Chapter 1028: Green Banyan (1800-word supplement)

"The magnetic field here is very chaotic... I can't even connect to the Gaia Network. I was originally planning to take a photo and post it to my social space!"

Behind, Jason let out an exclamation.

Given the all-encompassing nature of the Gaia Network, it was simply unbelievable that there was no network here!

"Is this... really a research institute?"

Chloe looked at the maze-like environment all around and couldn't help but feel some doubt.

Where would a research institute be built to look like this?

The old man, however, remained silent throughout.

The next moment!

A cold, chilling aura surged forth, and the phantom of a man wearing a white lab coat appeared in front.

"Chloe!"

Bang!

At this moment, Jason fired without hesitation.

Cackle!

His head was torn right off.

Chloe screamed, her right hand firing the firearm rapidly.

But other than dismembering Jason, it had no other effect.

"An Evil Spirit cursed object?"

Chloe screamed frantically while looking for cover to dodge.

Aaron placed the Diary on the ground, gripped the dagger with both hands, and stabbed it fiercely into the cover!

"Ah!"

Aaron looked at this Evil Spirit dressed as a researcher, feeling its connection to the Diary in his hand: "Xia Ya's Evil Spirit?"

'So... the curse on Suolun was cast by you?'

"Damn it... this is an Extraordinary Spirit Body monster!" The old man was knowledgeable and immediately discovered something: "Ordinary attacks are ineffective... we need the mechanical police's super-powered weapons!"

At this moment, she finally saw the ferocious, translucent Evil Spirit from before, as if attracted by an invisible force, sink into the Diary in Aaron's hand and become fixed to the ground.

"Old man, how could we possibly have that kind of military-grade equipment?"

The opponent had handsome facial features, a pale, bloodless face, and eyes that were completely Scarlet.

"Damn it, how do we buy time against this kind of ghost?"

"In fact, we don't need to go looking for it specifically." Aaron raised the Diary in his hand: "It is right here... now, you need to buy me some time."

Come to think of it, he looked at the Evil Spirit Xia Ya, his face even showing a hint of nostalgia.

"Ah!!!"

In this hall, the original instruments, glass, and room partitions had all been destroyed, scattered in every corner.

At this moment, the old man suddenly gritted his teeth, took out an antique Zoulun, stuffed six bullets engraved with numerous patterns into the cylinder, and fired fiercely.

After all, he once had a particularly useful tool-man Evil Spirit that had died at his hands who knows how many times...

Her teeth began to chatter; she wanted to speak but found she couldn't at all.

Crack!

Beside her, Jason, who was cursing while fruitlessly changing weapons, suddenly felt a chill strike him.

"Old man, you actually have a family heirloom; your background is truly suspicious!"

Aaron said quickly: "The generation of an Evil Spirit requires a cursed object! Find his cursed object, and I can use a Ritual to seal or perform a Purification on him!"

Its massive canopy had become the dome of the hall, with aerial roots hanging down one by one.

"Mm, let's do it as fast as possible!"

Cackle!

The old man exclaimed, seeing the Evil Spirit Xia Ya dive into the metal wall and disappear in an instant.

"Damn it!"

The old man's voice trembled slightly, but the Zoulun in his hand was still aimed at Chloe, his eyes filled with a trace of pain.

The old man emptied the cylinder in one go with a pained heart, and while quickly reloading, he screamed: "This mission is a total loss..."

Clearly, the researcher Xia Ya had long since died, but he had been subjected to terrifying influences before his death and may have even gained the characteristic of splitting, turning into an Evil Spirit!

"Old man, don't move, I've already succeeded!"

The Evil Spirit Xia Ya had already possessed her!

Occupying the center of the hall was a Green Banyan Tree, lush with foliage, roots spreading, incomparably thick and incomparably huge!

The old man lowered the Zoulun with a sense of relief, looking at the eerie dark red blood flowing from the gap in the Diary, unable to hide the trepidation in his heart.

Chloe screamed.

The Evil Spirit Xia Ya appeared once more; it seemed that the slaughter had caused his white lab coat to be stained with illusory blood, his aura becoming even more insane and terrifying, with faint Spirit World Language sounding out: "Decree..."

The terrifying power of the curse hadn't even had time to touch the group before it was burned away by the Furnace Fire!

That was—to prevent anyone from entering the research institute!

On the other side, Aaron had finally completed the Ritual; there were three Candles around his body forming a triangle, one hand holding the Diary, the other holding a silver dagger.

Aaron faintly seemed to have become the leader of the group, and Chloe and the old man had no objections at all, following him into a metal corridor and moving forward continuously through the maze.

'Interesting! Ordinary people couldn't turn into vengeful spirits even if a thousand or ten thousand of them died, let alone an Evil Spirit... Unless, at the moment of death, they were influenced by Spirituality. The spiritual environment here is sufficient, but it still lacks the influence of a high-level existence! An artificial god?'

"I can deal with him, but I need time!"

Patter!

'An Evil Spirit?!'

"A family heirloom antique pistol... plus extraordinary bullets purchased from the black market that leaked out from a Mysterious sect!"

Aaron gripped a doorknob and opened the door.

Aaron looked at the Evil Spirit Xia Ya, feeling a little sentimental.

"Then we need to as soon as possible..."

In the end, he granted the other party eternal release.

Commandment—Death!

A terrifying ripple spread to the side of the four people, then dissipated without a trace.

A translucent palm suddenly reached out from the floor and grabbed his ankle!

Then, it burrowed into his flesh!

—Evil Spirit Possession!

Jason quickly became expressionless, grabbed his own head with both hands, and the mechanical arm exerted force violently.

"Dust to dust, earth to earth... in the name of the great Spirit World, I command you, return to whence you came!"

Relying on this area that had become semi-Spirit World, it had been executing its obsession all along.

The laser passed through Xia Ya's body in vain, landing on the metal wall behind and melting a large area of alloy.

Chloe suddenly heard a scream full of resentment and pain in her ears, and she instantly regained control of her body.

He saw Aaron and the other three, immediately opened his mouth, and let out an invisible roar!

At this moment, she suddenly felt her body turn cold.

Behind what looked like an ordinary room was, surprisingly, the center of the entire research institute—a huge space!

Chloe was stunned, then immediately asked: "What does it look like?"

Aaron wiped the sweat from his forehead: "The temporary sealing was successful; it should be able to successfully seal it for a few hours..."

"Alright!"

Bang!

This time, the translucent bullet opened a large hole in the Evil Spirit Xia Ya's body, incidentally interrupting the other party's spellcasting.

At the end of every aerial root hung a shriveled, decaying corpse.

Some of them were wearing white coats, others were wearing security uniforms; all had lost their lives and turned into dried corpses.

At this moment, there was clearly no wind, but the aerial roots still rotated slightly, causing the faces of the dried corpses to face the intruders!
