The rain had stopped, and the air was cold and humid. Sweat instantly appeared on Gao Qi's forehead.
A great sense of crisis, an unprecedented sense of crisis, made Gao Qi's soul tremble in an instant.
He didn't care about hiding his identity or his whereabouts anymore. His survival instinct made Gao Qi instantly pull out his pistol, turn around, and rush into the room where a woman was sitting.
"Don't go in!"
Huang Fei shouted at the top of his lungs. He got rid of Raymond and rushed toward Gao Qi.
Gao Qi had already entered the room.
Feeling that he was being watched, the hair on his neck stood up. Gao Qi pulled the curtain that covered the bed aside, and then he saw that the bed was still empty.
No, there must be something wrong.
Gao Qi's heart was occupied by a great panic, but he didn't know where the fear came from.
There was a back door in the room. Gao Qi calmed himself down, and then he gently opened the back door with his left hand. However, there was only a darker room behind the door. It was so dark that he couldn't see anything without a flashlight.
A faintly discernible stench hit his face. It smelled like a sewer, but the entire Fog City, no, to be exact, the entire civilian area of Fog City was shrouded in a similar stench. It was just that the stench here was stronger.
The great fear made Gao Qi continue to explore forward, but his rationality made Gao Qi immediately retreat.
Some people would turn around and run away when they encountered danger or something they were afraid of. This was not cowardice or cowardice. In fact, this was the instinct of humans and all animals, the instinct to stay away from danger.
However, some people, when faced with great fear, would search for the source of the fear and try to eliminate the source of the fear. This behavior was very rare, but it did exist, and it was usually called seeking death.
After struggling for a moment, Gao Qi still respected his rationality. He took a step back, and then he quickly backed away from the room.
When he took a step back, Gao Qi seemed to hear a faint sigh.
Gao Qi bumped into Huang Fei, who rushed in. Then Huang Fei directly grabbed Gao Qi's clothes and dragged him out of the door.
"Do you want to die?!"
Huang Fei was furious, but Gao Qi whispered anxiously, "He's nearby. He's watching us from near this room. I can feel him …"
Huang Fei pulled Gao Qi behind him, and then he whispered in Gao Qi's ear, "Thousand Face was standing behind you just now. He pushed you in... Can't you feel it at all?"
Goosebumps rose instantly. Gao Qi said in horror, "W-W-What did you say?"
Huang Fei's face was solemn. He looked at the dim room and whispered, "Thousand Face was standing behind you. He put his hand on your shoulder and pushed you into the room. I told you not to go in. Didn't you hear me?"
Gao Qi looked at Huang Fei in shock and said, "I didn't hear anything. I didn't hear anything. I just felt that I should go in …"
Huang Fei said in surprise, "He can even interfere with people's thoughts? Is he that powerful? "
At this moment, Raymond couldn't help but say, "Should we call for backup? Call for backup? Okay, call for backup … "
Huang Fei nodded, but Gao Qi felt that something was wrong. He immediately whispered, "No, don't call for backup!"
Gao Qi grabbed Raymond's clothes and whispered, "You absolutely can't call for backup. You absolutely can't let anyone come for backup, especially those with guns!"
"Why? Why?"
Gao Qi gritted his teeth and said, "Because all of us will be affected by his mind. All of our senses, vision, hearing, and even our sense of touch will be affected. If a large group of people come, do you think they'll shoot at Thousand Face or us?"
Huang Fei suddenly understood. Then he immediately said, "Yes, we can't call for backup. We also have to make sure that your people absolutely can't come over."
Gao Qi continued, "Thousand Face can't understand what we're saying. That's our only advantage. All we have to do is find him. It's not difficult to kill him. The difficult part is finding him. And now, only … the emperor can find him. So, the three of us are enough. It's useless to have more people."
Scanning the narrow alley, Huang Fei sighed softly and said, "How did we find him so accurately? The two of you, stay closer to me."
"How did you find him?" Raymond asked, trembling with fear.
As bounty hunters, their real names and backgrounds had to be kept a secret. Of course, their abilities had to be kept a secret.
Gao Qi and Huang Fei tacitly ignored Raymond. After looking at each other, the two of them nodded and stepped into the dim hut together.
"Shoot when I pat you. Shoot wherever I point!"
"Understood."
Huang Fei's right hand rested on Gao Qi's left shoulder. The two of them carefully walked through the back door. It was still dark behind the door, but Huang Fei looked around and whispered, "It's safe."
From this moment onwards, Gao Qi knew that his vision, hearing, and touch were no longer reliable under the interference of the Thousand-faced Man. There was nothing in front of him, but it was possible that he was about to fall into the Thousand-faced Man's arms.
Now, it was obvious that the codename Thousand Face was not accurate. He should be called Master of Illusions.
Huang Fei put his hand on another door. After pushing open the second door, his eyes suddenly lit up.
The stench seemed to have gotten stronger, but Huang Fei was stunned for a moment before he turned his head. After making two muffled sounds, his body tilted and he vomited.
Gao Qi was stunned and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Damn, corpses, so many corpses …"
Huang Fei did not dare to look anymore. It was not that he was afraid of corpses, but that he felt disgusted. However, Gao Qi looked into a small yard, but there was nothing.
Raymond also stuck his head out from behind and said, "There's nothing?"
Huang Fei said with difficulty, "Our abilities can't affect each other, but he can affect you. He's not far away. He's nearby."
"Keep looking!"
After Gao Qi whispered, Huang Fei shook his head and said, "No, no, I don't want to go forward …"
Before Huang Fei could finish, Gao Qi felt the scene in front of him change. Then, he saw the corpses in the yard.
There were layers upon layers of corpses. Some were rotten, some were half-rotten, and some were just born.
When he saw the corpses, the stench hit him.
It was really not a good thing that his senses had returned to normal. Gao Qi immediately turned his head. Then, without any warning or bending over, he directly spat out his lunch.
The scene was too impactful. Raymond only took one look before he immediately stumbled two steps back and said in a trembling voice, "Oh my god!"
Gao Qi and Huang Fei supported each other as they retreated. Then, Gao Qi said in a trembling voice, "This mission has become shocking and terrifying …"
Huang Fei panted and said, "It's also very disgusting."
