A passing traveler through the heavens

Chapter 159 Fatal Curve

Since Ji Lin successfully eliminated the evil spirits in the town that day, time has flown by, and now more than a week has passed since they left that puppet town.

On this very day, sunlight filtered through the dense foliage onto the forest path, and Huan'er was focused on driving her car forward.

Suddenly, her view was blocked by two cars parked haphazardly in the middle of the road.

The two cars looked like they had just been in a violent collision; their bodies were twisted and deformed, and parts were scattered all over the ground. With no other choice, Huan'er had to slam on the brakes and bring the car to a steady stop on the side of the road.

As the brakes screech, Ji Lin, who had been fast asleep in the back seat, suddenly opened his eyes and woke up from his dream.

He rubbed his sleepy eyes, and when he saw the situation in front of him, he opened the car door and jumped out without saying a word.

After standing still, Ji Lin first stretched out a big yawn to loosen his stiff body, and then quickly walked towards the two cars that had been involved in the accident.

After getting closer and taking a closer look, he was surprised to find that apart from the two badly damaged vehicles, there wasn't a single person in sight.

A sense of doubt arose in Ji Lin's mind, and he decided to use the magical power of the Rabbit Talisman to investigate the situation further.

He flashed forward like lightning, speeding ahead along the road. A moment later, he turned back, but his expression became increasingly serious.

It turned out that he discovered a dense wire fence had been set up in the middle of the road not far ahead, making it extremely difficult for vehicles to pass.

Ji Lin frowned and pondered for a moment before turning back to his car.

He reached into the car and opened the door. He bent down and took out the detection radar that had been sitting in the car. However, when he turned on the radar and looked at the screen, he was stunned—the scene displayed on the screen shocked him!

Ji Lin looked closely and saw that many red dots had appeared in the forest in front of him. Under normal circumstances, any being with black aura would be displayed on the detection radar.

However, the color of these red dots is not intense enough to be considered a low-level evil spirit.

Ji Lin wondered to himself, "What exactly is going on?" So, without hesitation, he used his Heavenly Eye to carefully observe the forest in front of him.

Ji Lin was truly astonished when he saw it!

The forest was filled with a soaring resentment, so intense that it seemed to dye the entire sky black.

Based on this, Ji Lin speculated that the number of people who had died tragically here must have been quite large.

Thinking of this, Ji Lin made a decisive move and leaped into the sky.

Seeing this, Huan'er and Xinghai followed closely behind and flew together into the sky. Standing high up, one can see far. At this moment, Ji Lin had an extremely wide field of vision. He soon discovered a clearing filled with abandoned vehicles deep in the forest.

Just as Ji Lin was about to investigate further, a sharp gunshot suddenly rang out from the open space.

Ji Lin dared not delay. He flashed and sped toward the open space, landing outside the open space in the blink of an eye.

As soon as he landed, Ji Lin saw three figures standing not far ahead with their backs to him.

What was strange was that the three of them were surrounded by a lot of black energy, making them look extremely sinister and terrifying. Ji Lin frowned slightly, and a hint of vigilance flashed in his eyes.

In the blink of an eye, Ji Lin waved his right hand and instantly took out a pistol from the system space.

He skillfully aimed at the three men, then decisively pulled the trigger. Three shots rang out, and the three bullets accurately struck the bodies of the three men.

Although all three shots hit their targets, the three men did not seem to be greatly affected.

They only had some blood on them, and other than that, it was as if nothing else had happened.

Three muffled gunshots pierced the air, and all three felt a sharp pain in their bodies at the same time. They instinctively turned around, but the scene before them made Ji Lin's stomach churn, and he almost couldn't help but vomit.

The three people standing in front of him were all deformed!

Everyone's appearance was distorted beyond recognition. Some had severely misaligned facial features, some had extremely disproportionate limbs, and one even had two heads.

This bizarre and repulsive appearance is simply beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

The three deformed men opened their blood-red mouths and let out a piercing roar at Ji Lin, then pounced on him like hungry wolves.

Ji Lin reacted quickly, kicking each of the three men three times.

With three muffled thuds, the three men flew backward like kites with broken strings, crashing heavily to the ground.

Ji Lin gave them no chance to catch their breath. He stretched his right hand toward the sky, and in an instant, the starry sea that had been hidden in the air transformed into a long sword that gleamed with cold light, which landed steadily in his hand.

Immediately afterwards, Ji Lin turned to Huan'er in the air and said, "Go and save those people who were just chased by these monsters. Leave this to me."

After saying that, Huan'er nodded in agreement and then dashed off into the distance.

At this moment, Ji Lin refocused his attention on the three enemies in front of him.

He gripped his longsword tightly and swung it sharply at the three men. Instantly, a powerful energy surge roared out, sweeping towards the three deformed men who had not yet gotten up, as if it were a tangible force.

Pulled by this terrifying force, the three were lifted into the air without any resistance, violently thrown into the sky by gravity, and then plummeted to the ground with a series of loud thuds.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ji Lin quickly closed in on the three men. With a flash of sword light, three sharp sword energies slashed through the air and accurately struck the necks of the three deformed men.

With a few soft thuds, three heads flew high into the air, blood splattering everywhere. At this moment, these three deformed individuals completely lost their life.

"Hmph, I'd like to see how you'll survive now!" Ji Lin looked at the decapitated corpses on the ground, spat at them disdainfully, then sheathed his sword and turned to chase after Huan'er in the direction she had gone.

These three people were indeed never to wake up again; the light of their lives had been extinguished.

When Ji Lin found Huan'er, what he saw made his heart tighten.

Several men and women were still in a state of extreme terror, their bodies trembling, as if they had just experienced a terrible nightmare.

However, Huan'er remained unusually calm and brave, gently comforting the frightened people: "Don't be afraid, it's alright now, those three deformed people have been successfully eliminated by us."

When the still-shaken crowd heard Ji Lin say those words, the tension in their hearts instantly eased, and their emotions surged forth like a burst dam.

They were so excited that tears streamed down their faces, some even weeping with joy, embracing each other in gratitude for their escape from death.

The two cars that Ji Lin and his group encountered, parked in the middle of the road, belonged to the group in front of them.

Ji Lin then escorted them safely back to his vehicle and helped them call the police so that the officers could handle the aftermath promptly.

After everything was arranged, Ji Lin got back into his RV.

At this moment, he released the shadowy army that had been hiding in the shadows.

This seemingly tranquil forest actually harbors numerous deformed individuals. While a single deformed person may not pose a significant threat, as the saying goes, even a small mosquito is still meat.

Moreover, given the strength of these deformed individuals, the Shadow Legion could easily deal with them.

At Ji Lin's command, the Shadow Legion moved swiftly through the forest like ghosts, plunging the entire forest into chaos and bloodshed in an instant.

Shouts of killing and screams of agony rose and fell, never ceasing.

This one-sided massacre was swift and merciless, like a whirlwind sweeping away fallen leaves. In no time, the once gloomy and terrifying forest returned to its usual tranquility, except that there were now many deformed human corpses in the forest.
