When the black coffin erged behind Director He, everyone present involuntarily stepped back a few paces, distancing themselves from it.
"What are you doing?"
Seeing this, Director He frowned, sowhat bewildered.
But then, he seed to realize sothing, his eyes suddenly widening.
A chilling aura struck from behind, and in an instant, every hair on his body stood on end.
Just as he was about to take a step forward to escape, a cold, inexplicably soft hand suddenly grasped his shoulder.
This hand was like an iron clamp, holding his body firmly in place.
No matter how hard he tried to struggle, his body wouldn’t budge an inch.
At this mont, Director He’s mind involuntarily recalled so surveillance footage he had seen.
It seed like the vampire zombie grabbed living humans in just this manner and then dragged them into the coffin.
And then, a dried-up corpse would be thrown out of the coffin...
As his recollections concluded, the next second he felt a trendous force dragging his body backward.
"Old Daoist, save ..."
At this critical mont, Director He used his last bit of strength to shout to Zhenyuan.
"You fiend, how dare you harm people in front of this old Daoist!?"
Zhenyuan’s eyes widened in anger, and he shouted.
That shout was like a great bell, causing the eardrums of those around to ache.
The vampire zombie in the black coffin was also montarily stunned by the shout.
"Daoist, save quickly!"
Director He cried out for help again.
At this mont, Zhenyuan quickly took out a golden talisman from his robe.
He ford a spell with his hands, chanting under his breath.
The golden talisman, as he chanted, surprisingly emitted dazzling electric arcs.
"Thunder God Thunderbolt, Wind and Cloud Gathering!"
"Covering Ten Directions, Qiankun Positioning!"
"Hurry up!"
After the magic spell was chanted, the golden talisman instantly transford into a beam of golden light, shooting straight into the sky.
Everyone around who saw this scene was dumbfounded.
Not only were foreigners like Henderson visibly shocked, but even Group Leader Qi and others were astounded.
This was the first ti they had seen Zhenyuan perform his magic!
And what followed left everyone even more flabbergasted.
As the golden talisman rose into the sky, the previously clear sky suddenly changed dramatically!
Clouds gathered, layer upon layer, bringing an unprecedented sense of oppression.
Everyone present involuntarily looked up.
Each person’s expression was sowhat blank, a reaction to the extre shock they had just experienced.
"Boom!"
Just then, a trendous clap of thunder resonated.
A beam of lightning, as thick as a barrel, suddenly descended from the clouds, striking straight down.
"Ah!"
The brilliant lightning struck precisely into the black coffin, instantly exploding into countless points of light.
The vampire zombie inside the coffin let out a wail, imdiately releasing its grip on Director He, then burrowing into the earth and disappeared without a trace.
"Thud!"
Director He fell to his knees on the ground, gasping heavily.
The fear in his eyes was yet to dissipate.
Just a mont ago, he was this close to becoming a dried-up corpse like Leonard, Mark, and others.
"What are you all standing around for?"
"Hurry up and help Director He up!"
Seeing this, Group Leader Qi quickly instructed a few team mbers beside him.
The tall team mber and the chubby youth responded imdiately, rushing to Director He and helping him up from the ground.
"Unbelievable!"
"Simply unbelievable!"
Henderson turned to look at Zhenyuan, his eyes full of admiration.
Before, he hadn’t paid much attention to this elder from Dragon Country, but now, upon closer inspection, he was surprised to find a very unique aura about him.
Prior to this, he had never seen such an aura in anyone.
"No! He’s definitely not a superpower user!"
"But a divine descendant fallen to the mortal realm!"
Henderson boldly speculated in his heart.
After all, in any mythological story, only deities can wield the power of thunder.
This elder, who could summon divine thunder and drive away the monster, must be a descendant of the deities!
"It seems Dragon Country has hidden a lot of things indeed!"
"Like this divine elder, and that fierce vampire creature..."
Henderson mused silently.
Apart from him, mbers of several other national investigation teams around were also filled with amazent and shock.
Everyone looked at Zhenyuan with shining eyes.
They were quite familiar with the might of that vampire creature.
Even ard helicopters and special forces teams couldn’t do anything to it.
Yet this elder before them could summon thunder to drive it away.
This kind of ability was simply enviable!
If they could have such power for themselves, wouldn’t they beco gods in this world?
"The zombie has a coffin Dharma artifact protecting it, probably only lightly injured."
"My actions earlier might have angered it."
"We must take the opportunity while the zombie is not willing to act rashly to escape this blood mist!"
Zhenyuan surveyed everyone with a solemn expression and said.
"This is not a place to linger!"
"How is that vampire zombie so formidable that even the old Daoist couldn’t eliminate it?"
"Nonsense, the zombie had absorbed so much blood, its blood ’health bar’ is likely absurdly thick!"
"The old Daoist is right, the zombie didn’t die, what are we standing here for? Isn’t this courting death?"
"Hurry, hurry, let’s leave here quickly!"
mbers of the Dragon Country investigation team murmured among themselves before turning their gaze towards Director He and Group Leader Qi.
"What are you looking at for? According to the old Daoist’s words, let’s go!"
Director He responded, irritated.
"Mr. Henderson, that creature wasn’t severely hard."
"It might return with a vengeance, so we must seize the opportunity to escape now!"
Group Leader Qi translated Zhenyuan’s words simply to Henderson and others.
"Okay, let’s go quickly!"
Henderson and the others were no fools.
Knowing that the vampire creature wasn’t severely hurt, staying here would be very dangerous.
So this ti, without any dispute, they followed Zhenyuan in leaving the blood mist area.
But after nearly half an hour of running, everyone’s physical strength was almost at its limit.
It seed so were about to give in.
"Hang in there!"
"We are almost out of the blood mist’s range!"
"If you don’t believe it, look ahead..."
Zhenyuan encouraged everyone, then pointed to the front.
Everyone looked intently and saw that about four or five hundred ters ahead was the edge of the blood mist.
Beyond it, there was no interference from the blood mist, everything was normal.
"Great! We’re finally getting out!"
A female mber from Dragon Country couldn’t help but cry with joy at the sight.
But at this mont, the surrounding blood mist began to boil like it was alive...
