30: Your mission is complete, die!

At the same time...

Chen Nian was still continuously hunting down the Vengeful Spirits that were scattering in all directions.

He was like a fierce tiger that had broken into a flock of sheep, and those Ghostly Creatures, who were usually ferocious and evil, had now become the most panicked lambs.

They screamed and roared, using every means possible to escape from the clutches of this Fiend.

But Chen Nian's pace remained unhurried, carrying a sense of playfulness like a cat catching a mouse.

With a wave of his hand, a Ghostly Creature was struck until its body exploded, and it died.

With a lift of his foot, several Ghostly Creatures were kicked in half on the spot.

At that moment, a Second-Order Ghostly Creature tried to flee.

Chen Nian's figure flickered, and he appeared directly in front of that Ghostly Creature.

The Ghostly Creature was instantly startled; it opened its bloody maw and spat out a stream of foul-smelling ghostly Qi, attempting to resist.

Chen Nian didn't even look at it, simply raising his hand and waving it casually.

“Bang—!”

A dull explosion sounded.

That Second-Order Ghostly Creature's head shattered instantly, like a watermelon struck by a heavy hammer.

Chen Nian didn't stop for a second, continuing his hunt under the terrified gazes of the Ghostly Creatures.

The entire process was smooth and natural, as if Chen Nian killing Ghostly Creatures was as simple as breathing, requiring no technical skill whatsoever.

For a time, the entire space was filled with a vast expanse of wails and screams.

Of course, these wails and screams didn't belong to Chen Nian, but to those Ghostly Creatures.

【Ding! Killed a First-Tier Ghostly Being, obtained 21 points.】

【Ding! Killed a Second-Order Ghostly Creature, obtained 115 points.】

【Ding! Killed...】

Hearing the System notifications constantly ringing in his mind, Chen Nian felt completely comfortable.

He was already starting to enjoy the slaughter.

This feeling of constantly harvesting Ghostly Creatures and gaining points was truly wonderful.

However, if his other colleagues from the Spiritual Energy Bureau were to see this terrifying and brutal scene, they probably wouldn't be able to tell for a moment who was the real ghost and who was the real human.

He was preparing to go deeper and completely clear out this Ghost Domain.

Suddenly...

A strange noise came from the darkness ahead.

It wasn't the roar of a Ghostly Creature, but a heavy and chaotic sound of footsteps.

Among them, there were also meaningless "he-he" sounds coming from throats.

Chen Nian stopped in his tracks and cast his gaze toward the direction of the sound.

At the end of the darkness, a group of staggering figures was slowly walking out.

Their eyes were hollow, their movements stiff, and they were dressed in various civilian clothes.

And beside them, there were also three men wearing the uniforms of Spiritual Energy Bureau Agents.

Chen Nian understood instantly.

These people were the citizens and Spiritual Energy Bureau Special Agents who had been reported missing in this area earlier.

However, at this moment, there wasn't a single trace of a living person's Life Qi left on them.

In its place was an endless ghostly Qi so thick it wouldn't dissipate, and a nauseating stench of rotting corpses.

They had long been dead.

What stood here now were nothing more than Living Corpses controlled by Evil Techniques.

A nameless fury slowly rose from the bottom of Chen Nian's heart.

They were already dead, yet they still had to be desecrated by these scumbags, unable to find even a final peace.

The fellow behind this truly deserved ten thousand deaths!

Just then, those Living Corpses seemed to receive some kind of command.

“He-ah—!”

A scream that didn't sound human came from their throats as they suddenly launched an attack toward Chen Nian.

The civilian Living Corpses, relying on their numbers, pounced forward fearlessly; their fingernails were pitch black, and their faces were distorted.

Meanwhile, the three Living Corpses of the Spiritual Energy Bureau Special Agents displayed a completely different method of attack.

Their hands formed seals; though their movements were stiff, they still drew upon the surrounding spiritual energy. Three dim yet still lethal Spiritual Energy Attacks whistled toward Chen Nian.

Chen Nian's gaze instantly became bone-chillingly cold.

Facing the pouncing civilian Living Corpses, he didn't have the slightest bit of pity or hesitation.

Because he knew that showing mercy to these shells that had completely lost their Souls would be the greatest insult to them.

He waved his hand casually.

The air let out an explosive boom.

“Bang—!”

The heads of the foremost civilian Living Corpses shattered instantly, like being hit by a high-speed truck, with red and white matter splashing in all directions.

Immediately after, he just gave a casual wave, and Blood-colored Silk Threads shot out, directly blocking the Spiritual Energy Attacks from the Spiritual Energy Bureau Special Agents.

At that moment, one of the Spiritual Energy Bureau Special Agents closed in.

His fist, wrapped in powerful spiritual energy, smashed violently toward Chen Nian's head.

However, Chen Nian simply struck out with a backhanded knife-hand strike.

“Puchi!”

The body of that Special Agent Living Corpse was split directly into two from the middle by him.

The scene was bloody to the extreme.

In the eyes of the remaining two Spiritual Energy Bureau Special Agent Living Corpses, a trace of programmed bewilderment seemed to flash.

But Chen Nian did not intend to give them any more chances.

His figure was so fast it blurred, appearing instantly in front of the two Special Agent Living Corpses.

He looked at their hollow and numb faces, his voice calm and low: “Your mission is over, now die.”

The moment the words fell...

His hands were already pressed against the tops of their heads.

“Bang! Bang!”

Two dull sounds of cracking bone.

The bodies of the two Special Agent Living Corpses stiffened simultaneously, their heads exploded, and their headless corpses fell heavily to the ground, completely losing all movement.

Chen Nian withdrew his hands and looked coldly toward the deeper parts of this space.

He could feel that the source of that foul stench was right there.
