After making sure they had arrived at a safe place, the Anthony family visibly relaxed.
The running around just now had consumed most of their energy. Now that they had relaxed, the three of them sat down on the ground without caring about their image.
After they gradually recovered, they began to feel sleepy again. It was already late at night, and according to the Anthony family's usual schedule, they should have gone to bed long ago.
Because they fled in a hurry, they didn't have time to take anything with them, but fortunately Gu Shi had been wearing his space ring, which contained a lot of daily necessities.
Gu Shi generously lent two sets of blankets to Anthony and the others, and the four of them simply slept on the floor.
Even though the hall was noisy, Anthony's tired parents fell asleep quickly.
Although Gu Shi was lying in bed like them, he had no intention of falling asleep. He just closed his eyes and rested.
As time passed, the hall gradually became quiet and most people fell asleep.
Gu Shi inexplicably fell into a nightmare. He knew clearly that he was dreaming, but he could not wake up completely.
In the dim environment, a tall figure stood in front of him and pushed him away from danger.
Gu Shi could feel a strong sense of sadness and reluctance, mixed with a bit of inexplicable guilt. He stretched out his hand as if wanting to grab something.
“No, don’t!!”
With a shrill scream, Gu Shicai finally broke free from the nightmare.
Gu Shi sat up suddenly and muttered to himself, "What was that just now...?"
Looking back now, Gu Shi could hardly remember what he had just dreamed. He could only vaguely judge from his vague impression that the scream seemed to be Anthony's voice.
"Brother Gu Shi, what's wrong with you?"
Gu Shi's sudden standing up caught the attention of Anthony who was sleeping next to him. Because what happened today was so exciting, he had not yet successfully fallen asleep like his parents.
Gu Shi turned to look at Anthony. He didn't know if it was because of the dream just now, but when he saw the three of them, he had a vague idea in his mind that he must protect them next time.
Gu Shi fell into deep thought. He could tell that this idea did not belong to him. This feeling was a bit like the palpitations he had that day. Could it be some kind of hint from this illusion?
Because of Gu Shi's silence, Anthony became more and more worried about his condition.
Anthony sat up straight away, moved towards Gu Shi twice, grabbed his arm and shook it, "Brother Gu Shi? Brother Gu Shi!"
Gu Shi finally reacted and explained, "I'm fine. I just had a nightmare and haven't recovered yet."
He patted Anthony's back again and said, "It's already very late. You should go to bed quickly. Be careful not to grow taller if you stay up late."
Anthony said reluctantly, "I understand. Good night, Brother Gu Shi."
"Good night."
After coaxing Anthony, Gu Shi tried several more times to piece together the dream, but each time ended in failure.
Gu Shi sighed. There was nothing he could do. In this situation, he could only choose to give up this idea.
Fortunately, nothing else unusual happened afterwards, and Gu Shi spent the night safely.
Life was peaceful for the next three days. Except for occasional friction between people in the hall, the situation outside the shelter seemed to be getting better.
Although Gu Shi also wanted to go and see the situation outside in person, he gave up the idea when he thought about the Anthony family mixed in with so many people.
It would be bad if something unexpected happened to them here while he was away, so the most Gu Shi could do was go to the entrance of the shelter and observe the situation nearby.
At the same time, Gu Shi was also paying attention to the idle chatter among the crowd.
From the mouths of those who entered the shelter later, Gu Shi heard that the city's top officials seemed to have found the source of the disaster and were preparing to deal with it.
As long as some time passes, they will be able to return to their normal lives and won't have to stay here any longer.
In addition, because there is currently no way to restore the consciousness of those who are under control, and the prisons in the city are limited, in order to restore order in the city as soon as possible, special measures can only be taken to deal with some of the people.
This policy caused an uproar in the hall. Gu Shi heard that many people were worried about their relatives and friends, and many people were even trying to bribe the management in order to save their lives.
But these things have nothing to do with Gu Shi and the others.
What Gu Shi was most concerned about was the city's preparations to attack Asher. He had a vague premonition that this should be the final test.
As long as he can successfully get through this period, his mission will be accomplished.
So in the following time, Gu Shi became more vigilant. Generally speaking, the final big boss is not easy to defeat, so he has to be more careful.
At night, when everyone should have been asleep, an unexpected change occurred in the hall.
Gu Shi witnessed with his own eyes that several people in the hall suddenly transformed into very familiar cocoons almost in an instant.
Before anyone else could react, these smaller purple cocoons flashed twice and then exploded with a bang.
A lot of disgusting mucus and blood and flesh splattered, and along with the explosion, many familiar purple spots appeared.
Suddenly, terrible screams and wails erupted from the crowd, and chaos began to spread in the hall. Fortunately, Gu Shi and his team were in a relatively remote location, and there were no people who had turned into purple cocoons around them.
Out of caution, Gu Shi had never taken off the protective gear, so when he looked at the purple spots floating in the hall, he did not feel panicked.
The Anthony family who were sleeping next to him were also awakened by the sudden scream.
Before they could react to what was happening, they saw groups of purple spots and their bodies automatically moved towards Gu Shi.
Gu Shi whispered to them, "Hurry, pack up, we have to move as soon as possible."
Because the incident happened suddenly, many people did not have time to escape and were controlled by the purple light spots. They even gave priority to those professionals as hosts.
There are many controlled professionals in this hall now, and Gu Shi cannot handle so many people alone. In order to ensure the safety of Anthony's family, they have to leave this place where a battle is about to take place as soon as possible.
So before they were involved in the fight, the four of them quickly left the place.
Gu Shi originally wanted to hide next door, but he didn't expect that the original manager here had also been controlled and was now killing people in the crowd, with many younger brothers around him.
After taking a glance at the scene in the hall from the door, he silently gave up the idea.
