God Slayer: Make Up for the Past

The rusty iron lock broke as Chu Feng pulled it hard, and the warehouse door made a harsh "creaking" sound and slowly opened.

Dim light shone through the crack in the door, illuminating part of the space inside the warehouse. The air was filled with the smell of dust, mixed with a faint metallic scent.

Chu Feng's heartbeat quickened. He gripped the dagger tightly in his hand and stepped into the warehouse cautiously.

Pan Yue, Su Yao and several soldiers followed closely behind, vigilantly observing the surrounding environment.

There were some miscellaneous items piled up in the warehouse, covered with thick dust, and it looked like no one had been there for a long time.

Chu Feng looked around and did not find anything unusual, nor did he see any trace of the Blood Moon Cult.

"There's nothing here?" Su Yao asked doubtfully.

"Something's wrong." Chu Feng frowned. He felt that the atmosphere here was a little weird and too quiet.

"The sign clearly points here, so why is there nothing there?"

Pan Yue walked to a wooden box, reached out to brush away the dust on it, revealing the mark engraved on the box, which was exactly the same as the mark they had seen before.

"The sign is definitely there, but there doesn't seem to be any danger here."

Chu Feng walked to the depths of the warehouse, his eyes scanning every corner. Suddenly, his gaze stopped at a corner.

There were some tattered cloths piled there, and underneath the cloths, something seemed to be trembling slightly.

He walked over quickly and pulled back the cloth, revealing a figure huddled in the corner.

The man was in tattered clothes and covered in blood, seemingly seriously injured. He raised his head and looked at Chu Feng weakly, his eyes filled with fear and despair.

"Save...save me..." he said in a weak voice.

According to common sense, Chu Feng should remain vigilant. After all, this is the secret base of the Blood Moon Cult, and anyone could be an enemy.

But when he looked at the dying man in front of him, a surge of sympathy and pity welled up in his heart.

"Who are you?" Chu Feng asked.

"I... I was captured by them..." the man said intermittently, "They... they wanted to sacrifice me to the Blood Moon..."

Chu Feng's heart sank. He knew how cruel the Blood Moon Cult's sacrificial rituals were, and he couldn't bear to watch this man being sacrificed.

"Don't be afraid, I will save you." Chu Feng said. He reached out to help the man up and prepared to take him out of the warehouse.

Pan Yue and Su Yao were a little worried when they saw this.

"Chu Feng, be careful, there might be a trap!" Pan Yue warned.

"I know, but we can't just stand by and watch someone die." Chu Feng said. He supported the man and slowly walked towards the warehouse door.

At this moment, the man suddenly showed a ferocious expression, his eyes turned blood red, and a powerful evil force burst out from him.

"Stupid human, you've been fooled!" He pushed Chu Feng away violently, and a sharp dagger appeared in his hand, stabbing it fiercely into Chu Feng's chest.

Chu Feng was caught off guard and was stabbed by the dagger. Blood instantly stained his clothes red. He stumbled back a few steps, looking at the person in front of him in disbelief.

"you……"

"Hehehe..." The man laughed coldly, "I am the most loyal servant of the Blood Moon God. Do you think I will be rescued so easily by you?"

He licked the blood on the dagger, his eyes filled with bloodthirsty madness, "Now, your blood will become the source of my power!"

The sound of the dagger piercing flesh was particularly clear in the silent warehouse.

Chu Feng groaned and looked down at the dagger on his chest in disbelief. Bright red blood dripped down the blade, staining his clothes red.

"Chu Feng!" Pan Yue and Su Yao exclaimed, and they rushed forward at the same time. Su Yao's face turned pale in an instant, and her eyes were filled with fear.

"Haha, how stupid! You were fooled so easily!" The pretender laughed wildly, his blood-red eyes flashing with a heart-pounding light, and a powerful evil aura burst out from him, full of oppression.

The surrounding soldiers retreated one after another with expressions of horror on their faces. They had never seen such a powerful force.

One of the soldiers trembled and said, "Is he... is he really a human? This power..."

Another soldier looked at the pretender with a fawning expression, his tone tinged with fear and flattery: "Your Excellency is so powerful and majestic that these lowly ants are powerless!"

Pan Yue stood in front of Chu Feng, drew his sword, and pointed the tip of the sword at the pretender: "Who on earth are you?"

The pretender glanced at Pan Yue with disdain: "You think you can challenge me? You are overestimating yourself!" He raised his hand, and a black energy condensed in his palm, forming a black energy ball, emitting a suffocating pressure.

Su Yao held Chu Feng's arm tightly, tears in her eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "Chu Feng, how are you? Are you okay?"

Chu Feng's consciousness gradually became blurred, but he knew that he could not fall down. He still had a lot of things to do, and he could not let Su Yao and Pan Yue worry about him.

His strong desire to survive and determination to protect his companions made him cling to the last glimmer of hope in his dying moments.

The warehouse was filled with the smell of blood and an atmosphere of fear. The pretender was high above, like a god who controlled everything, while Chu Feng was like a lamb to be slaughtered, appearing extremely weak and helpless.

At this critical moment, Chu Feng felt a warm current flowing through his body, and time seemed to stop at this moment.

Countless images flashed before his eyes, finally freezing at the moment he entered the warehouse.

The warehouse door creaked open again. Chu Feng took a deep breath, his eyes becoming resolute. He knew this was his last chance.

This time, he did not hesitate at all. The moment he lifted the cloth, the dagger in his hand stabbed out like lightning and hit the pretender right in the middle of his eyebrows.

The pretender fell to the ground before he could even let out a scream. His blood-red eyes gradually dimmed, and the evil aura dissipated.

"Chu Feng!" Su Yao saw Chu Feng recovering from his injury, and threw herself into Chu Feng's arms with tears in her eyes. She hugged Chu Feng tightly, her body trembling slightly.

Chu Feng gently stroked her back and comforted her softly, "It's okay, I'm okay..."

Pan Yue walked up to Chu Feng, patted his shoulder, and said with a complicated expression: "You..."

Chu Feng gently stroked Su Yao's back, feeling her slightly trembling body, and comforted her softly, "It's okay, I'm okay..." Su Yao raised her head in his arms, looking at him with tearful eyes, like a frightened deer who finally found support.

She hugged Chu Feng tightly, as if she would lose him if she let go.

Chu Feng's eyes were full of tenderness and pity. He gently wiped the tears from Su Yao's face, and an indescribable warmth surged in his heart.

Pan Yue walked up to Chu Feng, patted his shoulder, and said with a complicated expression: "How... did you do it?" He witnessed Chu Feng being stabbed by a dagger, and yet he stood here incredibly unharmed. All this was beyond his understanding.

Chu Feng smiled slightly, without explaining, and just said: "Now is not the time to talk about this." His gaze turned to the surroundings of the warehouse, and an uneasy premonition came to his heart.

Almost at the same time, many powerful evil creatures suddenly appeared around the warehouse. They had twisted bodies, hideous faces, and emitted a disgusting stench.

They surged out from the shadows, surrounded Chu Feng and the others, and emitted bursts of shrill roars.

"Be careful!" Chu Feng shouted softly, drew out his sword, and a cold light flashed on the blade.

Pan Yue also drew his sword and fought alongside Chu Feng. He knew that a fierce battle was inevitable.

The battle is about to break out.

These evil creatures were extremely fast, powerful, and numerous, and Chu Feng and Pan Yue were temporarily caught in a tough battle.

Chu Feng used the surrounding environment to create some simple traps, slowing down the attack speed of the evil creatures.

Pan Yue, with his agile body, attracted the attention of most of the evil spirits and bought precious time for Chu Feng.

Chu Feng's eyes were cold, and the sword in his hand danced like the wind. Every swing took the life of an evil creature.

He was agile and moved freely among the evil creatures like a flash of black lightning.

Pan Yue's swordsmanship was sharp and every move was deadly. Each sword strike accurately hit the vital points of the evil creatures.

The battle lasted for a long time. The floor of the warehouse was already filled with the corpses of evil creatures, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

Chu Feng and Pan Yue were also covered in blood, but their eyes remained firm, with no intention of retreating.

During the battle, Chu Feng discovered that the appearance of these evil creatures did not seem accidental. Although their attacks were fierce, they lacked order and seemed more like they were trying to cover up something.

He noticed that before the evil creatures appeared, some places in the warehouse seemed to have undergone subtle changes. Some goods that were originally neatly arranged became messy, and some boxes that were originally closed were opened.

Chu Feng's heart moved, and a bold guess emerged in his mind.

While fending off the attacks of the evil creatures, he carefully observed the surrounding environment, trying to find more clues.

Finally, he found a secret door in a corner of the warehouse. The secret door was hidden very cleverly and could not be found at all if one did not observe carefully.

"Pan Yue, cover me!" Chu Feng shouted to Pan Yue.

Pan Yue understood what he meant and increased the intensity of his attack, attracting more evil spirits to his side to buy time for Chu Feng.

Chu Feng took the opportunity to rush to the secret door and pushed it open with force.

Behind the secret door is a deep passage, and no one knows where it leads to.

Chu Feng glanced at the passage, then looked at Pan Yue who was still fighting, took a deep breath, and said, "Let's go!" Chu Feng jumped into the passage first, and Pan Yue followed closely behind.

The passage was pitch black and filled with the smell of damp earth.

Chu Feng turned on the lighting device in his hand. The faint light illuminated a short distance ahead, and the rough rock walls on both sides of the passage could be vaguely seen.

"The appearance of these evil spirits is extremely unusual," Pan Yue observed his surroundings vigilantly. "Their purpose doesn't seem to be to kill us, but rather to delay us."

Chu Feng nodded, agreeing with Pan Yue's assessment. "I noticed some signs in the warehouse, as if someone had moved something shortly before the battle."

They continued to go deeper into the passage, and a faint metallic smell gradually filled the air.

At the end of the passage, there appeared a heavy metal door covered with complex patterns, like some kind of ancient seal.

"This door..." Chu Feng touched the cold metal with his hand, "It doesn't feel right."

Pan Yue carefully observed the patterns on the door, frowning.

"I seem to have seen these patterns somewhere..." He tried to recall. Suddenly, his expression changed. "This is... a simplified version of the ancient forbidden technique!"

Chu Feng was shocked, "Ancient prohibition? How could such a thing appear here?" Ancient prohibitions are famous for their powerful force and complex structure, and are usually used to seal extremely dangerous objects or creatures.

"It seems we have found the key." Chu Feng took a deep breath and took out a small device from his backpack.

This is a decoder specially made by Su Yao for him, which can break some simple restrictions.

Pan Yue stood guard on the side while Chu Feng began to operate the decoder.

The decoder emitted a slight humming sound, and a blue beam of light was projected onto the metal door, moving slowly along the lines.

As time passed, the patterns on the metal door began to emit a faint glow, which contrasted with the blue light emitted by the decoder, creating a strange scene.

Suddenly, the metal door creaked open with a dull thud. A chilling air gushed out from the crack, sending chills down Chu Feng and Pan Yue's spine.

Behind the door was a spacious underground space with a huge metal device in the center, surrounded by countless complex wires and pipes.

The surface of the device flickered with an eerie red light and emitted a low humming sound, like a beating heart.

"What is this?" Pan Yue looked at the device in front of him in surprise, his eyes full of confusion.

Chu Feng also felt a palpitation. This device gave him an extremely dangerous feeling.

He approached the device cautiously, carefully observing its structure and operation.

"Wait!" Pan Yue suddenly called out to Chu Feng, "Look over there!"

Chu Feng looked in the direction of Pan Yue's finger, and saw a large amount of weapons, equipment and supplies piled up in the corner of the underground space, including some unidentified objects covered with black cloth.

Chu Feng's heart moved, and he quickly walked to the covered objects and pulled away the black cloth.

Under the cloth, there were corpses wearing night watch uniforms...

"This..." Chu Feng widened his eyes and looked at the scene in disbelief. A chill ran from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

Pan Yue walked over to Chu Feng, his face solemn, "It seems we've discovered a shocking secret..."

Chu Feng slowly put down the cloth in his hand and turned his gaze to the buzzing metal device in the center, his eyes filled with complex emotions.

"This fortress..." Chu Feng whispered, "It's much more complicated than we imagined..."
