This Is a Stand Attack!!

Not feeling very sleepy, Bai Zhi spent the night sitting in a chair, and as Ming Chu broke, a layer of white mist rose from the streets outside.

Fog in the early morning is a common occurrence, so Bai Zhi didn't initially pay much attention to it. However, he soon realized something was wrong.

As time went on, the fog not only showed no signs of dissipating, but instead became thicker and thicker, reducing visibility to the point where things a few dozen meters away could no longer be seen. Wisps of fog even began to seep into the room through the cracks in the door.

"They arrived so quickly...?"

Standing up from his chair, Bai Zhi frowned slightly as he looked at the White Mist swirling outside the window.

Although he had expected it, he never imagined that the disaster would strike so suddenly.

"If you're awake, get up. We should go."

While tidying up some things inside the room, Bai Zhi casually spoke to the person behind him.

Tong had woken up more than an hour ago, but she had been pretending to be asleep while secretly watching him.

Bai Zhi was rather indifferent to the other party's little tricks; after all, it's normal to be wary.

However, they don't have any extra time to waste here right now.

Although Bai Zhi had considered fleeing the town before the disaster struck last night, Bai Zhi abandoned the idea after some thought.

Firstly, the wilderness would be more dangerous. He might be able to protect himself alone, but he wasn't confident he could protect Tong. The Hei Ye wasn't just when Monster came out to roam; it was also when Anomaly were most active.

Furthermore, he had absolutely no experience and no clear understanding of the dangers of the wilderness. Driving into the wilderness with Tong in the middle of the night was practically suicide.

Secondly, he had no information about the disaster, not even knowing where it came from. What if he not only failed to escape but instead plunged headlong into its clutches...?

"..."

After a moment of silence, Tong threw back the covers and sat up in bed.

Ignoring the slight noise coming from behind him, Bai Zhi walked to the door and opened it a crack.

A moment later, a rat with more than a dozen disgusting growths on its body darted into the room.

During the night, Bai Zhi didn't do nothing. Using the food he obtained from the Wolf Gang, he made deals with some small creatures, such as Corpse Rat and cockroaches.

These small animals are also Life beings, and naturally, we can communicate with them.

However, after a moment, listening to the Corpse Rat's stammering and intermittent narration, Bai Zhi's expression changed slightly.

The houses in the Town Center are empty.

In other words, the Player in this town had already fled a day or two ago.

Or rather, it wasn't just them who ran away. The so-called leader of the Wolf Gang, who led most of his forces on the Trade Route, also used this pretext to slip away in advance, leaving behind Hyena and others who were essentially abandoned.

No wonder no one bothered us last night...

Looking at the fog outside that grew thicker and thicker with time, Bai Zhi squinted slightly.

He dismissed the Corpse Rat with a piece of cheese, then turned to Tong and got straight to the point.

"It's dangerous outside, we need to get out of here quickly. Do you want me to carry you or carry you on my back?"

When he burned down that factory yesterday, he didn't touch the cars outside. There should still be quite a few hunters in the city. If they want to leave the city, they will definitely look there in order to find suitable transportation.

Leaving with experienced hunters who have long been adept at surviving in the wilderness is the best option right now.

Three minutes later, with Tong wearing a mask and hat on her back, [Radiance] silently slipped into her hand. Bai Zhi walked out the door, and a thick fog swept in.

This sudden, inexplicable fog carried a chilling, murderous aura, as if it could seep into one's very bones, causing one to shiver Forbidden Land, as if the temperature of the surrounding air had suddenly dropped by more than ten degrees.

However, Bai Zhi had some foresight, so before setting off, he made sure Tong wore several layers of clothing, thinking that she should be able to withstand the fog without any problem.

At this moment, the entire street was shrouded in a thick White Mist, making it difficult to see anything beyond a short distance. However, Bai Zhi had a good memory, so there was no need to worry about getting lost.

However, as he walked, Bai Zhi's expression became increasingly solemn, and in the end, he stopped walking altogether.

There's no need to go there now.

Although visibility was very poor, he could still see some people in the fog. These people had also noticed the anomaly. Some chose to hide in their homes, blocking the doors and windows and waiting for the disaster to pass, while others, like him, also focused their attention on the dozen or so off-road vehicles belonging to the Wolf Gang.

However, there is another type of person besides these.

Bai Zhi had excellent eyesight, so he could see more through the fog than others, and thus he clearly saw the miserable state of those people.

--Their bodies blended into the surrounding objects.

These people either had half their bodies embedded in a wall, or their bodies were sunk into the floor. In one house, several people even had their heads swallowed up while their bodies struggled, which looked quite bizarre.

That is the fusion between Life being and a non- Life being. If the two are in contact for a little longer, the non- Life being will become part of the Life being's body.

To put it in concrete terms, it's like Angelo Rock from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure.

--So this is Stand Attack.

The surrounding area was filled with wails of agony, but they were all swallowed up by the thick fog, creating a truly Hell scene.

The Unique saving grace was that the clothes worn before the dense fog appeared did not seem to be categorized as non- Life entities that could merge with them.

"..."

Bai Zhi exhaled slightly and looked down at his right hand, where he held a Silver White Pistol tightly.

"Is it determined by direct skin-to-skin contact? If you place your palm on a door or table, your body will gradually become one with the table..."

With his left hand tucked into his sleeve to cover himself, Bai Zhi fiercely ripped the [Radiance] off his right hand. As a layer of bloody skin was torn off, the intense pain, as if a limb had been severed, clearly reached his mind.

In that brief period of time, [Radiance] had already assimilated with his right hand.

His current behavior is no different from deliberately cutting off five fingers.
