Chapter 245: Beast Shadow (Seeking Monthly Votes)

"Scholars" use knowledge as a weapon!

Only an Extraordinary who purely cultivates the "Tower" aspect can accurately judge the contamination and paranoid tendencies contained within a Secret Transmission or Mysterious artifact, as well as their severity.

Only by understanding these can one perform "symptomatic treatment" for an Extraordinary's symptoms.

However, even so, there is a risk of over-medication.

If Luosi's contamination is very light, but she looks at "The Rotten Fly" for too long, it could lead to her aesthetic sense not just being neutralized, but distorted... and then she would be ruined...

However, after Luosi was forcibly "interfered" with by the Professor, Aaron clearly felt that those twisted contaminated bodies, which looked like they had walked out of a funhouse mirror, had become much weaker.

This is because the obsession with beauty in Luosi's heart has been neutralized and weakened...

The next second, a majestic beast-shape lunged out from the Professor's shadow, claws grasping toward his chest!

Among the many existences at that time, the "Fallen Corona" was undoubtedly the weakest.

A flash of light appeared in Aaron's eyes; he raised his hand to aim the Zoulun at the beast of Darkness in mid-air, which was practically a stationary target, and pulled the trigger fiercely.

A rapier appeared in Lan's hand, stabbing out elegantly and striking the chest of another contaminated body.

"Non-human Grade Magical Item!"

Bang!

A burst of flame erupted from the muzzle, the bullet easily tearing through the body of the beast of Darkness, turning it into a ball of burning fire.

As Aaron walked, he silently pondered: "The true secret of this city should be at the headquarters of the 'Light of Redemption'. It looks like they were destroyed by a 'Darkness' deity? The 【Black Sun】 is dead, so was it the 'Fallen Corona' or some other Hidden Existence of the 'Darkness' path that did it?"

Although the "Witch" Luosi scanned her surroundings vigilantly, her gaze seemed to linger on the chimpanzee Alexander for a bit too long, perhaps unconsciously.

"A Magical Item related to Time Sequence? It must require petitioning the divine power of a deity to forge!"

"Once you encounter danger that cannot be resisted, you may withdraw on your own... however, in this city, we seem unable to leave the Dream at will; we must walk out of Diate," the Professor sighed and said: "Continue forward."

"Beast of Darkness!"

"Could this be the side effect of the 'Tower' treating contamination? Terrifying, truly terrifying..."

"As for the war of the deities, you are overthinking it... in any case, the 'Spirit of Falsehood' would never make a move."

However, the beast of Darkness did not give the five of them much time for surprise, its body lunging forward violently.

At this moment, Aaron glanced at the people around him again and felt something was wrong.

"But it seems that an Extraordinary who walks the 'Tower' path alone should have the ability to manipulate knowledge and actively spread mental contamination..."

This time, without the Professor's instruction, Aaron kept manipulating the radiance, forming a layer of protection around the group.

Pure white radiance and flames erupted, dispelling the darkness.

In an instant, the movements of the beast of Darkness, which had been flying over like lightning, became incomparably slow.

"Perhaps... in the center of the city, there are traces of deities battling. The Occultism connections contained within, even after a thousand years, could still cause terrible harm to us now..." The gorilla seemed to shiver slightly.

Bang!

At the same time, Aaron fired several shots in succession, accurately hitting the head of the last contaminated body.

When the Sun Fall occurred, the deities were severely injured, and after many deities were born, there must have been a chaotic war.

Among them, there was not a single Non-human Existence!

"How is this possible? We haven't even reached the core, yet we can encounter a Non-human Existence?"

"Yes, we have been targeted."

Even the Professor only took a glance before telling everyone to leave as soon as possible, not daring to go deeper.

"Alright, hurry and take it away."

Lan stated his guess.

"I feel like something is wrong."

Aaron suddenly felt a chill strike his heart.

And the contaminated bodies caused by this will also be correspondingly weakened!

"It is a Spirit World Creature equivalent to a Non-human Existence!"

"Corruption is the domain of 'Darkness'; this city must have been soaked by a 'Darkness' of deity level..."

They walked past a dilapidated park, inside which grew strange, twisted Plants that seemed to have grown directly out of the Abyss.

Just then, Aaron gripped his left hand in the air, and a ball of incandescent light appeared in his palm, smashing toward the depths of the darkness.

"The Professor really has a trump card hidden!"

The Professor answered gently, put away the oil painting, looked at the pitch-black buildings around, and remarked with emotion: "As expected of the Duioluo zhi cheng; here, an Extraordinary is very easily corrupted... this is only the outermost sensing and contamination... once we enter the inner circle, it might induce the darkest side of ourselves. If I had not mastered the ability to neutralize contamination, I would never have chosen to explore this place."

The chimpanzee Alexander beat his chest, suddenly grabbed a monster, and with his furry arms, tore it apart with force.

—Flame clone!

This is an Extraordinary Ability that a "Darkness Chaser" possesses, which had once appeared in the battle against Lin!

Aaron's eyes narrowed, and he immediately looked at the shadows at everyone's feet.

The suppression of Spirituality-level status instantly fell upon the other four Extraordinaries.

Although the Professor was somewhat panicked, he was not desperate; he produced that pocket watch and pressed the mechanism.

Compared to the thorough Purification of the "Spirit of Falsehood", this kind of treatment is the true Evil Path!

"The paranoid madness of an Extraordinary may not be of just one kind; if too much contamination is introduced for hedging, and the Balance is not mastered well... the consequences could be completely beyond expectation. No wonder the Professor doesn't dare to treat his own curiosity addiction..."

Alexander, walking at the very front, stopped his steps: "We seem to have been targeted by something."

Hearing this, Luosi subconsciously shifted her gaze, while Lan had an unreadable expression.

The chimpanzee let out a loud cry, his tone filled with despair.

Seeing the contaminated body destroyed, Luosi immediately turned her head away, while staring fiercely at the Professor: "If you dare to make me look at that disgusting thing again, I will kill you, I swear!!!"

That they could survive and still be doing quite well made Aaron slightly surprised.

And in the darkness, a terrifying beast suddenly leaped out!

In the woman's eyes, there was not a trace of intelligence or rationality, leaving only the purest depravity and madness.

"Of course, I just want to treat you."

Roar!

Its entire body burned with pitch-black flames, possessing a body like a Hyena, yet its head was the likeness of a woman.

"Roar, roar!"

Aaron's pupils constricted, and he instantly understood much: 'It seems this place is indeed inseparable from the "Fallen Corona"... After the "Dawn" seized most of the status and power of this remnant of the 【Black Sun】, it actually survived the subsequent chaos? It looks like it's living quite well...'

——Shadow Lurk!

The beast of Darkness easily Rend the professor's defense, thrusting its sharp claws fiercely into the professor's chest!

In front of a Non-human Existence, an ordinary Extraordinary is so weak!
