【453】The culprit



Does the smell on you seem familiar?

Ling Yuan was stunned for a moment, "What does this mean?"

Also, if what Xiao Bingyi said is true, could it be that this ugly old man is good at poisoning but not good at detoxifying?

How did this come from? Poisoning? She can do that too?

In the space, Xiao Bingyi could hear her thoughts without any effort.

"You come from the modern era, so you should know that this world is full of wonders. In particular, learning never stops and there are always people better than you. With your current abilities, you can indeed walk sideways on this continent, because you not only know how to use poison, but also know how to detoxify. You are even an excellent doctor."

"You exude a righteous aura, but this old man is a toad living in a dark corner."

"Ugly and poisonous, look at the abscesses on his body. They didn't form in one or two times. They took years to form and were left behind as evidence."

"Also, the hunchback on his back has something poisonous in it. The bodily fluids in this person are comparable to biological weapons. They are very dangerous. If you were to fight him, with your body size and reaction speed, you would be turned into blood in a matter of minutes!"

Ling Yuan gasped, her beautiful face full of surprise, "Is this so scary?"

When she focused her attention on the man again, especially the hunchback on his back, she felt her stomach churning and felt extremely uncomfortable when she thought of the possible toxins hidden in it.

"Could this person be the helper invited by Hong Mei'er?"

"From the looks of them, they should be pretty close."

Ling Yuan was a little frustrated: "The enemy is really hard to deal with."

Thinking that he had already made clear the memory traces of those mutant beasts, if this person was really the mastermind, then...

"I don't know if he noticed our little trick!"

While Ling Yuan was in panic, in the eighteen levels of hell outside the space, Hong Meir looked at the old man who walked over and over again in front of her and observed the mutant beasts carefully, and asked with some concern.

"Master, what's going on? Is there any problem? Yes,"

The old man in front suddenly raised his hand, Hong Meir's voice stopped abruptly, and then, Hong Meir's eyes widened, watching the old man's finger suddenly reach into the mouth of the mutant spider as big as a washbasin.

As a result, a horrifying scene occurred. In the past, as long as these mutant beasts smelled the scent of the old man, they would subconsciously lie on the ground and surrender.

But now...

Ever since the old man walked into here, he felt that the whole atmosphere was different. When the mutant beasts saw him, they actually made their own unique roars, just like when they saw other people. It would have been fine if they just bared their teeth, but their entire faces were distorted.

This situation made Hong Meir even more uneasy. She didn't understand why the mutant beast suddenly became like this.

When the mutant spider bit the old man's hand, the old man's eyes suddenly sharpened and a strong smell suddenly emanated from his body. Hong Meir's face changed and she took three steps back in a daze.

Then, she saw the old man's hands suddenly grow longer, and his nails grew wildly at a speed visible to the naked eye. As soon as the long black nails almost reached a point, they cut the mutant spider in half.

Even though this was not the first time she had seen such a situation, Hong Meir still covered her chest with her hands and her face turned pale.

The mutant spider that was killed by the old man didn't even give its companions a chance to eat it, and it turned into blood.

"Master," now, if Hong Meir didn't understand anymore, she would really be beheaded.

"All the mutant beasts here have been controlled by someone."

Hong Mei'er's bright face was startled, then pale, and even her voice trembled slightly: "How, how is this possible?"

The old man laughed sinisterly, "How is this impossible? The smell you smelled before was probably the drug that the other party released into the air. Don't mention it, you are quite smart!"

"But, but I'm the only one who can open the mechanism here. How did they get in?"

Hong Meir didn't believe it, nor was she willing to believe it, and even less willing to question her own abilities.

In particular, this stone island is hidden in such a secret place that people from outside can’t even find it, let alone come here?

"How did you get in? I need to ask you this. I heard that quite a few people have come to the island recently."

The old man suddenly turned around, and his face was covered with tumors so that one couldn't even see his true features. Ling Yuan in the space felt nauseous when he saw it.

"Damn it! If there weren't some restrictions in this hell, we wouldn't be unable to hear their voices."

Originally, she could hear the sounds outside, but unfortunately, it seemed to be blocked by something, and it was difficult for her to see the picture.

The old man's words made Hong Mei'er's face change immediately, "Master, do you mean that those people are responsible?"

As a result, she denied it as soon as she said this, "No, it's impossible. With their strength, they can't even get in here, let alone get outside. What's more, there was no movement beforehand."

The old man's facial features became even more distorted. "Humph, little thing, if it wasn't those people, who else could it be? Could it be that there is a traitor among your people?"

Hong Mei'er blurted out almost subconsciously, "This, this is even more impossible. They are not normal people. They are all under our special control. How can they be traitors?"

Although Hong Meir had always been unwilling to believe that it was the people she brought in who destroyed this place, when she suddenly thought of the disappearance of Ling Jifeng, Yu Hen, Gongzi Yan and Ling Yuan, she felt as if someone had strangled her throat and was so nervous that she couldn't utter a word.

The old man understood a little when he saw her expression, "Is there an accident?"

Hong Meir's body trembled, and she looked at the old man with fear, then fell to her knees with a plop.

"There is indeed one thing, disciple, that I still haven't figured out."

Under the old man's impatient gaze, Hong Mei'er replied in fear and trepidation: "Several people came to the island, and I locked three of them in Cave No. 2. Later, I released a tide of maggots, but when I rushed over, the maggots were gone, and even those people were gone. However, on the ground, except for traces of dead maggots in a few places, there was nothing else to be found."

"I've always thought they were hiding somewhere, and I've been looking for them these days. Could it be that everything here is caused by those people?"

Hong Meir dared not to think further. Just when the old man raised his hand, Hong Meir's eyes turned red with anxiety and tears fell down.

"No, Master, Master, please, I really didn't mean it. I really didn't expect it to be them. Their overall strength doesn't even reach the Mo level, how could they get in? I can't figure it out. Even if you want me to die, you have to give me a clear way to die, right?"

As expected, after hearing what she said, the old man's hand suddenly paused, and then he looked at his bloodshot eyes that were almost invisible due to the blood tumor, and spoke in a sinister and terrifying voice with a suffocating murderous intent.

"You are judging the opponent's strength based on your cultivation? Mei'er, since when did you become as stupid as your senior brother?"

If Ling Yuan in the space heard this, he would be so shocked that he would fall off the stool. Oh my God, this horrible poisonous ghost is not dead, and he is in a more disgusting and terrifying place than Hong Xie after he mutated.

"Master, Master, I really don't understand how the other party got here without destroying any poisonous arrays. This stone island is our territory. Apart from the main entrance, there is only an underwater passage."

"But the surrounding sea is full of mutant fish. If they jump in, they will only die faster. There is no reason for them to come here. I have not betrayed you. I really have not. I can swear to heaven that there is no map of the passage to this stone island. It is all engraved in my mind. I don't understand, I really don't understand how they got in!"

By the end of her speech, she was so aggrieved that she couldn't speak. The poisonous old man was very short, much shorter than Hong Meir. Even when Hong Meir knelt down, she was still a little shorter than him. After hearing what she said, he frowned.

"Could it be that the other party's strength is a disguise?"

As soon as these words came out, they were rejected by Hong Mei'er: "No, Master. If the opponent's previous strength was a fake, they couldn't have been beaten so badly by our people, and they couldn't have been forced to that point by me. And I believe that with their training environment, no matter how talented they are, they can't reach above the Mo level!"

"Since strength is not a disguise, there is only one possibility left..."

Under Hong Meir's anxious gaze, the old man Poison Ghost's eyes sparkled with excitement: "Space."

Hong Mei'er stood up in shock. "Empty space? How is this possible?"

The old man Poison Ghost sneered, and was quite dissatisfied with Hong Mei'er's expression, "How is this impossible?"

"Is there really any spatial ability in this world?"

The poison ghost old man's smile became even more distorted, as the tumors and wrinkles on his face were squeezed together, and a few drops of black poisonous blood flowed from his face horribly. When they dripped onto the ground, they made a "slurp" sound, similar to the sound of being corrupted by something.

Hong Mei'er was so frightened that she trembled violently: "Master,"

The old man's sinister and cold bloodshot eyes began to scan the surroundings like lasers. "Since I came in, I felt like someone was watching us. At first I thought it was an illusion, but now, haha, it's obvious that our every move is in the eyes of others."

"But the Mohist School doesn't even dare to acknowledge the existence of space, so how could it really exist?"

"If there is no space ability, then tell me, how did those storage rings and storage bags come into being?"

Without the exploration of space-related psychics, these things would simply not exist. Although those things are precious and few in number, they do exist. This alone is enough to prove that space exists absolutely.

But Hong Meir still didn't want to believe it. "Maybe, maybe those people can hide themselves? In a place where we can't see them, they hide there and follow me in and out?"

"Then explain to me, where did those maggots go? Even if those people can become invisible, how could three of them disappear in a row?"

Hong Meir swallowed hard, it was impossible.

The master has spent years researching the potion that can cause invisibility and has only made some progress. It is painful enough to use it on one person, let alone three people?

What's more, invisibility is something that cannot be maintained forever. It has a time limit. When the time is up, they will consciously return to their original state. If the other party can be invisible, he would have shown up long ago. Why would he make her go around in circles?

Therefore, as soon as this idea came to mind, it was kicked hard into the ground.

If he is not invisible, then he is really a space-related mutant?

Hong Meir felt her heart beating non-stop, and she looked at her master with some trepidation.

"But Master, the great-grandmother of the Mo family has been dead for who knows how many years, and no one knows where her personal space has been scattered. Is there really, really a second personal space in this world?"

There was one thing Hong Meir didn't dare to say, and that was that she had never believed that this thing really existed. Even though she was a member of the Mo family, she had never believed that such a fantastic story really happened.

But she could sense the confidence in the Poison Ghost, especially since he entered here, his eyes have been looking around non-stop. Could it be that there really is a space? And the person who has the space is among the four missing people?

"You just said that one of them was the culprit who solved the zombie poison?"
