Only a pair of leather shoes came over, and the scene was indeed scary.

But what was even more frightening was that the next moment, the pair of shoes disappeared.

Disappeared out of thin air.

The team members were a little overwhelmed.

"Team leader, this is a bit weird, where did the shoe go?" a team member said. His right hand looked a little different, pale, rotten, and emitting black air.

And there is a scarlet eye on this hand.

Obviously, this ghost hand was grafted on and was not the original hand of this team member.

At this moment, the eye on the ghost hand suddenly turned and looked to the side.

Team leader, right next to you.

"Team leader?"

The team member who spoke also noticed something was wrong. Not only him, but other team members also noticed it.

Because the team leader has stopped talking since just now.

When everyone looked over, they saw the team leader with his head down, motionless, and the nightmare limb transplanted on the team leader was also motionless.

Like hibernation.

Sometimes, I am not afraid of people making noise, but I am afraid of people keeping silent.

“Team leader, team leader!”

A female team member holding a gun nearby asked and wanted to reach out to pat the team leader, but someone immediately stopped her.

"Don't move, don't move, look at the team leader's shoes!"

The remaining few people immediately looked down.

After seeing it clearly, everyone gasped.

The shoes the team leader was wearing at this moment were not the combat boots he had worn before, but the leather shoes he had worn in the house just now.

In an instant, everyone's scalp felt numb.

They had never encountered this situation in their several drills. What's the matter with these leather shoes? When did they get worn by the team leader?

As members of the same group, everyone knows their team leader well, and the team leader usually doesn't make jokes like this.

Moreover, how did they put it on? Now, anyone with a brain would know that they had encountered something strange that they had never encountered before.

So it was obviously a wise move to prevent the female players from touching the captain at the beginning.

The next moment, the captain suddenly trembled, and the nightmare limb that was parasitic on his body suddenly twitched, and then began to rot at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The team leader was shaking all over, as if he was in great pain. He raised his head and glanced at his team members. At this time, there was no blood on the team leader's face, and his face skin was like wax, melting.

His lips twitched and he squeezed out two words from between his teeth.

“Hurry…run!”

The sound was so quiet that most of the group members didn't hear it.

The two people who heard it changed their expressions and took a step back unconsciously.

Just at this moment, the team leader disappeared.

Disappeared out of thin air.

It's like erasing it with an eraser.

"Where's the team leader?"

"Something's wrong. Everyone be careful. Ghost Ear, can you hear anything?"

One team member asked.

Team B has a more comprehensive configuration. There are two people in charge of detection and perception alone, one for seeing and the other for listening.

The one who is responsible for listening is nicknamed Ghost Ear.

Because he has four ears.

Two of the ears were transplants from a nightmare.

But Gui Er didn't say anything at this time.

"Ghost Ear, what are you doing?"

At first, that teammate was a little annoyed. It was already this late and he was still distracted.

When he looked back, he saw Gui'er with his head down, motionless.

Looking at Gui'er's feet again, he was wearing the familiar black leather shoes.

The team member immediately felt a chill all over his body.

He called the other team members and ran immediately.

But before he ran out of the alley, he felt that the footsteps beside him were not right.

When he looked around, the team members who had just run out with him were gone.

He was the only one left.

The problem was, he could still hear the noisy footsteps in the darkness.

The sound of footsteps could not have been made by him alone.

Fear spread like a tide, completely destroying his sanity.

His mind went blank and he was so scared that he wanted to scream.

Because he saw several pairs of black leather shoes around him.

They had surrounded him.

The rest of the team was gone.

In the end, he did not scream. After a moment of silence in the alley, the sound of footsteps of leather shoes on the ground could be heard again.

It sounds like there's more than one.

The footsteps moved away, but no one was visible.

…

Somewhere in the ancient city, Lao Qi, who was following Group A, was trying to get in touch with members of Group B.

But since more than ten minutes ago, we have been unable to contact him at all.

During the last contact, a member of Group B reported to him that they had discovered something unusual in a house and were investigating.

There was no news after that.

Lao Qi felt that something was wrong.

"Boss, there are a lot of people in Group B. Even if something happened, it can't be done quietly. Is it because the signal is blocked again?"

A team member said.

Lao Qi shook his head: "Team C can still be contacted, the communication is fine."

This time the others were silent.

Although they didn't quite believe that anything would happen to Group B, if they were out of contact for a long time, there was reason to suspect that something had happened to them.

At least this possibility cannot be ruled out.

In Lao Qi's opinion, the current situation in the ancient city is indeed very strange.

Since the city gate was lost, it stands to reason that many nightmares would enter. However, since they started exploring just now, they didn't encounter a single nightmare.

This in itself is not normal.

Lao Qi is also experienced. In order to train himself, he once went deep into some polluted areas alone and dealt with all kinds of horrible and strange nightmares.

He naturally knew that nightmares would devour each other.

The weirdness that can devour other nightmares will gradually become stronger.

He nearly lost his life once.

He encountered a nightmare that devoured many of its kind. The power of this nightmare left a deep impression on him. Lao Qi knew very well that no one in the world could stop this kind of nightmare.

This kind of nightmare can be called "king level".

It is one of the best A-level nightmares.

If you encounter one, don't think about it, just run as fast as you can and as far as you can.

"Could it be that what I encountered this time was also a king-level nightmare?" Lao Qi was a little uneasy at this time. He took a deep breath and put aside all distracting thoughts.

The most important thing right now is to complete the task.

Mr. Liao has been very kind to him, and this job is very promising. Only by following an ambitious and aspiring person like Mr. Liao will he have a place in this new world in the future.

And the last time he encountered the King-level Nightmare, he was alone.

Now, he has many powerful subordinates, so even if he really encounters them, Lao Qi feels that he can still fight.

"Everyone, be careful and pay attention to your surroundings. You all know very well that these strange creatures love to launch sneak attacks." Lao Qi warned.

At this moment, the leader of Group A whispered, "Boss, I feel something is wrong."

"What's wrong?"

"I just counted the number of people in our group. There are eleven people in the group, including you, twelve. But I just counted both sides, and there are thirteen people on both sides."

"Are you sure?"

"Boss, I hope I'm wrong, but I know I'm not wrong. We really have one more person here."

Hearing the slightly panicked voice of the leader of Group A, Lao Qi's expression became very serious.

They were marching in a line, and because the streets in the ancient city were dark, the people behind the team could only see their rough outlines.

Lao Qi stopped the team.

Then he looked back and counted the people.

Including himself, he actually counted thirteen people.

Lao Qi secretly thought that something was wrong.

No need to ask, something has sneaked in.

But this is not the biggest problem. The biggest problem is that some strange thing has mixed into their team, and he didn't know about it and was completely unaware of it.

If the team leader hadn't counted the number of people, they wouldn't have known that there was a strange thing in their team.

The team was suddenly stopped, and the other members of Group A were a little confused.

"Boss, what's wrong?"

"Yeah, did something happen?"

A team member asked.

Lao Qi stretched out his hand to stop them from asking questions, and his eyes swept over the team members' bodies and faces one by one.

He is very familiar with these players.

He could call every one of them by name.

Start from the first one and work your way up to the next.

When he saw the last one, Lao Qi's heart skipped a beat.

There was a person standing at the end of the team, with his head down. He was not very clear. He looked like a team member, but his figure looked very unfamiliar.

It's more like a shadow.

A shadow that can walk upright.

Lao Qi is a man who has seen the world and has fought against many terrifying nightmares.

Although he was frightened at this time, he still managed to maintain basic calmness.

He gestured to the others.

The player standing in the second-to-last position obviously realized something was wrong at this time.

He turned pale and tried to look back.

At this time, Lao Qi suddenly took action. The deformed ghost on his stomach suddenly raised his head, reached out and grabbed the ghost, then opened his mouth wide and swallowed the ghost.

This is the strength of Lao Qi.

The ghost that was parasitic on his stomach was extremely powerful, but because it was too powerful, it was definitely not easy to control such a strange thing.

Lao Qi can only keep the other party in a sleeping state most of the time. Generally speaking, with the help of the physical improvement brought by nightmare parasitism, most of the troubles can be solved.

He would only use this deformed parasitic ghost when he really encountered a powerful existence.

After swallowing the ghost, Lao Qi’s face turned pale.

This is because the deformed ghost in the stomach was mobilized.

This is a double-edged sword. While killing the enemy, it will also cause damage to yourself.

Cannot be used all the time.

Otherwise, you will be doomed sooner or later.

"The boss is awesome. He solved it easily." The leader of Group A walked over and said, but at this moment, his pupils shrank.

It seemed like he saw something incredible.

Lao Qi was stunned and looked in the direction the leader of Group A was looking.

Then he saw that the second-to-last player had disappeared, and was replaced by the ghost figure from before.

He still had his head lowered, his figure was blurry, and his aura was terrifying.

"What's going on?" Lao Qi was also confused.

He had clearly used the deformed ghost in his stomach to devour the other person, so why was this ghost still there?

Also, what about the team member from before?

The next moment, he thought of a possibility and his face suddenly turned extremely ugly.

What he just let the parasitic ghost devour might not be this ghost, but that team member.

But how is this done? Transposition?

Or maybe the other party confused my perception, causing me to kill the wrong person.

But no matter which one it is, the situation is very bad.

The leader of Group A nearby was obviously also greatly shocked. He seemed unable to hold back and started to attack.

"Wait a minute." Lao Qi tried to stop him, but failed.

The leader of Group A chopped the ghost in half with one blow.

The team leader has a very sharp knife in his hand.

At this moment, the knife was stained with blood, which was dripping down.

The team leader took action, but his face became even uglier. The ghost moved to another place, but one of his team members fell to the ground.

The head and body were separated.

As expected, he had just chopped it off with his own hands.

A feeling of fear ran straight from the soles of my feet to my forehead.

"What's going on? What on earth is going on?"

Not only the leader of Group A was confused, but everyone else was the same.

Fear is something that is contagious.

Lao Qi could hold it in, but the team leader couldn’t. The team leader could hold it in, but the team members couldn’t hold it in.

Someone fired a shot at the ghost.

As a result, another of our own died.

“Run!”

Lao Qi called out at this time. He finally understood that this strange ghost shadow could not be attacked at all, but it was also dangerous to stay here.

leave.

Must leave as soon as possible.

The remaining few team members ran with him.

But no matter how they ran, they couldn't get rid of this ghost.

Even more unfortunate was that the road ahead was blocked by five figures.

These five people looked like they had just been dug out of the earth, with yellow soil on their clothes, shoes, hands, and hair.

Five people, young and old, like a family of five.

Five people were standing at the intersection, and among them, a child was holding something and chewing it.

Lao Qi took a closer look. Oh my goodness, isn't that the head of the leader of Group C? The kid was holding the bloody head and eating happily. When he saw a group of people running towards him, he looked up and said something.

"Mom, Dad, Grandpa, Grandma, you have food to eat too, are you happy?"

Please give me a monthly ticket!
