Chapter 263: Bones and Gods
“I can’t underestimate the investigation centre. They might not be that good at killing ghosts, but they are experts at killing humans.”
Gao Ming wiped the blood away from his hands. His insouciance caused K’s face to darken.
“We have everything on Qian Junran from the moment of his birth until now. It is so accurate that I can say we know everything about him.” K suppressed his anger. He tried to maintain his last vestige of calmness.
“Don’t you think it’s a waste for you to focus your resources on humans rather than ghosts?” Gao Ming wore a psychological mask. This mask made by Xuan Wen allowed him to precisely pinpoint his enemy’s location.
“You are not Qian Junran. You should be his classmate. We temporarily can’t confirm your identity, but it doesn’t matter anymore.” K grabbed the sheath with his left hand and the hilt with his right.
“They call you their team leader, so you call the shots for this mission. I’m glad that I can meet you here.” Gao Ming’s joy was genuine. This meant that K had stopped chasing after Xuan Wen and came to him, “The commotion I made was meaningful.”
“Did you purposely want to get our attention?” A polite-looking security member wanted to stop K. “Leader, he might be on the same team as the ghosts from the hospital. We have discovered traces of people living here. Li San Hospital is probably the base of the horror game players.
“K, don’t be fooled by him.” The member touched his blood band. Other than K, no one cared about the dead teammate.
“Our mission is to kill all the horror game players. The target is standing before us now. There’s no reason to let him go.” K was not saying this to his teammates but to the people watching them from the bands.
Even though the back building had blocked all the signals, they had to record everything. After they left, there would be professionals to examine the recordings frame by frame to ensure that no one was consumed by the ghost tattoos. All the security members who came from the taboo game were covered in ghost tattoos. The ghost tattoos were the sharpest knives, so sharp that even the users were cautious of them.
The chains in the torture room rattled. The God of Flesh and Blood was heavily triggered. Gao Ming frowned as he stared at K. He thought that everyone in the investigation centre would side with fate to maintain the rules created by fate. However, K acted more like a parent from the shadow world. Like Gao Ming, he was chosen by a certain dead God.
“Will you wake up from the dream or become the owner of the dream?”
Thousands of white bones pressed down. The security members jumped back. From their perspective, Gao Ming was already dead. No one could survive K’s attack. A thick fragrance of meat seeped out of the gaps between the bone fingers. Everyone suddenly heard the heavy heartbeats. The heartbeats echoed in everyone’s heart before congregating at the spot within the centre of the white bones.
The heartbeats sounded like drums and thunder!
The security members then realised the walls, floor, table, and everything in the room were turning into flesh. The captivating scent of meat floated everywhere. The fragrance surrounded the awful stench.
The white bones shattered as a giant bloody hand reached out from the broken bones. The chains with the brand of soul crawled towards K!
The white bones were illusory. They borrowed the power of ghost tattoos, faith and death to become partially real. The chains in Gao Ming’s torture room were completely different. Every chain was made from a twisted soul. He didn’t need the power of the God of Flesh and Blood to control them. Made by hatred, they would automatically destroy everything before them.
“From your habits, you don’t appear to be left-handed. However, the way you carry the blade is different from others. Your stronger right hand holds the hilt, and your left hand holds the sheath. This can only mean that the sheath is more important than the blade.” Gao Ming’s voice climbed out of the white bones. His eyes were filled with red. His expression was scarily calm. “I am very sensitive to flesh and blood. Your sheath should be made with the corpse of that God, right? That would explain why the horrible smell floated out when you pulled out the blade. It can also explain why the white bony fingers can only move within the zone with the smell.”
In just a few seconds, K hadn’t found Gao Ming’s trump card, but Gao Ming had already figured out K’s weakness.
