Chapter 292: Aren't the slippery ones adorable?Just as expected!
Creatures summoned in this way, without exception, are terrifying beings of extreme chaotic evil.
Such beings do not reason at all. They only recognize offerings. As long as your sacrifice pleases them, as long as it satisfies them, they do not mind coming into this world to do things that give them pleasure.
Like slaughter!
“Isn’t this the forbidden knowledge we’ve been seeking all along?!”
He stared at his hands with a sick, fanatical look.
Now they also possessed that summoning ritual. If this twisted being could truly be pleased, then the Flesh and Blood Cult’s power would swell once more!
An unbearably fervent idea immediately flared in his mind.
“Return!”
He suddenly looked up, his gaze darkening as he glared at them, and said,“Continue to finish your task. Bring Bai Yi back to me. No one is allowed to leave here until the task is completed.”
At those words, the white-robed female ghost’s expression changed drastically.
Before she could speak, Kress’s face split into an eerie smile. He looked at her intently and said,
“You two are different from those demons and monsters. You are my god’s most loyal devotees. As long as you complete this mission, I can return your bone anchors to you, grant you the freedom you desire…”
“But if I see you falter, then you will bear the consequences yourselves.”
The white-robed female ghost and the shadow both trembled through their bodies.
They gritted their teeth against the resentment in their eyes, their gazes flickering wildly, but under that sanguine smile they dared not act presumptuously.
Because the bone anchors were their foundation.
If they were destroyed, they would become rootless wandering ghosts, and their souls would gradually dissipate.
“Yes, Lord!”
The white-robed female ghost and the shadow bit their lips and immediately turned, once again melting into the darkness behind them.
The innumerable evil spirits and monsters were also forced to change course and once more set off.
Watching them depart, a fanatical grin spread across Kress’s face.
“Lord, those low-level remnant souls and crawlers couldn’t possibly be rivals for that twisted being…”
A black-robed man behind him said anxiously.
Kress laughed with fervor and said, “Of course I know that. I just want to see how strong that Hell-born monster really is, how chaotic it truly is!”
“If it truly is an unimaginably evil existence, then next time we can fully please that lord, offering more unclean blood to call it down!”
“Compared to those stubborn, nauseating humans, I think that lord might prefer our service more.”
But he knew.
This time it would not work.
Because that being had feasted on the flesh-and-blood offerings provided by Bai Yi and the people here.
That was equivalent to signing a temporary pact.
But next time, things would be different!
He could hardly wait to see the stunned, fearful expressions on the faces of the Supernatural Administration when that being appeared before them as an enemy!
Hehehehe—

[Ping! Kress’ Excitement +10]
With the system notifications ringing in his ears, Lynn raised an eyebrow and glanced around the deepest part of the dark corridor.
What’s going on?!
Was something watching him?
Why on earth did some creature suddenly get excited about him? Was it because he’s too handsome, and it developed some pathological urge to hump him?
Lynn decisively tossed that notification out of his head.
“So that’s it.” Lynn returned to himself, his gaze calm as he looked at Bai Yi and the exorcists sitting across from him, and said,
“So this is indeed Earth, and the reason you were hunted by so many monsters is because Bai Yi’s return made that cult set its sights on him?”
Bai Yi nodded vigorously, looking wronged like a Little Girl.
The medium glanced at Lynn with nervous fear;
her innate sensitivity to evil spirits and yin energy made her feel an intense unease toward this man from Hell.
“Basically that’s it. Their attack came too quickly. We couldn’t react in time and they invaded the Administration.”
“So we had no choice but to have Bai Yi… summon… you.”
They swallowed and, forcing down their terror, spoke in a tone that dared not show any offense.
Lynn smiled slightly, his face softening into a benevolent expression.
“Correct choice.”
He reached out to them with an absurd air of friendliness.
“So don’t be afraid, and don’t be stiff! We’re all human! We’re all descendants of Yan and Huang!”
“To be honest, I’ve been down there for so many years, dealing every day with those sewn-together things, evil ghosts, moving heads and the like. If it weren’t for meeting Bai Yi, I’d almost forget I’m still a living person! Hahahahaha!”
His bursts of joyful laughter sent shivers from the soles of everyone’s feet up to their hair.
They trembled as if frozen, then shakily extended their hands and said, “R-really…?”
Cold sweat drenched their backs.
Are they really all descendants of Yan and Huang?
Could something strange have slipped in?
Maybe he’s no longer human—he only thinks he is, and judging by his abnormalities and mutations, he’s probably long since drifting away from humanity!
In short,
he still seemed to believe himself to be a proper human like them — meaning this Big Brother, no matter how terrifying, at least stood on humanity’s side!
“May I ask…” Yang Ke’s eyes widened. He swallowed and asked, “Those tentacles on your body are…”
He was an exorcist.
In his training, creatures covered in tentacles were inevitably terrifying demonic presences.
So he was very concerned.
Hearing the question, Lynn paused, then smiled kindly and said, “Well…”
“It’s just a form of power from the Dark World. You know, down there is Hell;
aside from curses, evil spirits, flesh-and-blood and cursed arts, there aren’t really proper self-defense methods.”
“So don’t be scared. Even tentacles are made from human flesh. Once you get used to them, you’ll find them quite endearing.”
Everyone went blank.
E-endearing?!
Can that word really be used to describe this?!
Lynn’s mouth tilted, and he slapped his shoulder. One by one, slippery tentacles pierced out from his shoulders, slithering down like snakes and splashing to the ground in front of Yang Ke.
“Feel them.” Lynn said amiably, “Aren’t they so smooth and lovable?”
