120: Chapter 120 Mr. Chen has found the Dark Alliance's lair?!
"Th-that's not... Mr. Chen, is it?!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the other two Yellow-robed members shuddered and hurriedly retreated.
"Attack him!" one of them shouted sternly, magic surging beneath his robe.
Receiving the order, the Demonic Beast in the corner had its crimson eyes flare with ferocious light as it immediately charged wildly toward Lin Fan.
At the same time, the two Yellow-robed members also began to cast spells.
"Are you crazy? Mr. Chen is a high-risk target; we should run as soon as we see him!"
The last Yellow-robed member was scared out of his wits. Not waiting for his companions, he turned and fled.
How could Lin Fan let him get away?
A purple light flashed in his eyes, and purple stars blossomed around him.
"Thunder Strike."
Two Star Patterns formed instantly above his head.
A slender bolt of purple lightning tore through the air, shooting toward the fleeing Yellow-robed member.
"Boom!"
The lightning struck his back.
The man hadn't even run five steps before letting out a short, sharp scream. He collapsed to the ground, his body emitting black smoke, already dead.
At the same time, the Demonic Beast rushed to the front of Lin Fan, its long arms and sharp claws swinging down fiercely.
Lin Fan was already familiar with the Demonic Beast's Move. He calmly grabbed its wrist.
With a sudden yank, he backhanded it hard across the face.
The force of this slap was so great that it directly snapped the Demonic Beast's neck, leaving its head lolling to one side as it died on the spot.
Dead silence. The captives bound by iron chains, the two Yellow-robed members, and the two burly men all froze in place, not daring to breathe.
Everything happened too fast—so fast that they hadn't even seen his movements clearly.
Lin Fan casually tossed the Demonic Beast's corpse aside, his gaze falling back onto the others.
Everyone swept by his gaze shuddered, freezing in place and not knowing what to do.
Lin Fan couldn't be bothered to care about their feelings.
"Swish!" He vanished like a ghost.
The next second, he appeared beside the two Yellow-robed members.
Their eyes couldn't keep up with his speed at all.
The two Yellow-robed members were in a state of Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering, and without even a chance to resist, they felt their bodies lift into the air as they were thrown out.
"Go down for a swim." Mr. Chen's hoarse voice rang in their ears.
The two were stunned for a moment, looking down.
"..." Below was the very pool of boiling blood!
"Splash! Splash!" With two loud bangs, the two smashed heavily into the pool and sank instantly.
It was as if an invisible suction force was dragging them to the bottom of the pool.
The same scene as before replayed: the Star Array lit up, and the figures in the pool began to twist and deform.
This scene terrified the two burly men and the captives out of their wits.
The two burly men no longer dared to think; they turned and ran.
But if even a Tier 2 Mage couldn't escape, how could ordinary people like them possibly get away?
"Psychokinesis." Lin Fan spoke softly, a Star Array unfolding around him.
Beneath his mask, his eyes lit up with a silvery halo as he looked at the two running burly men.
The next second, their bodies suddenly froze and were lifted off the ground by thin air.
Lin Fan pulled them back, suspending them above the blood pool.
Their faces were deathly pale as they wept and begged for mercy.
Their voices were shrill, terrifying the captives.
Lin Fan didn't let them scream for long. He simply let go, throwing the two into the pool.
"I am also letting you atone for your sins; you should be grateful." This sentence was exactly what one of them had just said to the shirtless man earlier.
The last trace of color faded from their faces as they were completely swallowed by the red liquid in the pool.
Lin Fan stood in place like a statue, quietly watching the ritual complete, watching the pool water boil, and watching the four people in the pool.
Changing from humans completely into Demonic Beasts.
A few seconds later, four Demonic Beasts leaped out of the blood pool and landed at the edge.
They retained their twisted human faces, their expressions ferocious and stiff.
Lin Fan guessed that this ritual must have been extremely painful for them to maintain such expressions even after death.
The Star Array in the pool or the red liquid was the source of the pain.
For some reason, after these four Demonic Beasts were born, no control mark appeared on Lin Fan.
In other words, they were ownerless and not controlled by anyone.
Lin Fan didn't care. He had no interest in keeping Demonic Beasts anyway.
Since they were ownerless, they were no different from wild Demonic Beasts.
The four Demonic Beasts' crimson eyes were filled with ferocity. A thick Killing Intent washed over them as they charged toward Lin Fan and the six captives.
Their long arms stretched out, revealing yellow, sharp fangs in their mouths.
Watching these hideous monsters pounce, the conscious captives screamed in terror, but were bound by iron chains and unable to Move.
They could only close their eyes in despair.
"Space Bullet." Lin Fan chanted softly. A shrill whistle tore through the air.
The next second, the bodies of the Demonic Beasts in mid-air were pierced one after another by invisible bullets, blood spurting out.
"Thud!" The Demonic Beasts fell heavily to the ground, their bodies covered in bloody holes, blood spreading rapidly as they completely lost their breath.
The captives looked at the corpses on the ground, trembling. They no longer screamed, just shaking all over from fear.
Seeing Lin Fan walk toward them, they hurriedly turned their heads, their eyes filled with fear.
This person had easily killed the demons that tortured them, but they didn't know what his purpose was.
Lin Fan stopped. Looking down at the six people sitting on the ground, his voice was calm:
"What is your relationship with the Dark Alliance?"
The conscious ones shuddered, too scared to speak.
"Speak." Lightning crackled at Lin Fan's fingertips.
"If you don't speak, you will die just like them."
Everyone trembled and immediately scrambled to speak.
It turned out they were all innocent ordinary people. They had just been grabbed and brought here because they offended the Dark Alliance.
Some didn't know the other party was from the Dark Alliance when they borrowed money, and were abducted when they couldn't pay it back;
Some had a verbal altercation with Alliance members and were kidnapped that very night;
A young girl had refused the harassment of a middle-aged man, not knowing he was an Alliance member; she was forcibly brought here, repeatedly abused, and was about to be thrown into the pool.
One of them recognized the man who had just been thrown into the pool. He told Lin Fan that the man had been abducted simply because he tried to stop an Alliance member from harassing his young daughter.
Although the other party was a Mage, that father had shown no fear and resisted head-on to protect his daughter. That same day, the father went missing.
After listening to everyone's accounts, Lin Fan's inner anger burned fiercely.
He thought he knew enough about the filth of the Dark Alliance, but only now did he realize they were even more rotten than he had imagined.
For reasons like these, they grabbed people and refined them into Demonic Beasts; could there be anything more unreasonable than this?
Even if they owed money, confiscating assets or working to pay off the debt should have been enough. Just because they couldn't pay back the money, did they deserve to become monsters?
If they had money, who would come to borrow it?
However, now was not the time to think about these things. What Lin Fan had to do was kill every single Dark Alliance member in this underground space, leaving none alive.
And he was about to make his Move. Without further ado, Lin Fan waved his hand, and surging magic poured out, causing the iron chains binding everyone to snap instantly.
