Beating Instances through Words Left by the Dead

Chapter 426: Chapter 227: Stolen Disqualified Monster Converter

The first thing Wu Chang thought of when he saw the intelligence report was Fei Guang and Booker and others.

In the Federation, especially in Wilder City, only those lawless players would dare to target high officials of the Hymn Company.

But upon seeing the photos of the deceased executives’ bodies, he felt the murderer was someone else.

In the photos, the limbs of the two dead were bound with ropes, and their faces covered with black sacks, kneeling in front of a monument.

The cause of death for the two executives was a gunshot to the head. According to subsequent forensic tests, there were no other injuries on their bodies, nor were there any harmful drug components detected in their bodies, indicating that the two had not been tortured or injected with hallucinogens or truth serum before their deaths.

Moreover, judging by the manner of their deaths at the scene, it was clearly an execution, with two shell casings found at the scene, each inscribed with the words ’safety’ and ’morality.’

It’s not difficult to see from the killer’s actions that compared to killing the two executives, he wanted to express a certain attitude.

The player community wouldn’t be so bored; whether it’s Fei Guang or Booker and others, if they make a move on the natives in the dungeon, there is surely some motive.

Or intelligence, or something on the natives.

The natives killed by players wouldn’t be so clean, and their deaths wouldn’t be so blatant.

After all, the players’ task is to be employees of the Hymn Company, not to attack the Hymn Company; even if they really did it, they would do it stealthily, destroying bodies to eliminate traces.

Furthermore, the monument in front of which the two executives knelt before their deaths is named the Sid Monument, intended to commemorate the tragedy that erupted in Sid Town ten years ago.

Sid Town is a small town with a population close to forty thousand. Due to its beautiful environment and proximity to Third York City, the capital of the Federation, it was often chosen as a vacation spot by the rich of York City.

But the reason this tourism resort became well-known wasn’t that; the vast majority of Federation people know this small town because it’s the first place the Disqualified Monster appeared.

It was a foggy Sunday, initially thought to be an ordinary day, until a giant monster emerged from a lake not far from the town.

It wasn’t a water monster, nor did it resemble the images people saw in monster disaster films.

It didn’t roar or possess an earth-shattering aura; it merely passed quietly through the town, consuming everything around it silently.

Houses, cars, trees, flowers, and people.

The townspeople tried to resist, only to discover their weapons couldn’t harm the monster, drawing its attention instead.

Faced with the sudden monster, all people could do was flee.

The monster’s appearance quickly alarmed the military.

Since Sid Town was not far from the capital, the military support came quickly. By the time the monster had eaten a third of the town, the Federation’s fighter jets were overhead.

Following high-level instructions, the fighter jets launched an attack on the disqualified monster that had grown to thirty meters in size.

But soon the Federation army discovered that neither fighter jets, tanks, nor long-range artillery could harm this special monster.

The weapons they fired would be affected by an unknown force when approaching the monster, deviating from their targets.

Not only direct attacks, even the impact from explosions would be twisted by this unknown ability, bypassing the monster’s body, affecting other directions.

The subsequent battle lasted five hours, and during these five hours, it seemed as though the Federation army had come not to eliminate the monster but to deliver takeout.

Not only did they fail to stop the monster, but they also lost four or five tanks and dozens of special soldiers collecting monster samples.

The battle stretched from day to night; more than two-thirds of the town had been devoured into wasteland, and the monster’s body grew from thirty meters to over a hundred meters.

The Federation army was at their wit’s end with the monster, but they couldn’t let it continue to exist, as its path was leading toward Third York City.

If allowed to keep eating, it would soon reach the capital.

After much hesitation, the military decided to cut off all TV broadcasts, stopping the global livestream of the feast.

Then they used the Federation’s traditional skill, a nuclear strike.

The explosion centered on the Disqualified Monster; the blinding light illuminated Sid Town’s night sky, and a massive mushroom cloud rose, reducing Sid Town to history.

For the Federation, nothing was more lamentable than growing mushrooms at home with their own hands.

Because this decision, dishonoring the ancestors, meant the result of the next election was already predetermined.

What could be more lamentable than Sid Town’s mushroom cloud was the Disqualified Monster slowly wriggling out after the cloud dispersed.

Seeing that even the nuclear bomb couldn’t deal with the Disqualified Monster, people no longer cared to blame the military and the Federation’s decision; they could only shout that the end of the world was near, desperately praying to God, pleading for the Almighty Master to calm the anger and take back this monster that brought the apocalypse.

When people fell into deep despair, Schultz personally arrived in a Hymn Company armed helicopter, bringing with him the newest high-energy weapons developed by the Hymn Company.

The Disqualified Monster, unharmed by a nuclear bomb, was utterly shattered by three rounds of super high-energy energy cannon volleys.

From that moment on, Hymn Company became the sole god in the arms realm.

As the situation continued to develop, Hymn Company’s relationship with the Disqualified Monster grew increasingly close, leading people to suspect that the tragedy in Sid Town was a conspiracy orchestrated by Hymn Company.
