Chapter 425: 425
“It’s a pity that the Faceless Skull can’t be used… Otherwise, infiltration would be a straightforward process.”
Walking in the long black corridor, Han Dong tried to lower his presence and slow his steps as much as possible.
Thanks to the attention of the G Virus Corps on the other end, over a dozen G Virus variants were no joke, if placed in the original “Biohazard” ga, they could undoubtedly wipe out the entire protagonist team.
After navigating the corridor, the sight that greeted him was not the expected military camp structure.
A huge number of black flags stuck in the ‘scorched earth’-like mountaintop.
“Huh?!”
The branding on the black flags bore a mark Han Dong was more than familiar with.
Both Chen Li and Togu had such marks remaining on their necks due to containnt – ‘A faceless face with eight curved tentacles evenly distributed around it’
Yes, a symbol of the Faceless Skull.
Nicole’s voice ca, “This is the ‘ssenger’s’ mark. This unruly group of humans is using the na of the Faceless ssenger to perform reckless summoning ceremonies.”
“The Faceless ssenger… The Faceless Sect?”
Han Dong then recalled the ‘Yellow Temple’.
“As expected, everything happening in the Fog World… is centered around .”
……
The opening of the[Gate]led to the complete destruction and devastation of the soil on the mountaintop, turning it into a kind of grey scorched earth with black spots.
A Gothic-style black church stood in the center of the scorched earth, while a corrupted statue of Jesus hung above the church’s entrance.
Countless charred arms clung to the sides of the church’s entrance where many humans nearby had been dragged to receive the ‘blessings’ of the sect.
Those who couldn’t bear the pain tried to escape the church, only to have their souls sucked right back in, leaving behind charred bodies.
On the scorched earth around the church, there were only lower-ranking believers in military attire.
Nicole’s voice ca again.
“These are just the weakest believers, responsible for basic patrolling and external communication.
They are not capable of fully rging with the void beings, they just received a bit of power from the[Bishop].
The core mbers of the sect are hidden in the depths of the church.
It took most of my essence to barely escape from the church… Once we get in, we’ll have to kill the bishop to have a chance to leave.”
Han Dong nodded, and poked the crow on his shoulder with his finger.
“Duo Zeya… Drive away the common soldiers, I need to observe the church structure up close.”
“Caw!”
Though Duo Zeya appeared reluctant, it promptly flew out.
Using a form of black magic, it transford into more than thirty crows of the sa kind, circling above the soldiers’ heads… quickly inviting gunfire.
Still, ordinary bullets couldn’t disperse the crows; the soldiers would need to reveal their true forms to counter, and soon a large number of them were drawn away.
Seizing this opportunity, Han Dong swiftly reached the front of the black church.
A liquid-like black barrier sealed the door shut.
This kind of barrier isolated the inside and outside of the church, so even standing at the entrance didn’t reveal anything about the interior of the church.
As Nicole had said, once you step into it, there’s no going back.
“Lead… Lead people! Why aren’t you going in yet?” Duo Zeya flew back.
Once Han Dong had grasped the structure of the sect and basic distribution, he showed an enlightened expression, “So they have a fully enclosed structure… in that case, there’s no need for stealth.
Kill all the low-ranking believers in the scorched earth area, then regroup with the villagers.
I guess, the so-called Lord Bishop wouldn’t leave the church… we just need to push deep in.
Duo Zeya, you can transform into your true form now, co with to battle the enemy.”
“Ok!”
Finally released from the constraints of being an ordinary crow, Duo Zeya transford into the ‘Double-headed Crow Man’ and fought alongside Han Dong against the soldiers in the scorched earth area.
Han Dong’s battle approach was simple.
Using the G Arm and Yellow Sand to block bullets, once the target was close, a direct execution with the fire axe followed by sucking the body dry with the tentacles… Perhaps because these ard instructors were mainly ‘human’, he needed to absorb two to increase a bit of Mythical Energy.
In the face of not-too-strong enemies, Duo Zeya beca courageous and resolute.
The combination of sharp claws and black magic left nothing of the instructors.
After about thirty combined kills by Han Dong and Duo Zeya.
The zombies, led by protagonist David, had dealt with the ard believers in the scorched earth area from the other end.
So villagers’ mutation characteristics beca more obvious in the fight, particularly the fat man in the team, whose belly width was almost ten ters… embedded with countless bullets.
Reuniting with the villagers was a bit awkward for Han Dong.
Even though, they didn’t know that their mutations were because of Han Dong.
But at the Black Wall, Han Dong had abandoned them and retreated back into the woods.
Due to the G Virus’s influence, the villagers were not as amicable as before.
This reconciliation’s dialogue content was especially critical, he had to pay attention to his words.
『Relationship change with Mr. David, dialogue guide is activated.』
1. “Mr. David, have you guys also gotten superpowers? (Pretend to be surprised, then show sadness and regret) Just now in the woods, I really didn’t have ti to co to your aid… I’m sorry!”
2. “I just knew that during our ti in the supermarket, we were all unconsciously granted superpowers.
However, you guys needed a catalyst to activate this power, I’m glad to see you have transford… our survival rate has increased.”
3. “I admit, all of this was part of my plan… I secretly introduced the mutation factor into the water supply.”
4. “Motherf*ck! Don’t look at with those eyes… You bunch of numbskulls can’t really believe that you can survive in the fog, can you?”
This ti.
Han Dong was dissatisfied with the four options given by the guide.
He chose to talk in his own way.
With a cold face, Han Dong said, “Let’s go… The mastermind behind the fog is hidden deep within the church.”
“Mr. Nicholas… Bringing us to the mountain and our bodies turning out strange, is it all part of your planning?”
“Yes.” Han Dong nodded, not denying it.
“Thank you…”
David did not bla Han Dong at all.
David understood one thing very clearly after experiencing multiple fog events.
The fog monsters that even the military couldn’t handle were impossible for a group of ordinary people to fight against, even if they had excellent equipnt; they weren’t fit to survive at all.
But Han Dong gave them a chance.
Just then.
David fell to one knee.
The other villagers also followed David’s action, humbling themselves in various ways before Han Dong.
“Please Mr. Nicholas, guide us out of this nightmare, kill the mastermind… We don’t care what we beco, we must drive the aliens in our world away.”
Looking at the scene, Han Dong seed sowhat resigned.
“I didn’t think it was going to end up like this… To be honest, I really don’t want to be a ‘leader’.”
And so.
Han Dong led a zombie army, and went deep into the black church.
