Terrible news! My deskmate's first chapter is gone!

The moment Chen Xi thought of those words, she couldn't help but feel a little scared.

How could I have such thoughts?

Was it guided by the innate power within him?

Chen Xi quickly shook his head:

"Let's go."

"Let's go back."

"The monsters inside the black mist are stronger than us, and besides, almost all of the Black Tower Stone is now corrupted."

"I cannot summon Yaozu to protect me."

"For safety's sake, let's go back to Shangjing City first, and I'll upgrade your identity."

"The boss is awesome!"

Chen Xi had another purpose in going back: to "save" more fake people!

He was now certain that he could not stop Fusu, who possessed an innate talent for power within him.

Since it's going to happen sooner or later, let's just speed it up!

He also wanted to know what this innate talent within him was.

If we can master it, that would be a good thing.

After all, the power of the sleepless is too weak, especially after going out. In his daytime state, Chen Xi didn't even dare to go out!

Also, it would be best to bring Zhou Xiaogu into the team when we go back this time.

Yang Wei could see the name, but he couldn't tell the other party's stage, since he was only at stage I, and even if he reached stage II, there would still be limitations.

With Zhou Xiaogu's involvement and Yang Wei's cooperation, Chen Xi would be able to roughly distinguish between pseudo-humans in the three stages of the extraordinary realm.

Just as the two turned around...

suddenly.

The sound of "bang! bang! bang!" came from afar.

The sound grew louder and louder as it approached from afar, while the aftershocks of the tremors continued to reverberate beneath our feet.

"What the hell?"

Yang Wei exclaimed in surprise, and the two of them turned around at the same time to look in the direction of the epicenter.

In the distance, not far away...

A monster about 25 meters long, covered in black fur, rushed out.

The black-haired monster has a pair of exaggerated bull horns on its head and a pair of bat-like wings on its back. It's unclear whether it can fly because there are holes in the wings.

Something seemed to be hanging from the bull's horns, but I couldn't see it clearly; it looked like a human shape.

"What kind of monster is this?!"

Chen Xi's eyes narrowed, and a bad premonition immediately formed in his heart.

Because the black-haired monster was looking directly in his and Yang Wei's direction!

Unlike dragons, this was a monster that Chen Xi had never seen in any myths or legends.

This world is crazier than I imagined...

This was Chen Xi's most immediate reaction upon seeing the black-haired monster.

"8......"

"Calling him 'Dad' won't work, even if the monster can understand him."

"Of course, calling me 'Dad' is even less effective!"

Chen Xi assumed Yang Wei was about to unleash the first part of his "flexible and adaptable" power, and said without turning his head.

"No, boss!"

"I, Yang Wei, am a man of iron will! How could I easily acknowledge someone as my father?"

"8 is the number above that monster's head!"

"He's just like the girl we met on the high-speed train."

"There's only one number above their heads!"

"That girl is a 9, and this one is an 8!"

Chu Qingge!

Chen Xi immediately thought of the girl's name and appearance on the high-speed train.

The other person had long, wavy, wine-red hair, a small face, almond-shaped eyes, exquisite makeup, and was about 165 cm tall. She was wearing a JK uniform.

At that moment, Chen Xi's only concern was the other person's strength.

That strength was even greater than Chen Xi's; it was definitely not something a tall, thin girl could possess.

At the time, Chen Xi had no containment artifacts to refer to, and initially thought that the number 9 was a serial number.

They naturally assumed that Chu Qingge was a forbidden creature capable of moving freely and taking human form.

However, the later discovery of the Wave Needle and the magic potion shattered this theory.

Superhumans, imposters, containment objects, mysterious numbers.

This is Yang Wei's extraordinary quality; the truth can be seen.

The first three have a specific name, but the last one only has a number.

A 9 and an 8, a girl and a monster—it's hard to imagine any connection between the two.

On the one hand, Chen Xi didn't know what these numbers represented, and on the other hand, how many of these numbers were there in total?

Is it like the Overlord Sequence, Supreme Talent, and Forbidden Items, which only have 10, or are there a whole bunch of them following behind?

This problem is currently unsolvable, since we've only encountered two such headband-wearing devices.

Besides that, there was something else that was quite unexpected.

That's the Black Tower ball!

Yang Wei's eyes can see everything; as long as you're not normal, he can definitely tell something from you.

But the words "Black Tower" are...

And the unseen form of tennis.

It cannot be a superhuman or a fake.

It's not a number either; normally it should only be a prohibited item.

The prohibited items are currently known to be as follows.

Number 1: Reverse Clock.

Number 2: ?

Number 3: ?

Number 4: Qitian Stone Crown

Number 5: Primal Seed

Number 6: Golden Finger

Numbers 7-10: ?

Chen Xi simply couldn't imagine that the forbidden item numbered 2 or lower would be the Black Tower!

If the Black Tower isn't a forbidden object, then what is it?

It seems that it can only be a fifth force, apart from superhumans, fake humans, containment objects, and mysterious numbers.

Or perhaps it surpasses number 1...

Number 0?

However, as of now, the highest number in these top ten rankings is 1, and there has never been a precedent of it being 0.

The instant Chen Xi heard the number 8, countless thoughts raced through her mind, but ultimately, none of them held any certainty.

......

boom! boom! boom!

The approaching sound interrupted Chen Xi's scattered thoughts.

So fast!

Chen Xi raised an eyelid. From a distance, it didn't seem like anything special, but upon closer inspection, he realized that this thing was not only large in size but also fast.

With such a massive size, it was even faster than me at three times the physical strength I had at night!

"Turn off the engine!"

After saying this, the two quickly stuck the torches into the ground, performing a suffocation ritual on the flames in the most primitive way.

The surroundings suddenly went dark, and Chen Xi couldn't guarantee that the other party wouldn't notice him.

Especially the other person's eyes, which had a jewel-like luster.

The terrifying figure instantly magnified in Chen Xi's pupils.

Fortunately, whether it was divine intervention or not, the black-haired monster didn't even glance at them, charging past like a raging bull.

They smashed the white skeleton the two had just discovered to pieces without looking back.

After a long time

"Boss, what happened?"

"It feels like a dream."

"You survived?"

"Didn't do anything?"

Chen Xi did not answer, but pointed upwards.

"climb!"

To avoid any unforeseen complications, Chen Xi applied the principle of equality to Yang Wei, and the two quickly climbed back to the cliff.

"You drive."

"Let's hurry, lest something unexpected happens."

After Chen Xi finished speaking, he opened the passenger door. He was driving, so Yang Wei could get a little rest and getting out of the black fog wouldn't be a problem.

In the remaining time, he needs to purify the Black Tower Stone. After he goes out, the daytime will be Chen Xi's weak period, and he will need the power of Yaozu!

A week later, guided by Chen Xi, the two finally unleashed the Black Mist.

The route Chen Xi took back this time was chosen based on the brightness of the black mist, so naturally they wouldn't go back to where they entered.

But the place they came out of still exceeded Chen Xi's expectations.

Sheung Shui City!

The two of them ended up near a provincial highway in a town on the outskirts of Sheung Shui!

"How is that possible...?"

"This map doesn't match my memory at all!"

Chen Xi stared at the landmark not far away, her face filled with disbelief.
