Chapter 36 36. The Mysterious Firebearer

"Am I dreaming?"

Wang Chengzhi hurriedly pinched his arm, and the pain was clearly transmitted back to his head, which frightened him.

This is not a dream!

A huge black shadow sat on the throne, tapping with slender and dry fingers.

Illusions came like a tide, and time and space rotated. Wang Chengzhi witnessed the void swallowing the sun from a third-party perspective, and his tragic death at the hands of the black-robed jailer. He was so scared that his face turned pale.

"Big... Boss, is this true?"

The black shadow laughed hoarsely, "Let me calculate, you are less than a month away from death."

Wang Chengzhi was shocked and came to his senses. The terrible scene in the corridor of the unit building was placed in a box like a miniature model as the perspective went away.

The surrounding blood-red light lit up, and the shadow demon appeared opposite him.

"Boy, do you want to live?"

Wang Chengzhi swallowed his breath and felt a little bad. How could this scene be like a demon bewitching mortals?

But thinking of everything he had just seen, he nodded slowly.

The shadows around the Shadow Demon laughed and flew towards Wang Chengzhi, surrounding him, as if looking at him.

The Shadow Demon said, "I inherited the flame of the previous era, and used shadows to protect the glory of the flame."

"The undead of the new era, it's time for you to take over this flame."

The dry and cold knuckles stretched out, the palm was bony, and the veins were wriggling.

On this terrible palm, a ball of flame illuminated the darkness and surrounded Wang Chengzhi's body with warmth.

"From today on, you will be the second fire bearer."

Wang Chengzhi hurriedly asked, "Who else is ahead?"

He was engulfed by the flames before he could respond, and woke up in the room.

The night outside the window was dim and silent, and it was already late at night.

"Was it a nightmare just now?" Wang Chengzhi touched his cheek, which was still warm from the flames.

He looked down and saw a bead that looked like an eye staring at him. He was so frightened that he almost threw it out.

"That person left it for me?"

"It seems that he called me the Fire Bearer. Could it be that my life trajectory is about to change and I will embark on the road of being the protagonist?"

Thinking of this, the fear gradually receded. Wang Chengzhi was delighted and began to explore the use of the soul bead.

Su Hong watched him in the shadow and smiled.

If Wang Chengzhi could survive the end of the world, with the terrifying existence in his body, he might become a strong man among the undead after joining the undead forces.

But before these happened, he had become a glorious fire bearer working for him.

Leaving the shadow attendant to watch over Wang Chengzhi, Su Hong lay back on the bed and fell asleep.

The next morning, Su Hong took a look at Wang Chengzhi's situation. This guy didn't sleep all night last night and just studied the soul bead.

After the excitement faded, he fell asleep again.

In fact, Su Hong had no expectations for Wang Chengzhi to master the Soul Orb. After all, disaster items cannot be used by just anyone, and the compatibility issue must be considered.

But surprisingly, the Soul Orb, which had no reaction at first, turned into a faint light and drilled into his eyes after Wang Chengzhi fell asleep, and began to take effect.

Su Hong was thoughtful. It seems that the compatibility between the undead and the disaster items is not immutable, but certain conditions need to be met.

Putting Wang Chengzhi behind his mind, Su Hong sat at the dining table, eating breakfast while browsing the news. Countless information slipped, and a strange piece of news came into his eyes-serial killings reappeared! The number of victims reached twelve, and the rich man in Longshan Villa was brutally killed at home...

He calmly drank a sip of hot water, and his face did not change.

In Zhou Hong's memory, the serial killings in Sheng City were related to the minions of the divergence.

Not only that, Li Jian will also appear at Longshan Villa today.

Today is a good time to contact the Protz family in the present world.

...

Shangyun District, Longshan Villa.

As a famous high-end residential area in Sheng City, Longshan Villa faces Shengjiang River and is surrounded by green willows and flowers. It is usually peaceful and tranquil. Almost all the wealthy people in Sheng City have a villa here.

But today, the sirens echoed harshly, breaking the tranquility of the community.

In front of the gate of a villa near the Shengjiang River, the police pulled up a white cordon and blocked the villa and the nearby road section.

Not long after, a matte black van passed through layers of cordons and stopped smoothly on the road section in front of the villa gate.

The car door opened, black tactical boots landed, and the man came out in a combat uniform, with a holster and a long strip covered with black cloth on his waist.

"Officer Li, thank you for your trouble." The police came over.

Unlike them, the man in front of them came from the Special Criminal Investigation Team. It is said that there are some capable people in it, and the efficiency of solving criminal cases is extremely high.

Even the director has to be polite to these special police officers, and they dare not neglect them.

Li Jian looked at the villa in front of him and could faintly feel an ominous atmosphere emanating from it, which made him frown.

He put his hand on the long black cloth and asked, "What's the situation inside?"

The police hurriedly opened the folder, "There are three dead people, namely Zhang Dinghua, the boss of the listed company Shengkang Pharmaceutical, his wife Zhou Qiurong and nanny Chen Lan."

"After preliminary identification, the modus operandi of this case is exactly the same as that of the landlord in Qinghai District. The deceased is covered in blood and flesh, with incomplete skin and missing internal organs, as if they were bitten clean by something."

"The murderer has not been identified yet, and it is not ruled out that it is a copycat murder."

Li Jian fell into deep thought. After a while, he took a step and walked inside, "You stay outside to guard, I will go in to investigate."

"Okay."

Li Jian stepped into the door, took off the black cloth, revealing the plain steel scabbard. He pressed his palm on the hilt, and the bronze ring on his ring finger faintly emitted blood light, lingering around the scabbard.

After all the personnel evacuated the villa, he walked into the hall and saw the body of a man lying on the ground.

Five or six hours have passed since the death of the villa owner. The blood on the ground has almost dried up. The body is black and red, with bent hand bones and bite marks all over the body. No piece of skin is intact.

What was even more disgusting was that the corpse had a big hole in its abdomen, and the ribs pierced through the flesh and blood, and the inside was empty. Only the spine and the accumulated plasma could be seen, like a flesh and blood cup with residual wine.

It made people feel physically uncomfortable and nauseous.

Li Jian's face was a little ugly. Although he had dealt with no less than four similar incidents, he still felt disgusted subconsciously.

"Damn divergent minions."

He drew out his long sword, passed over the body of the man of the villa, and explored the entire villa, and found the bodies of the hostess and the nanny in the corridor.

The two seemed to have been dragged by monsters before they died, and the blood stains dyed the entire corridor red. The bodies were already cold, and the way they died was no different from Zhang Dinghua.

Li Jian stood up and sighed slightly. If nothing unexpected happened, the divergent minions would be allowed to go unpunished again this time.

"Hehe, human, you seem to be very troubled." A snickering sounded from the dark part of the room.

Li Jian was shocked, blood mist surging in his body, and the heart of the giant was almost released.

He pointed his sword at the dark corner of the corridor and shouted: "Who is there!"

"Are you talking to me?"

The shadow spread out, making the corridor, which was originally bright, dim.
