At the sa ti, a little girl who looked less than ten years old with a surprisingly good figure hugged Xu Shu’s leg and began crying: "Let go of my mom, let go of my mom!"
This little chaos, other passersby seed indifferent to, no one reached out to help this poor mother and daughter, seemingly eager to quickly enter
"Oh?"
Xu Shu squinted his eyes, thinking it was as expected.
The reaction of this ghostly thing at first glance seed no different from an ordinary person, seemingly very normal.
However, this normality was precisely what was abnormal.
The dead are just that, dead; whether transford into Corpse Evil or Evil Spirit, their existence’s essence has changed, and their behavior patterns naturally change as well.
In other words, no matter how hard they try to maintain human form and mory, their instincts can’t deceive people—they possess an innate craving for the flesh and blood, and living souls of the living.
It’s like a starving wolf seeing a walking sheep; expressions can be faked, but that inherent desire and evil intent are impossible to hide.
This is vividly displayed in Shinkai Haoye, Xidao Aili, and the like who are Third-tier Corpse Kings, especially the forr, who was inherently kind and felt imnse pain towards killing, yet still attacked while crying and devouring humans.
This is the innate malice of the Evil Spirit toward the living.
Instinct is an unchangeable nature, no matter how well hidden, existence is existence—immutable.
How does Xu Shu judge this instinct?
It’s simple; when a target bearing malice appears within a certain range, the Tai Chu to provides a prompt, revealing the opponent’s erosion level and creature type all at a glance.
This was Xu Shu’s evident boldness while acting in the ruins; the "Hyper-dinsional mode" backed him up.
But now...
[Wow, your beastly nature has flared, capturing a pair of poor mother and daughter.]
[Have you decided, preparing for an impassioned fleeting affair?]
[The sky is darkening, you’re standing at the entrance steps to the Dark Mother Goddess Church courtyard amidst the surging crowd, yet it’s completely tily.]
[Go on, master, it’s ti to let the crowd roll downward!]
"Hmmmm..."
The woman struggled in Xu Shu’s arms.
Her daughter knelt on the ground crying.
Xu Shu hesitated between the lines.
The Tai Chu to’s prompt didn’t display the woman’s "occupation," strength, rank.
This indicates these beings are neither Evil Spirits, Demons, nor Aberrations.
If neither human nor monster, what could they be?
Is there possibly another major category outside of these few doors in the strange world?
Even if there is, it shouldn’t be beyond the Tai Chu to’s distinction!
Xu Shu pondered while looking at the Tai Chu to, unable to get the desired result, couldn’t help muttering in his heart: "Can’t you explain more clearly?"
[You attempted to learn more about the woman in your arms but failed; you should perform a test to provide more samples instead of shouting at the Tai Chu to here!] the golden text displayed.
"Ha, pulling these tricks on ."
Xu Shu let out a light laugh and touched his chin.
At this mont, looking at the "woman" and "girl" Xu Shu had caught, Xie Xiaochan seed a bit confused too.
She couldn’t help but question: "What are you doing? Capturing these things is useless, just a waste of ti, killing them doesn’t yield Gold Coins."
"You’ve done so?"
"Yup."
"Defying heaven."
Xu Shu gave a thumbs-up to the bride and then said: "You go in first, I’ll conduct an experint and be right back."
Xie Xiaochan replied: "Don’t ss around, don’t miss the entrance ti!"
"Relax, relax, I’ve got it; there’s still about half an hour before the door closes, it’s tily." Xu Shu waved his hand.
They moved quickly, it took just over half an hour from the bell ringing to reaching the church, Xu Shu rembered it—inside the Tai Chu to is a countdown display for when he would be teleported away.
Seeing Xu Shu so persistent, Xie Xiaochan couldn’t say much, so she entered the church courtyard and looked around not far from the door.
Xu Shu then carried the "woman" and ran directly to the nearby small grove.
Behind, the little girl kept trying to hold Xu Shu tightly, grabbing his clothes with all her might but could only be dragged along, constantly crying out: "Let go of my mom, let go of my mom, boohoo boohoo."
Xu Shu, not being an entirely heartless person, lifted the sowhat obstructive little daughter upside down, examined her from all sides, and then threw her to the ground.
Considering what would follow wasn’t suitable for children, he sinisterly smiled: "Heh heh heh, Mrs., surely you don’t want your daughter to fail to make it to the church before dark?"
"I..." The woman was stunned for a mont, seemingly seriously pondering how to answer.
Xu Shu said: "Make her leave."
The woman imdiately understood, quickly hoarsening her voice and shouted: "Natasha, run, the Mother Goddess will protect , don’t mind mom!"
"No, let go of my mom, boohoo boohoo~"
"Heh heh heh, if you don’t leave now, you won’t be able to leave!"
Amidst the tumultuous darkness, the man’s laughter and the girl’s cries spread out.
However, the world is vast, and everyone’s busy escaping for their own lives, still unwilling to lend a hand, not even sparing a glance.
Ultimately, the S-shaped little girl Natasha looked back every few steps, reluctantly leaving.
In the darkness, she only heard her mother’s cries grow more distant, yet increasingly excited, increasingly urgent.
Natasha knew not what happened, she felt deeply sad inside, as if sothing had emptied within, unable to help but cried even louder:
