Strongest Weapon Sequence

"Taboo Museum?"

"The core of the Rotten Kingdom is actually kept in the Taboo Museum?"

"Impossible! How could such a terrifying forbidden weapon be born in a Class B incident?"

"..."

With the girl's disappearance and the appearance of this message, it was as if a bomb had been thrown around them, causing a group of terrified toads to emerge. Not only the newcomers, but most of them looked confused and didn't know what was going on... including Xiao Xiao. Meanwhile, Old Zhou Under the Bridge, Yang Jia, Red Eyes Ling Ping, the Serpent Sisters, and others looked shocked.

The tranquility was shattered instantly, and everyone could see the shock in each other's eyes.

Even more surprisingly, someone suddenly asked a crucial question, "Wait a minute..."

"If the core of this Rotten Kingdom has reached the level of a forbidden weapon, how dare he hug it?"

"..."

"Whoosh!"

This instantly drew countless terrified glances to Xiao Xiao.

Xiao Xiao could clearly sense that these gazes contained more than just fear and panic towards him...

... Why the hell is there even a bit more praise?

"This..."

He was equally confused about what had just happened and immediately looked at Yang Jia instinctively.

But Yang Jia's pupils also dilated sharply. She was controlling her emotions when she immediately stepped forward and whispered:

"Thank you for your hard work. The matter of the Rotten Kingdom has been resolved."

"..."

Xiao Xiao had many questions in his mind, but he also immediately realized that Yang Jia seemed to be hinting that he should talk about it later.

He reacted quickly and immediately stopped talking, simply nodding.

Let's go!

Yang Jia stepped closer, grasped Xiao Xiao's hand, and said, "Let's leave first. Mister Ye will handle the aftermath for us."

"Good!"

Xiao Xiao didn't say much and planned to leave with her.

However, Old Zhou Under the Bridge, Red Eyes Ling Ping, the Serpent Sisters, and others all had slight changes in expression and moved forward at the same time. The complex expressions on their faces were visible. Even the Serpent Sisters, whose faces were not visible, could see the inner turmoil and tension in their twisting waists and gripping toes. Clearly, they all had a lot to say...

The Rotten Kingdom has been dealt with, but Black Gate City has even more to handle.

At this point, they could no longer hide like the problem of the Rotten Kingdom; they had no choice but to confront it head-on.

Yang Jia paused slightly, looked up at them, and said, "No need, everyone."

"I know you all have a lot to say, and I do have some things that need to be discussed with you."

"But now, I need to take my companions back to rest first."

"I will inform you of the meeting time later."

"..."

Hearing her words, everyone looked embarrassed, but they couldn't say anything more and slowly made way for her.

The landscape of Black Gate City has been reshuffled, and that's a done deal.

Before the problem of the Rotten Kingdom was solved, they had been avoiding Yang Jia and even deliberately making things difficult for him. But now that the problem of the Rotten Kingdom has been solved, Yang Jia has gained the initiative. Since he told them to wait, they have no choice but to wait.

"Leave together?"

Yang Jia pulled Xiao Xiao and looked at Ruan Ruan and Little Four.

Both of them bore obvious signs of battle, their Ruan Ruan skirts stained with rotting blood and broken bones, a truly horrifying sight. If it weren't for the shocking scene at Xiao Xiao's place, she should have been the one to symbolize violence. Meanwhile, Little Four's pants were loose, and it seemed that her belt wasn't even tied tightly.

"No..."

Ruan Ruan saw Yang Jia looking over, she waved her hand and said, "I'm not hurt."

"Besides, I've just found a new owner and I'm in a hurry to go home."

"..."

When Little Four saw Yang Jia's gaze fall on him, he immediately shrank back. "I don't need one either, there are shared bikes over there..."

I don't want to ride in the same car as him...

Yang Jia was certain that the two of them would be alright, so she simply nodded and left the neighborhood with Xiao Xiao.

The others watched, Mingming anxious, but unable to say anything to stop it.

After Yang Jia left, many people immediately looked at Ruan Ruan and Little Four, clearly having a lot to ask. But Ruan Ruan just rolled her eyes at everyone. "You want to know about Xiao-gege, right? Hehe, call me Daddy and I'll tell you..."

Everyone was immediately embarrassed: How could they greet him in front of so many people?

Ruan Ruan, haughty and arrogant, ignored them, whistled as she left the neighborhood, carried her motorcycle, and rode away.

However, the good-natured Little Four was suddenly surrounded by people, and all sorts of questions came one after another.

Little Four was suddenly cornered against the wall and was almost scared to tears:

When did that newcomer join your team?

"I don't know..."

"What stage of enhanced ability is he?"

"I don't know..."

When did he start his habit of feeding human flesh to dogs?

"... I dare not say!"

"..."

"..."

"The Taboo Museum, what exactly is it?"

On the other side, after getting into the car with Yang Jia, Xiao Xiao immediately asked anxiously.

"The Ultimate Weapon Containment Facility".

Yang Jia also looked solemn. As he started the car, he said, "Only the most powerful, twisted, and mysterious items from each city are collected in this museum. The highest level is S-grade, and the next is Class A. Each item possesses extremely terrifying abilities or corresponding potential. Black Gate City has at most two or three such items..."

"These are the most coveted and sought-after weapons by all strangers, but obtaining them is extremely difficult."

"..."

"Actually, I find it hard to understand either."

She spoke in a low voice, her brows furrowed. "It's almost impossible for something so terrifying to be born in a Class B crisis."

"I think it's probably because the matter of the Rotten Kingdom has dragged on for too long, and the Pain Substance has had a deep-seated impact, that some changes have occurred that we couldn't have predicted... or there are some other reasons that we don't know about that caused this forbidden item to appear."

"In short, this is a very rare phenomenon."

"This means that during our mission just now, we encountered a threat that could be described as taboo, and this..."

"... That's exactly what I wanted to ask you."

"..."

She turned her gaze to Xiao Xiao: "How did you manage to survive in the face of something like this?"

"I..."

Xiao Xiao hesitated for a moment when asked the question, and after a long while, he said, "I just gave her a hug..."

Yang Jia looked at him in silence.

"It's true."

Xiao Xiao said, "I can sense that she has no ill will towards the world. Only those she perceives as bad people will become distorted. I can sense this subtle feeling in her, so I chose to give her a hug..."

Yang Jia remained silent, but his pupils visibly trembled.

After a long silence, he said in a low voice, "It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that I really find it hard to imagine..."

"How could you dare to hug something so terrifying?"

"..."

Xiao Xiao was at a loss for words: because he genuinely felt she needed such a hug?

Although he felt a little scared afterward, deep down he didn't regret it at all.

On the contrary, after listening to Yang Jia's words, he suddenly realized a problem:

If this little girl is something that even the City Will consider exceptionally powerful and taboo.

So, the opportunity he perceived at the time to kill her was just an illusion.

If I had fired the gun, I would still have been the one to die.

On the contrary, the hug I gave her just now, which was triggered by my emotions, was the only way to solve the problem.

... So this mission is really that dangerous?

"In any case, we can really say we were lucky this time..."

Seeing Xiao Xiao fall silent, Yang Jia sighed softly, "Once he was included, he became Class A forbidden, and even ranked in the top twenty."

"Most importantly, I can clearly sense that she is not yet fully developed."

"If the city's will helps her complete the task, who knows how much further her ranking will advance?"

"Perhaps even, it's possible to reach S-rank?"

"..."

The more she thought about it, the more strange her expression became, as she thought about the look the girl gave Xiao Xiao before she disappeared.

Unable to contain himself, he exclaimed, "This powerful, forbidden-level weapon has actually been created before our very eyes, and it has even formed a bond with you..."

"If you could grow to the point where you could deal with forbidden things..."

She spoke slowly, then turned to look at Xiao Xiao and whispered, "I think you will have a rare stroke of luck."

"This..."

Xiao Xiao also thought of the look that girl gave him before she disappeared.

Suddenly, I felt a bit conflicted.

But Yang Jia's words did not lift his spirits. He thought silently for a long time before finally saying:

"I've also been thinking about this question: What exactly is this city doing?"

"If it is indeed its will that is influencing all of this, controlling all the indigenous people..."

"Then why do so many tragic things always happen in this city?"

"..."

Yang Jia was somewhat surprised that he would ask such a question. After a moment of silence, she gently shook her head and said:

"That's no longer within our mission."

"Don't you think it's already a remarkable achievement that we were able to solve such a problem and survive?"

"..."

"Yes..."

Thinking back to the danger he had just faced, Xiao Xiao suddenly smiled wryly, realizing that he was indeed thinking about more and more problems.

Perhaps this is a side effect of the insightful approach?

"Go back and get some rest first. I'll discuss the distribution of the mission points with Mister Ye."

Yang Jia spoke softly, "This mission is a little different from what we planned."

"I made a mistake at first, thinking that the guy known as the Jin Biao in the real dimension was the core of the Rotten Kingdom. But I later found out that the Jin Biao was just a slightly more powerful Rotten leader. The real core was the one you dealt with."

"Therefore, you've taken the lead in this mission."

"I think this also has some unusual significance in the eyes of the City Will."

"..."

"Um..."

Xiao Xiao casually agreed, his mind preoccupied, without giving it much thought.

Instead, she was slightly surprised. "They're giving me points? Is it a big bonus?"

The image of the Butcher's transformation after that horrific massacre flashed through his mind, and he thought in astonishment:

"I thought I had already made all the money I could..."

"..."

It feels like I only gave a hug, but I've gained so much in return. I feel a little uneasy...
