Chapter 775: Tracing the Origin
The angel disappeared, and the other guards did not dare to stay here, and they scrambled to escape from the underground palace.
But how could Bai Qi let them go? He gave Beta a look, and Beta immediately understood. With just a wolf howl, the guards ran back uncontrollably.
"Beta, tell me everything they know. The method... is up to you."
A dangerous smile appeared on Bai Qi's face, and Beta's eyes suddenly lit up after hearing Bai Qi's words. He summoned the Heroic Spirit of Prison, carried the guards and walked towards the next room.
Ahhhh!
(Leave it to me. I will definitely find out everything about them wetting their pants!)
Beta was full of confidence and Bai Qi was not worried at all. No one could hide their memories in front of Liudao.
After watching Beta leave, Bai Qi turned around and looked at the townspeople.
Because of Bai Qi, the hope that had just risen in their hearts was shattered again, and their expressions became even more gloomy.
Seeing this, Bai Qi also showed a hint of apology on his face.
Maybe he did save them, but the hope that had finally emerged was shattered, which was a blow to them no less than death in the mouth of a ferocious beast.
After all, without power, death is still waiting for them.
"I know what you're thinking, but you've also seen that the ultimate result of mastering that kind of power is turning into a ferocious beast."
Bai Qi brewed his emotions for a moment, and said loudly: "Remember those ferocious beasts that attacked you? Although it is a little unbelievable, they were once human beings."
As he spoke, Bai Qi summoned Cordyceps, projected all the previous scenes, and added soul vision.
"How is it possible..."
The residents of the town were filled with disbelief, but the fact that the man had just transformed into a beast in front of them was an indisputable fact.
"To begin with, how can we believe that this isn't another scam?"
At this moment, a resident stood up and said, "You are a beastmaster, right? Then you definitely don't understand the pain of having no power and being at the mercy of others."
"Perhaps the power obtained through this method has problems, but at least it can give us strength and allow us to survive in front of the ferocious beasts! Even if..."
"Even if I become a ferocious beast without reason, it's better than being eaten as food!"
After hearing these words, the townspeople who were originally a little hesitant suddenly became determined, and the look in their eyes when they looked at Bai Qi also changed.
That is, hostility.
"Sure enough, in this age of closed information, it is really difficult to communicate well."
Bai Qi sighed helplessly upon seeing this, and suddenly opened his eyes, a terrifying pressure emanating from him.
"I never intended for you to believe me. I saved you simply because I was annoyed with the birdman just now. As for whether you believe me or not, it's up to me."
"Bai Qi..."
Hearing Bai Qi's words, Bai Qiucha was stunned, but Zhuge Chen understood something and reached out to hold Bai Qiucha.
"What you just said is very true. I am stronger than you, so I don't understand your pain. I can even tell you that the place where I live is much safer than yours. No ferocious beasts have been able to get close to me for decades."
Bai Qi glanced at the townspeople below who were becoming increasingly angry, a hint of mockery appearing on his face.
"Are you not convinced? Do you want to teach me a lesson after you gain power? Fine! I'll give you this chance!"
Bai Qi made way and fiddled with the alchemy formation under his feet, and the alchemy formation started up again.
"This is the source of power you want. Just stand here and you can get the power you want. Now, who will go first?"
Bai Qi's cold eyes swept over the people around him one by one. After seeing the first resident who raised objections, the chain of judgment suddenly flew out and pulled him over.
Bai Qi's sudden attack obviously frightened the man, but after seeing the half-smile on Bai Qi's face, he suddenly became angry and looked at Bai Qi with wide eyes.
Seeing this, Bai Qi smiled and said, "Didn't you want power just now? Now I'll give you this opportunity."
As he spoke, Delta opened the space channel and captured a majestic tiger from the cage in the underground palace.
"This is a lord-level beast. After fusion, ordinary beasts can't hurt you. What do you think? Do you dare to try it?"
"Why not!"
The man raised his head and strode into the position designated by Bai Qi, while the tiger was thrown to the opposite position on the other side.
Then, in Bai Qiucha's puzzled and surprised eyes, Bai Qi directly activated the alchemy formation.
In an instant, the light illuminated the entire underground palace, and energy continued to flow into the formation along the lines on the wall, squeezing the people and beasts in the formation towards the center bit by bit.
Gradually, the tiger and the man merged together, and the man's body began to swell. The blood vessels in his body emerged like a dragon, and even who looked could sense the terrifying power within.
But this force was obviously beyond the man's control. After maintaining a brief state of balance, the tiger's power began to impact the man's body. The man suddenly became distorted, sometimes turning into a human, sometimes turning into a tiger, but he could never maintain it.
Bang!
Suddenly, the man's body exploded and turned into blood mist, which splashed on everyone's face.
“This…what’s going on?”
The residents of the town trembled as they looked at their hands covered in blood, completely unaware of what had just happened. Bai Qi did not explain and snapped his fingers. The blood flew back and regrouped into the shape of a man. Even the tiger returned to its original position.
"I just died?"
The man stared blankly at his intact body, as if everything was an illusion, but the lingering horrific memory in his mind was so real.
"Yes, you were indeed dead, but I brought you back to life."
Bai Qi nodded and said, "This alchemy formation can indeed allow you to gain the power of fierce beasts, but there is a prerequisite, that is, you can survive."
As he spoke, Bai Qi made way and said , "I don't know how many people survived here, but I can tell you for sure that many people died in this formation."
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of undead suddenly appeared in the square and surrounded the residents of the town tightly.
These undead spirits were basically in human form, but their faces had more or less some features of wild beasts. Their eyes were all red, and one could sense the strong resentment in them just by looking at them.
"I'm sorry, you can't understand what they're saying. Let me help you. Epsilon."
"Understood, Chief."
Chongcao nodded, and the Eyes of the Black Moon suddenly appeared. The pure power of moonlight poured down, and the vengeful spirits gradually calmed down.
At the same time, all the residents of the town had new memories in their minds that did not belong to them, and the final scenes of these memories all stayed on this alchemy formation.
Ahhhh!
(Humans, I found out after asking. They often rescue humans under the banner of officialdom and then send them here for experiments. Except for a few hundred people, all others died.)
At this moment, Beta ran back with a happy look on his face, but was also shocked when he saw so many undead in front of him.
(Human, are you planning to launch a plague of undead?)
"Scourge, you bastard!"
Bai Qi glared at Beta unhappily and waved his hand. All the undead flew behind Alpha and merged into the Sword Domain of Annihilation.
Although the souls of these undead are incomplete, their consciousness is still there. Although they cannot be resurrected, if they are left here, they will sooner or later become a disaster, so they naturally need to be packed up and taken away.
Bai Qi's actions also woke up the residents of the town, and the first person to react was still the man.
The man who had experienced life and death and knew the whole situation seemed to have undergone a huge transformation. After staring at Bai Qi for a long time, he suddenly knelt on the ground.
"Sir, please save us!"
The man's words immediately resonated with the other town residents, who all knelt on the ground and begged Bai Qi for help.
"Save you? I'm sorry, I'm not interested. If you want to survive, you can only rely on yourselves."
Bai Qi snorted coldly and stepped hard with his right foot, and the alchemy formation was completely shattered.
"There are enough objects in this underground palace, and the defense is also very good. If you don't want to die, don't run around."
Bai Qi glanced at Zhuge Chen and Bai Qiucha, then turned around and left. The two immediately followed him, leaving a group of people staring at each other in bewilderment.
"Niger, what should we do next?"
An old man walked up to the man, looking worried, and asked.
"Didn't that gentleman say that you should live on your own?"
A gleam of determination flashed in the eyes of the man named Nig, and then he began to make arrangements in an orderly manner.
At the entrance of the underground palace.
Bai Qi quickly left the underground palace, looked at the slowly closing door, was silent for a moment, and skillfully set up a rune formation around him.
"Bai Qi, what are you doing?"
Zhuge Chen asked doubtfully.
"Now that the angel is dead, someone will definitely come to investigate. By then, these people will still have to become experimental subjects, so we need to move them to another place."
Bai Qi drew the last stroke, and Delta appeared, injecting the power of space into the position reserved by Bai Qi, and a deep pit suddenly appeared.
"Bai Qi, did you teleport them to another place?"
"Yes, but whether they can survive depends on their own luck."
Bai Qi nodded. Shuke had modified the layout of the underground palace during the interrogation and added many defensive runes. As long as they didn't go out on their own initiative, they would be fine.
"Bai Qi, if you want to save them, why do you make yourself look so fierce and evil? Can't you just talk to them nicely?"
Bai Qiucha was a little confused, while Bai Qi shook his head helplessly and said, "Sometimes, intimidation is much more effective than reasoning, not to mention letting them experience it for themselves."
"I have done everything I can, the rest is up to them."
Bai Qi stretched and looked towards the east.
"Next, we should go meet the mastermind behind this incident~"
