206. Chapter 206: Our Goals Are Aligned

As soon as Zhang Yi appeared, he instantly slaughtered all of Dr. Xiao's subordinates.

At this level, B-Rank Ghost Tamers were like ants to him.

He didn't even need to absorb his Fear—Zhang Yi had already reached Level 6 Peak, with only Biological Extraction left to reach 100%.

Once he achieved 100%, he would break through directly to Level 7 Anomaly.

On the other side, Su Jinlong stopped his actions upon seeing Zhang Yi; since the Demon Bear had arrived, he no longer needed to act.

As expected.

Upon seeing the Demon Bear, Chen Tang and Xu Wang were frozen in terror; Chen Tang immediately turned and fled, abandoning Xu Wang, even using his own Ghostly Ability to surround the scene.

He left Xu Wang to hold them off.

Xu Wang was utterly stunned, staring blankly at him, then turning back to look at Su Jinlong and the Demon Bear.

This was the Demon Bear from the Official files—the Level 6 Peak special anomaly? Six meters tall, its body burned with flames, its crimson fur rippling gently, eyes writhing below.

It resembled a demon from myth and legend! Chen Tang fled, but how could the Demon Bear give him such an opportunity to escape?

The Demon Bear waved its massive hand, and a green Hell Gate appeared, then it sprinted into it.

The Hell Gate formed another bridge in midair, teleporting the Demon Bear out directly.

A mere B-Rank Ghost Tamer's Ghost was utterly fragile to the Demon Bear.

It effortlessly tore the White Suit apart.

Chen Tang had no time to turn back—he fled desperately, sweat drenching his entire body.

He never imagined the Demon Bear was still in H City.

According to Dr. Xiao's report, both Su Jinlong and the Demon Bear had been severely wounded and fled H City.

Yet here he was, caught by the Demon Bear—his strength was nowhere near enough to fight it.

Just now, that B-Rank Ghost Tamer was slaughtered instantly; Chen Tang had no doubt his own strength was inferior to that man's.

So the moment the Demon Bear appeared and killed him, Chen Tang turned and ran, abandoning Xu Wang to hold them off.

But unfortunately, the Demon Bear didn't even notice Xu Wang—it came after him directly.

While fleeing, Chen Tang felt the air temperature rising steadily.

He looked down—his shoes on the ground were melting.

At the same time, a green glow flickered in the air.

He snapped his head up and saw a gate opening, then two enormous Ghostly Horns extending from within.

The Demon Bear was chasing him! "Fuck! Has that useless Xu Wang been killed already? He didn't even delay me for a minute!" he cursed, unaware that Xu Wang was still alive.

After cursing, he spread his arms and threw off the White Suit he was wearing.

The suit instantly expanded, like a cloth strip wrapping around the Hell Gate, attempting to seal the Demon inside and prevent its escape.

But his strength was far too weak to resist the Demon Bear's Merciful Wrath.

Boom—

In an instant.

The White Suit burned through with a hole; then the Demon Bear seized it with both hands and ripped it apart, leaping out.

The six-meter-tall Demon Bear, like a small hill, landed directly before Chen Tang.

With each breath, twin streams of scorching nasal fire blasted forth.

Merely standing before it, Chen Tang felt an indescribable pressure of Fear—his body hairs trembled.

His instinct told him he had no chance to fight back—even the act of breathing freely had become a luxury!

"D-Demon Bear!" he stumbled backward, his legs shaking. His eyes were filled with terror.

He had lost all courage a Night Watcher should possess against a Ghost.

He was broken! "I'll join Fear! I'll become your Ghost Slave! Please don't kill me!"

Zhang Yi didn't even speak—and Chen Tang was already on his knees.

He knelt like a pitiful beggar begging for survival, pounding his head against the ground.

Beside him, Su Jinlong and the others approached; he also saw that Xu Wang was still alive.

He sneered: "Hmph, Xu Wang, your so-called Ghostly Faith was just empty words—you surrendered the moment you saw the Demon Bear."

Such contemptuous words, as if he'd forgotten what he himself was begging for.

Xu Wang stared at him and snarled: "Chen Tang, don't assume everyone is as worthless as you. I've never betrayed my Faith. Maybe the Demon Bear finds you repulsive, so it's coming for you first, then me."

Chen Tang ignored him, continuing to kneel and beg the Demon Bear to accept him as a Ghost Slave.

This world was one of survival of the fittest—strength meant everything.

Becoming the Demon Bear's Ghost Slave was a good thing—at least he wouldn't die!

But the Demon Bear ignored him.

Instead, it gripped the Scythe and sneered coldly: "This trash isn't worthy to be my Ghost Slave. I don't need him."

Then it swung the Scythe violently.

Black light surged instantly, engulfing Chen Tang's body.

Chen Tang opened his arms, reveling in it, thinking the Demon Bear was transforming him—but then excruciating pain erupted across his entire body.

The pain felt like it would crush his bones, separating his Ghostly Flesh from his skin!

He finally realized—it wasn't transformation. The Demon Bear was going to kill him!

"No!"

After his scream, the Demon Bear waved its right hand—the Scythe flew back, stripping off Chen Tang's entire skin.

Now he was a bloodied man—still alive, but with not a single scrap of skin left, walking as a raw, bleeding corpse.

Pearls of eyes sprouted from his body.

Zhang Yi did not kill him outright; sending this thing away could still harvest a wave of Fear Value.

Seeing Chen Tang's fate, Su Jinlong felt no pity whatsoever.

This man truly deserved to die; he was unworthy to be a Night Watcher.

The deranged Chen Tang was teleported away by Zhang Yi; as for his outcome, no one cared.

Now, even his blood was saturated with Wasteland Eyes; there was no possibility of salvation.

Plague!

He is a walking Plague!

The Demon Bear turned to look at Su Jinlong and Xu Wang.

Xu Wang took a deep breath, then closed his eyes: "Su Jinlong, act now. I don't want to die as horribly as Chen Tang—give me a quick end."

He felt no regret; it was all his own choice.

Su Jinlong fell silent for a moment, then said: "Xu Wang, everything I said before was true—the mastermind behind all this is Dr. Xiao. My alliance with the Demon Bear exists because, to some extent, our enemies are the same."

"At least until that thing is resolved, the Demon Bear will not attack humans, and we have no reason to attack the Demon Bear." (End of Chapter)
