”Leave, quick, leave this place!” yelled Pan Jin.

The number of people collapsing to the ground was still increasing. Everyone felt like they were going to be the next victim. Black blood stuck in their throat, turning into black charcoal and scattering in ashes. No one would want to end up like that!

The Magicians of the Golden Battle Hunters started fleeing, rushing toward the manor.

More people continued to fall as they were fleeing. There were more than twenty casualties already...

When they finally reached the barrier to run away from the random massacre of the invisible demon, they saw their leader Ge Ming stopping the people from leaving the ranches.

”Leader, we are under attack by something unknown. It seems it could spread through the air at a terrifying rate without any sign,” Pan Jin's voice sounded like he was about to burst into tears.

He had been a Hunter for over ten years, fighting against lots of terrifying demon creatures and monsters, and had gotten used to seeing his comrades dying. However, he almost had a mental breakdown as he witnessed the unexplainable deaths of the people around him, dying as if they had all been poisoned. His only thought was to get his teammates away from the place!

Ge Ming stepped aside slightly to let Pan Jin see what was happening outside the barrier...

Black blood. The whole place was covered in black blood. The rather viscous liquid was flowing across the grassland outside the ranches, and had accumulated into a small pool following the slope.

One black corpse after another laid on the ground. When a random breeze swept past, their skin scattered in the air like flying ashes!

”Those who left the boundary of the ranches are all dead, not even a single survivor!” said Ge Ming to the people fleeing for their lives in a deep voice.

The Golden Battle Hunters had brought almost a thousand people. The group that conducted the operation at the manor only consisted of a small part. The remainder of the group was on standby outside the barrier, preventing the people of the Black Vatican from escaping after they were alerted. The ranches were quite spacious, so they needed quite a number of people to guard every direction.

When the people under Pan Jin's lead started vomiting black blood, the people outside were showed the same terrifying symptoms too! Some immediately backed off in fear, but those who stepped outside the boundary died in less than fifty steps...

As a result, the number of corpses that turned into black ashes outside the barrier was the highest. The black blood could already form a stream.

The leader Ge Ming almost lost his mind when that happened. The Golden Battle Hunters had more than a thousand people, yet almost four hundred had died already from some unknown cause. Almost half of their group was wiped out! Most terrifyingly, they had no idea what had killed them, and were clueless who the next victim was going to be. The ranches had suddenly turned into Hell with black corpses scattered across the place. On top of that, those who tried to run away would immediately fall victim to it...

”You can't leave, you must not go out there!” ordered Ge Ming sternly.

”I don't believe it, I can't wait and die here. Their deaths were too horrible. It must be a contagious disease spreading through air!” A female Hunter had totally lost her calm. She ran out of the barrier despite others' efforts trying to stop her.

Pan Jin wanted to stop her, but Ge Ming immediately grabbed onto him.

Pan Jin lowered his head and realized that he almost stepped outside the fence of the ranch. Meanwhile, the female Hunter had already run ten meters past...

”Ahhh!”
