Due to the limited space in the truck, only a portion of the familiars were able to ride on it. The rest of the familiars ran on the ground and in the sky.
Next to the road was a specially built monster tunnel. The King Eel Skeleton was running rampant in the monster tunnel, like a big train running amok. Any Familiar that saw it quickly ran away.
Smoke and dust billowed along the way. The special road made a loud rumbling sound, and the ground shook.
"What kind of monster is that?" The passersby saw the King Eel Skeleton gliding past them. Its bones made a crunching sound as it rubbed against the ground, creating a strong wind.
Following closely behind was a huge King Centipede Skeleton. Its densely packed legs made crunching sounds as it crawled on the ground. Her voice was crisp and pleasant to the ears, continuous and unending …
Back at the Southern Sky Group, the security guard at the entrance saw that it was the young master's car and quickly opened the door. A group of familiars and ghouls eagerly squeezed in.
When they arrived at the lake, a group of familiars happily camped on the lawn in front of the villa. Suddenly, the area became lively.
"Roar!" The lake roared in dissatisfaction. It was too noisy!
The air became quiet, and all the sounds disappeared.
The Primitive Jade Armored Crocodile, who was rolling in a puddle, froze in mid-air. Its tail and head were on the ground, and its waist was suspended in the air. Its two vertical pupils stared innocently into the distance. After a while, it sneaked back into the water and opened its mouth to dissipate the heat.
There was a special capacitive training device behind the lake. The Thunder Lord was quietly cultivating beside the device.
The blue lightning turned into liquid and covered the Thunder Lord's body. With the Thunder Lord as the center, there was not a single blade of grass.
When Grandpa came back at night, Gao Peng handed the Thunder God's Stone to him and instructed him on how to use it.
The Thunder Lord's evolution process was not complicated. It could even be said that it was very easy. It just needed to swallow the Thunder God's Stone and soak it in Yu Ling Water.
Ji Hanwu opened the jade box. There was a sixteen-sided transparent purple gemstone lying quietly in the box. There was a purplish-red scar in the center of the gemstone. If one did not look closely, they would not be able to tell that it was a scar.
His fingers slid across the surface of the gemstone. A numbing sensation spread from the gemstone to his fingertips.
Ji Hanwu narrowed his eyes, put the gem back, and nodded. "Alright, then I'll bring the White Dragon and the Thunder God to the Heavenly Lake. Take care of yourself at home."
"Be careful," Gao Peng said, even though he knew that the White Dragon's strength was unlikely to encounter any danger.
Ji Hanwu smiled and waved his hand. "Well, the Serpent King of Tianchi in Changbai Mountain has already established a sacrificial relationship with the local government. I'm just going to ask for some Spirit Healing Water. There won't be any danger."
Southern Sky's headquarters couldn't be left unguarded, so Gao Peng had to wait for his grandfather to come back before he could go to Changping Village. Of course, the main reason was that Gao Peng had been away for a while and was really tired. He wanted to rest in Yuzhou for a while before going out.
The next day, Grandpa brought the White Dragon and the Thunder Lord to the Changbai Mountains. Including the time needed to evolve, the round trip would take at least a week.
"Don't worry. When my grandfather comes back, I'll bring you to your birthplace," Gao Peng said to Flamy.
After some time, Flamy seemed to have forgotten about this matter. When she heard Gao Peng mention it again, Flamy stopped pecking the crane feathers. After a moment of silence, she continued pecking the crane feathers.
"Okay."
.....
Yuzhou City, Baiye District.
The black, unfinished building was filled with bits and pieces of trash. Three empty gasoline barrels were placed in the corner, and three dusty wooden planks were piled on top of them.
Back then, because the final payment couldn't keep up, this building had become an unfinished building. It had been left here without anyone managing it. Over time, it became a place for homeless people to live.
Rusty steel bars pierced through the cement walls like shriveled fingers. A few old wires were wrapped around the steel bars and made into a simple drying rack. A few tattered clothes, underwear, and socks hung on it.
Several thick layers of newspapers were pasted on the wall. The newspapers were slightly yellowed. On the far left was a poster of a cover girl. The cover girl's pose was sexy and seductive. The picture of her chest was torn open, revealing the bottom layer of the newspaper.
A figure was wrapped in a blanket against the wall. His hair was messy from the top of the blanket. It was unknown how long it had been since he last washed his hair.
It was still afternoon. The sun was high in the sky, but the unfinished building's environment had become dark and gloomy. A thin black fog filled the air …
"Achoo." The homeless man sleeping in the corner suddenly sneezed. He opened his eyes drowsily and wiped the mucus from the corner of his eyes.
Was the sun setting? He yawned. After the sun set, it was time for him to go out and rummage through his belongings.
He crawled out from under his blanket and felt around under his pillow. He pulled out a few polished coins and a few crumpled notes. He carefully put them into his trouser pocket. These were the only valuable things he had on him, so he had to carry them with him.
But why were the coins so cold? The homeless man frowned. He squatted down and touched the cement floor. The cold sensation made him shiver. The floor had never been so cold. Was there a leak somewhere?
Only then did he realize that something was wrong. He quickly ran out of the unfinished building.
Before he could take more than two steps, a black shadow flashed in front of him. The next moment, he lost consciousness.
"Chief, three homeless men died in the unfinished building," Han Rui, who was wearing a police uniform, reported to the chief with a document in his hand.
"Okay." The chief nodded and continued flipping through the document in his hand. It was just three homeless men. It wasn't worth his attention.
"The time of death of the three men was close. The bodies showed signs of stiffness. At the same time, the blood was coagulated. It seemed to have been frozen … but there were no electrical appliances in the unfinished building, and there was no sudden rain. We suspect that a familiar or monster committed the crime," Han Rui continued.
The chief stopped flipping through the document in his hand and frowned.
If it was a normal murder case, it wouldn't be a big deal. After all, they were homeless men. But when a familiar or monster was involved, it was a big case. This was also determined by the current situation.
"Go and investigate. Send out a task force …" The chief sighed.
The Baiye District had never been peaceful. It was an old district where good people mingled with bad people. There were people dying of unnatural causes every day. For a district with a population of hundreds of thousands, this was nothing out of the ordinary.
The Baiye District police station sealed off the entire unfinished building. At the same time, they sent out officers to investigate, but they found nothing.
Other than the three homeless men, there were no footprints on the ground. There were also no recent abnormal scratches on the surrounding walls.
