......
Moments later, the smoke and dust from the explosion gradually dissipated.
Night's exquisite figure was completely enveloped in demonic flames, and the surrounding dark red flames condensed into dark flame thorns, which wrapped up six or seven underground townspeople and entangled them in the air.
The townspeople she had swept up screamed in terror, but were quickly melted into ashes by the dark flames...
"Demon offspring?!"
The young scavenger stammered, "You... why are you a demon descendant??"
and.....
It's actually at the Myriad Manifestations level?!
Nightfall said coldly, "I am a demon descendant. Is that surprising?"
Lin Nai slowly rolled off the bed, buttoned up his clothes, and said leisurely, "I knew it. In this kind of apocalypse, ordinary people face despair every day. They are too busy thinking about how to survive tomorrow. How could they care about the future of reviving humanity?"
If it were just the young scavenger who had this attitude, Lin Nai might have simply thought of him as a passionate, immature, and ambitious young man.
But it's absolutely impossible that everyone in the underground town thinks that way.
Selfishness and self-interest should be the true nature of most people.
From the moment Linnai first met the young scavenger to entering the underground city, he discovered countless suspicious points.
For example, the monsters roaming the wilderness are more likely to target superhumans, yet this young scavenger was willing to bring Linna and Night to their sanctuary.
For example, when they were outside, Lin Nai clearly saw through the system that the scavenger youth was an ordinary person with a level of less than 0.1, but after returning to the dungeon, he was able to immediately tell that the demons killed by Lin Nai were of the Wraith and Senluo levels.
There are also many, many other messy flaws...
It can only be said that, as ordinary people, their acting skills are indeed rather clumsy.
Lin Nai and Ye Wan'er are both seasoned veterans, so of course they wouldn't be fooled by their clumsy acting.
"?!" The young scavenger stared at Lin Nai in astonishment. "Why is even you..."
"What's wrong with me?" Lin Nai twisted her neck. "I feel very comfortable with the smell of this demonic energy in the air."
"This is impossible..." the scavenger youth said, trembling. "In such a closed environment as the dungeon, no human should be able to withstand the demonic energy when the purple fungus blooms. You are an apostle; you should be even more sensitive to this kind of dark toxin..."
"Oh, this is the demonic energy you're talking about?" Lin Nai said leisurely, raising one hand, and a ball of purple demonic energy condensed in his palm.
The young scavenger was dumbfounded: "You...you're not an apostle? How can you control demonic energy?!"
"Not only can I control demonic energy, I can also summon demonic creatures." Lin Nai put away the demonic energy. "Alright, considering you are all pitiful people, I don't want to make things difficult for you. Tell me honestly, what exactly is this evil god you're talking about?"
"...You bastard! How dare you insult the Evil God!"
The curse mark on the scavenger youth's neck flashed faster and faster, and his pupils gradually turned into an eerie purple. A void of purple mist emanated from his body, completely enveloping him!
Lin Nai narrowed her eyes.
He had thought that once the curse mark on the young scavenger's neck took effect, he would turn into a terrifying purple monster like Lieutenant Li.
But it didn't happen.
The young scavenger retained his human form.
Furthermore, his magic power level only climbed all the way to the Wraith level before stopping.
In an instant, all the townspeople were enveloped in purple mist, their eyes turned purple, and they transformed into demons with the power of a demon!
Linnae activated the Gray Eyes.
He saw that the souls of these townspeople were severely corrupted by the demonic energy of the cursed seal.
It's beyond saving...
Night glanced at Lin Nai and asked, "Should we spare their lives?"
Lin Nai sighed softly, "No need, they're beyond saving. Let's help them find peace."
The demonic curse has amplified the hatred in their hearts to the extreme.
It completely corrupted their souls.
Three years have passed; it's impossible to go back to the way things were.
"Alright." Upon hearing this, Ye Wan'er no longer hesitated and immediately began her killing spree.
Spiked, dark flame thorns shot out like skewers of candied hawthorns, stringing together all the demonized townspeople before melting them into ashes with the dark flames. Their agonizing screams quickly echoed throughout the entire dungeon...
These demonized townspeople, though each only possessed the strength of a demon-like being, clearly lacked the "fear" of ordinary creatures. Upon seeing the Myriad Manifestations level strength displayed by Ye Wan'er, they were not afraid at all. Holding pickaxe handles and other weapons, they roared, "For the Evil God!" and then charged forward.
However, none of the hundreds of demonized townspeople were able to reach Ye Wan'er and Lin Nai before being devoured and melted by the dark flames swirling around Ye Wan'er...
Linnaeus said, "Leave one person behind."
Although these people's souls have been completely corrupted and demonized, it is possible to obtain some useful information from their minds through memory reading techniques.
At the very least, we need to find out exactly what has happened in the past three years.
Night said, "Okay."
At that moment, Linna suddenly looked up and was drawn to a bunch of suspicious purple plants on the top of the dungeon.
The purple plants, like stalactites, covered the ceiling of the dungeon, densely packed together. They looked somewhat like hydrangea mushrooms, but were purple and very vibrant and beautiful.
Even the walls where no mushrooms were growing were covered with purple mycelium, somewhat like the viruses in the Resident Evil game. They were sticky, dense, and even slightly wriggling, which looked disgusting!
The eerie, demonic aura in the air seemed to emanate from these mushrooms.
Lin Nai thought to himself, "This must be the purple fungus that the townspeople are talking about."
"ah......!!!"
"......"
In the ensuing night, a massacre ensued.
The entire dungeon was quickly cleared away, and the demonized townspeople, amidst their wails, were all melted to ashes by her dark flames...
Only the young scavenger remained, still holding a long crowbar, his purple eyes gleaming with madness, as he continued to charge towards Linnai and Yewan'er.
Nightfall remained motionless, coldly crossing her arms. With a flash of her scarlet eyes, the young scavenger fell to the ground and could not get up no matter how hard he struggled.
