Chapter 172 Fog Rises From the Mountains and Seas

Jiangcheng, west outskirts of the city.

On a hilltop, two figures were squatting, looking at the city ahead.

"Sir, do you think Chu Sheng, that rubbish, can really kill the Void Hunter and extract the energy essence?"

A man wearing sunglasses and a suit was standing straight, looking worried.

The person he called "sir" was actually a little girl holding a lollipop.

"Maybe." The little girl's voice was childish, but her tone was a bit old-fashioned.

"I wrote his memory for him, lent him the Thousand Faces Knife, and even sold him two rubs of the Spiritual Transformation Powder."

"If he still can't complete the task under these conditions, then he is really a waste."

"According to his report, there are two people investigating this case, both of whom are students of Longxia College." The man in sunglasses said with a thoughtful look.

"If nothing unexpected happens, he will be able to extract the essence of these two people and send it here today."

"But I still feel very uneasy about him."

"Do you really think that we are staying here this time to wait for him to get the essence of the two hunters?" The little girl suddenly chuckled, her tone quite disdainful.

"Isn't it?" The man in sunglasses was a little surprised.

"Humph, he only has one real purpose." The little girl held a lollipop in her mouth, and there was indifference in the depths of her eyes, "That is to test the new experimental product of [Huitian]."

"What we have to do is to record the experimental results and hand them over to Huitian."

"As for whether the two hunters will die, it doesn't matter to us at all."

"New experimental product!" The man in sunglasses changed his face slightly, as if he thought of something, "Is it the [Crimson Blood] you left for Chu Sheng?"

"That's natural, he has swallowed the Crimson Blood now, and now what we have to do is to test the side effects and specific effects of this experimental product." The little girl spoke leisurely.

In her palm was a small tablet. On the screen of the tablet, there seemed to be an electrocardiogram-like picture, which kept fluctuating, as if recording Chu Sheng's physical data in real time.

Obviously, what happened in the city was under the control of the two.

"If Chu Sheng used a new experimental product, wouldn't the energy fluctuations that erupted attract the attention of the city guards?"

"Don't worry." The little girl smiled and read, "Not every city guard can monitor the movements of the entire city like the one in Haicheng."

"It's just the energy fluctuations of the rock realm. Unless he suddenly starts to sense the energy fluctuations of the entire city, he will never find it."

"Besides, even if he finds it, at most he will kill Chu Sheng, the waste, and it will not affect us."

"I see, it seems that I have been underestimated by you." A voice suddenly joined the conversation between the two.

"Who is it?!" Almost in an instant, the little girl and the man in sunglasses jumped up in shock, and while jumping back, strong energy fluctuations also erupted from their bodies!

The place where the sound came from seemed to have suffered a violent explosion and was immediately covered by smoke and dust.

But just half a second later, the smoke and dust dissipated, and a man in a robe and long hair, who seemed to have traveled from ancient times, stood there calmly, looking at the two people quietly.

"The Virtual Demon Council, Councillor No. 8, [Editor]"

He first looked at the little girl and calmly explained her origin, "The owner of the A-level ability [Memory Editing]."

Then he looked at the man in sunglasses next to him, "And Councillor No. 12, [Wormhole]."

"Just like what that little friend said, you are here!"

He looked at the two people indifferently, his eyes were empty, and there was no trace of murderous intent on his body.

"Two councillors, you are acting so openly in Jiangcheng, don't you take me too seriously?"

His calm words were calm, but in the ears of the two people opposite, it was like thunder.

"City defenders..." The editor bit the lollipop in his mouth hard, his whole body tensed up, his expression horrified, "【Collapse】 Li Sheng!!"

"You walked around Jiangcheng at will, indirectly causing the deaths of nearly a hundred civilians. It is my serious dereliction of duty." The man called 【Collapse】 was still calm, but his eyes were quietly placed on the two people in front of him.

"I'm sorry, please stay here forever."

...

"Ah!"

Xu Ye waved the brick with both hands and slapped Chu Sheng hard.

Chu Sheng staggered and slapped his hands.

The strong repulsive force pushed Xu Ye away.

But the next second, Qu Yi accelerated to the side of Chu Sheng and punched him in the abdomen.

Boom!

Chu Sheng had no way to avoid it, and rolled over and hit the solid iron gate.

Even though he already had the power of the Rock Realm.

But in terms of actual combat experience and the degree of mastery of his own abilities, he was no match for the two!

After Xu Ye saw through his weakness, he only needed to attack from two opposite directions with Qu Yi to make Chu Sheng care about the beginning and not the end.

He was like a child holding a knife, with weapons but no skills and strength to use them skillfully.

"Hiss..." Xu Ye stood up from the ground with a breath of cold air.

He was hit by Chu Sheng's ability from the front and suffered a great impact.

Even if he had no combat experience, Chu Sheng was still a Rock Realm opponent and should not be underestimated.

"Two little brats."

Chu Sheng panted heavily, and the intense exercise made his already well-trained body feel tired.

He leaned against the iron door, facing the two people, and suddenly raised his right hand.

"Don't think I can't deal with you!"

"This move will take your lives!"

As soon as the voice fell, a strong repulsive force surged from his hand.

"Be careful." Xu Ye shouted in a low voice, and quickly used both hands as a defense, holding them in front of him.

Qu Yi followed suit and made a defensive move.

However, the repulsive force that came from the impact was not as strong as the two imagined.

Squeak--

The heavy iron door was suddenly pulled open, and the sun shone in through the door.

Chu Sheng turned over and jumped out, pretending to want to fight for his life, but actually took the opportunity to escape from this secret room.

"Oh no, I've been fooled!" Qu Yi reacted, used energy to disperse the repulsive force in front of him, and immediately chased after him.

Xu Ye also put down his arm, his eyes flashed with coldness, but he did not seem panicked.

"Huh, you want to escape?"

He reached into his arms, took out a dark yellow talisman without saying a word, and threw it forward.

"What is that? The world in the mirror?" Qu Yi noticed the yellow talisman and immediately showed surprise.

"It's a little more convenient than that." During the conversation, Xu Ye had already rushed out of the secret room, "This is called-"

"[Fog Rising from the Mountains and Seas]"
