Chapter 986 Race against time

July 22, 10:20 pm.

For Netdai Shinpei and Shadow, this is the starting line.

Duanmu Huai's worry is not unnecessary. After learning about Duanmu Huai's existence, the shadow that was killed must hope to load the file again by killing Netdai Shenping, thereby giving himself more time to deal with Duanmu Huai's sudden appearance. The enemy emerges. As for Duanmu Huai, he naturally didn't want to be pushed back again - he worked so hard to get to the door of the BOSS, and then the server rolled back and directly released the copy. There is nothing more disgusting than this.

When Duanmuhuai went to find BOSS's hometown, Wangdai Shenping and others who stayed in the school also faced a problem.

Of course they can hide in the school and wait until Duanmuhuai kills the BOSS, but...

"I'm worried that the other party will jump over the wall in a hurry."

Wangdai Shenping looked dignified.

"We know the other party's plan, and the other party now knows that we have a powerful helper here, but the problem is - there is only one person in this helper."

"You mean, it's possible for the other party to split off more shadows, attack other people in the town, and then replace them?"

Nanfang Hizuru immediately understood what Amidai Shinpei meant, and the latter nodded.

"Yes, we all know that the festival is very important to the other party. Because the festival is the time when there are the most people, and that guy can regain his strength by devouring everyone in one go through the festival, but now , I'm worried that she might not be able to wait for the festival..."

"Eating with great pleasure is eating, and eating with small bites is also eating..."

"Yes, Mr. Duanmu is indeed powerful, but because of this, Bo Tao is more likely to choose a roundabout way - after all, her goal is just to eat enough people to gain strength. If she cannot wait until after the festival, then it is very likely that she will I will take action directly tonight...!"

Having said this, Amidai Shinpei clenched his fists. He had experienced that nightmare festival and knew how the other party ate. The shadow killed the body, then replaced the body, and then melted and merged with the shadow named Bo Tao. The reason why I chose the festival is because there are the most people at the festival and I can eat them all in one sitting.

But now, because of the existence of Duanmu Huai, Bo Tao may not wait for the festival anymore - she may even worry that she will not survive tonight!

In this case, the best way is to send out a large number of shadows to kill and devour the residents of the town. Although there were not as many people as there were at the festival, Bo Tao could at least recover a certain degree of strength in this way. Otherwise, with her current level of weakness, it would be a dead end for her to fight against Duanmu Huai.

"Miss Christie."

Amishiro Shinpei looked at Mary sitting next to him with a serious expression.

"We have a plan..."

"plan?"

"Yes, we want to protect this town and the people in this town! I understand your intention to stay here, but... I can't just watch everyone die!"

"this……………"

After hearing Amishiro Shinpei's request, Mary thought for a moment and then stood up.

"Okay, I understand, I can help."

After all, she didn't want to see innocent people sacrificed either.

While Wangdai Shenping and others were taking action, Duanmu Huaize... well, was stuck at the sewer entrance.

"I said I can't go down, but I really can't go down..."

Duanmuhuai looked helplessly at the sewer beneath him. At this moment, his entire lower body was in the sewer opening, and the part above the waist was stuck outside - well, if he couldn't go down, he couldn't go down.

"This place is really..."

Duanmu Huai looked around. It was already late at night. The town had already fallen into silence, and most people had fallen asleep. Duanmuhuai stood up from the sewer entrance, took a deep breath, then raised his fist and pointed it at the ground in front of him.

"Forget it, just smash it open! What a waste of time!"

As he spoke, Duanmuhuai clenched his fist and smashed it hard against the ground!

"boom-------!!!"

For a moment, the earth shook.

The entire island shook violently at this moment, and lights lit up in the dark town.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

"Is it an earthquake?"

"It's not a tsunami!"

For the Japanese, earthquakes are a common occurrence, but the sudden shaking still frightened them. Fortunately, everyone is professional when it comes to earthquake evacuation. Although we didn’t know why this earthquake happened, everyone still hurriedly walked out of their homes and went to the designated place to take refuge.

Of course, Duanmu Huai didn't care about this. He raised his head, looked at the big smashed hole in front of him with satisfaction, and nodded.

"Very good, you can go down now."

Having said this, Duanmu Huai jumped into the hole.

"……………How is this going?"

At the same time, Amidai Shinpei and others looked outside in confusion. They originally planned to take the initiative to prevent the residents of the town from being killed by the shadows. But I didn't expect that there was a sudden earthquake just now, and everyone ran to the school to take refuge!

Now, everyone is gathered together, so there is no need to worry!

"Uh... it was probably Mr. Duanmu who did it."

Mary broke out in a cold sweat. She could imagine what Duanmuhuai had done, but she didn't expect that the other party would actually do it.

"Mr. Duanmu? Are you talking about the earthquake just now? How is this possible?!"

Everyone was even more surprised when they heard Mary's answer, but Mary did not explain it - after all, it was not easy to explain their origins to these people.

"In short, the crowd is gathered here now, so if those shadows want to kill the main body, they will definitely sneak in, so what we have to do next is very simple..."

"But finding shadows is no easy task."

The diamond-shaped window opened and said, of course, shadows are not indistinguishable. Although from the appearance, the shadows are almost exactly the same as the person, they have a weakness-their body is a shadow, so when others step on their shadows, the shadows will Instinctively avoid.

But now that there are so many people here, it is simply impossible to distinguish them one by one.

"That's nothing to worry about."

Mary shook her head, then looked at the crowd outside, her eyes wide open—the golden right eye was emitting a faint light at this moment.

"Just follow my instructions and act."

The man blended quietly into the crowd, hiding in the dark, staring at his own body. The latter had no idea that his death was coming. After walking around the gym, he yawned and went out to smoke.

There's no one around, right now!

The man held the fruit knife in his hand and secretly left the gym while others were not paying attention. He knew that the other person had gone to the back of the gym. As long as he followed him and killed the main body, he would be able to become his true self!

"Boooooooh!!"

However, the moment the man touched the corner of the wall, the sound of breaking wind suddenly sounded, and then nails shot out quickly, nailing the opponent's shadow reflected on the wall!

"Woo————!"

Just as the nail hit the shadow on the wall, scars suddenly appeared on the man's body. Before the shadow could react, Nanfang Hiyori rushed over as fast as he could, swinging the hammer in his hand hard and hitting it hard. It hit the wall where the shadow's head was.

"ah-----!"

The moment Nanfang Hizuru's hammer hit the shadow's head, the man screamed, and then his head exploded instantly, and he disappeared in a moment.

"Very well, Miss Southern."

Mary, who was standing on the second floor of the gymnasium, withdrew her gaze and looked at the crowd below again.

"Next, there's the aunt still wearing white pajamas..."

In front of Golden Eyes, no matter whether they are shadows or illusions, they can be seen clearly.

There are no secrets.

"boom-----!"

While Mary and others were hunting the shadows that had blended into the crowd, Duanmu Huai was also fighting with the shadows in the sewer.

"Oh, it really feels better to have a real fight!"

Looking at the baby monsters in front of him that were larger than the average adult, Duanmu Huai showed a cruel smile. He punched out, directly smashing the baby monsters in front of him into pieces, and then rushed forward like an angry bull. ——Dozens of shadow monsters emerged from the darkness in all directions and pounced on Duanmuhuai. However, their actions were meaningless, and they failed miserably as if they were hit by a speeding train.

"It's so naive for a monster of this level to want to stop me!"

Duanmu Huai punched out again, smashing the shadow monster in front of him into pieces. At the same time, he stepped down with his right foot. With Duanmu Huai's movement, the entire sewer suddenly trembled again, and the surrounding ground instantly shattered and exploded, and those shadows The monster was also wiped out.

"Hmph, that's all."

After glancing at the annihilated monsters around him, Duanmuhuai snorted and continued walking forward.

Because Netdai Shenping and the others had visited the BOSS's lair once before, Duanmuhuai also easily found the way to the BOSS's lair. only……………

"You want to stop me just because of this?"

Looking at the wall of black shadows that sealed the entire hole in front of him, Duanmu Huai clenched his right hand again.

"Do you think you can stop the Inquisition?!"

Duanmu Huai opened his mouth and roared, and at the same time punched forward again!

"boom-----!!"

The moment Duanmuhuai's fist hit the thick black shadow wall, the latter immediately erupted and scattered, and the flames of destruction burned with it, completely defeating it in the blink of an eye.

The wall of black shadow shattered like a bubble, and in front of Duanmuhuai was a huge hole. At the end of the cave, a white-haired girl wearing a red kimono was sitting there paralyzed, staring at Duanmuhuai in horror - the shadow behind her spread out like an ink stain, almost covering the entire cave.

"I see, you are the true body."

Duanmu Huai clenched his fists and slowly walked towards the white-haired girl in front of him.

"No, don't come over..."

The white-haired girl in a red kimono trembled and collapsed on the ground, staring at Duanmuhuai in horror. She looked so pitiful, weak, and helpless at this moment. That cute face was full of fear and sadness. However, Duanmu Huai had no idea about the reaction of the girl in front of him.

He had already heard from Shinpei Amidai that shadows would first print other people's bodies and then kill them so that they could become their own bodies - that is to say, no matter how cute or pitiful this girl is, she is not She herself, and what was inside her body was just a squirming mass of remnants of the old rulers from the abyss of the stars!

"Lowly monster."

Walking in front of the white-haired girl, Duanmuhuai stared at her indifferently, and then stretched out his hand.

"Face your fate. There is only one ending for you, and that is... destruction!"

"No, no, don't come here...save me...save me ahhhhh!!"

Seeing Duanmuhuai reaching for her hand, the white-haired girl finally couldn't suppress the panic in her heart and screamed loudly.

"Wow!"

At this moment, behind Duanmu Huai, a black shadow suddenly appeared. It raised its four arms, held the long knife in its hand tightly, and stabbed Duanmu Huai hard!

“Shua————!!”

The sharp long knife stabbed forward and hit Duanmu Huai's back. The moment it hit Duanmu Huai's body, the sharp and sharp blade broke instantly.

"How can it be?!"

Seeing this scene, the shadow was shocked, but before it had time to react, Duanmuhuai turned around and stretched out his hand to grab its head.

"I didn't expect there was another one."

Looking at the four-clawed monster he had captured, Duanmu Huai sneered - he had killed a four-clawed shadow monster at school before. According to Amidai Shinpei, the man inside seemed to be Miyaji Yankiri of the shrine. Duanmu Huai originally thought that there was only one four-clawed monster, but now it seemed that the other party was somewhat interesting.

"You, what on earth are you..."

Being grabbed by Duanmuhuai, the four-clawed monster opened its eyes wide open at this moment. The four eyes on its head opened wide and stared at Duanmuhuai fiercely - it was sure that the guy in front of it was definitely not a human being. Definitely not a shadow! Where has someone been stabbed with a knife and been fine?

No, not only was it okay, the knife even broke!

"This has nothing to do with you."

Duanmu Huai withdrew his gaze. He would not be like those stupid BOSSs who would kindly introduce themselves before killing the opponent, as if he wished he could tell all his tricks - so he shook his right hand and directly Crush the opponent's head. Then he threw the useless corpse aside.

"Plop."

The headless corpse fell heavily to the ground. Seeing the tragic death of her companion, the white-haired girl couldn't help but tremble. And when she raised her head again, what she saw was Duanmuhuai's ferocious smile.

"Okay, it's your turn next... Don't worry, you will have a very painful death."

"No, no, ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

At this moment, the girl's desperate screams echoed throughout the cave.
