13. Acute Attack of Collapse Disease

Kevin felt like he was being played. Who said that Xia had few friends in school and only had Su as a friend, and that he wasn't very popular and only read novels every day?

Oh, that’s what Su said. Su is playing me.

There are girls here who bring lunch boxes, but you don’t have any friends here.

Xia: "Just an ordinary friend."

Just a reader who once wrote novels.

Kevin: "Ordinary friends don't give you lunch."

Su: "Then you have too many ambiguous friends."

I gave you so many things, but you didn't say anything.

Su rolled his eyes. Kevin was so mean. He was so cool when others gave him gifts. Now he was skipping him and giving Xia one. Kevin had an expression of disapproval again.

Kevin: “I didn’t accept it.”

Kevin spread his hands and almost dropped the lunch box on his lap, so he quickly used his hands to steady it.

After dinner, they went to school for the whole afternoon. After school, everyone left the school. Kevin wanted to ask Xia to sing karaoke with him, but Xia refused.

Kevin had no choice but to go with Su.

Xia went to the village in the city again. He didn't have the courage to kill people, but he had the courage to clean up those who were possessed by evil spirits. Not only that, but it was very big.

He lacks the soul to temper his body, and those who are possessed by demons will only cause harm to ordinary people if they are still alive.

Even if he met other cultivators, he could disguise himself as a decent cultivator by using the Qingfeng Curse. After all, he was doing good deeds, but his approach was a bit too arbitrary.

There are always a lot of people in the urban village at night, and the streets are full of vendors selling small accessories or snacks. Xia bought some barbecue and sat down to eat at a stall beside the road, while spreading his spiritual sense to explore the surrounding "spiritual energy" reaction.

After eating the barbecue, they found their target. Xia found a residential building and used his spiritual sense to detect that the cultivator was upstairs.

Xia was a little hesitant downstairs, not knowing whether to go up.

He was not sure whether the person upstairs was a possessed person or a normal monk. All he had discovered before were deep in the alley. Even if he went over and saw that it was a normal monk, he could explain it.

But now the other person is in a residential building, and I can't go to his house.

He hesitated for a moment downstairs, and only went upstairs after confirming that the man upstairs had been wandering around the house, similar to those possessed people in the alleys.

The old buildings in the urban village had no elevators, and the stairs were covered with children's graffiti and advertisements. Xia heard what seemed to be sirens outside, but he didn't pay much attention.

Going up to the sixth floor, Xia stood outside the door. After making sure that the monk was inside, he knocked on the door.

There was a loud bang on the door, accompanied by a low roar. Xia put his hand on the door handle and was about to break in silently when he heard chaotic footsteps at the stairs.

Xia stopped what he was doing and continued knocking on the door as if nothing had happened.

A team of people in black uniforms, armed with pistols, rifles and explosion-proof shields, rushed up the stairs. The leader saw Xia standing at the door, stunned for a moment, and then pulled Xia aside.

"What are your identities and the people inside?"

A man in a black uniform tried to pull Xia downstairs, but Xia was standing at the top of the stairs. "Just ordinary friends."

"You can go downstairs now. This place is controlled by the Fire Moth."

Xia: "What happened inside..."

Xia didn't say anything about the possessed person or the monk, because the person who was pulling him didn't have much spiritual energy reaction, just the level of an ordinary person.

"Nothing to do with you."

The cold words were like a late summer ice cream hitting his head, making Xia frown. The warrior who called himself the Fire Moth wanted to pull Xia downstairs, but the rough action made Xia grab his neck and press him against the wall.

If the other person is also a cultivator and is stronger than Xia, Xia might still have some respect for him. If an ordinary person treats Xia like this, although he can tolerate it, it would be too frustrating.

"I ask, you answer. I don't want to go against the fire moths you're talking about, but I also hope you can communicate with me normally."

The soldier tried to resist, but Xia's hand, like a pair of pliers, pressed against his neck without a flicker.

Several soldiers quickly pointed their guns at Xia, but Xia didn't care.

"Who are you? I warn you not to move."

The warrior's words made Xia sigh.

Killing people was easy. After all, he had already killed more than a dozen possessed people yesterday. However, those were in places without surveillance, and there were few surveillance cameras in the alleys. No one knew that he had entered the alleys and killed those possessed people.

But it's different here. The surveillance cameras in the residential building saw him, and these soldiers holding guns also had recorders on their shoulders.

Even if we kill them and destroy the bodies, we will still be caught. It is better to take this opportunity to explore another world hidden in the modern world.

These people who call themselves Fire Moths can come to find the possessed person with guns and explosion-proof shields. They must know the identity of the possessed person. They are professionals.

Since they know, then naturally...wait, by the way, they couldn't be the ones hunting those modern monks, right?

After all, modern monks are so good at disguising themselves.

Xia was a little weak, and the soldier grabbed him with one hand and turned him over.

"The boy has some strength, and his B-suit is good, but his actual combat ability is a bit lacking."

Xia: "...I'm a student, an international student at Qianyu Academy."

"Even if you're a newbie, you can't stay upstairs. Get downstairs immediately. Charge forward and clear out the assassins."

Even though he was being held by the neck and pretending to be cool, the captain of the Fire Moth still did not do anything too rough to Xia.

After all, Xia's strength is there, and he felt it just now. Although he didn't know why Xia's strength had decreased, he had more or less restrained his emotions.

If you really have a conflict with ordinary people and things get out of hand, you will be the one who suffers.

Before Xia and the team leader who called himself the Fire Moth landed down the stairs, there was an explosion and crackling gunfire. After a few seconds, the gunfire stopped.

The captain rubbed his neck and sighed helplessly. The assassin actually broke open the door.

It's over. I could have just taken him downstairs and taken him away, but now I have to make this kid sign a confidentiality agreement.

The team leader took out a stack of A4 paper from somewhere and handed it to Xia, "That person is your friend, right? He signed this confidentiality agreement."

"He's done something wrong."

"Just think of it as an acute attack of Honkai disease."

Xia Ben's hand, which was about to sign, paused slightly and trembled. Honkai disease, an acute attack?

"Sign, and the money will be deposited into your card. From now on, just pretend that what happened today never happened. You're quite strong. Are you interested in joining the Fire Moths to save the world?"

Xia: "...There's no such thing as an acute onset of Honkai Disease."

14 Death Soldiers and Collapse

"It's medically impossible, but this is the reality. He's having an acute attack of Houkai disease."

Xia: "My parents also had an acute attack of Honkai disease. Are they the same as him?"

"Your parents? I don't know, but generally speaking, those who declare an acute onset of Honkai disease are like this."

The team leader touched his nose and shrugged his shoulders, as if feeling a little impolite. He said, "To be honest, you're pretty unlucky. You keep encountering this kind of thing. You can call them death squads. At least that's what we, the Fire Chasing Moths, call them."

Xia signed, "Death Soldiers... who were they before they became Death Soldiers?"

My parents became dead soldiers...those cultivators who went astray. Could it be that my parents were also cultivators before?

Xia didn't realize it at all. His parents were ordinary people. At most, they were a little smarter than ordinary people and earned a little more money from work, but that was all.

"Ordinary people, ordinary people everywhere on the street. I don't know how you became like this. Maybe it's just bad luck. It's really strange. There seem to be more and more assassins in this city. Well, it's getting late. I see you're unlucky, so I'm giving you a call. If you encounter one of these assassins next time, remember to call me. You're quite strong, so you should be able to hold on until we get here."

The team leader lifted Xia's hand and wrote a six-digit phone number on it.

Xia: "If I kill them, will that be illegal?"

Xia pretended to be calm and withdrew his hand. He looked at the phone in his hand, wrote it down, and said casually.

"Kill them, kill as many as you want. After you're done, just call this number to collect the bodies. If you kill enough, when you reach adulthood and join the Fire Moths, you might even be able to become a team leader. Even if you don't join the Fire Moths, you can still get money, like hush money or something. But young man, don't put yourself in danger just to kill these things."

The team leader patted Xia's shoulder and said, "Saving the world is not something you should do at your age. Think about it after you graduate."

Xia: "...was my parents also killed in this way?"

The team leader said: "I can help you check what your parents' names are. If they are nearby, maybe I can help you deal with it."

"Lin, my father's name."

"Lin... Fei, oh, I remember now. I don't know whether to say it's lucky or unlucky. Your parents were killed while driving. Then they had a car accident and fell off the overpass, causing a huge explosion. Apart from your parents, no one else was injured or killed."

The team leader patted Xia's shoulder and said, "It's only been a few days since then. My condolences to you, young man. Don't take it too seriously. Everything is caused by the collapse."

After knowing how his parents died, Xia inexplicably felt relieved, but then came a sense of urgency. What does collapse... mean?

"What is collapse?"

Team Leader: "Nothing, you'll know once you join the Fire Moth. I can't tell you now. You understand the confidentiality agreement, right?"

The team leader took out a cigarette and lit it, and after chatting for a few minutes, the team members upstairs carried the body down on a stretcher, and then the team leader left.

Xia wrote down the phone number in his cell phone.

Death warriors, cultivators, and those who have gone astray.

It is not normal for an ordinary person to become a dead warrior and have his physical strength improved to the level of Qi training.

Collapse, is everything caused by collapse? What is collapse?

What is the relationship between those possessed people called death warriors and Honkai, and what conspiracy is there between them?

Xia felt as if he was about to enter the real modern world, only one step away from the real world.

Xia wiped the phone number off his hand and turned to walk towards the location of the next assassin.

"In short, let's kill more of these assassins first to improve our physical strength and cultivation, and see if we can get the answer from the Fire Moth."

No matter what, it is always right to improve your strength first.

However, Xia originally thought that his parents died accidentally, but now he got an answer related to the collapse, which still made him feel complicated.

I heard from the team leader that the accidental death in the car accident was indeed an accident, but becoming a dead soldier was also related to the collapse.

So Honkai is the existence that actually killed one's parents.

As a cultivator, even if it is a demon cultivator, when faced with the hatred of killing one's father and mother, one will take it to heart, even if one's mental age is already 37 years old, psychologically speaking, he is no longer young.

Xia killed a assassin, grabbed his head and smashed it hard on the ground. His soul dissipated and entered Xia's body.

Xia made a phone call and sent a location message to the short-lived mobile phone number via MMS. After waiting for a few minutes, the team leader finally arrived. He stared blankly with a gun in his hand as Xia casually wiped the pale purple transparent blood of the dead man on his hand with a wet wipe.

Xia pointed at the dead body on the ground and asked, "How much is this one?"

"...No, man, I was just kidding. You really can kill."

Although they possess strange powers, those death warriors are not small animals that can be slaughtered at will. If they are bitten a few times, the concentration of their body's collapse energy will increase, and they will become death warriors.

But looking at Xia's appearance and the fact that there were no signs of battle on his body, he seemed to be uninjured.

"joke?"

The team leader quickly shook his head. "No, no, it's just hush money. Honestly, brother, it's not worth it."

If you accidentally see a assassin signing a confidentiality agreement, it can be considered as unexpected money, and 100,000 JPY is okay. But if you only get 100,000 JPY by killing one assassin, then it is not worth it.

After all, this is something that can kill you.

Xia nodded, "One hundred thousand for one, not bad, acceptable."

As expected, these people from the Fire Moth had never thought of rescuing these possessed people. Xia felt that he should only reveal his great strength, and keep his cultivation a secret for the time being. After all, who knows if they would regard him as a conscious "death soldier" if his cultivation was exposed.

In Xia's opinion, each of these dead men was a cultivator who had gone astray, whose consciousness had become crazy and whose body had been damaged.

Xia then signed and wrote his bank card number.

"I'm quite strong and unlucky, so I often encounter things like this. It's just that I always killed them alone before and didn't tell anyone. Now that I know I can exchange it for money, I'll just treat it as a windfall."

The team leader swallowed his saliva and said, "Man, you have killed so many assassins."

"Seven or eight, maybe."

The team leader's eyes widened in shock.

Xia: "There were more yesterday, about a dozen."

Team leader: “!!?”
