Chapter 346 The Burning Demon Knight

The screening room was completely silent.

Only the light from the screen kept flashing on the faces of the audience.

A cacophony of agonizing screams echoed in everyone's ears...

……

This is a breathtaking transformation process!

On screen, Zhou Yang, who plays Johnny, trembles violently, his muscles twitching uncontrollably, as if some terrifying entity is gestating within him.

His body was contorted at an unbelievable angle, and a roar that was somewhere between a howl and a wail burst from his throat...

Suddenly, a strange mist rose from his skin, accompanied by a hissing burning sound.

Countless cracks spread across his body, emanating a blazing red light from within, like lava flowing beneath his skin...

"No, this isn't the contract I signed!"

He fell heavily to his knees, and his desperate roar echoed throughout the screening room, causing countless people to feel heartbroken!
However, before the voice could finish speaking, it suddenly stopped, as if it had been completely manipulated by something!
……

Upon seeing this, Zhang Ying instinctively covered her eyes!
She felt a sense of fear.

but……

But his eyes were secretly fixed on the big screen.

On screen, the horror of transformation continues.

She stared intently at the screen!

In the footage, Zhou Yang's pupils dilate continuously as the camera slowly zooms in until his eye sockets fill the entire field of vision.

Suddenly, flames erupted and engulfed the entire screen!
The intense flames made her scalp tingle, and she almost suffocated...

The camera slowly pulls back, and the image refocuses.

Two raging flames suddenly ignited deep within Zhou Yang's eyes!

Then, flames coiled around his neck like venomous snakes, charring flesh and tearing skin in their wake until his entire body was completely engulfed by the raging flames...

The painful screams in my ears gradually distorted and changed, eventually turning into a series of eerie and terrifying laughs.

The chilling laughter made Zhang Ying unconsciously clench her fists, but her gaze remained fixed on the screen, unable to look away.

It seemed that this person possessed a strange charm that drew her gaze!

seem……

It's not that scary anymore!

The sounds of painful struggle grew fainter and fainter until they disappeared completely.

Ultimately, it was replaced by a chilling, inhuman growl.

She saw on the screen that flames completely engulfed his head, the charred skull piercing through the remaining skin of his face, and raging fire burning wildly above his head...

The camera suddenly zoomed in, giving Zhou Yang a very imposing close-up.

The man who was once Johnny Blaze slowly straightened up, his empty eye sockets burning with hellfire scanning the entire scene.

Suddenly, he raised his charred hand bones and pointed them directly at one of the trembling thugs—

"You are guilty!"

A hoarse voice, carrying the scent of fire, exploded in the deathly silence of the scene.

……

The air in the screening room suddenly froze.

On the screen, the demon knight, engulfed in hellfire, slowly raises his head, his empty eye sockets piercing the lens.

When its finger suddenly pointed towards the audience!

The entire theater fell into a deathly silence.

until!

The first heart-wrenching scream shattered the terrifying silence.

"what!"

A girl suddenly covered her mouth, but still couldn't help but scream!
Immediately afterwards, gasps and screams erupted like waves in the theater.

As Liu Jiasheng watched with great enthusiasm, he felt his wife Zhang Ying's fingernails digging deeply into his palm, causing him to wince in pain. However, her gaze seemed fixed on the screen, unable to look away.

Finally, he shook his head helplessly, took a deep breath, and continued to stare at the screen!

This movie!

seem……

This is unlike any other film produced by [Xuan Shi Entertainment]!
On the screen, the Demon Knight suddenly swung the burning chains, and the motorcycle engine roared deafeningly!

Hellfire coiled around the car body like venomous snakes, and wherever the tires passed, the asphalt instantly melted into crimson lava.

The camera follows the motorcycle as it performs a somersault, tracing a perfect 360-degree arc across the night sky.

The flames trailing behind the hellfire burned fiercely, hooking one figure after another, as if to set the entire screening room ablaze.

The sins of everyone who is gazed upon by the demon knight are clearly revealed in the flames.

In the end, all sins were completely consumed by the endless hellfire.
……

"This special effect"

Liu Jiasheng's Adam's apple trembled involuntarily.

On the screen, the intense visual impact of the transformation scene sent a jolt through his body like an electric current, even making his fingertips tingle slightly.

Even someone who has seen countless films was completely awestruck by this unprecedented visual feast.

The flickering flames were so realistic they were almost frightening; when a cluster of sparks suddenly burst out of the frame, he even reflexively wanted to dodge to the side.

Domestic special effects!

It doesn't seem bad at all!
He instinctively looked around!

Just at this time……

Several boys in the front row jumped up in excitement, one of them waving his fist and shouting, "That's fucking cool!"

Many girls covered their faces, but couldn't help peeking through their fingers. When the fiery skull suddenly approached the camera, they screamed and fell back into their seats.

The middle-aged man sitting next to me was constantly wiping the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief.

Everyone was filled with fear, yet they couldn't suppress their intense curiosity and the visual impact of the film!

Liu Jiasheng gradually became immersed in the unique visual language of this film!
The suspenseful atmosphere spread like a fog, the eerie images left their mark on his retina, and the thrilling scenes repeatedly assaulted his nerves.

The film's visual worldview unfolds gradually through layers of progressively deeper sensory experiences.
At the boundary between light and darkness, the war between heaven and hell has raged for millennia.

The angelic legions protect humanity's faith and order, while the demons of hell constantly tempt souls into darkness.

To break the deadlock, Mephisto, the lord of hell, created the "Ghostbusters"—who made pacts with sinners, granting them the power of hellfire and making them messengers who reap souls.

However, if the chosen host harbors good intentions, they may break free from control and judge evil with flames, becoming "spirits of vengeance" that roam between the two realms. Riding burning mounts and wielding chains, they devour the souls of sinners, serving as both weapons of hell and potentially the last line of defense for humanity.

This war between redemption and curse will finally come to an end on Judgment Day...

This is clearly a very old-fashioned "devil's contract" story!
The protagonist sells his soul to save his beloved, and ultimately struggles painfully between revenge and redemption.

Zhou Yang's performance, however, infused this clichéd framework with a chilling epic feel!

On the screen, the solemn church bells suddenly rang out—

Accompanied by the distant tolling of bells,
He saw the battle between Heaven and Hell, which had been ongoing since the beginning of creation, unfolding before his eyes.

He saw the hellfire transform into thousands of iron cavalry, galloping and roaring in the blood and fire of the eternal battlefield!
He also witnessed humans being constantly consumed by flames in this battle...

……

then!

The scene suddenly changes!

Mephisto appeared with a sinister grin, his chilling voice echoing in the darkness: "It's time to fulfill your contract."

With this sound, the plot instantly reached its climax!

The Blackheart Demon is secretly plotting a betrayal, attempting to use Johnny's Demon Knight power to overthrow the rule of Hell!

……

On screen, the protagonist, who transforms into a "demon policeman," is frantically hunting down the Blackheart Demon!
In this chase!
Liu Jiasheng felt goosebumps rise on his skin!
He saw the domestically produced Lingjiang motorcycle streak a dazzling trail of fire in the night, each drift sending sparks flying, and each leap made Liu Jiasheng hold his breath.

The roar of the engine seemed to pierce through the screen, making his feet go numb.

He saw the flaming skeleton knight ride his motorcycle toward the skyscraper, and the moment the tires rolled over the glass curtain wall, it shot straight into the sky at an almost vertical angle!
In slow motion, countless shards of glass scatter and fly like a rain of crystals—so realistic, so thrilling…

He saw burning chains tear through the night sky, dragging the hovering helicopter down from mid-air;
Seeing the twisted steel emitting a piercing scream, bent under the weight...

I saw the luxury car explode and crash into a shop on the street, smashing everything to pieces...

I saw flames burning on the earth, the earth cracking layer by layer...

These incredibly realistic frames sent shivers down the spines of the entire audience in the screening room.

This completely stunned Liu Jiasheng!

He stared intently at the screen, not daring to blink, his breathing becoming rapid involuntarily.

He never dreamed of this!
This is the first movie from [Xuan Shi Entertainment] in three years that he would rather hold his pee than miss a single second!

He subconsciously looked around, the light from the screen dancing on the faces of the audience.

Everyone held their breath as the breathtaking scenes of money burning through the theater were accompanied by screams that nearly lifted the roof off the theater!
this moment!
The entire theater seemed to be ignited by the flames on the screen, and a wave of boiling heat rushed towards us!

……

On screen, the plot continues to unfold—

The clichéd kidnapping scenario plays out once again: the ruthless villain takes the protagonist's last remaining family member hostage.

In a daze, Johnny rode his motorcycle toward the cemetery, the church dilapidated and gloomy in the downpour.

As Johnny stumbled in, Gravedigger Carter Slade emerged from the shadows, the yellowed parchment in his hand gleaming blood-red in the lightning.

"You think you can save her just by getting the contract?" Sorey's sneer mingled with thunder. "Mephisto's contract only charges interest. For every soul judged, the hellfire devours a little more of your humanity!"

In the movie, Johnny reaches out to grab it, but Shrew offers him the contract, letting him make his own choice...

Liu Jiasheng held his breath, piecing together the shocking truth through the characters' dialogue: this weathered gravedigger was actually the first Ghost Rider who betrayed Mephisto!

For years he lived in anonymity to uphold the contract, just to prevent more people from becoming victims of evil.

In front of the torrential rain-soaked screen, Liu Jiasheng's breath hitched again!
On the screen!
As lightning ripped through the night sky, Sorey's cloak billowed violently in the gale.

His hands, covered in age spots, slowly caressed the rusty chain around his waist, and his hunched body suddenly straightened like a drawn sword!
Liu Jiasheng gripped the handrail tightly!

On the screen.

As the torrential rain poured down, the moment Gravekeeper Sorey slowly lifted his cloak—

The face, covered in burn scars, flickered in and out of focus in the lightning, and the dry skin cracked inch by inch with the crackling sound of bones twisting.

A deep blue hellfire erupted from the crack, completely engulfing the gravedigger!
Liu Jiasheng stared wide-eyed as the burning figure walked step by step toward the thin old horse.

The instant Slay's flaming hand touched the horse's neck—

Crimson flames instantly engulfed the horse's mane!
The moment the horn of hell sounded through the blood-red rain, Liu Jiasheng's pupils suddenly contracted!

"boom--!"

Two balls of hellfire exploded and ignited simultaneously in the torrential rain.

Johnny's motorcycle and Shrew's warhorse underwent a transformation in the flames, and the burning chains and the sound of hooves tore apart the silence of the entire cemetery.

The camera suddenly zooms in, giving this epic charge a stunning close-up!
Skeleton knights and warhorse riders race side by side in the torrential rain, as hellfire dyes the entire screen a blinding blood red.

Liu Jiasheng felt as if his retina was being burned—

This is absolutely the most stunning transformation scene in film history!
……

this moment!
The moment the hellfire illuminated the stands!

The entire screening room erupted in cheers!
The boys in the front row clenched their fists until they turned white, while the girls in the back row grabbed their companions' arms and screamed until their voices cracked.

this moment!
seem!

Everyone became the most fanatical follower of the Demon Knight!
"That's fucking handsome!"

"My grass!"

"Damn! Awesome!"

"Wow, awesome!"

"..."
