Suddenly, a low, muffled sound came from the direction of the village. It sounded like rolling thunder and boiling magma was surging up from the depths of the earth. The sound was accompanied by an ominous tremor, and Hathaway's expression changed drastically.
"The seal!" Hathaway ran to the window. "How could this be …"
Hao Ren also ran to the window. Through the narrow vertical window, he found that he could see the whole village from the top of the tower. But there was no village in this parallel space and time. There was only a circle of boulders where the village used to be, and in the center of the boulders, there seemed to be a bottomless pit. Hao Ren could not see what was in the pit from the top of the tower. He could only see a black-red beam of light shooting out of the pit, piercing the sky, and stirring up the thick dark clouds over the pit.
At this moment, Master Mohabben, who had been sitting in the chair like a living dead, suddenly stood up. His joints made a crackling sound as if his old, decaying body was about to disintegrate. The old demon hunter raised his right hand in the direction of the village and said in a hoarse voice, "The border has opened …"
As the voice trailed off, the old demon hunter's body suddenly burst into flames. The silver-white light of the sacred flame was even more powerful than the sacred flame Hao Ren saw on White Flame. The flame formed by the burning of life force quickly rose to the top of the tower and spread along the mageweath metal around the tower. Eventually, the entire tower became a burning torch, and a beam of light burst out from the top of the tower into the sky, competing with the black-red beam of light shooting out from the direction of the village.
"The master is burning the life force left by himself and the other nine demon hunters." Hathaway took out two crossbows and looked at Hao Ren. "Didn't you say you want to solve the problem here? Come on, let's see if you mean it!"
They quickly rushed down the tower and ran in the direction of the village. Before leaving the hill, Hao Ren looked back and saw the tower turning into a translucent crystal in the sacred flame. The torch-like light even lit up the clouds in the sky. In the flame, he seemed to see the old demon hunter's face. The old demon hunter's deep-set eyes looked through the flame, still staring in the direction of the cage.
"Lily!" Hao Ren patted Lily on the shoulder. "Eat spicy sticks!"
A moment later, accompanied by a loud wolf howl, the five-meter-tall giant husky stood proudly on the gravel field. Hathaway looked at the scene in amazement. Then, Hao Ren pulled the dog's head and said, "Don't look, just think of her as a werewolf. Lily, go!"
The giant dog ran wildly, kicking up dust in the wilderness. As the dog's head bounced, Hao Ren turned his head and asked Hathaway, "What's going on? Has the seal loosened? "
As a ghost, Hathaway was not afraid of the strong wind. Her hair was not even blown by it. She lay firmly in the giant husky's fur and said nervously, "I don't know … That thing just broke out. The seal has never loosened. What happened today had no warning at all!"
"Although it's not nice to say it, it seems that something suddenly went wrong after we came here," said Hao Ren, turning his head and glancing at Vivian. "I still think that the divine artifact has something to do with you. Could it be that it came to life because you approached it?"
"It's possible." Vivian's face was gloomy. She was now holding the can of Malevolence in her hand, and the little thing was still jumping wildly in it. "I can feel … a very disgusting aura coming from the front. It's strong, rich, and full of anger."
Lily seemed to have the same thought. She opened her mouth and said, "Ow woof woof … Cough, cough, cough …"
The maiden almost dropped Hao Ren, who was sitting on the bridge of her nose. Hao Ren immediately patted the fur under his body and said, "Focus on the road and don't interrupt. You can't even speak human language when you return to your original form."
It was a long distance, but in fact, Lily was very fast. In just a few words, they had arrived in front of the prison.
In the real world, there was a dense forest and a village in the forest. But in this parallel universe, except for the old house and the terrain, nothing here corresponded to the real world. The location of the village was a huge pit surrounded by a circle of boulders. Bright sparks were jumping between the boulders, and the shape of the pit was like a funnel. Rings of hardened structures extended down the funnel-shaped pit wall, disappearing into the thick darkness at the bottom of the pit.
There was obviously a supernatural force in the pit because Hao Ren's line of sight was swallowed by the darkness less than 100 meters down. This was completely against the common sense of optics. At this moment, a black and red light was spurting out from the darkness, and the base of the light pillar was rippling with transparent traces like water ripples. The surrounding walls were shining with dazzling silver-white runes. Those silver-white runes were extinguishing one by one and being swallowed by the darkness.
These runes obviously represented the power of Master Mohabben and the power of the nine demon hunters who sacrificed their lives.
"I don't want to go down," Hesperides said as she stood at the edge of the pit and looked down. She shook her head and said, "I'm a hundred percent sure that nothing good will happen down there."
Lily also poked her head out to take a look. Immediately, all the fur on her body stood up. She retreated more than 20 meters with her tail between her legs and lay down. She covered her head with her huge claws and stopped moving.
What leaked out from the darkness and the red light was extremely manic and negative. It took a lot of courage just to look at them. Not to mention Lily, even Hao Ren felt weak standing in front of this thing.
But he knew he could not back down. He could clearly see that the red light was hitting the boundary of the alternate dimension. Something evil wanted to come to the real world, and once it entered the real world …
His year-end bonus would be gone!
Hao Ren calmed himself down and began to take out his work supplies from his Dimensional Pocket — there were all kinds of equivalents.
Just as he was getting ready, Vivian suddenly said, "It looks like we don't have to go down there. Something is coming up!"
In the deep, chaotic darkness, a group of shadows suddenly emerged from the dark background. They were like monsters born from the mud, crawling upwards in a disgusting way, struggling to break free, and slowly turning into something that resembled a human!
These dark 'creatures' crawled in the darkness, and a series of beast-like roars came from between them. Wave after wave, layer after layer, countless black figures began to crawl towards the edge of the pit like a tide of mud, and they were most concentrated in the direction where Hao Ren and his team were!
There was no doubt that the dark force had targeted Hao Ren and his team.
"What the hell is this?" Hesperides shouted as a blazing aura suddenly rose from her body. A yellowish burning light was released from her hands, burning a group of black humanoids that were rushing toward her into ashes. However, as soon as one fell, ten more would rise. Countless monsters were rushing toward her. "Is this the incarnation of the evil power?!"
"… No, this is just a scout." Hathaway raised her crossbow and blasted two black humanoids in the air with a sacred silver arrow. Although she had become an undead, it seemed that she still had the combat power she had when she was alive, and it was incredible that she could still control the holy power with her undead body. "These are the creatures that crawled out from the other side of the border. They are formless and intangible, but after coming into contact with our real world, these things began to imitate and evolve, and now they have a human-like form! Don't be merciful when you kill them, or they will come out endlessly! "
Vivian summoned a swarm of bats to attack the "humanoids" and said loudly, "I thought these were the humans who had been devoured in the small forest village in the past two centuries."
"Do you think this number looks like it?" Hao Ren looked at the surging darkness. "It looks like a prefecture-level city is about to emerge!"
"It's not that big," the MDT said. "I counted, it's just a town …"
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
A series of explosions broke out in the dark tide. Hao Ren took out a sack of plasma bombs and threw them at the enemies while shouting, "No matter how many there are, Xi Ling style of humanistic care, specialized in all kinds of disobedience!"
Hathaway was dumbfounded as she watched Hao Ren throw out all kinds of explosives like a bomb maniac. The intensity of the attack shocked her deeply. "… What has the outside world become?!"
"Don't take him as a benchmark," Vivian said loudly. "His kind is rare in the universe. Doggie, when are you going to stop shaking? Come and fight the little monsters! "
A chaotic battle unfolded in the wilderness.
