Chapter 212 Are There Other Living People Beneath the Underground Palace?

Professor Gu Gefu was approaching us step by step, and I shouted to alert everyone.

Professor Gu Gefu, we have no past grievances or recent enmities. If you seek revenge, go find Hathaway.

If you dare to cause trouble for me, then I apologize!

I held the revolver in one hand, aiming at Professor Gu Gefu's head.

Ready to blast his detestable dog head at any moment.

Hathaway, who had been walking ahead, heard my voice and stopped abruptly. Everyone looked back and saw Professor Gu Gefu approaching us.

In the already dark tunnel, suddenly seeing a zombie-like ghoul.

Qu Xiangyun was so terrified her face turned ashen.

And Hathaway was even worse. Although she made no sound, her trembling body betrayed her.

Among our group, besides me, Xivier was the most reliable.

When she saw the rotten Professor Gu Gefu, she showed no panic. Instead, she frowned and decisively shot at Professor Gu Gefu's body.

Seeing this, I also aimed at Professor Gu Gefu's head and fired repeatedly.

The truth lies within the range of a rifle.

No matter what kind of demon or ghost you are, you are nothing but a joke in front of modern firearms.

Within a mere minute, Xivier and I both emptied our magazines.

The crisp casings scattered on the ground. Looking at Professor Gu Gefu, he was no longer recognizable as a human, having been shot so extensively.

Professor Gu Gefu now only had half his head left.

Pieces of scarlet flesh fell to the ground, dyeing the area around Professor Gu Gefu into a bloodbath.

But what made us uneasy was that even so, Professor Gu Gefu could still move.

The remaining half of his face still wore a terrifying smile.

It sent chills down one's spine.

However, perhaps due to our gunfire, Professor Gu Gefu did not continue to approach us this time. Instead, he turned his head and slowly disappeared into the darkness.

Only when Professor Gu Gefu's figure was completely out of sight did I relax my tense nerves.

What on earth is Professor Gu Gefu now?!

A zombie?

Or… a puppet being controlled!?

The deeper we ventured into this sunless underground, the more I felt that we were surrounded by an indescribable terror. In the places we couldn't see, it seemed as though many monsters were hidden!

They were constantly watching us with greedy eyes.

The moment we let our guard down, they would undoubtedly devour us in this silent darkness.

Seeing that Professor Gu Gefu was no longer a threat, we continued forward. But this time was different from before. All of us were more or less uneasy, and any slight disturbance would provoke an overreaction from us.

The others were alright, but Hathaway, who had claimed to see Professor Gu Gefu die before her eyes, was further agitated by his resurrection and became even more frantic.

She was like a barrel of dynamite on a volcano, needing only a small spark to explode.

Looking at Hathaway's neurotic state, I couldn't help but frown.

Damn it, this crazy woman must have done something shameful.

Now, with her being so volatile, I don't know when she'll drag us down!

I wanted to calm Hathaway down.

But on second thought, perhaps having such a character among us might actually give me an opportunity to fish in troubled waters. So I remained silent, merely pulling Qu Xiangyun closer to me.

When we reached an open area, Xivier, who had been leading the way, sensed Hathaway's abnormal emotions behind her.

"Hathaway, there's no need to be so nervous. There's no such thing as resurrection in this world. Professor Gu Gefu becoming like this must be someone manipulating him from behind. Like the parasitic worms in the throat we encountered before. If that ghastly thing dares to appear again, this time we'll smash it into meat paste!"

Xivier analyzed calmly. Perhaps due to the long-standing trust in Xivier, Hathaway indeed calmed down after hearing her words, which made me feel a bit regretful.

However, Xivier's words also stirred something in my heart.

Although we had encountered those strange worms that could control a person's body before, Professor Gu Gefu's resurrection this time was far more bizarre than those worms.

He was definitely being controlled. There must be an even more terrifying enemy behind the scenes.

Are there other living people beneath this underground palace?

I thought and thought until my head ached, feeling somewhat agitated.

No matter who it is, if they dare to control corpses and appear before me again, I will throw them a grand fireworks display and send them to hell!
