“?? What's that sound?! "
Luo Di suddenly paused. The water bottle that he was about to drink hovered by his lips. His ears twitched slightly as he focused on the faint sound coming from outside.
"I think something shook," Esseinro answered hesitantly.
The two of them stood by the window and looked out. There was nothing outside the building. It was quiet around them.
"Could it be inside the building?" Luo Di was slightly worried about his son, Luo Sang. Although Luo Sang was powerful, he was not familiar with this town. He was not as familiar with the weaknesses of the various monsters as he was. If they encountered the most troublesome Executioner …
Moreover, it was a strengthened Executioner in this town …
Luo Di's heart suddenly tightened.
"Shall we go take a look?" Esseinro suggested.
Luo Di was silent for a while. "I'll go. Stay here and don't make a sound. Remember to use this. "He produced a small bottle of medicine from his pocket and passed it to Esseinro.
"No need. I have this." Esseinro smiled. He extended his right hand. A black pattern was clearly drawn on the back of his hand with something.
"Anti-Sela Mark?" Luo Di was stunned. Sela was the enemy of the True Xiong Sect that Esseinro worshipped. She was a legendary great devil. Since this mark was an Anti-Sela Mark, it represented holiness.
"Then, I wish you good luck." Luo Di instantly understood what he meant.
The mark was actually just a psychological comfort. Esseinro had his own preparations. He did not need Luo Di's help. That was the most important thing.
"I'll be going, then." Luo Di drew his crossbow. He covered himself with his cloak and hood, opened the door, and dashed out.
Esseinro stood by the window and watched him leave. He looked around the empty room, and a faint sense of regret suddenly rose in his heart.
"I'm useful too …" He forced himself to squat down. He produced a piece of red chalk from his pocket and started drawing on the ground.
…
"Clang!"
Lu Sheng's blade collided with the Executioner's chains. Both of them were about the same size. Lu Sheng was slightly more muscular, while the Executioner was slightly taller.
However, they seemed to be evenly matched in terms of strength.
Lu Sheng could clearly feel endless power surging out of the Executioner's body. This brute force was increasing as he increased his strength.
"It can actually keep up with my blade speed. I'm getting more and more interested in this place … "He did not expect a monster to be able to keep up with him even after he had leveled up to this level.
"Thornt Stab." With a flick of his hand, the blade slid open and pierced through a gap in the chains. It accurately pierced through the gap in the armor around the neck of the executioner.
Puchi.
The sound of a blade piercing into flesh could be heard.
With a swoosh, the Executioner vanished on the spot.
Lu Sheng was taken aback. Before he could react, he felt a huge force crashing down on him from behind.
Bang!!
He elbowed the chain behind him. The Executioner had appeared behind him out of nowhere and was swinging the chain at him.
Before he could retaliate, the Executioner's other chain shot out from another direction and wrapped around his waist.
Huala!
The chain was instantly pulled taut by a huge force, as if it wanted to pull Lu Sheng off balance.
Bang!!
Lu Sheng was pulled and sent flying. He crashed into a door on the side. The door's wood shattered. Black smoke spread from inside. A durian tentacle monster scuttled out in panic. It disappeared into the black smoke in the blink of an eye.
"Not bad …" Amidst the dust-filled smoke, Lu Sheng got up slowly. "Not bad … Looks like …"
Bam!!
Another chain shot out from the darkness and struck the side of his waist.
As if struck by lightning, Lu Sheng flew diagonally and crashed through the wall. He fell into the next room.
The Executioner chased after him, dragging the chain behind it. It had just reached the broken wall. An arm that was almost as thick as its head suddenly shot out from the darkness and grabbed its head.
Bam!!
The Executioner's body staggered forward. It was pulled by a huge force and crashed into the edge of the broken wall.
Rubble and mud fell and scattered all over the ground.
Amidst the billowing smoke and dust, the smoke gradually dispersed. A huge figure that was more than five meters tall and three meters wide was revealed.
"Since I can't deal with it in my normal form, I'll just release 1% …" Within the smoke, Lu Sheng's hideous face that was filled with twisted muscles appeared. There was a hint of cruelty in his cold eyes.
Right now, his body was filled with muscles like tumors. It was similar to when he was in Great Song.
However, the only difference was that a flesh-colored tube had grown out of his back at some point. It connected his back to the back of his head. It was very thick.
"I heard that the monsters here can't die. Let me see if they really can't die …" Lu Sheng grabbed the Executioner with one hand. He lifted it high and suspended it in the air.
"Bam, bam, bam, bam!"
The Executioner desperately used its arms and chains to hit the huge hand that was holding it. However, it was useless. Lu Sheng's strength was too terrifying after he released his power. The two of them were on completely different levels in terms of size.
Grabbing the Executioner's torso with one hand and its head with the other, Lu Sheng exerted force.
"Pop."
Streams of blood spurted out. The Executioner's head was forcibly removed from its torso.
Large amounts of blood spurted on the walls and floor.
As the blood spurted out, Lu Sheng clearly felt the Executioner's weight in his hand rapidly lightening.
'So, is this blood the key?' Lu Sheng seemed to have understood something.
Soon, he realized that the Executioner's corpse in his hand was starting to evaporate. It turned into puddles of black water and disappeared.
Now that there were no enemies around him, he slowly shrunk his body and returned to his normal form. To be exact, this form was actually a special form that he compressed and suppressed using the secret skill of Yin Extreme Mode. Compared to his true physical strength, this form was much, much weaker.
He walked over and squatted down to examine the black water that the Executioner had turned into. The black water was also rapidly fading away.
"Forget it. I'll study it later. I'll continue sweeping the other places first." After coming back to his senses, Lu Sheng got up and continued walking down. Soon, he had cleaned up the entire building.
"How is it?" Luo Di had also come down at this moment. He had hurried over when he heard the commotion just now, but he was still a step too late.
"Were you fighting some monster?" Luo Di examined Lu Sheng closely and noticed that his clothes were torn. Apart from a loose cloak, he had no other clothes on him.
"No. I encountered a big fatty just now, and I took care of him in passing," Lu Sheng said with a smile.
"Speaking of which, where's the female monster that you dragged down just now?" Luo Di looked around. Finally, he saw the female monster behind Lu Sheng. She was tied up, and one of her legs had already been dragged away.
Luo Di could not bear to look anymore. He turned to look at Lu Sheng.
"Take a rest after you're done. We'll look for wood together later. We don't have much time. We have to hurry. "
"Alright." Lu Sheng nodded. Of course, he could not possibly follow Luo Di to look for wood. His purpose for coming here was to take drastic measures and completely destroy this town.
"How about this, Dad? You stay here with old man Esseinro. He's injured and needs someone to take care of him. I'll go look for wood. I'll bring it back after a few trips. It'll be slower if we move together, "Lu Sheng suggested.
"But …" Luo Di wanted to say something else, but Lu Sheng raised his hand and stopped him.
"It's decided. I can see that you're tired, Dad. I'll go." Lu Sheng smiled. "Also …"
Before he could finish, the two of them heard a series of light footsteps. It seemed like a few people were walking in from the entrance of the building.
"Shh … softer …" someone whispered.
Lu Sheng and Luo Di were standing at the corner of the staircase on the first floor. They heard it clearly.
"That voice … Fran?" Luo Di was instantly overjoyed. He grabbed Lu Sheng, who was about to speak. He turned to the side quietly and looked out from the staircase.
In the darkness, a few familiar figures were slowly walking into the hall of the building under the moonlight. The last one to enter was the tall and muscular Mera.
Luo Di was too familiar with Mera. He only needed to see the outline of her body to recognize her immediately.
"Why are they here? This … isn't a place anyone can enter. "Luo Di immediately thought about it and understood. They must have been forced here by the flood earlier.
"It's them." Lu Sheng recognized Mera and the others as well.
"Mera?" Luo Di was the first to walk out and call out.
"Luo Di? You're here too?! " Mera did not speak, but Fran was the first to cry out in surprise. She quickly pounced and tried to lean into Luo Di's embrace. Then, he immediately pushed her away.
"Luo Di, Luo Sang …" Mera was the first to see Lu Sheng behind them. Her expression froze.
"Then, Father, you guys catch up. I'll go and move the wood." Lu Sheng did not have time to waste on idle chatter. After he mentioned this and received Luo Di's permission, he quickly walked out of the building.
He could vaguely hear the voices of a few people behind the door. Lu Sheng quickened his pace. Ever since he killed the Executioner, he vaguely sensed that this town seemed to have undergone some strange changes.
There seemed to be something rolling in the fog. It was as if someone was watching him.
As he walked on the deserted street, a tall and muscular black figure draped in a cloak suddenly walked out slowly from an alley on his right.
"Hm?"
Lu Sheng looked up and sized him up carefully.
The figure moved very slowly. He swayed and swayed, and his body was very heavy. If Lu Sheng had not stopped and waited for him, he might still be moving slowly behind him.
"Hiss … Hiss …"
With a whoosh, his cloak opened up. A strange monster that was formed from three greenish-purple corpses that looked like vines appeared before Lu Sheng.
"Whoosh!"
The monster's three-meter-tall body pounced toward Lu Sheng.
…
A minute later.
Lu Sheng tightened his cloak, tossed aside the tattered clothes he had changed out of, and continued forward.
The further he walked on the dark streets, the thicker the fog became. The sound of footsteps echoed on the empty street.
Lu Sheng planned to take a tour around this place first.
With his speed, it only took him a dozen minutes to completely go around a small town.
There were a total of twenty-one buildings in the town. One school, one church, two shops, and a warehouse. The rest were residential buildings.
Lu Sheng walked around the church, but did not find anything out of the ordinary. Then, he went to the shops. Strangely, he did not find anything out of the ordinary either.
He looked around the residential buildings casually. He only encountered a few existences similar to that shameless woman from before. After that, he did not find anything else.
This took less than twenty minutes. When Lu Sheng returned, Lu Sheng found a dozen or so large logs, tied them up, and dragged them back.
In the small building of the school, Lu Sheng threw the logs to the first floor. Immediately, he heard someone coming down from upstairs.
Just as he was about to go up to help, he suddenly saw from the corner of his eyes that there seemed to be a faint flicker of light in a dark classroom in the depths of the corridor on the first floor.
He squinted his eyes and walked over slowly and silently.
Walking to the classroom window, he saw a lonely little boy in the classroom. The boy's back was facing him, and he was watching a black and white television in the classroom.
The television was playing a blurry black and white program. He did not know what the content was, but he could see a shadow moving around.
The little boy had a head of thick black hair. He sat on a stool and seemed to be very focused.
