Chapter 120: Ruby Gem Town
Chapter 120: Ruby Gem Town
"Joseph, be careful, ah~" A scream echoed as the woman realized that the figure behind her was not her husband but a terrifying alien, and her husband had already become a headless corpse, pierced by the alien's tail. The fear was overwhelming.
But the next moment, the scream abruptly stopped.
This thread of fear dissipated and was absorbed into the seal of the hell entrance, like the last straw that broke the camel's back. The entire church collapsed in an instant.
A dark, massive hole emitted a chilling wind, revealing its true form.
The first evil spirit crawled out of the hole, its face twisted with malice, ready to attack.
But the next moment, an alien covered in evil markings used its tail to bind the neck of the evil spirit, suspending it in mid-air.
This act was like a battle cry, and one by one, the hideous aliens surged into Ackerman Town, surrounding the hell entrance like a tidal wave.
The legion of evil spirits from hell also rushed out, as if trying to break free from the constraints of hell.
The two sides clashed, forming a terrifying battlefield.
Qin Muye watched this scene from afar through a telescope, marveling, "How did they even build a church over such a big hole?"
"With this kind of construction, wouldn't it be better to use it as a load-bearing structure rather than a seal?"
What? Not paying attention to the load-bearing capacity of the seal but watching the battle between the aliens and evil spirits? What's the point of that? It's just limbs flying and blood splattering. Why watch such violent scenes? He's not some pervert who enjoys that kind of thing.
"When are you going to make your move?" the preacher asked.
"No rush. This is just the beginning. The main players haven't even shown up yet. Why be in such a hurry?" Qin Muye said nonchalantly.
So far, neither Lawrence nor the Alien Witch had appeared. Even if they were to be blown up, it would only be some minor soldiers, which wouldn't be very useful.
"Master, all the aliens have emerged, and the underground cavern has been cleared out," a Gospel Gnome reported, having gathered intelligence from other gnomes.
"What about Lawrence?" Qin Muye asked.
"He is preparing to come out. It seems he is waiting for the Alien Queen to free herself from the spawning device. He has transformed himself into a demon and joined hell, confirming the rumors," the Gospel Gnome said.
"Once he leaves, have the Apocalypse arrange for ten skeleton soldiers to go in and eliminate any remnants, to avoid any lingering issues," Qin Muye said. He either does no bad deeds and remains a good person, or he does them thoroughly to avoid any future headaches.
So, it's not just the underground cavern; even if he encounters an underground river, he will use the Crimson Infestation to ensure no one can leave any traps for him.
One must be cautious in such matters.
This time, Qin Muye had summoned a hundred skeleton soldiers, each holding a Crimson Infestation, waiting for the Apocalypse to arrange for them to detonate.
After all, these things have no real value, and their deaths are inconsequential. With the Necromancy of Evil Speech, it's not difficult to summon more. They are always used for labor.
In the future, when he has the money and time, he will give the skeleton soldiers alloy skeletons and some machinery, making them more efficient.
For now, the skeleton soldiers will double as suicide trucks.
"Master, the coordinates for the transdimensional teleportation channel have been adjusted. We can deploy the Crimson Infestation at any time," the Apocalypse said, respectfully.
This kind of small task is definitely something the Apocalypse can handle. After all, this time it's a hundred coordinates, not just one. After Qin Muye calculated everything, he had the Apocalypse operate it. With his ordinary human reaction speed, even with the boost from high knowledge attributes, he couldn't manage it. So, he left it to the Apocalypse.
The Apocalypse has many tentacles, making it perfect for multitasking.
"Good. Once Lawrence and the Alien Witch enter the town, keep two specifically for them. The rest, cover the entire area around Ackerman Town and inside hell, to show them what love and peace mean."
Qin Muye said this with a sigh: 'In the end, I still have to use the Crimson Infestation to cleanse the area. What a mess. I wanted to take it slowly.'
He felt that ever since he had this 'sword,' whenever he couldn't win, he just wanted to blow them up and constantly update the 'sword's' power to make the explosions more satisfying.
‘This is not good, I should cherish peace! Next time, I should think carefully before using the explosives.’
‘Yeah, I will definitely do that next time.’
Soon, a massive Alien Queen moved forward at a speed beyond human reaction. Directly above her, a demon with bat wings and a body engulfed in flames followed closely.
“A hell demon? The style seems different from the evil spirits in this hell.” Qin Muye noticed that the evil spirits in this hell had physical bodies, not just spirits, similar to the Pumpkin Head Evil Spirits. However, their style was easily recognizable, all being of the serial killer type, which is why this area was known for producing such killers.
But the hell demon was different; it was definitely an outsider.
It was only then that Qin Muye realized the possibility that Lawrence might not have joined this hell, but another one, and that the other side had intentionally opened this hell for some ulterior motive.
“Book of Death? I understand now. This old guy isn't joining this hell; he's planning to get the Book of Death.” Qin Muye finally understood Lawrence's true intentions. With such a different style, it was impossible for them to coexist naturally.
“What! We absolutely can't let him succeed. If the Book of Death, the ruler of this hell, leaves hell, the disaster will be far more terrifying than these insect demons.” The preacher hurriedly said, but his calm tone made his anxious words sound a bit awkward.
“Don't worry. I have a hundred Crimson Infestations here, guaranteed to turn everything inside and out, top to bottom, into rubies.” Qin Muye reassured him.
The two of them quickly entered the town and headed toward the hell entrance.
“Master, the time has come. Should we prepare to act?” the Apocalypse asked.
“Let's go. Mr. Preacher, come and see my specially prepared ruby feast.” Qin Muye said with a light laugh.
Under the control of the Apocalypse, the transdimensional teleportation channel swallowed one skeleton soldier after another, each holding an activated Crimson Infestation, and then they disappeared into the predetermined areas.
When Lawrence and Sonia saw the sudden appearance of the skeleton soldiers, their hearts sank. Especially when they felt the crimson crystals in the soldiers' hands emitting a trembling wave that made them shudder.
But before they could react, crimson light erupted, and countless crimson elements surged from the crystals.
The hellish power in the air instantly decayed and was assimilated into a large amount of crimson elements.
Everything that came into contact with the crimson elements, whether evil spirits or aliens, even plants and buildings, crystallized and turned into ruby-like crystal statues.
This wasn't just happening in Ackerman Town; twenty-five Crimson Infestations were also launched into hell. After the explosions, the entire hell entrance was covered in crimson crystals, and the inside of hell was no better, having been largely destroyed.
As for Lawrence and Sonia, the hell demon and the Alien Witch, they naturally became crimson crystal statues. Qin Muye had given them special attention.
Each of them had a Crimson Infestation thrown directly at their faces, leaving them no time to run and forcing them to experience VIP-level central explosion service.
The Crimson Infestation didn't have the destructive power of a nuclear bomb; it mainly caused large-scale crystallization and a crimson disease in living beings. It was like a breeze, causing no damage but only eroding and assimilating the entities with crimson elements.
Thus, in this moment, the entire Ackerman Town looked like a town made of priceless rubies. If someone discovered it, the value of rubies would likely plummet.
The preacher watched this scene, silent for a long time. He hadn't expected the other party to really succeed.
“Mr. Preacher, wait here for a moment. I want to go to hell and check if the Book of Death is dead. If it's not, I'll finish it off. You don't need to come; with your small build, you'll become a ruby statue as soon as you enter.”
So, he naturally had to go to hell to check the situation. For example, whether the Book of Death could survive his Crimson Infestation, and if it did, he would gain a significant advantage.
After all, it was the ruler of hell; it couldn't be that weak.
If he waited to return and something else got there first, he would lose out significantly.
