At this moment, as the dark red blood in the water tank continued to rise and fall, the chunks of flesh and limbs inside swayed and moved as if they were alive, jumping, twisting and swaying.
Combined with the dim emergency lights, the scene looked extremely eerie and creepy.
Around the kitchen, there were many cleanly gnawed bones, carelessly scattered around, and there seemed to be quite a lot of them.
The back door to the kitchen was completely blocked off by a large amount of clutter.
The group exchanged glances, each having already made their own plans.
If nothing unexpected happens, the kitchen of this bar should be the sacrificial site that those mutants mentioned.
However, they did not find the idol the mutants had mentioned, nor did they know whether the so-called evil ritual had ended or moved to a new location.
After confirming that there were no other living creatures around, Wang Zheng and his two companions did not rush to check the situation and retreated directly.
After all, they were just combatants, not professional researchers. Even Wang Zheng, who was called a researcher, was just a half-baked expert who relied on his Holy Light spell.
As for testing and such, Young Master Wang knew nothing about those things; he couldn't even recognize all the professional instruments in the lab.
Dang Liantao quickly contacted the military region to seal off the area, transport all the discoveries back for testing, and then follow the clues to find the mastermind behind the incident.
Wang Zheng also revealed all the information he knew, including the reasons why he came here last time.
The two men, Dang and Shan, found this fascinating. Shan Changxu even patted Wang Zheng on the shoulder with a smile and said:
"I never thought that losing your bicycle could help us find clues about the Heavenly Demon. I knew you were good. You've done a great job again."
Wang Zheng shook his head. He wished he had discovered the clues sooner, preferably by taking all the beast meat from the place earlier, otherwise they wouldn't be in such a passive position now.
Moreover, glancing at the empty bar, he thought to himself that this matter was far from over.
While waiting for the military region to arrive, Dang Liantao arranged for Wang Zheng and Shan Changxu to guard the back gate, while he himself guarded the front gate to await reinforcements.
Although the area behind it was blocked by debris, it wouldn't be difficult to sneak in. Now that he had finally found a clue, he dared not be careless.
Wang Zheng and his companion naturally had no objections and immediately headed towards the back door of the bar.
When the familiar, dirty alley came into view again, Wang Zheng suddenly sensed a faint wisp of white vapor rising from the deepest end of the alley.
He immediately whispered a few words to Shan Changxu, and then quietly crept over.
Old Dan leaped into the air, transforming into a blue-white humanoid ball of light. He then took the highest position and began to monitor the surroundings.
After finding nothing amiss, it deliberately landed and spread along the surrounding walls.
As the two approached silently, the figure huddled up at the end of the alley began to appear before them.
On this freezing street, a man with a wretched appearance and a thin build was seen crouching in a corner, shivering and covering his head with his hands.
That wisp of white smoke was just the last few breaths of hot air he exhaled from his mouth and nose.
Dan Changxu thought this was another mutant like before, and was about to subdue him after landing, but Wang Zheng grabbed him.
Wang Zheng shook his head as he looked at the man. He had already scanned the man beforehand and found that he was indeed just an ordinary person who had not undergone any mutation.
However, he was in very poor condition at this time, and his stamina was almost depleted. The large amount of blood on his trouser legs and his twisted ankles indicated that both of his feet were probably broken, and that the injuries had been ongoing for quite some time.
Moreover, the thin man's cotton-padded clothes had long been soaked through by the rain and snow. As his body heat was lost, his face turned ashen and his lips turned black. He looked like he was about to die.
If it weren't for the spiritual energy revival passively enhancing his physical abilities, in Wang Zheng's previous life, he would probably have already passed away.
Wang Zheng quickly stepped forward and brushed aside the man's hair, which was frozen into a clump. He realized that he seemed to have seen this face, which was covered in frostbite, somewhere before.
After several holy light spells were cast, the other person's complexion improved significantly, and the frostbite and swelling on their face subsided.
He then began to cough violently.
Once the man caught his breath, he looked up at Wang Zheng's familiar face and exclaimed in surprise.
"You...you...Young Master Wang, what brings you here?"
Upon hearing his voice, Wang Zheng finally remembered this person in his mind.
"If I remember correctly, your nickname is Rat, right? You're Tiger's underling from the bar up ahead. How did you get injured like this? Sleeping on the street all by yourself in the dead of winter?"
Upon hearing Wang Zheng mention Brother Tiger, the rat's previously composed face instantly turned terrified, and he covered his head with his hands and shrank back into the corner.
"I don't want to! I won't eat it! Xiao Liu and Xiao Jiu have gone crazy! Everyone has gone crazy!!!"
