Chapter 1611: Chapter 1611: Seeking Immortals in the Underworld (Part 2)

Chuzheng felt the elevator plummet for a full thirty seconds, such a rapid descent, for thirty seconds, how many meters underground would this be?

Bang—

The elevator hit the ground, the enormous sound made her eardrums ache, Chuzheng grabbed the floating Ginseng Fruit beside her and stuffed it into her pocket.

"Unknown creature A·78 is ten meters away from you." The robot reported to Chuzheng: "Master, it’s coming, it’s coming!!"

"Five meters."

"One meter."

Bang—

The elevator door twisted, opening directly into a gap, the thing outside kicked again, and the elevator door had already lost its function as a door.

Chuzheng stood inside, unperturbed, looking at the unknown creature outside the elevator door.

It was a black gorilla, nearly one point eight meters tall, with a sturdy physique, blocking the outside, making the whole space seem smaller.

A pair of almost invisible tiny eyes eerily stared at Chuzheng.

It let out a low growl and punched the elevator door again, then suddenly lunged inside the elevator.

Chuzheng slightly turned her body, passed by it, and her palm chopped at its shoulder socket.

Silver light flickered, the gorilla seemed to sense danger and briskly retreated from Chuzheng’s side.

Taking advantage of the situation, Chuzheng kicked it into the elevator.

The elevator made a creaking sound, as if its teeth were about to fall out, the gorilla was enraged and slammed a palm on the elevator bottom, leaping up.

Chuzheng was standing outside the elevator now, the gorilla inside, as it was about to charge out, Chuzheng lightly hooked her finger in the air, the elevator suddenly collapsed, pinning the gorilla’s half body.

The gorilla bared its teeth and roared at Chuzheng, supporting the ground, trying to get up.

Chuzheng slid her finger downward, the metal of the elevator pressed on it further, sinking heavily once more.

Whoosh—

Flames—

Black flames extended from the ground, Chuzheng stepped back several paces, silver radiance gathered at her feet, isolating the flames.

Chuzheng’s gaze slightly dimmed, her feet moved gently, the silver glow spread like a stirred galaxy, shimmering brightly, then ignited visibly.

Silver flames intertwined with black flames, both trying to overpower each other.

However, the black flames began to weaken noticeably, gradually consumed by the silver flames.

Chuzheng raised her hand for a moment, the silver radiance spread like light, illuminating the surroundings.

They were still in a tunnel, and at the other end, a huge lizard lay crouched.

The black flames came from its side; this should be A245.

The code merely indicates the entry order in the archives, not rank or strength; A245 was evidently stronger than the gorilla.

Yet no matter how strong, it wasn’t a problem for Chuzheng.

How dare these creatures provoke me?

Do they think I’m easy prey?!

I won’t let them off!

After all, they were the ones who broke regulations and attacked me; it’s perfectly reasonable and legal!

-

In a certain room.

"Why is she here?"

A deep, slightly hoarse voice filled with a hint of anger sounded in the room.

The speaker stood in front of a surveillance screen, clad in a neatly trimmed suit, tall and straight, his back view alone was captivating.

Behind him stood a middle-aged, slightly chubby, bald man, currently wiping cold sweat, daring not to answer.

The man lacked patience, sharply commanded: "Speak!"

The bald man shuddered, stammeringly responded: "Sir, someone intruded previously, we dealt with them... but unexpectedly, someone came in again last night."

Then...

Then this person appeared.

The man turned around, his face masked in black, obscuring his features, revealing only a pair of cold, deep eyes: "Why was the intrusion not reported?"

The bald man: "..."

The bald man trembled, explaining with difficulty.

They thought they could handle it, trying not to alarm him.

Who knew it would attract someone from Wenxian Road...

"I didn’t expect her to come here so quickly." The bald man felt guilty, not daring to meet the man’s gaze.

The masked man sneered, pointing at the screen, asking, "How to handle this now?"

The bald man: "..."

Everyone knew not to mess with Wenxian Road.

The master of Yellow Springs Road held absolute control over unknown creatures; with their current strength, facing her was suicidal.

"Please... please advise, sir."

The bald man couldn’t think of a better idea and reluctantly sought guidance.

The masked man stared at the screen, both unknown creatures had already fallen silent, while the girl stood in the center, casual and relaxed, as if she hadn’t moved at all.

The masked man’s gaze darkened, stating: "Destroy this place."

"Sir!!" The bald man was startled: "This place..."

"What, do you want her to take you back?" The masked man’s voice grew colder: "If you want to die, don’t drag me down with you."

"..."

Of course, the bald man didn’t want to die, but this place had been operated for a long time, with many things stored here; abandoning it meant restarting many things.

But since the sir had said so, he dared not disobey and rushed to execute the order.

The masked man stood before the screen, watching the person inside, with his deep eyes revealing a dangerous glint.

-

Chuzheng knocked down the two unknown creatures, killed one directly, and stored its Soul in a small bottle.

She turned to look at the gorilla pinned by the elevator, walking over a few steps.

The gorilla growled low at her, looking fierce and savage.

Chuzheng ignored its threats and took out the Ginseng Fruit: "I want to know everything it knows."

The Ginseng Fruit shook its leaves: "Okay."

Gorilla: "???"

The leaves atop the Ginseng Fruit, previously tender green, had turned vibrant green, the gorilla stared at it; initially aggressive, its expression quickly relaxed.

"Time is only five minutes." The Ginseng Fruit said to Chuzheng: "Ask whatever you want quickly."

The Ginseng Fruit’s level was lower, five minutes was its limit.

Chuzheng indicated she understood, the Ginseng Fruit immediately retreated to the side like a flower vase.

Chuzheng walked up to the gorilla: "Who is behind you?"

"I... don’t know." The gorilla answered clumsily, as if it had just learned to speak.

"Who is in charge here?" Chuzheng asked again. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

"Bao Lei."

Chuzheng’s eyes narrowed slightly, when she first arrived, she saw this name on the staff display wall of the mortuary.

Why did so many people just happen to notice this one?

Because he’s at the top of the pyramid, the whole mortuary is under his direction.

"Is he human or a host for unknown creatures?"

"A host..."

"What is your purpose?"

The gorilla didn’t answer immediately; its face briefly twisted, as if resisting.

The leaves on the Ginseng Fruit’s head grew greener, the gorilla hesitantly replying: "Let them... all... inhabit bodies."

Chuzheng’s gaze shifted slightly: "Are they unknown creatures?"

"Yes."

Chuzheng felt her heart sink, Liu Zhong’s speculation was correct.

"This place is full of corpses; how did you do it?"
