Chapter 57 The Man-Eating Umbrella



Seeing that Yanluo was about to wake up, Su Qing quickly closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep.

Yanluo opened her eyes and saw Su Qing sleeping alone beside her. She subconsciously hugged Su Qing in her arms and then closed her eyes again.

Su Qing had her back to Yan Luo, her face so red it looked like it could drip water.

After a while, once she was sure Yanluo was fast asleep, Su Qing quietly got up, kissed Yanluo, and went back to her room.

Not long after Su Qing lay down, Chi Miaomiao's phone rang with a low, urgent alarm.

Chi Miaomiao suddenly opened her eyes, picked up her phone and saw a message about hunting eighth-level enemies in Stone Capital.

Chi Miaomiao comforted Su Qing.

"I'm sorry, Sister Qing, I have urgent work to do. I need to take Yanluo with me. I'll have to leave the children in your care."

Su Qing nodded and smiled, "Go ahead, I'll take care of things at home."

When Chi Miaomiao woke up, she felt that Su Qing beside her was a little different, as if she had a more mature, married feel.

However, Chi Miaomiao didn't have time to think about these things for the time being. She hurriedly changed her clothes, ran to the master bedroom, pulled Yan Luo up, and set off with the two ghost artifact boxes.

Chi Miaomiao brought Yan Luo to the Yangcheng Ghost Hunting Branch. This time they had to be quick, as the eighth-level corpse ghost Duan Feng was still devouring flesh and blood, having already been eating for a full six hours.

We have to get there before it finishes eating, or we'll be in trouble.

This is the duty of the Ninth Squad: to defend Guangzhou and, when they cannot kill the zombies in other cities in the province, to go and deal with them.

However, since Yanluo was there, she didn't wake Zhong Jiudao and the others; it was quite a hassle early in the morning.

Yanluo: "?"

Armed helicopters took off and headed straight for Shidu.

Eight o'clock in the morning.

Duan Feng was finally going to eat everyone on the construction site, and during this time, he ate and slept at the same time.

Duan Feng now feels omnipotent, like a god.

No more being cowardly, no more being subservient, no more being afraid of this and that.

In nature, only animals that feel incredibly powerful and have no enemies that can threaten them can sleep peacefully.

Duan Feng felt that he was exactly like that.

I slept for an hour or two, then woke up and had breakfast.

Ghouls do not need to sleep.

The significance of Duan Feng's actions is self-evident.

It's just to show off their power.

Yan Luo leaned on Chi Miaomiao's shoulder. Seeing that they were about to reach their destination, Chi Miaomiao pinched Yan Luo's cheek.

"Get up, we're almost there."

Yanluo had no choice but to open her eyes and stand up angrily.

He said to the young driver in front, "Dude, hover over that area."

The driver was a little stunned. Although he knew that the two behind him were from the Ninth Squad, didn't they have to go down to fight the ghouls?

Is it possible to do this on an airplane?

However, all I need to do is obey orders.

Upon entering the low-altitude airspace of the target location, the pilot signaled that it was safe to proceed.

Yan Luo opened the cabin door, and a fierce wind rushed into the helicopter. He then took out the ghost artifact—the Chaos Umbrella.

According to Fan Wujiu, Yan Wuxie brought this pure black oil-paper umbrella from an ancient site.

After five years of development, Yanluo only knew that this ordinary umbrella had two exceptionally powerful abilities.

First, it can transform into any weapon that Yanluo desires, except for firearms, because Yanluo cannot conceive of the internal structure of firearms. Moreover, for double insurance, beheading and heart destruction, cold weapons are the best choice.

Yanluo named this ability "Myriad Transformations".

Secondly, and this is the second ability that Yanluo least wants to mention.

[Devour]

This umbrella can devour people; the stronger the person it devours, the stronger its power becomes.

Yanlu didn't know if her grandfather had discovered this ability back then.

During one of Yanluo's missions, the corpse of a seventh-tier ghost hunter who had been sacrificed was not completely devoured. The umbrella detached from Yanluo's hand, opened on its own, and extended several tentacles to pull the corpse into the umbrella.

After the body was pulled into the umbrella, the umbrella closed by itself.

That scene was unforgettable for Yanluo and everyone else in the Lonely Beast.

That was the first time this umbrella had eaten someone.

The power that was fed back to Yanluo was also very real.

The master told Yanluo to be more careful in the future and not to let this strange umbrella cloud her mind.

That would be no different from a ghoul.

Three years ago, when Yanluo was 18 years old, he went to the western border of Longxia to carry out a mission. All six people, including his master, were devoured by the Chaos Umbrella after their deaths.

Under these extreme circumstances, Yanluo also advanced to become a ninth-level ghost hunter.

Yanluo's strength is undoubtedly the strongest among all ninth-tier beings, because the connection with the Chaos Umbrella gives Yanluo the power of six ninth-tier beings.

This is why Lin Tu only needed two hits to die.

That's enough small talk.

Yan Luo used the [Myriad Transformations] technique, and the oil-paper umbrella in her hand transformed into a bow, the black bow exuding a chilling aura.

He drew his bow and nocked an arrow, which drew out the Qi from Yanluo's body.

Qi is condensed in the body through the practice of Qigong techniques, and the amount of Qi is also the basis for the level of cultivation.

The chilling aura that Xie Huai'an creates when using the Soul-Hooking Lock is an example of the use of Qi.

Duan Feng below took the last bite of his "breakfast".

Looking up, I saw an armed helicopter hovering in mid-air.

A sense of crisis suddenly arose in Duan Feng's mind, and he subconsciously used his hands to defend himself, while the six bone spurs on his back also moved to defend against him.

However, it could not withstand this arrow.

The black arrow, gleaming with a cold light, broke through Duan Feng's defenses and pierced his heart.

Duan Feng lowered his head in disbelief, looking at the large hole that had suddenly appeared in his chest, and slowly fell to the ground.

As he fell, Yanluo quickly fired another arrow.

This arrow shattered Duan Feng's skull.

The tall, headless body fell to the ground and began to turn into black ash and dissipate.

The bow turned back into an umbrella, and Yanluo put the umbrella back into the box.

While the driver was still in a daze, Yan Luo closed the door and sat back down next to Chi Miaomiao.

Let's go!

The pilot snapped out of his daze at the sound and piloted the helicopter back to Guangzhou.

On the ground, all five members of the 46th squad stared wide-eyed at the mess on the open ground not far away.

Lin Dong watched the armed helicopter disappear into the distance and sighed.

"Was it that person again?"

Xu Ziming's eyes were dark. He was the team member who knelt down and wept bitterly for his incompetence during the hunt for Lin Tu.

Xu Ziming clenched his fists, his heart filled with anger. Once again, so many people had died because of his incompetence.

"I will definitely become stronger."

"I don't want to see so many innocent people die anymore."

Lin Dong patted Xu Ziming on the shoulder.

"Keep it up!"

"Let's go clean up this mess."

...

At nine o'clock in the morning, Yanluo and Chi Miaomiao returned home.

Su Qing was making breakfast in the kitchen.

Yanluo and the other person returned.

"Wow, you guys came so fast this time?"

Yanlu pouted. She hadn't even changed her clothes before being dragged out in them.

Chi Miaomiao smiled.

"It was processed relatively quickly."

Su Qing nodded and carried the bacon and eggs out of the kitchen.

"Hurry up and get ready, it's time for breakfast."

"Ayan, go and wake the children up."

Yan Luo went upstairs with a miserable expression.

P.S.: Sorry for the poor reading experience. Here's a new chapter to make up for it.
