After completing the bizarre game, the world experienced a global resurgence of strange occurrences.

When the two arrived at the mall, they found it was already packed with people.

People gathered in twos and threes, pointing in the direction of the branch members, and whispering to each other from time to time.

"Speaking of which, this is your first time dealing with a strange incident in a busy downtown area. I didn't expect it to turn out like this."

Seeing so many people, the Mirror Ghost couldn't help but feel a little curious.

"The frequency of strange events is increasing, and once they occur in crowded areas, it is definitely not an easy task to suppress the situation."

I wonder when the organization plans to reveal its mysterious existence.

"This is not something we should worry about."

Chen Zhuo didn't care about any of that. He immediately led Ling Yichen through the crowd to the cordon in front of the mall.

The white team leader, who was directing the work, immediately put down his work and rushed over to the two of them when he saw Chen Zhuo.

"Consultant Chen, it's been a long time."

"White Team? Long time no see!"

After exchanging a few pleasantries with him and introducing Ling Yichen, Chen Zhuo crossed the cordon in front of the mall amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd.

The three arrived at the mall entrance and immediately sensed the eerie aura emanating from it.

"Senior Bai, are you sure you don't need to disperse this crowd of onlookers?"

Hearing what the Mirror Ghost said, Ling Yichen also became curious and couldn't help but ask a question.

Team White was very polite to the people Chen Zhuo brought.

"Because of the increasing number of bizarre events, the organization finally decided on Monday this week to no longer hide the existence of these strange phenomena from the public."

However, to avoid causing panic, the organization instructed us to proceed gradually.

The purpose of having this group of people gather here is to make them realize that their lives are not peaceful right now.

Once they accept this, then tell them about the existence of the supernatural; they will be more convinced that way.

As Ling Yichen suddenly realized what was happening, his attention shifted back to the shopping mall in front of him.

When he noticed the eerie aura emanating from the Winter Snow Demon in the mall again, a look of surprise flashed across his face.

"Is the eerie atmosphere in the mall stronger than before?"

"It's a weird growth-type story!"

Chen Zhuo naturally noticed the change in the eerie aura and immediately turned to ask the White Team leader beside him.

Are there still people in the mall?

The more murders a character with a growth potential kills, the greater their strength will increase. However, if there are no people left in the mall, they will be unable to continue improving.

The white team member took the thermal imaging device from the team member and naturally handed it to Chen Zhuo. Only when he saw the black lines around Chen Zhuo's eyes did he realize that Chen Zhuo was blind.

"In the early stages of the strange phenomenon, only 40% of people noticed something was wrong and left the mall in time."

The remaining 60% believed that this was a tactic used by shopping malls to attract customers.

The Winter Snow Demon possesses a mysterious domain, and the mall is densely populated, so its growth rate is extremely fast.

By the time they realized the danger, it was too late; now they can only hide inside the mall.

"Look, a few more people are missing!"

Ling Yichen pointed at the thermal imager and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Among the scattered points of light on the screen, several gradually dimmed, changing from bright red to orange-red, and finally to yellow-green.

Seeing this, the white team leader looked rather grim and put the thermal imaging device into his pocket.

"This can't go on; there are still a lot of survivors in the mall."

If the Winter Snow Demon is allowed to continue killing, it will inevitably grow into a B-level monster!

A B-rank anomaly possessing a mysterious domain can cause unimaginable damage!

"The most urgent task is to save lives and prevent the monster from continuing to grow!"

Upon hearing this, Ling Yichen rubbed his hands together, eager to rush into the mall.

Just then, Chen Zhuo placed his white cane in front of him, abruptly stopping him in his tracks.

"Observe before you act, or you're just courting death."

"observe?"

Ling Yichen subconsciously looked up and gazed in the direction of the mall's entrance.

The mall doors were tightly closed, and looking through the glass, all I could see was a vast expanse of white.

The ground floor was now covered with a layer of snow, which was about knee-deep.

The most eye-catching feature is the two snowmen behind the gate.

The two snowmen standing at the door had human eyeballs, with blood slowly sliding down their eyeballs and merging with a smiley face made of teeth.

The snowman's arms on its left and right sides are not tree branches or anything like that, but rather the arms of two people!

Perhaps because the temperature was too low, my arms had turned white from the cold and were covered with a layer of frost.

Ling Yichen sensed a subtle, eerie aura emanating from the two snowmen.

Team White seemed somewhat surprised: "When did this snowman appear? There wasn't anything at the door just now!"

"It seems it has acquired the ability to assimilate, turning the dead into monsters!"

As Chen Zhuo's voice came, a chill ran through Ling Yichen's heart.

If I had rashly gone up there, I certainly wouldn't have noticed those two snowmen, who blended seamlessly into the snow behind them. If those two snowmen had taken the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, my fate would have been...

Thinking of this, Ling Yichen thanked Chen Zhuo repeatedly.

"Having drive is a good thing, but you absolutely mustn't be reckless! Unless you possess the ability to crush everything!"

Chen Zhuo spoke earnestly, and then walked towards the mall entrance.

Seeing this, Ling Yichen and Captain Bai quickly followed behind.

The three walked to the glass door, and the snowman behind the door suddenly came to life.

He suddenly turned his head towards the three of them, and swung his arm out with a biting cold wind.

The snow beneath their feet churned and surged as their bodies slammed into the glass door like arrows released from a bow, instantly covering the thick glass with spiderweb-like cracks.

A series of piercing screams erupted from the crowd.

"Monster! It's a monster!"

"A monster is eating people! Run!"

People who had been crowding outside the cordon scattered and fled, their cries and footsteps mingling together.

Chen Zhuo paused, quickly retreated behind Ling Yichen and the other person, and took out the Rubik's Cube he had used before.

As a wisp of eerie energy was injected, the patterns on the surface of the Rubik's Cube suddenly lit up, then split into several fragments that scattered and flew to various corners of the mall.

An invisible barrier unfolded in the blink of an eye, completely sealing off the entire shopping mall.

As a door opener with many years of experience, the White Team has a wealth of practical experience. In just a few rounds, they defeated one of the snowmen!

Just as the White Team leader was about to turn around to help Ling Yichen, his wrist was stopped by a slightly cool hand.

"Let him do it himself." Chen Zhuo's voice was calm and even. "If he can't even withstand this much training, he'll only die faster in the future."

Team White withdrew their hand and looked at Ling Yichen with some envy.

To receive personal guidance from Chen Zhuo is an opportunity that many people in the branch dream of.

Ling Yichen took a deep breath to suppress his nervousness.

He gripped the strange weapon in his hand, dodged the snowman's gaping maw, and then threw the weapon out.

The treacherous weapon flashed through the air, striking the snowman's shoulder with pinpoint accuracy, instantly halting its movements.

Taking advantage of the break, Ling Yichen quickly stepped forward and kicked the snowman in the chest.

The snowman slid backward several meters, and the snow beneath him suddenly churned violently.

Several sharp ice spikes suddenly shot out from the ground, whistling through the air as they aimed straight for his vital points.

Ling Yichen quickly jumped backward, narrowly avoiding the ice spikes.

But the snowman gave him no chance to catch his breath and pounced on him again.

At the same time, several more ice spikes formed and shot from different angles, blocking all his escape routes.

Ling Yichen's face darkened upon seeing this, and he was shocked to find that the weapon was no longer in his hand when he raised it!
