Chapter 66: Chapter 66: Cardboard Box

Short Blade, Plague Scythe.

Fire guns, modified Holy Water Bombs.

Both of them took out their corresponding battle equipment…

As the two stepped onto the dark attic, Koslin was already prepared.

He held five ‘disc-shaped’ small devices between his fingers and threw them out in all directions.

These small mechanical discs would spring sharp mechanical legs from the bottom upon contact with any object, embedding themselves into the wall or floor.

Once stable, the kerosene stored within would self-ignite for illumination.

Essentially, it was a portable miniature kerosene lamp.

It was quite suitable for such a confined, dark environment.

It could diffuse visible light immediately, facilitating direct observation with the naked eye.

At the same time, the flames could also restrain lower-level evil creatures, altering the geographical advantage.

When the firelight illuminated the attic, the space was larger than expected.

Upon arriving in the attic, the magnet was clearly vibrating, but there was no sight of the old lady… instead, there were gigantic storage boxes scattered across the attic.

The size of these boxes was just enough to contain a person. There were so many of them, densely arranged.

Obviously… the old lady was in one of these boxes.

They only needed to check each box using the intensity of the magnet’s vibration to locate the old lady.

However, there was a certain degree of danger in this process, as they could not directly locate the old lady. They had to compare the vibrations caused by each box to the magnet to ascertain her location.

Koslin suggested, “It’s too dangerous to search directly… I can shoot at each box sequentially! Until I hit the target.”

At this point, Han Dong asked a crucial question:

“We want her alive, right?”

Being affected by ‘pollution’, Koslin had become quite emotional and hadn’t even considered this issue. He was just thinking of killing the target to vent his hatred.

“…Yes, we need her alive… Maybe we can find a ‘weakness’ through her, which could give us safer access to the mansion.”

“Since we want her alive, we can’t be reckless.

Besides, there are 28 boxes. If we’re unlucky, you might waste up to 20 of your specially made silver-piercing bullets.

Those bullets should be expensive and not easy to replenish, right?

Later, we might need to venture deeper into the Baker mansion, and we should save bullets.

Koslin, you stay here! I will search one by one. Once the target appears, please shoot at her important joints.

I will figure out how to restrain her.”

Han Dong’s calm analysis surprised Koslin.

In his past teams, he used to analyse the situation in tandem with Cass.

But now, it was Han Dong who calmed his emotions, analysed the current situation coldly, and devised the best ‘capture plan’.

For a moment, Koslin’s view of Han Dong completely changed. He no longer saw him as a two-star rookie. In his heart, he was already a member of the team.

“Direct search is very dangerous… Without being a Cross Crusader, can you handle an ambush by the pollution source?”

“Yes!”

There was no hesitation in Han Dong’s response, and his eyes were full of confidence and determination.

“Alright… as long as you can restrain the target, my binding device can completely lock down the pollution source.”

“Okay.”

After finishing their conversation, Han Dong started to act.

He held the ‘Plague Doctor’s Short Blade’ in his left hand and activated the relevant traits of the ghoul with his right arm (maintaining the normal size of his arm).

If you observed Han Dong’s footprints using a magnifying glass, you would find clusters of fungi where his feet had been.

This indicated that Han Dong was fully focused, every second consuming a certain amount of the ‘Seed’ energy in his mind, putting him in a ‘Plague Control’ state.

The resonance magnet was hanging around his neck with a thin wire.

Buzz…

The change in vibration was very obvious, and Han Dong quickly eliminated nearly twenty boxes, heading towards the corner of the attic.

The closer to the corner, the more difficult Koslin’s shooting became.

However, Koslin didn’t have any worries or unease. As long as the target was not completely covered, he could shoot with precision.

The firearm had been transformed from a handgun to a sniper rifle.

He installed a three-times scope, stabilized it at the entrance of the attic, and kept his crosshair aimed at the boxes around Han Dong.

Koslin also took another sip of Holy Water to ensure he stayed awake.b

Remaining boxes:

5,

3,

2,

1…Han Dong’s gaze is trained on a cardboard box in the corner, two meters away.

“The most dangerous situation has passed… Next comes the ‘capture’ phase.”

In Han Dong’s eyes, the most dangerous thing is the venture of searching for the target in a heap of cardboard boxes.

With only ‘1’ option left, the danger drops to its lowest.

Considering the previous incident where Koslin shot the old woman, she neither screamed as it happened, nor was her actions impacted afterwards.

Han Dong deduced that the damage inflicted by ordinary bullets on the old lady wasn’t lethal.

Therefore, he gestured to Koslin, who was already on guard with his gun at the staircase, ordering him to shoot at the cardboard box using small-caliber bullets.

There was only one goal, to drive the target out.

Bang!

A small-caliber conventional bullet fired and precisely hit the center of the cardboard box.

Thump!

From the sound, it was clear the bullet had hit a flesh-and-blood target.

The target was hit.

But…

What followed was not the terrifying scene, as had been imagined, where the old woman emerged from the box with a vicious expression.

All was silent.

The box did not move, not even the slightest bit.

However…

A stream of ash-black viscous fluid slowly seeped out of the hole in the box, spreading out on the floor.

“Hmm?”

Han Dong frowned, gesturing to Koslin to fire again.

Whoosh-

Another bullet was fired into it.

The situation was exactly the same, the box was motionless, and another stream of dirty fluid flowed out from the hole.

The trigger was pulled five times in a row.

With the continuous barrage of bullets, more and more dirty fluid flowed out from the bullet holes, spreading completely around the cardboard box.

The situation exceeded Han Dong’s expectations.

Plague Beam!

Han Dong directly shot a stream of plague energy from the tip of his dagger, infiltrating inside the cardboard box.

Immediately following this, the blood flowing out from the bullet holes also contained some glow bacteria bodies, clearly indicating that the plague was working.

Yet, still the box had no movement.

“Did the first bullet just happen to hit the weak spot, causing the target to die…

or is it enduring it?”

Han Dong bit his teeth and stepped up.

“Miss Chen Li, be ready to appear at any moment.”

When he reached the box,

Bent down,

Extended his right hand,

And lifted the box the very instant!

A white curtain hidden at the top of the attic fell down.

At the same time, the elderly woman in the cardboard box abruptly stood up…

Which resulted in the falling curtain just engulfing the two of them.

In the white curtain, Han Dong and the old woman stared at each other at ‘point-blank’ range.

Unfortunately, all the bullets just fired at the cardboard box had hit the old woman in the head, leaving her face with seven holes.

Then something strange happened!

Clink! Clink! Clink! (Sounds of bullets falling)

Due to some sort of small tentacle’s movement, the bullet shells inside the holes were slowly pushed out, falling to the ground.

Eerie tentacles grew out from those holes, dancing in front of Han Dong’s “safety goggles”.

Close range contamination!!

For an ordinary Apprentice Knight, it’s undoubtedly a death sentence!
