Chapter 928: Demonic Sacrifice Swallows Resentment
After a path was blasted out of the honeycomb-shaped building, Xu Chan led a team of fighters and rushed in quickly.
The elite team that came in later quickly occupied the area around the passage and escorted Director Lei and Lan Shen Gu to follow behind them. The rest of the ordinary team members quickly spread out to the surroundings and occupied various high positions.
Xu Chan rushed to the front holding a protective shield. He was not wearing any protective clothing or a gas mask, and the same was true for several third-level fighters behind him.
Because the heavy protective clothing greatly hinders their movements and the masks also affect their vision, but their own resistance is enough to exist in such an environment for a long time without much impact. To talk about danger, this environment is far worse than some places in the fusion area.
Not long after they broke through, they saw a yellow-green mist spreading towards them and immediately felt uncomfortable. They felt a numbness and itching in their mouths and noses with every breath, but the alienated tissues inside their bodies soon began to move spontaneously, allowing them to recover quickly.
But even so, one could see that clusters of mycelium-like things quickly stuck to the protective gear of some people in the back, and the number of them kept increasing.
Xu Chan realized that this thing was not simple, and immediately used the boundary certificate to take care of it: "Dispatch a team of technical experts and cleanup personnel, and have them come up with a plan as soon as possible."
Just after he finished speaking, he saw these things stuck to his neck, hair and skin. He just exerted some strength and shook them off. However, these things were everywhere and kept sticking to him, which required him to deal with them every once in a while.
As more and more similar things appeared, even the vision was affected, and the information coming out of the world began to become blurred. This was the combined effect of these things and some kind of field interference creatures.
He realized that they had just encountered a real obstacle, but one that they had to overcome.
He ordered people to push up several searchlights from the rear, but just as they were lit, he heard gunshots and the lampshades were shattered one after another. At this time, he caught a glimpse of a flash of light in the fog and immediately said "Disperse". At the same time, the sound of machine guns was heard in front.
The fighters reacted very quickly, and after they came in, they tried their best to find cover to move forward, and did not stand straight in the front, so when the machine gun swept over, most of them dodged. Even if a few people were hit, they were blocked by the close-fitting protective clothing and tough bones on their bodies, and were basically not seriously injured.
At this time, Yuan Qiyuan, who was hiding aside, suddenly felt something. He shouted, raised his stick and smashed it forward. With a bang, a person who suddenly appeared there was instantly blown up by him. The strange thing was that what spilled out was not internal organs and blood, but dirty stuff like mud, and above it was swirling a thick yellow-green mist.
He instinctively felt the need to distance himself from these things, so he took a step back. As he moved, the mist beside him swirled outward, and a wisp of energy shot out from within the mist toward him. He immediately blocked it with his staff, but the force was so powerful it shook the staff. Because his center of gravity was already shifting, his footing was unstable, and he stumbled back, realizing instantly that he had encountered a master of Heart Energy.
Just as the thought came to his mind, he saw a gunshot coming from the side. It was just a simple stab, but the speed was fast and the angle was tricky, enough to make a hole in his chest and ribs before the stick could move back to block it.
At this dangerous moment, another gun stretched out from the side and stabbed the gun blade with incredible accuracy. However, at this point, the gun did not deviate at all. Instead, Qin Qingque, who stabbed the gun, was knocked back two steps.
However, this also caused the gun to pause slightly, reducing its speed a bit, allowing Yuan Qiyuan to pull back his stick in time to block. However, the owner of the gun seemed to know that the stab was futile, so he withdrew directly without waiting for the move to land.
The gun owner had just put away his weapon when he suddenly felt his hair stand on end. He turned around and tried to block it. With a clang, his body was shaken to the side. When he saw that the weapon attacking him was an extremely long soft sword, he knew that he had lost the chance to attack.
He had wanted to take advantage of the chaos to kill one person first, but he didn't expect that the two people in the target group cooperated well with each other, which led to his failure. But the most important thing was that a spiritual force reached him first and affected him. If not, if he had followed up and attacked, he would still have had the opportunity to seriously injure one person first.
As his thoughts raced, he saw a long sword in front of him spin, and the spore mist was torn apart by a strong force, expanding to both sides, and a middle-aged man in uniform appeared behind him.
He silently muttered in his heart: "Xu Chan..."
He swung the spear in his hand, trying to block the incoming sword, but just as the weapons were about to touch, he suddenly saw a glimmer of light on the tip of the sword. With a snap, the spear that could easily repel Yuan Qiyuan was easily cut off by the sword. The tip of the sword passed over his shoulder, and one of his arms was taken away. However, he did not say a word, but jumped back, ready to hide in the depths of the fog.
However, while his body was still in mid-air and had not yet landed on the ground, the long sword followed him like a shadow, and with a light circle in the air, his head slid down from under his neck.
After his body hit the ground, he stood steadily without falling, showing excellent balance and strong vitality. But after a while, the yellow-green mist invaded the wound, and soon it was covered with yellow-green silk fibers, and then slowly fell down as if melting.
Xu Chan retracted his sword, took a look, and became even more vigilant towards the mist.
At this time, the sound of engines came from behind, and a number of armored vehicles drove up from behind. The flamethrowers on them began to spray fire in all directions. The yellow-green mist quickly dissipated under the flames. Although there was machine gun fire from the opposite side, it had no effect at all when it hit the armored protective plates.
As more and more armored vehicles joined in, the searchlights at the rear were turned on again, and we could finally see the position of the gunners on the opposite side clearly. The long-range gunners on our side began to suppress and fight back.
Director Lei then pulled out a pendant and shook it. The tip of the pendant pointed in a certain direction. He looked in that direction and quickly marked a location on the boundary certificate. He said to Xu Chan, "Director Xu, we need to go there. This is very important."
When Lan Shen Gu saw the pendant, his eyes suddenly became complicated.
Xu Chan said decisively, "Old Zou and Captain Lu, the two of you follow me and charge forward. Officers Yuan and Qin, the two of you will be responsible for protecting Director Lei and Mr. Lan. I will also assign you a six-man team. Report any developments immediately."
"yes!"
After making quick arrangements, the group separated here. Xu Chan went to raid the firepower position in front, while Director Lei and Lan Shen Gu moved in that direction under the protection of Yuan and Qin.
After Director Lei's team overcame several not-so-difficult obstacles, they arrived near an extremely hidden tunnel entrance. It was obvious that this place was covered by human hands, and it was difficult to be discovered from the outside, but with the guidance of the pendant, it was easily found.
After the group entered, they swept the tunnel with flashlights and saw that the walls on all four sides were covered with all kinds of strange patterns that made people feel extremely uncomfortable.
After seeing this, Lan Shen Gu's breathing suddenly became a little rapid, and he whispered, "This is... the Secret Demon Feast."
Director Lei was calmer than him, his expression also unusually serious. He came up to take a look and said, "This pattern... has been prepared for at least two years. It's not right..." He rubbed it with his hand, peeling off a thick layer of paint, and said with certainty, "It must have been there before, and then a new layer was covered."
Lan Shen Gu came up to take a look and, displaying his professionalism, he quickly made a judgment: "The previous level may not have been successful for some reason, but..."
He took a breath, "If the new one succeeds, it will trigger the previous layer of power." He turned his head and said seriously, "Director Lei, this ritual is extremely evil. Now that we have seen it, we must destroy it!"
Director Lei nodded seriously. The purpose of the secret demon feast is to use a large amount of blood, flesh and resentment to feed a certain evil god and use it to achieve a certain vision. In the old days, this secret ritual usually appeared, and it was usually accompanied by the death of entire cities.
He observed it for a moment and said, "Judging from the style of the painting, this was all done by one person. This ritual is complex and varied. He may not have completed it yet. We still have a chance to stop it."
Yuan Qiyuan paused, then said casually, "Gentlemen, let me interrupt. We don't understand this, but if the situation is urgent, I think we need to speed up our actions. With all the commotion outside, they must be aware of what's going on inside, right? Will the person who created this thing make a big one?"
Director Lei said, "That's exactly what I was saying. We need to get down there as quickly as possible, but our legs are very slow. I'd like to ask for your help."
Yuan Qiyuan put the stick on his shoulder and said, "No big deal."
Qin Qingque immediately instructed the team members around him to go back and report the situation here and what they had just said without missing a word.
Then the two men each grabbed one person and quickly rushed deep into the tunnel.
Because the tunnels here are very complicated and have been artificially rebuilt, Yuan and Qin would pause for a while after each section to ask for the direction to go. Fortunately, even so, they moved very fast, and after a few minutes they arrived at a dark place.
When they arrived here, the four of them heard some rustling sounds.
Yuan and Qin immediately pulled out the lighting burning sticks from their waists and threw them forward, which immediately illuminated the environment opposite. Then they were shocked.
They noticed a long-haired man squatting on the ground with his back to them, seemingly carving something. When the light shone on him, he paused, slowly tilted his head, and revealed a pale face. "So many guests? Good for you, good for you..."
As he spoke, he slowly stood up.
