"It was going well when I got out of the battle with those four guards just now." Babu listened with his eyes closed for a while, the frequency of the abnormal noise outside was much higher than before, which made him sigh calmly, and the voice was overwhelming, "Before I came back, I deliberately walked around the three rooms in the management office, and I could sense that those mutants did not continue to gather towards them, and they should have been thrown away."

"Looks like they did." Monica frowned, just stuck to Babu's side, looked out the window with him, and took out the fluorite ball several times to throw it out, but finally gave up, just shook her head and said, "It's actually us who didn't shake off, and you are on the way back......

"There are so many mutants left in the vicinity that it's hard to tell if they're trending to leave." Babu said with some self-reproach, "It was my mistake, I was careless this time, if I was cautious, I should be able to find that the situation is abnormal when I come back, so that I won't be surrounded by so many monsters before noticing."

"Don't take responsibility for yourself." Monica gave him a blank look and said angrily, "You can't have noticed anything unusual in that environment unless you light it up."

"What are you talking about?" Startled by the sudden movement of the three, Matilda waited timidly until this moment before timidly asking, "Are they chasing me?"

"That's the only explanation, the other four weren't pestered, we were the ones who were pestered." Monica sighed, "But there's one thing you should be happy about, at least your four companions are safe now."

"No, it won't." Matilda stared nervously at the door, "If that's the case, it's been so long, they should have come in."

"The location here is quite special, they don't have intelligence, and if they want to find it by instinct, it will probably take a while." Babu frowned and thought for a moment, then asked, "Monica was right, that's the only possible explanation, Judy, is there any way to achieve this effect, which is to have the mutant stare at someone."

"At least one situation." Judy struggled to her feet with the help of her staff, enduring the pain of the wound and moving her stiff limbs, replying as she moved, "You told me what you told me, just now."

"The mutant in the river?"

"yes, isn't it just staring at the target, whoever takes the bag will star. Since there is a possibility, it cannot be ruled out that there are other possibilities."

"Really." With a wry smile, Babu and Monica exchanged glances and nodded, and Monica returned to Matilda to untie the rope from her.

"So, now you're likely to be the target of the mutants below." Matilda, who had been freed by Monica, kneaded her numb limbs and asked, "You'd better go through the process of being targeted by the mutants, maybe you can find the cause and solve it, so it can save a lot of trouble."

Matilda rubbed her wrists, bit her lip and was silent for a long time, and said with a wry smile, "I'm sorry, you better throw me out."

Monica frowned, "Would you rather die than say?"

Matilda gritted her teeth and nodded, her eyes lowered to look into Monica's eyes.

"She should have been on the edge for the first time from time to time, and judging by her reaction when she was protected before, she should have spent the night on the edge for the first time from time to time." Monica was still struggling with Matilda's attitude, when she heard Babu say leisurely on the side, "And she didn't become the target of all mutants before, day or night, then the biggest possibility is that something abnormal happened this time, causing the situation to change, so that the monsters are targeting you."

Matilda's slightly nervous body shrank back, her mouth closed and she didn't say a word.

"I don't want to say it's okay, some things are easy to guess." Babu didn't even look at Matilda, and said casually to Monica, "What she just said happened at noon, and by the time they came out to look around, it should have been afternoon, and she hadn't become a target at that time, but was attacked at the beginning of the return journey or after nightfall. As for the reason for becoming a target, if it was because she did something special, she should have had an abnormal reaction when she recalled it just now, but she didn't, it seems that she didn't think about it

This kind of thing shows that this is probably done by someone else, that is, someone else has made her a target."

Matilda still didn't speak, but her face had changed.

"Someone wants her dead." Monica listened without saying a word, until Babu finished analyzing everything, then gave an admiring look and said thoughtfully, "But she will come out today, it should have happened suddenly, didn't they come out to look for that statue, such an urgent matter, you must seize every minute, the other party doesn't have a chance to prepare slowly."

"Theoretically, but what if she had planned to come out in the first place? Moreover, the other party also knew that she had planned to come out? So, it's already been done a long time ago, and as for the search for the statue, it's just just in time." Babu looked meaningfully at Matilda and asked Monica, "With such an important task as finding the statue, she can still have something to delay, what can she do?" Of course, it was something that had been planned to be done, and it was supposed to be her biggest secret, and it would not see the light of day, so she would rather die than reveal it to us, am I right, Matilda." ap.

Matilda's face was pale, her lips trembled, and she wanted to explain something, but she couldn't say a word, and finally she could only nod her head in resignation.

"As for what this delay is for her, I think it is likely to be related to the secret of Midnight City that she refused to tell us just now, and we don't need to ask what it is, it is her private matter after all." Babu persuaded softly, "But, Matilda, although we haven't touched the enemy for the time being, it is very likely that the enemy will find a way to come in and attack us in the next moment, and now there are at least six hours before dawn can find a way back to the present world, so there are two choices now, either you find out what you have been done as soon as possible and deal with it in a targeted manner, or you can survive in the torrent of mutants for six or seven hours, whether you can hold it up, it all depends on luck."

"Thank you for your understanding." Matilda's eyes lit up with water, and she said softly, "But I really don't know who you said did to me, I think about the events of the past few days, it's quite normal."

"Then to change the question, who knew you would come out today?" Báb asked, "Since it is a matter that cannot be known, there should not be many people who know about it, but if you think about it, these people have done anything suspicious, we ...... Sizzle."

Babu was interrupted because not far from the window, there was a sudden soft click.

This is on the top of the towering bell tower, outside the window is twenty meters in the air, and the sound comes from below, not far from the height where several people are. Everyone was silenced at the same time, and the Báb silently lifted the tarpaulin from the window, revealing the outside.

It was still pitch black outside the window, nothing could be seen, even the sound of rustling had stopped, and there was absolute silence inside and outside the bell tower. Judy staggered to the window with her staff, leaning on the window and peeking out, there was only an endless thick fog outside, twisting and misting in the darkness, as if hiding countless strange beings.

Judy leaned on the glass, looked out the window intently for a while, never saw anything unusual, she sighed regretfully, and raised her face from the glass in disappointment, but before she could leave the glass, she heard a bang, a vine full of sarcoma suddenly broke through the darkness and fog, and slammed heavily on the window glass and the walls on both sides of the window, making a dull crashing sound, and under the pressure of the vines, the glass creaked, as if it could break at any time.

The sudden impact made several people in the bell tower tremble at the same time, especially Judy, who was startled by her face, subconsciously took two steps back, and the staff in her hand almost smashed the glass, but fortunately she controlled her impulse in time, and let out a sigh of relief.

The vines attached to the glass slid off the glass little by little with a creaking sound, and then a large bush appeared in the window, also clinging to the glass, like a monster lying on the window and looking in, the people in the room did not move, and did not make any sound, and several people even held their breath and looked nervously at the bushes outside the window with wide eyes.

A few seconds, but as long as years, the mutant outside the window slowly began to move, continued to climb upward, and soon disappeared from the window, should

It was in the direction of the clock dial on the roof, until the last tentacle disappeared from the window, and the four people in the room exhaled a breath that they had held for a long time, and the others were fine, Matilda had lost the blood on her face and lips, and fell to the ground.

However, even if she was afraid of this, she still trembled and said, "You, don't, don't worry, I, I won't drag you down, but, anyway, they are staring at me anyway, I will go out and lure them away in a while, if I leave, they should be able to disperse."

"Did you have some misunderstanding?" Matilda's ambivalent reaction made Babu smile playfully, and he stopped asking, and said with a sneer, "What we just said is always trouble, not danger. If you dare to wander around the edges, you won't be frightened by this little monster, we have all killed the leader-level mutants with our own hands, even if there are true gods in multiple territories, we will talk and laugh with her, now it's just a group of ordinary mutants, and you don't need to sacrifice yourself."

"Self-sacrifice for safety, I'm sorry, that's not the philosophy of our Monica and Babu Chamber of Commerce. It's a big deal, and it's a big fuss." Monica stroked her long hair and said brightly in the dark, "If there is a movement, there will be a movement, and what about the endless flow of nearby mutants, just kill them all, as long as all the nearby mutants are emptied, it doesn't matter if we have a bonfire here in the middle of the night." I just hope that the one in the river won't come to join in the fun, it's too destructive, and I'm worried that the building won't be able to hold it."

"Probably not, if Matilda was in its range of activity, it should have come a long time ago, since it hasn't come yet, then it's not a big problem." Judy stared at the sassy Monica a few more times, and said in a somewhat strange tone, "Since you want to vent, remember not to leave the radius of thirty meters around the bell tower. The last time you saw me at my worst, you have to give me a chance to change your impression, this terrain is simply prepared for me, so let me make a big fuss with you here."

"You ...... You don't have to." Matilda's eyes were a little red, and she said with a choked voice, "This has nothing to do with you, you can stay out of it, you have already saved me once, it's enough, there's no need to risk your life to help me, I ......."

"That's not good, you're the loot we kidnapped with great difficulty, if something happens to you, how can we ask for ransom." Babu snorted coldly and smiled, "Besides, who told you that we would risk our lives, we have secret weapons, and there are two sets of them."

While saying this, Babu picked up the beautiful handbag, took out a dozen glass wine bottles from it, and threw the handbag to Monica, and flashed several times with his hands, and a dozen or so bottles disappeared into his white cloth robe as if by magic, and he couldn't see where it was hidden.

Monica also took out two bottles and hung them in the most convenient position on her waist, went to the window where the mutant had just passed, opened the window without hesitation, and threw a long whip upwards like lightning. The mutant was still slowly climbing above, and was suddenly caught by the whip, and before he could react, he was dragged down by a strong force, dozens of vines writhed wildly, and the huge figure crossed the window, quickly disappearing, and then there was a sound on the ground below, and the sound of other mutants moving in the darkness.

"It's a mess. There are two ways to infiltrate, find loopholes to avoid everyone's attention, and finally reach the target location without anyone being discovered, which is one I prefer, but I sometimes use the other, hehe, as long as I kill everyone who sees me, I won't be discovered, this is also considered infiltration, no matter how big the movement is, hehehe." As the mutant fell, Babu was already crouching down on the open window in a strange position, snapping his fingers and chuckling, "Judy, light."

With a click, the searchlight of Donggu Castle was opened by Judy and set up in another window, and the round and thick pillar of light extended straight downward, penetrating the fog and reaching the ground, illuminating a small area of the square, under the illumination of the pillar of light, mutants piled up on the square, and the shadows were full of shadows in the darkness, like a group of demons dancing.

Babu picked up Anna, who had pounced on her, and let out a clear eagle chirp from her mouth, and jumped like a big bird

Into the darkness, behind him, Monica grabbed the safety rope in her hand and jumped as well.

"Roar, I'll do it too."
