71: Yuan Gang vs. Song Zhong (Additional update 1/1 for the deputy director of Xihong City Eye Hospital)

Yuan Gang had already arrived outside the mountain depression.

At this moment, the mountain depression was filled with a light red mist, and roars and explosions occasionally came from within the mist, making the place even more eerie and terrifying.

"I want to see, who exactly are you, daring to scheme against the Night Watcher Training Camp?"

A layer of faint golden light appeared on Yuan Gang's body.

Forbidden Territory Sequence 100: Demon Suppressing Monument!

The ability of the Demon Suppressing Monument Forbidden Territory is very simple: those who Awaken this Forbidden Territory can summon nine Demon Suppressing Monuments to suppress their opponents.

Currently, Yuan Gang's limit is to summon five.

However, he rarely used his ability during his many years of fighting the Mysterious.

Because there were very few Mysterious beings that needed to be kept alive.

Compared to suppression, Yuan Gang preferred the feeling of fist-to-flesh combat; with his powerful Mental Energy alone, few Mysterious beings were his match.

Yuan Gang walked into the mountain depression, and not long after, his fists began to crackle.

On the rock in front of him lay three corpses: Li Yaoguang, Wang Gui, and Wu Ruotong.

They were arranged in a 'running' pose, with three syringes and a liquor bottle casually discarded beside them.

Yuan Gang's heart sank; he was still a step too late, and his three colleagues had already been killed.

Moreover, looking at this strange arrangement, the opponent clearly intended to use their bodies for something, which looked like some kind of evil sacrificial ritual.

"Could it be someone from the Ancient God Church?"

Within the Great Xia Kingdom, the only evil organization daring enough to kill Night Watchers was probably the Ancient God Church.

"Roar!"

Another roar came from deeper within the red mist.

Yuan Gang bent down, reached out, and closed the eyes of the three deceased instructors.

"Everyone, I'm sorry, I came late!" He stood up, his eyes filled with killing intent, "This debt, I, Yuan Gang, will settle for you!"

Clang!

The straight blade was unsheathed, and a faint golden light covered the blade.

Yuan Gang held the blade and walked deeper...

Deep within the red mist, Song Zhong could no longer distinguish between illusion and reality.

In his eyes, wild boars were killed one group after another, and grotesque things constantly emerged from all directions.

"No one can kill me, no one can destroy me, hahaha..."

Suddenly, a strange sensation struck him, and Song Zhong sharply turned his head.

He saw a golden-armored ape walking towards him; the ape had a green face and fangs, and blood was still dripping from its mouth, as if it had just eaten something.

"Hehe, finally something different has come this time, hahaha!"

Song Zhong scrutinized this peculiar monster, his eyes filled with curiosity.

Yuan Gang looked at the fellow who had infiltrated the Training Camp; his entire body was grayish-blue, and his nails were very similar to those monsters.

He asked, "Who are you? Where is Mu Dong? What is your purpose?"

Unfortunately, Song Zhong couldn't hear what he was saying at all; from his perspective, there was only a golden-armored ape baring its teeth at him.

"You, are you also here to kill me?" Song Zhong's voice was already hoarse, making him sound weak.

"Answer my questions!" Yuan Gang's voice was full of vigor, like a large bell.

"I know, you're all here to kill me, hahaha!" Song Zhong beckoned to Yuan Gang with his finger, "Come on, let's see who wins today!"

Yuan Gang frowned, "Did the sacrifice go wrong? This guy seems to have gone mad."

"Then there's no need to question him!"

Yuan Gang swung his blade, and the blade suddenly burst into golden light, a powerful slash cutting towards Song Zhong.

Unfortunately, Song Zhong didn't feel it at all; in his eyes, the ape merely picked up a stick from the ground and waved it at him from a distance.

Clang!

The slash landed on Song Zhong's shoulder, emitting a metallic clang.

Song Zhong was stunned; this guy could hit him from such a distance?

Song Zhong pushed off with his legs and charged forward in a sprint.

Yuan Gang saw that his blade Qi had struck the opponent's body, yet the opponent was completely unharmed.

What kind of monster is this? Its defense is a bit abnormal.

Seeing Song Zhong charge forward, Yuan Gang chose to retreat immediately.

The opponent's physical defense was extremely strong; approaching rashly before understanding the situation was a bad move.

Song Zhong saw the opponent trying to retreat, and his eyes became frantic.

"Trying to run? Watch my Nitrogen Boost!"

Boom!

A light spot suddenly exploded behind Song Zhong, directly pushing Song Zhong in front of Yuan Gang.

"Hahahahaha! Run then!"

As Song Zhong yelled wildly, his left claw directly grabbed Yuan Gang's neck.

Yuan Gang gasped, directly using the Star Blade to block Song Zhong's wrist.

At the same time, Yuan Gang lowered his body, moving directly from Song Zhong's left armpit to his back.

Yuan Gang pulled back the Star Blade, intending to decapitate him with a single strike from behind.

But he never expected that Song Zhong's left arm would rotate 180 degrees, an action absolutely impossible for a human; just as he moved behind Song Zhong, the opponent's left hand followed, grabbing at his chest.

With a crack, Yuan Gang could even hear the sound of Song Zhong's joints breaking.

A reverse grab?

The range of this grab is too wide, isn't it?

Yuan Gang instinctively wanted to block with his blade, but he hadn't considered that Song Zhong's nails were too long.

Pfft!

Three bloody marks were left on Yuan Gang's chest.

"I hit you, I hit you!" Song Zhong let out a chilling laugh.

He immediately turned around, his right hand performing a black tiger heart-digging move, intending to dig out Yuan Gang's heart.

Yuan Gang pushed the blade with both hands, and with a bang, in a flash of lightning, Song Zhong directly crashed onto the blade.

The immense force directly sent Yuan Gang flying, and at this moment, his mind was only filled with shock.

What kind of fighting style does this guy have? His left hand should have been completely useless after that last move, right?

This fighting style isn't even about fighting recklessly; it's just chaotic.

But the opponent is incredibly strong and has the means to control explosions.

He knew that the opponent had used this move in the game to force the Mask Squad to break through their defenses.

However, now it seems the opponent prefers close-quarters combat, even using explosions merely as a means of acceleration.

This guy is truly a beast.

To deal with a beast, you need a cage, and he just happens to have one!

Watching Song Zhong charge wildly towards him, Yuan Gang put away the Star Blade and pressed his hands together.

"Suppress Demon!"

As the two powerful words came from Yuan Gang's mouth, three golden beams of light descended from the sky, directly falling into the mountain depression.

At this moment, the new recruits who were still training extra in the Training Camp all noticed this scene.

And Instructor Hong, upon seeing it, became even more worried.

Rumble!

A strong wind suddenly rose, and dust scattered everywhere, as three gigantic golden steles trapped Song Zhong in the middle.

Golden electric nets connected between the golden steles, forming an invisible barrier.

Song Zhong felt the world around him change again; high, high walls had been built around him.

"Want to trap me? No way!"

With that, Song Zhong headbutted the wall.

Yuan Gang was shocked, not by Song Zhong's actions, but because the Demon Suppressing Monument actually shook.

Sizzle!

The electric nets between the steles actually began to show signs of loosening.

"Three aren't enough? Then, five!"
