This actor is full of tricks.

[Scene 4: Just as you're about to be sacrificed, investigators from the Investigation Department suddenly appear. A close-quarters battle ensues. Will you be able to leave this room of flesh and blood alive?]

[The script is about to be finalized]

The voices from the storyline made Lin Jue sigh. He had completely strayed from the plot and could only hope to obtain the most basic guaranteed reward.

The battle was largely one-sided, with the cultists unable to do anything to Tie Ning's team, and the number of the strange creatures was decreasing.

Just as the fourth eerie creature died, the red-robed eerie priest finally finished his ritual dance. He transformed into a scarlet phantom, stretched out his ghostly hand, and slapped a member of Tie Ning's team flying away.

Even with the defensive support of the Vajra Talisman, the strange power of a B-level was not something a second-tier player could withstand. The golden membrane on the surface of the team member's body shattered instantly, and he was sent flying backward. When he landed on the ground, he was already dead.

Compared to that group of reckless monsters, Tie Ning's team had much weaker mental fortitude. After seeing their teammates instantly killed, the mental defenses they had painstakingly built up immediately collapsed.

"Don't even think about escaping! Do you really think that headquarters and public opinion will let you off the hook if you escape?!"

"You all focus on dealing with those guys in white robes, I'll handle this red robe!"

Captain Wang realized that his team's morale had collapsed, so he immediately shouted and took out a gleaming silver talisman, swiping it across his rusty sword.

The rusty iron sword suddenly burst forth with a dazzling silver light, and streams of silver sword energy surged forth. It has to be said that although Captain Wang is not a very good person, his abilities are quite impressive. The power that he unleashed in conjunction with the talisman surprised Lin Jue. Even from more than ten meters away, he could feel the sharpness of the sword energy.

Several sword energies slashed past, forcing the strange red-robed figure back. The next moment, he charged towards Captain Wang, his resentment surging like a sea.

"Did you think that by temporarily raising your attack power to the fourth tier through external force, you could contend with your father's followers?"

The resentment surged and spread in all directions. Its fierce aura made Captain Wang's heart pound. The silver sword energy surged and slashed down fiercely.

Two enormous ghostly hands appeared beside the red-robed ghost, their five fingers spread wide, grabbing the falling sword energy and crushing it violently.

Amidst the dazzling silver light scattered across the sky, Captain Wang, holding an iron sword, strode forward, with streaks of silver sword energy swirling around him, instantly elevating his aura.

Even Lin Jue, who had witnessed many extraordinary abilities, had to admit that Captain Wang's ability was indeed a great tool for showing off. After all, which man wouldn't want to become a sword immortal who controls sword energy?

Although the ability looked very dazzling, its attack power was somewhat disappointing. After all, it was only enhanced by that talisman and was still somewhat different from a real fourth-tier power. Even after slashing more than a dozen times, it could not hurt the red-robed monster and could only force it to retreat.

However, this was Captain Wang's purpose. He planned to stall the red-robed ghost for a while so that his teammates could deal with the white-robed ghosts and then help him.

Although the team members are all only at the second tier, with him as the main force, they can slowly wear down this red-robed monster to death.

After crushing the falling silver sword energy for the third time, the red-robed ghost finally understood Captain Wang's plan. During the time he was held back, two more white-robed ghosts became nourishment for the flesh and blood room.

However, he showed no sign of panic, only coldly laughing: "Trying to deal with them first, and then join forces against me?"

"pity."

"Do you know why they're all wearing white robes, while I'm wearing a red one?"

“This is not just a difference in status, because I can also communicate with our father and bestow blessings upon all believers!” As the words fell, eyeballs flew up and landed in front of the shrine. The small door of the shrine opened, and a hand reached out from it, grabbing all the eyeballs inside.

A chilling chewing sound echoed from inside the shrine, and the flesh and blood around the room surged wildly, spewing out large amounts of viscous blood.

The red-robed man spread his hands out strangely, his mouth stretching to the back of his ears, his face full of fanaticism: "My good children, prepare to receive the blessings that your father will bestow upon you!"

"Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!"

Captain Wang's eyelids twitched violently. He didn't know what it meant, but he instinctively sensed danger and hurriedly told his teammates to run away.

But to their surprise, the flesh and blood on the wall continued to grow and extend, completely sealing off the curtain.

"Captain, what do we do?!" All the team members panicked at this moment, as that was the only exit.

On the other side, the viscous blood kept changing shape in the air, forming circles, the same circular symbol that Lin Jue often saw.

Upon witnessing this scene, Captain Wang's unease reached its peak, and he suddenly shouted, "Get out of my way!"

Upon hearing this, the team members hurriedly retreated to the side. One after another, fierce sword energies whistled and landed on the flesh and blood of the wall. However, the wall's sturdiness far exceeded his expectations. The sword energies, which were enough to kill a C-level Li Gui, only left white marks on it. And as the flesh and blood writhed, even the white marks disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Damn it!" Captain Wang's eyes were bloodshot; he felt like he had become the turtle that had fallen into the jar.

The scarlet circular symbols were fully formed, and the white robes of all the cultists were gradually stained with blood. As a result, their resentment increased dramatically, and their strength soared. In a very short time, they all broke through to the C level.

This improvement is definitely only temporary, but it is fatal for Tie Ning's team. C-level is a strange watershed. If we divide it according to the levels in cultivation novels, this level is as strange as a Nascent Soul expert.

Those below the Nascent Soul stage are all ants.

Although the gap isn't that dramatic, the difference in strength between C-level and D-level is still more than double.

The color drained from Captain Wang's face instantly. The situation had reversed at this moment. He had originally wanted his teammates to free up their hands to slowly whittle down the Red-Robed Ghost, but now it seemed that his teammates would die first.

"I don't understand." The red-robed ghost's eyes were full of piety: "You don't understand Father's mercy, so why do you think we are killing people?"

“We let those lonely souls see their closest relatives. Some saw their mothers who died of cancer, some saw their grandmothers who raised them, and today a poor mother saw her child who had been gone for a long time.”

“We simply allowed them to reunite with their loved ones in their father’s arms. Why is that considered murder? Isn’t this a very happy thing for them?”

As the red-robed ghost finished speaking, the white-robed figures began their attack, and the scene spiraled out of control in an instant. The members of Tie Ning's team were filled with despair; this was a war with a vastly unequal disparity in strength.

"Sigh." Hiding in the shadows, Lin Jue sighed, took off his backpack and patted it lightly: "It's your turn to make a move."

Showing off in front of others is a brilliant way to impress, but things have already deviated from the original script, so he has to abandon the idea of ​​impressing and try his best to maintain his persona. He can only reluctantly let the trick in his backpack take action. (End of this chapter)
