873 The terrifying waxwork museum
“This should be the place, right? the Druff waxwork museum?”
It was already late at night, and the gas lamps on the side of the road gave off a faint light. In the darkness, a swarm of mosquitoes flew around the light, like lonely dust. At this time, there were not many people on the street. Xia Pingan stood at the entrance of an alley, squinting his eyes as he sized up an old three-story building on the street in front of him.
The building must have been built for many years. It looked like a dilapidated factory. The metal frame sign of the Wax Museum hanging on the roof of the building was damaged and rusty. The words on the sign were badly corroded, and people could only barely make out the words on it. The dark red brick wall of the building was mottled, with many signs of smoke and fire, and some messy graffiti.
At the entrance of the waxwork museum, there was a sign hanging. The sign was like a withered branch and a Fallen Leaf in the dark. The sign had a few lines of words on it-entrance fee: 1 Ding Ning 5 Fanny.
It was a miracle that such a shabby Wax Museum had not closed down.
In Xia ping ‘an’s hand was the glass bottle that contained the corpse worm. The head of the corpse worm in the bottle was pointing at the waxwork museum. Just now, Xia ping’ an had already walked past the road next to the waxwork museum. The head of the corpse worm in the bottle had been changing according to Xia ping ‘an’s steps, like a probe attracted by a magnet, pointing at the waxwork museum all the time. This made Xia ping’ an know that this should be the place he was looking for, and that the stolen corpses were here.
The green-shirted Messenger had already flown out. Like a competent Scout, he flew around the Wax museum in the dark, allowing Xia Pingan to see the entire structure of the waxwork museum-the gate of the waxwork museum was tightly shut. Behind the gate was the building of the waxwork museum, and behind the building was a courtyard. There was a back door in the courtyard, which was covered with weeds. There was also a carriage and a stable.
There was a road in front of the waxwork museum, which was the one in front of him. On the side of the waxwork museum, there was a dark alley leading to the courtyard behind.
From the green-robed envoy’s point of view, there were people in the waxwork museum. The first and second floors of the waxwork museum were dark, but there was a room on the third floor that had a blurry light. He could even see a figure walking in the room.
This place might be a trap for the night watchmen and the investigation Bureau, because it was too easy to find this place. Xia Pingan was always vigilant about things that were too easy to get. It was also because of this that Xia Pingan observed for a long time and did not rush in rashly.
However, there was another possibility. This wasn’t a trap. He could use more than one secret method to lock onto this waxwork museum, but it might not be easy for other Summoners who couldn’t summon black dragons and didn’t have corpse tracking secret methods to lock onto this place. Moreover, for some ordinary people who had just mastered a little secret method, they knew nothing about the world and power of Summoners. These ordinary people who had just mastered a little secret method were like frogs in the well. He thought that he had already mastered the forbidden power and was blindly confident in his own power and secret technique.
Therefore, it was also possible that the people in the waxwork museum had stolen the body and secretly transported it to the waxwork museum. They felt that they were secretive and were not worried about being found-the carriage and stable in the backyard of the waxwork museum were just enough to transport the body.
After Xia Pingan observed for a while, he finally decided to go in and take a look. After all, he had already found this place. It was a little unreasonable for him to report to Mr. Coin just like that. His mission was not considered completed.
However, entering was one thing. Xia Pingan was very concerned about his own life. In line with the principle of not taking risks if he could, Xia Pingan gritted his teeth and looked at the divine power value in his secret mandala before starting to summon something.
Xia Pingan had gathered 55 points of divine power in the giant tower and 10 points in the temple, but he had used up 3 points, leaving him with 7 points. After merging with the two realm beads, the green-clothed emissary and Tao Hongjing had increased his divine power by 117 points. Together with the 300 divine crystals given by Mr. Coin, summoning the green-clothed emissary had cost him 45 points of divine power. So, he had a total of 434 points of divine power in the secret mandala.
With this godly power, he could summon something. No matter how precious godly power was, it was not as precious as his life.
As Xia ping ‘an began to summon, a cloud of black fog appeared in the alley behind him. The black fog was like a door. Then, a soldier of the Wei State, dressed in a Black warrior’s robe, was summoned by Xia ping’ an.
He didn’t know if it was the influence of the body of a God or the influence of becoming a Spirit Master, but when Xia Pingan used his divine power to cast the summoning technique, there was no fluctuation of divine power at all.
This summoned Wei soldier was nearly 1.9 meters tall. He had a strong body and a tough and stocky back. His face was as firm as a rock, but there was a hint of spirit in his eyes. Other Summoners might be able to summon such Warriors, but this Wei soldier’s spirit was something that other Summoners did not have. Because Xia Pingan was the Holy master, these Wei soldiers had been edified in the secret altar and had developed wisdom. They were absolutely different from the Warriors summoned by other Summoners.
The Wei soldiers were the world’s strongest Special Forces that were carefully selected and trained by Wuqi from the Wei Army during the spring and autumn Warring States period. Wuqi led the Wei soldiers to battle North and South, and achieved a great achievement of ’72 battles, 64 victories, and the rest were all lost’. They left a heavy mark in the history of human war, and even the strong Qin army was defeated by the Wei soldiers.
As soon as this soldier of Wei was summoned, he knelt down on one knee in front of Xia Pingan and said in a low voice, ” greetings, my Lord. May I have your name? ”
Looking at the 150 points of divine power that he had lost and the soldier of Wei State in front of him, Xia Pingan felt both heartache and relief. He said, ” your name will be Long Wu!
Dragon five cupped his fists and stood up. Xia Pingan looked at the remaining 384 points of divine power in the secret mandala. He gritted his teeth and put in another 360 points of divine power to summon the magic vine.
The black magic vine was like a black snake or a mutated earthworm. It drilled out of the mist behind Xia Pingan and directly sank into the ground without making a sound. Then, the black mist behind Xia Pingan slowly disappeared.
This demonic vine was something that Xia Pingan had been thinking about for a long time. The cost of using the earth escape technique in this world was too high, almost unbearable. However, the demonic vine originally lived underground and was not affected. As long as there was a place above the ground, the demonic vine could be useful. Moreover, this demonic vine had completed an evolution in the battle against the Golden Moon Hall Master. It could have many changes and could be used for many purposes.
If the soldiers of Wei State were the bodyguards and helpers on the surface, then the magic vine was a bodyguard and helper that could hide in the dark at any time. Moreover, the magic Vine’s whereabouts were more mysterious and unpredictable, and it was more useful. Although it consumed a lot of divine power, with the protection of the two layers of protection, as long as the magic vine and Dragon five were still built in the next year, Xia Pingan’s safety would be basically guaranteed. He could finally heave a sigh of relief.
The Black Dragon was good, but its specialty was not in combat, but in perception and tracking. In the current situation, there was not much divine power, so he could only summon something that he could use urgently.
In the blink of an eye, after completing these two summoning spells, Xia ping ‘an’s Secret mandala only had 24 points of divine power left. Xia ping’ an, who had just been able to cast eight small spells to protect himself and had just relaxed his divine power for two days, was once again ” penniless.
please don’t let me suffer a loss, ” Xia Pingan, who had completed the summoning, muttered to himself. He looked at the dark and empty streets around him, and his entire figure instantly disappeared into the darkness.
Two minutes later, Xia Pingan and Wei wuzu were already standing at the door of the backyard of the druffet waxwork museum. When the two of them arrived, a magical vine emerged from the ground of the courtyard. A vine extended over and wrapped itself around the locked door bolt. With a gentle pull, the door of the backyard opened silently.
Long Wu, the soldier of Wei, took out his knife and a shield. He was wearing a murderous rattan mask and was the first to enter the courtyard.
Xia ping ‘an followed Dragon five in. The moment he stepped over the threshold, Xia ping’ an summoned the night watchman’s equipment and put it on him. He was wearing a Black Mage robe, a pure silver Angel mask, combat boots, and a pair of blood-red gloves that looked like they were stained with blood. All the fallen creatures in the dark would be frightened by his outfit.
The angel mask and the blood-red gloves of the night watchmen both had a special meaning, which was the heart of an angel and the means of a devil.
From the moment she crossed the threshold, Xia Pingan’s identity was azheluo, the night watchman of the investigation Bureau.
The entire yard was filled with a pungent smell of plaster, wax, and burnt hair. This special smell was enough to cover the smell of the corpses.
Since they were already there, there was no need to be polite. Xia ping ‘an decided to go straight to the root of the problem. He and Dragon five went to the room on the second floor, where there was a shadow. Black vines extended from the ground, carrying Xia ping’ an and Dragon five along the wall to the window on the second floor. They could still see people walking through the window.
As Xia Pingan nodded at Dragon five, Dragon Five’s power burst out. He bent his body and kicked hard with his feet. His whole body shot out, and while he used the shield to protect his body, he smashed through the window on the second floor like a cannonball. He broke the window into pieces and rushed into the room. Xia Pingan stepped on the vine lightly, and there was a reaction from the vine. Xia Pingan followed Dragon five and flashed through the window.
The person in the room would never have expected someone to fall from the sky and rush out of the window on the third floor.
When Xia Pingan entered the room, he saw three people standing in front of a big pot. The big pot was placed in front of the fireplace in the room, and white wax-like things were boiling in the pot. Among the three people was a short old man with silver hair. His face was as dry as a skeleton. He stood next to the pot with a bottle in his hand, as if he was going to add something into the pot.
The other two men were grim-faced, brawny men. One of them was stirring a pot with a huge wooden stick, while the other was holding a human skull. Beside the pot was a complete human skeleton.
This room should be the place where they made the wax figures. There were strange wax figures everywhere in the room, and they looked gloomy. However, the wax figures they made did not seem to be ordinary wax figures because ordinary wax figures would not be made of human bones.
As soon as the old man saw the silver Angel mask on Xia Pingan’s face and the blood-red gloves on her hands, his expression changed drastically. He let out a scream of horror and could not help but step back.
As the old man retreated, the eyes of the two brawny men beside the pot turned red at once. Sharp fangs grew out of their mouths, and their muscles bulged instantly. With a ” Chi la ” sound, their clothes burst, and beast-like hair grew out of their bodies. They growled.
Dragon five had already pounced on the man. With a flash of his blade, he dodged the man’s sharp claws. A furry head flew off the head of a strong man.
As soon as the old man stepped back, Xia Pingan knew that he was the one. When Dragon five pounced on him, Xia Pingan’s hand moved and he took out a revolver.
That’s right, it was a pistol. Don’t underestimate this kind of gunpowder weapon. Most of the God’s chosen ones who had just become Summoners in this world were no different from ordinary people. A bullet could kill them.
The old man did not have the aura of a Summoner. At most, he was just a small shrimp who had mastered some evil spells that played with corpses. The silver-plated bullet could solve the problem, so there was no need to waste divine power.
“Kill him!” The old man screamed in fear.
bang, bang, bang. Xia Pingan opened fire. In the midst of the fire from the muzzle, a bullet accurately hit the old man’s forehead. The old man who wanted to retreat had his skull lifted up, and his brain spurted out. The old man fell to the ground in an instant.
Dragon Five’s formation was already engaged with the second one. The second one was strong, but his fighting skills were useless in front of Dragon five. The first one tried to lift the pot and smash it at Dragon five, but Dragon Five’s blade flashed, and the hand that was holding the pot was cut off.
Dragon five held his shield and rammed into the monster’s chest. Crack! The shield broke the monster’s chest. The monster fell back, spitting out blood. Dragon Five’s steps were erratic, but he followed the monster like a shadow. He thrust his sword through the gap between the shield and the chest of the monster. Then, he slashed at the monster’s heart. The monster’s upper body was almost cut open. The monster screamed and fell to the ground. The next second, Dragon Five’s second attack came and cut off the monster’s head.
The few wax figures in the room moved at this moment.
The wax figures were not very realistic to begin with. The two parts were stiff, and they were a little strange and ugly. When they moved, their movements were inevitably stiff, and there were plaster and wax pieces falling off their bodies. However, in the middle of the night, if ordinary people saw the moving wax figures, they would definitely be scared to death.
...
Without waiting for Xia Pingan’s order, Dragon five had already rushed toward the moving wax statues. His knife flashed like a waterfall, and with a single slash, he cut one of the wax statues in half.
The wax figure was bleeding when it was broken. The bones and internal organs that looked like humans were clearly visible inside the wax figure, and it emitted the stench of a corpse.
The second wax figure rushed over and was cut open by Dragon five again.
The moving wax figure was scary, but it was not on the same level as Dragon five in terms of combat power.
......
This scene was nothing to Xia Pingan. He was not scared.
However, Xia Pingan, who was wearing the angel mask, still moved his eyebrows. Although the old man whose skull had been blown away by his bullet was on the ground, his body was still struggling. His eyes were still wide open, and he was making a ” hehehe ” sound from his throat, as if he was trying to get up from the ground.
Xia Pingan calmly walked up to the old man and stepped on his chest, pushing him back to the ground coldly. Then, she aimed her gun at the old man’s head and heart and fired three shots in a row.
Finally, the old man stopped moving.
it’s The Song of Life again, ” Xia Pingan muttered to himself.
