The air hummed at that moment!
The blood-red centipede seemed to be pressed hard against the ground by a large hand, and no matter how it struggled, it was futile.
A burly man in the crowd had a flushed Face, his hands pressed down, and beads of sweat the size of beans covered his forehead.
“Attack!”
He roared, and only then did the people around him react, unleashing various attacks on the centipede as if they were free.
Even though its bones were hard, it couldn't withstand so many people attacking at once, and it was chopped into several pieces in a matter of minutes.
Only then did the burly man dismiss his Divine Appearance, his body swaying slightly as he spoke.
“Everyone, be careful.”
After this incident, everyone's nerves were taut.
Only Dan Liang acted as if nothing had happened, calmly putting his bracelet and glass container into the password box, not even glancing at the centipede from beginning to end.
“Ah, we’ve lost so many people before even reaching the Laboratory area. This fifty million yuan really isn’t easy to earn.”
“Isn’t that exactly the kind of money we’re earning? Why be so sentimental?”
“Exactly. If you just lie in bed, safe, who’s going to give you money?”
“Hey? You two grandsons can’t speak like normal people, can you?”
“Heh heh, old man, you’d best keep an eye on your back when you leave later.”
“I’ll go to your M….”
When people are extremely nervous or scared, their emotions become particularly irritable.
For example, right now, the alliance that had just formed instantly crumbled, and two groups of people started fighting fiercely. Everyone else kept their distance, and no one intended to break up the fight; many just showed expressions of disdain.
There are always some people who can't distinguish between priorities. What's the difference between fighting in a place like this, wasting stamina, and committing suicide?
But if they die, they die. It just means a few fewer competitors.
The crowd bypassed them and continued forward, but Dan Liang, who had turned around, wasn't in a hurry to move. Instead, he watched the 'two groups' fighting with great interest.
They were acting quite convincingly. People who didn't know would really think they were two separate groups, right?
Choosing this timing to act probably had two intentions.
First, by going in a bit later, they could let others scout the way for them, minimizing risk as much as possible.
Second, quite a few people were killed by the centipede just now, so they were likely planning to loot the bodies.
Dan Liang waited until most of the people around him had left before slowly following. As he passed the 'two sides' fighting, he gave them a big smile.
However, they were in the thick of their fight, and no one responded.
Dan Liang sighed helplessly, thinking that these few really weren't giving him Face, not even letting him leave a mark.
But before he could go far, he heard a cry of surprise from ahead.
“Holy crap! What the hell is that?!”
“Ah! Help!”
“Divine Appearance! Tibetan Secret Oil Expulsion!”
Following the latter's angry roar, a burst of fire accompanied by chanting Sanskrit sounds lit up!
The fire flickered, and Dan Liang squinted, seeing that what was burning was none other than the man's hair!
In a breath, the fire quickly spread over his entire body, yet it didn't cause him any harm. Not only that, but it even made his originally corpulent body much more robust.
“Bastard, die for me!”
The man roared, his figure transforming into a streak of fire as he rushed forward.
And as the fire on his body illuminated the surroundings, everyone finally saw that, at some unknown point, they had been surrounded by a dense swarm of evil spirits!
Although most of the evil spirits were relatively low-level, their sheer number was still hair-raising!
“Divine Appearance!”
“Divine Appearance!”
“Divine….”
At this moment, many people directly activated their Divine Appearance. Although this consumed a lot of stamina, it was better than losing their lives, right?
Haven't a few unlucky people already died in this short time?
Dan Liang clenched his fist, and wisps of red mist swirled around his fingers.
The flesh and blood on the ground seemed to be summoned by something, and they began to slowly squirm.
And in this environment, no one would pay attention to a twisted puddle of blood.
Seeing that humans had discovered them, the evil spirits rushed over in a frenzy!
One after another, in an endless stream!
This area instantly became a meat grinder!
Many people were even pulverized into minced meat by the evil spirits before they could even scream!
However, the evil spirits weren't having an easy time either, as people who dared to dance on the tip of a knife usually had some skill.
Under the bombardment of these people's Divine Appearances, the evil spirits also died in droves.
“Push forward!”
“Old Li, clear the way with me!”
“Okay!”
The burly man who had previously called for unity spoke again, and as he spoke, his body swelled!
In an instant, he had expanded to three meters, his head almost touching the ceiling.
And the one called Old Li also let out a loud roar.
“Divine Appearance!”
“Five Directions Revealing Truth!”
With his voice, five shields engraved with different patterns appeared out of thin air, rotating continuously around him.
Whenever an evil spirit approached, the patterns on the shields would emit bursts of light, and the evil spirits caught in the light would scream incessantly.
The two of them, like tanks, charged head-on through the evil spirits!
The people around them followed closely behind the two.
After all, everyone's goal was the same: to bring out the Hungry Ghost Tai Sui from the Laboratory.
Now that someone was willing to clear the way, they naturally didn't mind hitching a ride.
The group quickly fought their way through the Laboratory area and arrived at the warehouse area.
Once they passed through here, it would be the core area of the Laboratory, and the Hungry Ghost Tai Sui was right there!
But as soon as they arrived in the warehouse area, many people's bodies stiffened.
A strange smell lingered in everyone's nostrils, even overpowering the scent of blood!
Almost everyone present had been to the Spirit World, so they were naturally familiar with this smell.
This was the smell of the Spirit World!
Immediately, many people's expressions changed drastically. This place had actually been Spirit World-ized!
This could only prove two situations: first, there was an extremely terrifying evil spirit here!
Second, an evil spirit had been living here for a long time, which meant that the White-Clothed Person's statement about the outbreak time was a complete lie.
Neither situation was favorable for them.
“Damn it, that bastard tricked us!”
“A single Daolao Ghost simply couldn't Spirit World-ize this place in one day!”
“Fighting evil spirits in the Spirit World is completely different from fighting them in reality.”
“What should we do?”
Everyone felt their hearts pounding fiercely, because they were surprised to find that after arriving in this warehouse area, there were no evil spirits in sight!
According to the White-Clothed Person's previous statement, this should have been the place with the most evil spirits, so how could it be so quiet?
Just as everyone was pondering, a faint voice sounded from the crowd.
“When did he say there was only one Daolao Ghost?”
Hearing this, everyone felt their blood run cold.
That’s right, the White-Clothed Person only said the 'ants' were Daolao Ghosts, but he didn’t say how many there were!
And ants always come in swarms.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh~
A wave of 'arrow rain' came from the darkness. The people on the outermost perimeter didn't even have time to react before they were shot into porcupines by the arrow rain, their bodies turning into a puddle of pus and blood in a few seconds, dying a tragic death.
