Chapter 98
With the death of Cretaceous Immortal, the white memory light spot also came to an end.
The origin of those light spots is the record of the Immortal Lord Bai Ke's own memory, which is specially designed for the successors of Bai Ke Lan and Jiuyou Mirror. Only when they come to the underworld and the situation is critical, will they automatically appear in front of the successors.
"It turns out that Ceob's boss is... a mysterious creature born from the depths of the Nine Abyss, composed of strange and evil thoughts - Chi..."
Gu Qingming recalled the previous clues and every statement made by the boss, and found that everything was finally connected into a complete circle.
Four hundred years ago, Chi somehow escaped from the death of the Cretaceous Immortal. After recuperating for four hundred years, he recently revived and created the organization of wandering supernatural beings, Keobe, to collect the five elements of talismans and try to open the Gate of Jiuyuan that had been forcibly closed by the Cretaceous Immortal and the Nine Nether Lord.
During this process, he noticed that the young men who were recognized by the supernatural powers of their familiar old enemies did not kill them, perhaps because they thought they were not to be feared or because he had other conspiracies.
The Gate of Jiuyuan was originally working normally, but was destroyed by the army of wronged souls led by Chi, and then sealed by the death of Cretaceous Immortal Lord and Jiuyou Lord. Recently, due to the age, the seal left by Cretaceous Immortal Lord has become increasingly loose, and CPA has no choice but to summon powerful monarch-level psychics to allocate their strength to support the seal.
Cao Sheng's power is supported at the front layer and bears most of the pressure. This is why he is the one who works the hardest every time when repairing the seal.
It would be abnormal for a human being to be in good health and resist the erosion of the Nine Abysses.
After realizing this, Gu Qingming and Chu Zhongyuan felt a little scared.
Fortunately, Cao Sheng himself is a very powerful space monarch-level psychic, otherwise, if it were someone else, they might not have survived until now.
Fortunately, they are here now.
"I saw the message they left, did you?"
Gu Qingming rubbed his solar plexus which was aching from receiving too much information, and turned to Chu Zhongyuan who was standing beside him.
"Of course, maybe we can really create a miracle."
There was an inappropriate excitement in his tone, which seemed particularly bright even in the underworld where lonely souls were roaming and spirits were flying everywhere.
The memories left by Cretaceous Immortal Lord contained methods on how to repair the Gate of the Nine Abysses. However, the evil spirit tide that Cretaceous Immortal Lord and Lord Jiuyou faced at that time was too fierce, and the Gate of the Nine Abyss was almost destroyed in an instant. They could only choose to seal the gap at the cost of their lives, and there was no time to repair it.
"Fuck the sacrifice, fuck the price, fuck the game of finding each other."
Gu Qingming murmured, his voice so low as if he was talking to himself.
It was the first time that Chu Zhongyuan saw such sharp anger in classmate Xiao Ming, who was like a suppressed hurricane, but in fact he felt the same way. All the mess was stuck in his chest. He had no time to relieve it and think about it. He could only concentrate and tell himself that as long as the Nine Abyss Gate was repaired, everything would be reversed.
Gu Qingming was really angry. The disaster caused by Chi had lasted for four hundred years, harming countless righteous people who could have saved more people. It also destroyed the peaceful life of him and his companions, and his relatives and family members were missing as well, with their lives and deaths unknown.
Gu Qingming had no doubt that the disappearance of his mother and father was definitely related to the Jiuyuan Gate, but it was not clear yet.
"Let's go to the Gate of Jiuyuan."
Gu Qingming held the bronze spear tightly in his hand, and Chu Zhongyuan swung out the soul-catching rope and followed him in two steps.
"Definitely, definitely get there faster than that bastard."
In the howling cold wind, countless ghostly faces were moaning and confessing something. The ghost messengers and mysterious spirits who had died in the past disaster also seemed to be crying bitterly. They did not attack the two teenagers, but instead used sad songs to guide the two teenagers in the direction of progress.
Gu Qingming and Chu Zhongyuan, who were traveling on the Yellow Springs Road at the moment, had no idea that all sorts of strange things had begun to happen around the various cracks connecting the underworld and the human world.
"The evil ghosts and vengeful spirits that were released from the underworld are starting to go crazy... You came to CPA to ask for help for such a big thing, but where is the Lord of Hell?"
Lin Yuan was still wearing his fox mask, but his voice was no longer as gentle as usual. It sounded anxious and had a hint of anger.
"Yesterday, Lord Yan brought all the masters of the underworld to the underworld in the western district, where reincarnation takes place, to hold a meeting with the underworld lords of other gods."
The judge who ran out from the chaotic underworld hurriedly began to explain that Chi, the leader of Ceope and the embodiment of the most evil and sinners' consciousness in the Nine Abysses, had clearly calculated that the King of Hell would be absent and the underworld would be empty, so he began his plan here.
"... Jiang Lanye, Lu Ze and I will go together."
Cao Sheng stood up. CPA had been very busy recently due to the mysterious concentration increase, and only the three of them could bring out high-end combat power. However, the three of them were enough.
The rising period of mysterious concentration refers to the periodic changes in the concentration of global mysterious factors, which basically takes fifty years as a cycle. When it is in the rising period, manpower will become very scarce everywhere, because no matter how big or small the mystery is, it will become abnormally active due to the rise of mysterious factors, even if they do not want to do so.
After the secret realm of the Holy Tomb in the Snowy Region, Ceober's manpower was basically destroyed. This time, the only ones who could accompany the leader were a few high-level officials and those who were not afraid of death for the moment of making a wish. With a lot of help from CPA, the problem was easily solved.
Compared with the increasing concentration of mystery, Ceope does not seem to stand out too much.
Tsk, how come these Ceopeians happen to be causing trouble at the time when the mysterious concentration increases once every fifty years?
"You just sealed the Nine Abyss Gate, why don't you let me--"
Before Lin Yuan finished speaking, Cao Sheng waved his hand.
"I have a reason to go. I have recently found a lot of information following the clues left by Sister Nan Feng. No matter what, that boss must know something. Before I hand him over to the Law Society, I want to ask him what I want to know."
Cao Sheng rarely showed such a resolute expression. Lin Yuan kept silent. He knew that he could not persuade these young people who went crazy once they made a decision. He could only help Cao Sheng add some talismans to ward off evil spirits.
"I won't stop you. You, Lu Ze, Jiang Lanye and the others must be careful."
Lin Yuan rubbed his temples with a headache.
"CPA has its own scheduling. I just watch from the sidelines and help out when help is needed."
"That's also very grateful."
Cao Sheng patted Lin Yuan on the shoulder and yawned.
It was now dark outside. Yama had just left when Keobe arrived. She had chosen such a disgusting time as the middle of the night. It was really hard to tell whether she did it on purpose.
Cao Sheng sounded the CPA's emergency rendezvous order.
"Family members, get up and work overtime, Ceobe has stolen the house!"
He sent the voice message to the task release section of CPAAPP, named this task "Final Defense Battle" with a strong middle school atmosphere, put on the CPA uniform, and walked out of the meeting room.
"receive!"
"received."
"The technical department is in place!"
"The Cyber Detective Department is in place..."
"Logistics department is in place!"
Countless responses came from the APP. As people moved, the lights in the CPA building, which had been dark, began to light up one by one, as if guiding travelers in the night.
In the corridor that should have been empty, Jiang Lanye and Lu Ze, also wearing CPA uniforms, were standing there, showing Cao Sheng a determined smile.
"Let's go! We must take down those losers once and for all this time!"
Jiang Lanye clenched his fist and made a cheering gesture, and Lu Ze nodded repeatedly on the side.
"Of course."
Cao Sheng strode forward like the wind. He knew that he had companions who would catch up with him no matter what.
On the other side, Luo Dong and Zheng Qiuji, who received the distress messages from Gu Qingming and Chu Zhongyuan before they fell into the underworld in the middle of the night, secretly ran out of their homes and met outside the door of Gu Qingming's empty home.
"I just visited Chu Zhongyuan's home, and there was no one there..."
Zheng Qiuji's brows were tightly furrowed. He had just called Boss Cao, but for some reason, Boss Cao seemed to be very busy and the line was always busy.
"There is a large-scale task on the APP that has no limit on the number of people. It is related to the underworld. It requires all the superpowers present to be alert and prepare to eliminate the underworld monsters that come out of the nearest space crack."
Luo Dong's voice was filled with anxiety. In order to run away from home, he didn't even have time to explain to his father and the nanny. He jumped directly from the second-floor balcony, just to rush to Gu Qingming and Chu Zhongyuan's home to check on their conditions.
"Could it be related to the Nine Abyss Gate? This shouldn't be the case...they were clearly at home before they disappeared..."
Zheng Qiuji thought about the differences between Gu Qingming and Chu Zhongyuan's situations and his and Luo Dong's. They were all people who were being chased by the past more than 400 years ago, and sooner or later they would have to pay for the Jiuyuan Gate that had already been badly damaged.
This was the indelible fate of those two guys after they were chosen by Bai Ke Lan and Jiu You Jing.
Fate, fate, terrible fate made Ceobe take away his companions. The young boy died to cover his escape from Ceobe's hands. Now it wants to take away their companions?
"Zheng Qiuji! Wake up!"
Luo Dong's loud scream pulled Zheng Qiuji out of his nightmare-like bad mood. He looked in the direction of the boy's terrified expression and saw a familiar figure running not far away. This time, there was no cold-blooded sniper by his side, only Monks.
"Wait—what are you going to do—?"
Monks' undercover identity has not been confirmed. Zheng Qiuji and Luo Dong instinctively stepped forward and stood in front of Monks because of their sense of responsibility as CPAs.
"Why are you two here again?"
Monks looked extremely helpless, as if he was defeated by his bad luck.
"Don't stop me. I'm in a hurry to go to the underworld, or maybe you two little guys also want to experience the feeling of being bugged."
Monks snapped his fingers. He looked quite embarrassed. When he was having a sophistry conversation with Ceobe just now, the other party suddenly left. He had finally chased her here. He absolutely could not let Ceobe's most mysterious senior executive get away.
Zheng Qiuji and Luo Dong looked at each other and spoke at the same time.
“We want to go too!”
"Oh,"
Monks almost laughed out of anger: "Do you know how dangerous the underworld is now?"
"It's because of the danger that we two auxiliary departments have to go."
Luo Dong and Zheng Qiuji's eyes were full of determination. They looked at Monks without fear. The latter suddenly realized that these two high school students might have discovered his undercover identity, so they dared to ask him for help.
"The underworld is not a place you can just go to. It's filled with death and all kinds of monsters. Do you really want to go there?"
Monks was helpless in the face of that determined look, he sighed, since his identity had been exposed, there was no need to pretend to be hostile anymore, he had to explain to two high school students who should have never been to the underworld how terrifying the underworld was.
Who knew that Luo Dong and Zheng Qiuji would not appreciate it at all: "No need to say so much, just go."
"We have to help our companions defeat their fate, no matter how dangerous it is, even if it's through mountains of swords and seas of fire, we have to give it a try."
Zheng Qiuji turned his head, looked into Monks' eyes, and explained.
"You're really... young."
Monks looked at the familiar dazzling determination, as if he had gone back in time and saw the friend who had fought with him back then.
They were also very young at that time, and could show the same high-spirited smile as the teenagers.
It was because of them who were sacrificing themselves that he embarked on this not-so-honest undercover journey.
