"Don't come over here...don't come over here!!"

"Quick! Quickly inform everyone in the village that a madman has attacked the sacrificial site!"

"I'm going to fight you! Aaaaah!"

"God, please stop that madman! We will definitely offer you more sacrifices—Ahhh!"

205. The mysterious village

Deep underground in a dense forest, the bright room was filled with the smell of disinfectant and a faint scent of blood.

"Sir! Something terrible has happened! The sacrificial ground outside has been attacked!"

A guard stumbled in, his face pale and his voice trembling with fear.

"What? Who did it?"

The old man's voice was low and carried a hint of foreboding.

"I don't know... I only saw one attacker, but... it was a monster!"

The guard was almost incoherent, his eyes filled with terror, "Everyone outside... is almost dead! That monster is too fast...!"

"—!"

The old man's expression froze, hesitation and solemnity intertwined on his wrinkled face.

He suddenly remembered something and rushed to the next room.

Several flashing surveillance screens were embedded in the walls there, and the cold images mercilessly reflected the tragic situation in the sacrificial site.

On the screen, the sacrificial site has turned into a hell on earth.

Broken limbs and arms were scattered all over the ground, and the victims who had been cut into human sticks were like wriggling worms, struggling in the blood and emitting inhuman wails.

The flickering light of the torches illuminated the distorted killing field, which was horrifying.

"Quick! Go block the door!"

The old man was horrified and roared hoarsely at his men beside him, with cold sweat on his forehead.

"Also! Quickly notify those useless people in the village to come and help!"

"No, no, we can't contact the outside world!"

"!?"

At the same time, at the sacrificial site—

No one could stand anymore.

Broken stone pillars, fallen torches, shattered bones and flesh and blood intertwined to form a doomsday picture.

Lingyi stood alone in the center of the field, her skirt and hair stained with bright red blood, which shone with a strange luster in the dim firelight.

Her expression was as cold as ice, and her eyes calmly swept across the hellish scene around her, as if the bloody massacre was just an insignificant matter.

The smell of death in the air formed a strange contrast with her presence, as if she was the master of this purgatory, above all pain and despair.

Some people who were not physically fit enough died soon after being cut into human sticks. The wails of those who were still alive and struggling in pain began to gradually weaken.

The people here will all die soon, but their suffering will not end.

After physical death, the disembodied soul is absorbed into a lesser hell, where they await further torment.

"What did you...do?"

It was a man's voice that suddenly rang out on the court.

Confusion quickly turned into suppressed anger. The sound of chains breaking was heard, and then a flaming fist smashed towards Lingyi.

However, before the fist got close to Lingyi, a magical light appeared around Lingyi, and a transparent barrier blocked the man's fist.

"What have you done?"

Lingyi turned around and looked into the angry eyes behind the mask.

"It's just killing a bunch of pests that are harming humanity. What's the problem? As a victim of their persecution, do you still want to help these people?"

"..."

The anger in the masked man's eyes gradually subsided.

Lingyi's words show her position and attitude. She is obviously not a madman who is doing evil, but is fighting against the madman who is doing evil.

The masked man was tied here voluntarily, but he was not in the same group with these people.

"Looking at you, you don't seem to need help from others. Why did you volunteer to be tied up and bled? Is it a fetish?"

"...Humph, I just don't care about this crap."

The masked man snorted in dissatisfaction.

"It's up to you. I'm going to deal with the remaining pests next. If you don't want to deal with these garbage, just stay here and rest, or leave."

"After tonight, this nest of venomous malice will cease to exist."

"......"

The masked man was silent for a while, then walked aside silently.

He walked towards the stone pillar where he was previously tied and sat down beneath it.

Lingyi had no idea why Qianjie, who could kill an early Herrscher in seconds, was willing to be tied to a stone pillar and bled by a group of weak villagers.

The plot of the game doesn't seem to mention this reason.

But it doesn’t matter, as long as Qianjie doesn’t hinder her from killing insects.

Lingyi glanced at Qianjie, who was unusually silent, then picked up his sword and walked towards a certain direction of the sacrificial site.

She had long sensed that there were some human life reactions hidden underground over there.

This group of villagers are like rats. It is a small village with basements everywhere.

Dense sword lights burst out in an instant, and the heavy iron door hidden under the dense forest shattered. Various obstacles blocking the door, along with the door, turned into debris and scattered in the cold air.

"Ahhh! Run! That monster is coming!"

A guard who was carrying obstacles saw the gate destroyed and was horrified. His face was distorted as if he had seen a demon from hell.

He turned around and tried to flee, his steps hurried. Before he had taken a few steps, Ling Yi's sword flashed past like a shadow.

"laugh--"

The knife flashed across his legs precisely, and blood spurted out.

His feet remained in place, but his thigh had already thrown forward, and the broken part hit the ground heavily, splashing a scarlet color.

The guard's screams tore through the air, and he collapsed in a pool of blood.

Lingyi had an expressionless face as he stepped on the blood accumulated on the ground and walked calmly deeper into the underground.

The surrounding lights became unstable under the invasion of the water jet. The girl's figure was looming in the flickering light, and the blood dripping from the blade left mottled marks on the ground.

Along the way, whenever she caught a glimpse of a figure, she would swing her knife and cut off its hands and feet, her movements cleanly and without mercy.

When she encountered a closed door, she would chop down the door or wall, sending wood chips and metal fragments flying everywhere, revealing terrified faces in the room.

Before these faces could react, she chopped them into human sticks. The wailing sounds rose and fell, forming a symphony of hell.

This basement seems to be a research laboratory, but it is not very big inside and there are not many people in the facility.

Lingyi's killing was as swift and ruthless as the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. In just a moment, he had crossed the corridor and reached the deepest hidden laboratory.

"Wait, wait a minute! Are you from GTI? Or from Hafk?"

The old man who was hiding inside with no way to escape was protecting a girl in a research coat. When he saw Lingyi's figure, he immediately spoke hurriedly.

"It's okay, it doesn't matter. Don't kill me. I'm willing to hand over all my research data to you. My genius brain can also serve you... Don't, don't kill us!"

Lingyi didn't take action immediately, not because he wanted to listen to this pest talking nonsense.

But after entering, her attention was immediately attracted by the laboratory environment.

Human bodies stitched together with Honkai beasts and animal tissue, dead babies immersed in liquid containing Honkai energy, human bodies dissected, their chests, brains, and abdomens opened...

206. The old man who doesn't know what he is talking about

This was indeed a laboratory, and Lingyi could tell at a glance that the equipment was extraordinary—the sophisticated instruments glowed with a cold metallic luster under the light, and the walls made of special materials were out of place in this old village.

However, what is being done here is far from rigorous scientific research.

Even the most cruel and inhumane experiments will at least follow some twisted logic and procedures.

Everything before us is more like the lair of a crazy alchemist, who puts all the absurd fantasies in his mind into practice without any bottom line by relying on the resources and power in his hands.

There is only one rule here - do whatever you want.

There is a sense of a distorted combination of the Middle Ages and the modern era.

"..."

Lingyi ignored the meaningless old thing, and the fire in his hand suddenly erupted, and he pounced on the experimental equipment like an angry dragon.

The flames raged and spread under her control, greedily devouring everything, even non-flammable things.

In a blink of an eye, the entire laboratory was dyed a hellish red. Only the small area where Ling Yi and others were located survived in the sea of ​​fire like an isolated island.

The old man watched his hard work turn to ashes and let out a heart-wrenching wail.

"No! Stop it! Stop it! You lunatic!"

The sound was as shrill as the howling of a ghost, and it was particularly creepy in the firelight.

"These are all precious experimental data! They are the fruits of my life's research! They are the key to promoting human evolution! How dare you - how dare you destroy them!"

The next moment, the old man who was still afraid of death and begged for forgiveness at the first opportunity, actually rushed directly towards Lingyi.

He even completely ignored how Lingyi suddenly set the surroundings on fire.

"Research results? Experimental data?"

Lingyi dodged sideways with ease, leaving the old man empty-handed and falling heavily to the ground.

After the full-strength attack, he even knocked out one of his front teeth, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

However, he had no time to care about the pain - because at the moment when Lingyi brushed past him, her flash blade had already gently cut through the air.

The two severed hands fell not far from the old man.

Severe pain came from the broken wrist, but the old man still ignored it because Lingyi's indifferent voice immediately reached his ears.

"All I saw was a clueless idiot and a bunch of worthless garbage."

“Rubbish?!”

The old man's eyes widened and his voice trembled with shock.

"Yeah, garbage."

Ling Yi repeated it, and at the same time swung his sword to cut off the legs of the girl who had been hiding behind the old man and was now frozen in fear.

What is the relationship between the other party and this old man?

I don’t know, and I don’t need to know.

It doesn't matter what the relationship is, it's just a pest anyway.

The girl fell to the ground and was awakened by the severe pain.

She burst into tears instantly and began to beg for mercy in fear and despair.

And what Ling Yi did was - the knife flashed, the girl's voice stopped abruptly, and the head with its mouth still open rolled to the ground.

Blood splattered everywhere, from the initial gushing out to only a few blood vessels spurting out thin lines of blood.

Then, the headless body fell to the bottom.

“It’s worthless.”

Lingyi's cold gaze fell on the old man.

"Shut up, what do you know? You're nothing but a monster! A madman—"
