Infinity: Kill your way through the movie world.

Chapter 996 Three-way confrontation

When they arrived at the scene, they found that police vehicles had completely surrounded the area, and a large cordon had been set up around it.

Many criminal investigators and forensic experts are busy collecting evidence at the scene; clearly, what happened here has been fully exposed.

The group concealed themselves and sneaked into the scene, where they saw a triangular pit about one meter in diameter in the middle of the road, which had been covered and filled with corrugated iron rubble.

But what attracted their attention most at that moment was not the deep pit, but the scattered pieces of corpses marked with white lime next to it.

A group of people dressed in what looked like research uniforms were carefully collecting the fragments and putting them into special isolation bags.

"It's those seven demons! They've actually been killed!" Quirk exclaimed in a low voice.

"Their wounds are identical; they were all killed by the same force," Budiman said after careful observation. "The person who could do this is probably far stronger than us, perhaps even reaching the level of a goat-man demon!"

"Could it be the work of the goat-man devil?" Jeff wondered.

“Impossible,” Budiman immediately denied. “It shouldn’t be here yet, and if it had discovered our actions back then, it wouldn’t have let us leave before killing these demons.”

"Who is it?" Quirk's voice was filled with shock.

The others looked at each other, none of them able to offer an answer.

Boudiman closed his eyes, carefully sensing the atmosphere: "I didn't sense any fragments of the middle-aged man's soul here. His scent disappeared, so he didn't die here."

Two slender spider legs slowly emerged from behind Anita.

These spider legs stretched out into the surrounding air, seemingly capturing some invisible information; her body's sense of fear was operating at its peak.

"I can feel the lingering waves of terror here."

With her eyes closed, she kept speaking: "What remained in the end was the fear of those seven demons. Although it was brief, it was very intense. It was the pure fear of facing death."

"Judging from the intensity and duration of the fear, they must have been killed simultaneously in an instant!"

At this point, Anita's tone became unusually serious: "The power to kill seven demons instantly is beyond our imagination. This means that the other side can also kill six of us in an instant, and is definitely not a deadly threat that can be ignored."

“At the same time, I also sensed,” she continued, “that the middle-aged man’s fear suddenly lessened at a certain moment, as if he had been comforted, but then a completely different kind of fear arose. It was not the kind of fear that comes with facing death, but rather the kind that comes with awe of some supreme being.”

“And the aura of fear from the middle-aged man was gradually moving away in that direction!” Anita pointed northeast of the highway.

Based on these analyses, she concluded: "It is certain that the middle-aged man did not die, but was rescued and left this place."

"Who would specifically rescue him from seven demons and then quietly leave?" Quirk asked, scratching his head in confusion.

“I don’t know, but it’s definitely not Lucifer,” Anita speculated. “Otherwise, with that kind of power, the moment we set foot here, the killing intent would have descended upon us.”

This possibility sent chills down everyone's spine.

“Although these demons were killed, their souls still remain in their corpses,” Boudiman said.

"If we take these corpses back, we should be able to complete the Goat-Man Demon's task quota, but we'll need to do some processing on them, preferably by using our own strength to disguise them."

After the six agreed on their plan, they immediately began their operation. Suddenly, a strong wind swept across the entire highway, and a tornado appeared out of nowhere, blowing away all the surrounding police cars and police tape.

The police officers who were on duty hurriedly took refuge in the ravines by the roadside. The road was suddenly filled with flying sand and stones, and the visibility dropped sharply. In addition, the sudden appearance of thick white fog reduced the field of vision to less than five meters.

The strange gale lasted for ten minutes before gradually subsiding.

When the officers returned to the scene, still shaken, they found that all the car wreckage was still there, but the severed limbs that were clearly not human and were next to the triangular crater had all vanished without a trace.

"What happened? How could the body have disappeared?"

"That gust of wind just now was so abnormal!" the officers exclaimed in alarm.

The sheriff immediately stopped these remarks and ordered the cordon to be expanded, prohibiting anyone from approaching within one kilometer of the incident site.

He realized that this was beyond the scope of ordinary police work and that he had to report it to his superiors immediately.

Meanwhile, Anita and her six companions had already returned to the apartment with the remains of the seven canine demons.

They each used their abilities to cut slices of demon flesh, about half a centimeter thick, from those neat incisions, and then burned them.

The mysterious power that had tainted them and killed them was removed. Although each demon's body was reduced by a portion, they could still be considered as seven complete demons.

Just as they finished these preparations, Wu Heng returned to the place.

In fact, he knew everything that had happened, including the mysterious figure who rescued the middle-aged man, who was actually Naoko, whom he had secretly arranged.

Yes, the order for Naoko to save the middle-aged man was entirely at Wu Heng's behest.

He could not allow Lucifer and Satan, his two mortal enemies, to come together because of a common threat; such an alliance would be extremely detrimental to his plans.

In fact, even the fact that the middle-aged man was able to attract the attention of the seven canine demons was the result of Wu Heng's secret manipulation.

In Wu Heng's plan, the three forces of the goat-man devil, Satan, and Lucifer must be completely divided, so that they become enemies and consume each other.

Ideally, we should force them to fight to the death.

What Wu Heng needs to do now is to keep putting pressure on these hell lords, forcing them to descend into the real world at any cost, and even sacrifice some of their own power for it.

Faced with everyone's reports, Wu Heng seemed completely unconcerned: "That middle-aged man is no longer important. Let him go."

He changed the subject: "The most important thing now is to choose a suitable location, get the Altar of Filth, seal the Goat-Man Demon inside, and solve its threat first."

This is what Wu Heng told everyone, but in reality, he had a completely different plan in mind.

If his sole purpose was to seal away the goat-man demon, he could have done it easily long ago; there was no need to complicate matters to such an extent.

According to the rules of this storyline world, when they regain their hellish power, they must return to their own hell; otherwise, they will be forcibly repatriated by the rules. (End of Chapter)
