Tang Luo looked at Jack, nodding slightly as he said, “Good, I am not disappointed.”
“Good? Not disappointed?” Jack was stunned for a moment before smiling again. “These are your last words?”
He did not know that Tang Luo meant what he said.
The Resurrected in front of him was made of pure evil.
By eliminating a creature of pure evil would inevitably net him a great amount of virtuous merit power.
Resentful ghosts, crazy monsters, and the like were similar to the Resurrected in front of him. They were creatures of pure evil.
Even extremely evil people, such as Jack, who was beside him, had the possibility of repenting and becoming good.
One could choose to make him repent to gain the power of virtuous merit.
Of course, this option did not exist for Tang Luo. He only knew how to cause a physical transformation. Even if he tried to cause a spiritual transformation, it would still be through physical means.
Moreover, the creature of pure evil before him was truly rejected by all things in heaven and earth. It was not qualified to exist, and there was no possibility it would repent.
Not to mention Tang Luo, even Gautama would not be able to make this creature repent.
The power of virtuous merits gained from eliminating such things was more than just punishing the wicked in similar situations.
The Resurrected dealt with Scott with frightening speed. It then grabbed a corpse at its feet and started to eat again. Only this time, it chewed twice and stopped moving because Tang Luo was looking at it, staring hard.
The Resurrected then dropped the body in its hand and looked at Tang Luo. A strange emotion gradually emerged in its chaotic demented mind.
A feeling that had never appeared. That emotion was primitive and ancient—it was fear!
Of course, being afraid did not mean that the Resurrected would run away.
On the contrary, the emotions that it had never felt before, made it go berserk. Its instincts urged it to drop the food in its hand and grab the electric chair beside it. A chair that was firmly fixed to the ground and was extremely heavy. It felt like a small stone in the hands of the Resurrected, as it held it with ease.
If not for the large number of tranquilizers or even lethal drugs, the cell here would not be able to trap this terrifying force.
Whoosh—
Accompanied by a dull roar, the electric chair was hurled at Tang Luo. Its various components flew around madly in mid-air and crashed onto the ground, with sounds of metal hitting the surface. The fragments of the electric chair shattered and scattered around.
Jack screamed in pain. His arm was unfortunately struck by the debris, creating another hideous wound.
As for Tang Luo, he stood beside the electric chair as though he had not moved.
It seemed that the Resurrected had misjudged the trajectory. Also, the debris happened to fly right past Tang Luo’s body.
He seemed to be lucky.
“Haha.”
Jack, who was screaming in pain earlier, began to laugh. He was very pleased that this detective appeared to be so scared until he dared not move.
Jack had mentioned before that Tang Luo destroyed everything. Even if the Resurrected was able to follow its instinct and ripped apart Tang Luo, what about after that? The Resurrected would leave, and neither Jack nor the organization could catch such a monster.
As for eliminating it? It was extremely difficult.
Not to mention reacquiring this unique material, and once again continue moving towards the door of immortality.
Moreover, this person’s two companions had already left. Everything about the organization would be exposed. Even if those all-powerful influential figures had the ability to whitewash the matter, he, Jack White, had already been ruined.
Jack hoped Tang Luo would feel limitless fear before he died.
His despair and anger must be repaid a million times!
“Kill him!”
“Kill him!”
Jack roared loudly, disregarding the wounds on his body.
Of course, he was unable to command the Resurrected. But the loud cries of naughty children would undoubtedly anger monsters like the Resurrected.
Jack had a smell that the Resurrected hated.
However, with a large living person like Tang Luo around, the Resurrected would not regard him as the first target.
Well, there was also a certain possibility of being killed by something thrown by the Resurrected.
Therefore, Jack’s position was very well-strategized. He leaned under the stone platform and contracted himself, revealing only his head to peep.
The sound of a crying baby came from the Resurrected’s mouth, and some sounded like cats meowing.
That was its voice.
Tang Luo bent down and picked up something from the electric chair ruins at his feet.
He tossed it up and down, weighing that item. It was a helmet, which was used to stabilize the head and apply electro-therapy. It was Professor Yang[1.Professor Yang Yongxin is a highly controversial Chinese clinical psychiatrist who advocated and practiced electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) without anesthesia or muscle relaxants as a cure for alleged Internet addiction in adolescents.]’s style.
Without opening up his arms, with just a mere flick of his wrist, Tang Luo hurled it!
The cries of the Resurrected stopped as the sounds of the rocks crumbling and falling to the ground resonated.
The helmet that was still in Tang Luo’s hands one second ago was already embedded in the wall.
The Resurrected’s head had turned into a mass of bloody foam, while the blood even splashed on the ceiling above their heads.
Jack’s roars stopped abruptly.
“Its life force is tenacious.” Tang Luo watched the Resurrected.
The headless creature did not collapse. Rather, it continued standing upright. Flesh tentacles protruded from its neck, dancing and entangling like poisonous snakes.
A moment later, it regenerated its head. The only difference was that the few strands of hair that were there previously were gone!
Poor thing!
Roar!
