The weapon refiner is not doing her job properly

Chapter 239 The Slaughterhouse (17)

Song Hu: "..." He was actually joking, but in the end he still handed him an individually wrapped wet wipe.

Covering their faces with their hands was too much trouble, so the two simply tied tissues to their faces to cover their mouths and noses.

Meeting Su Ninglong's slightly strange gaze, Yinggu asked in a muffled voice, "Do you think we're being particularly pretentious?"

Su Ninglong shook her head: "Like two clumsy robbers who've just started out."

Eagle Bone: "All robbers are fierce and menacing, how could one be so handsome?"

Just then, Tong Zi appeared in the freight room carrying two people: one was Zhao Piku, and the other was a long-haired pig-headed man, presumably the accountant.

She had already been knocked unconscious by the electric shock from Zhaopiku.

Tong Zi threw the pig-headed finance man on the ground, and Zhao Piku whispered, "I'm afraid my superpowers won't be able to control her for long."

Before he could finish speaking, the finance idiot slowly woke up.

She looked around warily and asked sharply, "Who are you? What do you want?"

Tong Zi and Zhao Piku were speechless for a moment. Just as they were about to knock her unconscious again, Su Ninglong took the initiative to step forward.

“I invited you,” she said naturally, even with a hint of apology. “I’m sorry to invite you in such a rude way. Here’s the thing, we’re preparing a banquet, and the food is all ready.”

Following the direction Su Ninglong indicated, the finance idiot's eyes immediately lit up.

How can there be such a "generous" pig-headed person as Suninglong in the world?
Afternoon tea is a feast, and even late-night snacks are a feast!
However, she remained wary of going out at night: "Then why didn't you invite me this afternoon?"

“Because I wasn’t sure how much food I could prepare at the time,” Su Ninglong said with unusual sincerity. “And to entertain our distinguished guests, we couldn’t just invite anyone. We had to personally invite them one by one.”

The teammates standing nearby couldn't help but silently give Su Ninglong a thumbs up for her ability to improvise stories.

That's quite a boast!

The finance manager, somewhat relieved, thought Su Ninglong was indeed "sensible." "You were recommended, right? Who was it? Do I know them?"

“Yuan Tingchao!” One of the three five-star hunters who joined the Star Alliance with Doug, and the only one who escaped unscathed from the Filthy Spirit Contaminated Zone.

Upon hearing this name, the finance idiot's eyes suddenly turned cold.

She attacked Su Ninglong without warning; the speed of her shadow was astonishing, and the surrounding red light clearly enhanced her supernatural abilities.

Su Ninglong was prepared and quickly retreated.

At the same time, she gently moved her fingers behind her back, and the "Shadow Binding Silk" that had been set up beforehand fell down.

Song Hu and Ying Gu attacked at the same time.

"Certainly!"

A pink bubble landed precisely on the accountant, "Pop!"

The financial figure's shadow receded abruptly, and her head rolled off. The chunks of flesh hidden inside her body, as if scalded, slid out automatically from the severed neck.

Su Ninglong quickly grabbed the piece of flesh, stuffed it into the Secret Agent's Token, and then threw the corpse toward the source of the stench without hesitation.

The entire operation was incredibly smooth and perfectly coordinated.

Tong Zi and Zhao Piku exchanged a glance and continued with their plan to kidnap the next target.

This night will be a sleepless one.

Meanwhile, Qian Rujin, who had been holding back all day, finally began to sneak into the slaughterhouse at night.

However, they were far more cautious than Su Ninglong and the others, sneaking into this increasingly dangerous area silently like shadows.

Qian Rujin's team was large, and their abilities were more diverse. There were one or two spiritualists in the team with abilities similar to Tong Zi, who assisted them in quietly infiltrating the slaughter area.

The slaughter area was deserted at night, with sparse and dim red lights. They could only move forward in the dark, carefully avoiding the cold and dangerous slaughtering equipment.

Passing through the slaughterhouse, they arrived at the "human and animal area." They had seen these "humans and animals" during their morning exploration.

The bizarre creature with a human head and a pig's body made many people involuntarily wonder if their own faces had ever been transplanted onto such a body.

At that moment, some people almost lost control and tried to rush in to rescue their own face.

Qian Rujin stopped them in time. Leaving aside what would happen after they were rescued, could they really cut off their heads and reattach them?
They proceeded cautiously until they finally encountered the slaughterhouse, which they had failed to discover the day before and which was even more hidden.

As for whether a fierce battle broke out there.

Su Ninglong was completely unaware of this, as they were busy "entertaining" those high-ranking idiots.

Using a gang-up tactic, they purged nearly a quarter of the senior management in record time.

After capturing and killing all the pig-headed men they had marked that day, they caught their breath and then headed back to the assembly room as planned, just as they had strayed from Qian Rujin's team and went in the opposite direction.

In the assembly room, under the dim red light, many headless bodies stood silently, exuding a strong sense of danger.

The moment Su Ninglong and her group stepped in, perhaps because of their large numbers, they startled them.

The headless bodies turned towards them in unison and began to run closer. In the darkness, their movements were impossible to discern. Worse still, these monsters were not physical entities, but rather pure sources of mental pollution.

Su Ninglong felt an extremely cold and resentful force penetrate her body, causing her to go numb all over and almost freeze in place.

If Suninglong is in such a state, Tong Zi and Zhao Piku's situation is probably no better.

Fortunately, they were all experienced veterans, and they quickly retreated to an area inside the slaughterhouse that was still shrouded in red light.

I never imagined that I would fall into a hellhole after just escaping the "cesspool".

Although Song Hu and Ying Gu anticipated the attack and attempted to counterattack, the "Imprisonment" spell of their spirit-writing technique was completely ineffective against these headless men, and Ying Gu's specially made bullets also failed to work.

Due to their inferior physical abilities compared to Tong Zi and Zhao Piku, they were a step slower in retreating.

Su Ninglong had no choice but to use both hands to grab the two who were almost frozen and quickly retreat.

They retreated quickly, but the headless men chased even faster. Tong Zi raised his cane, pulled the trigger, and the Star Eclipse's specially made "dissolving bullet" could even damage such ethereal spirits. With one shot, he scattered the headless men who were closely following Su Ninglong.

However, in just a moment, the headless figure reformed. Su Ninglong could clearly see the surging black energy during the reformation process, which was indeed exactly the same as the hooks in the factory manager's office.

"Attack them only after they enter the red light range!" Tong Zi shouted urgently.

Her judgment was correct. Once inside the red light, the headless man temporarily gained physical form and became easier to destroy.

Even when "killed," they didn't shed any flesh. And those bodies that fell outside the red light would turn into black smoke and reform in other places. "They're unkillable again..." This was always the case in the contaminated zone. The Mystic Spirits especially loved this trick: never truly dying, yet giving people false hope, ultimately driving them to collapse in repeated despair.

"Let's go, retreat to the human and animal area. There's also an area covered by red light there," Su Ninglong decisively ordered.

Tong Zi and Su Ninglong simultaneously activated the protective functions of the sacred artifacts, and the six of them worked together to rush towards the human and animal area. Although it was quite far away, its advantage lay in its secluded location, far from the main corridor.

Everyone looked somewhat disheveled when they arrived at the destination.

The headless man's physical attack power is not strong, but his mental erosion is extremely difficult to endure.

Tong Zi and Zhao Piku, who could only support themselves, were in dire straits.

In contrast, Song Hu and Ying Gu, perhaps because Sally had taken precautions and strengthened her mental defenses, appeared to be full of energy.

They lured all the headless men who were chasing them into the red light and killed them. However, there were simply too many headless men. Perhaps because they had killed so many, the remaining ones no longer approached easily, but lingered in the darkness outside the red light, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

"These headless people... they don't shed chunks of flesh, what exactly are they?" As for pig-headed people, Zhaopiku could understand them as clones of the Mystic Spirits. The Filthy Feast Spirit splits itself into many parts, and as long as it is not completely destroyed, it can gradually recover.

There is no way to eliminate them except through containment.

"How are you all?" Tong Zi asked them, calming the restless spiritual energy within her.

Eagle Bone said, slightly out of breath, "I feel like I've been buffed up, but I'm fine."

Song Hu nodded in agreement: "After being mentally attacked just now, my SAN value first plummeted and then rebounded strongly. Now I feel like I'm about to break through. Teaming up with them more often in the future might bring unexpected gains."

Tong Zi: "If we win this time, Charlie, Sally, and Lian Xinyi will be in high demand. It might not be so easy for you to form a team."

“It’s okay, all three of them are Ning Long’s die-hard fans. As long as we keep Su Ning Long by our side, they will naturally follow obediently. Others may not know, but the real ‘hot commodity’ is actually Su Ning Long.”

Su Ninglong raised an eyebrow: "You're trying to win me over, can't you just talk about terms? I don't have a big appetite."

No one responded to her.

After all, very few people can satisfy the appetite of this "rich woman Su".

Just as they were considering their next move, the door to the hidden night slaughterhouse in the distance was suddenly kicked open from the inside.

Qian Rujin and his team escaped in a sorry state, pursued closely by eight strong and powerful overseers, wielding heavy weapons and mercilessly swinging them at them.

Those weapons looked dull, heavy, and clumsy; if you were hit by one, you'd probably lose half your life.

Having witnessed the foreman's terrifying regenerative abilities, Qian Rujin and the others originally planned to temporarily avoid confrontation.

Unfortunately, they ended up fleeing in the direction of Su Ninglong.

Tong Zi immediately shouted a warning: "Don't come this way! There's something even more dangerous here."

Hearing the shouts, Qian Rujin rushed over with even greater determination. They had not encountered any other threats along the way and were skeptical of Tong Zi's warning.

Seeing that their opponents showed no sign of slowing down, Tong Zi and the others' expressions immediately turned very strange. They could still put up a fight against the overseer, but what about dealing with those invisible headless figures in the darkness…

Forget it, I might as well go back and fight the foreman head-on, and then find a chance to escape.

Just as she passed by Qian Rujin and the others, Su Ninglong suddenly unfolded the Guixu Umbrella and turned to meet the pursuing supervisor.

The sounds of fierce fighting immediately rang out behind them.

The Star Alliance members didn't take it seriously and continued to rush into the darkness, but they suddenly gasped and almost scrambled back into the red light's range.

Fear was written all over everyone's face. "We've been scammed again!" one of them couldn't help but curse.

Someone said in a deep voice, "They reminded us, but we didn't listen."

This is even more frustrating!

Tong Zi vaguely heard the curses coming from the Star Glory Alliance and secretly rolled her eyes.

If you don't warn them, they'll say they deliberately set a trap; if you do warn them, they won't believe you and will still fall into it, and you'll still get yelled at.

The Star Alliance, from top to bottom, is indeed all the same; when something goes wrong, they only know how to shirk responsibility.

Meanwhile, Su Ninglong and her team, facing the overseer head-on, were under immense pressure. The overseer's recovery ability was extremely abnormal, and his fighting style was utterly insane.

Eagle Bone was careless and his hand was scratched twice by the overseer's sharp claws.

He began to see overlapping afterimages, and no matter how hard he shook his head, he couldn't concentrate.

"Teacher, I need to be transferred... snort!" Eagle Bone's voice was filled with panic, and that abrupt pig squeal seemed to indicate that the "pig-turning" virus infection had begun.

He feared he would completely transform into one of those irrational beasts.

The pollution worsened, prompting everyone to intensify their efforts.

"I'll draw them away." Su Ninglong made a quick decision, ducking to dodge a heavy horizontal slash from a giant blade, and grabbed Tong Zi. "The hatred is now focused on me."

She had spent a long time dealing with these overseers yesterday, but they still remembered her, and almost all of their attacks were directed at her.

Tong Zi instantly understood Su Ninglong's intention.

She grabbed Su Ninglong and quickly created a teleportation mark, sending her directly to the rear of the overseer team.

The Binding Shadow Silk was released in response, and Su Ninglong closed her fingers, continuously injecting pure spiritual energy into the silk threads.

The shadowy threads, as nimbly as if they were alive, wrapped around the necks of the pig-headed overseers, then tightened suddenly, twisting their heads a full 180 degrees.

For a moment, all the supervisors could see was Su Ninglong's indifferent back.

Two supervisors, perhaps angered by Zhao Piku's electric shock, did not pursue Su Ninglong. Instead, they held their ground, adopting a "one man guards the pass, ten thousand cannot pass" stance.

A show of power is ultimately just a show of power; it may look intimidating, but Tong Zi and Zhao Piku are not weaklings.

Working together, the two quickly broke free from the entanglement.

Qian Rujin and the others remained bystanders, watching the astonishing tacit understanding between the Star Alliance members with complex expressions.

It's no wonder that police departments and the military prefer to cooperate with the Star Alliance; they have a stronger sense of morality and are rarely willing to abandon their teammates during missions.

But what hunter isn't afraid of their teammates suddenly mutating and becoming the victim themselves? From this perspective, the Star Alliance's educational approach may not be wrong.

"Teacher Qian, let's go too. My powers have been restored, and I can teleport back to the rest room."

"We had no casualties this time, so it went relatively smoothly. It's a different story on their side. Just now, one of them made a pig-like squeal. The pollution level must be quite high." The group whispered among themselves, feeling that they had finally salvaged some face.
