waved his hand, and a virtual clock appeared in the air. Seeing it display 11:53 pm, Feng Yuan said,

"Of course, we’ll wait until the last minute to set them off~"

The sound of fireworks around them grew louder, and Feng Yuan chatted with everyone while waiting for the New Year to arrive. Qi Chen’s mother and aunt, who had already boiled the dumplings and placed them on the table, came to the door and looked at the four people in the distance, smiling. Najia held the jade pendant tightly, sitting atop Big Cat and tightened her Ritual Robe against the night’s cold wind.

"It’s time~"

As the time reached 11:59:50 pm, Feng Yuan activated the crystals with a smile, and Kang Ping hurriedly ignited the fuse. The next moment, Kang Ping’s fireworks were the first to soar into the sky. The explosion effect of the high-end fireworks was significantly better than those of ordinary fireworks, but unfortunately, amidst the myriad of fireworks, this slight advantage was not very noticeable.

When the time hit midnight exactly, the crystals that Feng Yuan had set down exploded fiercely, sending pillars of light directly into the sky. They burst into magnificent patterns that enveloped the entire Maomu City, the patterns flickering like fireworks and then going out, only to burst into new patterns the next moment.

Qi Chen said speechlessly to Feng Yuan,

"Your fireworks have quite a large range, don’t they."

"Of course~ How else to outshine everyone else’s fireworks~"

Looking at the gigantic fireworks, Qi Chen didn’t know what to say. The vast array of interconnected patterns instantly made all the other fireworks seem like mere embellishments. Agunas’s spiritual image flicked its tail as if remembering something and asked,

"Did you get it cleared with the authorities?"

"What clearance?"

"That thing’s energy fluctuations are pretty big."

Agunas’s spiritual image looked up at the sky. Qi Chen’s face turned somewhat grim as he stared at Feng Yuan.

"The fireworks are pretty nice; I’ll record them and tell Tianxing about it once we get back~"

Yao Yin, with a flushed face, was recording the huge fireworks in the sky when Guo Huai, looking puzzled, said

"That’s odd, I didn’t hear about any fireworks display."

"And those fireworks seem a bit off."

Yao Yin, staring at the splendid sky, said

"It should just be a fireworks display. Maybe it’s a surprise for you guys. After all, even here, they probably wouldn’t allow the use of large-scale spells in the city willy-nilly, right?"

Agunas, flicking his tail in speechlessness, said

"That’s Feng Yuan’s doing."

Yao Yin looked at Agunas with uncertainty, and Guo Huai asked with some confusion

"He’s not going to cause any trouble by doing this, is he?"

"It shouldn’t. The Crystalline Bombs I gave him to make the fireworks are just that—fireworks. Even though they emit a high energy response, there shouldn’t be any problem."

"Crystalline Bombs..."

Guo Huai looked at Agunas speechlessly; he really hadn’t expected the Little Crocodile to have such terrifying things.

"Exactly what’s going on!"

Captain Yan, receiving the alert, hurried to the duty room where the on-duty staff were nervously checking various readings and saying

"An unknown force has suddenly enveloped Maomu City, and at present, we have no idea what the intention is."

"The City Defense System is ready to go. No signs of attack have been detected yet. Should we forcibly activate the defense system?"

"We’re analyzing the operation mode of the force, trying to identify the type of attack, but we can’t match it to any common types."

Hearing the reports from the on-duty staff, Captain Yan thought for a moment and said

"Can we locate the source of the attack?"

"Yes, although the precision isn’t very high, it’s roughly in this area."

At that moment, a special forces member rushed in from the door, panting and saying

"Don’t... know... which bastard! Actually dared to make... fireworks with energy bombs!"

"Take a breath first."

Captain Yan said calmly to the special forces member, but his clenched fist revealed his inner unrest.

"How do you know the fireworks were made with energy bombs? Maybe it’s an ultimate technique or something."

"Oh come on~ let me tell you..."

As Captain Yan pushed open the door, the people in the small office, who were happily chatting, suddenly fell as silent as if their throats were being squeezed. Glancing at everyone, Captain Yan calmly said

"It’s okay. It was already wrong needing you to be on duty during New Year’s. Just follow previous years’ routine."

"Liao Yu, how did you know those fireworks were made with energy bombs?"

Seeing Captain Yan addressing him, Liao Yu proudly said

"It’s what Feng Yuan taught me before~ including how to identify sources of explosions and so on..."

Listening to Liao Yu’s lengthy explanation, Captain Yan also realized why, of so many people, only Liao Yu could have thought it might be Crystalline Bombs. As for Feng Yuan, who seemed to know everything, Captain Yan wasn’t sure how to deal with him, especially since if Feng Yuan truly wanted to do anything, they probably wouldn’t even notice it themselves.

After being alerted, the duty room quickly determined that the mysterious energy enveloping Maomu City was from Crystalline Bombs, but why it appeared in the form of fireworks was beyond their analysis.

Just as Captain Yan was about to call the team to check the source of the attack, he grabbed a piece of paper that appeared out of nowhere. After looking at it for a while, a vein popped on his forehead as he struggled to contain his anger and said

"There’s no need to go!"

"What’s going on?"

"The other party forgot to file a notice, but Divine Beasts have assured there is no ill intent."

Liao Yu immediately knew who was responsible for the huge fireworks, for in all of Maomu City, only one person would fit these conditions.

"You sure had it tough."

Glancing at Agunas, who had just finished writing something and closed his book, Yao Yin said somewhat helplessly. Having spent time with Feng Yuan, she naturally understood how vexing that guy could be with his thick skin, especially since his power was so strong, making his ability to cause trouble much greater than others.

Agunas flicked his tail and said

"It’s just a trifle—just that the guy forgot to file a notice, that’s all."
