It was late, no one was saying anything, everyone was tired, and it was definitely a bit awkward. Although Mu Ningxue and the others were a little annoyed, they were people who knew right from wrong, so they didn't dwell on it. They returned to their tent and went to sleep. When the others saw that the girls were asleep, they also dispersed. So, except for the night watchman, everyone else went to sleep.
There was no movement all night, and the next day everyone packed up and continued on their previous path.
Not many people talked to Zizhou. The girls did it because they were embarrassed, while most of the boys thought Zizhou was unkind for speaking like that about their goddess. It could be said that they collectively isolated Zizhou.
Of course, Mo Fan was also in their isolated area. Who told Mo Fan to stick to their goddess so much and be so annoying? The one who hated Mo Fan the most was Lu Zhenghe. He had liked Mu Ningxue in the first place, but Mu Ningxue only treated Mo Fan differently, and Mo Fan often went to see Mu Ningxue. Now he really hated Mo Fan.
Although no one talked much, their exploration did not fall behind, it was just that the speed was slower than expected.
"We've only just reached the outskirts of Jinlin City. We're moving too slowly. How about we split up and act separately?" someone suggested.
Zizhou took the instrument and took a look. There were indeed no monsters nearby, but since this place had become the territory of monsters, it was impossible that there were no monsters. This only meant that their gathering place should be in Jinlin City.
Song Xia disagreed. She thought that this operation was so dangerous that only by staying together could they better protect each other. When the others heard what Song Xia said, they agreed with her. However, Mo Fan, Mu Ningxue, Mu Nujiao and the others all looked at Zizhou.
They all listen to Zizhou, not because he is great, but because he gives people the impression of being steady and successful. Naturally, people will believe in Zizhou's judgment, and his strength is also a plus for him.
Zizhou thought about it and felt that what Song Xia said made sense.
"Then let's act together. We are not familiar with this place, and no one knows what is hidden. If anything happens, we can still deal with it together."
"good!"
"That's it!"
The group walked to the street and didn't see anything unusual, but everyone was nervous. As everyone was thinking about exploring from a higher perspective, Mo Fan pointed to the tallest building as soon as he heard it.
"That building is tall enough that I should be able to see the entire city of Jinlin."
Zizhou looked in the direction Mo Fan pointed and found that the building was the municipal building of Jinlin City. However, although it was a sunny day, the building seemed a bit gloomy. Zizhou hesitated.
But Luo Song and his friends thought that this was indeed a good location for investigation, and they discussed going to the municipal building.
"Generally, demons love to stay in buildings like this. I don't know what I'll face if I go in. Are you sure you want to go in?"
Zizhou did not directly oppose them, but told them about the possible problems and let them make their own judgment.
Luo Song and the others were no longer excited, but were seriously thinking about the dangers of this matter.
Although everyone was hesitant, their mission this time also included an inspection point at the municipal building, so they had to go to this place regardless of whether it was really dangerous or not.
"Let's go. Even if we are the last to go here, we will go there eventually."
Zheng Bingxiao still chose to go, and perhaps because of his influence, others also supported him. Zizhou shook his head secretly, thinking that Zheng Bingxiao and the others were still too naive, which also reflected the arrogance and conceit that they thought they had hidden well.
"Mr. Qin, maybe it's not as serious as you think. As long as we are careful this time, we should be able to complete it smoothly."
Song Xia also agreed with Zheng Bingxiao's statement. She also hoped to complete the task as soon as possible and go back early.
Everyone was waiting for Zizhou's opinion. Although they could go there directly, Zizhou's strength was obvious to all. With him around, they would have the confidence even if there was any danger.
Zizhou, who clearly saw what they were planning, let out a sigh and reluctantly agreed to their suggestion.
Mo Fan's face was solemn. He just had a bad feeling, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. He could only follow them to the municipal building.
But Mo Fan and Bai Tingting did not go in. They stayed outside so that they could be notified in time if they found any monsters.
Maybe because there were too many people, they consciously went to different directions to check the situation inside. Lu Zhenghe summoned his summoned beast to explore the way. Before they walked far, they felt that there was no sunlight coming in and it was too gloomy.
During the inspection, Zizhou did not speak a word throughout the whole process, but covered the building with his mental power. Zizhou discovered that there were a large number of black shadows in the building. They were not buildings, but a huge creature!
This discovery gave Zizhou a chill. What was going on? What is this creature? Is it luring them in?
Zizhou had no time to think. He only knew that if they didn't leave now, they would all die here.
"Everyone, listen to me."
Zizhou's voice drew everyone's attention to him. Everyone looked at Zizhou in confusion and found that his face looked a little ugly, with some sweat on it and his lips were a little pale.
Mu Ningxue frowned. She didn’t understand why Zizhou, who was fine just now, became like this now, as if he was frightened by something! etc! Scared! ?
Mu Ningxue seemed to have grasped something and stared at Zizhou without blinking.
Noticing Mu Ningxue's gaze, Zizhou saw the solemnity and questioning in Mu Ningxue's eyes.
Zizhou nodded silently without hesitation.

Tell your findings.
"I just explored it and found that this place is not as simple as we thought. This is not the demon's lair, but the demon itself!"
Everyone's pupils dilated and they all stood there in a daze. Some of them hoped for the best and tried to see a joke on Zizhou's face, but it was obvious that there was none.
"Haha, classmate Qin, you are kidding, we have been here for so long and haven't found any trace of any living creatures."
Lu Zhenghe tried to prove that Zizhou's words were a joke through his recent discovery, but Zizhou just looked at them silently with seriousness in his eyes. There was no explanation, nor the smile as he had imagined, only an abyss that was unfathomable.
Song Xia's feet were already somewhat unsteady, and even Mu Ningxue's tightly clenched hands revealed her current mood.
As if to verify Zizhou's words, the surroundings suddenly shook violently, dust was raised everywhere, and huge tentacles emerged from the ground and attacked everyone. There were quite a few human and demon corpses on some of the vines.
“Aaaaaah!!!”
"This one looks like a fake demon!"
"Could those corpses be the group of Mage Hunters who didn't leave?"
"Now let's do this!"
………………
The scene was in chaos, with vines everywhere and very aggressive. Everyone used their magic, even Zizhou didn't care about it anymore. He used his space claws to tear apart the vines that blocked the way out, but it wasn't long before the way was blocked by vines again. I don't know if it was Zizhou's illusion, but he could feel a more powerful creature coming towards him.
"Never mind. Everyone is in danger now. We don't know why that unknown creature is coming this way. We can only get out quickly. Otherwise, if they are really surrounded, I will be fine, but it will be hard to say about others. 』
Seeing that the vines had tied up Song Xia, Zizhou no longer hesitated and directly cast his high-level magic.
"Ice Field!"
In an instant, ice began to spread outward from Zizhou's surroundings, and countless vines were frozen into popsicles by Zizhou. Zizhou controlled them and did not hurt other people. The vines that bound Song Xia were also frozen into popsicles by Zizhou, so Song Xia fell down directly. Zizhou used his space-based virtual claws to steadily lower her down, but her abdomen was still pierced by the vines and the bleeding would not stop. Zizhou asked Mu Ningxue to freeze her to relieve the bleeding.
It’s not that Zizhou doesn’t want to use his ice system to help Song Xia freeze her wounds, but his ice system has evolved to the point where it carries a strong cold poison, and Song Xia’s injuries are quite serious. If his cold poison is added to them, wouldn’t that be the end of Song Xia’s life?
After everything was settled, Zizhou saw that everyone else was still standing there in a daze, so he couldn't help but remind them.
"What are you still standing there for? Why don't you leave? This ice can only hold those vines for a while. It won't be long before they break free and come out again!"
