When Chi Yaoyang saw this scene, he immediately realized that he had to help Popov.
His eyes narrowed and his gaze was fixed on the ferocious penguin. Without hesitation, Chi Yaoyang took action.
Victoria, the dog to whom his soul rested, kept sending warning signals in Morse code beside him.
Chi Yaoyang's heartbeat quickened and his body went limp.
He took a deep breath, realizing that the danger before them was beyond their control.
Without thinking too much, he made the decision immediately.
"Quick, Popov! We have to retreat!"
Chi Yaoyang shouted loudly and ran at full speed in the direction of escape.
Popov followed closely behind, and both of them looked solemn.
The two stood up again and continued running.
As Chi Yaoyang and Popov were running, they suddenly saw several amusement park staff members jumping over the fence and rushing towards them.
The anxious and helpless expressions on these staff members' faces made Chi Yaoyang and Popov feel uneasy.
"Hide!"
Chi Yaoyang shouted loudly and pulled Popov into the bushes nearby.
They held their breath and looked at the staff members nervously.
But at this moment, a huge penguin appeared from the fog.
It is huge, its feathers are as black as ink, and its eyes flash with malicious ferocity.
It pounced on a staff member swiftly, letting out a shrill scream.
Chi Yaoyang and Popov witnessed this horrifying scene and were stunned for a moment at the sudden situation.
They couldn't help but feel frightened, but then they quickly regained their composure.
"We can't stay here!" Chi Yaoyang clenched his fists, "The only way out is to continue to escape."
Popov nodded, determination flashing in his eyes.
The two of them turned around and left the bushes tacitly and continued to run forward.
During the escape, Chi Yaoyang and Popov could feel that the surrounding environment was becoming more dangerous.
From time to time, strange noises were heard, as if they were coming from deep underground.
Chi Yaoyang and Popov watched as the penguin ate more and more and became bigger and bigger.
It exuded a terrifying aura and its mouth was full of blood.
“Run!”
Chi Yaoyang shouted loudly.
They held each other's arms tightly and tried their best to escape from the zoo.
The surrounding environment becomes more bizarre and dangerous.
The trees were twisted and deformed, and a deep crack appeared in the ground.
A dark fog filled the air, covering the entire amusement park.
The penguins rushed towards Chi Yaoyang and Popov violently, and the huge and heavy footsteps shook the entire ground.
Both of them were drenched in sweat and their hearts were beating rapidly.
At the critical moment of life and death, they fought hard and escaped from the zoo at the last moment.
The giant penguin seemed unable to leave the zoo. It just glanced at Chi Yaoyang and Popov, then turned and left.
Chi Yaoyang and Popov breathed a sigh of relief, but they knew that this was only temporary safety.
But now there is no meat to offer the thief.
"What now?" Popov asked.
Chi Yaoyang stood up and asked Popov for a knife: "There will be a way."
Arriving at the commercial street, the two arrived at the agreed place.
The thief is already waiting for them here.
Chi Yaoyang stood quietly, with a gleaming knife in his hand attracting the thief's attention.
He took a deep breath and cut off a piece of meat from his hand.
The thief stared at the meat in Chi Yaoyang's hand and licked his lips greedily.
He trembled, his eyes flickering with desire.
"Here's the meat for you."
Chi Yaoyang said indifferently as he handed the meat to the thief.
The thief took the piece of meat with shining eyes and a satisfied smile on his face.
He gave a token nod of thanks and quickly devoured the meat.
“Brother…”
Popov felt sad. He didn't expect Chi Yaoyang to do this.
Chi Yaoyang carefully bandaged his wound.
After the thief finished eating the meat, his expression relaxed a little.
"Thank you, I will wait for you here tonight."
There was excitement in his tone.
Chi Yaoyang turned and walked towards the thief: “Remember, we need your help.”
The thief nodded.
"no problem."
There was a strange smile on his face, looking a little mysterious.
The evening is coming, and those who have lost their souls are about to come.
Chi Yaoyang knew that they had no emotions and no concerns, and could do nothing but bite and kill.
The previous encounters had already made him see the true horror.
Chi Yaoyang and Popov carefully left their hiding place and walked towards the commercial street.
Suddenly, a chill came over them, causing Chi Yaoyang and Popov to shiver.
They turned their heads to look at a shadow in the darkness and found a person standing there quietly.
It's a thief!
The thief's appearance was chilling.
His figure approached silently like a ghost, and seemed to be able to hide himself perfectly in any environment.
The thief was as elusive as a cloud of black mist, blending in completely in the dim corner.
He turned his gaze to Chi Yaoyang and Popov, with a strange joy in his eyes.
"Ten minutes."
The thief whispered, his voice as dull as if it came from underground.
Chi Yaoyang and Popov felt a tightness in their hearts, for they knew that the thief meant to take away their souls and turn them into motionless puppets.
"do not be afraid."
Victoria's voice rang in their ears, "You need to stay calm and focus on feeling the presence of your body."
Chi Yaoyang and Popov nodded in tacit understanding.
They understand that only by maintaining a clear mind can they continue to act after the thief has taken their souls.
The thief moved silently, stretching out his arm as if to touch Chi Yaoyang's cheek, but Chi Yaoyang was unable to move his body to avoid it.
At that moment, Chi Yaoyang and Popov suddenly felt a violent vibration passing through their entire bodies.
Although they did not lose their awareness of their surroundings, their souls were instantly taken away by the thief.
Everything suddenly became dead silent.
Chi Yaoyang and Popov immediately lost their spirits. Their eyes lost their luster and they stood there blankly.
However, even though Chi Yaoyang had lost his soul, he could still feel his body. He could feel his heart beating and his blood flowing, which gave him a glimmer of hope.
Perhaps, as long as he maintains awareness of his own body, he won't become a complete puppet.
Popov had a similar experience.
Although he had lost the ability to move, he could still feel his muscles and bones.
Victoria quietly watched the two people who suddenly became lifeless.
After completing the task, the thief left quietly, disappearing into the darkness like a gust of wind...
