Chapter 0669 – Deadly Pursuit

　　The shadows retreated and fled towards the outskirts of Liwan Town, and Dr. Gao was not in a very stable state after bearing the full curse.

　　The blood mist dispersed in all directions, the red clothes on Boo’s body became more and more vivid, she cocked her head and surveyed Chen Ge, it seemed that following this person’s luck would also change for the better.

　　”Hurry up!”

　　Chen Ge carried two large bags and flung his legs wide open to run wildly, but it was Fan Cong who suffered, he was fat himself, and this time, he was completely willing to give up his life.

　　”You guys wait for me!” Fan Cong covered his heart, he felt that fate is sometimes really very mysterious, the last time he ran like this was in Chen Ge’s haunted house, and this second time he would even run away with Chen Ge himself.

　　”Don’t ever stop! I’ll go find you a car!” Chen Ge ran along the road for half a day and didn’t see any working transportation, in the end, he had no choice but to say to Boo beside him, “After the doctor comes after us, you’ll take Fan Cong and find a place to hide first, I’ll go and lure the doctor away, but don’t stay away from me too much, getting rid of the shadows will still need to rely on your strength.”

　　Chen Ge had already run out a long way, and it was only then that Dr. Gao, whose half of his body had begun to dissolve, made a move.

　　The chains cut across the blood mist, making ear-piercing sounds as they rubbed against the surrounding buildings.

　　”Chen Ge ……”

　　Blood red eyes stared at the distant Chen Ge and Shadow, perhaps he was also wondering why these two figures were so similar.

　　Almost all of the curses that the entire Liwan Town had accumulated over the years had surged into Dr. Gao’s body, and black and red blood continued to flow out of his body, and those blood were mixed with black and grey impurities, and if one leaned in close enough, one could still hear something wailing among the impurities.

　　Seeing Dr. Gao’s current appearance, Chen Ge also had a moment of fear: “Shadow’s undercard is truly terrifying, if Dr. Gao didn’t show up, I’m afraid that the ones who would have to bear so many curses would be me and all the employees. At that time, even if I can finish off the shadow, I’m afraid I’ll lose a large portion of my staff.”

　　There was a limit to the number of curses that each stern ghost could digest, and beyond the limit, the stern ghosts themselves would turn into new curses, and while digesting the curses, the negativity in their hearts might be triggered, making them unable to receive visitors in the haunted house at all.

　　Without the actors, Chen Ge could only suspend all the underground scenes in the horror house.

　　With no way for the haunted house to operate normally, New Century Land would definitely be affected, and at the critical juncture of the opening of Virtual Future Land, this might become the last straw that crushed New Century Land.

　　Don’t look at the fact that everything was slowly getting better now, in reality, the difficulties involved were only known to Chen Ge himself, and a little bit of inattention would cause all the previous efforts to go to waste.

　　”The fact that the Shadow took the initiative to retreat and rush to the Underworld Building means that Tong Tong and the others took something that the Shadow valued, which is considered good news for me.”

　　Anything that could cause trouble for Shadow, Chen Ge felt it was a good thing.

　　Behind him, Dr. Gao had already chased after him, but the other party was in a strange state right now, and Chen Ge didn’t know why Dr. Gao was in hot pursuit of him, “Didn’t we all make it clear when he committed suicide in the first place? I even promised to help him take care of Gao Ruxue.”

　　Dr. Gao had already lost his mind, and now that he was being haunted by a curse, how could Chen Ge dare to stop and have a conversation with him.

　　”Whatever, get them all to the Underworld Building, even if we really fight, we have to destroy the Underworld Building, we can’t let the Shadow’s plan succeed.”

　　Under Chen Ge’s leadership, Dr. Gao and Boo all moved towards the Underworld Building, and Shadow who saw this scene was almost infuriated.

　　He knew that Chen Ge was in Liwan Town, but he didn’t expect that the person Dr. Gao was really looking for was Chen Ge.

　　Noticing a strong malice, Chen Ge looked into the distance, the shadow was on another street not far from him.

　　Pointing behind him, Chen Ge gestured towards the shadow, “That’s right, I’m the one who lured him here.”

　　The shadow hated his teeth, but he knew that Chen Ge possessed the protection of Red Clothes, there was no way to solve Chen Ge in a short period of time, so he simply out of sight, out of mind, and accelerated his speed to rush to the Underworld Building.

　　”It looks like Tong Tong and the others did make a big mess for Shadow.” Chen Ge signaled Boo to join Fan Cong, and he himself impacted with all his might and chased towards the shadow.

　　Soon, a bizarre scene appeared on the streets of Liwan Town.

　　The Shadow, who was the mastermind behind the scene, was being chased by a living person carrying a bag, then followed by a red-clothed lunatic, and at the end was a panting fat man and a little girl with no arms and legs.

　　Shadow’s heart was anxious about the Underworld Building, and he couldn’t care less about Chen Ge at this time, it looked like Chen Ge was actively chasing him around.

　　The Underworld Building was in the middle of the Ming Yang neighborhood outside Liwan Town, and when Chen Ge walked to the edge of Liwan Town, he could clearly feel that the blood mist had become thicker.

　　”The blood mist outside the town seems a bit different from the mist in the middle of the town, there seems to be something more inside.” Feeling it with his heart, it seemed like someone was calling out Chen Ge’s name in the west, and New Century Paradise was roughly in that direction.

　　The shadow didn’t give Chen Ge more time to think, he crossed the deserted road and crashed headlong into the middle of the neighborhood.

　　The fog of blood obscured his figure, and Shadow just disappeared before Chen Ge’s eyes.

　　The shadow was gone, but Dr. Gao was still chasing after Chen Ge, he had to find a way to divert Dr. Gao’s attention before he could do so.

　　Chen Ge looked back, one of Doctor Gao’s eyes had turned black and red, and countless black threads and blood threads were entwined together before turning into black and gray blood flowing out.

　　”The state that Dr. Gao is giving is getting more and more wrong, Boo once said that the severe ghosts will be assimilated after enduring an excessive amount of curses, the more powerful the severe ghosts are, the more horrifying the curses that they will eventually turn into! If Dr. Gao is assimilated by the Knight Ghost, what kind of curse will this Knight Ghost closest to the one above the red coat turn into?”

　　”No waiting to drag it down!” Chen Ge put his hand into his backpack and shouted Yan Danian’s name: “Can you sense Lao Zhou’s location? Hurry!”

　　Old Zhou had lived in Yan Dainian’s comic book for many years, and they had a very good relationship, Chen Ge also shouted out Yan Dainian’s name with the idea of trying.

　　The oppressive feeling of the red coat is suffocating, knowing that things are urgent, the comic book among the backpack flipped up by itself, and then a ballpoint pen wrapped in transparent tape drew a picture on the blank page.

　　Old Zhou and Men Nan were hiding in some room, and the window next to them could just see the station outside Liwan Town.

　　”This angle?” Chen Ge tilted his head and scanned the four buildings in Mingyang District, and finally rushed to the one on the far left, which he had entered with Team Yan at the time and had seen the station from the window of a certain room in the building.

　　At the critical moment, the Pen Fairy and Yan Dainian cooperated and gave Chen Ge important tips.

　　Calling out Xu Yin, Chen Ge ran directly into the middle of the building.

　　”Old Zhou! Men Nan!” He shouted loudly, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he realized that the situation was not right, the scene in this hallway was completely different from the scene he had seen in reality!

　　The Mingyang neighborhood in reality was a rotten building that didn’t even have windows installed, and the ground was untreated concrete.

　　But what appeared in front of Chen Ge’s eyes now was a clean floor, painted walls, and even lighting fixtures installed in the hallway.

　　”The door that Boo pushed open was in Liwan Town, here she can’t affect it yet, so the Mingyang neighborhood is definitely not woven from her memories, so why is there such a big contrast between this place and the reality?” If Dr. Gao hadn’t been chasing after her, Chen Ge wouldn’t have entered such a bizarre place anyway.

　　The world behind the door relied on reality and was a manifestation of those nightmares in reality.

　　Upon closer inspection, he realized that there were also all sorts of patterns painted on the walls, including little people, animals, and all sorts of toys.

　　”These things look like they were drawn by children, so strange! Why does this place give me a feeling like when I first entered the Jiujiang Children’s Welfare Center?”

　　Old Zhou and Men Nan didn’t respond, Dr. Gao was right behind them, and Chen Ge didn’t dare to go upstairs, he was worried that his back way would be blocked by Dr. Gao when the time came.

　　”Only take a look on the first and second floors.”

　　With Chen Ge’s current physical quality, jumping from the second floor would not hurt him as long as he paid more attention, but the third floor was not necessarily the case.

　　”Dr. Gao is still far away from me, he’s slowing down, he’s still taking the initiative right now, after Shadow left Liwan Town, I can clearly feel that Boo is getting stronger, the red clothes on her body are getting more and more vibrant.”

　　Chen Ge called out Men Nan’s and Old Zhou’s names while rushing towards the inside, and when he saw the closed door of the room, he didn’t think too much about it, and raised his hand to hammer it.

　　The door panel was hammered open, and the image behind the door surprised Chen Ge.

　　There were no ghosts or monsters, nor were there any cruel scenes, only a few young children drawing.

　　Their eyes were simple, they didn’t even know what hatred and pain were, they just grasped the paintbrushes in their hands and looked blankly at Chen Ge.

　　These children were like pieces of white paper, Chen Ge was not praising their innocence, but felt that they seemed to be missing something very important, losing their spirituality, no longer human, but puppets that looked like human beings.

　　Outside the room suddenly broke into a “thug” holding a murder weapon, but they did not have emotional fluctuations, stagnant holding the paintbrush, staring blankly at Chen Ge.

　　”It must be Shadow’s doing!”

　　Chen Ge had long since heard that the Ming Yang district was actually a netherworld district built for ghosts, he initially thought that all the people who lived here were lone souls and wild ghosts, but now he realized that he was still too simple, how could the shadow be kind enough to allow lone souls and wild ghosts to move in, and that all the people who lived in this district were all children who were of use to him.

　　”Did you guys see anyone come in just now?” To Chen Ge’s question, those children didn’t have any reaction, they stared blankly at Chen Ge for a while, then picked up their paintbrushes and went back to doing their own thing.

　　Each of them seemed to have been stripped of their memories, leaving only some very simple images in their minds, and the meaning of their existence was to use the brushes in their hands to continuously paint those simple images.

　　Chen Ge continuously searched for several rooms, all of which were filled with such children.

　　”In reality, there are a lot of pieces of dolls in the Ming Yang neighborhood, now that I think about it, those dolls actually correspond to a living person.”

　　Without delay, Chen Ge came to the second floor, and in the process of opening the door he didn’t forget to shout Men Nan’s name towards the upstairs.

　　”I’ve seen the scene of the Pen Fairy painting in this building, Men Nan and Old Zhou are definitely in the middle of this building, but why don’t they talk back to me? Even if they are in danger, it’s not so bad that they can’t even make a sound, right?”

　　The text message sent by Tong Tong was asking for help, Chen Ge knew that Men Nan and the others must have encountered problems, but he didn’t expect things to become so complicated.

　　Chen Ge hammered open the door to the second floor, which was still full of children, “Boo’s hands and legs are hidden on the upper floors, and now that Dr. Gao is about to come over, if I venture up there, I might get caught on both sides by Shadow and Dr. Gao.”

　　While he was hesitating, a voice suddenly came from the fourth floor, “Chen Ge! Save me! Save me!”

　　There weren’t many people in Liwan Town who knew Chen Ge’s real name, and Chen Ge looked up to find Jia Ming’s head sticking out of the staircase steps, his body almost falling down.

　　His expression was extremely agonized, and his eyes were so red that they seemed to be about to burst out of their sockets, “Help me! They’re all here!”

　　”Don’t come up! Chen Ge! Leave this building immediately! Tell Team Yan everything about this place! Remember! Be sure to tell Team Yan!” As Jia Ming opened his mouth, another voice appeared, a voice Chen Ge was very familiar with, it was none other than Team Li.

　　”If you want to die, don’t drag me along! Chen Ge! They’re all here! Take us away! Save us!” Jia Ming seemed to be enduring indescribable pain, his body desperately reaching out, Chen Ge could see handcuffs cuffed to his wrists, and the other side of the handcuffs were cuffed to Li Zheng’s wrists.

　　Li Zheng, Jia Ming, Scissors and several of them, disappeared in the Ming Yang neighborhood, and now they inexplicably appeared, which caused Chen Ge to be suspicious.

　　If it was usual he would definitely wait and see for a while before making a decision, but this time the situation was just too special.

　　Dr. Gao was right behind him and would be coming over soon, he didn’t have much time to think, his body instinctively ran towards the upstairs.

　　He could care less about Jia Ming’s death or life, but he had to save Team Li.

　　A long time ago, when Chen Ge first fought with the Weird Talk Association in the Fang Hua Yuan neighborhood, this police officer had helped himself greatly, buying himself time in the nick of time.

　　Chen Ge asked himself that he wasn’t a good person, but he remembered everything in his heart about who treated him well.

　　”Li Zheng just mentioned Team Yan, why did he tell Team Yan everything here? Is his identity really extraordinary?”

　　Running to the fourth floor, Chen Ge saw that Li Zheng and Jia Ming’s hands and feet were tied, and a few kids were grabbing them and pushing them towards the gap in the middle of the building.

　　As soon as those kids saw Chen Ge coming up, they immediately dispersed.

　　”What the hell is going on?” Getting rid of the ropes, Chen Ge grabbed Li Zheng and headed downstairs, and as soon as he asked on his side, another strange sound came from the roof.

　　Looking up, Scissors, the drunkard, and half of the doctor’s body were pushed into the middle of the stairway gap, and several children were grabbing their legs.

　　All three were on the seventh floor, not too far from them, not too close.

　　”Shadow is forcing me to go upstairs?” Chen Ge immediately understood the shadow’s intentions.

　　”Don’t mind us! You go out first! This is a conspiracy!” The drunken man shouted loudly, and his voice sounded quite magnificent.

　　”The shadow only has one, there’s no way for him to control so many people at the same time ……”

　　While Chen Ge was thinking, a bang came from outside the building, and a chain full of human faces was thrown heavily against the wall outside the residential building.

　　”Dr. Gao is coming over.”

　　Clenching his fists, Chen Ge summoned Xu Yin and told him to take the flyer and go to another building first to distract Dr. Gao.

　　”Do you think I don’t have any other red clothes besides Xu Yin?” Chen Ge took out his Skull Crushing Hammer and no longer had any qualms about running towards the roof of the building with all his might: “I don’t believe that you have more undercards than I do! After I finish you off, I’ll go catch up with Dr. Gao.”
