As the townspeople wolfed down their food, Li Laoba's steamed buns were quickly devoured.
"See! We've all finished eating, this is clearly not human flesh! You actually called these delicious buns human flesh filling? You have ulterior motives! Don't you understand that only love and good food should not be taken for granted?"
"Exactly! This is even worse than criticizing my brother's crossover dribbling technique. This bun is clearly fine!"
"Now what do you have to say? Hmm?"
Faced with the villagers' clamor, Han Feng forced an ugly smile.
"It seems I was mistaken. Li Laoba's steamed buns are indeed not human flesh. Everyone, I'm sorry, it was my fault. Let go of Li Laoba!"
"Captain Han!" The team member who was holding down Li Laoba was somewhat puzzled.
"I told you to let him go! Are you disobeying orders?" Han Feng said in a deep voice.
"Yes!" The team member who had been holding Li Laoba obediently released him.
"Everyone, I was rude, I'm so sorry! We'll be leaving now. Li Laoba, this is your compensation."
Han Feng took out a small piece of gold and placed it on the table, then prepared to leave with his men.
This town is too eerie. At this moment, the townspeople have surrounded the area so tightly that there is no way to get through. Even though he has confirmed that they are not human, Han Feng does not want to have a conflict with them.
They weren't a full squad to begin with, and if a fight broke out, their small team might be wiped out. Who knew what kind of big guy was hiding in this strange town? Han Feng decided to leave first and wait for the reinforcements to arrive.
But just as they were about to leave, Li Laoba suddenly blocked their way and sneered.
"You come and go as you please, and you say my steamed buns are human flesh? Are you kidding me?"
"So what do you want?" Han Feng asked, frowning.
"What do I want?" Li Laoba licked his lips. "How could I dare to say anything? It's just that you've come all this way, it wouldn't be good to leave empty-handed, would it? How about taking some local specialties back with you?"
"Specialty products? What kind of specialty products?" Han Feng frowned.
"Oh, this is good stuff! Here, take it!"
After Li Laoba finished speaking, he actually took his own head off his neck and handed it to Han Feng, a scene that was extremely horrifying.
"What's wrong? Why aren't you taking it? Weren't you the one who was going to take me down?" After Li Laoba's head was removed, he not only didn't die, but was also able to continue speaking.
"I understand!" Han Feng exclaimed in realization, his eyes widening instantly. "You audacious monsters! I can tell you're not human at first glance! Your entire town is filled with corpses and ghosts! You've devoured all the original villagers!"
Han Feng felt a chill run from his tailbone all the way to the top of his head. He had already guessed the truth, but the horror of the truth instantly sent shivers down his spine.
A large group of ghouls devoured all the humans in the town, digested their bodies, acquired their memories, and then transformed into the appearance of the dead to continue living in the town.
No wonder Li Laoba could answer all those tricky and strange questions he asked; the Corpse Demons and Ghosts are capable of extracting the memories of the people they eat!
In other words, the humans that Han Feng and his companions are seeing now are not human, but a large group of corpse ghosts!
Hehehe...
Li Laoba put the head back on his own head, then let out a strange, chuckling laugh.
"Even if you know the truth, what can you do? Don't worry, I'll become like you soon."
After Li Laoba finished speaking, his whole body began to crack, and his skin fell off like pieces of plaster, revealing his true form.
It was a tangled mass of white slime, like a white slime, with crimson eyes and a large mouth full of fangs.
When the Shiki disguises itself as a human, it has little fighting ability and can only bully ordinary people.
This ghoul clearly knew that Han Feng and his group were no ordinary people, so it immediately unleashed its ultimate move. Its crimson eyes were filled with excitement, for the stronger the human it devoured, the greater the boost it would receive.
As Li Laoba revealed his true form, the other corpse ghosts and spirits stopped pretending and tore off their human skin disguises. Even the cute little children were no exception, with saliva constantly flowing from their mouths full of fangs.
The reason they waited until now to reveal their true forms was precisely to surround Han Feng and his group and trap them like turtles in a jar.
"Damn it! We've been ambushed by a bunch of beasts! We can't fight them, let's retreat!" Han Feng's face was extremely ugly. Although the Corpse Demons and Ghosts weren't considered strong fighters among the alien races, their sheer number meant they could easily overwhelm them.
No sooner had he finished speaking than the ghouls and ghosts pounced on him.
Fortunately, the people in the Cold Front Team were no pushovers either. Although half of them were new recruits who had just joined the Tiger Legion, those who managed to break through and survive the encirclement and suppression by the high-level alien races with Ji Kun were no ordinary people.
The first wave of attacks by the Corpse Demons not only failed to work, but several of them were killed by the members of the Cold Edge Squad.
The speed of Han Feng's blade was beyond description; the corpse demons and ghosts couldn't even catch a trace of his movements. Anyone who tried to get close to Han Feng was met with...
Ping Xin held a long sword horizontally in front of his chest, wielding it with great force. The surrounding sword energy crisscrossed, and for a moment, no corpse ghost dared to approach him.
Rain lashed down all around Yang Beiyu. As a ruthless man who had personally murdered his parents, he was even more vicious when he attacked, each move deadly.
Despite having the numerical advantage of the Corpse Demons, Han Feng and his group gained the upper hand once the fight began.
"Don't linger in the fight, charge out!" Han Feng gave the order decisively. He knew very well that the current advantage was only temporary.
There are too many ghouls and ghosts, and they are human. Eventually, they will get tired and their energy will be exhausted. When that happens, it will be the ghouls and ghosts that slaughter them.
"Follow me, everyone!"
Han Feng charged ahead, his blade moving so fast it was invisible.
However, the ghouls had finally managed to surround them, so why would they let them go so easily?
"Stop them! Don't let our rations escape today! The reward for successfully stopping them is three human whips!" a ghoul shouted.
"I'll scare you!" Han Feng couldn't help but curse.
Upon hearing the word "human whip," everyone in the squad couldn't hold back. A chill ran down their spines, a truly unsettling sensation. These ghouls and ghosts were simply monstrous and outrageous.
If their original motivation to fight was 100%, then hearing the word "human whip" immediately increased it to 120%, more effective than being injected with chicken blood.
