Chapter 912

"Stop him!"

"No! Kill him!!"

In an instant, the Government forces surrounding the Black Moon Organization made their judgment.

As all attacks converged upon him, the Moon Lord's body suddenly swelled into a massive sphere of blood, engulfing everyone who had struck him.

Caught off guard, only a few strong ones retreated in time; the rest were swallowed whole by the crimson giant.

When the crimson sphere contracted, it revealed a humanoid figure of eerie blood.

This aberration's entire body was composed of Dark Red Pill, with only a black moon mark imprinted on its forehead.

That was the transformed leader of the Black Moon Organization—the Moon Lord!

"Li Level… Aberration!"

Those who had retreated wore grim expressions.

Li Level corresponds to Yun Level!

Although five Yun Level experts were present,

human warriors and aberrations were not equally matched in power.

At the same level, aberrations inherently possessed far greater strength than human warriors.

The five experts exchanged glances, their hearts sinking slightly.

Previously, when fighting large numbers of Black Blood Aberrations—Zai Level aberrations—they had easily overwhelmed them through realm suppression, but facing the Li Level Moon Lord, they now hesitated.

It wasn't that they lacked the resolve to die for their country; it was that this was Jingcheng, their own territory.

If they could just hold off this Li Level aberration, reinforcements would arrive.

Five Yun Level warriors might barely manage against a Li Level aberration, but if a few more joined, their chances of victory would rise dramatically.

"Avoid unnecessary casualties."

A shared thought flashed through their minds.

At that moment, the Moon Lord moved.

He extended one finger, pointing directly at 【Lan Shan】, a Yun Level Blue Guard.

That was 【Lan Shan】's Second-Class Blue Guard, Third Team Captain, Wu Lao!

Sensing something, Wu Lao's face changed instantly; he shifted his legs, trying to evade being pointed at by the Moon Lord's finger.

But the moment he moved—

Tsii!!

A jet of blood suddenly burst through his skin, spraying from his shoulder.

"Ahh!!"

Wu Lao screamed, turning to look at the wound—his blood was not the usual red, but… black!

Black blood, like an infection, rapidly contaminated his normal blood within his body.

Only because he was Yun Level could he suppress it to some degree.

Otherwise, for lower-level warriors, this infection would turn all their red blood black in an instant.

Once this black blood filled the entire body, death was inevitable.

Blood flows through vessels, circulating throughout every part of the body.

Once blood is contaminated, the entire body is compromised—anything could happen.

And Wu Lao had already seen it.

At the infected wound on his shoulder, the transformed black fluid was corroding his shoulder bone!

His shoulder bone was dissolving and eroding at a visible rate, becoming part of the black blood.

In an instant, Wu Lao's face turned as white as paper.

This… was a curse! He had been struck!

"Wu Lao, retreat!"

"Protect Wu Lao!"

"Attack the Moon Lord, all of you!"

The Yun Level warriors, who had just been planning to stall, now launched a full-scale assault.

Although many reinforcements had come for the crackdown on the Black Moon Organization,

the true core force was still 【Lan Shan】.

Second Team Captain, Fourth Team Captain, Fifth Team Captain, Sixth Team Captain—plus the already infected Third Team Captain Wu Lao—these were all the high-end combatants present.

Below them were only high-grade Human Level reinforcements or Third-Class Blue Guards of 【Lan Shan】.

They had originally planned to delay, but now that one of the Wu Family had been struck, they could not ignore it.

Like the Qing Si, 【Lan Shan】 was also controlled by one of the Four Great Families.

And the family controlling 【Lan Shan】 was none other than the Wu Family.

With the clan patriarch Wu Lao absent and Jingcheng in chaos, as members of one of the Four Great Families and as 【Lan Shan】 Captains, they had to act.

"Protect Wu Lao! The rest of you, follow me in attack!"

The Second Team Captain of 【Lan Shan】 shouted, hiding himself behind a wall of his own troops.

These soldiers were his Second Team's men—elite troops he had trained, who trusted him absolutely, like private soldiers.

Indeed, even when used as a human shield, the soldiers obeyed without hesitation, charging forward.

Then they saw the Moon Lord, with his outstretched bloodied hand, slash horizontally through the air toward that wall of men.

The next instant—

Tsii-tsi-tsi-tsi-tsi!!

The personnel at the front of the human wall all had black blood spurting from their chests and collapsed to the ground.

The wounds on their chests turned black at a speed visible to the naked eye, like a puddle of stinking rotten flesh, the wounds looking nauseating and revolting.

But they were, after all, the elites handpicked by the Second Captain. Even though their chests had already taken the hit, and they could feel the infection from the wound spreading along the blood toward every part of their bodies, they still forced down the fear in their hearts, hurriedly scrambled up from the ground, and once again threw themselves in front of the Moon Lord to buy time for the Second Captain.

But between people, there is always a gap in strength.

Some members of the human wall could get up quickly, while others, the instant they had just risen, felt a stab of pain in their chests and a buzz in their brains.

Drip.

Drip.

Black blood dripped down from their noses.

Their consciousness went black, and they collapsed once more on the spot. This time, the corpses of those human wall members who failed to endure rotted from the inside out, completely turning into a puddle of stinking rotten-flesh corpses, never to move again.

They were dead.

And all of this was merely a casual strike from the Moon Lord Guai!

Watching those squad members who had sacrificed themselves for him fall forever like this, the Second Captain's eyes went red.

"Wulao!"

At this moment, the other three Cloud-rank companions shouted toward him.

The Second Captain, who had been immersed in the emotion of his subordinates' deaths, immediately snapped back to his senses.

Right in front of him, a blood-red hand was reaching straight for his face!

And the owner of that blood-red hand was none other than the Moon Lord Guai!

The Moon Lord Guai's speed was so fast that the other captains could only call out a warning, rather than block the attack for the Second Captain.

Facing the Moon Lord's blood-red hand, the Second Captain sensed it.

Facing the Moon Lord's attack head-on, he felt the change in his own body and finally understood the principle behind the Moon Lord's attack!
