A few minutes later, the head of the last centipede was also pulled off by Chen Ling, completely devoid of life.
"Phew..." Chen Ling slowly stood up from the pool of blood. In the dead silent Dense Fog, he was the only one left standing alone.
Chen Ling swept his gaze over the surroundings. The residents behind the windows around him turned pale with fright and imdiately lay flat on the ground, deeply afraid of making eye contact with this living King Yama... Chen Ling had already solved all the troubles on this street, so he had beco the biggest trouble on this street.
Chen Ling walked forward along the street. Faint sobbing ca from the ruins of one of the buildings.
Among the fragnts of the shattered main door, a woman was holding a child, kneeling in front of a corpse that had been bitten beyond recognition, already crying a river of tears.
Chen Ling recognized this family. In past years during the Spring Festival, he had even brought Chen Yan to their ho to freeload candies and oranges.
Seeing this scene, Chen Ling actually didn't have much of a reaction in his heart. Perhaps it was because his mind was influenced by the Divine Pathway, his capacity for empathy had almost been completely erased. Even though this family in front of him had once been friendly with him, right now it was like watching a movie or a performance, with no ripples in his heart at all.
"Just now, that monster ca knocking on the door?" Chen Ling asked.
The woman froze for a mont, then nodded desperately.
"Did you answer?"
"...A... Answered." The woman's body trembled uncontrollably. She looked at that corpse in front of her. "I originally wanted to tell him not to make a sound... He insisted on asking who was knocking, and then that monster outside the door said it was looking for so... King?"
"And then?"
"And then we realized sothing was wrong, so we didn't speak anymore. But it finally rushed in anyway, and then..." The woman's voice choked up even more.
"...Enforcer Chen Ling, our door was also knocked on, but we didn't answer..." Right at this mont, Boss Xu next door carefully pushed open his door. "I heard that Calamities all have their own Domains and ways of killing. That monster... could it be that it kills based on knocking on doors?"
Chen Ling looked at Boss Xu in surprise. Although this person was timid, his brain didn't spin slowly.
"Looking at it so far, it's very likely." Chen Ling nodded.
Chen Ling had heard of the existence of "Calamity Domains" before, but up to now, he hadn't fully deduced the Domain ability of this Calamity. He only suspected it could manipulate human bodies through shadows... and also kill people by knocking on doors.
Chen Ling didn't stay long and strode forward to continue on.
A total of eight households on Frost Street were attacked by Calamities. Almost every household was not spared. Like that family just now where only one person died, it was considered good. Among them were two households that had already been gnawed away until not a single person was left, leaving only a floor full of shattered at paste.
This was even with the situation where Zhao Yi had escaped back early to report to Chen Ling... If it had been any later, the number of casualties would probably have doubled.
"Calamity Invasion occurred on Moon Street! Five have currently appeared!"
"Wind Street has four invading!"
"Snow Street here also has several... Damn it, they're rushing over!"
From the Walkie-talkie, the terrified shouts of the Law Enforcers ca out, followed imdiately by a series of static sounds...
"It's not just Frost Street alone..." Chen Ling's expression was sowhat grave.
"This is Xi Renjie. I have finished clearing Wind Street, now on my way to Snow Street." The voice from the Walkie-talkie rang out again. This was finally good news. As an Enforcer with two Markings, Xi Renjie's Combat Power was not weak.
"How are things on Chen Ling's side?" Han ng's voice rang out.
Chen Ling raised the Walkie-talkie and replied calmly,
"Frost Street clearing completed."
"You've already finished killing?" Xi Renjie's voice couldn't hide his surprise.
He had fought with these Calamities and knew their strength. For Chen Ling, a newcor who had just stepped onto the Way of the Soldier God, to be able to finish clearing this street in such a short ti was truly surprising.
Chen Ling gave a faint 'mm'.
"Right, where did you go?" Chen Ling seed to rember sothing.
"I'm on my way to the Steel Mill."
...
In the Dense Fog, a black blurred shadow flashed rapidly across the sky above District Three!
The strong wind blew the windbreaker engraved with four Markings so that it fluttered loudly. Han ng's calm eyes gazed at the Factory District approaching in the distance, and he spoke slowly:
"This is a reproductive-type Calamity. If the Matriarch is not destroyed, the Sub-Entities will be endless... You guys clear the district blocks first, I will deal with the Matriarch."
Han ng put away the Walkie-talkie, his figure cutting across the night sky like a black teor, landing steadily in front of the Factory District.
The wind whipped up by the hem of his clothes blew the sand and stones on the ground away, churning out a vacuum area in the Dense Fog. Han ng looked at this pitch-black, writhing factory in front of him, his eyes narrowing into a dangerous arc.
"...Troubleso."
Han ng's appearance seed to have alard the shadows in the Dense Fog. That entirely pitch-black factory surged violently. If one looked closely, they could see countless long centipedes crawling on its surface, rolling towards Han ng outside the iron gate like a tide!
This area of the Factory District had been occupied and turned into a Calamity's Nest at so unknown ti. And right now, a dangerous invader had appeared in this Nest.
"To breed such a terrifying number of Sub-Entities in one day's ti ans the Rank of the Matriarch itself is at least Fifth-Tier..." Han ng held the gun in one hand, took a cigarette from his chest with the other, placed it in the corner of his mouth, and lit it with a lighter.
He took a deep breath. The orange fla burned a corner in the Dense Fog. At the sa ti, an invisible Domain unfolded beneath his feet.
He raised the muzzle, aid at that swarming tide of shadows, and muttered to himself.
"Judgnt... begins."
Bang——!!
An invisible bullet shot out of the barrel, instantly breaking open a vacuum area several ters wide in the black tide. All the Shadow Centipedes on that path were simultaneously Deconstructed to the molecular level, completely dissipating into nothingness...
Densely packed shadows rushed out of the iron gate, first expanding in all directions, then contracting towards the center, tightly surrounding Han ng. A rough estimate put it at over a hundred!
Han ng pulled the trigger consecutively. The power of Judgnt tore open gap after gap in the tide. But under the encirclent from all directions, Han ng's area of activity was still rapidly shrinking. Relying purely on this single-caliber lethality made it difficult to protect himself under the massive sea of enemies.
If looking down from the sky, Han ng was like an isolated island about to be subrged by the shadows. With the gradual rise of the water level, it seed he would be swept away by it very soon.
Han ng frowned slightly. Seeing that he was about to be subrged, he suddenly raised his palm.
An Iron Rod that had been broken by the Shadow Centipedes vibrated, automatically flying into his palm!
With a gun in one hand and holding the Iron Rod in the other, Han ng spun it at high speed in his palm for several revolutions, then abruptly thrust it into the ground!
Thud——!!
Ripples visible to the naked eye swept out in all directions, the earth cracking inch by inch!
The power of Deconstruction mixed within these ripples and swept out. Dozens of Shadow Centipedes closest to Han ng burst apart on the spot. The area covered by the Domain was once again reduced to a vacuum, as if an invisible giant hand had forcibly erased all matter here. The terrifying destructive power of the 【Judgnt】 path was fully displayed at this mont!
Han ng's gaze locked onto the factory. He forcefully pulled that Iron Rod out of the earth and threw it out like a javelin. A black thunderbolt instantly streaked across the firmant!
Boom——!!!
The tall Steel Mill was smashed head-on with a cavity tens of ters wide. The thick walls seed to evaporate out of thin air. Through the cavity, one could see a giant centipede coiled up inside. Only a face with a dark red mouth slowly turned towards this direction.
Han ng stood on the shattered earth. His gaze passed through the surging black tide, locking onto that massive entity inside the factory.
"Found you."
