Bang bang~
Two muffled thuds echoed consecutively in the silent mountain cave.
Two people, like corpses, were thrown to the ground.
In the air, two bone-like tails slowly retracted into the darker parts of the mountain cave.
These two people were precisely the two who had remained outside the mountain cave.
At this moment, their condition was far from good, as their chests were completely pierced through, and they had been dragged such a long distance; by all appearances, they wouldn't survive.
But, strangely, the bodies of these two struggled to get up from the ground.
The wounds, which had originally gushed with fresh blood, now no longer bled, and at the wound sites, crimson muscles eerily churned, seemingly trying to repair the bowl-sized injuries!
"What was that just now?"
One of them asked.
"I don't know, but to be able to easily drag you and me into the mountain cave, it's clearly not something simple; it's very likely a 'Near-God'!"
At these words, the mountain cave suddenly fell silent!
"Near-God" generally has two meanings: one is an existence that serves a god, and the other is an existence that approaches a god.
Regardless of which, both represent extreme danger!
Since the book of the devil disappeared, the chaos in the world has greatly reduced.
Especially those existences related to "Gods" have appeared even less frequently.
But every time they appear, they cause unimaginable disasters!
They hadn't expected their luck to be so good; they had encountered such a low probability event!
"If that's the case, then why did they let us go? If we're alive, then what about the Captain and the others?"
"I—I don't know."
They fell into confusion.
In the domain of these "False Gods," whatever they did was futile.
Although the Alliance bestowed upon them the name "False Gods," their power genuinely originated from "Gods"; every "False God" was difficult to kill, almost immortal and indestructible!
Of the sixteen "False Gods" discovered by the Alliance, only four were killed after countless sacrifices.
"I hope we managed to transmit the information, otherwise—"
Theoretically, all the footage captured by their machines had been synchronized out, but the problem was, they didn't know if they had been affected by the "False God's Domain"; they weren't sure if the images they had seen before were illusions.
Deep within the mountain cave, several figures prostrated on the ground, motionless like stone sculptures.
Perhaps only their rising and falling chests and abdomens indicated that they were still alive.
And in front of where they prostrated, a colossal figure sat upon a divine throne.
"I didn't expect that I would directly slumber for over twelve hundred years; truly, the world has changed greatly."
Though the colossal figure did not open its mouth, its voice entered the minds of the few prostrate on the ground.
But at this moment, having lost all consciousness, they could no longer make any response.
In fact, because of the "sound" emitted by this colossal figure, the bodies beneath the clothes of these few people began to swell, as if something inside wanted to break out.
"Twelve hundred years, your technology has developed so slowly; you haven't even left this planet and ventured into space. I'm truly disappointed!"
The colossal figure, its will invading the minds of these few people, examined their memories and learned of the current development of human society.
Compared to their time, it was simply too far behind!
In their era, they were already able to build a Laboratory on Mars!
But then again, when faced with disaster, hadn't a group of people already gone into space?
Why didn't they return to Earth to help those humans build their homes?
"Could it be that something beyond my expectation has happened?"
"But what exactly happened that made them abandon our home?"
Behind the colossal figure, as if a great serpent was wriggling, dark shadows frantically moved in the darkness.
Those were its tails, agitatedly swaying with its mood.
"Hmm, perhaps they have already returned, but because the status of these few people is too low, they simply don't know."
The tall figure glanced at the few people prostrate on the ground, like devout believers, then shook its head.
"Although their physiques far exceed those of humans in our time, their bodies are too susceptible to infection; they are not fit for great use!"
Then, six blood-red "Eyes" lit up in the darkness, all looking towards another part of the mountain cave.
There, the two people it had dragged into the mountain cave were fumbling around in the mountain cave, seemingly searching for a way out.
"Hmm—I can't be too hasty; if I'm not careful, these two will die."
With its breath, mysterious factors began to spread throughout the mountain cave, quickly attaching themselves to the two people it had dragged into the mountain cave.
"Let's start the transformation from here."
In this remote mountain village, a series of unknown changes were taking place!
— "Thump thump thump~"
A knock on the door woke Sun Gang.
Sun Gang groggily opened his "Eyes". "Wait a moment."
Sun Gang put on his clothes, then slipped on his slippers and walked to the door, looked through the peephole, and found it was someone he didn't know.
"Who are you?"
Sun Gang didn't open the door immediately but asked.
"We are from the Special Processing Bureau; we're here to investigate the specifics of your report and want to learn about the situation from you."
Sun Gang's groggy expression immediately became alert.
Special Processing Bureau?
What kind of agency is this? He felt like he had encountered a scam!
"I don't sell insurance!"
Sun Gang shouted from inside the door, then prepared to leave.
"We want to understand the matter of the mountain village sacrifice."
Click~
Sun Gang turned around and opened the door.
"I finally waited for you all to come; you don't know how hard I've been waiting for you."
Indeed, Sun Gang had been mentally tense these past few days and hadn't slept well.
Then, Sun Gang was taken to a special place.
Sun Gang was bewildered the entire time.
Generally, shouldn't questioning take place at the police station?
Somehow, Sun Gang admitted he was a little panicked.
Soon, he was taken to his destination; after passing through various buildings of unknown purpose, Sun Gang was led into an interrogation room.
Two men in black were already waiting.
However, what relieved Sun Gang was that he wasn't handcuffed, nor was he chained to the table.
The two men in black quickly began questioning Sun Gang.
But as the questioning continued, Sun Gang became a bit confused.
It was normal to ask about everything he saw in the mountain village this time, but when they asked about his parents' information, Sun Gang didn't understand.
Then came various questions about the village.
The interrogation was too detailed, wasn't it?
