Gu Jun had no idea who the decapitated young man was.
But from the looks of it, he reminded Gu Jun of the genius' Zheng Jialiang 'from the Spell Department that Wu Shiyu mentioned earlier.
When he saw the yellow-robed figures in the audience, Gu Jun understood what they meant by 'Phantom Appear, Madness Appear'. Wasn't this the Phantom? However, some of the members who were supposed to be dead did not die. They were still there, some kneeling and others standing.
Many of them were familiar faces. Even though they were far away, Gu Jun could see them clearly. His heart warmed, they were no different from his memory.
It was these faces that supported him through the difficult days when he was under the Zoogs and the black merchants.
Now that he was back, he did not want to see any of them die or go mad. Monitor was not a traitor, they probably were not traitors, even Zheng Jialiang might not have been a traitor in the beginning, but they were all corrupted. That was why 'Phecda is in chaos, disaster is born' was placed at the back.
There was still time to change certain things.
"Retreat, retreat!"
At that moment, the wind howled. Gu Jun drew another Ancient Seal and walked towards the screaming Wang Ruoxiang.
This was one of the Ancient Seal techniques recorded in the Pnakotic Manuscripts. It was not a spell, so it would not cause mental corruption.
However, it would exhaust a large amount of mental power. This was because drawing an Ancient Seal like this required a high degree of coordination of the brain's neural network. It was a force produced by the collision of the body and consciousness with time and space. This kind of technology had already surpassed the scope of human knowledge. Even having enough intelligence to understand it was a problem.
Gu Jun could not understand it, neither could Peacock and the rest.
He followed the method described in the Pnakotic Manuscripts. He chanted something that sounded like a spell but was not a spell. It had no meaning, it was just a string of syllables. Therefore, the active nerve signals drove the body and mind, like clockwork.
Under this state, when he drew the Ancient Seal again, he would be able to draw out the same rhythm and power through mental power.
"Ahhh …" Wang Ruoxiang's screams were ear-piercing, and there was a faint yellow light dispersing from her body.
It was the same for the group of traitors behind her. In their eyes, more and more struggles and sobriety were returning …
"Back off!!" Gu Jun roared. He combined his mental power with Peacock and the rest to form another blinding Ancient Seal.
Seeing the class leader like this, he was very distressed. She was the kind of person who strived to be the best in everything. She should not have to suffer like this.
"How dare you! How dare you …" Wang Ruoxiang was still mad. Her crown was slightly askew, but the power of darkness still had the upper hand. Her hand holding the sword was shaking, and her voice was hoarse. "I am Cassilda's descendant. My voice is heard above Lake Hali …"
"Your name is Wang Ruoxiang." Gu Jun said, "I only know your name."
"Really? Really?" Not far away, Mr. Wang Erde was still mumbling like he was listening to a different voice. "Is that so, is that so …"
The short and strange figure suddenly rushed forward, as if it wanted to grab the masked man and bite him. One of its dark red artificial ears fell off, and the veins on its hideous old face bulged. "Is that so?!"
The members of the suicide squad who were watching from the side saw the masked man raise his leg and land a kick on Mr. Wang Erde's body.
There was a heavy thud, like the sound of ribs breaking.
Mr. Wang Erde was sent flying. He landed heavily on the ground next to Zheng Jialiang's headless body. The blood on the ground dyed the tattered yellow cape red. Mr. Wang Erde coughed violently and painfully. He mumbled, "Is that so, is that so …"
But as he fell, the rest of the yellow people were heavily injured by the Ancient Seal. This abomination caused them so much pain!
Wang Ruoxiang bit her lips until they bled. Her mouth filled with blood. The power of the Ancient Seal combined with her internal struggle caused her to kneel to the ground …
The normal citizens gasped in shock. Some of the younger ones screamed in excitement. The situation was changing!
However, the strange thing was that the hundreds of thousands of yellow-clothed spectators in the spectator stands continued to remain silent. Did these figures really exist?
"Ah." Cai Zixuan felt his body relax. The feeling of being strangled had mostly disappeared.
He could breathe and speak again. Cai Zixuan hurriedly called out, "Monitor, hang in there, don't lose!"
Lou Xiaoning, Xue Ba, and the others also relaxed. They even felt a sense of freedom that they had not felt since they started practicing the Seven Cryptic Hsan Scripture for a long time. It was as if they were breathing in fresh air, and their strength was recovering.
Their eyes that looked at the 6 mysterious people, other than shock, there was also respect and caution.
These people were definitely not normal people!
Especially the one wearing the white mask, his gaze sent chills down their spines …
At that moment, the group saw Wu Shiyu, who had recovered and could move, run towards the group of mysterious people. He called out excitedly, "Kangaroo!"
"Hey!" Lou Xiaoning screamed. Why was the normally lazy Shi Yu even more agitated than she was?
They still had no idea who these people were and whether they were friends or foes. Cai Zixuan and the rest panicked. 'Has Shi Yu lost his mind?'
No one knew what Wu Shiyu meant by 'kangaroo', except for one person.
However, to everyone's relief, the masked man did not do anything malicious to Wu Siyu. He just looked at her and then at them. His sharp eyes seemed to have softened, and his voice was a little sad. "Don't be afraid. We are friends."
'Why? Why? Why does it feel so familiar?
This voice, this tone, the height of this figure … '
They saw Wu Shiyu touch the masked man's arm and said, "Hmm, this is the saltiness! It's real! "
"Huh?" A surreal thought crossed Cai Zixuan's mind. His heart almost jumped out of his chest, "Yes, yes, yes …!"
"What?" Lou Xiaoning's left eye widened, "What the f * ck, really?! That can't be! "
"He is?!" Xue Bafang's face twisted in shock. His bushy moustache quivered, "Ah …!!"
Yang Ying, Chen Zhaoliang and the rest of the Phecda members had no idea why they were screaming.
Peacock, Kathlyn and the rest did not understand. 'How come it feels like this nightmare man knows this group of people in blue and white uniforms?'
"Guys, let's save our friend first." The nightmare man looked at the collapsed Wang Ruoxiang, "Dirty-minded Yu, give me your mental power."
"Okay!" Wu Shiyu raised his hand, "But I've studied the tome so I might be different."
"That's fine, mine is different as well." The nightmare man said, "You'll get used to it."
Wu Shiyu placed her hand on the man's shoulder. It had been a long time since they last did this. She resisted the pain and released her mental power. 'Go.'
The nightmare man moved forward again. His hand drew out an Ancient Seal in the air. The 5 Phecda members followed beside him to assist him with their mental power.
This time they could feel the difference. With the addition of a new mental power, it had a great reaction to the nightmare man's mental power, a good reaction.
"Retreat!" The nightmare man waved his right hand and the new Ancient Seal glowed brilliantly. It flew out at extreme speed and landed on Wang Ruoxiang's body.
"Ah!!!" Wang Ruoxiang screamed louder than she had ever screamed before. Her pretty face was twisted into a grimace. Under the impact of the Ancient Seal, a yellow shadow was knocked out from her body. The shadow quickly disappeared like it was never there in the first place.
The melodious female singing stopped abruptly. For a moment, the sky and the open-air theatre were plunged into complete silence.
Another important part of the ritual had been ruined.
In just a few breaths, the nightmare man walked forward. With one hand he picked up the bloody machete from the ground and with the other, he plucked the jeweled crown off Wang Ruoxiang's head. With a snap, the machete sliced the crown in half. "Trash."
"Is that so, is that so …" Mr. Wang Erde screamed, he was still in that strange state of madness. "I understand now, is that so?"
"Ah …" The twisted expression on Wang Ruoxiang's face slowly settled. Her eyes turned from emptiness and pain to some clarity.
She lifted her head to look at the masked man but it was like she was looking at a different face. She asked, "Gu Jun? It's you …? "
Before this, Cai Zixuan, Xue Ba and Lou Xiaoning did not expect Wang Ruoxiang to ask this question.
Their burning eyes looked at the masked man, they too wanted to hear the answer.
'Gu Jun?' The other Phecda members were stunned. Even Gao Yi and Yu Xiaoyong who had recovered from the shock were startled.
The suicide squad's mission this time was to rescue Gu Jun but wasn't that a fake signal … Didn't Gu Jun already …
"Monitor, it's me." The masked man first addressed Wang Ruoxiang before turning to face the group. He announced loudly, "It's me, Gu Jun. I'm not dead, I'm back."
A surprised smile appeared on Wang Ruoxiang's face but there was a trace of bitterness. "Then I owe you another life …"
"Ah!" Cai Zixuan screamed excitedly. Lou Xiaoning guffawed. Xue Ba could not help but slap his chest. "Ah Jun!"
Wu Shiyu sighed softly. It was hard to tell whether it was due to calmness or laziness. "Finally, I can have a good night's sleep."
While they were celebrating, it was the confusion of the normal citizens. Kathlyn's group translated for them, 'Who is Gu Jun?'
It was Peacock, Malachite, Gold, Ambergris and Aquamarine. The five land's travellers were shocked when they heard this. Their faces flushed red instantly.
Their legs wobbled and they almost collapsed to the ground …
'The nightmare man is Gu Jun?
That Gu Jun?
The Phecda Hero … Gu Jun? '
