Chapter 76

Jiang Tianming probably also wanted to find out their intelligence, and he believed in Lan Subing's character, so he straightforwardly told them about the situation on his side.

Because the nightmare beast they wanted to capture only came out at night, they set traps during the day.

Unlike Subei, who knew almost nothing about the Nightmare Beast, they knew all about its appearance, abilities, and habits. It was a Nightmare Beast that looked like a star. It was not a spherical planet like the one in the sky, but a five-pointed star.

This nightmare beast can summon a lot of little stars, and touching them will make you dizzy and see stars. It sounds like a very cute ability, and it doesn't seem like an evil nightmare beast at all.

But if you come into contact with this golden star too much, you will lose all your senses and be eaten by the black star nightmare. Yes, so far five people have died in its mouth, and two victims have managed to save their lives, but now they can only lie at home as vegetables.

It is very brutal indeed.

According to Jiang Tianming, under the control of the supernatural government, this nightmare beast has been active in a relatively fixed place. The traps they set are very complete, and with the tight net, they will probably be able to capture it today.

After listening to his side of the story, when he asked about it, Lan Subing honestly told him about her progress. If both parties wanted to compare, then it would be best to do it openly. If one party was being secretive, what would be the point?

When she turned off her phone, Wu Mingbai couldn't help but sigh and complained quietly: "It sounds like it's much more interesting there than here."

As a forceful person, he wanted to participate in the first mission, but unfortunately the minority obeyed the majority and he ended up in the second mission. Now that he heard that the first mission was so dangerous and interesting, he was immediately tempted again.

Si Zhaohua also felt a little regretful, but as the captain he still said fairly: "This mission is not bad, fighting with others is fun."

Hearing this, everyone nodded. They didn't even see the shadow of the nightmare beast this whole morning. It was really a fight between light and man.

Speaking of this, Lan Subing couldn't help but feel puzzled: "Why do Sister Wang and the others want to harm us?"

Although the house will be returned after they complete their mission, the spots on those people's bodies cannot be removed if they do not complete the mission.

Besides, they were able to come here because the couple took the initiative to surrender to the supernatural government, not because they begged to come. If they didn't want them to come, why not just not apply for it? Why let them come and then hurt them?

This question was also very confusing to everyone. Even Su Bei couldn't figure out what the couple was thinking. He could only guess that it was probably related to the Nightmare Beast. Since they were able to find that the bedroom they were living in was relatively safe, they must have some unknown secret with the Nightmare Beast.

Li Shu said softly, "Don't think too much. Once the supernatural government approves our actions, everything will be clear."

When the time comes, once I cast an illusion, will I still be afraid that they won't tell the truth?

After dinner, the approval from the supernatural government had not yet come down. After a discussion, everyone split into two groups. Zhao Xiaoyu and Wu Mingbai went to the first family's current home to see how their daughter was doing. The rest of the people returned to the villa to look after Sister Wang and the others.

When we returned to the villa, Wang Jie and Liu Ge had already returned and were still in their bedroom. Seeing Su Bei and the others, Wang Jie asked eagerly, "We have been here for a while, can we go back now?"

Compared to Zhao Xiaoyu, Si Zhaohua was not very good at expressing himself tactfully, but he also knew that he couldn't alert the enemy, so he had to find an excuse: "Can we stay here for a day? We think the nightmare beast may move at night. You are the people it has targeted, so you should be able to lure it."

Hearing this, Su Bei almost couldn't help coughing. Isn't this saying "I'm using you as bait"? The reason is reasonable, but it's too inhumane.

The most important thing is that this statement will not cause any alarm, but it does give the couple a reasonable reason to leave the villa.

As expected, the faces of the man and the woman both turned ugly. Brother Liu frowned and looked a little fierce: "What do you mean? We came here with good intentions to help you share your worries, but you used us as bait. Meimei, we're leaving. If you want to find us next time, just call us!"

After saying that, he took Sister Wang's hand and prepared to walk out.

Of course, it was impossible for everyone to let them leave like this. First, if they left, something bad might happen. If they suddenly felt something was wrong and ran away secretly, it would be troublesome to chase them.

Second, because their group is still secretly competing with the group next door, if they let this couple go, there is a high probability that they will not be able to complete the task today, and there is a high probability that they will lose.

Seeing that Su Bei acted as if it had nothing to do with him, and Lan Subing and Wu Jin were unreliable in talking to outsiders, Li Shu became more and more impatient.

It was really annoying. He didn't want to get tangled up with two ordinary people with evil intentions. If he said it mildly, he wouldn't be able to control them. If he said it too harshly, it would easily make them wary. It would be better to just use [Illusion] to control them.

Thinking of this, his eyes sparkled, and his fingers below began to move gently. As for the rules, they were kept secret. As long as no one reported it, how could the supernatural government know?

Then, before he could start to move, Su Bei gently pulled him and gave him a warning look.

Who is Su Bei? He is definitely a shrewd man. He had expected that among the four of them, Li Shu would be the most restless, so he had been watching him secretly. Just when he saw the annoyance hidden in his eyes, Su Bei guessed his mind.

He doesn't care about things, but he will never allow anyone to mess things up.

You know, these people didn't know, but he knew very well that there must be at least one teacher watching them. Li Shu's little move couldn't have gone unnoticed.

In fact, if the teacher was not there, Su Bei would have no reason to say anything. Even if he was punished by the supernatural government, he would be the only one punished, and no one else would be implicated.

Li Shu was half a stranger to him, and he was not so kind as to mind the affairs of a stranger.

But it is a different story when the teachers are present. In previous teaching, it is obvious that they want the 15 students in a class to get familiar with each other, so the system of collective responsibility is essential.

If Li Shu made a mistake, the whole team would be punished. Su Bei didn't want to be blamed for someone else's mistakes.

Li Shu was obviously a little dissatisfied and puzzled after receiving Su Bei's warning. It goes without saying that he was dissatisfied, but he was puzzled because he thought he had understood Su Bei during this period of time. Su Bei was not a person who liked to meddle in other people's affairs. He didn't understand why Su Bei suddenly warned him.

Su Bei motioned him to look at Si Zhaohua. As their eyes exchanged glances, Si Zhaohua had already thought of a plan. He changed his previous friendly attitude and said coldly: "We are sent by the supernatural government, and we can definitely guarantee your safety. If you don't believe in the supernatural government, then don't invite us. You leave now, and we will seal up this house to prevent it from harming others again."

I have to say, this young master is really imposing when he has a cold face, and the arrogance brought by his family background is displayed to the fullest.

What he said was also very meaningful. This couple invited people from the supernatural government. No matter why, they definitely didn't want their house to be sealed off. Otherwise, if they just delayed for a while, the supernatural government would naturally do this.

This was what they had agreed upon before. After all, they couldn't keep an eye on this place forever, and they couldn't let the nightmare beast in the house get out and harm others.

Since they didn't want the house to be sealed off, Si Zhaohua's words hit the soft spot of these two people.

"...We are just worried about our safety." The two people stopped at the door and paused for a long time. Sister Wang turned around and said awkwardly, "Besides, it doesn't necessarily have to be us. Wouldn't it be the same if you called the previous family? I remember that their daughter is still alive."

This was a bit vicious. Li Shu smiled and said kindly: "The girl is still very weak. If she comes again, something bad might happen."

Seeing that Si Zhaohua was able to handle the matter smoothly, he immediately felt much more relieved. He felt that Su Bei was helping him just now, so his words were not so sarcastic. But at the end, he still had to add with a smile: "We don't mind changing people, but since it was you who proposed this matter..."

Before he could finish his words, Sister Wang interrupted him: "No, no, I was just saying it casually. How can you really let a child do such a thing?"

Of course, she didn't say it casually, but Li Shu's words reminded her. If something really happened to the little girl here, they would probably be condemned by thousands of people for making this request.

Both she and Brother Liu looked a little embarrassed, no longer as fierce as before. They were originally the enemy and they were weak, and when they saw the originally kind people suddenly change their faces, they immediately dared not take advantage of the opportunity to save trouble.

After a while, Wu Mingbai and Zhao Xiaoyu came back. Their expressions were heavy, and it was obvious that the little girl was not in good condition.

Sure enough, when people asked about it, Zhao Xiaoyu sighed and glanced at the couple: "The spots on her body are a lighter blue-black color, and she looks very weak, as if she has been ill for a long time. I saw that she looked unhappy, and I heard that she has become a little autistic."

Hearing her say this, Sister Wang's eyes flickered and she lowered her head. After a moment, she raised her head again with a worried expression on her face. Brother Liu, on the other hand, was the same as always, as if he hadn't heard anything.

At seven o'clock in the evening, Si Zhaohua's cell phone made a soft "ding" sound, which was a message from the supernatural government.

——"Action approved."

Seeing the words "Action Approved", everyone exchanged glances and showed a tacit understanding. They discussed with their eyes who should take action, and finally Li Shu stood out.

However, because they didn't know where the nightmare beasts were, they decided to take them away from the villa before taking action.

After thinking for a while, Li Shu said gently: "But it is indeed dangerous in this room. You can go out for a while."

Hearing that they could go out, Sister Wang and Brother Liu naturally agreed. They quickly followed the others to open the door and went out.

As soon as they went out, Lan Subing immediately closed the door, and Li Shu started to take action. To deal with ordinary people, there was no need to go over and touch them. He used a [illusion] in the air and easily made the two people fall into a dazed state.

"What kind of illusion did you create?" Wu Bai asked with rare curiosity. Unless there were external enemies, he would never talk to Li Shu properly.

However, when their eyes fell on Lan Subing, who had a pair of sparkling aquamarine eyes behind him, everyone understood.

Li Shu closed his eyes and raised his lips: "I set up the underworld fantasy. I hope they can have fun."

Currently, the illusions he can create are divided into preset illusions and real-time illusions. The former is of course more detailed and more realistic. However, he can only store three preset illusions at present.

The latter needs to be created on the spot, which is much more difficult. Not only does he need to quickly construct the scene and character dialogue, but he also needs to combine it with the other party's memory. Otherwise, if the other party does not have such a memory in his mind, it will be difficult to set it up.

No one knew what Sister Wang and Brother Liu saw in the illusion, but soon they both burst into tears and confessed everything.

"Wuwuwu, I'm sorry! We are just afraid of death! That damn thing threatened us that we would die immediately if we didn't obey! We are still safe, please let us go!"

Li Shu asked slowly, "Describe your transaction in detail from beginning to end. I want to see if there are any discrepancies with our records."

Sister Wang quickly told the truth: "We first saw that thing three months after we moved in. At that time, we started to get blue spots on our bodies. We were so panicked that we wanted to ask for help from the supernatural government. But suddenly a human face protruded from the wall and threatened us that we must listen to it, otherwise it would kill us now."

"The wall of the game room?" Li Shu interrupted and asked.

Sister Wang was not surprised at all that he knew this. It was normal for Prince Yan to know everything. She nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, that's it!"

"Go on."

"Then it threatened us that we had to bring in more people. The more people there were, the safer we would be. Brother Liu and I decided to start decorating the house. There were many decorators coming and going, and it really met its requirements." When she said this, Sister Wang's voice became softer, and it was obvious that she knew what she was doing was wrong.

But Brother Liu, who was standing next to them, cried and defended them: "If we don't do it, we will die. There is really no other way."

"Although those renovation workers didn't have blue spots," Li Shu wanted to ask this question, but for the sake of Prince Yan's all-knowing personality, he added sharply, "But that doesn't mean you didn't hurt anyone! Do you really think I don't know what happened to those people?"

"Those people are better than us!" Brother Liu said excitedly, "At least they don't have to die immediately."

They don’t have to die immediately, but they will die later. It seems that the diseases in the bodies of the renovation workers will be delayed in breaking out.

Sister Wang quickly pulled him, fearing that he would anger Prince Yan, and continued, "Perhaps it was satisfied, so it told us that the bedroom directly above the game was safer than other places, so we moved there."

There was only one thing left: "Then some time ago, it told us that we could invite people from the supernatural government."

Hearing this, everyone's heart suddenly sank. There were only two possibilities for the nightmare beast to dare to issue such an order. Either it was already capable of fighting against the superpowers, or it was sure that it could deceive the superpower government and continue to be at large after the inspection.

But in either case, they knew things were getting more complicated.

Having known the whole story, Li Shu stopped role-playing for the moment and looked at the others: "What should we do next?"

This is a good question. Si Zhaohua pondered for a moment, and suddenly an idea came to his mind: "Let them put on a show."

After a while, the door of the villa was pushed open again. Both Wang Jie and Liu Ge looked a little unnatural, and their faces turned slightly pale.

The two looked at each other in silence for a moment, and Sister Wang said, "Those supernatural beings have gone to eat. Let's quickly ask the gods what to do now!"

Brother Liu immediately nodded and said, "We have to go ask. Let's go."

Arriving at the game room, Sister Wang said to the back wall: "Sir, we would like to ask what we should do next. Do we need to find a way to drive these superpowers away?"

A one-meter-tall human face protruded from the middle of the wall, its mouth opening and closing as it scolded, "Bring it back!"

Outside the villa.

Listening to the voice on the phone, Wu Mingbai showed a strange expression: "This voice is too weird!"

Lan Subing nodded slightly in approval: "It sounds like the sound of many overlapping walls rubbing against each other."

It was very unpleasant and harsh, and it was a shame that the couple didn't show any of it.

When they heard Sister Wang say that this nightmare beast could speak, they were very surprised and even suspected that humans had intervened. Now it seems that there should be no problem. This nightmare beast can't really speak, but can only make the sound of speaking by relying on other things.

"Can you feel the breath of the Nightmare Beast now?" Si Zhaohua looked at Wu Jin and asked.

Wu Jin nodded affirmatively: "Yes, I suspect that this nightmare beast looks like a wall."

The entire wall was filled with the disgusting smell of the Nightmare.

"Then why don't we just destroy this wall?" Lan Subing asked.

Zhao Xiaoyu shook his head: "That wall seems to be the load-bearing wall of this villa. The supernatural government probably doesn't want to destroy this villa, otherwise they wouldn't have sent us here."

If destroying the villa would solve the problem, no one would have taken the job for so long. After all, it is easy to destroy an ordinary house, and there is no need to enter to bear the risk.

What should they do? Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, and suddenly realized that they had no good way to deal with this mid-level nightmare beast.

Nightmare beasts generally have weaknesses. For example, the body structures of most common beasts and animals are similar, so their brains and hearts are their fatal points. However, there is no such rule for intermediate nightmare beasts, and their fatal points are different.

But they couldn't possibly stab the whole wall with daggers. You know, although the nightmare beast's main body is the wall of the game room, its weakness may not be on this wall. After all, it can obviously sneak around in other rooms.

Fortunately, everyone had already learned for such a long time that the knowledge of dealing with nightmare beasts was imprinted in their minds. Si Zhaohua said directly: "Then use your mental power to send it to the west."

In addition to directly destroying the Nightmare Beast's body, using mental power to destroy it is also a method. This is especially common when dealing with intermediate and high-level Nightmare Beasts.

Control the opponent and attack directly with mental power. It is difficult for ordinary psychics to do this, and they must cooperate with their superpowers. For example, Li Shu used [Illusion] to cover the wall, increased mental power output and attacked with all his strength.

In fact, this is not much different from a normal attack, except that the mental power attached to the normal attack is much greater.

However, Su Bei does not have this problem. His advanced mental power has made it possible to materialize the mental power, so he can just attack directly.

"But with us here, it shouldn't show up, right?" Wu Mingbai asked with a frown. It was obvious that the other party didn't want to show up in front of them for the time being, so even if they went over, they wouldn't be able to get it out, let alone control it.

"I can try." Lan Subing raised her hand weakly. She was not sure if her [Word Spirit] could control the nightmare beast to come out on its own. But at least when facing the nightmare beast, she was not socially phobic, so her supernatural power would naturally be more effective.

This is indeed a method. After all, we don't need to worry about making a fuss. The main body of this intermediate nightmare beast is this wall, so it can't escape.

They went straight into the game room, sent Sister Wang and Brother Liu out, and asked Wu Jin and Zhao Xiaoyu to guard outside. Their mental power was a little weak compared to others, and they might not cause much damage to the nightmare beast, but they could make the best use of it.

Although Wu Jin had never had much presence, he had trained with them for so many days, so his fighting skills were sufficient. Not to mention Zhao Xiaoyu, whose current training focus was physical training, and her fighting skills were better than many people in the class.

Although the opponents were two adults, and one was a big and strong man, they not only had outstanding fighting skills, but their physical fitness was also greatly enhanced by the enhancement of superpowers, which was completely enough to deal with two ordinary people.

In the game room, Si Zhaohua used his [Angel] ability. His wings were supposed to be very large, and it would be difficult for him to use them in such a small space. Well, he had made a lot of progress in the past month, and now he could control his wings and maintain a very small form.

Looking at the two palm-sized wings behind Si Zhaohua, everyone couldn't help but smile even though it should have been a very serious occasion. They never thought that controlling the corners of their mouths would be so difficult.

"Poof!" The first one who couldn't hold back was Lan Subing, she laughed out loud.

With one person taking the lead, the others couldn't help themselves and started laughing, holding their stomachs.

Su Bei quickly took out his mobile phone and took a picture. This time he remembered to turn off the flash so no one noticed and he successfully recorded this black history.

Si Zhaohua could barely accept the teasing looks at first, but when someone laughed, he got completely angry and embarrassed: "What are you laughing at! If it wasn't for giving you more space, would I have to do this?"

Everyone quickly suppressed their smiles and tried to comfort him. Li Shu said softly, "This is very cute. It's more approachable than the big wings."

"What I don't need the most is being approachable." Si Zhaohua snorted coldly, looking at Lan Subing who was the first to laugh and then huddled in the corner to pack mushrooms, and said helplessly, "Use your supernatural power quickly."

Lan Subing became serious, pulled down her scarf, coughed, and used her supernatural power towards the wall: "Appear"
