"Bang!"
The gunshot rang out, and the gray light was already before his eyes.Even if the Seventh Sect Leader's rank was high, caught off guard like this, it would be very difficult to dodge a bullet in such a short time.What's more, it was gray light far faster than a bullet.While the Knowledge Demon System had many abilities, firstly he had no strength left, and secondly his own abilities could not influence power whose essence was "disease." Just as others could only endure when faced with disease erosion, at this moment he could only take it.So, as the gunshot rang out, this Seventh Sect Leader suddenly fell from the high building.Only a freshly drawn secret array remained on the ground.…………"Bang!"Also with the gunshot, the flesh tentacles waving in the air seemed to move much more slowly.Inside the building where the Blood-Flesh Rose bloomed, the consciousness within the flesh was silent for a long time, then suddenly laughed:"Didn't you say before that this was a madman?""Because he's a madman, he destroyed the sacrifice the mentor prepared for me.""Tick" "Tick" "Tick"The dense sound of clock hands turning was endless. Suddenly a consciousness was laughing, "Indeed, no one can place hope on him……"…………"Bang!"Also with this gunshot, Wei Wei's body suddenly lost all its strength.It was as if at this moment, the body's weakness and pain finally had a chance to break out all at once.But his face bore a smile, a truly heartfelt smile, his mouth corners uncontrollably stretching toward both sides.Satisfying…So satisfying…Wei Wei savored the expression on that Seventh Sect Leader's face as he fell from the building, trembling with excitement, feeling everything was worth it.Love it so much.I really, really love seeing the faces of these people when they despair.Perhaps the only fair thing in this world is that demons, when afraid, also show the same desperate expressions as lambs?The fear in his mind wearing the white little dress, and the despair of these people, had always been Wei Wei's greatest motivation to keep living.…………"Is it ending in such a ridiculous way?"The instant he fell from the building, the Seventh Sect Leader's heart surged with intense unwillingness. He felt his body instantly become scorching hot, his strength scraped away layer by layer as if by knives, his firm heart becoming as light as a feather.Pandora's Box was brought by him and opened by him personally.So he was on the protected side. Whether his subordinates, mercenaries, or even those wasteland refugees, as long as they were under his attention, they would not be affected by the plague emanating from Pandora's Box in the short term. But now, these plagues had been absorbed and accumulated by that gun, invisibly changing their nature, treating him the same as everyone else…So, this was the first time he felt the power of high fever.Especially since this was absorbed from countless people in Scrap Iron City, accumulated into a massive power.Having just fought with Ouyang, his weak body had little resistance left.Having planned for so long, having such a firm heart, yet because of someone's inexplicable action, all efforts wasted in an instant?An indescribable unwillingness and anger rose in his heart.The Knowledge Demon System, even while severely injured and falling from a building, could still think of many things.He suddenly raised high the dagger in his hand.That was originally prepared to stab into his own body.Since his plan had failed and he couldn't personally welcome God's Death Knell back to the sect, then he'd create opportunities for others…Thinking this, the pupils beneath his round-framed glasses burst with intense joy.The next moment, he thrust the dagger straight into his own heart.But immediately after, the joy on his face suddenly turned to bewilderment and suspicion.The dagger entered his heart, but he felt no heartbeat, not even pain, as if what he'd stabbed was just a thick wooden board unrelated to himself. This made him suddenly realize something. He violently pulled out the dagger, even deliberately hooking it to pull out his "heart" as well. Then he saw that the heart in his chest was just a rotten fruit."So, I've already been sacrificed?"He tried hard to remember but couldn't recall when the elders had replaced his heart.After all, modifying memory and cognition had always been a specialty of the Knowledge System, and he was very skilled at it himself.But why didn't the elders tell him, instead doing it secretly?The result would be the same. If I failed, I would definitely sacrifice myself, which would prove my loyal faith. But now, I was sacrificed in advance. Though both sides' purposes are completely aligned, Xu Lin's heart still felt somewhat disappointed.Splat!The next moment, he crashed directly to the ground below.The body without a heart was instantly smashed into a shape like a graffiti painting.These scattered and splattered flesh and blood formed the third secret array.The first secret array was carved in the building where the Blood-Flesh Rose bloomed by Seventh Sect Leader Xu Lin's subordinates the moment they broke into the building. It was precisely because of this first secret array's appearance that the Blood-Flesh Rose sensed crisis and chose to bloom at all costs.The second secret array was personally carved by Seventh Sect Leader Xu Lin on the rooftop.The third secret array was carved in advance by the sect's elders in Xu Lin's spiritual world, manifesting through his death.At this moment, the three secret arrays intertwined with each other, forming a huge triangle. Invisible power interwove and connected, creating a triangular distorted space. In this distorted space, layers of space emitted flowing light like water, as if reflecting another world. Through the light, one could vaguely see a huge eye rapidly approaching the water surface from the depths.With a splash, it broke through the water surface, its body continuously growing larger, dragging some residual flesh and blood tissue behind it.Centered on the building where the Blood-Flesh Rose bloomed, invisible mental power instantly spread, shattering all glass within a three-hundred-meter radius. Even the flesh tentacles wrapped around the entire building suddenly contracted as if stimulated.…………"Knowledge System Upper Totem, the Eye of True Knowledge?"In the distance, Captain Ouyang, who was using his own power to forcibly calm all the fleeing people and lead them out of Scrap Iron City, suddenly turned his head.He felt that incredible level of power and nearly went weak in the knees."The sect has really gone mad. To obtain God's Death Knell, they don't hesitate to invoke an Upper Totem's true form to infiltrate the Mental Barrier?""Are they willing to destroy Scrap Iron City and go to war with the Foundation?""……""……""May the God of Death bless us, may the Dark Mandala God bless us, may the Black Goat bless us…"At the same time, many hidden believers who had sensed trouble and were quickly fleeing the city were all complaining bitterly.For example, Yuan Guaizi had been tempted when he saw the Blood-Flesh Rose appear, but because he had two broken legs and couldn't run over, this actually made him suddenly calm down: Something's wrong. So many people rushing toward the Blood-Flesh Rose, it's definitely not normal.It's the strange influence brought by the Blood-Flesh Rose, stirring up these people's ambitions and desires.Having realized this, he turned to run toward the city outskirts again, but also because of his two broken legs he couldn't run fast and could only pray desperately.Originally he was an orthodox priest of the Death Sect, believing only in the God of Death. Totems like the Black Goat were the type he would respect but not worship. But now, considering that the God of Death hadn't formally responded in a long time, he included the Black Goat in his prayers as well. Anyone will do, just bless me to survive this catastrophe."Buzz buzz…"Then he suddenly saw the surrounding space becoming like flowing water, peeling away layer by layer.The Black Goat with burning flame-filled eyes and fierce horns appeared from the deep night, quietly looked at him once, even seemed to nod slightly, showing approval, then stepped through the air with all four hooves, quickly rushing toward the Blood-Flesh Rose."?"Yuan Guaizi was completely terrified.What's happening?I didn't draw a summoning array, didn't prepare sacrifices, just casually muttered a sentence……and the Black Goat's projection directly descended?……Not just him. At this moment in Scrap Iron City, various strange creatures suddenly appeared throughout the city.The earth cracked, and huge flesh-like trees climbed up from underground, with lush branches and leaves hanging human heads.The dense sound of scales scraping and cutting arose as silver strange snakes swam through countless people's pupils.Clip-clop went the hoofbeats.A headless knight holding his own head in his arms, riding a horse covered in black armor, appeared at the end of the street.Dark clouds gathered in the sky, and a face without eyes or nose, only a mouth, looked down at Scrap Iron City from above……………Countless Upper Totems projected into Scrap Iron City at this moment.They either came through believers' prayers, through summoning arrays prepared long ago, or had been watching Scrap Iron City's every move, or were just passing by and seeing this place was so lively, came to greet old friends.Each totem's appearance made Scrap Iron City even more chaotic.Fortunately, the people in the city center had already evacuated, and they each had their own purposes, not arbitrarily releasing their power.Otherwise, by this moment, Scrap Iron City would have become a dead zone.Countless totems released various different but equally terrifying powers, surging toward the Blood-Flesh Rose.The Blood-Flesh Rose's huge tentacles were instantly severed one by one, writhing on the ground like giant pythons.The earth collapsed, buildings toppled.At this moment, Scrap Iron City was like it had become hell.…………In front of the Blood-Flesh Rose, Wei Wei had shot down the Seventh Sect and was enjoying rare happiness.Then he suddenly felt terrible air tremors sweep across the entire city.Especially centered on this location, Wei Wei saw nightmare projections appearing in reality in all directions around him.He saw a huge eyeball monster drill out from another dimension in the left mid-air.In the right mid-air, a Black Goat with flame-filled eyes rapidly approached.On the street below, earth and concrete blocks were lifted piece by piece as flesh monster trees shot skyward.In the dim eyes of a dead person hanging on a nearby wall, a silver snake quickly swam through his pupils.A dark rotting dragon spread its sky-blocking wings.In the sky, a stiff and eerie face without eyes or nose slowly emerged from the dark clouds…Because of his special position, Wei Wei, caught directly in the middle, was momentarily stunned.Is this a totem convention?…………It wasn't only the Seventh Sect that had set their sights on God's Death Knell.There were many mysterious organizations. Scrap Iron City, on the edge of the Mental Barrier, a small city among small cities, had a proportion of Transcendents far exceeding other places, even some Second City Defense Line cities. The reason was that even though there hadn't been much evidence in the past three years proving God's Death Knell was here, for that one percent possibility, they still made arrangements.For example, throwing some believers here, whether there are dates or not, give the tree a shake.At least when the critical moment came, with believers here, totems or "gods" would have channels to project over.Massive totems descended upon Scrap Iron City, filling the surrounding space, seeming to be everywhere.It gave people a feeling.As if the lofty totems who rarely deigned to respond to believers once, suddenly became worthless.If you all responded this diligently normally, the Foundation would have had no business in this world long ago…These normally lofty totems, how did they suddenly all become model workers?…………"Life prison confirmed to exist, now conducting mental imprint comparison…""Confirmed that Scrap Iron City designation 01 life prison mental imprint belongs to High Priest Bai Li who escaped with God's Death Knell thirty years ago.""Detected Knowledge Demon System rank 2 Upper Totem Eye of True Knowledge, detected Death Demon System rank 3 Upper Totem Black Goat, detected Life Demon System rank 2 Upper Totem Mother Tree of Life, detected Curse Demon System…""……"At the same time, outside Scrap Iron City, in a temporarily constructed secret command post, someone quickly handed over documents while others stared intently at a complex instrument covered in patterns, rapidly reporting these Upper Totems gathered in Scrap Iron City. The atmosphere in the command post had tightened to the extreme. Finally, someone sighed softly, "The time we've been waiting for has come.""Thirty years. Priest Bai Li, one of the three High Priests of the Twelve Gods Church, fled with God's Death Knell. Many thought this was the Foundation's arrangement, but they didn't know that the Foundation also didn't know what his purpose was, much less would they imagine that the once lofty High Priest would actually hide in this small Scrap Iron City, transforming into a flesh prison just to contain God's Death Knell…""Regardless, have Miss Qing Niao take action. It's time to resolve this problem."
