"The balance has been disturbed?"

Hu Qi frowned slightly, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

In the past ten years, there have been no problems, but today the World Membrane crystal, which is as solid as a mountain, shows signs of erosion.

He stared at the gradually mottled World Membrane crystal.

This situation means that the origins of the world are being eroded and becoming unbalanced. If early intervention is not made, the consequences will be disastrous.

The whole world will be completely shattered in the end.

The final result is that a hole will appear in this World Membrane.

By then, the Source Calamity Gray Mist dormant in the Void Sea will surely take advantage of the situation and sneak in, like a greedy glutton, intensifying the erosion of the Origin Realm.

"It just so happens that practicing all the time is a bit boring, so let me see what's going on."

Hu Qi's eyes flashed.

The words fell.

Hu Qi puts more attention into it.

These worlds are not weak though.

But it is simply impossible to withstand the arrival of the Daoist body.

The Daoist master's personality can generally only be supported by the size of the Origin Realm.

This is why Hu Qi did not find the Daoist figure outside the Origin Realm before.

It is one thing to have a small number of Daoist masters.

The most important point is that the Daoist master's status is too high.

Going to any world outside the Origin Realm or Sea of Sumeru is unbearable.

If you have to enter it, the result of the One and Only is that World Will will be affected by the will of the Daoist master, it will be exploded, and all the creatures in it will die.

Therefore, the best way is to put more will into it, find the source of this situation, and find a way to solve it.

Golden Crow fell to the west.

Like a festering wound, Crimson mucus slowly seeped down from the gaps in the clouds.

Gradually the sky darkened.

Deep in the alley, a five-story hotel stood silently in the darkness.

The neon sign in front of the hotel flashed strangely.

Among the four characters, only the characters "" and "" glowed palely, while the other two characters were completely hidden in the darkness.

With the faint light, the four faded words 'Qingyuan Hotel' could barely be made out.

Under the sunset.

The shadow of this hotel stretched long on the ground on one side.

It was still bright, and the sun still had a demigod body, but when we got here, there was a sense of darkness.

As we got closer, even the stuffy air became a lot cooler.

At this moment, in a cafe across the street in the distance.

There was a man and a woman sitting opposite each other.

The man is a sunny and handsome young man in his twenties, with a silver earring on his right ear.

The woman is younger, wearing a blue and white school uniform. She looks like she is only fourteen or fifteen years old, like a junior high school student.

The two seemed to be eating.

But from time to time, he would look at the hotel in the alley on the other side of the street.

"According to the current intelligence, this hotel suddenly appeared a week ago.

During this period, hundreds of people have entered, but no one has come out so far.

What's even weirder is that it can't be seen at all during the day and only appears near night. "

At this time, the girl frowned slightly and spoke.

"This is obviously another strange place. But no matter what, we cannot allow such anomalies to exist here."

She raised her eyes and looked at the young man opposite.

"Shuo Qiu, what do you think?"

The young man known as Shuo Qiu slowly shook his head.

"I have lived for thousands of years, and I have never seen such strange stories, and I don't even know where they come from."

"Ji Shang, I don't recommend you go in. These weird stories are far more dangerous than they seem."

"Oh, don't you think there's anything you can do to fight against it?"

The girl, Ji Shang, did not answer, but asked a question.

"Hmph! It's just a weird story, no matter how weird it is, what can you do to me? I'm one of the Ten Great Martial Artifacts!"

Shuo Qiu raised his chin with a disdainful sneer on his lips, as if he had been greatly insulted.

"I'm just too lazy to change masters frequently! How long have you been Weapon Wielder? You can't even use 30% of my strength, and you dare to take risks!"

"If you die, I will have to fall into a long sleep again."

Hearing this, Ji Shang raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

She knew that the other person was like this.

The mouth of the knife is like the heart of tofu.

Doesn't she know that strange stories are dangerous?

But she had reasons she had to deal with.

If these strange rumors are allowed to spread, humanity will only be destroyed.

Think about this.

She was about to say something, but the words hadn't come out yet.

--boom!

The deafening explosion suddenly tore through the air, and the violent shock wave shook the entire window into countless sharp fragments, pouring towards Ji Shang like a heavy rain.

Those sharp-edged glass shards reflected a deadly cold light under the light, and were about to draw several blood marks on her face.

At the critical moment.

All the fragments suddenly and strangely froze in mid-air, as if an invisible hand had pressed the pause button.

Then, like pearls with broken strings, they clinked to the ground.

The entire cafe was now shrouded in a strange purple light.

The young man has long since disappeared from the seat.

Ji Shang I don't know when a giant sickle with a length of two meters appeared in her hand. Purple lines snaked on her skin like a living thing, spreading from her fingertips to the end of her eyes.

"This is."

She looked up across the street.

The black apartment building that originally stood there was cracking at an alarming speed, and tongues of hot flames were shooting out from the cracks.

Countless strange Anomalous One figures struggled and screamed at the burning window, and the burning smell mixed with the heat wave hit our faces.

Boom——!

The next second.

The entire building fell apart in an earth-shattering explosion.

See this scene.

Ji Shang's pupils suddenly shrank, and he tapped the window lattice with his toes, turning into purple Flowing Light and cutting through the sky.

She shot through the Mars flying in the sky like an arrow from a string, and shot straight towards the ruined hotel.

——

"Look! It's Lord Weapon Wielder!"

"Oh my god! That scythe is cooler than the weapon you saw in the video!"

"I wish I could become Weapon Wielder!"

"What are you shooting for, idiot, why don't you run away!"

The customers in the cafe came to their senses and took out their mobile phones to take pictures.

Amidst the continuous sound of shutters, no one showed any fear at the supernatural phenomena.

In this world, Weapon Wielder is like a rare animal, rare but real.

However, there were also some smart people who quickly fled into the distance.

If Weapon Wielder appears, there will definitely be danger. If you continue to stay, once you are affected, your death will be in vain.

Ji Shang had no time to pay attention to the commotion behind him.

When she landed on the edge of the ruins, she slashed with the giant scythe in her hand.

The violent Gale Wind instantly tore through the billowing smoke and dust, revealing a shocking scene:

The Ghost Story Hotel was gone, replaced by a huge charred pit nearly a hundred meters in diameter.

"It actually destroyed this place directly. Could it be that Weapon Wielder took action?"

Ji Shang looked confused.

"It's impossible. If there is Weapon Wielder, it's impossible for me to not sense it, unless... the other party is also one of Ten Great Martial Artifacts!"

Shuo Qiu's voice rang in her ears.

Hearing this, Ji Shang took out a black mobile phone from his arms.

Called directly.

It just rang once.

The call was answered.

Didn't wait for the other person to speak.

Ji Shang quickly spoke.

"I am Ji Shang, help me retrieve images within ten minutes of Qingyuan Hotel..."

After a while.

The phone vibrated.

A picture was sent.

Wait until Ji Shang sees it clearly.

Before she could react.

Then the voice of Shuo Qiu suddenly sounded.

With a sense of consternation.

"It's him, no wonder..."

——Boom!!!

A jagged bolt of lightning tore through the clouds, illuminating the entire city in an instant.

Skyscrapers with flashing neon lights towered beneath the clouds.

Neon strips smudged in the rain and fog, covering the towering glass curtain wall with a hazy light.

Rain meanders on the facades of skyscrapers, refracting thousands of lights into fragmented galaxies.

On the asphalt road, the accumulated water reflects the changing neon lights, like an overturned paint bucket.

The street lights in the green belt cast a dim halo in the rain.

At the far corner of the street, rain was weaving like a curtain.

A black umbrella broke through the rain curtain, and the water droplets dripping from the edge of the umbrella made tiny splashes on the asphalt road.

The figure under the umbrella moves from far to near, and the outline gradually becomes clearer.

He was a short-haired young man in his early twenties, with an ordinary appearance, but a scar that was several inches long on his left cheek gave him a bit of a vicious look.

The gray jacket was darkened by the rain, and the tight shoulder lines outlined a strong physique. The calf muscles exposed under the shorts were tangled, and the water accumulated in each step trembled slightly.

Hu Qi As he walked forward, he gently turned the umbrella handle with his fingers, so that the raindrops on the umbrella surface flew away in a spiral shape.

This body is not a body.

It was the physical body created by a ray of soul that he had entered here before.

With the help of each other, I have grown here for ten years.

Now with the infusion of power from Hu Qi.

The power of this body has become a little stronger.

Suddenly at this moment, Hu Qi stopped.

He raised his hand and stretched out the umbrella, letting a few drops of cold rain fall into his palm.

The raindrops bloomed on the skin, with the unique turbidity of the city, but there was a hint of something strange.

Rain, which is ordinary in the eyes of ordinary people, shows strange changes in Hu Qi's field of vision.

From every drop of rain, a hair-thin black mist rises, twisting in the air like a living creature.

At a glance.

The entire city was shrouded in a black cloud-like atmosphere.

And in this case, the closer to the front, the darker the black air becomes.

"The source of that thing should be in this city..."

Hu Qi's eyes moved slightly.

Because he had used the power of the soul to enter this world before, he was no stranger to the information in this world.

This world is called Silent Realm.

On the surface it looks unremarkable, just an ordinary modern world.

The level of scientific and technological civilization is roughly equivalent to that of Blue Star around the beginning of the 21st century.

It turns out that the extraordinary power in this world is an existence named Weapon Wielder.

This system is somewhat special.

It is not controlled by humans themselves.

Instead, it relies on external forces, somewhat similar to the previous world of beast control.

The difference between the two is.

People in that world rely on raising Spirit Beast to gain strength.

Some people in this world obtain different weapons by mastering them, and obtain Supernatural Power.

Each piece of equipment contains varying degrees of extraordinary power.

These artifacts are not limited to cold weapons in the traditional sense. They may be modern firearms, ordinary farm tools, or even an ordinary pair of scissors. As long as they have special powers, they can be called weapons.

When ordinary people are recognized with weapons, they step into the ranks of 'Weapon Wielder'.

Some of these weapons are normal and can be controlled.

But some weapons will erode Weapon Wielder's spirit and turn him into a murderous madman.

Some weapons even don't need an owner at all, because every weapon is considered alive.

You can choose the owner yourself.

The main theme of this world is the plot of Weapon Wielder, the righteous side representing mankind, fighting against evil weapons.

Of course, this is normal.

Half a month ago, the world suddenly changed.

All kinds of weird stories began to appear quietly.

Once ordinary people encounter these strange stories, they are almost certain to die.

Even if the powerful Weapon Wielder is involved, he will be killed if he is not careful.

What's even more frightening is that the number of these strange stories is increasing day by day.

If there are no accidents, these weird and strange stories are exactly the Root that this world is gradually eroding.

And the reason why Hu Qi can be found here.

Black energy is the reason, but there is another point.

It's the thing I got from Qingyuan Hotel before.

Think of this.

Hu Qi reached into his pocket.

A black bookmark appeared in his hand.

There was a line of small blood-colored words written on it.

[Luokamu Municipal Library]

After he entered here.

Then I found the location of a strange story nearby.

That is the Qingyuan Hotel.

After entering, after interrogating those employees who had already been eroded by the strange power, I found that there was no gain.

Hu Qi set the hotel on fire directly.

And this bookmark was something found in the bar of that hotel.

At that time, this was sandwiched in a burnt and blackened book.

Everything else was covered in flames, but the bookmark remained unharmed.

If there are no accidents.

The source of this strange story should be related to this Luokamu Municipal Library.

The bookmark itself is more like a medium through which the power of ghost stories spreads.

Think of this.

He stepped forward.

Not long after, his footsteps stopped again.

A library suddenly stood in front of him.

The closed iron gate separates the inside and outside into two worlds.

Through the dusty glass window.

Only the outline of neatly arranged bookshelves can be seen vaguely.

A fat man with acne on his face squatted outside the door.

He was looking down at his cell phone.

Everything seemed so ordinary.

But in Hu Qi's field of vision.

The entire library was covered in that black substance.

Like a dormant giant beast.

With its mouth wide open, it waits for its prey to fall into its trap.

"That friend"

At this time, the fat man suddenly raised his head and noticed the existence of Hu Qi.

However, he was shocked by the ferocious aura of Hu Qi's appearance, and his voice weakened unconsciously.

"Are you here to apply for a job too?"

Hu Qi did not answer immediately.

His eyes turned to the yellowed recruitment notice on the glass:

"We are currently recruiting a number of librarians, with a monthly salary of 2k-10k. Details are negotiable. If necessary, please contact Manager Liu, Tel: 1974"

See this scene.

Hu Qi's eyes flashed, the corners of his mouth twitched, revealing a smile, and then nodded.

"Yes, I'm here to apply!"
