Chapter 385 Looking for Bugs Here

Ling Mo integrated the communication module into the soundproof earmuffs of the three, ensuring they could maintain normal conversation despite the deafening noise around them.

So, the fat guy’s terrified shout reached their ears.

Bai Yan paused slightly: “Zhang D日?”

“You remember him, huh?” Ling Mo smiled, “That’s right, he’s the deputy of the Chicks.”

The fat guy on the comms hesitated: “What?! Who was that girl talking just now? This isn’t the time for reminiscing, right? Old Ling, what the hell do you guys intend to do?!”

Drawing all the demons in the city over there, isn’t that just asking for death?

Ling Mo remained calm: “We suspect someone’s behind this incident, so we naturally need a way to verify it.”

Hearing this, Bai Yan and Xia Xinyan both looked at him.

The fat guy paused again: “What?! You suspect this big news was man-made?! Are you sure?! Can humans even create an invasion event nowadays?!”

Bai Yan shook her head: “Not necessarily, but if an invasion event happens here, there’s a way to amplify its impact.”

Xia Xinyan raised an eyebrow: “Are you two investigating this matter?”

“Yeah.” Bai Yan didn’t deny it, but she had no plans to elaborate.

Xia Xinyan didn’t ask any further; since they didn’t want to share, she respected that.

The loudspeaker still blared an extremely intense song, but the three of them fell into silence for a moment.

Until the fat guy broke the quiet again: “So what’s your plan? I’m telling you, this isn’t a joke! You guys should’ve noticed the influence that renders all weapons ineffective in the city, right? What are you planning to do once those monsters are attracted over? Need us to help?”

Ling Mo spoke: “No need, just have others keep an eye out, especially note which direction the most demons are coming from.”

If, as previously stated, the monsters in this city were continually increasing, there was likely a spawning point, and maybe they could locate it this way.

Currently, the Eagles Alliance had people spread across the entire city; if anything abnormal happened anywhere, they would certainly know about it immediately.
It was the first time the Eagles had a chance to showcase their skills.

The fat guy took a deep breath but didn’t push further: “Alright, just be careful not to get yourselves killed. If you can’t hold on, remember to call for help. The brothers can support you anytime.”
With that, he hung up the call.

Xia Xinyan had been surveying below, and by now, many demons had already been attracted over, almost surrounding the stadium and starting to attack their position. However, being at such a high distance, not many of those demons could reach them.

Moreover, the pillars Ling Mo had conjured to support the elevated platform were quite sturdy; even as the stadium was almost reduced to rubble from explosions, the pillars beneath them showed no signs of budging.

But at this rate, they probably wouldn’t last long.

Bai Yan frowned slightly and turned to Ling Mo: “Do you have a way to resolve this situation?”

Even with her abilities, it would be impossible to carve a path through such a scene, but Ling Mo hadn’t chosen to call for help, so he must have a plan, right?

She didn’t believe Ling Mo was crazy.

Ling Mo just smiled: “Why not blow them up?”

“My abilities aren’t enough to blow up that many monsters,” Bai Yan shook her head and asked, “Or are you planning to use that kind of magic again?”

All weaponry had been rendered ineffective, so naturally, bombs and similar couldn’t be used either. Thus, the only way to eliminate the monsters below seemed to be through magic.

But with such a terrifying scale down there, even top-tier magic users on the rankings might not be able to handle it.

Humans have limits.

Unless it’s that kind of magic again, but she could tell that despite its power, the side effects from using it were significant—probably the reason Xia’s lady was carried by Ling Mo to move just now.

But it seemed like that was the only approach left.

However, upon hearing Bai Yan say that, Xia Xinyan paused.

Her legs were still weak, and there was no way she could use that kind of magic again.

But Ling Mo wasn’t considering that method; instead, he smiled and pointed at the edge of the stage where fireworks were still bursting: “Look, the fireworks can still be released.”

“Fireworks?” Bai Yan turned to look, seeing the fireworks bloom in the sky over the city, adding an eerie beauty to the apocalypse-like scenery.

Xia Xinyan pondered for two seconds and suddenly said: “You… plan to use fireworks?”

“Yep,” Ling Mo’s smile widened, “This is also an experiment. I want to test the range of that weapon restriction effect. It seems there’s still a loophole to exploit.”

What a wife, understanding him so quickly.

He had previously attempted to explore the influence range of the weapon restrictions, like how the walkie-talkie and knife couldn’t be used, etc.—he pretty much had an idea then that the influence must have nullified all concepts associated with “weapons.” Anything related to weapons would be forbidden.

But within things not related to weapons, there were also objects that could inflict harm, right?

For instance, fireworks; purely ornamental, but if aimed at a person, it would turn into a self-propelled rocket—just not very powerful.

If he were to amp up the explosive powder in the fireworks, and change the material of the launch tube, wouldn’t it become something that could shoot people?

Xia Xinyan thought he was just looking for bugs in the system.

No matter how one looked at it, such a shoddy trick shouldn’t work, right?

While she was contemplating this, Ling Mo had already conjured an experimental item—a rocket launcher.

But the rocket launcher was painted in bright fireworks colors, and the tube even had “Ling Mo Fireworks Factory Production” written on it; one could only wonder who he was fooling.

The rocket launcher had a grip but no trigger; instead, an extended ten-centimeter fuse came out of the tube—Ling Mo also conjured a lighter.

“I’m gonna give it a try.” He tossed aside his guitar, shouldered the tube, and walked to the edge of the stage.

Bai Yan didn’t seem to have high hopes: “It only looks like a firework launcher; it’s still essentially a lethal weapon, so it should be unable to fool…”

BIU—!

With a light sound, Ling Mo’s large firework launcher shot off its first round of fireworks.

However, typical fireworks shoot upwards; he shot them down instead.

Then—

BOOM—!!

A massive explosion sounded from below, erupting into a large fireball while scattering a multitude of small sparks, creating secondary explosions around the blast—just like fireworks, one set off and the sky was filled with stars.

It even added a bit of violent beauty.
