Chapter 194 Kill them all
Gathering place No. 73, dungeon prison.

Li Hao fell down in the dirty cell, his messy hair covering his face, his body covered with wounds, and the barb of the chain pierced his scapula, locking him in place.

The blood in the wound had long dried up. The powerful strength of the eighth-level transcendent could not be exerted at all while he was seriously injured. He could only barely maintain a glimmer of life.

Li Hao was the only one in the entire dungeon.

The reason is very simple. In the end-time environment with tight supplies, the gathering place simply does not have any extra resources to feed the prisoners. Even food that is barely enough to sustain life will attract scramble from the outside world.

In this case, the only people who could be thrown into prison were those high-ranking officials of the gathering place who had committed serious crimes but could not be easily killed because of their extraordinary status.

At the beginning, Li Hao sat firmly on the throne of the leader of the gathering place after clearing out several other forces in the gathering place. He also presided over the construction of this dungeon and imprisoned many high-level officials who had taken the wrong side.

However, he never expected that the last guest of this dungeon would be Li Hao himself, which made him feel that the world is unpredictable.

At this moment, the door of the dungeon slowly opened, and a tall figure strode into the prison. Behind him, two sixth-level transcendents followed closely as guards.

"Chief Li, long time no see!"

A mocking laugh sounded in the dungeon. Li Hao forced himself to open his eyes. He glanced at the person who spoke and the two extraordinary people behind him, then closed his eyes again, ignoring them completely.

“After being imprisoned in the dungeon for two months, Chief Li is still as proud as ever, worthy of being the number one figure in our gathering place No. 73.

Of course, it was once.”

The door of the cell was opened, and a tall figure squatted in front of Li Hao and whispered:
"When Chief Li was in power, he never looked at me straight in the eye. Did Chief Li ever think of today?"

Li Hao narrowed his eyes and responded in a lazy tone:

"Yu Mingyu, I said one thing wrong."

"Oh?"

"I won't even look at you now."

The smile on Yu Mingyu's face disappeared instantly, and he kicked Li Hao in the chest.

"Oh!"

The tremendous force smashed Li Hao against the wall. The chain that pierced his scapula tore the wound again, and blood quickly dyed the prison uniform red.

Yu Mingyu looked at Li Hao coldly: "If you don't accept my toast, I'll punish you!"

Li Hao took a few deep breaths and forced down the blood in his throat. Although he looked embarrassed, he still smiled and said:
"Hahaha! I'm anxious!"

Yu Mingyu was furious and was about to attack again but was stopped by the sixth-level transcendent who looked like a guard behind him.

"Stop fighting, business is more important!"

Although Yu Mingyu was the leader in terms of status, the sixth-order transcendent spoke in a very impolite manner, even with a commanding tone.

Yu Mingyu's face turned pale, but he didn't continue to attack. Instead, he asked Li Hao coldly:
"Does the escaped underworld messenger have any other means? Is he able to contact the underworld?"

When Li Hao heard this, he did not answer, but nodded thoughtfully.

"So that's it."

After saying this, the smile on his face became even brighter.

Yu Mingyu was so angry that a sixth-level transcendent beside him punched Li Hao without hesitation.

The huge roar made the entire dungeon tremble, and the scorching flames even burned through the concrete cell, turning into large pieces of lava that kept dripping beside Li Hao.

The scorching heat caused Li Hao's tattered prison uniform to gradually ignite sparks, and his messy hair kept curling and emitting a burnt smell.

Faced with the imminent threat of death, Li Hao didn't care at all. Instead, he looked up and stared at the sixth-level transcendent who made the move.

"Don't you dare kill me."

“More than three months ago, when the Messenger left Gathering Place No. 73, you tried to attack me, but in the end, you didn’t dare to attack me easily because you were worried about the Messenger and the underworld behind him.

As the envoy gradually disappeared, you supported this waste and locked me in this dungeon in the name of internal struggle in the territory.

As long as the envoy is alive, you will have to support me, and you are even afraid that I will die suddenly and have no explanation at all."

Having said that, Li Hao turned his body to the side and fell directly into the lava pool beside him.

Under normal circumstances, an eighth-level transcendent can easily withstand the high temperature of magma with his body alone without using his extraordinary abilities.

But Li Hao had already been imprisoned in the dungeon and tortured for two months. He was extremely weak. Diving into the lava was no different from seeking death.

A trace of fear flashed in the eyes of the sixth-level transcendent who took action. He grabbed Li Hao who was about to fall and threw him aside.

"Madman! You are such a madman!"

Li Hao laughed out loud, but his damaged internal organs quickly turned the laughter into violent coughs, and his blood was mixed with organ fragments.

In the prison, three people looked at Li Hao with ugly expressions.

According to the orders from above, they must ensure that Li Hao cannot die.

But Li Hao's unscrupulous ridicule made them not want to provide any help at all.

After a violent cough that seemed to cough out all his internal organs, Li Hao looked at them with contempt and said, "Since the interrogation last month, you haven't been to the dungeon for a whole month.

This time, not only was their attitude so urgent, but they were also so timid. Let me guess what happened?"

As he spoke, a strange smile appeared on Li Hao's lips.

"If nothing unexpected happens, it is the envoy who has returned, and he has brought with him a large army from the underworld.

You got the news, but we are too far away to confirm its authenticity, so you want to confirm the news through me?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone, including Yu Mingyu, showed deep fear on their faces.

It is not only aimed at Li Hao, who can see through people's hearts, but more at the legendary messenger from the underworld behind Li Hao.

In fact, the legend about the underworld had spread to Gathering Place No. 73 more than a month ago, but Li Hao had just been overthrown at that time, and the news was unclear, so the various forces did not pay much attention to it.

But as time went by, the news about the arrival of the underworld and the ghost soldiers passing through the border to slaughter zombies spread more and more widely, and it has reached a very evil level.

Some say that the army of the underworld can slaughter a ruined city of millions of zombies in one day, others say that the army of the underworld can cross several small towns and hunt down 100,000 zombies in half an hour, and even the ninth-level zombie king can be easily killed.

Although everyone is convinced that most of the news is probably fake, even if only one or two are true, it is enough to make people feel scared.

Taking a deep breath, Yu Mingyu said sternly:

"Do you really think that a mere messenger from the underworld can save you?
He was scared away by so many powerful people in the past. Even if he returns with an army of ghost soldiers now, his strength is at best that of a ninth-level transcendent.

In the entire gathering place No. 73 alone, there are as many as two ninth-level extraordinary beings who stayed behind secretly to try to capture the messenger of the underworld. In the major gathering places, there are more than ten ninth-level extraordinary beings who are paying attention to this matter, and there are even more powerful tenth-level and eleventh-level extraordinary beings!
Can he overpower everyone with his own strength?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a shocking roar suddenly sounded outside the dungeon.

There seemed to be an invisible pressure in the void that instantly enveloped the entire No. 73, and then boundless darkness seemed to swallow up the light above the sky. Through the dungeon window, one could only see the pitch-black outside world.

Yu Mingyu was startled and asked quickly:
"In the end what happened?"

Before the two sixth-level transcendents could contact the outside world, the world suddenly seemed to be still for a moment, and the movements of the two sixth-level transcendents stopped.

Yu Mingyu frowned and asked, "What are you doing?"

He stretched out his right hand and patted the shoulder of one of the sixth-level transcendents. The next second, a red crack slowly spread, and the front half of the sixth-level transcendent fell forward with a bang.

This powerful sixth-order transcendent was unexpectedly cut in half vertically without a sound. The cut was as smooth as a mirror, and the beating heart, wriggling lungs, and crisscrossing blood vessels were clearly visible.

Blood gushed out, forming eerie blood flowers on the cell floor, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

Yu Mingyu paused, he looked at the other person with wide eyes, only to see that the other person's body was also slowly split into two halves in the middle.

Two powerful men who were considered to be the best in the entire gathering place died quietly and completely.

Only Li Hao, who was sitting on the ground, showed no fear and whispered:
"he came!"

The next second, the entire dungeon seemed to be split in two by an invisible blade of space, and the scene of the outside world finally appeared in the collapsed space.

More than three months ago, hundreds of powerful men gathered in the middle level of gathering place No. 73, among whom there were as many as thirteen powerful men who had reached the ninth level. They all wanted to seize the inheritance from the messenger of the underworld.

Without anyone knowing, they occupied the entire Gathering No. 73 and its surrounding areas and controlled everyone in an attempt to track the messenger from the underworld.

However, as the messenger from the underworld disappeared, most of these powerful people left, leaving only two ninth-level and dozens of fourth to eighth-level extraordinary people to control the situation and try to wait and see.

And today, they finally got the result.

But it was not until Lu Yan took action that they realized that what they were waiting for was not a rabbit, but Godzilla in rabbit skin.

Above the sky, thousands of ghost soldiers formed a large formation, using the Yin wind and the dark fire to smelt the ninth-level transcendents. The painful wails could be heard clearly even in the dungeon.

In the gathering place, a large number of powerful extraordinary people fled for their lives in panic, but they were powerless to resist under the net formed by the soul-catching rope.

This is a one-sided massacre!

Yu Mingyu could no longer suppress the fear in his heart. He tried to escape in panic, but before he took two steps he bumped into a figure head-on.

"Pfft!"

He looked up suddenly and found that it was Xu Kuan, one of the ninth-level transcendents who was in charge of the gathering place.

At this moment, Xu Kuan had long lost his former arrogance, and his whole body was covered with scars deep enough to see the bones. The golden body magical power, which was known as the best defense, could not block those wounds at all.

"Master Xu, you are here for..."

Yu Mingyu opened his mouth subconsciously, but suddenly found that Xu Kuan in front of him seemed a little different from usual.

That majestic face now had a stiff and weird smile, and an imperceptible scratch on the neck slowly spread.

The next second, a round head fell from Xu Kuan's head, and the cross-section of the neck was as smooth as a mirror.

At the same time, the shrill wailing in the sky also stopped abruptly.

In this gray sky, only one person walked slowly into the cell holding a soul flag, and a careless voice slowly sounded:
"The third."
