Burke Region.

The main city of Wheat City.

Rumors have spread all over the streets.

Legend has it that man-eating monsters appear at night to pick out people who walk at night.

It's approaching evening.

Shops closed early, and people rushed home.

Panic has spread, severely affecting the functioning of the city. For the safety of the city, the mayor issued a curfew and sent a security team to get the people wandering the streets to hurry home before evening.

The nearby Catholic church was also used as a relief house, and the homeless were placed in it.

"Has it reached this point now?"

Inside a hotel.

Han Qingluo lowered the curtains and shifted his gaze back to the room from the street where there were almost no people, "Even if it's daytime now, there is almost no figure on the street, it's terrifying!" ”

As she spoke, a post-apocalyptic scene appeared in her mind, a deserted street, the wind whipped up confetti on the ground, and a depression.

Monsters have taken over the entire world, leaving only a small group of elites to survive resistance in the safe fortress, including her......

Han Qingluo patted his forehead introspectively, thinking about what time it was, and still thinking nonsense.

"So, in order to avoid conflict, our plan has to be carried out after the security team has been closed."

Galo said as he wiped his sword clean, preparing for tonight's operation, and it seemed that he was looking forward to tonight's "ghost" hunt.

"The most critical person tonight." Jue said and looked at Lilian, "Lilian, you have to be mentally prepared in advance, the core and most critical of our plan is you, you have to foresee the actions of the 'ghost' in advance, and then inform us." ”

Lilian on the side folded her hands, looking very nervous, and she nodded solemnly: "Okay, I will definitely do my best not to drag everyone down!" ”

As her first protector, Galo also needs to give her spiritual care, he walked to Lilian's side, and put a big palm on Lilian's shoulder with a sense of security: "Don't be afraid, I will always protect you!" ”

After receiving Galo's promise, Lilian, who had been nervous, finally had a smile on her face for the first time in a day.

"And Han Qingluo as—"

"As a bait, keep a high level of mental attention at all times!" After interrupting Jue's words, Han Qingluo smiled and introduced his mission, "Take advantage of the 'ghost' to mistake me for an ordinary human being, and let my vigilance down." Grab it in close quarters! ”

"Also, depending on the situation, you must focus on your own safety, don't be reckless!" Jue's expression was serious, "You know, if you are scratched or bitten by it, you will also become a zombie." ”

Han Qingluo showed an indifferent look, naughtily pulled the high collar to reveal the iron ring wrapped around his neck, and then lifted his sleeves, and on his arm were countless small iron rings put together to form an arm guard.

Slap your chest again, making a hard armor sound.

For the sake of planning, she was also fully armed and prepared.

"Don't worry, I'll protect myself!"

"I believe in you!"

Jue was also amused by her appearance, but she was still a little uneasy, and repeatedly told her to be careful.

Seeing her like this, Galo on the side couldn't help but joke: "You have a good mentality, you're going to face the 'ghost' tonight, aren't you afraid?" Don't be scared to pee your pants then, wow wow hide in my arms and cry! ”

Han Qingluo handed Jia Luo a disdainful look: "Just shut up and obediently watch my wonderful performance tonight!" ”

She knew that Galo was trying to regulate her mood and didn't want the atmosphere to be too serious, after all, tonight's "ghost" hunt plan had a certain risk, and she was the one with the biggest risk.

Among the four of them, Lilian has no combat power, so she can only retreat to the back row as an assistant, and Jue and Galo are blood clans, and the "ghosts" they definitely don't dare to rashly come out to attack them, and they can only secretly ambush them.

Then, the arduous task of this bait can only be undertaken by her, a human being, and a man with a little self-preservation ability.

Garlo snorted contrivedly and continued to examine his weapon with a smile on his face. He handed Lillian a dagger he had with him.

"When the time comes, if I'm no longer with you, and something is near you, you will stab it with this!"

He held her hand coldly, and Lilian could feel the heavy dagger in her hand, as cold as his, but it warmed her heart at this time.

Lilian clenched the dagger and received it in her sleeve, "Thank you, Lord Earl." ”

"Call me Galo from now on, it's weird to call me Lord Earl."

Galo stroked her head like a loving sister.

"Good ......"

Lillian lowered her head, a smile on her lips, and her heart began to beat wildly again, and every time he made gentle physical contact, she felt joy and excitement.

Everything is ready for the night.

……

Night, as promised.

Shortly after the whistle sounded for the vigilantes to assemble.

The window of a hotel quietly opened, and two figures jumped out from within.

Being held in Jueheng's arms, Han Qingluo was still a little embarrassed.

Obviously, the building of the hotel is not high, and she can climb out by herself, but Jue still insists on taking her out of the building, because she is afraid that she will accidentally fall and hurt her and affect the plan.

The curfew began.

There was not a single figure on the street.

Even the wildcats seemed to have vanished, and the whole city was plunged into an infinitely eerie dead silence like a dead city.

A day earlier, during their stamping, they had discovered a huge cemetery in the city.

According to the characteristics of "ghosts", they preliminarily determined that the probability of "ghosts" appearing in the cemetery would be relatively high. Therefore, the target point of the implementation of the plan is set in the cemetery.

Because of the curfew, the cemetery has closed early.

Han Qingluo needs to be used as bait to repeatedly swing around the cemetery, while Jue, Jia Luo and Lilian hide not far away and wait to be answered.

Planning begins.

Looking at Han Qingluo, who was starting to act not far away, Jue asked Lilian to start concentrating, because every moment is not to be relaxed, and maybe in the next second, the "ghost" will appear.

Although he knew that he had to wait for the "ghost" to take the bait, it was quite difficult to wait in the unknown, and every minute and second, Han Qingluo felt that it was extremely long.

In order to relieve the tension, she began to hum a song quietly, feeling the autumn wind blowing on her face in the evening, and her eyes glanced around from time to time.

Even a scrap of paper on the ground blown by the wind would make her heart tighten, and her current state was big and frightened.

In a cold and nervous state, cold sweat began to break out in her palms.

……

The monsters hidden in the depths of the cemetery smell the scent of the night.

The stone door of the tomb leading to the "hell" slowly opened again with a faint grinding sound......

The first "ghosts" to crawl out seemed to smell the scent of humans and seemed excited, since the city entered the curfew, it was difficult for them to easily catch the puppets on the streets at night.

Inside the tomb, seven or eight figures crawled out one after another, and they silently climbed over the tall thorn wall of the cemetery and came to the empty street.

Each of the "ghosts" scattered and began to search for their "prey".

Soon, Han Qingluo, who was wandering around the cemetery, was discovered by them.

Their cloudy eyes radiated excitement, and they all wanted to take Han Qingluo for themselves, and having more puppets was their supreme task and glory.

They scrambled to crawl through the streets, trying to hide their tracks.

……

In the long wait.

Lilian suddenly grabbed Gallo's sleeve tightly.

"The 'ghost' is on the move!"

At this time, Jue threw the prepared stones into the street, and the stones hit the stone slabs with a crisp sound.

This was a signal to remind Han Qingluo to start being vigilant.

Han Qingluo's throat didn't move, he put his hand into the wide robe, and squeezed the dagger hidden inside.

Find a position against the wall to protect your back body, and keep twisting your head to observe the movement on both sides.

And the lurking Jia Luo and Jue, staring at Han Qingluo not far away, all turned into vampires, holding weapons in their hands, and saw the right time to prepare to support her.

The wind was still blowing.

I don't know if I'm too nervous, or if the wind is too loud.

Han Qingluo always felt that the voices in her ears were too mixed, and every sound could make her mistake her for a "ghost".

But when I looked at it again, the streets on both sides were still empty.

Minutes and seconds passed.

Han Qingluo's cold sweat quickly seeped out of his forehead, and the hands in his sleeves were already wet with sweat.

"Whew~"

Another gust of wind.

It blew on her face, but it was wet and smelly.

She froze, pulled out the dagger from her sleeve, and ran forward quickly.

In a short time, there were seven or eight rapidly crawling figures above her head crawling along the walls and onto the street.

The figures rose from the ground.

"She seems to have discovered us, huh? Hey, hey, hey! ”

A hoarse, cold voice rang out, and it turned to its companion.

"This woman is mine!"

Another voice sounded, and as soon as the words fell, it immediately took a step and rushed towards Han Qingluo.

Han Qingluo pulled out his knife and was about to fight.

One of his companions jumped out and kicked the guy who wanted to strike first.

"I'm going to decide this puppet, none of you can rob it!"

looked at the seven or eight "ghosts" in front of him, and they were actually fighting for a prey, and they had a plan in their hearts.

"Hey, don't quarrel, if any of you wins, I'll go with whoever you want!"

Her voice instantly attracted the attention of the "ghosts".

"Are you trying to provoke us to kill each other? Be a clever guy! ”

A "ghost" who seemed to be the leader sneered disdainfully.

All right!

The carving insect skills are still recognized!

It seems that these "ghosts" are not stupid at all!

Han Qingluo smiled bitterly: "It's a pity, I was actually seen through by your little cleverness!" ”

In the next second, fierceness flashed in his eyes, and he threw the dagger in his sleeve directly at one of the "ghosts".

These "ghosts" had never encountered a prey like Han Qingluo who would resist, and they all let down their guard.

"Poof!"

The dagger spun through the air and plunged directly into the chest of a "ghost".

This sudden scene made the remaining "ghosts" not react, and the subtle whistling sound of sharp weapons rubbing the air sounded one after another.
