Chapter 26 Let's not blow it up yet.
Erii's eyes were indifferent, and she drew her long sword without expression.
Huo Yuhao: ...
He looked helplessly at the crowd, especially at those executioners from the Enforcement Bureau: "The Uesugi family head just wanted to come down and tour the family's properties. You guys don't want to upset him, do you?"
Putting aside whether they knew Erii's strength, given Erii's status as a young lady, how could those executive bureau cadres dare to be presumptuous?
The executive officer gritted his teeth: "You bastard, how exactly did you bewitch the Uesugi family head?!"
Huo Yuhao smiled, and instead of answering, asked, "So, you're going to stand in front of the Uesugi family head?"
The executive officer's face was dark, but he still raised his right hand to signal everyone to make way.
Huo Yuhao and Erii swaggered towards the core area.
After entering this place, Huo Yuhao discovered that they were less than 300 meters away from Kaguya's true form.
When he was exploring the fourteenth floor, the maximum one-way distance that his mental power could reach was 500 meters, which was barely enough to detect the possible location of Kaguya's mainframe.
Huo Yuhao's condition is still not very good, so his detection range is relatively small, only about 20 meters in radius.
But it's just enough for me.
However, he wasn't sure where Chu Zihang and Caesar were now.
He hadn't noticed anything unusual, and he couldn't even be sure if the two people were safe.
However, they were genuine executive officers, all with strong capabilities, unlike Lu Mingfei, who could only temporarily rely on his abilities. Therefore, Huo Yuhao wasn't particularly worried about them.
Because Huo Yuhao had Erii, the Tsukuyomi, under his control, all they could see along the way was the Hebi-Hachi family gritting their teeth at him, daring not to speak out against him.
"How much longer until the patriarch arrives?" an executive asked his subordinate, who had already contacted Genjiro, with a grim face.
The subordinate looked bitter: "The patriarch hasn't replied. Brother Crow and Brother Yaksha said that the patriarch is being entangled by the Dragon King of the Fierce Ghost Clan."
The executives were shocked: "Has the Dragon King of the Fierce Ghost Clan finally appeared?"
The Dragon King they referred to was not one of the four great monarchs of the dragon race, but rather the Dragon King in shogi, the code name for the leader of the Oni Clan.
Two days ago, the family raided the Paradise Mansion and executed Ryoma, the third leader of the Demon Clan, but to this day no one knows who the Demon Clan's first leader, King Sho, and second leader, Dragon King, really are.
The executive officer gritted his teeth, staring intently at Huo Yuhao's retreating figure: "Keep a close eye on him. The patriarch will take care of that Dragon King soon!"
Once the patriarch arrives, the Uesugi family head will definitely no longer be misled by that guy!
"Eri, the brother you mentioned before, is it Genjiro?" Huo Yuhao only remembered to ask Erii after hearing the executive's words.
Lu Mingfei was unaware of the internal affairs of the Snake Clan, and Huo Yuhao was even less aware of them.
Erii nodded.
She was feeling a little bored.
Everywhere she looked, there were researchers in white coats, which reminded her of the doctors and nurses.
Although she knew those people were there to treat her illness, she had been surrounded by them almost every time she could remember, so she actually disliked people in white coats.
Huo Yuhao also noticed that Erii didn't like the researchers, so he gradually quickened his pace and finished the hot coffee in his pocket.
This stuff had a negligible effect on Huo Yuhao, but it did replenish some sugar and made his headache feel a little better.
Between constantly using his mental detection to search for Kaguya's mainframe and kidnapping a researcher to extract the results, Huo Yuhao chose the latter.
He had overused his mental energy today, and the mental exhaustion made his body feel increasingly heavy.
His phone still had a little battery left, and Huo Yuhao needed to use the electronic key in the phone, so he didn't dare to use it for the time being.
Otherwise, he would ask the little devil for help to solve his current predicament.
"Eri, put the knife to this researcher's neck." Huo Yuhao grabbed an older researcher whose life energy was relatively active in his perception and said to Erii.
Erii immediately became interested and, without saying a word, put the long sword to the poor researcher's neck.
"Where is Princess Kaguya's main computer?"
The researcher glanced at Erii with a complicated expression, then asked Huo Yuhao, "What are you going to do?"
Huo Yuhao smiled: "Let's go see for ourselves."
The researcher didn't believe his nonsense, nor did he believe that Erii had really been bewitched by Huo Yuhao and would kill him because of a single sentence from Huo Yuhao.
Even if Erii is truly controlled by some kind of Word of Power, the researchers are determined to fight to the death rather than let Huo Yuhao succeed!
Huo Yuhao wasn't surprised by the result. He had found a pass on the researcher and even snatched his work badge. Just as the researcher frowned, a mental interference was launched, and he asked again, "Where is Kaguya's mainframe?"
The researcher, looking dazed, said, "The lunar layer."
Huo Yuhao got the answer and, without any hesitation, knocked the researcher unconscious in front of everyone.
Enforcement Bureau Commissioners: "..."
"Notify the lunar layer to strengthen defenses."
Even if the guards are strengthened, they probably won't be able to stop Erii, but the message that needs to be conveyed still cannot be omitted.
Erii sheathed her sword and wrote in her notebook: Shall we go to the lunar layer?
Huo Yuhao nodded.
However, things are a bit tricky now. So many people are watching them, and Princess Kaguya is constantly monitoring them. It seems difficult to reach the lunar layer smoothly.
With things having come to this point, Huo Yuhao had no choice but to grit his teeth and continue.
He and Erii found the elevator that continued downwards and closed the elevator doors under the watchful eyes of a group of people.
It must be said that Princess Kaguya's hiding place was very well concealed, with no direct way to reach it; one could only arrive by repeatedly taking elevators.
When Huo Yuhao and Erii transferred trains for the third time, they ran into an acquaintance here.
Chu Zihang actually managed to get to this level?
How did he do that?
Seeing Huo Yuhao kidnap Erii, Chu Zihang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Perhaps due to his makeup, Chu Zihang was not recognized. He was mistaken for an ordinary executive bureau officer and eventually made his way to the ninth underground level.
He was incredibly lucky tonight, getting down to the third underground level before the actual executive officers, and then coincidentally encountering a mission that required escorting materials down, which allowed him to successfully reach his current location.
But his luck ran out.
The lunar layer is under martial law; no one is allowed to descend to the lunar layer now.
Huo Yuhao and Erii reunited with Chu Zihang.
Now that we've arrived here, it seems our only option is to force our way through.
"Senior, I've found the elevator shaft leading to Kaguya-hime's main unit. It seems we'll have no choice but to force our way through the elevator shaft."
Without saying a word, Chu Zihang pulled out C4.
Huo Yuhao remained silent: "Senior brother, is it possible that I'll be killed in the explosion before Kaguya's mainframe is damaged?"
