"Oh no! It's summoning a more powerful force!" Chen Yao cried, a sense of foreboding welling up in her heart. She knew that if the Flesh Lotus succeeded in summoning this power, all of them would be doomed.
Lin Yu gritted his teeth and said, "We can't let it succeed! Ouyang, let's attack together and destroy it completely before it can fully summon that power!"
Ouyang Zhenghao nodded, and the two of them rushed towards the "Meat Lotus" again without hesitation. Their attacks fell on the "Meat Lotus" like a torrential rain, and each attack was carried out with the determination to die.
Chen Yao continued chanting the spell, trying to use her own power to disrupt the summoning ceremony of the "Meat Lotus." Her voice became hoarse from exhaustion, but she still recited every syllable with determination.
Under the all-out attack of the three, the Flesh Lotus's dark summons seemed to be hindered. The power of the black vortex began to weaken, and the roaring sound from it became intermittent.
"Try harder, we're almost there!" Lin Yu shouted. He could feel the power of the "Meat Lotus" gradually dissipating, and the dawn of victory was just around the corner.
Finally, after a violent tremor, the "Meat Lotus" let out a final wail, and then its entire body began to rapidly rot. The lotus petals turned into a pool of black pus and blood, and the human figure at the center of the lotus completely disappeared, and the powerful dark force dissipated into the air.
As the "Meat Lotus" dissipated, the fog that had lingered in the forest began to rapidly recede, and the eerie aroma and stench of flesh gradually faded, as if everything had vanished with the death of the "Meat Lotus." The oppressive, terrifying atmosphere gradually gave way to the tranquility of early morning. Sunlight filtered through the leaves, creating patches of warm light that seemed to dispel the last traces of darkness.
Lin Yu, Ouyang Zhenghao, and Shen Yao stood wearily, watching the forest gradually return to peace before them, their hearts awash with mixed emotions. "It's finally over..." Ouyang Zhenghao breathed a sigh of relief, his tense nerves finally relaxing, his weapon drooping limply. His face was stained with sweat and dirt, but his eyes betrayed the relief of having survived.
Lin Yu wiped the dirt from his face, nodded, and said, "Yes, but the mystery behind this is far from being solved. Why did the 'Meat Lotus' appear here? What do those symbols carved into the tree represent? Everything seems to point to a deeper secret." Lin Yu's heart was still full of doubts. Although the "Meat Lotus" had been eliminated, he knew that this was just the tip of the iceberg. He knew that in the world of supernatural phenomena, behind every mystery often lay more secrets, and their mission was to uncover these secrets and protect the world from the invasion of unknown forces.
Chen Yao pushed her glasses up and said, "Indeed, we must take these clues back and study them carefully. Perhaps we can find more information about the supernatural phenomena from the symbols and the patterns of the 'Meat Lotus'. This will be of great help in handling similar incidents in the future." Chen Yao's eyes gleamed with excitement and anticipation. As an expert in the occult, she was always passionate about exploring the unknown. Despite having just experienced a life-or-death battle, she couldn't wait to solve these mysteries and delve deeper into the secrets of the supernatural world.
The three men packed up their equipment and returned to the village, carrying the recorded symbols and relevant clues. Seeing their safe return and the strange phenomena in the forest seemingly disappearing, the villagers gathered around them, their eyes filled with gratitude and curiosity.
The village chief excitedly shook Lin Yu's hand, tears streaming down his face, and said, "Thank you so much! You saved our village. Ever since the 'Meat Lotus' appeared, we've lived in fear every day. Now, we can finally live a peaceful life."
Lin Yu smiled and said, "Village Chief, this is what we should do. However, we still need to investigate further regarding the 'Meat Lotus' matter. If anything strange happens again, please inform us in time."
After returning to Bureau 749, the three immediately plunged into researching the clues. After several days of hard work, they consulted numerous ancient texts and analyzed them using the bureau's advanced equipment, finally making some significant discoveries...
They discovered that the symbols carved into the tree originated from an ancient, mysterious language once spoken by a lost civilization. Further research and interpretation revealed that the symbols seemed to mark a seal, but somehow the seal was broken, leading to the appearance of the "Meat Lotus." However, this was only the first step in solving the mystery, and more questions followed. Why did this lost civilization seal the "Meat Lotus"? Are there other similar dangers? These questions, like a thick fog, await the Lin Yu trio's continued exploration and unraveling...
