Hearing these words, He Zhongze felt a sense of foreboding.
We already know pretty much what kind of beings demons are. From the history of conflict with them throughout the ages and the resentment of the angels, we know that these guys are sometimes just crazy.
If you let powerful madmen take to the streets, especially a whole group of them, wouldn't that cause a huge disaster?
"Well, you don't need to be too anxious. I roughly understand what you're thinking. But don't worry, even if a demon king is successfully summoned, they won't dare to massacre humans here."
"What's the meaning?"
"Because this place is too close to the Qiantang River, and even humans without spiritual abilities are still humans. If the demons still want to return to Earth, they won't be killing humans at this time."
These words still put immense pressure on He Zhongze. Not indiscriminate killing did not mean no killing at all, and could even cause social chaos. Although the phrase "Qiantang is too close" reminded He Zhongze of Qiantang's special status, now was not the time to consider that.
"Report! Captain Sun has sent an urgent distress signal, with coordinates at XXX.XXX."
At this moment, a man in a military uniform without armbands strode in through the door, ignoring the large hole in the floor-to-ceiling window, and reported the information directly to He Zhongze.
Upon hearing the coordinates, one of the long-haired women in the immortal abode immediately calculated them with her fingers and called out.
"There it is!"
"Team Leader He, we'll go first. The Immortal Mansion will send experts over to help as soon as possible. You'd better find a way to evacuate the nearby residents."
...
Sun Cheng and the others are now hiding outside the demolition area, their faces covered in cold sweat as they stare in one direction.
Several hundred meters away, a twisted black "smoke column" connected the sky and the earth.
A rather fierce wind had suddenly risen all around, and torn cardboard boxes and discarded plastic bags from the demolition area were flying around the huge, twisted pillar in the sky.
But Sun Cheng and the others knew that this was definitely not black smoke.
These black substances are completely opaque; they are more like a dark shadow, spreading out in increasingly thicker shapes, but not like smoke being blown away by the wind.
After exhausting all means to find the possible direction of the first target's advance, they hadn't even gotten close to it yet when they suddenly saw this terrifying black pillar shooting into the sky from one of the demolished houses.
And it expanded rapidly within minutes, as if an invisible fire was burning continuously below.
Sun Cheng considered moving closer, but it seemed like there was a real fire burning there, and the closer he got, the more he felt a burning sensation on his body.
Now, they have been "forced" back outside the demolition area.
"Was the distress signal sent back?"
“It has been sent back, at the highest level, but our communication signal was lost after the distress message was sent, so we can’t give them more information.”
After saying that, the team member swallowed.
"Boss, you joined the crew earlier than all of us, what's that all about?"
Sun Cheng cursed inwardly, "How should I know?"
"What? What good can come from being associated with demons? By the way, don't just stand there like an idiot. The reinforcements haven't arrived yet. Tell all the cars that have stopped to move quickly."
...
A driver who was making a phone call with a Bluetooth headset while driving was heading towards the city center, but the call suddenly went dead.
"Hello, hello? Can you hear me?"
"What's going on? The signal is so bad here!"
The passenger in the front seat suddenly pointed at the front and yelled.
"Damn it! Mao, what's going on up ahead?"
The driver took off his Bluetooth headset and looked at the black mass in front of him that stretched from the sky to the ground like a column of smoke.
"Could it be that there's a fire over there?"
"It's on fire, but this thing doesn't look like smoke at all..."
The friend lowered his head and looked up at the top of the black pillar. The pillar now reached the very top of the sky, occasionally twisting, but overall it was perfectly straight.
Mao originally intended to drive straight over, but many cars ahead were stopped to watch the commotion. Although he still left enough distance for other vehicles, his curiosity compelled him to stop his car as well.
However, before they could exchange more than a few words with the other drivers, several serious-looking people ran over from a distance.
"Who gave you permission to stop on the road like that? Hurry up! There's an emergency ahead!"
"Drive away, drive away! We are the police. All drivers, get in your own cars and drive away immediately. It's dangerous here."
"Officer, can you tell us what's ahead?"
"No comment! If you don't move soon, it will be considered obstructing law enforcement, and you'll have your licenses revoked if you park on the highway! You're not allowed to take pictures! Did you hear me? And you too..."
Under the persuasion of Sun Cheng and others, various vehicles slowly left, but this movement caused a brief traffic jam. Other vehicles occasionally passed by, exacerbating the congestion and making it difficult for the cars to leave quickly.
The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the clothes of those still standing outside were being blown around loudly.
Inside the demolished house, Wang Shenyu felt his whole body convulsing with pain, but the mental pain was even more excruciating, like being torn apart.
He could see a lot of blood flowing from the inverted cross in his hand, flying into the air inside the room and forming an inverted cross two meters high. Then, countless black substances overflowed from it, making the entire room lose visibility.
Outside, the huge black mass in the sky had changed. From its low position, it stretched out two huge shadowy tentacles on either side, and they were still extending.
Now, not only the drivers who had stopped saw it, but even residents who were not too far away could clearly see the strange blackness that appeared in the sky.
"Hey, is this thing transforming? Is it some kind of monster?"
Sun Cheng looked at the black substance gradually evolving in the sky, thought of some of the demon's marks, and took a deep breath.
"That's an inverted cross!"
"Bang~ Bang~ Bang~"
Sun Cheng took out his powerful sidearm and fired three shots into the sky, drawing everyone's attention.
"Hurry up! Everyone get in the car. Don't worry about scratches or anything. If you don't want to die, get out of here right now!"
Upon hearing that a life was in danger, the slow-moving vehicles suddenly sped up, with the outermost car almost flooring the accelerator to leave.
There should be limits to watching the excitement; after all, only a minority of people in movies are still there watching until they die.
However, this scene was recorded by dashcams in many vehicles and videos on the phones of some car owners, so Sun Cheng and his group alone could not stop it.
Just as Sun Cheng and the others were at a loss, several beams of light shone from the distant sky, shooting straight toward the inverted cross in the sky.
"Judgment Word: Chains!"
Six angels, their phantoms dozens of times larger than their real bodies, unfurled in the air. A chain formed from milky-white light emerged from the six points of support and wrapped around the inverted cross in the sky within seconds.
"Bang!"
Like the resounding bell of a temple, it transcends spatial distance and resonates on the spiritual level of living beings within a radius of tens of kilometers.
Then came the creaking sound of chains buckling under the strain.
