Chapter 124 -123: I Stand Above the Clouds, Wielding the Thunderbolt! (Seeking Monthly Passes)

“Time is up.”

“I… as the Maggot Man performing the sacrifice, will open this world’s hunting ground to please the Great ‘Shadow of Darkness’. May He bestow… endless mighty power.”

“Hiss-hiss-hiss—”

The head entwined with countless maggots gradually changed, transforming into an ordinary human face.

In his eyes were two worlds.

One was reality, Blue Star, where massive figures emerged from the grey mist.

...

The other was beneath reality, the Ghastly Realm, prepared with many ‘little pets’, hoping… the prey of this world would like them.

Hiss-hiss… chuckle-chuckle…

…

“To arms!”

“To arms!”

Mysterious Evil came rolling in like a tide, but after battling for most of the day, both investigators and Mysterious Evil hunters had gained much experience in facing hordes of Mysterious Evil.

And having just rested for a while, they had regained quite a bit of strength.

The fight they put up seemed not so difficult.

“This is the Gate of Hell? Doesn’t seem that hard, Older Brother Xing.”

A ghoul’s hand smacked down on the Mysterious Evil, and immediately someone used an Awakened Ability to follow through with the attack.

Having been baptized by battle, everyone seemed a bit different.

Xing Jing Lei also felt that this wave wasn’t strong but there must be a reason why the mentor specifically asked him to accompany the bureau.

It couldn’t be that simple.

“Do not be careless.”

“If it could be so easily dealt with, there would be no need for the special forces and the bureau to go to such lengths.”

…

“It would naturally be good if it could end simply, but I fear… it can’t.”

The time and place prophesied by that mysterious email were exceedingly accurate.

Indeed, just like the other five Gates of Hell, it opened at the same time.

Huang Hongtian didn’t believe there wasn’t something fishy about it.

He turned his head, “The task of observing the battlefield relies on you now.”

Luo Sha nodded, spreading her red and black energy wings and soared into the sky.

Not far away,

An Jianyou gave her orders,

“Number one, use a charge to tear through the Evil Tide!”

“Number three, hold the line, dual hooks spinning!”

With her command, the Mysterious Evil were capable of more tactical maneuvers, and An Jianyou, who had been holding back her Awakened Ability ‘Enhancement’, chose this moment to deploy it.

It enveloped the large Number One ‘Bone Knight’ and Number Three ‘Stitched Monster’.

For a moment, the Bone Knight was unstoppable, capable of toppling comparable Mysterious Evil with just a few thrusts, while the Stitched Monster turned into a spinning meat grinder, annihilating everything in its path.

The sight was shocking.

The gentle and frail Miss An refreshed their perspectives once again.

An Jianyou simply stared into the distance, “Instructor, I’ve cleared the path, but it might not hold for long.”

“Hmm.”

Black Blade responded carelessly, dragging the Evil-Slaying Greatsword and stepped forward.

With every step, he quickened his pace.

He became a fierce gale, charging unstoppably into the vast sea of Mysterious Evil.

As he burst in, monsters flew, and a red line continued to spread through the grey-black tide.

“Damn! I’m charging in too!”

Xing Jing Lei clenched his knuckledusters, ignoring the crowd of weaklings saying, “Boss, don’t be reckless,” “Boss, we shouldn’t do this,” and shot out like a cannonball, his fists swinging continuously, all guns blazing.

Cannon Punch, Cannon Punch, Cannon Punch, Cannon Punch!

Boom, boom, boom——!

It was as if countless shells had fallen, plowing the ground over and over, dust filling the sky, the Mysterious Evil bursting, with the man named Xing Jing Lei crashing in like a battle tank.

His eyes were fixed on the man dragging a streak of red light.

Surrender? Impossible!

Not far away, in midair.

Watching those two figures breaking into the tide of Mysterious Evil, Luo Sha’s blood boiled with excitement.

How could he, the commander of the special forces, just stand by and watch while civilian Awakeners fought desperately? He took out his walkie-talkie and said to Director Huang, “I’m leaving the command to you.”

Then he dove straight down at an angle, like a cone plummeting towards the ground.

Charge! Charge again! Keep charging!

At first, it wasn’t difficult. This wave of Mysterious Evil seemed not so strong, as Luo Sha weaved in and out with the ease and momentum of splitting bamboo.

Everything seemed to be going smoothly until, at a certain moment, suddenly,

Boom——

The ground cracked open, and a huge worm burrowed out. He shot upwards sharply.

A screech came from the sky, as a giant bird with a human face dove towards him… Luo Sha moved sideways in a swift lunge, avoiding the creature’s attack and piercing one half of the bird’s wing, black feathers falling down.

Yet, from not far off, a green ghostly flame roared towards him, like a net.

It was the Gui Lantern’s ghostly flame, but this one belonged to an enemy!

The green ghostly flame grew larger in Luo Sha’s eyes.

An explosive wave hit from the side, blasting the ghostly flame apart and whizzing past him.

“Thanks!”

With the three of them working together, an ordinary three-star Mysterious Evil could be instantly defeated.

However, the three-star Mysterious Evil in this place started to increase, and it seemed they even learned to cooperate with one another.

In the sky, underground.

Walking, flying, crawling.

Close combat, long-range.

Their incursion to this point had become difficult at every step and the count of three-star Mysterious Evil kills had stopped increasing for a long while.

They could only wound, not kill.

Unless they exchanged life for life, but that was not an option.

“Something’s not right about this situation, it’s as if someone is controlling these Mysterious Evil.” Luo Sha said, “It might not be as sophisticated as Miss An’s control, but if you look carefully, the Mysterious Evil around us are trying to stop us, not break out.”

“Captain Luo is right!” Xing Jing Lei agreed.

Black Blade didn’t say anything, his hands continuously moving, his Evil-Slaying Greatsword never stopping. But those Mysterious Evil were like a high wall, firmly blocking their way.

And constantly reducing their operational range.

Suddenly,

The grey fog in the distance breathed again, and as it exhaled more fierce figures, ripples appeared on the water curtain above it.

It reflected a scene like a mirage.

It was like a mirror that also showed a withered forest and land overrun by Mysterious Evil, but upon close inspection… the number of Mysterious Evil inside the mirror was much more, more than ten times that of the outside!

Mysterious Evil pressed against Mysterious Evil, continuously surging.

And among them were several incredibly huge and terrifying figures.

They were like small mountains.

They were like demons.

Even a glance through space and time brought a coldness to the heart, a chill that shot straight to the crown of the head.

“What, what is that?”

“Another world?”

“The Gate of Hell, could it truly be connected to hell?”

The Mysterious Evil Hunters and investigators were trembling slightly.

Even without a direct confrontation, I just couldn’t control myself.

The unease in Director Huang’s heart grew even worse.

He had called together Awakeners early on to exterminate the surrounding Mysterious Evils, continuously breaking through, but now it seemed it was still not enough.

The Gate of Hell was clearly not far away, yet it felt as if separated by an insurmountable chasm.

Impassable.

The monsters in the mirror seemed about to step out and moreover, it was very likely that they were being manipulated by some hidden force. Once such a monster started rampaging…

“Stop them at all costs!”

He bellowed.

Many special forces members were yelling.

However, many times, things do not shift according to human will.

The mirage above the grey mist gradually became clearer, and suddenly, a brilliant Thunderbolt fell, piercing the night sky, shattering the noise.

Boom—!

…

A quarter hour earlier,

On the mountain, Fang You was looking around.

One after another, the howling Mysterious Evils entered his sight, and the map of the surroundings unfolded in front of him.

But there was nothing special about the map.

His field of vision also revealed nothing unusual.

But there had to be something; the mirage in the sky was getting clearer and clearer, the gateway to the Ghastly Realm seemed to be violently forced open, stretched wider.

To make way for them, those several four-star Mysterious Evils.

Four stars!

Several of them!

Fang You’s scalp tingled as he swept his gaze over inch by inch, while also calling out Xiao Huan to search together.

Search! Faster! Even faster!

Where exactly is it?

Fang You’s gaze quickly swept over, then paused slightly at a certain point.

The three-star Mysterious Evil in his view was somewhat quiet.

Too quiet, it hadn’t moved at all.

Mysterious Evils are all hyperactive.

This Mysterious Evil’s huge body blocked his view, and he swiftly shifted to another position.

He saw it!

He used the ‘Detection’ skill!

‘Flesh Altar’

‘Effect: ???’

The specific effect couldn’t be detected, but its existence was different from that of Mysterious Evils; this was an anomaly.

Found it!

“Xiao Huan, tally up the three-star Mysterious Evils around us that haven’t moved!”

“Okay, Master.”

“It’s done, there are a total of eight locations within the field of vision, here… here… here… and here…”

She directly accessed the detection map, maximizing it, and marked them one by one.

Fang You scanned them one by one.

The next moment, he dispelled the Lightless state of Lantern White Robe, thrust a Thunderbolt from his hand, and it burst with a loud bang.

…

Boom—!

Director Huang looked up.

The Thunderbolt lit up but disappeared in an instant, yet it seemed like the night was no longer dark.

In the darkness, the Maggot Man looked up, showing a human-like surprise.

“One node… has been destroyed.”

“How can this be…”

Boom—!

Another Thunderbolt fell, illuminating his increasingly astonished face.

“This can’t be…”

Boom—!

Boom—!

Boom—!

Blue-purple Thunderbolts, one after another, with terrifying destructive power, obliterated the huge three-star Mysterious Evil and shattered the Flesh Altar to pieces.

Above the grey mist, the mirage gradually blurred.

Fearsome Mysterious Evils let out low growls, growing more distant.

“Did we succeed?”

Director Huang showed a look of joy.

“It’s the instructor!” An Jianyou let out a smile, feeling relieved and proud, searching around.

The investigators, special forces members, and Mysterious Evil Hunters all let out a long sigh of relief, the chilling coldness was moving away.

Suddenly,

It was like falling into an abyss!

Click—

The fuzzy mirror cracked, tiny white worms poured back, and an unremarkable shadowy figure became gaunt.

At the same time, from the broken mirror, a terrifying figure emerged.

It resembled a centipede, its body aflame with raging Dark Flames, stretching twenty to thirty meters in length, and when half its body stood erect, it was like a skyscraper.

Around it, the Mysterious Evils that touched its body were ignited with Dark Flames.

Turned to ashes.

“Ah—!”

An Awakener screamed in agony, wanting to gouge out his own eyes, but the next moment he combusted entirely.

Ignited by Dark Flames, he instantly turned to ash.

The Dark Flames were still spreading.

Fear was spreading.

“Feast… all of this is delicious… offer a sacrifice to the glorious ‘Darkness’s Shade’.”

The gaunt Maggot Man let out a deranged laugh.

The laughter suddenly ceased.

A dazzling blue-purple lightning streak pierced the night sky.

A figure holding Thunder stepped out from a distant mountaintop.

One step, two steps, three steps, as if walking a bridge between heaven and earth, he reached above the clouds, seizing the resounding Thunder, like a god of thunder, he cast down divine retribution.

Boom boom boom boom boom—

Nine dragon-like Thunderbolts crashed down, unleashing apocalyptic might, enveloping the skyscraper-like Dark Flame centipede.

The flames were retreating.

The Thunder raged on.

The splendid lightning blossomed like a flower of annihilation.

For a moment, the world was blue, highlighting the towering figure among the clouds.
