The study of the manor was a very cultured place. Many red cedar wood bookshelves were filled with books, like a small hill. Together with the retro chandelier, the surrounding cedar wood furniture, and the oil paintings, it formed a place full of charm.
But now, the books were scattered all over the floor, the chandelier had hit the floor tiles and turned into crystal shards, and the oil paintings and redwood furniture were destroyed beyond recognition.
The study room had suddenly turned into a battlefield.
"What's going on? Does the enemy have a company? "
The leader of the Special Search Department let out a cry of surprise as soon as he arrived.
"What the hell happened? Schmidt? "
He looked at a member beside him who was trembling and had almost fired his gun.
"Mon … Monster, it's in the tunnel!"
The fellow seemed to be scared out of his wits and only knew how to repeat meaningless words.
"Assault team, get ready!"
The leader looked at the bloodstains on the floor, then at the middle of the study's wall, at the dark hole that seemed to devour everything. He suddenly waved his hand.
Crack! Crack!
A few special teams wearing special riot suits with steel shields in one hand and shotguns on the other rushed in.
"I don't care how many people you have. Can you compare to an army?"
The leader smiled disdainfully. "Charge down. Open fire if there's resistance. Who cares what kind of beast it is, smash it to pieces first."
"Charge!"
A team immediately rushed down the secret tunnel.
"Roar roar!"
Bang bang!
In an instant, a series of beast roars and gunshots rang out, mixed with a few human screams. The leader's face darkened as soon as he gave the order.
He looked at the secret tunnel that was slowly calming down. It felt like he was looking at the giant mouth of a monster that devoured life.
"Boss, we've interrogated him!"
The people in the study all had goosebumps. A team member outside rushed in and said loudly, "There's only one exit in this secret tunnel, and Monster Markur is also inside!"
"Roar roar!"
But just as he finished speaking, a gust of wind came from the black hole, accompanied by the roar of a beast. A huge black shadow pounced out at lightning speed!
Bang … bang bang!
Inside the manor, the sound of revolvers rang out continuously, along with the roars of beasts and the screams of humans.
"Tsk tsk …"
Wu Ming slowly retreated out of the manor and disappeared. He clicked his tongue in wonder.
"Who would've thought … there's actually such a mutated monster now. Could it be that Markur …"
Initially, he was prepared to make a move. After all, even though the other party's aura was powerful, it was still within his capabilities. However, he felt a dangerous aura gathering outside the manor. Naturally, he could not stay there any longer.
"Roar!"
The gate of the manor opened wide, and the members of the Special Search Division ran out in a sorry state. Many of them were covered in blood, and their faces were full of fear. "Be careful! There are wild beasts! "
Along with a roar, a huge golden lion leaped out of the manor. Its sharp, snow-white teeth were covered in bone and flesh, making it look extremely terrifying.
"What a big lion!"
When the people outside saw this, there was a commotion. Then, they took out their guns and started shooting.
This strange lion's entire body was golden, and its two eyes were blood-red. There was a red line in the middle of its forehead, and its fur was like steel needles, swaying under the light.
Many bullets hit its body, but were blocked by its fur. The few that pierced through its skin were immediately squeezed out by its muscles.
"Quick! Retreat! Retreat! Call for reinforcements from the Sharp Arrows! "
The leader was missing a right hand, and half of his arm was dripping with blood, but he still persisted in giving orders.
The next moment, the aura that made Wu Ming nervous appeared again.
He suddenly turned his head and stared at a high point around him. His eyes shone brightly.
His spiritual power probed, and he knew that there was a sniper hiding there. He was holding a strangely shaped giant sniper rifle in both hands. Many of the metal parts shone brightly, and the hand that held the rifle was extremely stable. There was not the slightest tremble.
"Bang!"
After a loud bang, the golden lion cried out in pain. A huge bloody hole appeared on its neck.
All the members of the Special Search Division immediately cheered.
"Such power. An anti-material gun? Or perhaps a little more advanced? "
Wu Ming's lips curled into a smile. "But this monster won't die so easily …"
Through sensing its aura, he could clearly feel the opponent's life force. Although it was heavily injured, it was still far from death.
"Boss, look, what a big lion. If we put it in the zoo, we'll definitely be rich!"
A member of the Special Search Division laughed and came to the side of the strange lion that was lying in a pool of blood. "Jack! What are you waiting for? Hurry up and take a picture of me! "
"Roar!"
In the next moment, the strange lion's eyes suddenly opened, and it opened its bloody mouth wide, swallowing half of the unlucky fellow in an instant.
Creak! Creak!
The jarring sound of bones cracking could be heard. However, the giant lion chewed and ran quickly, breaking out of the encirclement in an instant.
Bang, bang!
The members of the Special Search Division all pulled out their guns and fired. In the chaos, the hidden Sharp Arrows sniper also fired continuously. They were not even from the same direction, so Wu Ming knew that this place was already a deadly sniper zone.
Even so, the golden lion only paid the price of a wounded thigh and rushed out of the encirclement.
"Chase! Quick! "
The member of the Special Search Division was stunned for a moment before shouting as if he had just woken up from a dream.
"Now, it's time for me to show up!"
Seeing that most of the members of the Special Search Division were chasing the strange lion further and further away, and even the sniper in the distance was moving, Wu Ming's lips curled into a smile.
He wore a golden mask and a black robe as he snuck into the manor again.
The manor was also in a mess at this time. Broken limbs and blood flew everywhere, leaving bright marks on the walls, floor, and corners. Clearly, this was what the monster had done when it had gone crazy.
Taking advantage of this time, Wu Ming went to the study and scanned the tunnel that the monster had come out from with his spiritual force. He then walked down without hesitation.
The entire tunnel was dark and dry, and it was filled with a fishy smell, just like the smell of the strange lion.
At the end of the secret tunnel was a huge basement. It looked like a church, and all the altars and rituals were filled with a formal and meticulous feeling.
"Such a strong and fanatical will …"
Wu Ming came to the center of the altar and looked at the statue that was similar to the one he had seized before, but bigger and older. The joy in his heart was simply indescribable.
"Give it to me!"
He waved his hand, and God's Space roared. It opened a big mouth in the void and swallowed the statue.
[Absorbing spiritual force reserve, total spiritual force inventory increased!]
The prompt of God's Space automatically appeared. Last time, it was only a branch of faith, and it had made God's Space a lot of money. Now, this real statue was even more extraordinary.
"Very good. In this way, the gap in the spiritual force of God's Space has been filled …"
Wu Ming's original intention in establishing a religion was to collect spiritual energy to provide power for God's Space. Then, he would open the illusory fairyland and select Reincarnators to form a network of forces to help him explore the mysteries of the whole world.
Now, the reserves accumulated in God's Space barely met the requirements for the first selection of Reincarnators, which made Wu Ming quite pleased.
"Such an ancient basement and this detailed altar shouldn't have been built in one or two generations, right? Councilor Ba Meng? "
Wu Ming turned around and looked at a corner.
"You're right!"
After a long while, a middle-aged man walked out of there with a bitter smile. He stared at Wu Ming's golden mask, his face full of surprise and doubt, "How did you find me?"
"That's not important …"
Wu Ming said, "I'm very curious about how the Three-eyed Sect roped you in and made you, a councilor with a bright future, into their lackey."
"Roped in?"
Councilor Ba Meng shook his head, "My father and grandfather are all members of the Three-eyed Sect. Even this manor in my ancestral home used to be where the church was. I'm originally a member of the Three-eyed Sect. Why would I need roping in?"
"That lion outside, could it be the Evil God that you worship?"
Wu Ming was a little depressed. Originally, he wanted to invest in a few councilors, but now an evil sect was doing better than him. Not only did they infiltrate, but they even trained their own people to enter politics.
It seemed that if not for the reputation of the Three-eyed Sect being too bad, it would only be a matter of time before they could wash their name clean.
"You mean Makur?"
Ba Meng wore a mysterious smile on his face, "He's an incarnation chosen by our Lord in the mortal world. He's also a failed vessel! The greatness of our Lord is something that you can never understand! "
"Have you forgotten … I've even taken away his statue just now … If your Lord really exists, why didn't he punish me?"
Wu Ming shrugged his shoulders, causing Ba Meng's smile to freeze. Ba Meng's face seemed to have been slashed by a knife.
In fact, if not for the scene just now being too shocking, perhaps he wouldn't have exposed himself so easily.
"Alright, I've asked all that I need to ask. You can go die now!"
Wu Ming took two steps forward and said calmly, as if he was sending Ba Meng home for dinner.
"No! Wait! "
This authoritative figure in Flying Eagle City was terrified. With a pale face, he took a few steps back, "I have a lot of money. I can give it all to you. Also, the members of our church. You'll never know what kind of relationship and power we have! Oh, and power! Do you want to take a look at the Three-eyed Scripture that records the secrets of our church? As long as you spare me, all of these are yours! "
"Too many tricks!"
Wu Ming dodged and pointed his finger between Ba Meng's eyebrows. The latter immediately fell down softly.
"Also … Can't I just get these things myself?"
