After dealing with the Tin Man, Li Changhe spent so ti in the furniture city.
He couldn’t restore the dug-out hearts, but he shouldn’t let their bodies be left neglected in a corner.
Who knew if there were any strange creatures lurking nearby that specifically preyed on corpses.
They had sacrificed themselves to protect the public, and though he couldn’t do anything else, he at least wouldn’t let their bodies be desecrated.
He placed the bodies of the few sacrificed special forces soldiers in an office inside the furniture city, and the Great Wall Council would find them afterwards.
Now that the strange creatures were gone, it was ti for Li Changhe to evacuate.
Dressed as an ordinary student, he headed towards the nearest evacuation point.
With faint traces of blood on his body, a frightened look in his eyes, and pale complexion, he looked like a terrified student.
"If all the slain fairytale creatures, like the Tin Man, dropped room cards as they died," Li Changhe discussed with Yun Ting in his mind, "Doesn’t that an that so things can also board the Dream Cruise?"
"You an... there might be more dangerous things on the Dream Cruise?" Yun Ting, currently an assassin ranked heroic spirit, was hiding close to Li Changhe using her Aura Concealnt. Outsiders could not notice her presence at all.
"I’m not sure, but I suddenly got that feeling." Li Changhe pondered in his mind that the Evolution Ga called the Dream Cruise a paradise, and as a [Player], he should understand the nature of the [Evolution Ga].
Paradise may be too one-sided, but it must deserve this na in so way.
In that case, the situation of these fairytale creatures was sowhat similar to [Players].
Other strange creatures or humans might attack the fairytale creatures for room cards in order to board the ship.
Unfortunately, he had too little information and could only guess this far.
"Don’t think too much. Leave the north bank first. The next whistle sound could co at any ti, and if you’re dragged into it, it will be passive." Yun Ting asked, "Did you see any traces of Liu Tao and the others?"
"At least, Black Hawk didn’t see their figures. But the traces they left behind are quite obvious." Li Changhe glanced at the ground; the effect of the Hawk Eye Magic Eye’s trace tracking made it easy for him to see where Liu Tao and the others had been.
"They should have evacuated by now. The Furniture City is only about a kiloter from the shore, and I even helped them with the Tin Man. They should have been able to make it out." Li Changhe responded in his heart, "All that’s left is for to avoid them and find another evacuation point. As for the hypnosis thod, with my energy attribute and psychological frawork, theoretically there shouldn’t be any effect. But just in case, Old Bai will co and check on ."
This way, Li Changhe’s [Player] identity would not be exposed, and he could safely evacuate.
He had to be careful; there were too many [Players] with strange abilities.
Although Liu Tao was a mber of the Great Wall Special Forces, it could not be guaranteed that his mory would not be spied on by soone with ulterior motives at any ti.
He must be cautious about this.
Just as he was about to leave, Li Changhe suddenly stopped.
He heard a clear flute sound... a clear and crisp one.
The sound of the flute drifted through the alley, making Li Changhe want to approach a certain direction.
"ntal interference!" Li Changhe’s face changed slightly, feeling a sense of foreboding.
Looking at the ground, the traces of Liu Tao and the others had indeed been cut off here.
They were supposed to be able to see the coast by walking out of the alley and going another 200 ters or so.
However, their footprints suddenly turned to the side and headed towards a nearby bar.
As special forces soldiers, Liu Tao and the others wouldn’t suddenly want to have a drink at a ti like this, would they?
"You couldn’t possibly... you guys..." Li Changhe’s eyes rapidly swept through the buildings. The Black Hawk in the sky didn’t notice anyone lingering on the street.
Which ant, they must have been taken inside a building.
At the sa ti, the Hawk Eye Magic Eye detected a group of black objects slowly moving in the corners.
These were packs of... rats.
They seed to be guided by the flute sound, quietly waiting for so instruction in the corners. Their pitch-black fur blended in with the dark corners.
As if they realized they were being watched, hundreds of rats turned to look at Li Changhe in unison.
Li Changhe remained unflinching, expressionlessly walking towards the bar.
Having faced rat n in groups during the [Chang’an Plague], these ordinary rats posed no threat to him.
As he approached, the rats in the surrounding area began to stir and poured in from all sides.
However, sensing a dangerous aura, they didn’t rashly approach Li Changhe. Instead, as he drew closer, they made way to form a path.
Li Changhe arrived at the entrance to the bar and slled a nauseating stench mixed with the sll of blood.
He pushed open the half-open wooden door and saw a group of people huddled in the corner.
There were probably seven or eight people, including the male student who had pushed the female student earlier.
It was clear that their minds were being controlled by the flute sound, leaving them in a daze.
They had no reaction to Li Changhe’s appearance.
Li Changhe didn’t pay attention to them either. After a quick glance, he continued walking to the stage near the center of the bar.
He stopped, looking down at the two mutilated corpses.
Li Changhe was silent for a long ti: "I actually hoped that after coming in here, I’d see you two drinking and slacking off. Facing these non-human beings, the pressure is high, and it’s understandable to want a drink."
No one could respond to him; the surroundings were filled with the barely audible sound of the flute and the rats that resented Li Changhe for interrupting their al.
"Actually, we count as colleagues. I’m sure you know Brother Dong, the forr captain of Team Three in the Yanyun Division. He hasn’t stopped praising your Special Forces." Li Changhe whispered, "I actually admire you guys. You’re neither Players nor Extraordinary, but with re mortal bodies, you overpower demons and beasts. Many [Players] get nervous when they see you guys in action. Although you and Old Zhao said that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility... "
"It’s just too stifling to die at the hands of this guy... just one step away." Li Changhe sighed, "I was thinking about how to deceive you guys... Why did you have to die in this godforsaken place? Did I do sothing wrong?"
Previously, he had let Yun Ting appear in front of Liu Tao.
The reason was to misguide Liu Tao and allow Li Changhe to avoid being detected.
Unfortunately, it was all in vain.
Liu Tao and his teammate had already died here.
Not only that, their corpses were being desecrated and gnawed by the rats, and Li Changhe couldn’t even recognize which of the two bodies was Liu Tao.
At this mont, the harsh sound of the whistle echoed from afar.
Li Changhe felt a force pulling at him, and he seed to be about to be dragged into the Dream Cruise. He’d spent too much ti dilly-dallying.
"So be it..." Li Changhe picked up the pistol lying next to the corpse and sighed lightly, "Although I didn’t plan to go, I feel like I won’t be doing justice to Liu Tao and the others if I don’t personally kill you."
"Halin Piper!"
