Tong Shan said, "This is about taking the lives of ordinary people in Hai Province hostage to bind the manpower of the Security Bureau... Just two incidents have caused panic throughout Hai Province.
Who do you think of with such bold moves?"
Wen Wen did not speak, silently smoking with her head lowered.
The flickering light was drenched by the rainwater.
Twisting and shattering between her tightly clenched fingers, fragnts fell into the rainwater, rolling into the foul-slling darkness.
And the sound of the torrential rain, for a mont, ceased.
Only dead silence remained.
"The Evil Cult..."
Wen Wen's eyes were pitch-black as she raised her head, looking towards the sky where the rainwater had frozen and suspended from the Static Zone, and silently sighed, "First, it was the Dragon Sacrifice Ceremony, and now these lunatics.
How co this kind of lingering nace can never be completely eradicated?"
.
.
Everything that had passed faded without a trace.
In just a fleeting mont, Ji Jue staggered back a step, gasping for air.
He returned from the records of the past to the interior of Ti Ruins.
He raised his hand, stopping Tong Hua's impulse to speak.
"Let's go back to the office first."
After a safe and smooth journey back to the office, Tong Hua saw Ji Jue, this damn guy, had already chained up the entrance.
Then, he took out a Blood Bottle from his pocket and pulled out the Skull Spirit Cage from his waist—now, the light in the skull's eyes was so green it had reddened, no knowing how much he had embezzled.
At this mont, using blood rich in vitality and spiritual substances as material, Ji Jue started to splatter the blood on the walls.
With fingers strengthened by Material Enhancent, close to tal in hardness, and further strengthened by Heavenly Skill, he directly used his fingers like a chisel, engraving a Spiritual Circuit all around the walls, from left to right, top to bottom.
He did not spare even the floor and ceiling.
After just a few minutes, the originally tidy and solemn office had turned into a club for an Evil Cult group, dripping with blood everywhere and filled with crimson patterns.
One might even believe that this place was preparing for a sacrifice to the Evil God and Evil Foolish.
"It's an ergency asure, just a makeshift solution."
Having finished, Ji Jue clapped his hands and directly placed the skull between the Spiritual Circuit, instantly causing the spiritual substances to flow and expand, sealing off the entire office inside and out.
Such makeshift asures were really fooling the ghost if it were about isolating a workshop, yet it was sufficient for seeking closure and avoiding prying eyes.
"Alright, now we can talk."
Ji Jue asked, "What else did you find in the fragntary records?"
"This Ti Ruin ca drifting from the Spring City Cave."
Tong Hua sighed, sorting out those ssy discoveries, "If I'm not wrong, the place we are in now is the last hospital before the destruction of Spring City decades ago.
Yet just half a month ago, this place was rely a den housing many monsters, its transformation into a Ti Ruin must have just begun recently."
...
Ji Jue remained silent, understanding her implication.
If for decades, this hospital was nothing but a ruin, then why suddenly did it transform into a Ti Ruin? Maybe it was influenced subtly and cumulatively by the environnt within the cave, with Superior and Evil Foolish entangled, creating inextricable contradictions and distortions.
But the question is, even if it beca a Ti Ruin, how could it suddenly drift and then appear in Cliff City?
As if the ga's copy was directly dragged over by an elder brother.
But how did it drift into the territory of Cliff City?
Knowing that Cliff City was far from the relics of Spring City, one could even say it is at both ends of Hai Province. Why didn't it go to closer Ship City or more connected Tide City, but after passing through a smaller city like Jiang City, directly pressed towards Cliff City?
Ji Jue still rembered Zhao Zhou, who disappeared in front of his eyes.
Wasn't he just employed by the Security Bureau to patrol the periphery of the ruins of Spring City?
Too many mysteries, yet they are too far from Ji Jue, leaving him no ti to ponder their implications as right now, just surviving within Ti Ruins was his utmost effort.
Until now, he was rely temporarily secure through the conflict among hospital regulations, superiors, colleagues, and patients.
And the existence of the Lord and core remained clueless.
He pondered for a mont, then took out the Soul Summoning Bell from his pocket.
After the surgery, before Director Qian ca again to throw trouble his way, he finally got a brief rest period, but this didn't an he could be completely at ease.
The key now was to first explore the entire structure of the hospital.
The risk of sending people for such tasks was far too great. After all, no one knew what ghastly entities lurked deep inside the hospital, or whether those attending physicians had any territorial instincts...
So expendables were necessary.
Ding~
A crisp sound echoed within the sealed office, the blood-colored Spiritual Circuit on the surrounding walls suddenly brightened, confining the bell's sound within the room.
Then, Ji Jue began to feel fortunate that he had made ample preparations...
In the originally empty office, countless indistinguishable figures erged one after another, and their faint moans overlapped, causing dizzying waves.
Just within this single office, there were already so many Residual Spirit Fragnts.
Then, Ji Jue rang the bell a second ti, many residual spirits converged in the bell, winding around the clapper. And when the third sound rang, one after another, translucent spiritual spiders the size of fingertips fell from the bell.
