Upon hearing the sound, Li Yu immediately closed her eyes and entered her mental sea to investigate.

The little infant spirit was raising its tiny hand, pointing at the Nightmare Beast with a dissatisfied expression and wailing, as if it were complaining to Li Yu.

Li Yu couldn't help but feel puzzled, so he turned to the Nightmare Beast and asked:

What is he saying?

The Nightmare Beast feigned ignorance and stammered:

"Um... I don't know either. Maybe the little guy is hungry and wants to eat ghosts."

As it spoke, the Nightmare Beast hurriedly and quietly condensed a small ball of energy. Only after the infant spirit saw the energy ball did it stop its cries.

"See, isn't it all fixed now?" the Nightmare Beast reminded him.

Seeing that the infant spirit had calmed down and seemed to be in good condition, even somewhat cute, Li Yu finally felt relieved and said to the Nightmare Beast:

"You can keep an eye on him for now. I'll find ghosts to feed him along the way."

"Leave it to me with confidence," the Nightmare Beast replied immediately, its eyes filled with certainty.

Only after hearing Nightmare Beast's words did Li Yu feel relieved enough to leave.

After Li Yu's spiritual body disappeared, the Nightmare Beast turned its gaze to the infant spirit and mocked:

"Little guy, you think you can tattle like this? At least wait until you can talk properly before you do."

Before he could finish speaking, the Nightmare Beast instantly devoured the small ball of energy he had condensed once more.

"Waaaaah—"

The infant spirit waved its chubby hands, its little face puffed up in anger, expressing its dissatisfaction.

Li Yu has already led his team on their journey, preparing to continue westward along the dilapidated road.

But not long after, they discovered that the already abandoned road they were on ended there as well.

The group had no choice but to step back onto the damp ground and continue onward.

At this moment, Ma Yuanbai, who was walking at the front of the group, felt puzzled.

Judging from the current situation in Zhongzhou, there are basically no traces of any alien beasts left inside the defensive line.

Even the cities that were built were exactly the same as those described in the shelter's records.

He couldn't understand how, under such circumstances, the twelve cities of Zhongzhou could be rebuilt, yet not a single road connecting them had been constructed.

This is clearly very abnormal.

Thinking of this, Ma Yuanbai frowned and fell into deep thought.

The team had just left the abandoned road when they spotted a dilapidated van not far ahead. The van's entire rear wheel was stuck in a ditch and it was completely immobile.

Upon seeing the familiar van, Li Yu immediately dismounted and strode forward to examine it.

He approached and forcefully opened the side of the van, wanting to see what was inside.

The moment the side door was opened, a large, fat man suddenly pounced out and pinned Li Yu to the ground.

The fat man's eyes were filled with fear, and he kept screaming in terror:

"Get away! Get away!"

At the same time, he gripped a knife inlaid with a crystal core tightly in his right hand, waving it wildly in the air, seemingly trying to scare away any approaching enemies.

The people behind him were all shocked to see Li Yu fall to the ground.

They immediately activated their supernatural abilities, their bodies flashing with light and displaying an astonishing aura, ready to rescue Li Yu at any moment.

However, Li Yu quickly reached out to stop them, and instead shouted loudly at the fat man who was pressing down on her:

"Lin Han, it's me!"

Hearing someone call his name, Lin Han, who was in a state of extreme fear, suddenly froze.

He stopped swinging his knife, slowly lowered his head to look at the person beneath him, and stammered in surprise:

"You...you are...Li Yu?"

After confirming that everything was correct, Lin Han quickly climbed off Li Yu and looked around warily.

Li Yu also stood up and comforted Lin Han:

"Don't be afraid, these are all my friends. Lin Han, what are you doing here?"

"How did I get here? I..."

Lin Han then recalled his previous experience, his body trembled violently, and his face turned deathly pale.

"By the way, Uncle Lin."

Lin Han hurriedly returned to the van, and Li Yu immediately followed.

The two approached the van and looked inside together.

The car was filled with a strong, nauseating stench of blood.

The seats and roof were now stained crimson with blood, the streaks of blood a horrifying sight.

In the center of the pool of blood lay a middle-aged man, none other than Uncle Lin.

His eyes were closed at that moment, and he had clearly lost consciousness.

What surprised Li Yu even more was Uncle Lin's health.

Uncle Lin's body was now covered with arms and legs, densely intertwined.

The person resembled a centipede, with extra limbs filling the entire carriage.

"This is..." Li Yu's eyes widened in shock.

Lin Han was already sobbing uncontrollably, and began to explain:

"After the success of the lamb leg banquet in Wucheng, Uncle Lin has already negotiated his next business deal."

“We were planning to go to Bada Town, but we were suddenly attacked on the way and the car stopped moving.”

Lin Han choked up as he said:

"Uncle Lin was bitten while saving me, and the sheep were also taken away."

"I just wanted to use my superpower to heal Uncle Lin's wounds and save his life, but I never expected it to turn out like this... Waaah..." Lin Han could no longer suppress his grief and burst into tears.

Li Yu gently patted Lin Han's shoulder and stepped forward to carefully check on Uncle Lin's condition inside the van.

Apart from having dozens of extra arms and legs, Uncle Lin's body looked perfectly normal, without even a single wound.

No matter how much Li Yu shook him, Uncle Lin didn't react at all.
