173: Chapter 173 Confirmation

"Truth, then. I like hearing the truth; there are already too many lies in this world," Daddy Ghost suddenly said.

Having received the feedback, Chen Mo was now able to ask the other party a question.

"Tell me, where is the item that can kill you hidden?"

Chen Mo had previously tried to use Pete to find the item, but the search had yielded no results.

So... it might be more straightforward to just ask the person himself.

Upon hearing Chen Mo's question, Daddy Ghost's face immediately showed terror, and the veins on his forehead bulged with intense anger.

The other party's answer completely disrupted Chen Mo's train of thought.

"It was a scalpel, hidden in the telephone booth, but it has already been destroyed!"

After answering Chen Mo's question, Daddy Ghost instantly regained control of his body and lunged at Chen Mo with a roar.

Chen Mo covered himself with his cloak, stepped out from behind the flag on the rooftop, and accelerated, leaping and sprinting across the roof.

Daddy Ghost shifted his gaze, locked onto the white figure sprinting along the eaves, and immediately gave chase.

"What does that mean? The scalpel was originally hidden in the telephone booth? But it's already been destroyed?"

"This is an item for dealing with ghosts; it's absolutely impossible for these four ghosts to be the ones who destroyed it."

"Then it must be a player. Did the traitor in the team destroy it after I announced the method for dealing with the ghosts?"

"There really is a traitor in the team!"

A massive black shadow instantly leaped up, raised its claws, and swiped at the back of Chen Mo's head.

Chen Mo fell from the rooftop, rolled twice along the ground, and quickly stood up.

Blue light emerged from his palms, the bone-scraping knife extended, and he transformed into a fallen angel.

Purple electric current condensed at the tip of his magic wand, and he blasted it towards Daddy Ghost's face.

A purple beam of light shot out, but it was much weaker than before.

Daddy Ghost, as if sprayed by a water pistol, easily swatted away the electric light and placed his palms on the ground.

His feet transformed into kangaroo legs, he pushed off the ground with force, and instantly caught up with Chen Mo.

"Damn it!"

Chen Mo gritted his teeth and raised the Moon Ring worn on his finger.

The surface of the black ring, illuminated by moonlight, instantly sprouted countless vine-like patterns.

Then, those patterns grew all over Chen Mo's body.

A powerful energy wave expanded, blocking the charging Daddy Ghost.

Chen Mo lifted his neck and let out a wolf howl towards the bright full moon.

His black hair began to fade and grow, turning into white fur.

Chen Mo's mouth also protruded forward, becoming a wolf's muzzle.

Red light burst from his pupils, and his hands and feet all transformed into sharp blades.

Opening his eyes again, a 3-meter-tall werewolf wearing a white suit appeared before Daddy Ghost.

Chen Mo raised his claws, grabbed Daddy Ghost by the throat with one hand, and pinned him to the ground.

"Is this the power of level 20? You players are truly arrogant!" He laughed excitedly.

The two giant monsters turned into dark afterimages, fighting crazily within the narrow street.

Chen Mo opened his wolf jaws and bit down on Daddy Ghost's arm, his sharp fangs piercing through the arm and straight to the bone.

Using both claws, he gripped the other's arm tightly and swung with force.

"Rip!"

An arm was instantly torn off by Chen Mo and held in his wolf jaws.

Daddy Ghost knelt on one knee, clutching his bleeding arm, gritting his teeth, and glaring fiercely at the werewolf's back as it leaped continuously along the rafters.

"Heh, so there's a time limit? To be able to inflict this kind of damage on me, that's not bad at all."

The werewolf-transformed Chen Mo darted rapidly into the forest, while the pursuing Daddy Ghost turned into a python, slithering left and right as he continued the chase.

"The Moon Ring allows for a werewolf transformation; although strength and speed are qualitatively improved, the physical stamina consumption is too great."

After passing through the next forest, Chen Mo had already reverted to human form.

However, the python behind him was getting faster and faster.

The snake head opened, flicking its tongue incessantly.

Several human eyes opened inside the snake's mouth, staring at Chen Mo's back—which was split into six parts—feeling even more excited.

Ahead was the entrance to the cave, and Chen Mo saw Jiang Xinyi standing at the cave mouth.

The giant snake head began to deform, half of the body turning into a human upper torso.

One of Daddy Ghost's arms turned into wax, quickly forming an axe, and he prepared to chop down at Chen Mo's head.

Jiang Xinyi flicked her fingers, holding two black pills between them.

She tossed them into her mouth, and with a "crunch,"

the pills shattered, and a strange liquid flowed down her throat and through her entire body.

Blue light burst from Jiang Xinyi's pupils.

She waved her hand, gripped her wooden staff, and aimed at the distant Daddy Ghost.

She fired a blue beam of light.

Daddy Ghost, who should have severed Chen Mo's neck, had his speed and strength instantly weakened after being hit by the blue light.

Chen Mo flicked his palm, and Threading the Needle pierced into the tree trunk ahead.

He pulled hard, and the axe smashed down along his back.

Chen Mo lay flat on the ground, sliding rapidly along the terrain.

"Once he gets into the Dormitory, I won't be able to deal with this brat. I must be quick! If I don't kill him, it will be even harder to make new wax figures tomorrow."

Daddy Ghost's thoughts raced; he opened his mouth and bit down on his own arm.

His lips frantically sucked on his own flesh, and soon, one of his arms withered away.

At the same time, all that excess flesh transferred to his legs.

His legs bulged and became engorged with blood, and he began to sprint forward with increased speed.

A "rumbling" sound of trampling footsteps sounded from behind.

Intense Fear, like black lightning, streaked across the sky above.

Jiang Xinyi watched the monster getting closer and closer, but she could no longer do anything to help Chen Mo.

Chen Mo gritted his teeth and grabbed a balloon, holding it in his mouth.

The flexible balloon inflated rapidly and soon transformed into a huge trampoline.

He threw it forward.

Chen Mo leaped, his body landing on the trampoline, and he was bounced away.

Daddy Ghost's arm stretched out, reaching for Chen Mo's ankle.

Chen Mo lifted his legs in the air, instantly causing the other party to grab at thin air.

Jiang Xinyi opened her arms and successfully caught Chen Mo. The two tumbled to the ground, sliding a short distance along the entrance of the cave.

And that hand of Daddy Ghost could only stop at the entrance of the cave, unable to move a single inch further inside.

"Damn it! Damn it!"

A heart-wrenching roar came from outside the cave.

Daddy Ghost stood at the cave entrance, half-crouching, staring at the panting Chen Mo.

He said, "Brat, I'll be waiting here for you tonight."

"No! You don't have time." Although Chen Mo was exhausted, he still managed to show a mocking smile.

Upon hearing this, Daddy Ghost was full of confusion.

However, when a voice sounded behind him, Daddy Ghost's pupils instantly dilated.

"Daddy? I've caught you! I've been wanting to kill you for a long time, you disgusting guy."

Hearing The Artist's laughter, Daddy Ghost instantly transformed into a giant spider and, moving its many legs, fled deep into the forest.

"President, there is a traitor in the team."

Leaving behind this sentence, Chen Mo's eyelids closed automatically, and he entered a dormant state.

Jiang Xinyi knew very well that Chen Mo meant for her to ferret out the traitor while he was unconscious.

And if the traitor were to take action tonight, they would inevitably target the most difficult person in the team to deal with.

"In any case, let's restore Chen Mo's stamina first. In this unconscious state, the night is too dangerous."

Jiang Xinyi decided not to sleep tonight; she had to monitor the situation inside the Dormitory 24 hours a day.

Carrying Chen Mo on her back, Jiang Xinyi's complexion turned very ugly.

She covered her mouth and coughed violently twice.

"The pills for forced stamina recovery act quickly, but my physical condition has become somewhat terrible."

"Only by leaving the dungeon can I recover my health."

Jiang Xinyi hoisted Chen Mo higher on her back, gritted her teeth, and trudged effortfully into the cave.

"Tonight, the President will definitely protect you."
