Chapter 696 Modern Ghost World 30
In addition to those they found, there must be many missing persons who were also killed.
Gu Changfeng and Li Xinglan felt increasingly depressed, until they heard that it was Chu Hongyou who had rescued these talented people from the brink of death, then a look of relief appeared on their faces.
Fortunately, things have not reached the worst point yet. Although there is no way to rescue those who have been completely persecuted by ghosts, as long as these fighting forces are still there, there is still a way to rescue the souls that have not been completely devoured. At least there is still a chance of recovery.
Gu Changfeng and Li Xinglan also completely adjusted their mindsets and made further deployments of human forces to deal with this severe crisis.
The monsters from the demon clan who advocated practicing hard to improve their cultivation also asked someone to communicate with them.
Regarding the current situation, we are all in the same boat. More strength will allow us to better cope with the situation ahead.
With the permission of Gu Changfeng and Li Xinglan, Chu Hongyou set up a Seven-Star Tiangang Formation at the headquarters.
First, the ghost in Minister Yu's body was cleared out and sealed in the wick.
Afterwards, the two responsible persons ordered to recall the teams that had not been inspected yet and inspect them at the headquarters.
At this point, the two leaders stopped trying to hide the truth. With so many people gathered at headquarters and Xie Tianlin fleeing in such a hurry, the situation was as obvious as lice on a bald head—there was no point in covering it up.
On Xie Tianlin's side, the activities of ghosts and monsters became more and more rampant, and many of the previously sealed acupoints were ready to move and were at risk of being broken at any time.
This means that many talented people are always on standby, and once they receive an order, they will immediately rush to various acupoints to suppress it.
Time flies and a month passes in a flash.
On this day, all ordinary people were gathered into the defensive formations set up by talented people in every city.
Each city is assigned an elite team and two night ranger teams.
Gu Changfeng and Li Xinglan brought Chu Hongyue and others to the conference room of the Yuling Division headquarters to hold a video conference with the elite teams stationed in various cities.
After listening to everyone's reports, Gu Changfeng said with a firm gaze and a loud voice: "Comrades, we have completed the preliminary preparations to the utmost. Now it depends on how Xie Tianlin and those ghosts will act.
This battle concerns the life and death of mankind, and is a decisive battle that determines fate!
Everyone must be extremely alert and not slack off in the slightest, even if it means making a little more preparation.
If the ghosts want darkness, we will burn until dawn.
If they want silence, we will let the whole world hear the human heartbeat!
Today, we bet our lives on the poker table.
What we are betting on is not 'maybe', but 'must'!
Even if there is only one talisman left, it must be pasted on the Ghost King's forehead.
Even if I only have one breath left, I must leave the light to my children!
If we win, we go home and drink; if we lose, we'll be on the road to the underworld and form another Night Wanderer group!"
Li Xinglan also stood up and added excitedly, "Everyone, use the equipment when it's needed, don't be reluctant to give it up!
If necessary, we will even detonate all the equipment!
Those equipment can be rebuilt if they are lost, but if all of us humans are gone, it will be too late.
In this battle, we can only win, not lose!
Success or failure depends on this. Everyone, please show your courage and strength to protect our homes and our loved ones!
Today, it’s not the Yulingsi who are guarding the city, but humanity who is fighting for survival!
Everyone, sharpen your knives, crush your talismans, and risk your lives!
After the war, we can either stand on the ruins and raise our glasses, or we can transform into the King of Hell and fight ghosts to the death.
Now..." He raised his hand and slammed it on the table, "Get ready, fight!"
On the screen, hundreds of elites roared in unison:
“Let’s start the war—!”
After the meeting, all the talented people and ordinary people did not dare to relax at all. They all worked in three shifts every day and were on high alert.
But the ghosts that were originally moving frequently suddenly became quiet.
One day, two days, three days, everything was so calm as if it had returned to the time before the spiritual energy flowed back.
But everyone knows that this is just the calm before the storm. The calmer it is, the more violent the storm will be.
Everyone checked what they could and should do several times to make sure everything was correct.
During rest time, the logistics department also strives to ensure that all combatants receive the best care and are fully energized at all times.
Finally, on the fourth night, a crisp "crack" sound suddenly came from the basement of the abandoned office building in the southwest corner of the Yulingsi headquarters.
It was like someone was gently knocking on the door of the world.
Although it was far away from the office building, it was still captured by surveillance personnel and equipment.
Everyone knows that a thrilling war is about to begin.
Hearing the sudden noise, Chu Hongyu and other frontline fighters quickly gathered here.
At this time, a black crack appeared in the copper wall of the spare spirit well. The crack seemed to have life, opening and closing with every breath.
Chu Hongyou and others did not act rashly.
If you get close at this time, you will most likely be sucked directly into the crack.
Everyone gripped their weapons tightly, ready for battle, their eyes fixed on the crack.
Taoist priests such as Chu Hongyou took action. They skillfully carved attack formations, defense formations, etc., one after another.
Each formation is just missing the final touch, and it can be activated at the critical moment, which can save a lot of effort in battle.
At this moment, there was a loud "bang" and the dark tide gushed out from the crack, instantly engulfing all the equipment.
The yin energy in front of me was as thick as rolling black fog.
Several Taoists reacted quickly, immediately making hand gestures and stepping into the magic circle.
In an instant, all the negative energy that was rushing towards the crowd was pushed back.
As aggressive as it was when it came out, it will be as clean and neat when it goes back.
In the blink of an eye, all the black fog disappeared, as if it had never appeared.
Just after the black fog disappeared, everyone saw a figure slowly walking out.
The person who came was Xie Tianlin.
He stood proudly at the edge of the crack, with a cloak made of black mist behind him, dancing in the wind, making him look particularly eerie.
Chu Hongyou's pupils suddenly contracted.
It was simply because there was no flesh left on Xie Tianlin's chest.
Where the heart is, there is only half a human heart, and the other half is half a black crystal.
The crystal and the heart were obviously completely connected together, becoming a brand new heart.
Embedded between Xie Tianlin's sternum, dark veins crawled all over his skin.
Apart from the cloak made of black mist, he had no other covering on his upper body.
This is what Chu Hongyu and others saw clearly.
"The Ghost King's Core..." Someone gasped.
