I slay evil in the Department of the Supernatural

"You guys..." Ding Jian glanced at Lei Chong, who had three incense sticks in his mouth, and then looked at Xu Lindong.

We also ran into that old lady.

However, besides that, we encountered another evil entity, somewhat similar to your situation.

Xu Lindong briefly recounted his experience encountering the traffic light and also offered a few of his own speculations.

"But judging from the current situation, that old woman might be an evil spirit that was once a sanitation worker wandering around the ancient town. Wherever someone dies, she cleans up that place..."

"impossible!"

Ding Jian immediately shook his head, "This old woman has never appeared in this ancient town before, nor have there been any other strange or malevolent entities!"

"But there might be a problem with the sinkhole area now."

Xu Lindong shook his head and then said, "Fortunately, we've already escaped, so let's not talk about it for now."

We need to get to the exit quickly. Lei Chong encountered a wandering spirit earlier and used a secret technique; he's almost at his limit now.

Ding Jian and the others then turned their attention to Lei Chong, whose face was ashen and who looked like a dead man.

It's truly alarming that even someone as strong as Lei Chong is injured like this.

"Brother Gu, did you save Lei Chong?" Miao Zhuang from the North District asked.

Gu Yi's expression turned awkward. "How could I have that ability? It was Lei Chong and Brother Dong who saved me."

If it weren't for them, I wouldn't have been able to escape the traffic light area at all.

Later, I encountered a wandering spirit, and it was Dong Ge who helped... He also dug Lei Chong out of the mound, so I lent a hand.

He kept calling him "Brother Dong," and the content of his words stunned Miao Zhuang, Ding Jian, and the others, who all looked at Xu Lindong in astonishment.

Immediately afterwards, the three men's expressions changed from astonishment to admiration and flattery.

"So that's how it is... I knew you were amazing!"

Ding Jian gave Xu Lindong a thumbs up.

"We're lucky, let's go, don't delay."

Xu Lindong reverted to his usual lucky-boy demeanor, offering a calm and polite remark before urging them to set off, while giving Gu Yi a fleeting glance.

Old Deng is quite adept at playing the game, deliberately praising him and helping him establish his authority, clearly wanting to continue cultivating a relationship.

However, Xu Lindong didn't care; these things couldn't be hidden anyway.

As long as he doesn't expose the power of the zombie sequence and the evil artifacts, and only shows the means of the Kitchen God's descent on the surface, there won't be any problems.

As for his involvement in the zombie sequence, he didn't intend to keep it a secret forever.

That's not realistic either.

It's just not the right time to go public yet.

When the path of simultaneous cultivation within the Xia Kingdom gradually matures, or when a suitable opportunity arises.

Or perhaps one day he will find the right reason and opportunity, and will naturally take the initiative to show it.

Alternatively, I could obtain the corresponding extraordinary substances myself and disguise myself as someone who had just broken through to a higher level of cultivation.

Either reveal the power of the underground passage at the right time, claiming that he had unexpectedly obtained the extraordinary substances of the underground sequence when he entered the sinkhole area of ​​the ancient town.

Because of the danger he encountered, he had to pursue further studies to improve his skills, but he didn't dare to reveal it later because he was afraid of losing his job.

These things can be easily resolved when we have enough strength and the time is right.

In the blink of an eye, Xu Lindong had already followed the crowd out of the ancient town square and arrived at the entrance.

After undergoing strict checks at the entrance, the group left the sinkhole area and arrived at the outer guard fortress area.

Only then did they notice that other executives were already waiting outside.

Some people happened to come out to resupply and rest before the field anomaly occurred, and did not re-enter when the anomaly happened, thus narrowly escaping disaster.

This is the real "lucky guy," he's incredibly fortunate.

Xu Lindong was not familiar with most of the executives.

Exhausted from continuous combat, he did not get close enough to talk to Ding Jian and the others.

After Gu Yi escorted Lei Chong to the infirmary, he followed a garrison soldier to a private room to rest.

Seeing that the soldiers didn't look too good, he casually asked about the situation.

The soldier replied, "The situation is bad, but I don't know the specifics. I only saw a bicycle rush out of the field earlier."

Our men went to stop them, but were hit and killed.

Later, a tank was deployed to stop them.

As a result, the tank was also overturned by the bicycle, and all the men inside were killed. It was like a ghost story.

A hint of fear flashed across the soldier's face, but he quickly realized his mistake and straightened up.

"The bicycle has already sped off, and the captain has led men to chase after it."

"That bicycle Ding Jian and the others were talking about... it actually ran away?"

Xu Lindong was secretly alarmed.

Unexpectedly, the bicycle was able to escape the sinkhole area.

Could it be that the previous anomaly in the field caused a loophole in the sealing formation?

His heart sank.

The ancient town is not far from Jiangcheng.

If that bicycle, which could kill someone at any moment, were to rush into Jiangcheng, many ordinary people in the city would probably die.

But this was no longer something he could control.

He dismissed the soldiers, went inside to pour water and wash his face. He frowned when he smelled the faint stench of death on his body.

"It's been five days, and the smell still hasn't completely dissipated..."

After a moment's hesitation, he locked the door, sat down on the bed, and let his consciousness sink into the Tower of Babel.

The tower currently holds over a dozen zombie corpses, as well as a living zombie and a wandering spirit.

Since the wandering soul was imprisoned here, he had a vague feeling that the Tower of Babel seemed to have undergone some strange change.

The source seems to be that underground room at the top of the tower.

You have to go in and see for yourself to understand the situation.

Inside the Tower of Babel.

Xu Lindong's consciousness stood in the center of the tenth floor hall, looking up at the first floor of the tower with a look of surprise and doubt.

From the tenth floor to the first floor, standing in the center of the lobby and looking up, you can vaguely see the connecting corridor and the top of the doors above.

The tower has a lobby on the tenth floor, and above that, a circular corridor connects the floors, with staircases on both sides spiraling upwards.

However, the tenth floor was too far from the first floor. From his position, he could only glimpse the railing of the connecting corridor and could not see the appearance of the doors.

However, just now, the moment his consciousness entered the tower, he vaguely heard a slight noise coming from behind the tunnel door on the first floor.

The sound was exactly like the clatter of high heels on a wooden floor—subtle, yet eerily terrifying in the deathly silence of the Tower of Babel.

"The first level should correspond to a Sequence One being... Whether it's an evil entity, something else, or even a Sequence Transcendent... how could it be in a tunnel room on the first level?"

Xu Lindong was filled with doubt and uncertainty. He listened intently to the sounds coming from upstairs, his mind a jumble of thoughts.

He clearly remembered that he had never imprisoned anything on the first floor of the Tower of Babel, nor did he have the ability to do so.

When they first acquired the tower, they never noticed any activity on the first floor.

"Could it be that the things behind the first tunnel door existed from the very beginning?"

Just as he was thinking of this, he suddenly heard the faint sound of high heels walking upstairs. He was immediately jolted awake, his mind tensed, and he forced himself to remain calm.

Sudden.

"who I am……"

A faint, intermittent fluctuation of consciousness, as if breaking free from endless slumber, pierced through the tower's walls without warning and reverberated deep within Xu Lindong's mind.

The voice seemed to come from a woman, hollow and blank, yet it carried an ancient and profound quality that sent shivers down one's spine.

"Where am I...?"

Time seemed to freeze at that moment.

The fine, extraordinary energy dust that filled the air inside the tower remained still and suspended.

An indescribable sense of dread, like a cold, slippery snake, suddenly crept up Xu Lindong's spine...

...
