The third continent, the new capital.

In a secluded underground facility, two men groped their way along the edge.

Judging by the tunnel-shaped semi-circular stone roof and the dirty water flowing along the main trunk, this is a sewer somewhere in the new capital.

The sewers in Xindu are built very large, with one-man wide cement paths on both sides, which are usually reserved for repair personnel.

But the two men were clearly not dressed as maintenance workers.

They wore rubber gloves, tattered overalls, and baskets full of plastic bottles filled with yellow liquid.

Only some of them were full, and there were many empty bottles that were not filled, and they looked like the "goods" they had just found.

Even in the summer, the sewers are still bone-chilling, with a mixture of odors and turbid cool air. The man walking behind looked at the darkness in front of him, and shivered fiercely.

"Big ...... Big brother, why don't we come here, you see this oil is everywhere, isn't it the same where it is poured? ”

His words were not loud, but the echo traveled far down the water in the tunnel.

"You know!" The eldest brother's shouting and scolding came from the front: "The more you go inside, the clearer the color, and the less easy it is to be seen, you know?" ”

"It doesn't matter if he's deep or clear, doesn't he have to process it in the end......"

"What are you muttering? Don't want to do it anymore? ”

"Do it, don't say it!"

The man sighed and took a step to follow his eldest brother. It's just that the more I walk, the more I muttered in my heart.

He arched his nose vigorously: "Big brother, do you smell a smell of blood......

"Isn't it normal to have blood in the sewers? I said Sixth, you didn't go down the well with me on the first day, why are there so many things going on today? ”

"No, big brother, you smell it, it really smells of blood."

"Big brother" stopped and sniffed vigorously a few times: "Hmm...... Don't say it, the smell is really big. I guess which restaurant slaughtered a few more animals, right? ”

After that, the eldest brother pointed to a dry bone not far away that was floating along the current as if to prove his opinion: "Look, it is probably a cow or a pig." ”

The younger brother named Lao Liu became more and more frightened the more he looked at it, this smell didn't look like animal blood......

"Okay, okay, look at your scared look, it's really useless." The eldest brother looked at the sixth child disdainfully, "Then let's go here today, you are here, and I will go over there." ”

Lao Liu breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly put the basket behind him on the ground, pinched his nose and poured the empty bottle into the oil foam on the edge of the water.

He tried not to pay attention to the half-cut bones on the water, and his hands and feet were extremely nimble.

The remaining empty bottles were quickly filled. The sixth put them together: "Big brother, I've got it done here." You ......"

The sixth man raised his head, and the rest of the words stopped at his lips.

The eldest brother's basket was still placed at the water's edge not far away, but the man was gone.

"You, don't scare me! Big brother, big brother! ”

The sixth man had the courage to shout a few words, but there was no reply, and there was an echo in the huge tunnel.

In the basket left, most of the empty bottles remained.

Lao Liu's heart was furious, his body shook violently a few times, and he was about to turn around and leave, when the scene in front of him made him speechless with fear.

Out of the darkness came a shadow, unkempt and human, but crawling on the ground.

Its entire body was shrouded in a wide robe, its face obscured by its tousled hair, and its body was covered in blood.

What frightened the sixth the most was that this "thing" had a severed hand in its mouth.

"Hee-hee." The shadow let out a shrill grin.

"Ahh Ghost, ghost!! ”

The sixth child was so frightened that he didn't want the oil he had just stolen, threw away the basket on his back, turned around and ran.

Unfortunately, the shadow was faster than him, and a strong force came from behind him, and the whole person was dragged into the darkness in the scream.

The dark sewers were quiet again.

Then, a male voice suddenly appeared and broke the silence:

"You're really not a picky eater."

Where the sixth child had just disappeared, a man suddenly appeared in place.

His appearance was so abrupt that his neat formal outfit was out of place with the filth in the sewers.

The man's voice was mature and calm, with a sense of pride of a superior person.

He wears a mask on his face with a hand drawn on it that pulls a puppet with a string.

From the depths of the darkness came the sound of Si Yao. The "shadow" dragged its broken body slowly, reaching out and brushing the messy hair on his head, revealing a small face covered in blood.

She is a "doll".

It seems that she did not die under Chu Yu's sword.

But it is not known what method she used to escape.

"If I want to be a picky eater, I have to be picky." The doll spoke nonchalantly in that strange accent: "Why are you here, 'puppeteer'?" ”

"I'm here to inform you." The puppeteer replied lightly: "The Lord has ordered that all the internal members sent abroad in Kukai return immediately. ”

"Return? It's funny. The doll tilted her head, and a blood scab fell from the top of her head. Let me guess, could it be that the old ghosts above have completely broken with the Celestial Alliance? ”

"I'm just here to inform you."

"Don't be so cold. We are also colleagues anyway, thinking about the old feelings, dear colleagues, can you give me a thorough understanding? The doll winked at each other.

The puppeteer of "......" remained silent.

"Okay, okay, that's a disappointment." The doll puffed out her face angrily, "And what? You've come all the way to inform me of this? ”

"Also, the organization's punishment for you."

The doll's heart jumped violently, and she was about to retreat when her eyes suddenly lit up.

At some point, the puppeteer took out a delicate instrument shaped like a round mirror, and a blue cone-shaped light radiated from the mirror, enveloping the doll's body in an instant.

"Ahh Damn, how can you have such a thing! My spiritual powers! ”

A piercing scream erupted from the doll's throat, and under the influence of the blue light, her body froze in place, and all movements were sealed.

The puppeteer stretched out a finger, and a thin silver line loomed in mid-air against the blue light.

"Puppeteer! Why are you qualified to punish me! The two of us are equal! Even punishment won't be your turn! ”

"No, I just got promoted. Just yesterday. ”

The puppeteer's fingers flicked, and with the glow of blood and the howl of the doll, one of her arms was cut off, spun in the air several times, and then landed on the wet ground with a snap.

"Don't forget our precepts." 'Exposing' is a felony. ”

The puppeteer lightly withdrew the silver weapon in his hand, and his cold voice did not have a trace of emotional fluctuations.

"My hand...... Do you know how much blood food I used to fix it back? You're going to have to pay me ......"

"If there is a next time, it will be more than just a hand. This is a warning from the Lord. ”

The puppeteer withdrew the instrument in his hand, and the doll fell to the ground with a painful face.

With that, his figure disappeared in place. His departure was as abrupt as his arrival.

"Whew...... Whew......"

The doll gasped, her expression twisted and hideous, and she hurriedly took her severed hand back.

"You all bully me, you all bully me...... Wait and see, you're all going to pay! ”
