After Mingshu escaped into the bedroom and hid last night, he didn't hear any more noise.

His face didn't look good. The algae must have been caused by the unknown creature last night. This pattern...did he do it on purpose?

All the other teammates' clothing materials were taken away, but only his was still there. He didn't understand what the other party meant.

Mingshu woke up early and there was no one outside the street. He brought a pack of tissue paper and a garbage bag, carefully opened the door and looked around.

He went outside the window and wiped off the algae on the glass with a paper towel.

The transparent glass returned to its original state. Mingshu breathed a sigh of relief and quietly looked around.

The townspeople were all doing their own things. Across the street, a family was watering the flowers with a kettle, and several children carrying snacks ran past laughing.

Now it seems that everything in the town is normal, except that the sky is always gray and there is no sunlight.

It was the same situation yesterday. When the three of them went to the abandoned farm and cemetery, the weather there was better. Once they returned to the town, the sky was dim again.

Mingshu threw the algae in the garbage bag into the trash can on the roadside, and turned around to see the leading NPC standing behind him.

His approach was silent, and Ming Shu, who was already nervous, looked at him warily.

The npc was also looking at Mingshu, looking at him with probing eyes: "You..."

He then showed his usual smile: "Did you sleep well last night?"

"Thank you for your concern," Mingshu said politely: "Not bad."

npc Nodding: "That's good."

He turned around, glanced at Mingshu's house without leaving a trace, and walked away quickly.

After the npc left, Mingshu found a palm-sized pumpkin placed on the handrail in front of his door.

The pumpkin was intact and looked exactly like the one the NPC crushed in front of him yesterday.

Mingshu looked at the NPC's leaving figure, returned to the house, took another garbage bag, and threw away the pumpkin again.

He sent a message to Xia Zhu, and Xia Zhu also said that there was a little pumpkin in front of his door. It was there yesterday, but he didn't care.

The two agreed to meet at the place where they parted last night, and messages kept popping up in the team information along the way.

[In the team] Shan Qi: The same goes for other players. All the supplies have been robbed, and no one can protect them

. [In the team] Shan Qi: It seems that I have to go to the farm again today, but I guess I will also go to the farm in the evening. There are unknown creatures coming to rob

[in the team] Shan Qi: Also, in a house, only one person can enter.

He said that he wanted to enter the house of his companion. When he walked to the door, he couldn't take a step. He took the door's You can enter normally only with the key, but your companions can't get in without the key.

Mingshu paused slightly. The mysterious man who rescued them yesterday also said that they could not live together.

The players didn't know this rule when they first came in. Without him, even if Mingshu and Xia Zhu escaped from the monster, they would not be able to hide safely in the house together, and one person would be forced to stay outside.

It gets dark too early in the town. To be on the safe side, they would have to rush back at six o'clock in the afternoon.

When we arrived at the place where we parted last night, Xia Zhu had already arrived, squatting on the roadside and waiting.

Seeing Mingshu's figure, he immediately approached him: "You didn't bring the wizard robe?"

"No," Mingshu said, "I hid it in the room."

It was not convenient to wear the robe every day, and those unknown creatures, They should only show up at night to steal supplies.

Xia Zhu rolled up his sleeves, revealing several scratches on his arms.

"Those bats are really big," he looked frightened and gestured with his hands, "If I had escaped later, my trachea would have been scratched." The

two fangs found yesterday were gone. , the task needs to be completed again.

So the fact that they found the supplies so smoothly yesterday does not mean that the task can be completed easily.

The two were discussing on the roadside, with many people coming and going, and this was where the two monsters died last night.

Mingshu still remembered that after the monster died, a small amount of blood oozed out from the wound, and the ground was also stained. Now, looking at it, everything was clean, as if what happened last night had never happened.

He looked away, took out half a piece of bread from his pocket and took a bite: "Let's go to the cemetery again." "

I think so too," Xia Zhu responded: "Maybe we have to deal with the bats at night... Bats I'm afraid of the smoke. I'll go to the store and have a look later."

Bats are probably the easiest to deal with. Xia Zhu's luck is pretty good. If he meets a chainsaw murderer like Shan Qi... he doesn't have much chance of winning.

Although it was a good thing that Mingshu's robe was not snatched away, he still had a devil's city to go to, so he might not be safe tonight.

Xia Zhu asked about last night's situation again, but Mingshu hesitated to speak, and finally told him about the algae that appeared on the window glass.

"With a heart pattern?" Xia Zhu's expression was complicated, "Have you...did you see the face of that unknown creature clearly?" There was something in

his words. Mingshu was stunned and immediately denied: "Impossible."

It shouldn't be possible... right? Mingshu intuitively felt that the mysterious person who saved them last night was.

Is there more than one?

Mingshu's expression gradually became serious, and he squeezed the bread in his hand.

But he is afraid of ghosts... and in the previous copy, as long as he confirmed that the NPC was Yuan Chen, he was basically confident in the mission, but this time it was different.

He is in a weird town, he may run into unknown creatures at any time, and he has no clue about the follow-up mission.

Mingshu ate the last bite of bread, and when he looked up, he saw a wet figure with algae on his face under the tree in the distance, staring straight at him.

His expression changed, and he hurriedly stood up from the roadside. In the blink of an eye, the figure disappeared again.

Xia Zhu also stood up: "What's wrong?"

Ming Shu pointed to the opposite street with a pale face: "There was a person standing there just now..."

Xia Zhu didn't see anything, and it was unclear whether Ming Shu was too It was a nervous hallucination, but something really was following him.

"If it's something in the swamp," Xia Zhu looked around vigilantly, "could it be a wizard? Or a wizard's ghost? How to deal with such a thing?"

Ming Shu thought for a moment, then said: "Buy some talismans." Paper?"

With lingering fear, he kept looking at the previous tree, but accidentally discovered another familiar figure standing on the corner at the end of the street, also quietly sizing them up.

It was the NPC who led the way. He seemed to have noticed that Ming Shu had noticed him, and he disappeared in the blink of an eye.

He seemed to be following them. Mingshu felt uncomfortable and immediately pulled Xia Zhu away from the place.

They had to go to the ownerless cemetery again. Shan Qi in the team was no longer with them. Mingshu and Xia Zhu first went to various shops to look around and bought some things that might be useful, and then went to the cemetery to start again. Digging the vampire's fangs.

They did not forget to search for the Devil City, and asked many townspeople along the way, and finally got a clue from a child.

"Amusement park?" Xia Zhu expressed doubt, "Will it be a devil city in an amusement park?"

The child said that there is an amusement park in the north of the town that has been abandoned for more than ten years. There is a place in it called Devil City, which seems to be a former haunted house.

"Go and take a look." Mingshu squeezed the folding knife in his hand, "There are less than two days left."

He bought the knife in the store. Although he didn't know if it would be useful against unknown creatures, at least there was one Psychological comfort.

The main mission is due tomorrow night, and he can't delay any longer.

Xia Zhu found a cardboard box, put the things they bought in it, and headed towards the amusement park with Mingshu.

Strangely enough, most of the places around the town seemed to be abandoned, and the child just now, who was obviously less than ten years old, had known about the Devil's City in the amusement park for more than ten years.

But Mingshu didn't care to delve into this now. The two of them hurried to find the amusement park in the north of the town before two o'clock in the afternoon.

The area around the amusement park is overgrown with weeds and very desolate. The iron railings are rusty. Looking inside from a distance, all kinds of damaged equipment are randomly discarded. The tall Ferris wheel has collapsed in half, and the cable car above is crumbling.

There was no third person nearby. Xia Zhu walked in front, and the two pushed past the railing and entered the amusement park.

The amusement park was very large. After walking for about seven or eight minutes, Mingshu saw a small castle appearing in front of him, with green vines covering the walls.

There are iron railings outside the castle, with a crooked sign hanging on it that reads "Devil City".

Xia Zhu hid the cardboard box containing the things in the bushes nearby, picked up a thick branch, and weighed it in his hand: "Let's go." The surroundings were quiet, the

gate of the Devil City was open, and the inside was in chaos. There is thick dust everywhere, the tiles are covered with stains, and their original appearance is no longer visible.

There were three floors in the castle. The two of them searched the halls and every room in turn, but did not find anything that might be supplies.

"Devil's Tail..." Xia Zhu said to himself, "There seems to be nothing related to the tail."

Mingshu stood in the lobby on the first floor and wiped the stair railing with the tissue he brought with him, revealing the six-pointed star engraved on it.

"Isn't there another devil city here?" Mingshu replied, but everything was quiet behind him, and the sound of Xia Zhu rummaging through the garbage in the corner also disappeared.

He immediately turned around: "Xia Zhu?"

The hall was empty, and Xia Zhu's figure was nowhere to be seen.

It was impossible for Xia Zhu to leave for no reason. Mingshu's heart sank and he shouted a few more times, but there was no response from the castle.

He turned and walked towards the door, wanting to look outside. The heavy wooden door suddenly slammed shut.

Something strange happened suddenly. Mingshu hurriedly stepped forward and pushed the door open. He used all his strength, but the door still didn't move at all.

There were a few "clicks" behind him, accompanied by the sound of some thick liquid stirring.

The light suddenly dimmed, from day to night, the lamps above the head lit up, vaguely covered with a layer of red light, and the surrounding environment began to change.

The thick dust and dirt fell off automatically, revealing the white wall inside, which was covered with blood vessels. If you look closely, it seems to be still undulating, like breathing.

Some bright red liquid slowly seeped to Mingshu's feet. He clenched the knife in his hand and mustered up the courage to turn around.

A circular pit appeared in the center of the hall. The pit was filled with dark red sand, and a dark chair appeared out of thin air above it.

A figure was sitting on the chair. He was unusually tall, with a pair of black horns on both sides of his forehead. There were blue and black blood vessels on his neck and side of his face. His scarlet pupils stared at Mingshu.

Mingshu opened his eyes wide, feeling scared and unbelievable: "You..."

The unknown creature in front of him had a similar appearance to a demon, but his face was extremely familiar to him, at least five points similar to Yuan Chen.

So he is...

Mingshu still has reason. Several Dragon Highnesses and Qingji from the previous dungeon also look like Yuan Chen, but none of them are.

In the uncertain situation, he cannot easily approach the demon in front of him.

The devil put one hand on the armrest of the chair, with bright red liquid dripping from his fingertips. He stared at Mingshu closely: "Fresh sacrifice?"

Being able to speak means that there is still a chance to communicate.

Mingshu hid the knife behind his back and said calmly: "Sorry, I broke in accidentally..." Before

he could finish his sentence, the devil raised his right hand, and Mingshu's body was forced to rise, slowly Move slowly in his direction.

Mingshu couldn't move his limbs and watched helplessly as he was getting closer and closer to the devil. A hand reached out, grabbed his wrist tightly and pulled him forward.

Mingshu fell into the devil's arms and almost dropped the knife in his hand. He hurriedly stabilized his body: "I'm not a sacrifice..." The devil ignored it, brushed the rough

fingertips against the side of Mingshu's neck, and leaned close to his white tender body. Smell lightly on the skin.

"It smells so good." There was a long-suppressed desire in his eyes. "You are so beautiful, it must taste very good."

The tip of his nose was filled with a strong smell of blood. He didn't know whether it came from the mud below or the devil himself. Mingshu was nervous. To the extreme.

He forced himself to calm down. The demon in front of him must be related to the mission. Instead of struggling needlessly, he might as well take this opportunity to find out the information. "

I, I came here to find something," Mingshu didn't dare to move and walked out cautiously. Voice: "Do you know the Devil's Tail?"

"Devil's Tail?"

A hot palm pressed on Mingshu's lower back, caressing it through the clothes, and the Devil paused slightly: "You want my tail?" "

Or, "The devil tightened his arms, got closer to Mingshu, and whispered in his ear: "Want to be my bride?"

Mingshu was stunned: "What... bride?"

Maybe he was in a good mood and took the initiative to show up. The "sacrifice" in the castle was satisfactory in every aspect. The devil raised his hand and a small wooden box flew from the corner behind him.

The wooden box was opened, and inside was a tail as thick as two fingers, completely black, with a surface like fine and smooth leather, and a small triangle at the slightly thinner end.

"Only by becoming my bride can you be qualified to own the Devil's Tail."

The tail was lying quietly in the wooden box and suddenly moved.

It was actually alive. Mingshu was staring at the tail. He was caught off guard and frightened, and then the wooden box slammed shut.

The devil pinched Mingshu's chin and raised it, looking at his face with a scrutinizing look. His tone was ambiguous: "Do you want it?"

Mingshu took a few deep breaths: "...I want it."

He also wanted to ask, to become the devil's bride. What conditions are needed? In short, you must first deceive the tail. If it doesn't work, you can delay it for a while and don't let the devil really eat you.

The devil half-smiled, parted his lips and said, "Okay."

He barely hesitated, and Mingshu almost didn't react.

...You just agreed?

The wooden box fell into Mingshu's hands, and the devil stood up with him in his arms, crossed the mud, took him to the closed door, and put him down.

The devil hugged Mingshu from behind, enveloping him entirely with his tall body.

"Tonight, I will come to you," he kissed the tip of Mingshu's ear, "my bride."

As soon as he finished speaking, he let go of Mingshu, the lights in the hall went out, and the surroundings began to recover.

When everything calmed down, Mingshu looked back and saw that the devil was no longer there.

[Side mission two: Obtain supplies (2/2)]

[Side mission two has been completed! Please go to the backend to check your reward points yourself]

Mingshu held the wooden box and had an unreal feeling. It was too easy to get this tail.

But yesterday, the three of them got the mission supplies so easily, but everything was robbed at night.

The devil said that he would come to him tonight, so he had to find a way to solve the situation at night before he could truly complete his mission.

"Bang, bang, bang -"

"Mingshu?!"

Xia Zhu's anxious voice sounded outside the door. Mingshu pulled the bolt, and the previously closed door was pushed open.

Seeing Ming Shu safe and sound, Xia Zhu breathed a sigh of relief: "Are you okay? I didn't know what happened just now. I was still talking to you, and when I turned around, I went outside, and the door couldn't be opened... "

He almost went back to town to get an axe, but the door opened again inexplicably.

Mingshu shook his head: "It's okay, I...got the tail."

Only then did Xia Zhu see Mingshu holding a wooden box. When he opened it, he saw that there was a tail inside.

This place is not suitable for staying for a long time. The devil may still be watching them from the dark. Mingshu closed the box and said, "Let's go back first.

"

The two walked to the gate of the amusement park and saw a figure standing outside the abandoned iron railings.

The npc had a cold expression and looked at the wooden box in Mingshu's hand: "How did you get it?"

He seemed to be following them in the morning. Mingshu hugged the wooden box tightly: "It doesn't seem to be any of your business."

The npc's face became even darker. Shen snorted coldly: "Give me the thing."

Of course Mingshu couldn't hand over the tail that he finally got, so Xia Zhu stood in front of him: "Why should I give it to you?"

The NPC stopped talking and started talking. He drew a dagger from his body and strode towards the two of them.

Xia Zhu also took out the folding knife she bought from the store. With her other hand, she grasped the branch she picked up earlier. She tilted her head and said to Ming Shu, "You go first."

At this time, a ghost-like figure appeared behind the NPC. He held his head with both hands and twisted it hard.

The sound of broken bones was heard, the npc's neck was twisted, and he immediately lost his breath.

The person wearing a mask was the mysterious person who saved them last night.

He stepped forward and held Mingshu's wrist tightly: "Come on, he will be resurrected."

Mingshu was not sure who he was yet, but subconsciously trusted him. The three of them left the vicinity of the amusement park and hid in a remote place. The alley stopped.

On the way to escape, Xia Zhu kept glancing at the mysterious man and hesitated several times.

It should be safe now, and he finally couldn't help it: "You are..."

Then, he saw the mysterious man take off his mask, and his voice stopped abruptly.

From not long ago to now, Mingshu was the most silent one. He stared blankly at the familiar face in front of him and even breathed softly.

Sang Yin took off his gloves, hugged Mingshu tightly, and sighed: "Why are you crying?"

Mingshu was stunned for two seconds: "I didn't..."

"I received it," Sang Yin interrupted him and held his hand affectionately. He picked up his hand and squeezed it, "Twice."

Mingshu finally reacted and slowly opened his eyes.

He received the crying emoticon he sent a few days ago.
