Chapter 81: Chapter 37: Night General, Awaiting the Taboo_2

"On the road where there are so many Processors and Taboo Items, why are they only targeting me?"

"You still don’t understand?" At this moment, Sha Li’s Nuomian on his face spoke, "This is your curse, You Must Meet Strong Enemies! After the death of the Zhe Lan King, a powerful enemy will be sent to confront you again! That’s why I said, staying by his side, you guys are bound to face trouble!"

Li Yelai frowned; it was his first time learning about such a curse.

Could this also be considered a form of Calamity?

If what this Phantom Mask Strategy said was correct, then wasn’t his luck more than just bad?

It was as if destiny was arranging enemies for him. Did it feel like he wasn’t dying fast enough?

No, this must definitely be one of Mr. Shadow’s schemes!

He intended to force Li Yelai into a deal with Him by repeatedly bringing strong enemies to push Li into danger!

Li Yelai suspected in his mind.

But... if that was the case, why would he still give himself a Face?

Without the Second Face, Li would have had to make a deal with Him, right?

Was this a case of... deliberately releasing only to capture again?

No, right now, he had to deal with the Black Stone Statue Ghost, but his Spiritual Energy was already running low.

At this time, someone laughed loudly and said, "Oh? You Must Meet Strong Enemies? Is there such good luck? Comrades, assemble! We’ll wait by the Night General and catch what comes!"

The one-armed Ye Boshou, Bai Yang, burst out laughing and charged out of the corridor.

Wielding a broadsword and swinging it horizontally, a sword light flashed across the air. Bai Yang was a Spiritual Ability User of the True Martial Path of the Four Awakenings, and this sword light was his fourth ability, Sharp Blade Light!

In the next second, the Black Stone Statue Ghost was beheaded.

The beheaded stone statue ghost attempted to reclaim its head as it climbed back up.

However, several heavy footsteps sounded, and several Iron Guards pounced on the body of the stone statue ghost together.

Ten tons of weight pressed down on the stone statue ghost, preventing any attempt to struggle free.

Meanwhile, other Iron Guards seized the head of the stone statue ghost, preventing it from returning to its body.

After a while, the stone statue ghost lost its vitality and reverted back to being a stone statue.

Black Stone Statue Ghost suppression successful!

At the same time, more and more Processors and Iron Guards arrived, and even civilian personnel came with pistols to provide support.

Previously, Li Yelai’s pursuit and annihilation of the Zhe Lan King’s forces had nearly alerted everyone.

One man chasing down over a thousand Cavalry to slash was just too thrilling!

Some were interested in the Heart of Slaughter in Li’s chest, while others thought Li’s pursuit of such a group of Cavalry might be detrimental.

So they came one after another to provide aid.

As a result, there were over twenty Processors and thirty Iron Guards who arrived at the scene.

Following them to the Battlefield, without spending a moment to mourn the suppression of the Black Stone Statue Ghost, was the Tree Spirit!

It seemed to be fighting with other Processors above and somehow shattered the ceiling, cleverly crashing down and appearing in front of Li Yelai and others.

Consequently, everyone immediately rushed forward excitedly and gave the Tree Spirit a beating.

They received this overwhelming fortune!

Upon learning that Li Yelai had the ability to attract monsters, the Ye Boshous immediately made a decision.

They allowed Li Yelai to rest on the side and continue attracting monsters.

They would take it easy and suppress any live Taboo Items that showed up.

"I’ve never fought such a rich battle!"

"I hereby unilaterally declare, Night·Monster Cage·Will to be the hero of this suppression incident!"

"Great, You Must Meet Strong Enemies, good encounters indeed!"

The Processors showed smiles, as for them outnumbering the live Taboo Items, suppression wasn’t difficult.

And as the ’bait’ waiting for the catch, Li Yelai had no objections.

He had carried the Heart of Slaughter for too long, almost two hours, far beyond the safe duration.

He must remove the Heart of Slaughter immediately. With these teammates to protect him, his safety was also guaranteed.

Thus, he removed the Wolf Vanquisher of Juxu’s Face and leaned against the corner.

Watching Cheese make incisions to remove the Heart of Slaughter’s veins and take out the heart from his chest.

Or rather, the Heart of Slaughter voluntarily severed its veins, cooperatively separating itself from Li Yelai.

Even the Heart of Slaughter was afraid of Li Yelai’s luck?

Or did it foresee something?

Li Yelai didn’t have time to wonder; as soon as the Heart of Slaughter was removed, it felt as if all the strength in his body had been drained.

The accumulated fatigue from the previous battles surged in that instant.

He soon fell asleep against the corner.

Cheese glanced at him, gently laid him on the ground, and continued to tend to his wounds.

Meanwhile, the Processors continued to beat and suppress live Taboo Items attracted by some ’coincidences’.

No one mentioned the Second Face shown by Li Yelai.

Similarly, no one knew what disaster had occurred on the ground; everyone was doing their best to fulfill their responsibilities.

...

Elsewhere, on the ground surface of No.3 Border City.

As Spiritual Energy converged, a crack appeared out of nowhere above the concert venue.

The crack rapidly expanded within seconds and instantly spread to hundreds of meters.

Looking at the crack, all Processors turned pale.

From within the rift, they felt a familiar power, the power of the Void Realm!

The power of the Void Realm was appearing directly in the Physical World!

This signified that a Calamity was about to descend upon No.3 Border City!

"How could this be? What exactly do they want to do? What in the world?"

Starfire, who had placed his sister in safety and returned to the battlefield, was on the verge of panicking after witnessing the scene.

He didn’t understand why someone would do this.

What wrong had those people living within the Giant City committed to suffer such a tragedy?
