"So fast! It's far faster than before!
Once we get the Box of Resentment, this guy's attitude will change from 'driving us away' to 'hunting us down'? "
Shinichi and the others directly descended to the first floor through the elevator used for dining. Considering that the mysterious man had just stepped onto the top floor of the third floor of the mansion, they thought they would be at a safe distance.
Suddenly, they felt a terrifying gaze coming from behind them.
The mysterious man, who had been searching the mansion at a normal speed,
As the three of them left the mansion with the box, it meant that the game had entered the final stage. The overall rhythm had completely changed. The mysterious man was no longer strolling.
In just a few seconds.
His large leather shoes had already stepped on the door.
The black miasma in the whole area became dense and even "activated". It formed many black arms on the street, blocking everyone's path.
"Dong Ye! Remove 50% of the restriction and let Forbidden Words sit on your body. Next, just run. I'll do my best to control the wind to increase our movement speed and hinder this guy's pursuit. "
"Okay, Boss."
Dong Ye tore his skin again, but this time, he put the copper coins in his pocket. Once they escaped, he would need to recover.
Of the sixteen arms, one of them grabbed Forbidden Words while the rest were used to crawl. Their speed was comparable to Shinichi's full speed flight.
"Right! If we're caught, can my restriction be removed further? "
"No matter what situation we're in, it can't be more than 80%. If it goes any higher, you'll completely lose control, and we'll all die in the game."
"Okay, Boss!
According to the rules of this game, as long as one of us escapes the street with the box, it'll be fine. If we're really caught, Boss, just keep running. I'll stop him. "
"Let's try to escape together!"
The wind controlled by Shinichi was divided into two.
The wind at the front helped them to rush forward, while the wind at the back restricted the mysterious man's pursuit. It could also capture the mysterious man's position in real time.
Shinichi thought that this would be an effective escape method, but the reality made him frown.
The wind's obstruction was nothing to the mysterious man. His leather shoes moved faster than them. Sooner or later, he would catch up.
Moreover, the street was full of black arms formed by miasma.
At the same time, various evil spirits floated out, trying to stop him.
There were even some powerful assassin teams hiding in the dark, trying to fight for the Box of Resentment.
"Dong Ye, Limit Removal -65%! Anyone who dares to block our path will be eliminated!"
"Alright."
The black silk cloth and iron nails that sealed the eye sockets fell off.
The Black Hole Eye revealed the true body of the Forbidden Demon.
Weng!
A death ray with destructive properties and black spots shot out from the eye sockets.
All the evil spirits that were swept by the death ray died one after another, and the arms formed by the black miasma were all destroyed.
Many assassins who were hiding in the dark decisively gave up on their plans to rob Dong Ye when they saw his appearance and the terrifying Death Ray attack.
After all, they had found some treasures during their exploration of the haunted house. According to the content of the event, as long as one of them won, they would be considered to have cleared the scenario and they would be rewarded accordingly.
After weighing the pros and cons, most of them gave up on the idea of intercepting him halfway.
At the same time.
Since Dong Ye's limit had been lifted to 65%, his scent was picked up by an assassin who came to participate in the event alone. The event that had always been boring seemed to have become interesting.
…
Escaping for his life was not that simple.
Even though Dong Ye's restrictions had been lifted and the path ahead was unobstructed, the difference in speed meant that he would still be overtaken.
"I'll stop you!"
Shinushi flipped his body and flew backwards. Although his speed was reduced, it didn't affect him much.
* Drip! *
Dark red blood dripped onto the ground.
Shinushi actually reluctantly pulled out a few feathers and prepared to cast a powerful sacrificial spell.
The black feathers that he pulled out transformed into sharp arrows that floated in front of him. Tengu's spell power even flowed on the surface of the arrows.
* Whoosh! *
Shinushi opened up his fan and waved it with all his might.
A hurricane strong enough to uproot an electric pole instantly formed on the street. The hurricane carried the black feathers and headed straight for the mysterious person chasing after him.
Along the way, the hurricane destroyed the public facilities and the outer walls of the mansion. Several black feathers seemed to form a Tengu with its fangs bared.
The hurricane scattered the black miasma everywhere it touched.
"Let's see how you're going to take this!"
Shinushi was extremely confident in his technique. He widened his eyes and waited for the hurricane and feathers to come into contact with the mysterious person.
At the moment of collision, the black miasma covering the mysterious person's upper body was scattered by the hurricane.
He was wearing a black leather jacket and a wooden shirt. The top of the collar corresponded to a bald head wearing sunglasses.
If one observed from behind, they would also discover a "bar code" imprinted on the back of the mysterious person's head, as well as some sort of complicated mechanical port.
Something inconceivable happened.
The black feathers that carried Tengu's might should have been able to pierce through all matter. However, they sank and disappeared the moment they hit the mysterious person.
It was as if they had hit a ball of sticky liquid. Only a few large ripples appeared before the black feathers completely sank into the liquid.
This attack only caused the mysterious person to pause for about two seconds.
"How is this possible!?"
Shinushi was astonished by what just happened. A sense of fear filled his entire body. He completely abandoned any thoughts of resistance and only wanted to escape.
"Still, these two seconds should be enough for us to reach the end of the street … as long as nothing unexpected happens, we should be able to make it in time!"
Just as Shinushi said this, he suddenly noticed that something was off.
Or perhaps, he should have noticed the abnormality several seconds ago. However, due to the attack just now and the abnormal situation … he missed the best opportunity to deal with this situation.
The box hidden in Shinushi's sleeve had obviously become heavier, and there was also something strange about it.
When Shinushi looked at his sleeve, he saw that there was a large wriggling mass of living matter within it.
When he hurriedly took out the box, a gigantic mass of flesh appeared in his sleeve. There was even an exaggerated eye on the surface of the flesh.
"This is! Nicholas did something to it! "
Shinushi immediately thought of Han Dong's ability to multiply zombies.
The viral mass of flesh stored within the box had been completely activated. It was endlessly absorbing the resentment generated by the box and growing at an indescribably rapid rate … in fact, the mass of flesh even gained self-awareness due to the resentment.
* Whoosh! *
A flesh spike suddenly appeared. Shinushi was unable to react in time at such a close distance, and his cheek was sliced open … The mass of flesh took this opportunity to break free and jump forward.
* Splat! *
The mass of flesh just happened to land on the corpses scattered on the street, fused, and multiplied!
Under the effect of the [Fusion of Resentment], the mass of flesh actually completely blocked off the street and transformed into a mass of flesh monster filled with endless resentment … the box was hidden somewhere within the mass of flesh.
"Oh no!"
It was precisely because of this sudden situation and the team's pause that this chase ended prematurely.
The tremendous pressure made it difficult for Shinushi to breathe. The sound of leather shoes had already stopped behind them …
'Why!? Why!? We were only one hundred meters away from leaving the street, so why did something like this happen? '
Right now, they only had one way to survive: "Give up on the box, escape to a nearby villa, and wait for the mysterious person to take the box from the mass of flesh."
If they chose to do this, they would have to start all over again.
Right at this moment.
A familiar smell of blood wafted over from afar … and they could even faintly hear dogs barking.
