I'm drawing an action-packed anime within a depressing one!

Chapter 44, is there a plot hole here?! (Please read on!)

The next update of "Monster City".

From a distance, He Zhou seized the opportunity and launched a homing attack.

A white light enveloped Aunt Lin's entire body, and she and it felt as if the whole world had become warmer.

What happened...?

I want to sleep so much, I feel so peaceful.

The level four observation-level red-eyed demon tried to struggle, but still paused briefly for half a second in the white light, still in a daze.

In that half-second pause.

The countless eyes that had sprouted and split into countless snake-head-like, intertwined things slowly shrank back, like thick, sticky ink.

Returning home…

Of course, we must return to the demons' lair!

He Zhou couldn't help but sigh.

This ability is absolutely terrifying!

strengthen!

We must strengthen this!

...

The demon shrank back into the old man's body.

The old man, whose face had been contorted just moments before, suddenly collapsed to the ground.

"Aunt Lin!"

"Aunt Lin!"

Everyone else went forward to check on Aunt Lin's condition.

Standing in the corner next to He Zhou, Jiang Dairu resembled a nine-tailed fox spirit displaying its enormous nine tails. Her normal shadow, after entering another world, swelled into a huge black and white single-tailed cat shadow.

"Meow!!!!!"

Just as the level four red-eyed demon was about to crawl back into Aunt Lin's body, it was swatted away by the swift black and white cat shadow with a single claw.

Although the difference is only one level, in terms of strength, it is an overwhelming defeat!

...

The readers of the comic felt instantly relieved when they saw this scene.

[This cat's silhouette is moving so fast it reminds me of those country cat fight videos I used to see... only bigger.]

[That's more like it! This is the kind of shonen anime I've been wanting! This plot must have been written by Lao He! If Tian Xiaoxi had written it... Aunt Lin would definitely be dead.]

[You're too naive. If Tian Xiaoxi were to write it, at least three characters would die: Aunt Lin, the team leader, and then a student from the experimental class. After they all die, she'll tell us that this is the weight the main storyline should have!]

This comment immediately made Tian Xiaoxi blush, but she couldn't refute it.

"what!"

"Isn't this exciting and entertaining enough?!"

The weight of tears brings depth and sublimation to the plot!

Do they even understand?

only…

Tian Xiaoxi glanced at the next square, where the team members wore smiles of relief after surviving a disaster, and Aunt Lin, who was lying on the ground, opened her eyes and looked at them with surprise. She couldn't help but fall silent again.

...

never mind…

At least this part of the main storyline is finally over. If she remembers correctly, the next part should be the ranking part of the new curriculum placement test.

This part is on campus.

When she set up this part of the outline, she only wanted to give the main characters a chance to make an appearance and dominate the school.

Tian Xiaoxi leaned back, and as she thought about the main plot to come, inspiration suddenly struck her.

She added the following information about the plot: [After the course was arranged, the school, feeling the increasing danger and the possibility of the situation spiraling out of control, intensified the drills for the students!]

Every class was packed with activities! Whenever He Zhou came in last place in any subject, the homeroom teacher and other teachers would call him in for individual tutoring and assign him loads of homework…

"Add extra lessons!"

"Perfect!"

"It can both exercise and improve your skills!"

Only rigorous courses can produce the best students!

The higher the difficulty, the more likely even a fragile, weak character will improve through relentless practice!

As for He Zhou not being the last one?

That's impossible!

Tian Xiaoxi had never even considered this possibility.

Its load-bearing capacity is only 3.1!

3.1!

...

In "The City of Monsters".

The issues with Buildings 2 and 3 have been resolved.

He Zhou immediately heard the sound of popularity increasing next to him.

[Popularity increased by 0.6]

[Popularity increased by 0.6]

[Popularity increased by 0.6]

[Congratulations on gaining 2 story points!]

Congratulations on earning 1 highlight point!

[Highlights have been retained; highlight evaluation: calm and composed]

[Current Highlight: 4]

[Next Level: Passerby in the Story]

[Upgrading to a background character in the story requires: 50 popularity points, 7 story points, and 2 highlight points.]

[The current plot points and highlights have been met.]

Although it hasn't reached fifty popularity points yet.

However, after spending ten points to upgrade the Nesting skill, I now have twenty-five points. I only need five more points to use up the extra five points for the upgrade gong.

"good."

"Calm and composed?"

He has now accumulated three high-profile evaluations. Although he doesn't know what they are for, the more He Zhou thinks about this protagonist of destiny, the more he feels that these evaluations should be more useful than he imagined.

...

After dealing with the three demons here, it's time for the investigation and wrap-up of today's work.

One team began investigating the cause of the anomaly, and after twenty minutes of investigation, they finally determined the cause.

"team leader."

"It's Building 3 here."

"It has been confirmed that Building 3 is the center point, covering Buildings 2 and 4."

"Fortunately, not many people live in the four buildings. The only two households living there often go to the shop, so the impact is not too great."

Li Muyun reported all the information she had gathered to Song Zhenyu.

Song Zhenyu released his energy to sense it, and compared it with the complete movement that his eyes could see, he nodded in affirmation.

"This is indeed the place."

"Aunt Lin, do you remember when it started?"

...

When?

Aunt Lin was still a little weak after waking up.

But she still tried to think it over, and then hesitantly led them back to her room.

She pointed to the clay sculpture over there: "It must have been about a month ago, when I put it here..."

"This clay sculpture of the Earth God was carved by a student and given to me a few years ago. It was just placed on the table before."

"I left it here while I was cleaning, and then it quickly..."

Aunt Lin's son went to a vocational college on Nanwai Island. Given what happened, she was quicker to think than the average person.

It was identified very quickly.

This clay sculpture!

Everyone looked over, and Jiang Dai, who hadn't yet retracted the cat shadow, curiously spun it around before whispering in He Zhou's ear, "They've overlapped."

"what?"

"this."

She gestured with her hand, her eyes wide and round: "Clay sculpture, and the clay sculpture over there."

"They were stacked together."

...

They were stacked together?

He Zhou hadn't figured it out yet.

But in a flash, he suddenly understood: "You mean, the items here and the items there happen to be in the same place, creating a resonance?"

"Uh-huh!"

Jiang Dai looked delighted and even pulled out some jerky to hand over: "You're smart! Meow's happy!"

He Zhou took the jerky with a wry smile, but his scalp immediately tingled.

After putting everything together, he arrived at a conclusion that surprised even himself.

Two worlds overlapped.

Therefore, items placed in the same location that have a certain connection or similar attributes will resonate to some extent, forming special items.

In the past, special items were not placed at this anchor point for a long time, but were moved around, just like mobile charging stations. They were only brought over for charging occasionally, so the impact was not significant.

But because this clay sculpture hasn't been moved for a long time, it's like a piece of chewing gum stuck between two worlds.

It forcibly shortened the distance between the two worlds in this vicinity.

And there is clearly more than one such special item.

Almost instantly, He Zhou remembered the special item buried in the park that his childhood friend Jin Xiaopang had sent him from their old haunt.

"hiss……"

"Is there a trap here?"

He Zhou felt a chill run down his spine.

No!
