"What should we do? Tell the higher-ups that a fight has broken out and it's out of control."

"Captain, this isn't enough. We need to at least investigate the cause of this brawl before we can give an explanation."

You and I were talking at the same time, and the patrol captain was feeling overwhelmed.

There was no other way. This was related to his work in Wuhou City, and even more so to whether he could earn enough food for his family.

If he fails to handle his duties well, his superiors will directly fire him.

If I can’t earn enough food, my family…

The patrol leader said: "It's too chaotic inside. We can't control it, but these people can control it. Immediately establish a safe zone and maintain order."

"If they want to fight and kill, let them keep fighting and killing. Once they're done, we can control them."

Upon receiving the order, the patrol members immediately took action, setting up checkpoints on the streets, calming down the frightened vendors and pedestrians who were fleeing in all directions, and settling them down to prevent greater chaos.

You know, the urban area is very congested.

Once the chaos cannot be controlled, it is very easy to cause a stampede, and then they will really lose their jobs.

A few minutes later, a patrolman came running over to report: "Captain, we've been told to maintain order. As long as there's no stampede, there's no need to investigate the cause. We'll have someone responsible."

The patrol team members were confused after hearing this.

When did the people above become so easy to talk to?

The patrol leader asked, "Does it really say that?"

The team member nodded: "Yes."

The patrol leader looked confused, but when he saw the crowded crowd, he came to his senses: "Then maintain order and call the brothers who are on leave over."

The team members immediately went to notify.

In the Wuhou City Defense Department, the bald user looked at Xia Xiaoan and Lin Jiujiu on the screen and muttered, "Their authority is higher than mine. How can I control them?"

The only hope now is that Su Miao didn’t come.

If Su Miao came, I wonder how many people would die here.

However, for some considerations, he immediately reported the situation here to the Qilian Shelter.

If necessary, let the shelter provide a safety net to prevent larger accidents.

……

Zhang Qian looked back every few steps and safely followed Xia Xiaoan and Lin Jiujiu to the shop at No. 6 West Street, District 11.

She couldn't understand why the stalkers started fighting each other.

But at least we arrived safely.

"is it here?"

Xia Xiaoan pointed to the small shop in front and asked.

The shop was built by driving some wooden piles into the ground and covering it with rainproof cloth.

The door is made of woven reed bamboo tied with hemp rope.

These reeds are already rotten and it looks like they won't last long.

There is a big stone near the door with the word "Shop" carved crookedly on it and painted with an unknown red pigment, and that's it.

Zhang Qian nodded: "Yes, it's here."

Xia Xiaoan and Lin Jiujiu looked at each other and said nothing.

Zhang Qian walked in front and entered the dim shop. There was a dim solar lamp in the shop, illuminating a few shabby counters and the small commodities displayed on the counters.

There was a chair behind the counter, a small table with many bottles and cans on it, and a bowl that looked dirty but was actually relatively clean after being washed with ice.

Hearing someone coming in, the door cloth inside the shop was lifted, and a lady in her sixties came out.

"What do you want to buy? Look around for yourself, and when you've chosen, tell me..."

As soon as the proprietress finished speaking, she noticed Zhang Qian lifting her cloak.

She showed a look of surprise and said, "Zhang Qian, are you still alive?!"

Zhang Qian stared at the boss lady's eyes, her eyes red. "They said this was related to you. I never believed it, but I didn't expect it to be true. Why? Do you know? They are all dead."

The proprietress opened her mouth, then revealed a look of disgust: "What does it have to do with me? Go away, don't try to scam me."

Zhang Qian was furious: "You!"

The lady boss retorted, "What do you mean? Look at you, you're a money-loser."

Zhang Qian said, "Give it back to me. I know it's with you."

The lady boss said, "What is that? I don't have it here. Get lost. I'm getting annoyed just by seeing you."

Zhang Qian stared at the proprietress. She wanted to curse, but she couldn't think of any good words. She wanted to teach her a lesson, but she couldn't beat her. When she thought of the dead, she began to cry in grievance.

The proprietress picked up the broom beside her, intending to chase them away. However, upon seeing Xia Xiaoan and Lin Jiujiu in their cloaks, she slammed the broom to the ground and said, "Why are you crying? Get out of here! I need to sweep the floor."

Zhang Qian cried and said, "Give me back my things, and then I'll leave."

The proprietress scolded, "Are you deaf? I said there's nothing, and you're really trying to extort money from me?"

Seeing Zhang Qian crying and shouting and refusing to leave, the proprietress became a little anxious.

She looked at Xia Xiaoan and Lin Jiujiu and said, "This is your friend, right? Take her away and stop bothering me here. I still need to do business in this store."

Lin Jiujiu was confused and didn't understand the specific situation, so he didn't express his opinion.

Theoretically, Xia Xiaoan would help in this situation, but Xia Xiaoan just watched. Is there something behind this?

Anyway, let's start an internal voice call to ask about the situation.

【Lin Jiujiu】: "Xiao An, what's going on?"

[Xia Xiaoan]: "Zhang Qian thought the boss lady had harmed her and everyone else, but in reality, she was the one who tried to save them, but failed. In the end, only Zhang Qian survived."

"According to the boss lady's plan, Zhang Qian shouldn't have come back. If she hadn't come back, she would have had a chance to survive. But Zhang Qian came back, and all those who died died in vain."

"Even now, the boss lady is still trying to pretend to distance herself from Zhang Qian and get her to leave quickly. She's even made plans to die together with the Abyss Organization's ability users to buy time."

【Lin Jiujiu】: "Ah?"

[Xia Xiaoan]: "Their emotions are too volatile, and their thoughts are very confused. That's probably the situation."

[Lin Jiujiu]: "Is it the Abyss Organization that's targeting Zhang Qian?"

Xia Xiaoan: "Well, the news I got from the boss lady is that Zhang Qian possesses the extremely rare Heart of Light. The Abyss Organization wants to use Zhang Qian as a living sacrifice, and during the sacrifice, they want to dig out Zhang Qian's heart and offer it to the Abyss Evil God."

"This heart was specifically requested by the evil god worshipped by the Abyss Organization."

Lin Jiujiu: "Don't the Qilian Shelter know about this?"

[Xia Xiaoan]: "The shelter was tied up in various issues, especially in terms of information. By the time the higher-ups got the news, the incident had already happened."

【Lin Jiujiu】: "What about us?"

[Xia Xiaoan]: "Jiujiu, how about we do something big?"

[Lin Jiujiu]: "Will this be a problem?"

[Xia Xiaoan]: "As long as the evil god doesn't descend, there won't be any problems. Besides, Sister Su Miao specifically asked us to send Zhang Qian back. She must have noticed something. Maybe this is a new trial for us."

【Lin Jiujiu】: "Okay!"

[Xia Xiaoan]: "People from the Abyss Organization are already outside the shop. There are three of them. Pay attention."

[Lin Jiujiu]: "Yeah, locked."

Seeing that Xia Xiaoan and Lin Jiulong were silent and unwilling to take Zhang Qian away, the shop owner became anxious: "Hurry up and leave, or I will call the patrol team, and you will be in trouble."

"If you were caught, you would know what kind of people are in there."

Zhang Qian wiped the tears from her face, her expression firm, and she decided to fight: "Hand over the things! I am Shudao Mountain..."

The proprietress was so angry that she laughed. Just as she was about to say something else, her expression suddenly changed and she said anxiously, "You idiot, get out of here!"

Just as she was about to move, she found that the scene around her changed, and the desolate world before her became empty.

Lin Jiujiu and Xia Xiaoan were a little surprised when they saw the scene in front of them.

Is this a formation?

In the distance, three cloaked users with special abilities slowly walked out. "The officiant said that the Heart of Light would return here today. I didn't expect it to be true."

"And you, do you think we will really believe you if you pretend to join the Abyss?"

"Jie Jie Jie."

Chapter 411: Can the witch Su Miao block the evil god’s wrath?

2024-08-30

When the proprietress saw the Abyss Priest breaking in, a look of despair appeared on her face.

She knew these people would arrive quickly, but she didn't expect them to arrive so quickly, so quickly that she had no time to make any preparations.

After all, she didn't expect Zhang Qian to come back, and to come back so soon.

"You rat-headed scumbag! At least two of you will die today!"

The proprietress pressed her hands together, and the broom in her hands disappeared, replaced by two electromagnetic long knives.

Electric light flashed on the electromagnetic long knife, and the dark red bloodstains indicated that these two knives had killed many people.

"Jie Jie Jie."

The leading Abyss Priest raised a hand.

Tentacles, to be exact, he used them to lift his cloak, revealing an octopus-like face and extremely strange eyes.

"Want to show your face? Then I'll show you my face."

"My name is Black Snake."

The dense tentacles twisted and danced on the priest's body, looking extremely disgusting.

The appearance of the black snake priest really disgusted Xia Xiaoan and Lin Jiujiu.

After introducing himself, he politely put his hood back on.

As a villain, I really don’t know whether this is civilized, polite, or something else.

"This is Black Fox, and this is Black Dog."

The Black Snake Priest then introduced the two Abyss Priests beside him.

This behavior is puzzling.

"You are Black Snake?!"

The proprietress's expression changed again and again. She suddenly remembered something and shouted, "Zhang Qian, run away!"

Zhang Qian became more and more confused, and she could hardly understand the situation.

"Where can I escape to now?"

The Black Fox Priest moved.

He rushed straight towards Zhang Qian.

The proprietress moved even faster. With just a slight shift in position, she appeared in front of Zhang Qian and took the initiative to kill the Black Fox Priest.

One strike, two strikes, three strikes, the proprietress and the black fox priest fought three moves.

"you……"

The proprietress suddenly felt weak all over, stepped back dozens of steps, thrust her two swords into the ground, and barely stood up with the support of the two swords.

"Actually, I'm a bit of a jerk."

The Black Fox Priest lifted his hood, revealing a large moth-like face covered with fine scales.

This face looks more abstract and disgusting.

Lin Jiujiu wanted to take action.

She looked at Xia Xiaoan: "Xiaoan?!"
