Bab 2919: Chapter 2904: Discovery_1
The captain at the front glared at the soldier who had just spoken and scolded, "A bunch of cowards, these two creatures may look terrifying, but their heads have been chopped off forcefully, how could they possibly be still alive!"
Having said that, he fearlessly walked over to one of the abyssal creature's corpses, picked up the head laying nearby, and tossed it…
With a fierce kick, he sent it flying, smashing violently against the wall…
However, nothing unusual happened!
Seeing this, he spoke again, "You all saw it, right? This thing is thoroughly dead; there's no danger whatsoever!"
Upon hearing these words, the previously retreating Spirit Hall soldiers finally breathed a sigh of relief…
And realized their earlier fear was unnecessary!
"Scared me to death, I really thought for a moment that it wasn't completely dead. If it attacked while we were handling the corpses, just the thought is terrifying!"
"Yeah, but with the captain saying so, there's nothing to be scared of now. After all, no creature can just watch its own head being kicked around like a ball and not react at all."
"A false alarm, indeed, a false alarm. I told you, how could it still be alive without a head!"
"Bullshit, you were the one who backed away the fastest just now!"
Seeing them still talking among themselves, the leading captain's face turned ashen, "Since you're not afraid anymore, what are you standing around for? Hurry and take these corpses back to the Pope Hall!"
"If we're late and His Holiness the Pope blames us, don't say I didn't show mercy!"
An incident like this in Martial Soul City will certainly be investigated by His Holiness the Pope!!
In an instant, all the Spirit Hall soldiers dared not chat anymore and began to move the two corpses…
But soon enough, they encountered another problem…
"Uh, captain, do we need to clean up this place? Just the smell of blood is too strong. I'm afraid it will attract the attention of the people in Martial Soul City."
If discovered, the standing of Spirit Hall might very well be affected!!
The captain paused, then contemplated, "Hmm... no need to clean, but let's temporarily seal off this area. No one but Spirit Hall personnel are to enter!!"
Getting discovered would indeed be troublesome, but cleaning up the scene could affect the subsequent investigation!
To be safe, it's better to first seal off the area and wait for the orders from His Holiness the Pope!!
The other soldier nodded slightly, "Yes, captain, I'll request support right away and seal off this area!"
…
Pope Hall!
Inside the grand hall!
A member of Spirit Hall bowed deeply, with a solemn face, he said, "Your Holiness the Pope, I have urgent news to report!"
Sitting in the Pope's Chair, Bi Bidong, who looked haggard, spoke in a very tired voice, "What is it??"
Only then did the soldier reply, "I've just received news; a horrific incident occurred in Martial Soul City, with casualties likely numbering over a hundred!"
Bi Bidong's pupils constricted, and she suddenly became alert, demanding, "What?? Hundreds of people died in Martial Soul City??"
"Tell me the detailed account of the incident immediately!"
The soldier naturally didn't dare say more, and began to recount from the beginning…
"It was like this, early this morning, a few Spirit Hall soldiers patrolling came upon numerous Soul Master corpses in a sparsely populated area!!"
"They immediately inspected the area…"
When he finished, one could vaguely see that Bi Bidong's expression had turned ice-cold…
She angrily rebuked, "Damned abyssal creatures, daring to take action within Martial Soul City. If they weren't discovered today, how many more Soul Masters would die by their hands!"
She did not mourn for those deceased Soul Masters; she saw the abyssal creatures taking action in Martial Soul City as a provocation against herself!!
The soldier looked puzzled, "Abyssal creatures?? Could it be that Your Holiness the Pope knows the origin of those two massive beasts?"
Bi Bidong also realized, and forcibly suppressed the anger in her heart…
"This is not something you should know!"
The former immediately bowed his head, "Forgive me for speaking out of turn, Your Holiness."
Bi Bidong then commanded again, "You, go immediately and inform Ghost Charm and Yue Guan of this matter, and have them bring those two creatures' corpses here!!"
"At once, Your Holiness!"
...
Not long after, Yue Guan and Ghost Charm arrived at the great hall...
They clasped their fists and said, "Your Holiness!"
Bi Bidong looked at them with a solemn expression, "You both must have already heard about the situation, right??"
Yue Guan spoke in a deep voice, "Yes, Your Holiness, the Spirit Hall soldier has already informed us!"
Ghost Charm then added, "We have also followed your orders and placed the corpses inside this storage soul tool!"
Although storage soul tools were extremely rare in this era, they were not completely non-existent!!
Bi Bidong took a deep breath and ordered, "Mm, bring out the corpses."
He himself wanted to see what these abyssal creatures looked like!
Yue Guan hesitated for a moment before asking, "Your Holiness, should we inform Xu Sheng of this matter? He is very knowledgeable about abyssal creatures, and he might have some useful suggestions!"
Bi Bidong's expression did not change as she said, "This matter is not urgent, just do as I have ordered!"
Yue Guan knew better than to say anything else, "Yes!"
He then opened the storage soul tool and took out the two corpses within...
In an instant, the massive corpses occupied the entire great hall...
The head alone was several meters high...
Even Bi Bidong couldn't help but swallow hard...
She marveled, "The size of these abyssal creatures is probably larger than that of ordinary soul beasts!!"
At least, among the soul beasts she had seen, only those with nearly a hundred thousand years of cultivation level could compare with them!
Upon hearing this, Yue Guan suddenly spoke up, "Your Holiness, Ghost Charm and I have carefully examined the wounds of these two abyssal creatures. Their heads were all cut off by a sword, and there are faint traces of Soul Power Aura!"
"It's likely they were killed by a Soul Master of the Title Douluo level!!"
"That's right, and not just any Title Douluo, but possibly one at the Hyper Douluo level," he added.
Even for a Soul Douluo, it would be difficult to breach their defenses with full force!
Bi Bidong narrowed her eyes, analyzing, "So you're saying that before the Spirit Hall members discovered them, there was already a powerful individual within Martial Soul City who took action to kill them!!"
It seemed that the individual had hidden very well, and in slaughtering the abyssal creatures, they had unwittingly helped Spirit Hall greatly...
It was just unfortunate that no survivors were left!!
Otherwise, they might have been able to find out something!
Seeing this, Ghost Charm then asked, "Your Holiness, what should we do now?? Should we dispose of these corpses?"
Bi Bidong shook her head, "No, keep them for now, and then have the Spirit Hall members search the whole Martial Soul City!!"
"We must root out the abyssal creatures hiding within Martial Soul City!!"
If they could infiltrate this far, perhaps there were more than just two abyssal creatures!!
