Could It Be Moonlit Night?
The shift from their initial alliance to their current confrontation was entirely within each other's expectations.
"Gentlemen, none of us are in good condition. Why don't we put aside our hatred, rest, and recharge our energy?" Wen Keke her best to maintain a smile.
"The grudges need to be settled, but we can't let a tiger return to the mountain," Qin Rang said firmly.
"Don't take advantage of people in distress!" the man shouted.
"The way you're talking makes it sound like we're all good people," Sheng Qingqiao said with a grin. "Our injuries are more serious, aren't they? What are you worried about?"
Wen Keke looked at Tao Yuan: "Your injuries are nothing to your team's healers, right?"
Tao Yuan had already fed herself a bubble, so her face wasn't as pale and weak as before. Upon hearing this, she twitched the corners of her mouth and then closed her eyes to catch her breath.
She had just exhausted herself and no longer had the energy to generate bubbles for healing.
The Chainsaw's Soul-Cutting Rule consumes a lot of energy, draining the body's energy with each use, so she doesn't use it often. Furthermore, each use accelerates the eerie resurrection process, making this a last resort.
"Clang!"
The two sides were locked in a stalemate when a familiar voice startled everyone.
They instinctively looked around, only to see bronze-colored horse hooves in the thick fog.
Both sides' expressions changed, and the tense atmosphere from before instantly dissipated.
Amidst the metallic scraping sounds, two fully armed Bronze Horses emerged from the thick fog, clad in battle armor, and surrounded them from both sides, blocking their escape route.
They're actually two A-Rank Bronze Horses!
A chill ran through everyone. Just now, one strange creature had already forced out all the powerful Weird Object on their bodies, and their energy was completely depleted. Now, two more strange creatures had appeared!
Without hesitation, An Ying raised her gun and aimed it at the Bronze Horse's forehead.
"Don't move!" Wen Keke noticed his movement and immediately stopped him, her tone almost distorted and sounding somewhat sharp.
An Ying paused, looking at her with confusion.
"Listen to me, don't move. That's their Rules." Wen Keke's voice was high-pitched and unpleasant. "Whatever you do, don't make a move."
She's too close to these people now, and the strange entity has already identified her as part of their group. If they trigger the Rules and implicate her, it will be another undeserved disaster.
An Ying looked at Qin Rang, Qin Rang nodded to her, and only then did she stop what she was doing.
Two Bronze Horses slowly approached the group, but remained stationary without attacking, coldly maintaining a stalemate with them.
Seeing that there seemed to be no immediate danger, everyone breathed a slight sigh of relief.
"Why did you help us?" Even if Qin Rang didn't want to admit it, and didn't care what she was up to, Wen Keke had indeed saved him and his teammates.
He has to repay this debt.
"You are the main force in killing the monsters, so helping you is the same as helping myself."
"This doesn't sound like something someone who Worship God would say," Mi Chuchu said.
"I've already said, I'm not my sister anymore, and the Worship God n't the same as before. We're just trying to survive now." Wen Keke frowned, her voice earnest.
"You may not believe me, but we truly have no intention of developing into a cult. We don't kill or cause trouble now; we just want to live a good life. Is that not allowed?"
"Yes, no one in our base goes on killing anymore. We all know we were wrong." Several men nodded in agreement.
Tao Yuan weakly opened her eyes and An Ying's gaze. An Ying blinked her An Ying eyes slightly and nodded almost imperceptibly.
"You reek of blood even more than your Older Sister, and you still say you didn't kill anyone?" Tao Yuan sneered.
Wen Keke looked aggrieved. "I really didn't kill anyone, never."
"But there must be quite a few people who died for you, right?" An Ying asked.
"Indeed, they all sacrificed themselves to save me, and I feel heartbroken and saddened." Wen Keke's eyes were filled with melancholy, but she quickly regained her resolve. "But it was all so that we could survive better and protect more people. I understand their sacrifice in my heart."
"Yes, Coco, thank you for everything you've done over the years."
"We are all here to protect you willingly."
"The people in charge of the previous murders have all been locked up and dealt with by you. We haven't done anything wrong. Stop being so aggressive."
Wen Keke pulled back the group, whose emotions were gradually becoming agitated, and shook her head with a frown.
Qin Rang watched as this young woman calmed down those around her with just a few words, even making them more loyal, and his apprehension deepened.
She's more terrifying than her sister when it comes to manipulating people's hearts.
If she had nothing to hide, why wouldn't she go to the Residential Zone instead of hiding here? They didn't even know she existed before. If she changed her name and lived a normal life, the Authorities wouldn't have noticed her at all.
"Let's not talk about that anymore. What do we do now? Why isn't this strange creature leaving?" Wen Keke changed the subject.
"Maybe it's because we just killed one," Qin Rang said.
A silence fell as both sides contemplated how to abandon the other and escape.
"Clatter."
A few minutes later, very light footsteps came from the thick fog.
The visitors had a clear purpose, and every step they took was very deliberate, with their target being a few people.
Everyone's muscles tensed, and their palms were sweating.
More weird stuff?? This Weird Zone is way too lively at night.
Wen Keke's expression changed, and she said with disdain, "Your Calamity Crossing Squad is truly a bunch of unlucky bastards."
She's been here so long, and she's never encountered so many powerful and eerie entities in a single night! How long has this Calamity Crossing Squad been here, and how many strange entities have they already attracted?
None of them could refute this statement, and could only accept it with grim faces. They themselves felt that their luck was incredibly bad.
After a moment of silence, the footsteps suddenly disappeared, followed by a somewhat hoarse voice coming from the mist.
"It's so lively!"
The fog around us seemed to have thickened.
A tall figure emerged from the wisps of mist, revealing a pair of deep green eyes that even the thick fog couldn't conceal.
The visitor's features and figure were obscured by the thick fog, as if intentionally hidden in the mist so that only a rough outline could be seen.
That sound...
Sheng Qingqiao turned his head to look at An Ying. An Ying frowned, also feeling that this person's voice was very familiar. Although it was terribly hoarse, as if the vocal cords were damaged, it seemed strangely familiar.
You scared someone.
Beside the newcomer was another figure, but he was even more completely shrouded in the thick fog, making it impossible to see anything clearly, and his voice was neither male nor female.
"Feel sorry."
It appears to be two humans?
This shade of green Wen Keke of the green-eyed youth she had met during the day, but the youth's gentle appearance did not match the strange and eerie figure in front of her at all.
Unlike Wen Keke's confusion, Qin Rang and the others almost instantly thought of that Mysterious Organization. Their attitude, the color of their eyes, and their voices were all too unique; it was hard not to suspect someone.
