Zuo Dao Becomes a God Starting from American Horror

Chapter 333 The Real and Fake Book Club

"Not bad, it seems that fusing with parasitic species is a good approach."

Most ordinary people do not have the aptitude for cultivation, or rather, cultivation is not cost-effective. Unless they practice evil methods for quick results, it takes a lot of time to acquire combat power.

It's faster to just use various props and semi-magical artifacts.

But the black-armored soldiers created using this parasitic species are different. They are cost-effective, quick to develop, and not bad in strength. Apart from their weaknesses and lack of upward mobility, they are an excellent path for ordinary people.

How is Beth doing now?

Beth is the parasitic queen that Louis captured earlier.

“Young Master, Queen Beth has been imprisoned on the fourth underground floor and is under strict guard. Her condition is stable now. All the parasites she produces are selected from the best, and the inferior ones are all burned. She is very safe and there is no risk of her escaping.”

"that is……"

Uncle Fu's expression was slightly complicated.

"Hmm? Uncle Fu, what's wrong?"

Uncle Fu is his head steward. Although he is currently in charge of affairs at the Cleaner Company, he used to oversee affairs at the base and knows a lot about them.

"The alien queen, who is also imprisoned, has been very restless and is looking for an opportunity to escape every day. She has injured people many times. The base has used some special methods, but the queen seems to be slowly evolving and becoming more and more resistant. Now the dosage of large-scale anesthetics and anesthetic aerosols used every day is getting larger and larger. According to the speculation of the professors at the base, if this continues, one day we may have to use liquid nitrogen directly for assistance."

As Fu Bo said this, he opened another folder containing videos. In the videos, a large monster that looked like a bee or an ant queen was constantly destroying things in a white alloy room, with waves of sound emanating from it, making it seem extremely powerful.

A large amount of gas was released into the room. It took five minutes for me to become drowsy, and ten minutes later I collapsed to the ground. At this point, staff members wearing various protective suits appeared and carefully entered the room.

They began to collect the newborn larvae.

So much anesthetic gas, it took five minutes to take effect, and ten minutes to be successful...

It seems this thing is indeed developing resistance.

Louis stared intently at it, thinking that this thing might have some good potential.

"I understand about this matter. I will handle it in a while. Also, I need to recruit some senior scholars in the field of biological genes to form a team. The previous team doesn't seem to be up to the task."

Using scientific methods to analyze the mysterious is something Louis has been doing all along, but he hasn't achieved much in recent years. Now, seeing this alien queen with the potential to mass-produce biological weapons like the Zerg, Louis has a new idea in mind.

Perhaps we should increase our investment.

Uncle Fu nodded and recorded these things in his log.

soon.

The team is back.

The book also came to Louis.

Louis dismissed the wealthy peasants, remaining alone in his office. He even waved his hand to set up a protective barrier before looking down.

This is a large, thick, yellow-black book with undulating lines drawn on it. There are also some unknown sharp teeth cutting into the pages, like a mysterious version of a combination lock.

At a glance, Louis saw the evil contained in the book.

"Is it made of human skin, the Book of the Dead?"

Louis tried to turn the pages of the book, but he couldn't open it.

He squinted his eyes.

Louis understood that, according to the Book of the Dead in "Evil Dead," this thing might need human blood to be unsealed. Of course, there are different versions of this horror movie, so there might be other settings as well.

Furthermore, according to the little bee, this book requires the merging of two types of blood to fulfill its purpose.

Regardless of the method, blood is needed.

But so what if it needs blood? Am I really going to give it blood?

Louis smiled, and with a thought, he unleashed the power of his Yang God, forcibly turning the pages of the book.

Crunchy——

A sharp, unpleasant sound gradually emerged, and even began to change as Louis's Yang God power increased.

Eerie shrieks, the cries of infants, the lamentations of women, the furious shouts of men, inhuman roars…

Various sounds began to appear one after another, layer upon layer, overlapping each other, giving rise to more eerie sounds. These sounds even tried to spread out, but encountered the barrier set up by Louis at the boundary of the room.

hum! !

The red light flashed, and the sound was completely confined to the room. Seeing that it could not spread out, it began to concentrate and come toward Louis.

Louis, seeing the thing resist, laughed instead of getting angry, "That's it?"

next second.

Snapped!
The power of the Yang God intensified, instantly flipping the book cover over to reveal the pages inside, which were densely covered with text and simple patterns resembling demons.

Its entire body glowed, easily blocking these strange and unusual sounds from entering, leaving it completely untouched.

But then, seemingly realizing that they couldn't do anything to Louis, the words and patterns suddenly began to disappear, like words written in octopus ink.

Wow!
He mobilized the power of his Yang God in an attempt to fix it, only to find that the other party was self-destructing and could not be stopped. His mind raced, and Louis decided to increase the power of his Yang God and quickly flipped through the entire book.

slam-la-

Five seconds later.

The entire book had lost its text, leaving only a blank white space. Apart from its bizarre shape, there was no content on it. However, Louis could still feel the evil aura emanating from it.

Louis closed his eyes in thought, then opened them a moment later, looking at the book with a hint of regret in his eyes.

Good news, the contents of this book are true.

Bad news, this is a fake book.

Or rather, this is just a replica of the real book.

"The Candaria demons are a collective consciousness that can possess bodies and create undead in large numbers. Indeed, it is the Book of the Dead from Evil Dead."

"I don't even know if Ash still exists."

Louis's expression was somewhat grave.

He had only seen part of "Evil Dead," and the rest he watched on short videos. It seemed that in one of the "Evil Dead" movies, these demons eventually descended upon the present world in the future, launching a massive invasion and throwing the future world into chaos, successfully leading humanity into the apocalypse.

Ash is the protagonist of this series, a ruthless person who is skilled in physical exorcism, and even travels to the old era and the future to save the world.

This is the general outline of Evil Dead.

Ash's main target is a demon called Kandaria, a special type of demon that exists in great numbers and is sealed in Hell, only to be summoned through the Book of the Dead.

This race possesses a special ability: once possessed, they are difficult to kill. They also have many unique individuals with special abilities such as controlling lightning. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to bring about the apocalypse.

"However, in this horror story world, the church, God, and various mystical forces also exist. Although I don't understand why they are ignored, it is impossible for the Book of the Dead to destroy the world like in Evil Dead. It doesn't have that ability."

Putting everything else aside, just getting past him is a challenge. "And what's more, this thing is afraid of sunlight!"

Louis's tone was tinged with disbelief.

There's nothing I can do. After so many years of awakened memories, I haven't seen many evil creatures that are afraid of sunlight. At most, they are weakened by a little, but they are far from having the supreme and powerful aura of the sun that can dispel evil.

Now, this special demon race is afraid of sunlight; in fact, they will perish immediately upon contact with it.

Is this thing really unrelated to vampires?

There's no way of knowing the truth about this.

In any case, this is a good thing. This thing's weakness is too obvious. I have a lot of ways to use sunlight, and if nothing unexpected happens, the karmic fire should also be able to restrain it.

At first glance, it seems there's nothing to fear.

However, it should not be underestimated; if you can collect it, it's best to do so.

Louis now has some clues about where the original copy of this book is, in two directions.

One is Freddy's side. That guy learned about the Book of the Dead in Hell and has probably been searching for it outside all this time.

Another factor is the organization's superior, the so-called club. If they were able to release a counterfeit copy for experimentation, the probability that the headquarters has the genuine copy is not small.

"Freddy's still hanging around in the East, but this club is worth following the trail to—an organization formed by rich people... Heh, another watershed moment?"

Louis stroked his chin, thinking of the Watershed Company, a topic he hadn't thought of in a long time.

I wonder what that company is planning now; I haven't heard anything from them in a long time.

He shook his head, gathering his thoughts.

Louis looked at the book, picked it up, and thud!

The crimson flames burned fiercely, spreading upwards from the last corner of the page.

As it burned, this time, the book no longer emitted those eerie, disturbing sounds. Instead, it emitted wisps of black, condensed, and persistent mist. This mist exuded a chilling aura, and looking at it for too long could even make one feel disoriented.

Of course, it was of no use to Louis.

The karmic fire continued to burn, and after thirty seconds, the entire book was finally burned to ashes, turning into black mist.

Waved.

The mist condensed and transformed into three black rhomboid crystals.

It fell into Louis's hands.

"The power of the Otherworldly Demons... the being who created this replica is no ordinary being."

That's right, this book contains the power of the Otherworldly Demons, which is why it can grant wishes. However, the amount of Otherworldly Demonic power in it is not much, and it can only grant six wishes that are neither too big nor too small.

Three of them were taken by that organization before, and now there are three left, which are the three black crystals in Louis's possession.

Louis carefully stroked the black crystal a couple of times, feeling the special power within it. "This power... is completely unfathomable. No wonder it can grant wishes."

"Is this the same kind of power that the Joker Otherworldly possesses?"

Louis also possessed an Otherworldly being, the same one his grandfather had previously owned. It was a clown doll box created a hundred years ago by a European priest for his family, who had fused an Otherworldly being with a human.

Because the user's soul would fall into hell, Louis stopped his grandfather from using it and sought other ways to prolong his life, and the box ended up in Louis's hands.

According to the Warrens, the Otherworldly beings were able to grant wishes because they were born by fusing with the broken authority of a god. The strongest Otherworldly being was Mephisto from Faust, who was second only to a few true demon kings in Hell and was a strong contender for the title of demon king.

"Divine authority..."

Louis put away the three black crystals.

He has other uses for the Clown Demon. This powerful tonic containing fragments of divine authority can only be used after he ascends to godhood and the side effects are eliminated.

Let's put it away for now.

At this time.

Uncle Fu knocked on the door. "Young Master, the interrogation results are in."

"Enter."

crunch.

The door opened, and Fubi walked in, holding the interrogation record in his hand. Louis took the record, and Uncle Fubi explained it to him.

"Young master, according to what that organizer said..."

"He was the sponsor I met during a university trip. At that time, he was just a fanatical paranormal enthusiast who traveled to places like Czechoslovakia, which were places full of mysterious rumors, in addition to places for casual sex."

"He met the man in a haunted village in Czechoslovakia, obtained the book, and then organized the group to start experiments."

“The funder has been in contact with him and meets with him every month to inquire about the progress.”

"In addition, what the little bee said about the two different kinds of pure blood being able to grant wishes is true, but there are some discrepancies. You also have to write your name into this book and pledge your soul before your wish can be granted."

As Louis had expected, the price of using demonic power to fulfill wishes was that one's soul would fall into hell, and using this book was no exception.

Louis continued to resist the interrogation records and discovered that they had only obtained the book a short time ago, just a year ago, which explained why only three wishes had been fulfilled so far.

"Oh, right, I also found out the name of that club. It's called... the Cruelty Club."

Just as Uncle Fau finished speaking, Louis finished flipping through the interrogation records in his hand.

"A torture club... composed of the rich... hiss..."

Louis suddenly thought of the young man he had met on the train, the young man who had successfully escaped from Hostel 1.

If I remember correctly, in the Inn of Human Skin, there was a cross-continental club formed by wealthy people, which was used specifically to traffic people and to torture and kill them for the rich to vent their frustrations.

These two things can't be related, right?

Louis fell into deep thought.

The marks he left behind are still there, and he can vaguely sense locations. As long as he gets nearby, he can pinpoint the location. Now, he can also confirm that the other party is still alive.

It seems we need to send some people over to guard the point.

“Uncle Fu, arrange for two groups of people, one to go to California, and the other to keep an eye on their street meeting places. Don’t they meet every month?”

"Then let's follow the clues and find out about their club."

"Yes, Master."

Having done all this, Louis, feeling that everything was settled, looked at Uncle Fu and said, "Uncle Fu, remember to take the blood pills I gave you; they're good for your health. I should go back now."

"Yes, young master, don't worry, this old servant will eat it."

After showing some concern, Louis left the Cleaners Company.
