Lords of the Old Ones? I thought it was a speed bump.

Chapter 28 City-Destroying Gate Beast: The 3-Eyed Cursed Killer

Bai Tingting never dreamed that there would be such a terrifying human face in the world.

That's not the color that normal human skin should have.

Instead, it was bluish-gray, like an old parchment that had been left untouched for too long.

The bloodless lips appeared almost transparent white.

His mouth was slightly open, as if he was silently calling out something.

It's like trying to inhale the last breath of air that couldn't be inhaled.

What was most unsettling were the three eyes, their pupils covered with a layer of gray.

His pupils were dilated and filled with fine blood vessels, like red cracks on parched earth.

The moment Bai Tingting saw that face, she felt as if she were immersed in ice water.

Even more terrifying, the three bloodshot eyes actually followed the sound of footsteps and looked in her direction.

As she sensed their gazes about to meet, Bai Tingting felt a strong wave of nausea wash over her.

She had a strong premonition that if she met those three gazes, she would be so frightened that she would lose her mind on the spot.

No...no no no no no no! Don't look at me like that!

Just a fraction of a second before Bai Tingting was desperately struggling to avoid meeting the gazes of the three pairs of eyes.

A fist the size of a clay pot suddenly appeared and struck the dead man's face with lightning speed.

*Thud!* Instantly, that already unsightly cheek was dented inwards from the blow.

As the fist slowly retracted, the face could hardly be called a face anymore.

The once clearly visible facial features were now all squeezed together.

It looks exactly like a postmodern abstract sculpture.

Huh? What's going on?

Before Bai Tingting could react, Lin Jue had already taken two steps back and pulled her out of the pit by her wrist.

Soon, the warm sun shone on the two of them again, and Bai Tingting finally felt much more relaxed.

For the first time, she discovered how wonderful it felt to be alive.

Seeing the squad leader's still-shaken appearance, Lin Jue couldn't help but shake his head and say:

"Didn't I tell you not to come over? That kind of thing isn't for just anyone to see."

Ten minutes ago, Lin Jue was digging downwards with his bare hands, trying to widen the pit, which was as tall as a person.

But as he sliced ​​off a piece of rock as easily as slicing tofu, the first dead face appeared.

When that pale, three-eyed face appeared before Lin Jue.

He stared into those three eerie, bloodshot eyes for a few seconds... then slapped them across the face.

*Slap!* The crisp sound of a slap echoed in the shallow pit, sounding somewhat muffled.

After that slap, his face looked like it had been turned into a greasy mess.

Salty, sour, and spicy flavors all rolled out at once, and then quickly disappeared without a trace.

...What is that? Is it some kind of plant? It looks so ugly.

This sudden discovery did not initially delay Lin Jue's digging process.

He continued working as if he had accidentally killed a fly.

But then, a second, third, and fourth face appeared in the pit.

They appeared from all directions, emitting strange laughs as they surrounded Lin Jue.

The third eye on his forehead stared intently at him, its gaze filled with an ominous aura.

It was only then that Lin Jue realized that this must be the "plane collapse" phenomenon that Gao Guizhi had mentioned.

To correct and reconcile the logical contradictions of this world is tantamount to destroying the very essence of this world.

Besides the paradoxical demons, this plane itself would also put up a corresponding resistance... but Lin Jue did not expect that this resistance would be so insignificant.

After those dead faces appeared, Lin Jue just pursed his lips impatiently.

Then, like driving piles, they were flattened one by one and driven back into the damp rock wall.

Clearly, these strange creatures had no effect on Lin Jue whatsoever.

He just felt that the texture of the slap was a bit disgusting, like slapping wet, sticky clay.

What Lin Jue didn't know was that the official name of this face in the "Paradox Administration Bureau" was "City Destroyer-level Gate Beast. Three-Eyed Curse Killer", a notorious mental monster.

Whenever a human makes eye contact with one of these gate beasts, their sanity will decrease drastically and they will experience all sorts of bizarre hallucinations.

Given that the condition of "eye contact" is too easy to achieve, and that these gate beasts often appear in groups.

That's why they receive the high rating of "city-destroying level" and cause headaches for ordinary superhumans.

Unfortunately, Lin Jue's mental attributes are always zero, and his sanity is always zero.

Using psychological attacks on him is like performing a striptease on a blind person—you can dance all you want, but I'll consider it a loss if I even glance at you.

Of course, although Lin Jue was not afraid of these dead heads at all, they obviously had great killing power against ordinary people.

For example, if Bai Tingting had been caught off guard and made to look directly into those three eyes just now.

She would definitely have a mental breakdown on the spot and immediately trigger "delusional syndrome" to die a violent death.

With that in mind, after taking the pink girly water bottle from Bai Tingting...

Lin Jue took a large gulp without hesitation, wiped the water from the corner of his mouth, and immediately gave the order:

"Class monitor, go tell the teacher to set up a cordon around this pit and make sure all students stay away from it."

"...Okay, I understand. Please be careful."

Bai Tingting also understood how terrifying the dead face she saw in the deep pit was.

She quickly turned around and prepared to run towards Teacher Duan Hong, wanting to tell everyone that the "plane collapse" had already happened and that they should never make eye contact with strange things.

But after taking a few steps, Bai Tingting couldn't help but look back at Lin Jue, who had jumped back into the pit.

It was such a dangerous thing, yet he handled it with such ease.

So this is what they call a superhuman...? It seems I don't even have the right to stand next to him.

Thinking of this, Bai Tingting felt a sharp pain in her chest.

But she still bit her lip hard and hurriedly ran to report the situation to Teacher Duan Hong.

But in that instant, a bold idea suddenly came to her.

That is to get into the "Hero Course" at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.

If she can pass the "Hero Course," she will be able to become the person standing behind the superhumans.

Only in this way can they retain the right to meet with Lin Jue.

However, Lin Jue was completely unaware of Bai Tingting's girlish thoughts.

At this moment, he was engrossed in the thrill of whack-a-mole and digging in the dirt.

In this small but deep pit, Lin Jue had only been digging for a short while.

A sinister, dead face would suddenly appear and glare at him resentfully.

But in the next second, that blood-stained fist would also smash into that face, smashing it to pieces on the spot.

And so, the Three-Eyed Cursed Killers kept spawning all around, and Lin Jue kept flattening them.

I don't know how much time passed, but night fell over the winding mountain road.

Lin Jue finally managed to dig a small downhill path with his bare hands.

After hundreds of those strange ghost faces were casually smashed, they never reappeared for some time.
