Highway Survival for All: My RV's Infinite Evolution

Inspector Lyon paid no attention to the stares of the crowd.

He slowly turned around, his deep and indifferent eyes lingering for two seconds on the pile of Raymond tree demon remains that Lin Hui had blown to pieces.

Then, he glanced again at the tree-man whose head had been beheaded by the short-haired woman.

Finally, he raised his head, his gaze spanning dozens of meters, and landed on Lin Hui.

Eyes facing each other.

After a moment, Inspector Lyon broke the silence.

He reached up and straightened his hat brim, his tone so calm it was completely unfathomable:

"I apologize, this was a mistake by the police department. Raymond and his two companions were corrupted by demons last night, escaped from the police station's detention cells this morning, and rapidly became demonized during their escape. If you hadn't intervened, many more townspeople would likely have been harmed."

Lin Hui did not lower his guard because of Leon's apology. He seized the opportunity to ask, "Inspector Leon, are these tree-men the 'demons' you're referring to?"

He pointed to the wreckage on the ground, his tone tinged with a hint of probing, "If that's the case, then the legendary demon's strength seems rather ordinary."

Aside from its high defense, the large "Raymond" is a bit more troublesome, but in the face of absolute power, it's just a matter of one shot.

Upon hearing this, Sheriff Lyon strode forward, his leather boots clicking on the gravel, and stopped five meters in front of Lin Hui.

He took a metal box from his jacket pocket, pulled out an exquisite cigar, slowly cut it open, and lit it.

"call--"

Lyon took a deep breath and exhaled a thick cloud of smoke.

His expression became somewhat obscure amidst the swirling smoke.

"No, Mr. Lin, you've made a mistake."

Leon, with a cigar between his fingers, pointed to the corpses on the ground. "They weren't really... demons."

He paused, as if explaining common knowledge to everyone:

"After being infected by the demon, ordinary players will first be transformed into 'Tree People,' while players who have awakened their specialization will be transformed into the more powerful 'Tree Spirits.' At this stage, they still retain some human memories and instincts, and may even retain the hatred they had in their previous lives."

At this point, Lyon's voice suddenly turned cold:

"However, this is just the beginning."

"Once they come into contact with the mist after 7 PM again in this state, or enter the Wall of Mist... they will be completely transformed into true 'demons'!"

"It was a terrifying creature that had completely lost its humanity, leaving only the instinct to kill, and was ten times stronger than these tree demons."

Ten times more powerful?!

Upon hearing this, Lin Hui nodded thoughtfully.

If that's the case, a large quantity would indeed cause some trouble.

"and……"

Inspector Lyon flicked his cigarette ash and continued,

"The most terrifying thing about demons is not just their power. They can also bewitch people's minds and break down players' wills! Players with slightly weaker mental strength will have their wills collapse instantly and willingly assimilate into their being just by looking at them."

"That's why I'm warning you: once the fog appears at night, you must close all doors and windows and draw the curtains tightly. Do not respond to any shouts, cries for help, or even the voices of your loved ones outside!"

"Once you see the demons, or respond to them, even with just a single word... you open the door of your heart to them, and corruption... follows."

That's it!

Lin Hui nodded, some of his doubts resolved.

Meanwhile, the three South Koreans standing nearby looked even more unpleasant.

They had always been confident in their strength, thinking that even without a vehicle, they could break out of the town with their Tier 2 assassin expertise and special forces skills.

But just now...

They were completely overwhelmed by just two tree spirits that had not yet fully "demonized".

What if it's a real demon?

Moreover, according to Lyon, these demons are... everywhere, densely packed, in the misty town at night!

Upon realizing this, the short-haired woman's face turned deathly pale.

Song Shan and Chen Ye exchanged a glance and saw the fear in each other's eyes.

This time, the "Misty Town" dungeon is even more difficult than "God's Gaze"!

Previously, all you needed to do was brute force; this instance has too many secrets and rules.

At this moment, Chen Ye's injuries had been significantly relieved after taking a bottle of Bai Ling's specially made healing potion that Lin Hui had casually tossed to him.

He struggled to sit up and asked, "Sheriff, is there something stronger than the demons?"

Lyon nodded, his gaze fixed on the deep shadows in the depths of the cemetery.

"certainly."

The short-haired woman took a deep breath, gritted her teeth, and asked, "Isn't there any way to get out?"

This question reflects the sentiments of everyone.

Leon shook his head, his gaze becoming deep and distant: "Since I entered the town, not a single player has been able to leave alive."

His voice was soft, yet it felt like a boulder pressing down on everyone's hearts.

"and……"

He glanced at Lin Hui, his tone becoming meaningful, "I've seen quite a few players stronger than you."

"Lilith's mother, Lady Evelyn, is absolutely the most brilliant and powerful player I've ever seen. She can even fight head-on against Tier 7 creatures from the Misty Lands without using any vehicles, relying solely on her own abilities, and not be at a disadvantage."

"But what was the result?"

Leon shrugged, a hint of regret in his voice, "Even someone as powerful as her couldn't escape her fate in the end and became a demon."

"She became one of the most terrifying demons in the entire town!!"

hiss……

Can it fight a Tier 7 creature head-on without being at a disadvantage?

Upon hearing this, Lin Hui's brows finally furrowed slightly.

Although his physique is currently formidable, if he were to fight a Tier 7 mythical creature head-on without the aid of a vehicle...

He is very self-aware.

We absolutely cannot win!

Putting everything else aside, the level of mental pollution alone is something that the current physical body cannot withstand.

Chen Ye and Song Shan couldn't help but sigh heavily, their eyes filled with despair.

If even those formidable individuals can't get out, what hope do they have?

Am I really destined to be trapped in this misty town forever? Will I eventually become an NPC resident with no memories, no emotions, only capable of mechanical work?
