Purgatory Artist-Chapter 88: Hunt

The sky was plunged into complete darkness.

Darkness enveloped Dark MistTown.

Lines of burning text appeared from the void of space:

[Attention!]

[Space-time has changed, the realm of Death has overlapped with the current world]

Updat𝓮d fr𝙤m ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com.

[Everything is affected by the Law of the world: 'Death Spread']

[Note: The entire Realm of Life is under the influence of the world of Death, it is best that you remain within the town's range, otherwise, there is a high chance that you will be sucked into the world of Death by 'Death Spread', unable to return]

The world of Death has arrived!

Liu Ping pushed open the door of the church and looked outside.

Only to see that on top of the town's metal walls, various heavy weaponry had already been prepared.

The combatants were already in formation on top of the walls, cautiously observing the dark wilderness.

In the middle of the town.

A fire was lit.

The leader of the group was sitting in front of the fire, constantly manipulating the screen in front of him.

Following his movements, the metal modules that had already been set up in the town began to slowly rise up like houses.

A few people wearing robes walked into the houses, busily doing something.

Liu Ping looked at it for a while, then found that he couldn't understand it at all.

"How interesting ..." he muttered.

"Very well, the heavy artillery team is ready to fill up" the leader ordered.

"Everything is ready." Several voices came from the screen.

"Mobile Mech team in position"

"In position."

"All Magicians in position."

"Ready, ready to attack at any time"

"Open the Astral Passage, I'm ready"

"Yes"

The leader took out a glowing rock from his chest and placed it on the ground.

As soon as the rock was placed on the ground, countless glowing lines appeared, all of which connected to form a complex and deep diamond shape.

He turned to look at Liu Ping and smiled: "This is our final trump card, let's hope we don't have to use it"

Liu Ping glanced at the rock and asked: "Do you need my help?"

"You don't need to fight for now, in case an oppressive enemy appears, you can act" the leader replied.

Oppressive.

On one hand, it was referring to extremely powerful enemies.

On the other hand, it was referring to oppressive laws.

Normal Professionists wouldn't be able to fight against Card users.

"Right, do you have any healing Professions or methods? I'm a bit wounded, I need treatment "Liu Ping said.

"Healing Professions? That's too rare, but we have this "

The team leader tossed over an iron bottle.

Liu Ping took a look and saw a line of words written on the bottle.

"Temporary self-healing spray."

He opened the bottle cap and took a whiff. Frowning, he said, "This is a stimulant."

"That's right. As long as we can survive, everything will naturally be dealt with when we return to the company" the team leader said.

Liu Ping thought about it and decided to keep the bottle.

"Thanks. I'll take a break then. You can call me anytime."

He opened the door of the church and went inside. He crossed the aisle into the transept and sat down at the Mending Table.

Yana said, "This food is used to fill one's stomach and recover one's strength. Its healing power is negligible. You can't count on it."

"It's good that I can recover a little. Besides, I'm really hungry" Liu Ping said.

He picked up a bowl of meat soup and drank it all in a few mouthfuls. He then took some milk and fruits and finished them quickly.

"Do you eat?" he asked Yana.

"No" Yana said.

Liu Ping stood up and started to move his body.

When he was on the city wall, he used a few effective healing spells and successfully made the pain in his meridians disappear.

But no matter how powerful a healing spell is, it still requires the combination of pills and spirit food to make a quick recovery.

It was impossible to achieve this with just Spells.

His meridians are still sore and uncomfortable. He can't use his full strength at all.

"Yana, will those hyenas really wait until tomorrow morning to come?"

"Yes."

"How do you know?"

"Dark Mist Town is too big. It's extremely easy to attract monsters from the world of death at night. You'll also be trapped in a hidden space-time. Do you think they'll come looking for death?"

"That's true."

Liu Ping suddenly had a thought. He got up and walked out of the church, all the way to the temporary command center.

"What happened?" he asked.

"Look at the screen." the team leader said.

Liu Ping looked at the screen. The holographic image showed a group of glowing hounds chasing after two people in Daoist robes and cultivator armor.

Cultivators!

Liu Ping felt a bit strange.

Aren't cultivators all trapped in a hidden space-time?

How did they manage to escape and get chased by strange hounds?

"Can you zoom in on the image again?

I want to see what those two people look like. "

Liu Ping asked.

"They're too far away, we don't dare to get close. This is the limit." the team leader said.

"That's not all, look at these places." the Artist said.

He quickly tapped on the image a few times, displaying 7-8 images side by side.

On each of the images, there was a group of people riding motorcycles, driving cars, or Mechs, chasing after the two cultivators.

"They're vagrants of the wilderness, they're really brave. No, this is a group of hyenas!"

The team leader's expression changed, tapping on the screen again and again, saying: "Liu Ping, I think we should stay here and not leave. No matter what they do, it has nothing to do with Dark Mist Town. What do you think?"

There was no response from behind.

The party leader turned around to see that Liu Ping was already running towards the church.

Dong!

The church's door was slammed shut.

Liu Ping walked all the way to the innermost side hall, casually drew his Snow Shadow Saberand started drawing on the ground.

His movements were quick and decisive, as if he didn't need to think too much when he drew his blade, he quickly drew runes one after another.

In just a short moment.

Countless runes appeared on the ground, connecting to form a formation and let out a soft resonating sound.

Liu Ping casually took out a few spirit stones and embedded them into the various corners of the array formation.

All the runes flashed once, releasing an endless amount of light.

"Activate!" Liu Ping lightly shouted.

In the blink of an eye, the spiritual light entered the formation and was completely withdrawn.

The formation was complete!

"Using spirit energy like that will only worsen your wounds" Yana sighed.

"It's fine, I can handle it"

Liu Ping wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, put his blade away, turned around and left.

...

The wilderness.

Liu Ping crouched on top of a pile of rocks, a contemplative look on his face.

"Oi, it's not good for you to fight right now, it's too dangerous for you to come out" Yana asked.

"Those cultivators are from the same world as me, yet they were able to appear in the Dead Wilderness, I have to find out what exactly happened" Liu Ping said.

"But in your current state, I'm afraid ..."

"I won't do anything stupid, let's wait and see"

"What do you mean? Those hyenas are very cautious, you might be discovered if you're not careful "Yana said.

"According to the image I saw just now, a few inconspicuous lackeys will pass by here very soon"

Saying so, Liu Ping tapped his Inventory Bag and took out a bunch of spirit stones.

He carefully placed the spirit stones deep inside the pile of rocks, then took out a Card from the void of space.

Occultism Card: Rock of Nothingness.

"Yana, what do you think is inside this bunch of spirit stones?"

"Inside a bunch of spirit stones? There shouldn't be anything else "

"I think so too"

Luo Ping stood on top of the spirit stones and then threw the Card out.

Bam!

With a light sound, lines of burning text quickly appeared in the void of space:

[You've used the Card: Rock of Nothingness]

[Card effect: When you release this card, you will become something that should be in the current environment, immediately appearing in the current environment until you cancel it (once per hour)]

[You turned into a spirit stone and immediately appeared in a handful of spirit stones until you took the initiative to cancel]

Liu Ping instantly disappeared from the spot.

In the depths of the pile of rocks, a spirit stone suddenly appeared among the pile of spirit stones.

It was exactly the same as any other spirit stone.

Time passed.

The roar of a motorcycle could be heard from afar. The sound was getting louder and louder as it approached the pile of rocks quickly.

"Wait a minute."

A voice sounded.

"What? We can't stop now. If we lose the target, we'll be done for. "

"I know, but ..."

A hand reached out and pushed aside the pile of rocks, revealing the Spirit Stones that were hidden inside.

Noisy voices immediately rang out.

"Spirit stones!"

"I'm rich, haha!"

"Brother, your eyes are sharp. I didn't see anything at all."

The voice from before replied with a smile: "I saw a faint glow coming from this place from afar, and sure enough, there was something here"

The spirit stones were put into the person's bag and carefully zipped up.

"Let's go quickly. If we lose the target, boss will punish us"

"Let's go!"

The roar of the motorcycle resounded again. They were moving at top speed to catch up!
