With a boom!
The talisman turned into a massive ball of fire, engulfing the vampire, and then…
"Ah!"
The vampire screamed in agony, retreating continuously.
Talismans were effective!
Honestly, talismans were supposed to have a restraining effect on ghosts and monsters, but this was a vampire. Bai Ye wasn't entirely confident. Western creatures, he wondered if the Taoist Ancestors of China had any jurisdiction over them.
And the facts proved…
The Taoist Ancestors were awesome!
Bai Ye immediately conjured another talisman, shook it, and then extended his hand forward again.
"Wind Curse!"
A gale erupted from nowhere!
A whirlwind rose beneath the vampire's feet, spinning relentlessly. The wind was like a blade, and in an instant, the vampire's body was torn to shreds. This time, the vampire's body failed to reform. The scattered bats, torn to pieces, were continuously burned by the flames, quickly turning into ashes.
Having dealt with the vampire, Bai Ye picked up the Dragon's Roar again, then proceeded through the corridor and into a grand hall.
In a corner of the hall, there was a prison-like iron cage.
This was a themed scene where a group of monsters in prison uniforms would chase tourists, and at the same time…
Clang!
Bai Ye arrived at the iron cage and forcefully kicked over the barred door.
This was also where Dias had imprisoned the children in the past.
Bai Ye stepped over the toppled iron gate, pried open the charred wooden boards on the wall, and soon revealed a twisted, scorched iron door.
Bai Ye raised his foot again and kicked the iron door fiercely, blasting it open.
Upon entering, a prison cell appeared before Bai Ye's eyes.
Gloomy, damp, and reeking of decay.
Some straw was spread on the ground, and chains and shackles were embedded in the surrounding walls. In the center, a charred skeleton was bound by shackles.
This was the remains of Ragen Dias. The enraged villagers had stormed in, beaten him half to death, then shackled him in this cell, just as he had done to the children. They then set fire to the haunted house, burning Dias to death here.
Bai Ye took out a cigarette pack from his pocket, pulled out a cigarette, and lit it.
Next, Dias's vengeful spirit was about to appear.
This actually required some clues. Based on the exploration within the haunted house, one would eventually conclude that fire was needed to make Dias's vengeful spirit appear.
However, Bai Ye didn't need to go through that step. He knew how to make Dias's vengeful spirit appear.
Bai Ye took a drag of his cigarette and flicked the half-smoked butt away.
The half-smoked cigarette landed in front of the charred skeleton. Though it was just a spark, the skeleton suddenly ignited.
"Ah, ah…"
"Ah… ah…"
Piercing screams suddenly rang out.
"You cannot kill me, I will definitely return."
"I curse you, I will curse you forever."
"I will not fall into hell, I will curse you until I return!"
Amidst the screams, enraged curses followed. Then, flesh began to grow on the skeleton, but it was charred flesh. There was no skin, only twisted muscle, looking terrifying and ghastly.
Dias's vengeful spirit!
Soon, Dias opened his eyes and looked at Bai Ye.
"Who are you?"
Dias's voice was extremely unpleasant. His burnt vocal cords made his voice sound like he had a mouthful of aged phlegm stuck in his throat—rough, hoarse, and sharp, giving one a creepy sensation.
Then…
Bai Ye directly shoved the barrel of his gun against Dias's head.
"Who I am is not important," Bai Ye said. "You just need to know that I'm here to send you to hell, and that's enough, you child molester!"
Bang!
The moment Bai Ye spoke, he pulled the trigger.
With a roar, five energy beams exploded, hitting Dias's head and blasting him away.
Bai Ye's immediate aggression left Dias a little stunned. He hadn't even finished his lines, and Bai Ye shot him?
That's not playing by the rules!
Enraged, Dias…
As expected of a powerful figure involved in Forbidden Zone missions, Dias's head was blown off on one side after taking a shot from the Dragon's Roar. Exposed flesh revealed bone beneath, but this level of injury was merely a superficial wound for a vengeful spirit.
Bai Ye didn't waste any words and retreated to create distance.
Although the Dragon's Roar was a high-quality item obtained from the Black Gashapon, Bai Ye knew it wouldn't be enough to obliterate Dias with a single shot. Furthermore, while advanced technological items were indeed powerful, they had little effect on supernatural beings. Conversely, technological items actually experienced a degree of weakening when facing ghosts and spirits in the spiritual world.
As Bai Ye created distance, Dias roared and forcefully tugged on his arm, ripping the chain from the wall. He then swung it forward with immense strength, sweeping it towards Bai Ye.
"Hexagonal Prism Shield!"
Bai Ye immediately threw out the Hexagonal Prism Shield, and then…
It shattered!
The Hexagonal Prism Shield was pitiful. For ordinary attacks, Bai Ye didn't need its defense. But for extraordinary attacks, the offense was equally extraordinary, and the shield couldn't block it.
However, it had managed to block one blow before its demise. Bai Ye immediately pulled the trigger, and this time…
Bai Ye went all out.
"Assault!"
No fear, fight head-on!
Bai Ye held down the trigger without releasing, and the Dragon's Roar truly transformed into a dragon, letting out a furious roar.
Bang, bang, bang…
Groups of five energy beams fired continuously without any pause, bombarding Dias.
The rapid rate of fire was terrifying, so much so that the five beams seemed to meld together, with almost no discernible gap.
Dias was unable to block or dodge. His body was directly pinned against the wall by the energy beams. Even so, the weapon continued to unleash its power until the energy crystal's power was depleted.
Then…
With a thunderous roar!
The wall behind Dias, unable to withstand the strain, collapsed backward. Dias also fell through the wall.
At the same time, Bai Ye glanced at the Dragon's Roar. The barrel was glowing red, entering a cooldown state and unable to fire any longer.
"I'm going to kill you!"
On the other side, Dias let out another roar and stood up again.
His appearance was beyond miserable. Most of his flesh had been blasted away by the energy beams, leaving only tattered pieces of flesh hanging from his body. One of his eyeballs even dangled from its socket, swaying continuously. His skeletal frame was once again exposed.
Bai Ye sneered, casually tossed the Dragon's Roar aside, and drew out a stack of talismans.
Against ghosts and spirits in supernatural zones, the Dragon's Roar was merely an embellishment. The talismans obtained from Bagua Mountain were the trump card!
