Chapter 96
Jiang Tang didn't care about anything and charged inside.
The ghost energy around his body was very weak, basically suppressed by the entire Infernal Domain.
He rushed straight toward the interior, and it was very difficult for the teammates behind him to keep up.
The school seemed to have been pulled into another world. Beside it stood a giant black windmill; as it turned gently, a stench of rot and decay permeated the air.
A small stream flowed down from above; the water was pitch black, with dead fish and shrimp floating on the surface.
Taking a step forward, their feet immediately stuck to a layer of dark brown, filthy mud.
Lifting their feet, they were covered in worms and black bloodstains.
"Damn it, that bastard Jiang Tang rushed in. Captain, I'm going in to help him!"
Jiang Tang's partner, Wang Yu, had been his close brother for decades.
The two had been inseparable since they were ordinary people until they became Night Watchers; their bond was very deep.
He understood why Jiang Tang was so agitated—his daughter was still inside. As his brother, he could only follow behind and help.
Zhang Miao frowned and said: "No, look at the sky. The moonlight is turning redder and redder, and the Infernal Domain is closing in. We cannot act rashly. Let's move carefully, saving people while waiting for the teachers to arrive."
What use were D-level Night Watchers like them against this kind of ghost?
It was nothing more than delivering themselves as a snack.
Wang Yu frowned and looked at the disappearing back ahead: "But he..."
"Dong—"
Suddenly.
A bell toll rang out, and the sky suddenly turned black.
Immediately after, the sky appeared like an ink painting, with streaks of red pigment flowing down from above.
The world began to pull apart, and space folded upon itself.
Zhang Miao and the others felt a sharp pain in their eyes. She was startled: "Don't look at the moon in the sky!"
Everyone hurriedly lowered their heads. Only after looking down did the sharp pain in their eyes ease significantly.
"Ah—help me."
Cries for help from students came from inside the school, one after another, sounding very tragic.
Among them were students and teachers.
Zhang Miao clenched her fists, her steps difficult: "Let's go, be careful."
No matter what, she had to try; this was their duty.
In the world shrouded by the Infernal Domain, apart from black and red, it seemed no other colors could be seen.
The walls of the entire school had turned rotten like wet paper, ready to collapse at any moment.
There was a church nearby, and from time to time, the sound of bells rang out from it.
Every time the bell rang, they seemed to hear footsteps in their ears, very crisp.
On the ground.
"Big Sister, look at this." One of the Night Watchers suddenly pointed to the ground.
Many footprints had appeared on the ground.
Barefoot footprints.
Zhang Miao said: "This should be his main body. Before we came, the teacher said this ghost has many ghost slaves. We must avoid them and try to save as many people as possible before the teachers arrive."
Supporting each other, they entered the school.
Zhang Miao felt an itch in her right hand. Walking at the front, she lowered her head and lifted her sleeve to take a look; an eyeball was protruding from her wrist.
It was still blinking.
She pursed her lips, knowing this was the influence of the Infernal Domain, which had caused the energy in her body to deviate; the Wasteland Gaze could no longer be suppressed.
But she still didn't say a word and continued to walk inside.
"There's someone in the restroom." Zhang Miao pointed to the restroom, then took the lead and kicked the door open, seeing a child hiding inside, covered in snot and tears.
His stomach was bulging, and despite the pain, he was still covering his mouth tightly.
Zhang Miao hurriedly rushed over: "Little one, don't be afraid. We are the police, we're here to save you!"
"Police officers, sob, sob, sob, I want to find my mommy!" No matter when or where, these words were always a source of comfort for the people of the Great Xia Nation.
"Don't be afraid, I'll take you to see your mommy right away." Zhang Miao waved her hand, and a Night Watcher immediately walked out and took the little fatty into his arms.
"Be careful on the way back. Also, tell Liu Li to be vigilant and not let the infection spread out."
The Night Watcher nodded: "Understood."
The rescue operation in the Infernal Domain had officially begun.
The priest's Infernal Domain was not as formidable as the Opera Ghost's, which was hard to close once opened.
The strength of this Infernal Domain lay in its ability to suppress ghosts.
After rescuing the child, they continued to move forward, each step extremely difficult.
This was only because they were releasing their ghost energy together to resist the suppression of the Infernal Domain; if they were alone, they might not even be able to suppress the ghosts within their own bodies.
Wang Yu was now very worried about Jiang Tang's situation; he had gone in alone and there was still no trace of him.
Suddenly.
Zhang Miao, who was in front, suddenly crouched down and held up a finger: "Shh—"
Everyone crouched down together and looked ahead.
There was a person there whose body seemed somewhat stiff, and his movements were very slow.
But with every step he took, the ground beneath his feet seemed to change, as terrifying as shrinking the earth into an inch.
He was also holding a spirit scale in his hand.
"Tang Cai!" Zhang Miao frowned.
"Captain, isn't Tang Cai already a ghost slave of the Demon Bear? What is he doing here?" the person beside her asked.
Zhang Miao shook her head: "I'm not sure, and no wonder..."
No wonder the signs of the Wasteland Gaze in my body were becoming more and more severe. Could the Demon Bear be here too? "Someone else is coming!"
The group saw another black shadow appear in front.
The black shadow was a priest, shrouded in a long black robe with a cross hanging from his chest.
The two stood facing each other.
"Get lost, this isn't a place you can come to," the priest cursed loudly.
He had also smelled that scent on Tang Cai.
Although ghosts would not kill each other, they certainly did not welcome others into their own Infernal Domain.
Tang Cai held up the spirit scale and smiled coldly: "God? Demon? Only the Demon Bear is the judge of humanity."
As the words fell.
He pressed his right hand onto the spirit scale, and the next moment, the priest's body was instantly frozen in place.
Then, a burst of energy was injected into it, the spirit scale began to deviate from its trajectory, and at the same time, the priest's entire body floated into the air.
Bang—
An eyeball suddenly exploded from the priest's neck, followed by another.
A series of eyeballs directly blew the priest apart completely.
Until his body became a pool of rotten flesh.
Tang Cai then walked up, crouched down, and pinched the seed in his hand.
With a wicked smile, he placed the seed on the other end of the spirit scale and examined it.
Immediately after, he took out a few eyeballs and placed them on the other side, balancing them against each other.
Only then did he satisfy himself, collect the seed, and twist his body to continue moving forward.
The reason he appeared here was also because of the Demon Bear's order.
There can only be one demon in hell: God, the Demon Bear! The demon's judgment is about to begin.
Tang Cai turned his head slightly and chuckled, as if he were laughing for Zhang Miao and the others to see.
