I can't even imagine how terrifying it would be if that sound came from the unclaimed clothes.
If that were the case, I probably would have just thrown the clothes away. But even now, I still don't understand who left these clothes here.
It hasn't been long since we last saw this guy in blue armor, so how did he suddenly turn out like this?
This guy, I wonder if he's already met with some misfortune.
If that's the case, then we might as well just leave directly and not bother with this contractual matter.
Moreover, the compass house we are in now is definitely becoming increasingly dangerous.
Not only this garment, but also the white flower we are wearing now appears in the same form.
They all appeared suddenly in an impossible situation.
Moreover, both of these things are definitely related to Blue Armor. Blue Armor used the white flower to lure us here, but he himself is not here.
That's rather strange.
The girl asked me again, and I still didn't know the answer.
I just told the girl to calm down.
The more vulnerable we are at this moment, the more exactly what that blue-armored guy wants.
I think it's even possible that he didn't leave at all, but is quietly waiting for us somewhere.
He will only come out when we are truly broken down or have no fighting capacity.
That's good, then. After all, I remember very clearly that when we first met Blue Armor, he was silently examining the lightning sword in my hand.
If it weren't for his apprehension, I would even think he might have attacked us back then.
The problem was, at the time, we didn't have anything that he could use against us.
Now we can say we got this sea marrow with his help; he's a powerful figure who brought it to us.
Based on just one item, I think the blue armor should be enough to make him show himself.
He's eaten enough to satisfy his appetite, so we should have achieved our goal.
Furthermore, if we hadn't managed to get anything good back then, Blue Armor might have simply taken our lives through that contract, thus gaining something for nothing.
This kid, after thinking about it, is actually quite cunning.
At this moment, I'm trying my best to transform the wrist guard in my hand into a weapon-like form, just in order to have a slight chance of winning.
But no matter how hard I tried, the thing on my wrist still only had a faint glow.
I glanced at the girl next to me; at this moment, she was holding the same thing.
But in this dark situation, only the flashlight that Lao Liu left us can be of some use, and besides, this flashlight can't illuminate the entire Shenluocha house.
I looked at the area with crystals where we entered the Compass Chamber before, and now that area is dark, as if it had never been lit at all.
The room we were looking at had no windows, which startled us.
But later it was discovered that it was a faint light emanating from the entire wall. Although it was eerie, at least it was clear that it did have some function.
As I said before, this place is not only not meant to be a hiding place for me, but even if it were given to me for free and I were asked to rent it out, I think it would be very difficult.
With its current dark complexion, I feel this place is really not a good place.
It was pitch black, the ventilation was terrible, and even the workers inside had disappeared.
I remember clearly that Lan Jia told us that he had filled in all the large windows, leaving only a few small holes specifically to prevent encountering sea scabies mites.
But now it seems that the insect shells at the door are still crackling, some even sounding like bones clattering together. I think Blue Armor doesn't need these things to keep itself safe at all.
Or rather, since he has the means to get rid of all these scabies mites, why should he worry about his house?
Just as I was looking at the general layout of the house, Yiyi spoke softly.
"Brother... I feel like those earthenware jars are gone?"
The girls' unusual noises immediately put me on alert.
My heart skipped a beat. Indeed, there seemed to have been some small items on this desktop before!
This was what Lan Jia called his workbench, and the small items on it, specifically for crafting or healing, seem to have disappeared now.
I quickly went with the girl to the workbench, then picked up a flashlight and looked at it carefully. It was completely empty, as if there had never been any tweezers, pottery jars or anything like that before!
No way...
Could it be that what we first encountered wasn't the Lan family at all, but rather a ghost?
I could see it clearly at the time: the earthenware jar contained exactly what it should contain, and there were also some dried branches on the workbench...
Moreover, I feel that the current scene in this room, including the slight rotten smell coming from it, is the same rotten smell from the earthenware jar we saw before!
I quickly pulled the girl around twice, and upon closer inspection, I saw that there were several rotten branches on the ground!
"Yiyi, look!"
I quickly pointed it out to the girl, and she suddenly looked down and froze.
The whole thing was black, even more lifeless and gloomy than when I last saw it!
Just how many times did this blue-armored creature refine these things?
I can now confirm one thing.
That means Blue Armor definitely didn't take that thing. There are also signs of a recent fire; how could the house suddenly be empty?
Or is this blue-armored guy playing some kind of trick on us?!
As I pondered, the mysterious yet mechanical smile of the blue-armored man from before kept replaying in my mind.
He explained everything to me one by one back then, but now he's really gone, leaving only a mess behind.
Moreover, it seems that many things have already disappeared.
At the time, just to be on the safe side, I didn't hand over the dew-collecting branch to him at all. After all, who could believe it when they saw the branch burned and failed to be refined?
But now, let alone not believing it, his stuff is already enough for us to look at for far too long.
