Chapter 230: Hunting Night (10)
It turned out that Lin An indeed had the ability to escape from the Witch Hunter Knights’ encirclement.
Even though he had two people in his mouth, even though the Witch Hunter Knights pursued relentlessly.
But…
Zhuang’s condition was getting worse and worse.
Deprived of spiritual protection, his mind was being influenced by the Spirit World Aura, which leveraged his memories, obsessions, and emotions, and under the catalysis of Spiritual Energy, further affected his body.
From this perspective, there was no difference between a statue that a Witch-hunting Knight had become and a Sorcerer Zombie a wizard had transformed into.
One had its spirituality twisted by Spiritual Energy, capturing the mind and ultimately affecting the body.
The other’s spirituality began to diverge from the mind, leading to a twisted mind due to the absence of spirituality, ultimately affecting the body.
As for the effect, one became a monster filled with raging emotions, the other emotionless, turned into a wooden figure.
Lin An stopped, placed Zhuang and Caidai on the ground from his mouth, and reverted to human form, looking somewhat helplessly at the Witch-hunting Knights closing in.
“I really just wanted to save Uncle Zhuang!”
The old man in a lab coat wore a stern expression, exchanged glances with those beside him, and shook their heads at each other, obviously deciding to strictly enforce the Witch Hunter Knights’ death principle.
No matter whether An intended to save Zhuang or not…
Having set this precedent, whenever other Witch Hunter Knights perished, people would always find some excuse to start examining their corpses.
This was not only a disrespect to human guardians but also completely severed the possibility of that Witch-hunting Knight’s return from the River of Blood in the future.
If these elders who were not bothered by Lin An being a black cat thought so, those opposing Witch Hunter Knights would certainly never agree.
The portly elder sneered at Lin An, “Run, why aren’t you running now?”
Lin An pursed his lips and shook his head, “If we delay any longer, Zhuang really won’t have a chance.”
At that moment, everyone turned to look into the distance.
A cool-looking sports car was speeding towards them; the car seemed in bad shape, riddled with dents and scratches.
The sports car screeched to a halt, and the young boss forcefully pushed open the door and got out.
He leaned on his knees, panting and sweating profusely, and when he noticed everyone looking, he cursed, “You’re more badass than a sports car, damn it, I almost couldn’t catch up.”
He walked briskly to Lin An, pointed at him, then turned to the uncles and nodded, “No matter what An plans to do, I’m saying it today, this person, I’m protecting.”
The portly elder leaned back, beaming with a smile, looking at the young boss as one might look at a silly child, counting on his fingers, “Have you noticed the invisible chasm between you and me?”
The young boss was stunned for a moment, “What did you say?”
Suddenly, everyone burst into laughter, the old man in a lab coat chuckled twice, kindly reminding, “Dexian, you’re in the real world, we’re in the Purgatory World, right now you can’t even touch us!”
The young boss came to a realization, “Oh, that, no problem!”
With that, he clenched his fists and breathed deeply.
This was clearly a novelty; Lu Dexian actually had a way to enter the Purgatory World?
Everyone watched him intently, wondering what method he would use. As a protected member of the next generation, some of Lu Dexian’s actions did not receive approval from the Lu Jiao, and many were already looking forward to when this guy would have children.
“Ha~”
The young boss let out a roar, his face turning red, and he suddenly took a step forward.
“!!!”
The portly elder blinked and sized him up, “You are still in the real world.”
“No, just wait a minute, I need to feel it for a bit!” the young boss explained, and immediately everyone burst into laughter.
“Got it!”
The young boss’s eyes suddenly lit up, and sharp spikes suddenly shot out from above his head, extending and branching upwards, finally forming a pair of enormous antlers.
The antlers radiated bluish-purple light, specks of faint light wafted from the antlers, spreading around him, with more light traveling along the antlers into the young boss’s head, sinking all the way to his chest.
“Mr. Lu’s Furnace Core!” the portly elder exclaimed joyfully, “You finally figured it out, right? Are you planning to officially join the Lu Jiao family?”
New novel chapt𝒆rs are published on ƒгeewebnovёl.com.
“No, this is just a temporary means of support.” The young boss’s lips curled up, and he slowly raised one hand, and countless streams of light converged into a massive two-handed sword in his hand.
The sword weighed down, and he quickly reached out with the other hand to grip it tightly, half-squatting, staring at the elders, “I told An, I would protect him, and today is finally the moment to strut, oh, I mean to keep my promise.”
The chubby elder’s brows furrowed as he stared at the young boss, “You have no idea what you’re doing!”
The young boss looked seriously at the elder, “No, I do.”
Yes, back then, An had reminded him that if he really wanted to do spy work, the best way for them in the internet industry was to infiltrate cell phones.
The young boss was greatly inspired and actually planned to get several uncles and elders new phones, as a way to install monitoring software.
But, to his utter astonishment, he found that many of their phones already had monitoring software installed.
Installed by his father back in the day!
And the password was his birthday!
This was a bit…
The young boss used it without any reservations, naturally knowing what had happened tonight.
“Clueless about life…” The chubby elder’s expression cooled as he glared at the young boss, gripping the weapon in his hand, “Let me teach you a lesson and show you what a real Witch-hunting Knight is. Getting the Furnace Core isn’t enough.”
The young boss chuckled, “All of you come at me, I can’t be bothered to deal with you one by one!”
“Seeking death!” The chubby elder flashed in front of the young boss and reached out with a thick, sturdy hand towards him.
However, the young boss just chuckled and flicked the spine of the huge sword.
Humming~~
A strange buzzing noise filled the air, causing the chubby elder’s complexion to change as he quickly retreated, and he wasn’t the only one; almost all of the Witch Hunter Knights fell back.
“Impossible!” The chubby elder looked at the young boss as if seeing something terrifying, “Death Sword Whistle! That’s Mr. Lu’s skill! Even if you inherited his Furnace Core, how could you possibly wield his skill?”
This move was clearly extremely terrifying, as all the Witch Hunter Knights looked at the young boss with doubtful shock.
The young boss just laughed boastfully, “Can’t help it, I’m just that awesome.”
But his spirit was not saying the same thing.
Unlike his hearty laughter, the husky head that emerged from his collar was shrouded in gloom at the moment.
His face was twisted, his mood uncertain.
He slowly said, “Because this is a move my dad made…”
“I’ve always said I suspect my dad isn’t dead, but you wouldn’t believe me. He hasn’t gone anywhere; he’s in Lu Jiao.”
“Do I really not want to inherit Lu Jiao? Who would be so foolish as to not want to inherit something so awesome?”
“Every time I load Lu Jiao temporarily, I feel like it’s my dad devouring me, turning me into him bit by bit!!!!!”
“Sometimes in the middle of the night, I’m suddenly so scared, thinking about how much I want to make a game. Is it to inherit my forebear’s glory, or is it because my dad wanted to do this?”
“Wuwuwu, he’s dead, yet he’s not.”
“As long as he turns me into him, he is me, I am him, and it doesn’t make a difference if he’s dead or not.”
“Having children is the continuation of life, what a terrifying practice.”
“Of course he loves me, I know, but he, no, everyone in the Supernatural World has messed up in the head. Who knows if he thought doing this was for my own good!”
“It’s just like scrambled eggs, isn’t it!”
“I’m a person, I want to live like a person, not as someone’s son, not as a continuation of someone else, I am me!”
“Wuwuwu, I’m done for, I’ve been trapped!”
“I’ve worked so hard, why don’t I have a child? Mr. Cao said he would remove my Lu Jiao once I had a child!”
“An, oh An, I’ve done right by you through and through.”
“Damn it, every second I endure now is a step towards becoming my dad.”
The young boss held the huge sword in his hand, looking very smug as he addressed everyone, “It’s not personal, but none of you here can beat me!”
Lin An looked intently at the young boss’s back, pursed his lips, and continued to study the roots between Zhuang and Caidai.
As soon as the young boss appeared, he had begun considering how to heal Zhuang.
Now, finally, he was getting somewhere!
