8: When disaster strikes, everyone runs away!

Song Zhong followed Lin Qi Ye and the others all the way to the vicinity of the Old City.

Suddenly, he felt a certain change; in the distance, a giant triangular prism of space abruptly appeared over the Old City.

"The Night Watcher team has also started to move. This is good, very good!"

Song Zhong's heart rate began to accelerate without him realizing it.

He knew that not only were there Ghost Faces in the Old City, but also a Ghost Face King of the Chuan Realm.

After hearing Jiang Qian's sharp scream, he knew that the Ghost Faces were about to appear.

"It's almost time!"

Song Zhong opened his System panel, navigated to the taskbar, and clicked on it.

After flipping through a few pages, Song Zhong locked onto two tasks.

[Kill 1 Chuan Realm Mysterious, take its Five Organs, arrange them according to the Five Elements corresponding to the Five Directions, and use the host's blood as a guide for the sacrifice! Sacrifice Value: 130]

[Kill 10 Zhan Realm Mysterious, peel off their faces, arrange them in a circle according to the kill order, and use the host's blood as a guide for the sacrifice! Sacrifice Value: 30]

"Peel faces?"

Song Zhong unconsciously touched the fruit knife on his lower back, "Hehe, it's my first time doing something like this, so I don't have much experience!"

The next second, Song Zhong pulled out a Little Pig Peppa mask from his Pregnant and put it on his face, disappearing into the night.

In the alley, Lin Qi Ye and the others also had no intention of lingering.

In this situation, rushing home as quickly as possible was the wisest choice.

"Um, Lin Qi Ye, I won't walk you back!" Liu Yuan's tone carried a hint of awkwardness.

Jiang Qian also said awkwardly, "Lin Qi Ye, it's too late, I'm going back first too!"

Lin Qi Ye nodded, "Then you two be careful!"

Just as the two were about to leave, they noticed Li Yifei inhaling deeply in the direction Wang Shao had left.

"Li Yifei, what are you doing?" Jiang Qian asked.

Li Yifei made a "shush" gesture and said, "Do you smell it, the stench?"

"Stench?" Jiang Qian and Liu Yuan were both stunned and began to sniff like Li Yifei.

"It doesn't seem to smell bad?" Liu Yuan looked at Li Yifei in confusion.

"Me neither, no... Ugh!" Jiang Qian was about to refute Li Yifei, but before she could finish speaking, she started to dry heave.

At this moment, Liu Yuan's expression also changed; it was clear that he too had smelled that nauseating odor.

Even Lin Qi Ye smelled that odor. How to describe it?

It was like a piece of meat that had rotted for over ten days thrown into a septic tank, then mixed with a carton of rotten egg liquid.

Every breath was an extreme challenge to the sense of smell.

Jiang Qian even squatted directly on the ground, vomiting up the crispy potato she had eaten at noon.

"Damn it, what the hell smells so bad?" Li Yifei said with difficulty.

"I don't know!" Lin Qi Ye slowed his breathing, carefully distinguished it, and then said, "It seems to be coming from that direction!"

Lin Qi Ye pointed his hand in a direction, which was precisely where Wang Shao had just left.

Li Yifei's face was ashen, "Oh my god, I hope I didn't actually jinx it!"

"Ah! Killer... serial killer!"

A mournful scream came from the alley.

In the dead of night, the sound was exceptionally clear...

Outside the Old City, Zhao Kongcheng was sitting on the curb playing Candy Crush.

Suddenly, an urgent voice came through his earpiece.

"Zhao Kongcheng!"

Zhao Kongcheng immediately sat up from the ground, "Here, Captain, what's wrong?"

"Something's wrong. Among this batch of Ghost Faces, there's also a Ghost Face King hidden. While we were encircling the other Ghost Faces, he severely injured Hong Ying!"

"What?" Zhao Kongcheng was greatly surprised. A Ghost Face King, that's at least a Mysterious of the Chuan Realm!

"Kongcheng, not only that, the number of Ghost Faces at the encirclement point is also wrong. A portion of the Ghost Faces must have moved!"

"Shit!" Zhao Kongcheng immediately cursed.

The Ghost Faces split into two groups?

That would greatly increase the danger, and those Mysterious might not even be within the Old City.

"Kongcheng, we can't spare anyone right now. Your task is to search outwards with the Old City as the center. Once you find any Mysterious, report it to us immediately!"

"Understood, Captain!"

Chen Muye suddenly admonished again, "Kongcheng, you're not good at combat. After finding traces of Ghost Faces, report immediately. Don't act rashly!"

Zhao Kongcheng's mouth twitched. His little thoughts were completely seen through by the Captain.

"Got it, Captain!"

Zhao Kongcheng got into the van and sped away with a stomp on the accelerator.

Inside the alley, Lin Qi Ye and the others were completely dumbfounded. A perverted serial killer?

Oh no, Li Yifei, that jinx, was actually right!

The few of them exchanged glances, wondering what exactly was happening inside?

Lin Qi Ye gripped his cane tightly. A perverted serial killer, the outskirts of the Old City, a strange foul smell and screams...

Something's not right.

Twelve out of ten, something's not right.

Just as the few of them were at a loss, a figure suddenly darted out of the alley, accompanied by a strong, foul odor of urine.

"Monster, serial killer, serial killer, monster..."

Wang Shao's eyes were vacant, and he looked like a madman who had just escaped from a mental hospital, continuously repeating these two words.

Stinking yellow liquid flowed down his thighs, leaving a long wet trail behind him.

Wang Shao's sudden appearance panicked Lin Qi Ye and the others.

They had originally planned to run away, but now, even though Wang Shao seemed to have gone mad, he was at least still alive. To just abandon him and run away, they all felt a little guilty.

And looking at Wang Shao, 'monster' and 'serial killer' seemed to be two different things!

"Awooo!"

Suddenly, another strange cry came from the alley, followed by a humanoid creature with a Ghost Face, scuttling on all fours, rushing over.

The creature was like a hyena, incredibly fast and very burly.

Wang Shao must have seen this thing to have been scared out of his mind.

"Ah! Monster!"

Jiang Qian couldn't help but scream, then disregarded her concern for Wang Shao, turned around, and ran!

Lin Qi Ye was hesitating when he was suddenly pushed aside, "Don't block the way, I need to escape!"

Liu Yuan, like Jiang Qian, also fled for his life.

Lin Qi Ye's pupils suddenly contracted. He smiled, a very cold smile.

At this moment, a pair of warm hands pulled Lin Qi Ye up.

It was Li Yifei!

"Run!"

Lin Qi Ye was stunned, not expecting this kid to stick by him.

"Don't worry about me, you run!" Lin Qi Ye shouted, afraid that he would drag Li Yifei down.

Lin Qi Ye did this partly because he didn't want to owe a favor, and partly because he knew he was special.

"Are you out of your mind? What's with the politeness at a time like this!"

Li Yifei was truly anxious.

But in an instant, Li Yifei's eyes were filled only with fear; the Ghost Face monster had already passed Wang Shao and was now in front of him and Lin Qi Ye.
