Gods Must Not Be Gazed Upon! Two Moons Rise Together

The man wrapped in viscous flesh was the other patient imprisoned in the S-Rank Containment Facility.

Before he had shown any signs of contamination, Su Ziyu had shared a ward with this man for a time.

The man's surname was Huang, though no one knew his given name. Su Ziyu called him Old Huang. Back when they had lived together, he would mutter strange things every night. Whenever he spoke with the doctors and nurses, no one wanted to listen to his nonsense. Only the bored Su Ziyu would respond to him.

Every late night, Old Huang would climb out of bed and tell Su Ziyu about what he had seen that day...

He had once been an astronomer, but during one observation of the stars, he saw...

Light!

Su Ziyu remembered Old Huang's description clearly. He said he had seen a scene made up of hundreds of millions of luminous spheres, packed tightly together. Their arrangement completely defied humanity's laws of physics. Each sphere radiated a brilliance like the sun, yet they also resembled blown bubbles, casting strange colors from every angle.

Old Huang said he had seen only that blurry image before everything in front of him turned black. He knew nothing of what happened afterward. He did not think he had gone mad. During those years in the psychiatric hospital, whenever he had nothing to do, he would stare at the sky, hoping to see that mass of hundreds of millions of shining bubbles again.

After his former wardmate had been locked inside the S-Rank Containment Facility, Su Ziyu finally understood the meaning behind those words.

Based on the dark knowledge Su Ziyu possessed, it was highly likely that...

Old Huang had witnessed an evil god!

He had seen an Unknown-Tier Forbidden Entity!

Gods must not be peered at!

That was a law of the extraordinary world!

It was also an ultimate truth bought by those before them with their lives and blood!

The Ghoul Cult's assault had damaged the formation set up around the S-Rank Containment Facility. Old Huang killed the guards and escaped, arriving atop the tallest building in this psychiatric hospital to gaze up at the stars...

In the end, he completely lost control and mutated.

Within the All-Seeing True Eye's vision, Old Huang's Mental Body was black as coal, without the faintest trace of light.

Clearly, Old Huang had completely become a monster.

Su Ziyu had no way to remove the contamination from the Mental Body of a human who had completely lost control. The only way to free Old Huang now was to let him rest in eternal sleep.

Looking at that agonized face, Su Ziyu let out a long breath and smiled faintly.

"Old Huang, you will be free soon."

At that moment, Old Huang threw back his head and let out a howl. The viscous flesh around him shot out like spears, stabbing toward Su Ziyu one after another.

Su Ziyu's expression remained calm. The tentacles behind him danced through the air, forming a shield before him. The viscous flesh was knocked away, while the blue worms composing it had their blood drained by the barbs on the tentacles. A thick mist of blood burst apart with a bang and scattered through the air.

Behind Su Ziyu—or rather, above the rooftop—a gigantic round figure appeared.

It was an eyeball!

An eyeball as enormous as a titan!

What made it tremble-inducing was that angelic feathered wings, equally colossal, extended from either side of the eyeball. Looking only at the feathers, one might think an angel had descended, but the single eye in the middle brimmed with malice.

"Eeya!"

The Dread Demon Eye let out a roar, its enormous body blotting out the sky. This was the form it had evolved after absorbing the blood of countless jelly-like monsters, and it was as huge as the full moon hanging in the night sky!

Dark-red light enveloped the Dread Demon Eye, shocking everyone in the hospital.

The Ghoul Cult priest had still hoped Su Ziyu would die inside the administrative building. But upon seeing that moon-sized eyeball, his heart nearly leaped from his chest. Worse still, the eye seemed to be a collection of all hatred. One glance was enough for negative emotions to overwhelm the mind.

"Forbidden... It is definitely a Forbidden Entity!"

The priest shook like a sieve. He stared at the ground in terror as cold sweat dripped from his forehead, unable to summon even the slightest strength to resist.

The armed squad stationed outside was also drawn to the enormous eyeball atop the administrative building.

"Captain! Look! What is that? What a huge eyeball!"

The captain, who had initially doubted Su Ziyu, endured the pain in his body and turned around. The instant he looked toward the rooftop, he froze.

For two seconds, he did not know what to say. His throat was painfully dry, and terror seemed to have painted itself across his face.

After a long while, he finally muttered hoarsely.

"He... no... it is not him! That power comes from the Abyss... It must... it must be a Forbidden Entity!"

"Quick! Find the signal device! I need to report the situation here to headquarters!"

One of the team members came back to his senses as well and said blankly,

"Captain, the signal devices were destroyed long ago... And... even if we had one, it would be useless... That is very likely a Forbidden Entity!"

River City, city center.

Couples on the streets, drivers in their cars, and elderly men and women dancing in the square all seemed frozen in place, staring dumbly in the same direction. A pale-red circular object had appeared in that patch of sky!

They were too far away to see that it was an eyeball, but they could see the dark-red spirituality radiating from the Dread Demon Eye as though it were tangible.

"Mom! There are two moons in the sky!"

A little boy tugged on his mother's arm and shouted excitedly.

The mother looked over. Her initially indifferent expression immediately turned terrified. She hurriedly covered the boy's eyes and said rapidly,

"Be good, Xiao Ming. Don't look at unclean things..."

"..."

"Notify the Special Affairs Department! Two moons have appeared in the sky!"

"Could some kind of monster have descended?"

"Did demons enter the city? Hiss... We have barely had a few good days. I do not want to die yet!"

"Hehehe, you young people just do not know enough. A heavenly phenomenon appearing in the sky may very well mean one of our human race's Morning Star Tier experts has broken through!"

"Hiss... Old man, that makes some sense! A heavenly phenomenon appearing—could our human race be gaining another Overlord-Tier expert?"

At that moment, the Special Affairs Department was a hive of activity. They were gathering materials, analyzing data, and answering telephones that would not stop ringing.

"Damn it! This is already the 103rd call! Do the public think we are blind? Of course we can see something that huge!"

A man in his early thirties cursed loudly with a cigarette dangling from his mouth.

He was a squad captain in the Special Affairs Department's Operations Division. His name was Wei Kang, and his codename was Fire Dragon.

After taking a hard drag from his cigarette, he quickly walked into the office on the other side.

This was a laboratory.

An old man stood by the window with his hands behind his back, staring at the sky. Technicians in white coats beside him tapped away at their computers.

The old man was the head of the Special Affairs Department. Everyone called him Professor Bai.

He was a master of mysticism, and his own strength had reached the Morning Star Tier. Many famous Special Affairs Department agents had been his students.

"Professor Bai... Many citizens are reporting that two moons have appeared in the sky!"

"I know..."

Professor Bai drew the curtains, then walked to a console and pressed several buttons. He said softly,

"Come look at this."

Wei Kang walked over to Professor Bai in confusion. The moment he looked at the screen, the cigarette nearly fell from his mouth.

A gigantic eyeball appeared on the enormous LCD display!

That red-glowing object was not a moon, but a titanic eyeball!

The discovery added another layer of terror to the man's anxious face...

"This is..."

Professor Bai's expression was equally grave as he said slowly,

"It is very likely... It is emitting spiritual energy from the Abyss, and the amount is immense. Our technology cannot detect it at all..."

At that point, Professor Bai paused. A barely concealed tremor appeared in his pupils as he whispered,

"According to our estimates... there may very well be a Forbidden Entity there!"

"Hiss!"

Wei Kang froze. He completely forgot about the cigarette in his mouth, swallowed, and said tremblingly,

"But... Ghost Hand has already led a team over there... He..."
