Chapter 27 27 Shadow Demon Appears
Chapter 27 27. The Shadow Demon Appears
Xu Yanrui was like a third party, witnessing the coming of the end of the world. A strange dry arm suddenly appeared and chased her everywhere...
She saw herself hiding in the utility room, using the dry arm to deceive the invading monster, and then carefully walked through the blood-filled community and came to the door of the apartment building.
But the door was closed at this time, so she could only keep asking for help outside the door, and finally attracted the monster.
The monster's dark and dry arm broke open her chest and ate the liver and flesh inside bit by bit.
Looking at herself lying in a pool of blood, dying with eyes wide open, Xu Yanrui's face turned pale, and a sense of weirdness arose in her heart, but more of horror and fear.
Suddenly the blood mist twisted and dissipated, the monster's chewing sound gradually faded away, the page of the future was closed, and she returned to the present.
The convenience store was brightly lit, clean and tidy. Looking out the door, the night was hazy, not very beautiful, but it was much more comfortable than pure darkness.
"Are you ready to die?"
The voice of the mysterious black-robed man echoed in her ears again, but the woman was not too scared this time. She looked around the empty convenience store and shouted, "What do you want to do?"
"Me?"
The figure of the black-robed man gradually appeared, "You should ask yourself this question?"
"Do you want to live, or die like a weed?"
Xu Yanrui clenched her fists, and her rosy skin was pinched to lose its blood color. Even though she was very nervous, she still asked, "Who are you?"
The figure of the mysterious black-robed man flickered, and Su Hong inexplicably remembered the mysterious shadow imprisoned in Wang Chengzhi's body.
"You can call me the Night Watchman, the shadow demon of the seventh place in the Night Watch, and the guide of the new generation of fire bearers."
"Night Watchman? Shadow Demon?" Xu Yanrui was a little confused.
He said lightly: "The end of the world is coming, and after the sun goes out, the flame will eventually die."
"I have awakened from the ancient past and handed the last flame to you. Are you ready?"
"Why me?" Xu Yanrui asked in confusion.
She is just an ordinary shop owner, what qualifications do she have to take over this flame.
Su Hong laughed hoarsely, "Haha... As an undead who can survive in the new era, you are certainly qualified."
He put the long object covered by the black cloth on the cash register, "You will make a choice."
Su Hong's voice gradually faded. Xu Yanrui just stretched out her arm, and everything around her seemed to fade like an oil painting. Her eyes flickered and she found herself standing blankly at the back door of the shop.
Looking at the palm of her hand, there was a five-dollar bill in it.
It seemed to remind her that what happened just now was not a dream.
"Where is the black cloth?" Xu Yanrui hurriedly looked around. The mysterious object covered by the black cloth lay quietly on the ground. This was the gift given to her by the shadow demon.
Xu Yanrui recalled what happened just now. She vaguely guessed what was inside, and her body suddenly froze in place.
Xu Yanrui knew very well that as long as she took a step, she would be involved in a mysterious vortex from then on and would never be able to return to her current peaceful life.
But even if she didn't make a choice, would life be as she wished?
"In fact, I have no choice at all. In this case... it's better to hold on to my thighs first."
...
Su Hong returned home and made instant noodles.
This bucket of instant noodles was his dinner today. After a simple meal, he would go to the spectral station for simulation.
If he could reach a cooperation with Li Jian before Li Jian was injured by Zhou Hong, Zhou Hong might not be their opponent.
He also had to intercept the disaster item that could use soul whipping in advance.
Wang Chengzhi was his next target to be pulled into the Fire Spreader. If he could release his potential, he would become his powerful helper whether in simulation or in reality.
After eating instant noodles, Su Hong packed up his things and was about to go out when the apocalypse simulation game suddenly popped up a reminder.
"The undead Xu Yanrui has agreed to your invitation to form a team and has joined the Firebringer camp."
"You can view her information on the camp interface."
Su Hong clicked on the newly appeared camp interface. The mysterious black-robed man was hidden in the darkness, and only the outline of his body could be vaguely seen. He held his hands forward, and the hot flames he held attracted Su Hong's attention.
Xu Yanrui's information popped up.
[Xu Yanrui]
[Camp: Firebringer]
[Disaster Level: 1]
[Disaster Item: Corpse Ghost Left Hand]
Xu Yanrui's acceptance of the disaster ability was within Su Hong's expectations. After studying the camp interface, he went downstairs with a black bag on his back and walked out of the community.
Before leaving, he deliberately looked at Yijia Convenience Store - it was not too late, but the convenience store closed early.
Su Hong did not choose to continue to disturb Xu Yanrui, intending to give her some space to adapt, and it would not be too late to go after the simulation was over.
He took a taxi and got off near the entrance of the subway station more than ten minutes later.
You have to go through security check to enter the subway station. The black bag on his back contains armor, machetes and other items. If they are found, he will have trouble explaining.
He found a toilet in the mall next door and changed his equipment in advance. The blood-stained LOGO of [Apocalypse Simulator] slowly emerged.
"Start simulation."
"The current disaster potential is 16/5. The disaster potential will increase as you are exposed to the disaster for a longer time. Do you want to consume 1 point of disaster potential to start the simulation?"
"Yes."
"Simulation starts. Good luck."
The lights in the toilet began to flicker and people came in and out. In a few seconds, Su Hong felt like he had spent a long time.
When time gradually slowed down, he returned to reality.
"Ah!"
Screams rang out in the mall. Su Hong ignored the confused eyes of the men, walked out of the toilet and walked straight out.
He had to get into the subway station before Li Jian was seriously injured. As for the survivors in the mall, they could only pray for the best.
He didn't have the ability to save everyone.
What's more, it was still a simulation game.
Su Hong directly smashed the store window, the glass shattered, and he ran quickly towards the entrance of the subway station.
The blood mist gradually filled the air, and a dark tree broke through the slate tiles and quickly grew into a towering tree.
"Ah!" Some survivors were pierced by the growing branches of the trees and grew upwards together. The screams became more and more blurred, and only blood flowed down the trunks.
"You have witnessed the bloody growth of the Black Forest and comprehended the secret of life. Disaster potential +100."
"You regard death as the secret of life?"
Su Hong cursed inwardly. He was wearing heavy armor, but his body was agile and flexible. He easily avoided the growing deadly trees and entered the subway entrance while the road was still clear.
Without waiting for the slow automatic staircase, he jumped down directly, and his heavy body smashed into the tile floor, and the floor shattered.
"Monster...Monster!!!"
People shouted in fear and wanted to run outside the subway station, but what they didn't know was that the black forest outside was much more terrifying than inside the subway station.
Su Hong, dressed as a medieval knight, went against the crowd. The people fleeing around him were afraid to make way, and he entered the subway station smoothly.
"Hehehe..."
The hoarse laughter echoed, and he saw a skeleton in a tattered black robe in front of him waving a long whip and whipping the survivors for fun.
"A disaster monster that possesses the Soul Whip?" Su Hong's eyes lit up slightly, he flipped over the railing and walked over.
