Chapter 236: 235 Invader
“What did you see?”
“All the surveillance has been shut down, I’m now connecting to the exterior cameras. Wait… there are gunshots coming from the hall, I’m going out to check the situation.”
Ailuodi immediately stood up and said, “Sorry, we need to interrupt the party for a bit, the castle might be invaded.”
These words caused the crowd to look over in surprise.
“What? An invasion?”
“Isn’t this a private estate? Shouldn’t the guards call the police if someone breaks in?”
“May I ask who you are…?”
“Let me introduce her to everyone,” Kelo stood up and gave a gesture of respect to his chest, “This Angel is named Ailuodi, perhaps she thought the atmosphere here was too sad, so she wanted everyone to relax—”
“Shut up!” Ailuodi interrupted him without any courtesy, “I’m not joking, the ones who have invaded here are…”
She suddenly stopped.
Because she heard Chaoyang say four words in her mind.
“Parasitic Seed”!
Chaoyang stood at the edge of the second-floor atrium, shocked by the turn of events in the lobby: Two Parasitic Seeds had somehow breached the Castle Hotel, and the hotel staff had no clue what they were dealing with. The receptionist by the door was instantly sliced in half by the black tentacles, with blood and entrails spilling all over the floor. The guards were brave enough to fulfill their duties, drawing their guns and firing at the enemy, but their sparse bullets couldn’t penetrate the monsters’ bodies. The tentacles not only blocked the bullets but also decapitated the guards.
In less than half a minute, seven or eight mutilated corpses lay in the lobby, while others screamed and fled toward the emergency exits. Meanwhile, the Parasitic Seeds moved slowly, step by step, towards the upstairs.
Damn it, why are there potted plant monsters here too?
Chaoyang dared not linger in place. He returned to his room, locked the door immediately, then reproduced a safety rope, planning to slide down from the balcony.
“Leisk, Luowei Siya, can you hear me? There are monsters from the Causal Sect in the castle, how are things on your side?”
“The Causal Sect? In the Paradise Master’s The Divine Country?” Luowei Siya sounded quite shocked, “Everything’s fine on our side for now. Are you alright? I’ll come to rescue you right away!”
“No need to come over, just warn the people at the stables. I’ll figure something out here.”
Just as Chaoyang finished securing the safety rope, he heard a piercing scream from the corridor.
Clearly, some other Angel’s relatives or friends were in trouble.
But he had no time to care about those strangers now.
In a situation where the enemy was unknown, even sacrificing a clone was an unacceptable loss, after all, it would take at least twenty-four hours for him to send a new one.
After descending to the ground with the safety rope, Chaoyang immediately found a corner to hide in. Through the window, he was shocked to see that the number of evil seeds active in the castle lobby was far more than he had expected; there were easily more than ten! Moreover, they weren’t all staying in the hotel area to search for survivors. A considerable number was heading deeper into the castle, where the Angels’ chapel was located!
…
“What’s invading here, speak up!” Dolly said, clearly dissatisfied.
“It’s a kind of monster.” Ailuodi chose to trust Chaoyang, “They typically have a humanoid lower body, while the upper body is made of four to five branched black strands. If they invade here, remember not to get within ten meters of them! If that distance is breached, immediately take flight to buy time. If those black tentacles hit a vital spot, even Angels can die.”
Everyone looked at each other with confusion.
“What monster? I think you’re the one who’s gone mad!” Dolly clenched her fists, “Tiffany was clearly harmed by a demon, and you don’t even feel sad for her, yet why do you spout such insane nonsense at a time like this?”
However, Ailuodi paid her no mind, “Mr. K, is there an emergency exit for evacuation here?”
“Beneath the statue of the Holy Angel there is a fire door, which leads to an underground tunnel that goes directly to the racecourse in the north,” K responded. “But how did you find out that monsters have entered the Castle? I haven’t received any alarms from the guards.”
“This…”
Ailuodi was at a loss for words, as she certainly couldn’t say that a demon was tipping her off.
“Dan, check the situation inside the Castle,” K turned his head to the person beside him.
“Yes.” Dan took out his phone, swiped quickly for a moment, and then his face showed a look of surprise, “The surveillance has gone offline? I can’t see what’s going on outside.”
He then made a phone call, but all he got was a dead tone.
“The head of security isn’t at his post either… What on earth is going on?”

Now, everyone’s expressions shifted from the relaxed amusement and mockery to a hint of doubt.
“Can we open the fire door? This place isn’t suited for fighting monsters… If they pour in from all sides, I can’t protect everyone.”
“Wait a minute, who’s protecting whom?” Kelo spoke up, unwilling to accept this, “I haven’t fallen so low as to need protection from a little girl!”
“Don’t panic, this is the most defensively fortified area of the Castle, and it only has one entrance and one exit. The encirclement you’re worried about can’t happen here,” K said calmly. “Those who built this Castle had already prepared for the possibility of a demon attack here.”
“Really?” Kelo looked around, “I don’t think these windows look very impregnable.”
“Take another look?” Dan pressed a control button on his phone, and the colorful stained glass windows slowly sank into the ground, revealing the sturdy brick walls behind them.
“Well, I’ll be, even the light is fake.”
Da-da-da-da—!
Before they could marvel, a continuous rattle of gunfire suddenly erupted from the way they came!
Everyone was taken aback.
“The gunfire is from our defensive system,” Dan nodded to Ailuodi, “It appears you were right, young lady. Some uninvited guests really have come into the Castle. But this passage is not so easy to navigate for anyone other than angels.”
“Oh, damn, are there guns hidden in those holes?” Kelo said in disbelief, “Isn’t that too dangerous?”
These idiots, Ailuodi cursed silently in her heart, ritualistic showmanship has its limits! Turning spears used for stabbing into guns might seem to increase their power, but now the firing range of the guns is completely restricted by those holes, isn’t it? They would be better off installing a couple of remote-controlled machine-gun turrets on the ceiling!
Moreover, ordinary bullets did not have a high lethality against parasitic species; even with their bodies torn apart, if their legs weren’t broken, they could still move. Qianyuan Meiko and Anthony and others had already verified this with their lives.
“Everyone, gather behind me!” Ailuodi shouted, “If there comes a moment where we need to use our powers, don’t be stingy with your energy!”
The sound of gunfire had now continued for about thirty seconds and showed no sign of stopping.
At this point, everyone realized something was amiss—even if the intruder was made of iron, thirty seconds of bullets would have shredded him by now, so why did the gunfire seem even more intense?
It wasn’t ten or dozens of guns firing…
It was as if the entire passage’s gun ports were shooting!
