The first companion to discover the headless corpse looked grief-stricken and insisted that he had stumbled upon a monster committing the crime.
No one thought much of it, simply assuming the man was unlucky and had broken a taboo. They decided everyone should be even more cautious from now on.
A room on the third floor.
The woman in red with long hair heard from her female ghost subordinates that she had successfully turned a spy among the humans, and the results were remarkable, making the game even more interesting...
On the other hand, the young man who was suspected to be the leader can now be basically confirmed to be the real leader.
Otherwise, according to the old rules, if you were teleported to that place to escape, you would have been devoured by a group of monsters long ago, leaving not even bones behind.
hey-hey……
Unexpectedly, the elusive and mysterious boss, who never shows his true face, has given everyone a new perspective on him in this way.
Wow, she's so good-looking.
What are you hiding? What a pity…
Two female ghosts showed infatuated expressions.
"Sister Hong, there's one more thing... One of the human women seems to be trying to harm that person. Should we inform him?"
After pondering for a moment, the eldest daughter of the Red Clan decided to send one of her female ghosts to inform the others and curry favor.
Whether it's useful or not, her overtures are there, and they can't be wrong.
The female ghost received the order and vanished in a flash, only to float back a short while later.
That person seems to have gone in the direction of the altar.
It was a place that made all strange souls tremble, a forbidden zone for all the supernatural.
No supernatural entity can escape the punishment of that place.
The eldest daughter of the Red Clan frowned and pondered for a moment.
She waved her hand, signaling someone to keep an eye on things and notify the person as soon as they returned.
Whatever that person wants to do is beyond the control of a weirdo of her caliber.
The only one qualified to intervene is their leader—the Lord of the Mysteries.
However, it is said that the eldest brother, in his human form, got along quite well with that person, even picking fruit together, so that person probably didn't have any ill intentions.
Suddenly, a warning bell rang in her mind. A suction force pulled her to an unknown place, and a strange smile mechanically appeared on her face. Time to get back to work…
Among humans, an unlucky soul stepped on a taboo and was suddenly captured by a red-clad, long-haired monster.
...
Yu Shuang arrived at her destination, forcibly tore a hole in the barrier, and strode inside.
At the center of the eerie altar sat a giant sword. Its blade was covered in strange, fiery red patterns, like flowing magma. Visible, eerie blood mist emanated from it. Yu Shuang's aura seemed to have awakened its temper; the blood mist surged and roared as if to say:
I'm very fierce!! Don't come any closer, or I'll kill you!!
Yu Shuang narrowed her eyes slightly, a dangerous signal flashing across her face.
She couldn't stand anything being arrogant in front of her, especially since this thing wasn't even human.
Even her sword wouldn't work.
I'll take you in sooner or later.
This thing contains a powerful and special energy, which is also the source of the power that maintains the operation of the rules of this world.
She had previously glimpsed the key to unlocking this power, and this thing was the crucial door she was about to open.
The eerie giant sword continued to emanate a terrifying and oppressive aura.
She sat cross-legged with composure, pondering how to get her hands on this thing.
Yu Shuang's attitude directly angered this arrogant and domineering overlord. Several streaks of blood mist instantly left his body and shot straight towards the human who had eaten the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard.
However, a strange thing suddenly appeared in front of that human, and its power was swallowed up as if it had sunk into the sea.
The blood mist surrounding the giant sword trembled slightly, emitting a sword cry, and in an instant, it burst forth with raging fury, unleashing an even more ferocious energy attack.
However, the exact same scene as before occurred: its power was gone and could not be applied to the human at all.
It's like hitting a meat bun... cough cough...
After several rounds, it calmed down and wisely cut its losses, no longer giving away energy indiscriminately...
Yu Shuang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, after all, she hadn't yet figured out how to refine this mysterious power.
The illusion of endlessly absorbing the opponent's energy only appeared because the divine artifact had just suppressed and sealed the power used.
If there are too many, it might be difficult to control... and if the backyard catches fire, it would be a loss that doesn't outweigh the gains.
She always had her own criteria for evaluating how she collected such mysterious external forces.
That's clearly enough now.
Fortunately, this thing has some intelligence; it stopped attacking when it realized things were going wrong…
After much in-depth research, she still found herself in a dead end. Should she try to seize that opportunity first?
As she was pondering this, there was a sudden spatial fluctuation directly above her, and then something fell down.
She instinctively dodged and created distance.
What fell from the sky was a person, or perhaps a familiar face crying her eyes out...
...
Just a moment ago, Lin Mu was in another space, sharing life and death with another person.
Having finally found a way out, they were forced to face a tragic choice between life and death.
Lin Mu immediately suggested playing rock-paper-scissors to see if they could win.
He is not a hypocrite; it would be a lie to say he doesn't want to live.
Let fate decide their destiny.
However, he was unlucky and lost the game of rock-paper-scissors.
He kept his word and jumped into hell without hesitation.
In a moment of crisis, his companion went back on his word, pushing him towards survival while he himself was swallowed by hell…
He could only extend one of his hands, a helpless rage.
"No—Nightfall, who gave you permission to play the hero?! I'm the one who deserves to die!..."
