I changed the world.

However, even with a gun pointed at him, Yu Huai looked with terror at the area behind the two special agents...

But then he readily raised his hands to his eyes, the silver handcuffs on his wrists clearly visible, and said in an extremely urgent voice, "Gentlemen... hurry... take me away quickly, I'll cooperate with anything, I'll tell you everything..."

At the same time, he struggled, trying to stand up...

This cooperative manner took the two field staff members, who had made extensive preparations, somewhat unexpectedly, leaving them speechless for a moment.

"They're here!!! They're already here!!!! Take me away, take me away from here..." Seeing the two people's reaction, Yu Huai's expression became more and more panicked and fearful. If it weren't for the fact that he was covered in wounds and unable to move easily, given his current mental state, no one would doubt that he would turn around and run away.

"Don't move, watch your emotions! Speak clearly! Who's coming?" one of the field agents asked, while simultaneously raising their guard. Although their work, strictly speaking, was not very long-standing and they lacked knowledge in many related areas, they could still tell that Yu Huai's mental state seemed quite abnormal; he was clearly afraid of something.

However, what's strange is that these field personnel are well aware that, in addition to the radar on the helicopter itself, there are many other detection devices locking onto their mission area.

Even in orbit about 170 kilometers above them, a dedicated military satellite has adjusted its angle and pointed its camera at this location.

In this situation, if anything unusual were to approach, they would certainly be notified in advance. However, so far, he is certain that there is nothing particularly unusual around here.

This makes Yu Huai's reaction seem abnormal and even somewhat frightening. What exactly is he afraid of?

"The underworld... the underworld is coming to take me away!!! Take me away!!! Take me away!!!" Yu Huai pleaded almost desperately, shrinking back as he crawled backward.

"Motion... hiss... the fog... is getting thicker... visibility... is getting worse." The helicopter pilot's voice began to break in the communication channel.

The two team members, who had originally intended to ask what the "underworld" was, stopped talking upon hearing this. One of them reported in the communication channel: "The target's mental state is unstable. Can we administer a sedative?"

Volume Two: The Truth Hidden Behind History: Chapter 789 The Underworld? The Underworld!

However, his question went unanswered, which made him realize immediately that the communication was being interfered with and was deteriorating. This unusual situation alerted the special agents present, and several agents began to move closer to each other.

One of the special agents, carrying a heavy and unusual-looking object, had already placed the device on the ground. After landing, the mechanical device quickly deformed and opened, forming a triangular structure with short cannon-like structures mounted on it.

Immediately afterwards, 6. Then, one could see that the short (cannon-shaped structure) continuously fired into the sky, and one after another, curled-up mechanical beetles were shot into the sky, hovering there. The next moment, they became bright, like small suns, emitting similar strong light in all directions.

The spectrum of this neon umbrella is similar to sunlight; it is a kind of light with a slightly warm tint, which illuminates the surrounding dark alleyways brightly.

However, in the next moment, the light from these small sun-like beetles dimmed all at once. It was an extremely indescribable state. These sun beetles were still radiating light in all directions, but this light seemed to be suppressed by some more "essential" darkness, suppressing the entire alleyway back into a deep and gloomy state.

At that moment, Yu Huai's eyes widened suddenly, his gaze almost bursting out of their sockets. His body then began to struggle. Strangely, although there were no other restraints on his body except for the handcuffs on his hands, he seemed to be firmly bound by some kind of rope, struggling to break free from that intangible bondage.

Immediately afterwards, it sounded as if a baby was crying from the void!

At the same time, as if a false barrier covering everyone's vision had been wiped away, the special agents now saw the thick, seemingly real yet illusory chain binding Yu Huai...

The chain emerged from the mist at the alleyway ahead, and at the other end of the chain were tall, shadowy figures in the mist. These hazy and enormous figures were nearly three meters tall and wore strange top hats. Just one look was enough to tell that they were no ordinary people!

In addition, another similar chain also bound a struggling figure in mid-air. It was a monster with bone wings, which looked like a twisted infant, deformed and strange. At this moment, it was still struggling while being bound by the chain, making cries like a baby crying.

The next moment, the chain retracted inward, and the monster was instantly strangled! Immediately afterwards, the chain that had previously bound it snapped back!

The special agents immediately pointed their guns at the suddenly appearing monsters (people). One agent, on high alert, even pulled the trigger, and a loud gunshot echoed through the alley. However, after a short burst of gunfire, the bullets passed through these tall figures as if they were passing through a mirage, without causing a ripple.

The figures in the illusion, though seemingly existing in a parallel world, are completely impossible to hit.

"Cease fire... Stop... Firing..." The commander's command came through the communication channel, but it was somewhat intermittent due to signal problems. At the same time, Li Zhen, as the commander, crossed his hands above his head and quickly made a cease-fire gesture.

"The sorcerer Yu Huai... has violated the laws of the underworld... his crime is unforgivable..."

"...As ordered... arrest the underworld officials and bring them to justice..."

A series of eerie and ethereal voices rang out. Strangely enough, they weren't very loud, yet they seemed to appear directly in the minds of all the special agents, making sure everyone heard them clearly...

At the same time, Yu Huai suddenly convulsed, and then his body collapsed to the ground as if his bones had been pulled out.

As he fell, another Yu Huai broke free from his body, bound by the chains, and was pulled forward, stumbling along.

"Hey..." The special operations team member standing next to him subconsciously reached out to stop him, but unexpectedly, he blocked empty air. Yu Huai was like the moon in the water and a flower in a mirror, illusory and unreal. His arm passed right through the other person's body...

Could it be?

A horrifying thought flashed through the team member's mind. He instinctively looked back and saw Yu Huai lying motionless on the ground beside him...

Two Yu Huai?!

He immediately knelt down to check, and sure enough... Yu Huai's vital signs had disappeared; it was...

Dead?!

“Target… dead… target… dead… target… dead…” The communication channel was still severely interfered with, but the special operations team member kept repeating it while also using sign language to repeatedly signal to his colleagues around him.

This made everyone understand the current situation in a short period of time.

In an instant, all eyes were focused on Yu Huai, who was still stumbling forward, or rather, on Yu Huai's spirit!

At this moment, almost everyone guessed that the person being taken away was clearly Yu Huai's spirit, or, according to the folk legends of Dazhao... a human soul!

The Underworld...

The underworld?!

The underworld!!

The underworld!!!

As field agents of the Fourth Division of the Special Crime Investigation Bureau of the Department of Justice, these combatants dare to say they are among the most adaptable people in the world.

After all, they have all undergone rigorous training, and they can immediately accept whatever seems unbelievable to them.

"Existence is its own justification! No matter how incredible it may seem, you have to try to accept it..." This is what an instructor once taught them during their training.

After all, in an era when humanity knew very little about the extraordinary world, they were, in a sense, the first forces to come into contact with it.

Their previous training courses inevitably included lessons on the traditional mythology of the Great Zhao Kingdom. After all, it seems that a considerable number of these extraordinary events are more or less related to mythology and religion.

Therefore, after initially being confused by the term "underworld," these special agents gradually realized that it must be... the legendary department that manages the final resting place of the dead, right?!

Now it seems that these ghosts and spirits came from the underworld, and their target was also the "target person" in front of them?

In some ways, they seem to be in the same industry?!

Volume Two: The Truth Hidden Behind History Books: Chapter 790 No Need to Ask While Alive, You'll Know After You Die…

Regardless of what the special agents thought, Yu Huai continued to stumble forward, his face showing a pained and terrified expression. He kept turning his head back, his mouth opening and closing but unable to speak, as if he was begging the people behind him to pull him back.

Faced with this situation, it must be said that these field personnel had not received the corresponding training and were at a loss for what to do. Just then, Li Zhen, the squad leader who was the battlefield commander, took a deep breath, took off the helmet he was wearing, and threw it on the ground.

He then threw his gun on the ground, raised his hands, and shouted:

"Everyone!!! Everyone!!! We are law enforcement officers from Jin'an City. May we communicate?" He repeated his words loudly, carefully observing the tall figures that were faintly visible in the fog opposite him. Seeing that the other party did not seem to make any obvious response, he mustered his courage and began to move forward carefully but slowly, following behind Yu Huai.

Behind him, some operatives, seeing their commander move forward, intended to follow, but Li Zhen stopped them with a gesture. He placed his hands at his sides, within sight, knowing he was probably making a fuss, because based on the brief exchange just now, it was clear the enemy was completely unconcerned about gunfire; their way of existing was something he couldn't comprehend. However, at this moment, he had no choice but to try.

He tried to walk forward another ten steps or so, and gradually he could see a huge ghost standing in front of him in the mist. It was a person wearing a tall, cylindrical hat with four ancient seal characters on it: "Catching you."

This ghost had a face as white as paper and wore a simple, ancient-style black robe. He carried heavy chains on his back, one end of which dragged on the ground, while the other end was bound to the "target."

The instant he saw the ghost, an inexplicable fear surged within Li Zhen. A bone-chilling cold rose up inexplicably, and he felt as if he were frozen solid. It wasn't physical cold, but a fear and deathly stillness that came from the depths of his soul...

It was as if he were gazing at some final destiny that no one has been able to escape for millions of years—death itself!

Almost instantly, Li Zhen's face turned deathly pale, covered in cold sweat. He began to truly believe the strange language he had just heard, and the monsters before him... no... were ghosts and gods! They might really have come from that legendary place...

"Gentlemen... esteemed officials of the underworld... I am a law enforcement officer from Jin'an City..." Li Zhen struggled to suppress the urge to turn around and leave, and spoke with difficulty.

Only then did the underworld official in front of him, who was about to leave, stop and look at him, as if listening to him continue.

Seeing that the ghosts and spirits before him did not make any dangerous moves and seemed to be able to communicate, Li Zhen's spirits lifted. He realized that his risky step forward was the right gamble, and even his speech became much smoother. He hurriedly continued, "This person has committed a serious crime and is a criminal suspect. We originally planned to arrest and investigate him. I wonder where you all plan to take him?"

"Could you hand him over to us first? We will certainly handle it according to the law..." In fact, the Fourth Division of the Special Crime Investigation Bureau, where Li Zhen worked, especially the action unit responsible for field operations, did not have the right to enforce the law and execute prisoners. However, he had no choice but to say so at this moment.

Then, he heard a faint and profound voice, as if coming from afar, appear in his ears.

"The Yin official does not hold the Yang seal... This is the fundamental principle of Yin and Yang..."

"If this is a normal occurrence... the underworld will not interfere in the affairs of the mortal world..."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhen, though not fully understanding some of the words, could grasp the general meaning. His heart pounded, and he swallowed hard, continuing to suppress his nervousness as he asked, "If that's the case, why are you all here this time..."

"But this person is different..."

"The sorcerer Yu Huai used living people as sacrifices to practice evil arts... After his scheme failed, he attempted to bribe the underworld officials... and colluded with demons from beyond the realm... in order to escape..."

"His crime is unforgivable; arrest him immediately!"

Upon hearing this, Li Zhen's eyes widened. As a member of the Umbrella Operation, he was actually not clear about what had happened during this operation. The pre-battle briefing only reminded him that there were abnormal magnetic field fluctuations in the Qingfeng Mountain area in the northern suburbs of Jin'an City, with the magnetic field peak rising rapidly, suggesting a possible Type IV event. In addition, there were vehicles suspected of driving dangerously from the target location, and traffic police officers were suspected of witnessing supernatural phenomena.

Under these circumstances, he brought his subordinates here, only to encounter an unexpected situation. However, if what the underworld deity said is true, then this has revealed much information that the fourth location did not previously possess.

For Li Zhen, this was a genuine achievement, and he wanted to ask a few more questions. However, the ghost didn't want to talk to him anymore. After speaking, it turned and left, dragging the stumbling Yu Huai behind it, its silent wails continuing...

"My lord...this lord of the underworld...could you perhaps..."

Before Li Zhen could finish speaking, a faint voice came from ahead again: "No need to ask questions while alive, you will know after death... We will meet again..."

Upon hearing this, Li Zhen shuddered, immediately realizing the implication: indeed... if the other person truly came from that final destination for everyone, then they would indeed meet again...

See you after we die!

In the blink of an eye, when he looked up again, he could no longer see Wu's figure.
