In the cramped space, Xia Yao was soaking in an incredibly smelly tub, pinching her nose and looking utterly disgusted.
A dozen minutes ago, Bai Yucheng picked up the ashes left by the plant and soaked them in this bucket of water.
It is said that everything in the universe has its counterpart, and this is the only way to eliminate this smell.
The key issue is that everyone else only needs to apply the medicine to their skin, but she, whose entire body is soaked in pus and blood, needs to be immersed in this place.
The stench filled Xia Yao's nostrils, making her feel like vomiting.
Especially now, you can hear the laughter and conversation of those people outside.
She always felt that those people were laughing at her.
"You did this on purpose, didn't you?"
Xia Shuang asked Bai Yucheng in a low voice, "Actually, all Xia Yao needs to do is wash herself with clean water and then apply the medicine."
No soaking is required at all.
"Just think of it as me disliking her."
Bai Yucheng responded casually.
He was still playing those petty tricks outside the wall; what's wrong with him getting some revenge?
The group hid in the abandoned buildings, waiting for Xia Yao to finish her business.
Qin Tan led the princess on patrol outside, with Xi Yang following beside him, diligently drawing maps of the surrounding area.
Qin Tan jumped to a high place and looked into the distance.
According to Bai Yu, the place where they encountered the white ghost should be several hours away from here.
But she thought she saw a white shadow flash by in the distance.
But the other person disappeared behind the collapsed wall.
"You go back first."
Qin Tan was worried, so after giving Xi Yang some instructions, he rushed off in that direction.
Just in case, Qin Tan activated the resonance, and the princess and she became one.
The journey was arduous, and in many places one either had to climb up or take a detour. When Qin Tan arrived at the place where he had just made a discovery, it was deserted.
She looked around but didn't find anything.
The empty space seemed to whisper tales of her unfounded worries, yet she didn't think she was mistaken.
She looked around and her gaze fell on a closed room.
The door to the room was blocked, but the four walls were intact, forming a closed space.
Qin Tan took out the Grim Reaper's Scythe, and the sharp blade sliced through the wall. As stones flew to the ground, Qin Tan saw a white shadow flash by inside.
This time, she really saw it.
It's a white ghost.
But by the time Qin Tan caught up, the other person had already disappeared through the wall.
This feeling is as if the other person is avoiding me at all costs.
Qin Tan wasn't worried about that.
What worries her is that the White Ghost's activity range is getting closer and closer to the wall, if the opponent's range is not fixed.
If this trend continues, it won't be long before it appears near the city walls.
No one can guarantee with absolute certainty that the city wall can stop the White Ghost.
And once this thing gets inside the wall, the resulting disaster is unimaginable.
It's important to know that before the opponent copied the data, its ghost form was virtually invincible.
Fortunately, after searching the vicinity for a while, no other white ghosts were found.
It seems like only this one escaped.
With this news, Qin Tan returned to the team, just as Xia Yao's problem was resolved.
"Really? You're not kidding us, are you?"
Having changed her clothes, Xia Yao didn't seem to have learned her lesson; she questioned Qin Tan's words.
"If what you're saying is true, then why didn't Ghost come back with you?"
Xia Yao made it clear she didn't believe it.
But her question also hit the nail on the head.
According to Bai Yucheng, the white ghost was like a shadow following him everywhere.
"Perhaps the problem lies with her?"
The young man standing behind Xia Yao added a comment.
She's from Zone 2, and her name is Ke Yuanyun.
People in Zone 2, perhaps believing their ranking is closer to Zone 1, have always followed Zone 1's lead.
In this mixed group from different districts, where no one knew each other, he became closer to the few from District One.
Even Xi Yang could get a smile from him.
He rarely gave Qin Tan and Fan Zhi, who both came from the Fifth District, a kind look.
However, Fan Zhi comes from a wealthy and powerful family, and it seems that Fan Zhi's family is now also expanding into the first district.
Ke Yuanyun's attitude towards Fan Zhi was also much better than his attitude towards Qin Tan.
"I heard that when you were in the Fifth District, you were very close to that Firewood Society. Who knows which side you're on?"
Judging from his words, it's clear that he has done in-depth research on Qin Tan.
"Spark Society?"
Qin Jie asked, "I remember this was a very mysterious organization. People in it rarely kill innocent people indiscriminately, unlike the Abyss Church."
"Isn't the Torch Society supposed to have four major families? One of the musicians is even a bit like me."
He stroked his chin, as if he were joking.
His ability is [String Manipulation], and his weapon is a string. In fact, he can use anything similar to a string as a weapon.
"It's a pity I can't play music."
Qin Jie comes from the fourth district, so his status in the first district is slightly better than Qin Tan's.
These words sound like they're speaking up for Qin Tan.
"No matter how mysterious it is, it is still a cult."
Ke Yuanyun snorted coldly.
His confidence stemmed from his own abilities.
The S-rank [Taotie] is a spatial ability.
Not only can it launch attacks, but it also has a private space the size of a basketball court. All the supplies that everyone brought out this time were stored on its body.
Compared to Qin Tan, it seems that his presence in the team is even more irreplaceable.
"Now that we're done washing up, let's continue on our way."
Xia Shuang interrupted everyone.
