192: Chapter 192 Professional Matching

Before long, Duanmu Hongzhen returned with his men.

Soon, the basement passageway was piled high with various rare treasures and a large amount of gold coins.

Tang Mo took a glance, gathered only the gold coins on the floor, and had Duanmu Hongzhen take back the remaining rare treasures.

After all, his Talent could not recycle these items, and carrying them on his person would only arouse the suspicion of Wei Shenchou and the others.

Afterward, Tang Mo went into the basement. Once he had gained control over all the members of the Duanmu Family, he set out to study how to break the Saint-grade defensive scroll.

You really have to give it to him; that guy Duanmu Hongzhen is an Alchemist, so when it comes to researching scrolls, skills, and the like, he is truly the right professional for the job.

"To break this Saint-grade defensive scroll, we must find the activated scroll fragment. As long as the formation on it is destroyed, this protective shield will naturally be unable to maintain itself."

Tang Mo: "Then where is the fragment left behind by Duanmu Hongkuo now?"

Duanmu Hongzhen reached into his inner pocket and took out a scroll that had already been activated. "This is the activated scroll."

"Destroy it."

Upon hearing this, a hexagram flashed in Duanmu Hongzhen's hand, and the scroll turned into dust, slipping from his fingertips.

At the same time, the shield that had been enveloping the Duanmu Family villa area vanished.

Wei Shenchou and Si Yueze, who had been waiting outside, immediately rushed in upon seeing this.

Who would have thought that as soon as they stepped in, everyone found themselves unable to move.

"Oh no! It's a trap!"

With one shout, Wei Shenchou stopped the members of the Heavenly Sword Bureau behind him who were about to enter the villa area.

Si Yueze was also caught in it and unable to move.

The experienced members of the Heavenly Sword Bureau immediately began casting Purify skills on the two.

However, the Purify skills mastered by these Heavenly Sword Bureau members were at most Legendary-grade, which was completely insufficient to break Tang Mo's Domain of Poison.

"Quick, contact Tang Mo!"

Seeing that Purify was useless, Si Yueze couldn't help but think of Tang Mo. After all, this guy was fine when he walked in.

The Heavenly Sword Bureau members quickly took out their heavenly sword tokens and began using them to send a message to Tang Mo.

Upon receiving the message, Tang Mo slapped his thigh. "Oops, how could I have forgotten about this?"

Saying this, he ran outside.

The moment they saw Tang Mo, the heavy stone in Wei Shenchou's heart finally settled. "Kid Tang Mo, hurry and save us!"

Tang Mo nodded and directly cast several extra marks on the people who had entered the villa area, marking them as teammates, so that they would naturally be immune to the binding effect of the Domain of Poison.

Since the small villas nearby were all filled with dead soldiers carrying magic energy crystals, if he deactivated the skill, he feared the entire Xiaan City would be destroyed.

After informing Wei Shenchou and Si Yueze of the situation, the two broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, they hadn't rushed in just now, or else they would likely have been smashed to pieces by now.

Consequently, under Wei Shenchou's command, the surrounding dead soldiers were quickly cleared out, and Duanmu Hongzhen and the remaining members of the Duanmu Family were taken away.

"Strange, besides some rare treasures, the Duanmu Family doesn't even have a single gold coin."

On the way back, Wei Shenchou carefully checked the items confiscated from the Duanmu Family, completely bewildered.

Tang Mo: "Maybe they deposited the gold coins in the Association or some other guild. Who keeps money in their house these days?"

Wei Shenchou nodded slightly. He couldn't be bothered with gold coins; the most important thing was that all of the Duanmu Family's magic energy crystals had been recovered.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Si Yueze turned to Tang Mo and said: "The situation with the Wang and Li families is the same. We will have to trouble you again in a moment, Tang Mo."

Tang Mo immediately patted his chest and said to the two: "No problem, leave it all to me."

The car sped down the highway, and the green belts on both sides of the road kept receding.

The situation with the Li and Wang families was not much different from the Duanmu Family. Under Tang Mo's control, they ultimately couldn't make much of a splash before they were all subdued.

The Heavenly Sword Bureau's operation this time could be considered a complete success.

Just as Tang Mo and the others were returning in triumph, in the interrogation room of the Professional Management Association headquarters in Xiaan City, three Heavenly Sword Bureau Sword Bearers were responsible for interrogating Duanmu Hongkuo and the other two.

"Hahaha, you don't think I'd be stupid enough to keep all the magic energy crystals at home, do you?"

"Even if you recovered all those magic energy crystals from the Duanmu Family, do you know the exact number?"

"You should be very aware of the power of magic energy crystals. Just one is enough to blow the entire Xiaan City into the sky!"

The more Duanmu Hongkuo spoke, the more excited he became, showing absolutely no intention of turning back.

"Before twelve o'clock on the wrist, if you don't let me go, the timer I set on the magic energy crystals will be triggered, and the entire Xiaan City will completely disappear!"

"Hahahaha..."

Yang Zhenxiong's face turned livid. He hadn't expected the head of the Duanmu Family to be so crazy, delusional enough to want all the humans in Xiaan City to be buried with him.

"Lock him up and guard him strictly!"

The situation was urgent, and Yang Zhenxiong had to terminate the interrogation. He had to inform Chairman Ye Shao of this situation as soon as possible so they could immediately discuss countermeasures.

"If what this madman says is true, then there isn't much time left!"

Yang Zhenxiong looked at his large gold watch; the hour hand was pointing at ten, and the minute hand was pointing at six.

"10:30!"

After seeing the time, Yang Zhenxiong quickened his pace.

Soon, the conference room was filled with people again.

Upon learning this news, Ye Shao's face turned extremely livid. If it was really as he said, then all the humans in Xiaan City were in imminent danger.

"State your various views and suggestions. If it's useless, don't bother saying it. Right now, our time is very precious."

When the meeting was notified, the intelligence department had already informed the attendees of this situation in advance. Now, they had to race against time.

Fortunately, only Duanmu Hongkuo was a madman; Li Hengfu and Wang Hongyang were unaware of it.

"I think we should prepare for two scenarios. First, evacuate everyone in Xiaan City as quickly as possible. We still have over an hour; using the teleportation stations, there is definitely enough time."

"Second, contact someone who understands Mind Control skills as soon as possible to come and perform mental control on Duanmu Hongkuo, so that he will reveal the hidden location of the magic energy crystals."

Su Xintian, dressed in a capable professional woman's suit, stood up and said.

Since returning from Jiangkou City, Su Xintian had begun working as an assistant by Ye Shao's side.

Relying on her excellent ability to handle affairs, Su Xintian quickly gained the recognition of Ye Shao and her colleagues.

Hearing Su Xintian's words, everyone couldn't help but nod. This was indeed the safest way to handle the situation right now.

Immediately, Ye Shao gave the order: "The Guard Army is to evacuate the residents of Xiaan City and its surroundings with all their might, making them temporarily stay away from Xiaan City. The action must be fast!"

However, afterward, everyone fell silent. Where were they supposed to find someone who understood Mind Control skills?
