"Huh? There are still survivors?!"
The cold, desolate voice, like a vengeful ghost from the depths of hell, rang out behind Su Luo, instantly sending chills down her spine.
when?
When did he get behind me?!
Su Luo instinctively tried to lift her foot to create distance between herself and the other person, but for a moment, she froze.
Oh no, I can't move!
Behind her, the eerie, pale hands, reeking of blood, moved forward from her neck, seemingly intimately but actually casually wrapping around Su Luo's neck, as if the next second would leave her lying dead on the spot.
"Don't move, or I can't guarantee what I might do."
Unable to see the monster behind him, he could only hear the other party's cold voice, like a death warrant etched into Su Luo's ears.
"Black cat ears?"
Lai Gui noticed the furry ears on Su Luo's head, paused for a moment, and then his tone was cold with a hint of doubt, a subtle respect, and a little bit of madness!
"Who are you?"
Why are there cat ears?!
The opponent pulled hard, and Su Luo's cat ears were pulled painfully, but he was unable to resist. This suppressed situation made Su Luo somewhat displeased and a little confused.
What does "Who am I?" mean?
Does the ghost here also know what's happening in the real world?
Su Luo wasn't that arrogant. The fact that the other party said that was most likely related to the cat ears that appeared on his head.
"I……"
Whether it was because the strange touch behind her touched the black coffin in her hair or for some other reason, Su Luo's vision blurred, and the shrunken black coffin suddenly expanded, growing into a coffin just the right size and shape for her to lie in. The lid opened and closed, enveloping Su Luo inside.
"Black, long, coffin..."
Seeing the thing that suddenly appeared in front of them and carried the female ghost away in an instant, the other party was stunned at first, and then burst into cheers of anticipation.
"It's her, it's her!"
"She's back! She's really back!!"
His words abruptly stopped, and Lai Gui raised his hand to cover his eyes, suppressing his inner excitement. "Haha, hahaha!"
"Sorry, we didn't take good care of you last time..."
"Now that you're back, stay forever!"
...
In just a few seconds, the lid of the black coffin opened again, and what came into view was no longer the lonely, eerie street, but a primeval forest.
Did they escape...?
Su Luo seemed somewhat shaken, as he had never been forced to such a state by a strange instant since his rebirth.
Six stars?
No, not only that, that eerie aura was very strange. If he hadn't spoken, Su Luo would have thought he was a person.
"It's probably more than eight stars. This Abyss is indeed full of hidden talents. I encountered a strange creature of about eight stars as soon as I entered. I don't know if I'm too lucky or too unlucky."
Zhao Jinlai didn't mention that high-star characters were everywhere here before we came. How lucky did he get to draw such a start?
As she left the long black coffin, the coffin automatically closed and shrank, flying back into her hair to become a hair clip again.
Over the next few days, Su Luo walked through the primeval forest. Fortunately, he hadn't forgotten the essential wilderness survival skills required in the apocalypse, and they came in handy here.
For three days and three nights, Su Luo walked through the forest before finally seeing the edge of the forest and the city's outer walls faintly visible.
Similar to the decor of those other eerie royal cities, it was dark, scarlet, and gloomy, with strange patterns that added to the eeriness and fear. The upside-down doors, the gnawed skeletons, and the dried skin constantly reminded Su Luo that this was the Abyss.
The closer you get to the city, the more strange creatures appear around you. Compared to the bizarre and mind-blowing creatures outside the apocalypse, the creatures here are more like humans, or rather, strange people wearing human skin.
When those human-skinned monsters saw Su Luo's black cat ears, they all showed a hint of surprise, then lowered their heads and stopped looking, silently and unconsciously distancing themselves from Su Luo.
What's going on?
Su Luo frowned. The development in the Abyss had exceeded his expectations. He had only intended to visit the lair of the monsters and take a few with him, but who knew he seemed to have gotten himself into it.
Is it because of my cat ears?
Cat ears?
Does this thing have a special meaning in the world of eerie creatures and the Abyss?
After entering the city, she should find a hat to hide her cat ears, otherwise, as she is now, any monster would avoid her, and she wouldn't be able to get any information.
Just then, at the gate of the ghost city, a patrol team of ghostly creatures riding ghostly bone horses sped out of the city. Those ghosts who originally wanted to enter the ghost city retreated in all directions after seeing the ghostly bone horses. When Su Luo saw this, she was about to leave as well when the team of ghostly horses stopped right in front of her.
Su Luo;...
A person's luck has its limits... Why are they all coming to me?!
If it weren't for the fact that this was the Abyss, the source of the strange creatures, Su Luo would probably have already caused mental chaos to everyone in this team.
The leader, a tall horseman in a custom-made patrol uniform, looked Su Luo up and down, finally fixing his gaze on her cat ears. He then looked away, lowered his head, and solemnly dismounted, leading a group of people to kneel on the ground with respectful expressions.
"Your Excellency, we are here on orders to welcome you into the city!"
The words of the patrol leader struck Su Luo like a thunderbolt, leaving her stunned and speechless.
What kind of incredible plot twist is this?!
What is a law enforcement officer? Welcoming her into the city? Could they be referring to themselves as the law enforcement officer?
Su Luo: ...
This left Su Luo a bit confused, but...
"Understood," Su Luo said coldly, then glanced at the herd of strange horses and feigned displeasure, "You think you can greet us with such a paltry number of strange horses? Ha, does your city lord want to be punished?"
Upon hearing this, the atmosphere between the two sides immediately dropped several degrees. A few seconds later, just when Su Luo thought the team leader wouldn't respond, the other party bowed his head again and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, it was my oversight. Please don't blame the city lord, Your Excellency."
"It's not safe outside the city lately, so please, Your Excellency, enter the city first. Our city lord has prepared a welcome party for you, which will surely satisfy you."
You made the right bet.
Although Su Luo didn't know what a real law enforcement officer should be like, deliberately making things difficult for them was probably not wrong. It would also give these people a stereotype of being hard to get along with, preventing them from coming to her for no reason and revealing her weakness.
Although she didn't know where the real law enforcement officer was, since this group of people mistook her for one, she decided to go and see what the law enforcement officer beneath the "Abyss" really was.
If possible, she would like to take this opportunity to find out what exactly the strange thing she encountered when she first arrived was!
