It stinks!
It stinks even more than the underground cave...
On the contrary, Cen Xiangyun seemed to be very accustomed to the smell and didn't even frown.
It's simple. She recently passed the internship and became a full-time employee of the "company". The job location is... It's hard to describe.
"But I can't seem to walk anymore."
Luo Ling said helplessly. She tried to move her feet, but found that the previous "growth" had exhausted her physical strength and even consumed some of her vitality.
She originally had thick black shoulder-length hair, but now it was mixed with a hint of paleness, as if it had been highlighted.
It is impossible to force out top figures like artists without paying a price.
"That's easy. Just tell me your home address, and I'll freeze you and take you there... I can also purify the smell at the same time." Cen Xiangyun snapped her fingers and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm not a bad person, it's okay to tell you the address!"
... If they had not just experienced a life-and-death battle together, even if it was a beautiful older sister who said this, Luo Ling would still want to confirm whether the other party was a pervert.
"Okay, thank you for your help." Luo Ling reluctantly agreed to Cen Xiangyun's suggestion and gave her the address. Then he thought of something and said, "By the way, if my sister wakes up..."
"Don't worry, I can definitely explain it to her. I'm very skilled at this." Cen Xiangyun patted her chest. "When I was an intern, I was just doing the finishing work! Aside from the times when I failed, I never made any mistakes!"
“… … .”
Why does it feel more and more unreliable the more I listen...
But Luo Ling could no longer hold on. She slowly closed her eyes, feeling a heavy sense of fatigue.
The vision fell into silence.
... ... .
At the same time, on the other side of the battlefield.
"Tsk tsk tsk, the art department is really useless. They can even fail in this." The scientist shook his head and said.
She and Li Shaoheng had been fighting for a while, but neither of them had any injuries on their bodies, and they hadn't even consumed much physical energy.
It's simple, because they all have killer moves against each other.
Once the killing move is made, it’s a matter of life or death.
The battle between "Backtracking" and "Space" is all a game of strategy.
Obviously, this kind of game is unlikely to produce any results, and this is what the scientist hopes for. She is just delaying the time for Li Shaoheng to go for support.
Li Shaoheng wanted to take this opportunity to try to kill the scientist.
But unfortunately, the other party was very cautious and never gave me a chance.
So, the real battleground... is on the other side.
The fight will not end until the other side decides the winner, or Li Shaoheng finds the scientist's mistake and successfully escapes.
Li Shaoheng has already notified the local awakening organization and believes that the battle on the other side will be reinforced in the near future.
The longer it drags on, the more disadvantageous it will be for the "Evil Heralds"; time is on their side.
But the artist was unexpectedly beaten back...
Li Shaoheng knew his niece very well. He could buy time, but there was no way he could defeat the artist.
Was it that new person who was an awakener on the weird side who did it
Li Shaoheng's eyes flickered slightly, as if he was thinking about something.
But no matter what, this encounter was their victory.
"It's boring. I don't want to play with you anymore," the scientist put on the cat mask again and said unhappily, "It's a good thing that I used a little "cost" to hold back the big boss, but in the end, this guy was overturned by the minions. What a loser."
"Leave something behind."
Li Shaoheng did not hesitate and seized the opportunity. Several flying blades suddenly appeared around the scientist and attacked him with a pincer attack that left no room for evasion.
"Oh."
The scientist just sneered and snapped his fingers.
In an instant, her figure slowly disappeared.
"Backtracking".
The flying blade missed.
But Li Shaoheng was not upset, as this was just an attempt that had no possibility of success.
The scientist is three places higher than the artist in the bounty ranking, not only because she has done more evil things, but also because... she is stronger and harder to kill.
The full extent of her abilities has yet to be seen, because due to the existence of "Backtracking", scientists rarely put themselves in danger, and what "The Company" has seen is just the tip of the iceberg.
At this moment, the cell phone in Li Shaoheng's arms vibrated slightly. He picked it up and took a look, and his mouth twitched.
It’s a message from the communication group.
but...
[Ancient Warrior: We have arrived at the scene, but the battle seems to be over and we did not see the target. ]
[Bing: Nonsense, we finished the fight before you came! ]
Chapter 77: Cause and Effect, Price (5k)
Liu Songyi, Shen Miaoyun, and Elsa rushed to the scene, but saw only a mess on the ground with traces of fierce fighting, but no one was seen.
After communicating with the "company" dispatch specialist in the communication group, I learned that they moved to another location after the battle.
It is hard to blame the people in the patient communication group for arriving too late. If it were not for Li Shaoheng's spatial ability, most of the people in the company would probably not be able to catch up with this battle.
Besides, the artist obviously didn't want to delay time, and this seemingly fierce battle only lasted two or three minutes from beginning to end.
It's just that... the traces left by the battle are very troublesome.
"This filthy, rotten flesh and blood is everywhere. Even if ordinary people can't see it, the stench is hard to bear."
Even criminal policeman Liu Songyi couldn't help but frown, not to mention Shen Miaoyun, who was always slacking off in the back. From the moment she arrived at the scene, she never let go of her hands covering her mouth and nose.
On the contrary, Elsa didn't react much, perhaps because she had experienced too many similar things.
"Shen Miaoyun, can you deal with this rotten flesh and blood?" Liu Songyi turned his head and asked.
Shen Miaoyun endured the stench, used some of her abilities, and shook her head.
"No, the state of these flesh and blood is not under the continuous influence of "ability". My ability does not work."
Compared to treating injuries, Shen Miaoyun's ability is better at dealing with persistent trauma caused by "abilities", such as toxins, transformation, etc.
Besides, these flesh and blood were actually already in a "dead" state, so Shen Miaoyun had no idea where to start.
"I see."
Liu Songyi sighed. It was really troublesome to deal with the situation.
This kind of thing cannot be dealt with casually. Who knows what kind of curse or power is contained in it? It is easy to lose your life if you come into contact with it rashly.
"Anyway, I'll go to the bureau first to apply to seal the scene, and then let the two specialists from the 'company' come and see how to deal with it." Liu Songyi quickly made up his mind. At this time, the identity of a criminal policeman is still very useful.
As for this thorny and troublesome matter, it is better to let professionals take action. After all, the "company" specialists are not here to help for free.
Elsa didn't speak a word from beginning to end. She couldn't speak. She just silently "looked" at the flesh and blood, as well as the surrounding environment.
I always feel a sense of inexplicable familiarity...
"Xiao Qian, let's go." After receiving Brother Liu's order to retreat, Shen Miaoyun immediately breathed a sigh of relief and quickly walked behind Elsa's wheelchair and backed away, mumbling, "It's so scary, luckily we didn't catch up..."
She is a nanny on the "all-soul" path. How can a nanny be sent to the front line? How much combat power can a nanny have
The main reason is that the group is really short of staff right now, and the new member "White Witch" is still on vacation, so she had no choice but to come along.
Elsa nodded. She came here as a backup.
Although her ability is powerful, it has great limitations, and she is only deployed because of a shortage of manpower.
Liu Songyi asked the two to go back to Qingshan Hospital on their own, then turned and walked towards the county town. He was the busiest person in the communication group. Now that Mr. Ji had been bedridden, all matters had to be handled by him.
After everyone left, this already deserted bus station seemed even colder.
but...
Not long after, a vague and slender figure slowly emerged from the space.
"It appears again..."
The soft whispering voice carried a hint of tiredness from waking up from a deep sleep.
“But it seems to have disappeared again.”
The graceful figure stepped firmly on the ground, and her bright eyes regained their clarity.
She felt the thick scent in the air and her expression became more serious.
"Why did it appear so quickly this time? In its current state, it should take at least three months to differentiate into a new 'egg'."
It happens every six months, and there has been no exception in the three years since it came to Jiangcheng County, except today which is special.
Ji Ying has stopped the "Puppet Rumor" from trying to recover countless times and strangled the birth of the "egg" several times, with only two exceptions, and both have been resolved.
"what happened?"
The beautiful figure squatted down and looked at the filthy and smelly flesh and blood on the ground.
She looked at it for a while, then stretched out her hand, picked up the meeting documents filled with the breath of "death", and slowly put them into her mouth.
She closed her eyes and chewed gently, as if she was tasting some delicious food, and the corners of her mouth gradually curled up.
“Is that so?”
"So that's how it is..."
"Sure enough, I was right. Only you can kill the puppet."
The bright moonlight cast a shadow, revealing a pretty and slightly heroic face, which was Ji Ying's face.
She was still chewing the flesh and savoring the memories within.
Over and over again.
"So amazing! Is this the owner of the "Kume Rumor" ability? Even I can't resist the temptation brought by the power of flesh and blood."
Ji Ying silently lowered her head and looked at her arms.
She once cut open her flesh to prove her human identity to Luo Ling.
But in fact, she only looked at Luo Ling for a moment, not a second longer.
because...
In the slowly opening wound and the constantly flowing blood, white mycelium was faintly visible, greedily gnawing at her flesh and blood, but was quickly devoured by the blood, barely maintaining the self called "Ji Ying".
This is her war with the "Puppet Rumor", in this body that can barely be called a human body.
"No matter what, we must kill the puppet rumor within this 'boundary' and completely destroy that desperate 'disorder'."
Ji Ying slowly closed her eyes and her figure gradually disappeared.
At the same time, in Qingshan Hospital.
Ji Shinian, who was lying on the hospital bed, suddenly started coughing violently. Qi Anyu, who was in charge of taking care of him, hurried over to support him, but found that the blood he coughed up had stained the bedding.
"Ah, this..."
An Yu was a little at a loss. She had not received any training, and the few first aid methods she knew were only those taught in school.
The caretaking is just a rotation, and now it happens to be Anyu's turn.
"It's okay, it's an old problem."
Ji Shinian waved his hand and took a breath, but his expression became more serious.
