The sound of powerful footsteps echoed in the corridor. Several officials from Hell Castle had to use all their strength to keep up with the tall figure in front of them.
That was Shi Longtu, the general of Hell Castle, the right-hand man of the city lord Luo Wu, and the second most powerful person in the castle.
Shi Longtu is no longer young, but having broken through to the Heavenly Stage, he still keeps his body in golden condition, which makes him look like a middle-aged man in his early forties. His hair is jet-black and stands on end, and a beard on his chin makes him look more masculine.
"General Shi, wouldn't it be inappropriate to go to the city lord now?"
"The city lord ordered that he needs to think about some issues during this period of time, and we should not disturb him."
Several officials behind him smiled bitterly and advised him that ever since Luo Wu suddenly ordered the closure of the forward base some time ago, the general who was on a mission outside had rushed back immediately after hearing about it, and was now on his way to meet the city lord Luo Wu.
Hearing what the officials behind him said, Shi Longtu suddenly stopped, causing an official to crash into him, as if he had hit a mountain. Shi Longtu stood still, but the official sat down on the ground.
Shi Longtu turned around and glared at the officials: "You fools! The forward base was established to protect the Krav Gate from threats. How can it be closed!"
"When the city lord had this plan, you should have stopped him. Now I want to ask the city lord for clarification, and you want to stop me?"
After he finished speaking, the communicator hanging on Shi Longtu's waist rang. He picked it up and heard the voice of his subordinates: "General, we have arrived at the Kraf Gate, but the city lord has ordered that no one is allowed to enter."
Shi Longtu said in a deep voice: "You guys rush in, whoever dares to stop us, break his legs!"
"The most urgent task now is to restart the forward base. We can deal with other things later. I, Shi Longtu, will shoulder all the responsibilities alone."
"yes."
After hearing Shi Longtu's conversation, the fortress officials turned pale with fear: "General Shi, you are going to rebel."
"Hurry and get your people back."
Shi Longtu glared at them fiercely, and then continued to move forward. A moment later, he had arrived in front of the residence of the city lord Luo Wu. Before Shi Longtu stepped forward, several guards tried to stop him. Shi Longtu waved his hand, and the guards flew out, hit the wall, and fell so hard that they saw stars.
Arriving at the door, Shi Longtu shouted, "Lord Luo Wu, I, Shi Longtu, want to see you for something!"
His voice was extremely penetrating. Not only could it be heard in the room, but it could also be heard from far away. The fortress officials behind him had their ears buzzing from his shouting, and he didn't stop for a long time.
After a while, Luo Wu's voice was heard in the room: "Shi Longtu, if you have anything to say, just talk outside."
Shi Longtu frowned and took a step forward: "Lord Luo Wu, why do you want to close the forward base?"
The room was silent for a few seconds before Luo Wu's voice rang out: "That has nothing to do with you."
Shi Longtu's eyes flashed with anger: "Lord Luo Wu, I assisted the previous city lord. When the old city lord abdicated, he told me to take care of you and remind you from time to time. Over the years, I have never dared to forget the old city lord's words."
"You haven't let down the old city lord or the rest of us. But this time, I really can't understand why you want to close the forward base."
"Lord Luo Wu, please open the door and let me see you."
There was a gasp in the room, followed by Luo Wu's panicked shout: "Shi Longtu, hurry up,
Take my daughter away!"
The tone of the voice suddenly changed, and it was completely different from the previous one. Coupled with the content of the words, it made people wonder whether Luo Wu was being held hostage.
The fortress officials looked at each other, their faces pale, at a loss. Then they saw Shi Longtu suddenly burst out, and the star essence quickly turned into fighting spirit. In an instant, the general was covered with a set of fighting spirit armor that covered his entire body.
"General Shi, what are you going to do?"
"General Shi, please wait a moment..."
Before the officials could finish their words, Shi Longtu had already roared and torn the automatic door off the wall like paper.
when!
The deformed door fell to the ground, and it was pitch black inside the door. However, a blood-red liquid flowed out of the door, overflowing the steps and flowing into the passage.
"this... "
Several officials were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they retreated one after another.
Shi Longtu's eyes were wide open. As an experienced person, he could roughly guess what the situation was inside from the smell of blood coming out of the room.
“Lord Luo Wu, what have you done…” Shi Longtu was shocked and angry. He released the star energy, causing silver flames to rise around him. The general took big strides and walked into the house.
There is a porch at the entrance of the house. Under the illumination of the silver flame, one can see blood plasma surging on the ground, with scalp, hair, eyeballs, fingers and human internal organs floating on it.
For a moment, Shi Longtu thought he had walked into a slaughterhouse.
No, even the slaughterhouse is not as scary and bloody as here!
Behind the entrance, Shi Longtu saw another mutilated body. It was a guard. It was obvious that he was trying desperately to escape, and his nails were embedded in the steps.
Unfortunately, he failed in the end. His back was roughly opened and a spine was pulled out and thrown aside.
When Shi Longtu looked into the room, his eyes were sore from the stimulation of the bright colors all over the room. This small room represented the meaning of hell.
Luo Wu stood in the middle of this hell, holding his beloved sword in one hand, and sighed with his back to Shi Longtu, "Didn't I tell you not to come in?"
"How dare you disobey the order of the city lord, you are so bold, Shi Longtu..." Luo Wu turned his head with a tilted head, and a crazy smile flashed in his eyes covered with red spiral patterns.
"Lord Luo Wu, you..."
A terrible thought suddenly flashed through Shi Longtu's mind: "You have been parasitized? Have you come into contact with the ancient will? Have you become a shell?!"
"Quack!" Luo Wu suddenly turned around, let out a sharp laugh, flashed in front of Shi Longtu, and swept his sword upwards from below.
Shi Longtu had no weapon with him, so he could only block with his arms crossed.
The long sword swept across his fighting spirit arm armor, and with a sound, Shi Longtu's burly figure flew backwards, crashed into the entrance, and fell to the ground.
The communicator on his waist shook and fell into the blood.
The officials outside were startled by the scene inside, and then they heard Shi Longtu yelling, "Quick, sound the alarm, the city lord has been parasitized!"
"I'll try to neutralize him, but evacuate!"
After saying that, Shi Longtu roared, and his star energy burst out. He rushed in, grabbed Luo Wu's shoulders with both hands, and pushed him forward fiercely.
Bang bang bang!
The general pushed Luo Wu and blew up several rooms in a row, pushing the danger away from the fortress officials.
Just then they reacted and crawled in the opposite direction. A moment later, the alarm sounded in the fortress.
At this moment, in the corner of the entrance, the communicator that Shi Longtu had dropped just now rang: "General, General!"
"Oh no!"
"It's 'Devils', hordes of demons, they have occupied the forward base, and we are trying to prevent them from approaching the Clave Gate."
"But we can't hold on for long. Support, we need support!"
In addition to the cries for help, there were many noisy sounds on the communicator, the most common of which was the roar of the black people.
Unfortunately, Shi Longtu couldn’t hear anything now.
... ... .
In the laboratory, Lu Ye was operating a robotic arm to carefully place some fungal specimens into a container. Suddenly, a shrill alarm sounded, followed by a flashing red light, reminding people to evacuate quickly.
"What's going on?" Lu Ye, who had been in the lab for almost a week, had a beard all over his chin and even dark eye sockets. He raised his head and looked around, then shouted, "Ask what's going on outside, did someone accidentally trigger the alarm?"
When the female assistant was about to ask, the door of the laboratory opened and a team of guards wearing black and red armor walked in. The captain in the lead said in a deep voice: "Mr. Lu Ye, please follow us immediately. We need to evacuate this place."
Lu Ye was stunned: "Evacuate? What happened?"
"I can't leave. The experiment has reached a critical stage. Besides, it's too late to back up and transfer the specimens and data now."
The captain stepped forward forcefully and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Lu Ye. You are a first-level protected target in the fortress. Your life safety is above all else. I must take you away immediately."
"Take Mr. Lu away!"
The captain captured Lu Ye, handed him over to several guards, and then evacuated quickly.
Lu Ye shouted anxiously: "Give me five minutes, no, two minutes."
"Stop, you..."
When he came out of the laboratory, he found that the passage was full of people. The soldiers of Hell Fortress were directing the evacuation of personnel. It seemed that a serious disaster had occurred in the fortress.
At this time, Lu Ye recognized an official in the crowd. He was also protected by guards. Lu Ye quickly stepped forward and shouted, "Mr. Yue Song, wait for me, what happened?"
The official named Yue Song saw that it was Lu Ye, and whispered as he walked away: "Something big has happened. I heard that General Shi Longtu went to see the city lord."
Lu Ye, who had been staying in the laboratory, didn't know about the Forward Base, so he couldn't help but ask, "What do you want to see the city lord for?"
Yue Song shook his head: "The key is not this, the important thing is, I heard that the city lord was parasitized and became the skin of some ancient will!"
After arriving at Hell Castle, Lu Ye had learned about the information about the alien god and the skin bag from many channels. When he heard this, his scalp tingled: "How could it be?"
Yue Song sighed and said, "The first war between alien gods started here. I didn't expect that after so many years, someone would be parasitized again. It's like being cursed."
Suddenly, there was a faint sound of explosion from the rear, and then the soldiers received some unknown notice and urged people to speed up.
At the transfer platform, at the Clave Gate, some soldiers were firing into the gate. In the flying lines of fire, a head covered with horns and spewing flames poked out from the Clave Gate...
