Zhong Kui's Diary
Kong Xuan sighed and rubbed his forehead. "Logically, as long as you enter the storage room, we can act. However, considering the background of the Ninth Research Institute, we've decided to solidify the evidence a bit more. We'll wait until they put the formation into the Satellite before we take action."
"What about me?" I glanced sideways at Kong Xuan.
Kong Xuan chuckled, "As for you, just skip a word in the incantation, right? Anyway, that Flower Attacker isn't here, and they don't know what will happen once the formation is activated. By the time you activate it, they'll naturally find a way to put it into the Satellite. As soon as they touch the Satellite, we'll rush in and capture them."
"Is that how we catch them red-handed? Do you think I'm an idiot?" I said unhappily.
Kong Xuan smiled, "The warehouse has already been equipped with cameras. Lou Wei is operating from outside; he should have connected to Office One by now. Although Number One might not be watching, those secretaries and directors in Office One will definitely be watching. Isn't that enough to catch them red-handed? Stay sharp; you're the main character here!"
"Please, I'm just an undercover agent!" I laughed. But deep down, I thought that Dominion Villa really had deep roots; even someone like Lou Wei needed solid evidence to speak in front of Number One.
"If Abe fell into the water and he can't swim but you can, what would you do?" Kong Xuan changed the subject as he watched the van slowly approach.
"Out of humanitarian spirit, I would swim around him and demonstrate various swimming techniques..." I joked.
At this moment, Tang Seng and others got out of the car. The van carried Tang Seng, Hua Wuqiu, and that mysterious woman before driving away. After waiting for a while, Sha Monk and Sima Sanguang were also sent to the front gate.
"I'm done here. If you need to head back later, just call out," Fatty said with a smile as he waved his hand and got into the car before slowly leaving.
Once the van had driven a distance away, Tang Seng nodded at Sima Sanguang. "It's up to you now!"
Sima Sanguang walked to the keyboard under the screen at the gate and pressed a key. The entire screen lit up, displaying a skull icon with a black ds Command Window below it. Sima Sanguang moved his fingers slightly and smiled, "Since there's no key, we'll just have to use the backdoor to open the interface!"
With that, he extended his hands forward, ten fingers flying over the keyboard as commands jumped across the ds panel.
A few minutes later, the screen flickered, and the skull icon along with the panel disappeared. The entire screen suddenly turned black, and then a golden dot appeared in the center of the screen. After flickering a few times, the golden dot gradually enlarged until it transformed into a soccer ball. The black background slowly morphed into a goal on a soccer field, with a wall of players from the Chinese National Football Team standing in front of it, all with one hand on their heads and the other protecting their groin, looking as if they were about to take a free kick.
"What does this mean?" I asked in surprise.
"This is the access control system I designed. You have to input the correct commands, and this soccer ball will start moving erratically to break through the China Team's defense and score a goal," Sima Sanguang explained proudly as he turned around. "You must shoot and score ten times in a row for the access control to unlock; even one less won't work. Among these ten commands, there are various verifications, such as fingerprint verification, pupil verification, and a password that is nine digits long. You must input them all at once. Overall, these ten commands are quite troublesome."
"Do you know the password? Do you have your fingerprint and pupil data?" Tang Seng asked with a frown.
"How could I possibly know? It's like a bank card; they give you an initial password of six eights. Wouldn't you change it? Fingerprint and pupil verifications also need to be reset," Sima Sanguang laughed.
"So you mean you can't open this big door?" Tang Seng's eyes suddenly glinted dangerously.
"Uh, I was just showing off my hard work," Sima Sanguang quickly turned back and began typing rapidly on the keyboard. After about ten minutes, a large foot appeared in the center of the screen and kicked one of the players in the face. That player was sent flying into the air and quickly disappeared. Sima Sanguang continued to operate, and soon the screen showed the second and third kicks... until finally, the entire wall of players vanished, leaving only the goal, the soccer ball, and the large foot on the screen.
Sima Sanguang smiled triumphantly and typed a few more commands. The large foot began shooting, kicking the soccer ball into the goal ten times. With a click, the screen went completely black, and that massive golden door slowly opened to both sides.
Damn it, such a ridiculous access control system was actually repurposed; I had nothing to say except curse.
As the door opened, it revealed an exceptionally spacious warehouse. In the middle of this four-story-high warehouse, which was as large as a soccer field, stood only a two-meter-square satellite. It was no wonder it felt so empty. The satellite was shaped like a hexagon and was entirely orange-yellow, with several layers of silver wings seemingly folded on both sides.
Looking around, there was nothing unusual in the warehouse; the only oddity was a huge metal plate placed against the wall opposite the door, slightly protruding forward—its purpose was unknown.
Sima Sanguang pressed a switch behind him, and the iron door slowly closed. We all walked up to the satellite. At that moment, both sides—Dominion Villa's group and ours—were breathing somewhat heavily.
"It's your turn!" Tang Seng said to me, his tone slightly trembling; he must have been extremely excited inside.
I took out a golden sphere from my Spatial Bag. To be safe, I dropped one bag; this golden ball was not from Rain of Swords Formation but one of four golden spheres I brought out from Shoushan Ancient Tomb. I didn't know which element it belonged to—ice, fire, wind, or thunder—but it had already been unsealed from its restriction and was just like an ordinary golden sphere now.
After taking out the Golden Ball, I was about to recite the incantation when Tang Seng suddenly raised his hand to stop me and asked the mysterious woman, "Shall we begin now?"
For a moment, I, along with Kong Xuan and the others, were taken aback. We had thought that Tang Seng was the highest leader among us, but it turned out there was an even greater boss. At the same time, a big question mark arose in my mind. In the villa, the only person who could be a higher authority than Tang Seng was Master Lin and the two Deputy Masters.
Since this person was a woman, it ruled out Deputy Master Hua Wuqiu as a possibility. Moreover, he had already lost his powers; even if he wanted to come, he would be powerless. The remaining Deputy Master must either be Hua Wuqiu's father or her mother. Judging by the woman's physique, she didn't seem like a mother figure. Therefore, it was highly likely that this person was Master Lin from Dominion Villa.
Thinking of this made my heart race even more. I looked up and saw the mysterious woman nodding slightly and softly humming in response.
I was sure I had heard that voice before, but I couldn't recall who it belonged to.
Sang Xin? Wei Qu? Yang Mi? Each girl I had interacted with in the villa flashed through my mind, but I quickly dismissed them all; none of them were her.
Before I could continue my thoughts, Tang Seng cleared his throat and gestured for everyone else to step back. "Everyone retreat to at least ten meters away!"
Sha Monk and Sima Sanguang complied and stepped back. Kong Xuan hesitated for a moment but then followed suit. Only Hua Wuqiu pouted and asked, "Why?"
"Wu Que!" Tang Seng shouted sternly.
Wait, did Tang Seng actually dare to yell at the Deputy Master's daughter like that? This felt off.
Just as Hua Wuqiu was about to get angry, the mysterious woman stepped forward and linked arms with her, whispering something in her ear. After pulling Hua Wuqiu aside gently, she finally followed the mysterious woman with a pout.
Tang Seng took out a box from his robe and carefully opened it. Inside, a page of the Book of Life and Death slowly floated up, hovering in the air and gently undulating.
Huh? Wasn't the Book of Life and Death already transformed into a magic array? How did another page of this treasure emerge? Was this a different page or was it that the previous magic array never contained the treasure at all?
"What is going on with this Book of Life and Death?" I asked in astonishment.
"Forgot to tell you, the formation in your hands is just a half-finished product." Tang Seng smiled lightly, "How could we easily hand over the formation to you? I have several more half-finished products like this one!"
Then, as if showcasing a treasure, Tang Seng pulled out three or four golden spheres from his body and placed them beside his feet. Clearly, he also possessed treasures like a Spatial Bag.
Kong Xuan's words echoed in my ears. Indeed, how could they not be on guard against me for something so important? Although I knew this was only natural, I couldn't help but feel anger rising within me. I coldly asked, "So what should I do next?"
Hearing this, Tang Seng looked at me with a strange expression. After a while, a hint of a mocking smile appeared on his lips. "It's simple. Hold the Book of Life and Death in one hand and the formation in the other, recite the incantation, and use the energy from the Book of Life and Death to activate the formation."
After all that, I still had to use the energy from the Book of Life and Death to activate the formation. Who else in this world could wield the energy from the Book of Life and Death besides me?
I stepped forward, grasping the Book of Life and Death in my left hand and holding the golden sphere in my right hand. I softly recited the incantation 'Hongmu Naan Dachi Gongmu,' thinking that since this golden sphere wasn't part of the formation, it wouldn't matter if I completed the incantation.
As soon as I finished reciting the incantation, a stream of air emanated from the Book of Life and Death. This stream was composed of two intertwined currents: one warm and the other cool. These two distinctly different currents spiraled around each other, slowly yet steadily penetrating deeper into my body through my left hand.
At the same time, two corresponding currents emerged within me, intertwining with the invading air stream. Gradually, these currents began to thicken and move faster. In the end, I felt as if there were two balls rolling rapidly inside me—one warm and one cool.
Just when I was bewildered by this sensation, the two balls stopped at my abdomen and spun rapidly for several turns before suddenly colliding. I felt as if a bomb had exploded within me; with a loud bang, I became empty inside and could no longer feel my body. To be precise, I couldn't feel any organs below my head.
