Chapter 275: The Evil God Summoning Ritual of Blue StarAt the same time.
Earth, Shanghai.
Inside a dimly lit interrogation room, Bai Yi, wearing a patient gown, gritted his teeth as he sat on the interrogation chair, glaring angrily at the two uniformed interrogators across the table.
He had woken up a few days ago, and after regaining consciousness, he knew just as Big Brother Lynn had said, he had indeed returned to his original world.
But who would have known.
Not long after he woke up, he was directly taken into custody here by the Enforcers.
"Why are you arresting me?!" Bai Yi was so angry he was almost in tears.
"Being captured in that terrifying world was one thing, but getting arrested again after coming back! You're just too much!"
Bai Yi was indeed extremely aggrieved.
Because he hadn't even seen his parents once before being confined again.Anyone in this situation would feel deeply wronged.
The two interrogators exchanged a glance, then calmly said, "Kid, it's alright. It's just because of your special experience that we have to handle you with caution."
"This is the Supernatural Investigation Headquarters. No one will harm you. Because you are the only person found so far among the recent large-scale missing persons cases, we need to understand the situation from you."
Bai Yi, red-eyed with grievance, said, "I've already said everything I can. Whether you believe it or not is your own business, it has nothing to do with me."
In the monitoring room.
One high-ranking official after another gazed solemnly at Bai Yi in the interrogation room.
Then, one official said something into a communicator.
The interrogator inside the room pressed his earpiece and nodded. He looked up, calmly extended his hand, and displayed a piece of paper sealed in a plastic bag and a segment of a little finger in front of him.
"Then can you explain the contents of this? And what's the deal with that finger segment? What's recorded here seems to be a summoning ritual for some extremely evil Evil God?"
Bai Yi jolted.
That was precisely the summoning method Big Brother Lynn had given him and a segment of Big Brother's little finger.
Bai Yi's eyes flickered. "That's not any Evil God summoning ritual. It's a method my Big Brother from that world left me to summon him. Big Brother really wanted to come back to this world to see it... I... I promised."
The two interrogators looked at each other, saying deeply,
"The Big Brother you speak of, is he human?"
Bai Yi glared. "Of course he is! Big Brother is definitely..."
He choked.
Then instantly remembered the surging tentacles and eyes on Big Brother's body.
His heart wavered, and he said dazedly, "Probably, yes."
The two interrogators narrowed their eyes. "So, can I understand that he just looks human, but is very likely some kind of monster? And by giving you this summoning ritual, he actually wants to use your hand to make it descend into this world?"
Bai Yi trembled, his gaze somewhat vacant.
The situation back in the Ancient Castle instantly surfaced in his mind.
Indeed.
Big Brother seemed human, yet also didn't seem human, because how could a human possibly grow those terrifying tentacles and arms?
And no matter how you looked at it, the turmoil Big Brother displayed seemed even more terrifying than the monsters he had encountered.
But...
He remembered the look of blessed happiness and that hint of envy and loss in Lynn's eyes when he told him he could return to this world.
"No..."
He whispered.
"Big Brother is not a monster."
The two interrogators immediately looked determined and picked up their pens.
"I might be stupid, I might be cowardly, but some things can't be faked. Big Brother just wants to come home. Maybe this isn't his home, but no matter what, even if just to repay him, I will definitely keep my promise."
He looked up, staring firmly at the two interrogators.
"Unless you lock me up for life, I will definitely summon my Big Brother! I swear!"
He subconsciously clenched his hand. What no one noticed was that a tiny, minuscule speck of minced flesh and bloodstain was smeared between his fingers.
...
The dark meeting room.
Several high-ranking officials sat with grave expressions around the conference table. A projector displayed the paper found on Bai Yi, which recorded some Evil God summoning ritual.
The leading white-haired old man said deeply, "Regarding the Dark World that child spoke of, what are your thoughts?"
A woman sitting on the right side of the table frowned. Her complexion was noticeably paler than those around her, and she gave off an eerie feeling overall.
She looked up, her brow furrowed tightly.
"I don't know if you've heard of this..."
"The Death Realm."
Everyone narrowed their eyes, all looking at her.
That woman took a deep breath, her expression growing even more somber. "This is a taboo among us Spiritual Mediums. We can contact the deceased, but when attempting to contact certain heinous, evil dead, there's a high probability we will touch upon a forbidden barrier."
"A border."
"And without exception, every Spiritual Medium who dared to touch that taboo, to contact the dead beyond that border, ended up going mad and dying, even bringing unimaginable curses and Evil Spirits."
"And the Dark World described by that child... is very similar to descriptions found in certain teachings left behind by my predecessors."
Everyone's brows furrowed.
Because this was the first time they were hearing about such a mysterious and absurd matter.
"You mean..." the leading white-haired old man said gravely, "The place that child fell into is very likely the 'Death Realm' you speak of?"
That woman clenched her hands tightly, her brow deeply furrowed. "Yes, because a similar case occurred in a small town decades ago."
"A fire broke out in a school in that town at the time, burning over thirty students and teachers to death. Because it involved supernatural phenomena, several exorcists and Spiritual Mediums went to the scene back then."
"And then?" the white-haired elder asked gravely.
That woman took a deep breath, saying profoundly,
"After the fire, the school was sealed off and abandoned. But for a long time afterward, paranormal incidents frequently occurred in that school. People often reported that the school building was still burning, and they could hear screams and cries for help from inside."
"But suddenly, one day, when that fire paranormally reappeared, the entire school building collapsed and fell into a rift, then vanished from this world forever."
Her expression grew even more solemn.
"My teacher, who went to investigate the incident at the time, was present."
The atmosphere around grew oppressive, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
After a long while.
The leading white-haired elder said seriously, "Is there any way to investigate that place?"
That woman shook her head, smiling bitterly. "Impossible, sir. Because that place is hell, it's the Death Realm. It's a taboo even the most powerful Spiritual Mediums dare not touch."
The white-haired old man frowned. "If what that child says is true, then I strongly suspect that the numerous missing persons cases over the past few months might all be related to that world."
"Perhaps they really did vanish, dragged into the Death Realm you speak of by something."
Everyone felt waves of absurdity and unreality.
Especially when someone tells you that beyond the world you live in, hell truly exists, and Evil Spirits, ghosts, Evil Gods, and monsters are no longer just urban legends or curiosities.
This really isn't something one can accept immediately.
That woman looked up, gazing at the image on the screen, saying deeply, "Sir, no matter what, I suggest immediately destroying the summoning ritual recorded on that paper. Regardless of whether the method is real or not, it absolutely must not be circulated!"
"If someone actually successfully performs the ritual according to that method, we might face unimaginable Calamity!"
