Are You Challenging Me?

About twenty minutes later, the car slowly came to a stop.

"Try your best to stay alive!"

The investigator opened the car door and looked at Wang Ye with a sincere expression as he spoke slowly.

This was a job with an extremely high mortality rate. Behind every privilege lay the price of human lives.

"Thank you."

Wang Ye nodded and got out of the car.

"A Logistics Department guy actually made us wait for him. Pretty full of yourself, aren't you?"

A sarcastic voice rang out.

Wang Ye frowned slightly and looked over.

A Young Man stood there with an unhappy expression, his eyes glinting fiercely as he stared at Wang Ye.

"Tian Qi, this is my liaison. Can I take this as you challenging me?"

Suddenly, a woman in a red trench coat, around twenty years old and with a face as cold as frost, walked over from the distance. She looked at the Young Man, a trace of killing intent in her voice.

What a beautiful woman.

A hint of appreciation flashed through Wang Ye's eyes, especially at her sexy legs, faintly visible beneath the trench coat.

This should be Zhou Han.

She looked pretty mentally stable. Not as crazy as she had sounded on the phone.

At the sound of the woman's voice, Tian Qi's expression abruptly changed. His gaze toward Zhou Han was filled with deep wariness, and his face darkened, but he said nothing.

"Haha, we still have to work together. Why make things so tense?"

A hearty voice rang out as a Strong Man with a burly build stepped in to smooth things over.

Tian Qi's expression remained unpleasant, but out of wariness toward Zhou Han, he merely snorted coldly and said nothing.

At that moment, Zhou Han shifted her gaze to Wang Ye.

She gave Wang Ye a long look. The coldness on her face melted away like spring snow, replaced by a sweet smile. "You must be Brother Wang Ye!"

"I'll protect you."

"After all, I want to twist your head off with my own hands."

Zhou Han had already been rather unhinged over the phone, but in person, hearing such terrifying words paired with that sweet smile, even Wang Ye found it somewhat hard to get used to.

"Now isn't the time for nonsense, is it?"

Wang Ye gave Zhou Han an indifferent glance and said.

"Right, since everyone's here, let's go in."

The Strong Man still wore a hearty expression as he spoke with a grin.

Wang Ye gave the Strong Man a deep look. Among this group, this man seemed to be the most calculating.

He looked forthright and simple-minded, but every time he spoke, he quietly resolved the conflict.

If anything truly went wrong, they probably would not even know how they had been set up before they died.

"Let's go."

Zhou Han returned to her cold demeanor and stood at the entrance of the amusement park, looking at the dense green mist inside as she spoke flatly.

"You three from Logistics, stay close. If you die, don't expect us to take responsibility."

Tian Qi still looked arrogant. He casually glanced at Wang Ye and the other two Logistics Department staff before entering first, alongside Zhou Han and the Strong Man.

The other two Logistics Department staff had faint fear on their faces. They exchanged a glance, gritted their teeth, and hurried after the three Superhumans.

Wang Ye remained at the very back, silently studying the layout map by the park entrance and committing it to memory.

Listening to the crying gradually drifting out from within the park, he did not know why, but he felt as if sorrow was rising in his own heart as well.

"Looks like the crying affects one's emotions."

"I wonder if that's part of its killing pattern."

Wang Ye murmured softly, his eyes thoughtful. Seeing that the others had already gone some distance ahead, he silently followed.

As they passed through the amusement park gates, their vision was instantly obstructed. They could only see about five meters ahead.

Moreover, the previously faint crying instantly became clear.

It made a subtle sorrow rise in their hearts.

"Does the Ghost Domain amplify the crying?"

After pondering for several seconds, Wang Ye silently followed behind the group, doing his best to make himself inconspicuous.

The situation before him was different from the last time at the teaching building.

Last time, there had only been one Superhuman, the situation had been urgent, and everyone around them had been ordinary people with no experience in Supernatural Incidents. If Wang Ye had not stepped forward then, more people would probably have died.

But this time, whether it was the three Superhumans or the Logistics Department staff, they were all professionals.

Under such circumstances, forcing himself to take the lead and become cannon fodder was obviously stupid.

Those eager to show themselves off had already become black-and-white photographs hanging on walls.

Up ahead.

The Strong Man's footsteps gradually slowed.

"Do you feel it? The crying is getting louder."

"And my emotions are fluctuating badly."

"I could start crying at any moment."

The Strong Man's voice was somewhat grave as he watched the surroundings warily.

Tian Qi gritted his teeth beside him. "Damn it, I tried borrowing Zhang Kai from Scarlet Squad, but those bastards hid him away like he was treasure! If we had Zhang Kai's ability, this would be much easier to deal with!"

"Heh, Zhang Kai is Scarlet Squad's treasure."

Zhou Han sneered and glanced at Tian Qi, her eyes filled with disdain. "Everyone's physical limits are here, and the number of times we can use our abilities is limited. If we don't awaken new body parts, only death awaits us."

"Why would they lend such a precious support Superhuman to you?"

"You!!!"

Tian Qi's eyes filled with rage as he stared fixedly at Zhou Han.

"Heh."

Zhou Han sneered again, as though she knew Tian Qi did not dare make a move. The disdain in her eyes grew even stronger.

At that moment,

one of the Logistics Department members suddenly covered his face and squatted on the ground, sobbing bitterly.

"I... I miss my little sister."

He spoke as he cried.

The other Logistics Department girl seemed fairly familiar with him. Looking toward the three Superhumans, she explained, "His younger sister died in a Supernatural Incident three months ago."

Suddenly, the face of the Logistics Department member who was crying became twisted, as if a smile had been forcibly squeezed onto it. Then he collapsed to the ground.

The Strong Man's expression changed. He hurried over, examined him carefully for several seconds, then sighed. "He's dead."

"What?"

Tian Qi's expression turned extremely ugly. "We've only been in here for ten minutes, and one person's already dead. Then the ordinary people trapped here before us must be..."

Wang Ye frowned deeply. Feeling the sorrow within himself, he looked thoughtful.

"Does the killing pattern include crying?"

"The crying triggers emotional changes deep inside people and induces them to cry."

"Once they cry, the killing pattern is triggered, and they die..."

"This man's younger sister died some time ago, so he had been depressed. That made it easy for him to cry under the influence..."

In an instant, Wang Ye roughly analyzed part of the situation.

The other Logistics Department girl saw the scene before her and could not help letting out a scream. Terrified, she collapsed onto the ground.

She was just an ordinary person. Her uncle was a high-ranking official in the Investigation Bureau, and through his connections, she had been assigned to the Logistics Department, where she enjoyed official benefits.

She had originally thought there would be no danger in the Logistics Department, and that she could earn a steady income amid this terrible era.

She

had not yet prepared herself to make a sacrifice.

At that moment, listening to the ever-present yet indistinct crying by her ears, tears welled up in her eyes.
