Chapter 176: Chapter 176 Confession Light
The pitch-black portal appeared out of thin air above the lawn, and any sane person who saw this scene would probably scream in terror.
But that group of drunken high school students seemed to be in an “extremely high” state at the moment, as they pointed at the portal and started to giggle foolishly.
Even when a pair of rough, black-scaled sharp claws suddenly reached out from the portal the next moment, not one of the high school students screamed or fled.
“Squeak!”
The first monster came out, suddenly crawling out from the portal.
It resembled a small dog-like monster with a pair of huge sharp claws, a skinny torso, short hind limbs, and two oversized ears. But what was most striking was its big mouth and the dense teeth inside.
Its eyes seemed to flicker with a phosphorescent glow.
It crawled out slowly, as if observing the surroundings.
Until it saw a lawn full of “food.”
“Squeak~ Squeak Squeak”
Squealing like a rat, it kept making noises from its mouth, calling its peers.
Then, without waiting any longer, it pounced on the nearest student, biting towards the student’s head, as if it wanted to yank it off directly and swallow it.
Moving along with it were more and more monsters, quickly scrambling out from the portal.
It was like tearing open an anthill, a mass of dark monsters swarmed out, all with light in their eyes, lunging at the drunken food.
However, their action soon failed.
Angela, who was in the midst of chanting a spell, suddenly uttered an obscure word from her charming red lips, and a ring of light flashed by.
The bodies of all the monsters were frozen in mid-air.
At this moment, Angela’s smile was unrestrained and seductive.
She looked at this scene with a face of indulgence, as if she had fallen into an indescribable state, an abnormal flush creeping up her cheeks.
A low moan came from her mouth, utterly unconcerned with the many observers around.
Fortunately, it seemed she still remembered the important stuff.
After calming down, she looked back at the magic book before her and uttered each word, full of obscure and difficult meanings, that finally turned into a low shout.
The monsters that were suspended in motion, at this moment, started to move in unison.
Their eyes’ phosphorescent glow turned dull, but their movements were swift and orderly, like a group of monster soldiers swarming out.
But they were not lunging at food.
Instead, it was the Thorns Campus and various places within it.
In the deep of the night, this scene was extremely horrifying.
Especially against the backdrop of the group of drunken students, it seemed as if this was not a holy school, but rather a land of monsters.
As they moved, in the distance, Tang Qi coldly watched the situation unfold.
He had no intention of intervening; if elsewhere and a good opportunity had presented itself, Tang Qi would have chosen to step in.
But here, Tang Qi was content to remain inconspicuous.
However, this did not prevent the ghost light from stirring up in the depths of his eyes.
A special image quickly formed.
[Extraordinary Creatures: Claw Demon.]
[State: Normal.]
[Information Fragment One: A type of demon that is as common as ants in some Exotic Realm. They are bloodthirsty and cruel, but not very powerful in combat. They only pose a threat when they swarm together.]
[Information Fragment Two: They have extremely keen smell and perception. If given targeted instructions, they make the most excellent Transcendent Hunting Dogs.]
“They’re not thinking of…?”
Tang Qi immediately guessed something when he saw the fragments flowing past the bottom of his field of vision.
These second-generation evolvers had bribed the night-time Administrator of the campus and made such a commotion, daring to think of using “Transcendent Hunting Dogs” to search for the Treasure of the Confessor that might exist on campus.
It had to be said, this method was a bit unconventional.
Treasure of the Confessor!
Many from the Mysterious Side who knew of it, especially with the “puppet master” deliberately spreading the map, presumably, more people would be aware.
But whether it was the Manatee Sea Demon or Abu, even with a treasure map in hand, they still chose to operate in secrecy.
This brazen approach by the second-generations was indeed rare.
However, it seemed more like they were courting death.
Spiritual Tide Return!
These four words signify not just the resurgence of Abnormality and Evil.
The beings aligned with righteousness and the Order Camp likewise recovered rapidly.
That’s also why Tang Qi had always been concealed within the campus; he could sense that the seal power of the Confessor was also reviving.
It was an incredibly complex, vast seal, with numerous tendrils reaching out into unknown places.
Tang Qi was keen to study it but had no idea where to begin.
Now, some had volunteered to be the “test products.”
And soon, feedback arrived.
These Claw Demons, although all were merely Little Ones and their combat prowess was inferior to the initial Blank Dog-faced Man.
But they are, without doubt, Chaotic Creatures, swarming in groups within the campus, a sheer provocation to the “Confessor Seal.”
“Boom”
As they pounced toward various parts of the campus, an immense oppressive force suddenly descended.
Even Tang Qi felt it.
It was a vast, indescribable aura of horror, seemingly warning the Claw Demons.
Their speed slowed instantly, and they let out cries of fear.
Yet the second-generation students seemed oblivious.
Especially Angela, who, holding the Magic Book and repeatedly chanting, was forcefully commanding the Claw Demons.
Although already engulfed in fear, the Claw Demons were even less able to resist commands from Angela.
They continued to spread until the next moment, when punishment fell upon them.
Several Claw Demons, passing by the corner of a large building, where a white brick overgrown with moss and carved with a fish-like symbol was placed, “whooosh,” a burst of Holy Light emerged, effortlessly enveloping the several Claw Demons.
These Extraordinary Hunting Dogs didn’t even have the chance to cry out before they turned to ash and dissipated.
…
A lamppost carved with a dove suddenly descended a soft radiance, silently annihilating all the Claw Demons that passed.
…
A floor tile painted with some vague pattern released radiance, turning dozens of Claw Demons in the vicinity into ash.
…
Within a small fountain, the Holy Light burst forth, completely annihilating the locust-like Claw Demons.
…
Slaughter!
What unfolded before Tang Qi’s eyes was a massacre.
Against the Holy Light, the Claw Demons didn’t even have a chance to wail.
This was normal, for the Information Fragment that continuously appeared in Tang Qi’s mind told him. Most beings leaning towards evil and chaos, faced with that radiance, have no ability to resist.
“Confession Light: Chaotic Evil creatures failing the judgment will face destruction…”
Brutally simple, and extremely unreasonable.
Tang Qi even suspected whether throwing Samra, Evil Punisher, and Ronald into that light would result in the same conclusion.
And this shocking scene similarly plunged the second-generation students into astonishment.
They seemed to have finally realized this was not a game, nor a so-called “great adventure.” They were truly and utterly courting death.
But it seemed they had no way to retreat now.
Angela, leading the group, was the first to snap out of it. Keeping up a difficult seductive smile on her face like a Charming Demon, she gritted her teeth and did not stop at all, but continued to chant spells, summoning one Claw Demon after another.
She wanted to take advantage of the sealing power not yet fully unleashed to find a breakthrough with the “locust tactic.”
Unexpectedly, she soon succeeded.
As the Claw Demons rapidly died, one squad eventually found a gap, seven or eight Claw Demons broke through the Confession Light and successfully entered deeper into the campus.
“Squeak~ Squeak Squeak”
Excited cries came from the mouths of these Claw Demons.
Then, they quickly scurried through the shaded paths, past a forest, and entered a simple bell tower area, in an open space, a pair of huge sharp claws began to furiously dig.
Dirt flying, a big pit quickly appeared.
“Dong”
Without warning, a strange noise as if something terrible had been triggered.
A burst of light suddenly surged, and they once more turned to ash and disappeared.
But at this time, the second-generation students all realized what they had found, foregoing previous terror and instead showing excitement and surprise.
Only Tang Qi, in his own small building, had an unusually odd expression at this moment.
What do you think?
