Xu Fan laid the driver flat on the ground and released his senses to monitor the surroundings while waiting for news from Wan Yao Xue Liuli.
I don't know how much time passed, but the sky gradually darkened.
When Wan Yao Xue Liuli still hadn't returned, Xu Fan realized something was wrong.
With its strength, it shouldn't have taken this long to deal with that Void Devouring Beast.
The fact that this illusionary space can still change the weather indicates that the strange creature controlling this space has not been affected.
There was a damp smell in the air; it was about to rain.
Xu Fan had no choice but to help the driver up and lead him into a nearby small supermarket.
There was no one inside, only the buzzing sound of the surveillance panel on the counter.
Given that the entire space might be fake, Xu Fan did not give the driver any water from the supermarket.
After a while, the driver slowly woke up.
"Holy crap, there are so many tentacles!"
He shouted, his voice strained from prolonged dehydration.
The driver sprang up from his seat, only to kneel on the ground a moment later because his legs gave way.
He struggled to get up and clung to Xu Fan's arm, refusing to let go.
"You saw it?"
Xu Fan asked.
"You mean those tentacles? I saw them! But it was too dark. I only felt something wrapping around me, and there were several stars in the sky."
The driver still feels terrified when he thinks about it now; the feeling of his body energy rapidly draining away made him wish he were dead.
"What on earth is this thing?!"
He asked Xu Fan, his voice trembling.
Xu Fan shook his head. He had never seen such a strange creature before, and the information search results provided by the system only described some of its characteristics.
The driver felt waves of weakness coming from inside his body, so he had to search for food and water on the supermarket shelves.
Xu Fan did not stop him. If the food was real, that would be best. Even if it was fake, it would at least give the driver a temporary taste of what he had to eat.
Maintaining a calm mindset is also very important in such bizarre events.
Many ordinary people die in bizarre events, mostly because they panicked and ran around in panic. This classic suicidal scene in movies makes it hard to avoid death.
Seeing that the driver had downed three or five bottles of water but was still searching, Xu Fan knew that this space was also an illusion.
He had already decided that if Wan Yao Xue Liuli didn't return soon, he would enter that black space. Otherwise, while Xu Fan wouldn't mind if things dragged on like this, a driver who was just an ordinary person certainly couldn't withstand it.
Xu Fan secretly channeled some of his true energy into the driver's body, which temporarily improved his condition.
Just then, voices could be heard coming from outside the supermarket.
"It's been so long, he must have been drained dry by now."
"We've only just come in; we should be able to take down Xu Fan without breaking a sweat."
“He dares to oppose our Huang family. He doesn’t know his own limitations. Letting him die here would be too good for him.”
"Haha, the Huang family's offer this time is quite high. I heard that a group of people came earlier, but Xu Fan killed them all. We can't let our guard down."
The rustling sounds of conversation continued to come, and because Xu Fan's five senses were extremely sensitive, he was able to hear these almost inaudible sounds.
"As expected, they were sent by the Huang family. They killed one wave before, and now a second wave has arrived so quickly. It seems that news of the abandoned factory has already reached the Huang family."
Xu Fan muttered to himself.
"This was their doing too. The Huang family is really eager to die."
His eyes were already filled with anger. He had repeatedly challenged Xu Fan's bottom line. Did he really think Xu Fan wouldn't dare to storm the Huang family mansion?
The footsteps outside grew closer, and the voices became clearer.
“Sasaki-san, I sensed an extremely weak aura. It seems that Xu Fan is nearing his end. We came to scout ahead, but I didn’t expect to capture him so easily. We will split the Huang family’s reward equally.”
The other voice was also filled with surprise.
"Hahahaha, this time it was so easy! How did those good-for-nothings from before die at this man's hands? They really disgraced Japan!"
The two men's voices grew increasingly arrogant, showing no concern whatsoever about being overheard by others.
However, what the two of them sensed was the driver's aura. Xu Fan had already concealed his aura, so how could they possibly sense his presence?
Fine, let's just wait for them to take the bait themselves.
Xu Fan signaled to the driver to find a place to hide first, otherwise, the upcoming battle might affect him, and given his current condition, he might very well die here.
The driver was startled, but he obediently hid, peeking out half his face to look towards the supermarket entrance.
Xu Fan stood at the door, showing no intention of hiding.
The two men's footsteps had reached the main road. Xu Fan stepped out of the supermarket and looked towards the intersection.
The two Japanese assassins were still chatting and laughing when they realized that their target was standing not far in front of them, and their joy intensified.
"Great! You've come out to your death willingly, saving us the trouble of looking for you!"
Another person shouted at Xu Fan.
“Cut off your own hands now, then kneel down and beg us, and we might spare your life.”
The two looked at each other and burst into laughter.
"However, you've offended the Huang family, and your fate will be grim."
Xu Fan feigned a frightened expression and said:
"I don't have much strength left, but I can still easily kill the two of you. Don't think you can kill me so easily!"
The two Japanese assassins also realized that if Xu Fan launched a counterattack before his death, he might be able to kill one of them, which would be a net loss.
After a moment's thought, they took out their special communication device and sent a signal to the other assassins.
After doing all that, they looked at Xu Fan with smiles on their faces, seemingly already looking forward to how they would kill him later.
"You killed so many people before, I respect you as a man, so I called all my comrades who participated in this operation to send you on your way!"
Xu Fan had an undisguised smile on his lips. It would be best if they all came at once, so he wouldn't have to find them one by one.
As they were speaking, several cracks appeared in the distance, and a few people emerged from the black fissures.
One of them was wearing a long black trench coat and sunglasses. He had a handsome face and exaggerated muscles that made him look like a minor boss in a movie.
The man in the trench coat stepped forward, looked at Xu Fan, snorted, and said:
"Blackjack and Flamingo died because of you?"
Xu Fan looked at him and chuckled softly:
"Yes, they didn't seem to suffer much before they died."
The man in the trench coat was clearly enraged. Without saying a word, he stomped his foot and charged towards Xu Fan.
