Someone had entered the alley and disappeared, which further confirmed Lan Mu's hypothesis. The anomalies were hidden in a space that he couldn't touch, and the people who disappeared must have entered that space.
"Two people? Are they the anomalies' owners? Are they holding each other hostage? Or something else? "Lan Mu asked.
Luo Yan confidently replied: "They aren't, the two of them are very harmonious, but they both have an unwilling expression on their faces"
Lan Mu was surprised. In this situation, either the two of them were being coerced by the anomaly, or they were being coerced by the anomaly's owner who hadn't shown up yet.
"Was it because you saw this that you were suddenly attacked by a ghost?"
Luo Yan recalled: "Yes, its first step was to modify my memories, then attempt to take over my body. But sir, you arrived in time, so it didn't succeed"
Lan Mu nodded. It wasn't hard to imagine that either the anomaly or the owner behind the scenes wanted to possess Luo Yan. Their goal wasn't clear, but they didn't know that Luo Yan had a soul contract with him, so he could know Luo Yan's mental state at any time.
"Continue to stand guard here, I'll keep an eye on you, I want to see if the other party dares to touch you!"
Lan Mu continued: "Since someone went in, someone will naturally come out. As soon as you notice anything, inform me immediately … Hm, the fastest way is to directly curse me in your mind"
Calling him would take too long. It was only because the ghosts wanted to possess him that Lan Mu was able to save him in time. If they wanted to instantly kill Luo Yan, he probably wouldn't be able to make it in time.
If a soul slave cursed his master, he would immediately sense it.
Lan Mu left Luo Yan behind again and went to patrol Wraith City. Of course, the ghosts had already calmed down quite a bit, not a single one dared to show themselves today.
He didn't stray too far away from Luo Yan, even occasionally transforming into his Vampire form to make it easier for him to return.
The day passed peacefully, without a single person dying inexplicably in Wraith City.
This continued until the next morning, when Lan Mu found some time to find a few hidden ghosts to devour, he finally received Luo Yan's notice at 8 AM.
"Sha!"
Lan Mu immediately switched to his main consciousness and left a clone at Luo Yan's place.
Seeing that Luo Yan was fine, he only had a shocked expression.
"What happened?"
Luo Yan pointed to the alley in amazement and said, "My lord, do you see a black building?"
Lan Mu was startled. This was a small district. How could there be a black building?
"How did you see it?"
Luo Yan pointed to the ground and said, "My shadow went in …"
"Shadow?" Lan Mu noticed that Luo Yan did not have a shadow. If not for the Soul Contract, he would have thought that Luo Yan had already turned into a ghost.
Lan Mu was shocked. "Your shadow entered that crevice? You can see a nonexistent black building? "
Lan Mu confirmed that this was not an illusion because he did not sense any ghosts around him.
Luo Yan said, "My lord, I can see a black building at the end of the alley. As long as I step into that door, I should be able to enter the place that you have been unable to find."
He looked at Lan Mu, only to see Lan Mu pondering for a moment, then immediately sent out another forty bats to hide on Luo Yan's body, making his clothes bloated.
"Go in! Just like those people before, if I can, I will go in as well. "
Lan Mu made up his mind to let Luo Yan go in. Otherwise, there was no point in staying outside. He wanted to see what the anomaly was doing by letting Luo Yan in.
He watched as Luo Yan approached the dead end step by step. At the end of the alley were scattered bricks and stones, because the wall was destroyed by Lan Mu.
As soon as Luo Yan stepped into the wall, his entire body disappeared.
At the same time, the forty bats were also ejected and flew around the alley.
"Sure enough, it didn't work."
Lan Mu knew that since he couldn't see the building, the bats naturally couldn't enter, so the alley was completely normal for him.
He didn't know what Luo Yan's situation was inside, but the Soul Contract didn't give him any abnormalities.
The wait was very long, even in the afternoon, when Ma Xiaoou, Kayama, Lingqi, and the others arrived, he still didn't see Luo Yan come out.
At this point, he couldn't help but regret that he didn't make a Void Substance and let Luo Yan bring it inside.
He was afraid that the anomaly would turn Shambhala into a wraith farm, so he wanted to check the situation first. But now it seems that it would be better to just rush in.
Of course, even if he thought that, he still waited patiently.
"Harbin is already a Ghost City, the Evil Thoughts you sensed are all Wraiths, be careful, if you catch them, then destroy them!"
Patrolling the Ghost City was left to his subordinates and brothers, while Lan Mu stayed at the entrance of the alley to deal with the anomaly.
At eight o 'clock in the evening, Lan Mu suddenly noticed a strange change.
It was clearly a normal street, but at some point, it had become dead silent.
Everyone went back to their homes, no one was wandering around the neighborhood.
It was only 8 PM! This was definitely abnormal.
"I didn't sense any traces of an illusion, an illusion can't cover the entire world." Lan Mu's mind switched between his clones without any hindrance, which meant that he wasn't affected by the illusion ability.
But just in case, he still turned into the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox, in terms of illusion resistance, the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox was the least likely to be affected by illusions.
"If it's not fake, then all the passersby went home to sleep at 8 PM? Is this thought manipulation? Or thought manipulation? Either way, it's an inexplicable ability. "
Lan Mu stood on the side of the road, coldly staring at the alley.
Sure enough, a group of people came out, a total of 8 men and women.
"There's no Luo Yan!"
Lan Mu suspiciously walked over, intending to interrogate them.
Who would've thought that when they saw Lan Mu, they would act like they saw a ghost, their faces filled with fear.
Are you kidding me, is there anyone more beautiful than the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox in this world? And why are they acting like they're scared to death?
The leader of the group shouted: "Split up and run!"
So the 8 of them split into 2 groups, each running towards the left and right of the street.
"Tch!"
Lan Mu curled his finger, charmed the 4 people on the left, then jumped in front of the 4 on the right.
"Stop running, I don't have time to play hide-and-seek with you …"
Lan Mu found that these 8 people were all normal people, nothing special about them.
He asked: "Did you see him?"
Luo Yan's appearance appeared in the 4 people's minds, they obviously have seen him before, but each of them looked terrified, muttering: "Ghost! Ghost … "
Lan Mu frowned, why are these people so difficult to communicate with?
They ran as soon as they saw him, and after being stopped, they looked like they were dead.
"I'm not a ghost …"
The 4 people didn't believe him, seeing their 4 companions walking over with infatuated faces, they were obviously charmed.
They thought to themselves: Isn't this a ghost! The four of them were possessed by the devil.
Lan Mu ignored them, simply increased his charm, and questioned the other 4 people.
The Nine-Tailed's charm ability is not what it used to be, it's no different from being possessed by a ghost to ordinary people.
After several questions, the 4 people told him a lot of information.
The other 4 people rolled their eyes and took the opportunity to escape.
But at this moment, a black shadow flashed, and one of them disappeared in an instant.
The rest of the people shouted and ran faster. Lan Mu raised his eyebrows, in that instant a ghost made a move, directly grabbing people into an unknown space.
Needless to say, if a normal person was caught into a different space by a ghost, there was almost no chance of survival, they would definitely die.
"This ghost's ability is even more strange, the ability to directly pull people into an unknown space, even I can't crack it."
Lan Mu listened to the description of the 4 people who were charmed, and finally understood why these people ran away when they saw him.
"Black Tower … instructions …"
This group of people was like Luo Yan, when they passed here, their shadows were sucked in, and then they saw the black tower in the crevice of the space.
People can't live without shadows, right? Almost everyone chose to enter that building, and thus became the black tower's toys.
This group of people had to live in the black tower most of the week, and they only had 24 hours of vacation each week to leave the black tower. As for whether they could rest separately or together during these 24 hours, it was up to them.
But once this iron rule was violated, this group of unlucky people would be obliterated, dying in all kinds of strange ways.
Of course, the purpose of the black tower was not to attract residents, but to play with them.
In addition to vacation, there was another way to leave the black tower. That was, every once in a while, a group of people would receive instructions, which were words floating in the air in front of them, telling them to leave the black tower and go to various haunted places to live, or do some suicidal things.
Who didn't know that ghosts really existed in the world when they entered the black tower? What was the difference between going to a haunted place and committing suicide?
But there was no other way, if they disobeyed the instructions, they might have a chance of survival.
This time, the 8 people received instructions, and the content was particularly strange.
"The first thing you see outside the black tower is a ghost, escape its pursuit, and you can return to the black tower in 20 minutes."
There was no real safe place in Harbin, hundreds of ghosts lurking everywhere, perhaps the safest place was the black tower, at least in the black tower, no ghosts had ever appeared.
"The first thing you see is a ghost? So you ran as soon as you saw me? Tch, you still have the mind to use me? "
