635: Chapter 624 Plant Trap 635: Chapter 624 Plant Trap After everyone had looked at the photos, Lin Zheyuan announced loudly,
“Afterwards, we verified the identity of the person, nad Liang Ji, a white-collar worker who just wanted to lead a normal life.
He disappeared four days ago while on a night bus, and reappeared looking like this.”
“Through our investigation, during this period on that bus route, at least a dozen people have disappeared.
There must be soone or so monster behind the scenes transforming humans into those bizarre plant-like beings.”
“The mastermind should be sowhere near that bus route.
Your task is to find him.
Once you determine the location, report it to , and we’ll move in together.
Do not act alone.”
After the eting, You Han, Li Dazhuang, Yan Xiu, and Lin Lu imdiately set out to investigate that bus route.
The area covered by the bus route was vast, hence the four split up, each accompanied by so supporters, to investigate different sectors.
Yan Xiu walked the city’s alleys, relying on the power of the mask on his face to search for the corrupt forces in the air, attempting to find that mysterious culprit.
He had once conducted a comprehensive ghost cleaning operation in Furong River City, so he knew the terrain much better than the average person, knowing where was suitable for hiding and where was unlikely to have any issues.
As he searched, Yan Xiu’s gaze suddenly intensified because he spotted a hint of green under the corner of a wall!
The shadow flashed by, but Yan Xiu was very certain about what he saw—it was the tip of a vine, and the moving vine must be the target.
Without a second thought, he imdiately left his supporters behind and chased in that direction.
Although Lin Zheyuan said it was sufficient to just find a clue, the thing might have just been passing by, and once missed, it would be hard to find again.
Moreover, Yan Xiu was quite confident in his own strength, believing that he could handle any problems that arose.
In the current Furong River City Association, only Lin Zheyuan was stronger than Yan Xiu.
He had secretly battled with the remnant spirits within him and had erged victorious, the remnant spirits had dissipated, transferring all their strength to Yan Xiu.
This ant that Yan Xiu could step into the Assimilation Realm whenever he wished!
The reason he was suppressing his realm and hadn’t advanced was because if he were to ascend to the Assimilation Realm without any reaction from the angels, it would surely arouse the suspicions of Glory Church, and soone might co to investigate him, which he could not withstand.
If he were to sever his connection with the angels forcibly and be discovered by Glory Church, he would inevitably be deed a traitor and beco hunted by Glory Church.
Moreover, since the Hunters Association and Glory Church were allies, they wouldn’t be able to provide him with the necessary protection.
Therefore, his advancent had to be extrely cautious; otherwise, he would have to live in the shadows.
The green shadow also noticed Yan Xiu’s pursuit, imdiately accelerating and fleeing quickly, seemingly very unwilling to be caught by Yan Xiu.
During the chase, Yan Xiu finally got a clear look at the person’s appearance.
Just like the person in the photos, his body was also covered with vines and leaves.
The difference was, the plants on this person resembled ivy, allowing him to easily attach himself to the surfaces of buildings and move rapidly, with a very peculiar trajectory, making it quite challenging for Yan Xiu to keep up.
After chasing for a good while, that person finally stopped and entered a building.
Yan Xiu stopped at the doorway and looked up, recognizing it as the academic building of Green Source Middle School.
It was the tail end of the winter break, and there were no people in the school, making it a perfect hiding spot for this kind of creature.
“We need to be cautious now.
It seems like that creature intentionally lured here.
What could possibly be here?”
During the previous chase, the vine man clearly had a chance to escape but seed to deliberately slow down, allowing Yan Xiu to catch up with him.
Therefore, Yan Xiu’s discovery of him was not a coincidence, but rather soone’s intent to draw him here.
As Yan Xiu hesitated about whether to enter, he saw a cluster of white fluff drifting in the sky, flying over and entering the academic building through a window.
Encased in the white fluff was a human with a blank expression.
The human’s every inch of skin was covered in brown spikes, denser than a wasp’s nest, with fluffy white tips at the ends of the spikes.
It was clear that the vegetation growing on this person was from a Dandelion Man.
Following the Dandelion Man was a breathless Li Dazhuang.
He couldn’t fly, so to chase this flying foe, he had run nearly to the point of exhaustion, regretting not having grabbed that blue bow tie.
Upon seeing Yan Xiu, Li Dazhuang’s expression grew serious, understanding the implications of encountering Yan Xiu here.
Then, two more plant people successively entered the academic building, and like Yan Xiu and Li Dazhuang, Lin Lu and You Han had also been drawn to this area by these plant people.
The four of them t at the small square in front of the academic building.
Yan Xiu’s expression behind his mask looked rather grim, “Since you all ended up here as well, it seems that this is no coincidence.
This school is a trap.
Once we step in, we might be ambushed.
It’s better to report back to Lin Zheyuan first, then plan our next steps.”
The creatures luring them here were at least four Monsters of considerable strength.
Who knows how many similar creatures were hidden within this vast academic building, or whether there were any more powerful bosses behind these monsters.
If there were only one or two monsters, Yan Xiu would have definitely tried to confront them, but now that it was clear this was a trap, he wasn’t going to step inside.
Li Dazhuang, holding up his cell phone, said, “I think…
we are already within the trap now.” No cell signal ant they couldn’t call Lin Zheyuan for help.
You Han, looking at the pitch-black academic building, said somberly, “We all left at the sa ti.
The Supporters should have already noticed sothing off and must have sent the ssage back.
The question is, when will the captain be able to find this place.”
“So it seems that until my brother arrives, we can only rely on ourselves.
It looks like the person behind this doesn’t plan to give us much ti,” Lin Lu said, pointing toward the edge of the sports field.
At the edge of the small square in front of the academic building, thick vines with spikes were growing.
These Bloodthirsty Vines were plants from the Inner World.
The coverage area of the Bloodthirsty Vines was large, and none of the four could fly.
While the vines alone might not stop them, escaping would take so ti, and the person behind the scenes wouldn’t give them that ti.
The Bloodthirsty Vines continued to grow, and given the rate of growth, they would likely cover the whole square soon.
Thus, their only choice now was to enter the building.
Yan Xiu sighed, “It looks like now, we have no choice but to go in.
Let’s hope the creatures inside aren’t too welcoming.”
