Ghost Catching System-Chapter 470 - 469 S-Level Demon Exorcist_1
Chu Hao was in a foul mood. Those bastards from the Dwarf Kingdom had let a terrible Demon Head into Huaxia Country. This Heavenly Bone Woman was terrifyingly powerful, essentially a real-life version of the Bai Gu Spirit, a devil who killed without batting an eye.
Chu Hao also wanted to destroy the Heavenly Bone Woman, but seeking her out now would undoubtedly be suicide. At that moment, Chu Hao’s farsight ability allowed him to see the Heavenly Bone Woman standing amidst a pool of blood. She opened her hands, and a hazy grey aura flowed from her fingertips, entering the corpses. What was she doing?
The previously dead bodies began to tremble violently. In just a few seconds, they had stood up again, their limbs stiff, their faces twitching, completely transformed into zombie-like beings.
As Chu Hao watched, his hair stood on end and fear spread through his heart. She even has the means to turn people into the living dead. How much more does this Heavenly Bone Woman have up her sleeve?
The thought of Anli City being overtaken by the Heavenly Bone Woman, crawling with the living dead, nearly stopped Chu Hao’s heart. A major event had occurred. A new era was dawning, or perhaps it was the destruction of an era. Who could suppress the Heavenly Bone Woman? It wasn’t just her; were there many other things in the world that could possibly spell disaster for all living beings?
Chu Hao found himself faced with a choice: run for his life or fight? Anli City... he had lived here for so many years. Was he really going to watch it turn into a hell of the living dead?
I will not agree.
Chu Hao’s eyes were fixed on the Heavenly Bone Woman.
Chu Hao said, "System, how many Pretentiousness Points do I need to take down the Heavenly Bone Woman now?"
The System replied, "Forty thousand Pretentiousness Points."
As expected, the cost has increased. Taking advantage of her weakened state right after her emergence is a good opportunity to eliminate her. If she were allowed to continue growing, the trouble would be truly serious.
Chu Hao asked, "System, what are my chances of killing her now?"
The System inquired, "What does the Host think?"
"Fifty percent," Chu Hao replied.
"The Host is overestimating himself," the System said. "Two percent would be good. However, there is more than a fifty percent chance of sealing the Heavenly Bone Woman."
Chu Hao took a deep breath. Even if there was a chance of failure, he had to try. He would never agree to the entire city turning into a hell of the living dead.
A fight with my back against the wall.
Chu Hao commanded, "System, upgrade Zhang Fei to full level."
Zhang Fei appeared—the black-bearded giant with eyes wide in anger. He was eight feet tall, and his previous escape had left him deeply unsatisfied.
The System recommended, "Host is advised to purchase a General Ghost Pill, which will cost ten thousand Pretentiousness Points."
"Purchase."
"Ding... Host has purchased a General Ghost Pill, spending ten thousand Pretentiousness Points. Remaining balance is thirteen thousand Pretentiousness Points."
Zhang Fei consumed the General Ghost Pill.
"Ding... Zhang Fei’s level has been raised to 8."
"Ding... Zhang Fei’s level has been raised to 9."
Ghost General: Zhang Fei
Level: 9
Strength: 4,000
Agility: 2,800
Intelligence: 5,000
Skill One: Summon Soldier Spirits (Summons 200 soldiers)
Skill Two: Fierce Spirit (Increases his strength by seventy percent)
Skill Three: Xuanwu Armor (Increases his strength by one hundred percent and his defense by two hundred percent)
With Zhang Fei at full level, his attributes were outrageously powerful; calling him a war machine was no exaggeration.
Zhao Yun was also summoned.
Ghost General: Zhao Yun
Level: 9
Strength: 2,000
Agility: 2,000
Intelligence: 4,000
Skill One: Summon Soldier Spirits (Summons 200 soldiers)
Skill Two: Spear Spirit (Increases spear technique power by one hundred percent)
Skill Three: Qilin Armor (Increases his strength by one hundred percent and his speed by two hundred percent)
With two max-level Ghost Generals and himself, even the Heavenly Bone Woman would have a headache, right?
Still not enough. Although Chu Hao really wanted to have a fierce battle, he wasn’t foolish. He would fight only with the premise of being able to survive.
Chu Hao said, "System, purchase the Top-Grade Marrow Cleansing Manual."
"Ding... Host purchased the Top-Grade Marrow Cleansing Manual, consuming 6,000 Pretentiousness Points. Remaining Pretentiousness Points: 7,000."
Chu Hao studied the Top-Grade Marrow Cleansing Manual. His heart pounded so loudly that someone five meters away could probably hear it. His skin turned red as if on fire, and his bones cracked and clashed alarmingly, like metal striking stone.
"Ding... Host studied three volumes of the Top-Grade Marrow Cleansing Manual, gained 10,000 Mana Points."
He completed three rounds of top-grade marrow cleansing, gaining 10,000 Mana Points. His Mana Points now totaled 23,000.
The next step is Foundation Building, but alas, one Foundation Building Scripture costs 10,000 Pretentiousness Points, and three volumes are needed to achieve Intermediate Foundation Building—a very large expenditure.
Chu Hao felt that this time, he wasn’t without a chance of winning.
Dare to underestimate me? I’ll kill her! Chu Hao was filled with a fierce fighting intent.
「Meanwhile.」
The Heavenly Bone Woman slaughtered mercilessly; even one or two of the A-Level Demon Slayers who arrived were killed. The scene was chaotic. The revived living dead rushed forward, biting people in a brutal and bloody spectacle.
The head of the Seventh District, seeing people dying continuously, had bloodshot eyes and bellowed, "When are the S-Level Demon Exorcists arriving?"
"They’re on their way, ETA about ten more minutes," a man in black replied hastily.
The head commanded, "Hold the line! Stall for another ten minutes!"
Only an S-Level Demon Exorcist could combat such a monster; anyone else charging forward would only die in vain.
Many people had gathered, not just from the Seventh District, but also from the military; large numbers had arrived.
The Heavenly Bone Woman continuously absorbed the Yang Qi of people. Her eyes, once lifeless like a dead fish’s, now took on the normal color of humans; her clear eyes grew ethereal, like those of a transcendent fairy.
"Enough is enough!"
A helicopter finally arrived overhead. Three people leaped down—the S-Level Demon Slayers from the Seventh District.
One of them was Ouyang Lan.
"The S-Level Demon Slayers have arrived!" the crowd cheered.
Of the other two, one was a middle-aged man, over two meters tall and as sturdy as a raging bear, a man known as the ’War Machine,’ Haoli. The other was an elder with a hunched back. Despite his stooped posture, which suggested a lack of combat power, he was a renowned Soul Hooking Master with the title of Human Ghost Messenger.
The arrival of these three reinvigorated the people of the Seventh District. In a short period, the number of people killed by the Heavenly Bone Woman had reached a hundred; they were truly fighting with their lives to hold her back.
Haoli twisted his neck. His robust muscles hinted at infinite explosive power. He said, "I’ll go first."
The hunchbacked elder cautioned, "Be careful. I can sense that her soul is very strong."
"To me, Haoli, souls are mere trifles! Watch how I crush her," Haoli declared.
With a roar, gold rings appeared on his wrists. The talisman patterns on them surged, the demon-subduing power of the talismans infusing his fists and making them extraordinary.
Haoli charged forth, his large size belying his speed as he covered three or four meters in a single stride. He bulldozed through the living dead, raised his cauldron-sized fists, and smashed them fiercely towards the Heavenly Bone Woman’s face.
"Pulverize!"
The Heavenly Bone Woman did not dodge. She remained calm, her Bone Sword stabbing towards the incoming fist.
Haoli sneered. Even if that were a real sword, I wouldn’t fear it in the slightest! I’ll shatter it with one punch!
