Shura 2: A many-sided shura field

Ye Jiang looked at him, and the noisy monster leaders, the eldest and the third, also looked at him. Under the gaze of the three, the second monster said sullenly, "Anyway, we're just idling around."

He awkwardly picked at his fingers, not knowing why he couldn't help but feel drawn to this strange monster.

The second monster nudged his older and younger brothers. "Just helping out, it's not a problem to find a few humans in the building."

Unlike that Slaughter God who asked them to find the vanished Sky, which was simply asking the impossible!

The eldest and third brothers looked at Ye Jiang, and when they met Ye Jiang calm eyes, they felt... not so unwilling after all.

After a few seconds of silence, the leader nodded first. "Okay, I'll help you this once."

He raised his chin, "For the sake of our compatriots."

Monsters are a law-abiding society; they don't care about sentimentality. He's just like the second brother—well, he's a bit bewitched.

"Who do you want us to find?" the third monster asked.

Ye Jiang paused. She had forgotten something: she did have a list of the Bureau of the Ability Control Bureau's exploration teams in her mind, but she couldn't convey it in detail to these three monsters, especially since they didn't seem very intelligent.

This is troublesome.

what to do?

If only she could just copy the list in her head to the monsters like an electronic imaging system.

As Ye Jiang was pondering this, the three brothers glanced at her and suddenly said, "Just these seven humans? Okay."

He left after saying that.

Ye Jiang: "?"

Ye Jiang was unaware that when the thought of electronic imaging flashed through her mind and a hint of dark red appeared in her eyes, a list actually appeared in the minds of the three monster brothers.

Ye Jiang was unaware of all this; she watched in confusion as the three monster brothers walked away. The three brothers rushed into the group of toys, grabbed one, and cried, "Give me a mission! We need to go upstairs!"

The monsters also need to follow the rules of the building; they must complete the floor tasks before going upstairs.

The captured toy displayed a bright red task window: [Die! Die! Die!]

The monster grabbed the toy by the neck and shook it violently. "It won't die, get another one!"

The wind-up toy rattled and jingled, looking like it was about to break. A hint of frustration appeared on its plastic face. The text in the task box disappeared, replaced by: [Spinning around, let's spin around!]

The wind-up toy, shaped like a ballerina, raises its hand and stands on tiptoe, elegantly ready to go. The monster releases it, and the toy spins itself into a spinning top.

Wind-up toys:

Ye Jiang watched the whole thing unfold, a glint of light flashing in her eyes. The toys in this strange mall seemed to have emotions, and they weren't rigid at all; they were like... living beings.

Ye Jiang can distinguish whether Polluted is alive; that's an instinctive judgment. If we apply this judgment, toys don't fall under this definition of "alive." Are these toys living or non-living entities?

The three monsters completed their tasks and went upstairs. Ye Jiang waited on the second floor for a while, but Yu Hai didn't come up, so she took the elevator downstairs.

Ding! The elevator doors opened, and Ye Jiang's gaze met that of someone outside. A man hiding behind a pillar was peeking at the elevator, but Ye Jiang caught him. Ye Jiang wasn't interested in the man behind the pillar, so she looked away and walked out of the elevator to find Yu Hai. The owner of that gaze paused for a moment, looked around to make sure there were no toys, and quickly caught up with Ye Jiang.

"Hey, you're finally out of the elevator. I thought you'd gotten stuck upstairs and become the first victim on the second floor."

The man, Wu Si, followed Ye Jiang with small, quick steps, nagging behind her, "By the way, why have you been up there for so long? Did something happen? Did you see where the Pollution up there came from? Is the Pollution really that terrifying?"

Ye Jiang searched for Yu Hai's whereabouts with her eyes, but before she could find him, she was annoyed by his nagging.

She paused, turning to look at the man following her. Wu Si, oblivious to her own incessant chatter, smiled at her as she turned, then continued his nagging, "Why isn't there any Pollution residue on you? That guy from the Ability Control Bureau called you Healer. Are you a healing-type ability user? Is your level high? Did you heal the Pollution yourself? You..."

Ye Jiang's face twitched; she was really being noisy.

"The Pollution is gone," she threw out this message, trying to stop him.

"The Pollution is gone? Haha, your ability level is indeed very high. I once saw someone who didn't believe in the supernatural and insisted on going up to the second floor. When he came down from the second floor, he was dazed and looked like an idiot, hugging a pillar and banging his head against it. If it weren't for the special energy in the building, he might have really become an idiot. You..."

"I mean, the Pollution on the second floor is gone," Ye Jiang interrupted him.

"Haha, is it Pollution from the second floor? I must have misheard... What?!" Wu Si exclaimed.

He had been wary of the toy getting close, but now he was so shocked that he screamed. It's understandable; anyone would be overwhelmed by such news!

Wu Si's eyes widened in shock. Ye Jiang, seeing that he had stopped nagging, was satisfied and walked away. Wu Si, still in shock, forgot to follow.

A wind-up toy walked towards him, startled Wu Si, who suddenly snapped back to reality and hid.

There was another person hiding in the shop where he was hiding. That person smirked at him and asked in a low voice, "What were you yelling about over there just now?"

Wu Si opened his mouth. "... Brother, I have some big news to tell you, do you believe it?"

"Oh? What big news?" The man was unconcerned. Information in this building wasn't kept secret; you could basically find out all the rules by talking to others after just a few days. There was no such thing as a truly "big news."

Wu Si, still somewhat dazed, said, "The terrifying Pollution that lingered on the second floor has disappeared."

"Puff."

You don't believe me?

"Of course I don't believe it."

"Hmm, I don't believe it either."

"..." the man said, "To be honest, I've actually been up to the second floor and seen the Pollution. It's far more terrifying than the Pollution from the Polluted. To put it simply, the Pollution from the Polluted is like a cheap imitation compared to the Pollution from the second floor."

Wu Si: "... That's truly terrifying."

But the master who gave him guidance didn't seem like the type to joke around.

Wu Si came out of the shop, but didn't see the master who had given him guidance. His gaze swept towards the elevator in the distance. He had completed the toy task on the first floor and could now see the elevator button. That elevator button was tempting.

He was staring at him, unable to look away.

The Pollution on the second floor is gone.

The Pollution on the second floor is gone.

The Pollution on the second floor...

Wu Si fixed her gaze and walked towards the elevator.

He raised his hand and pressed the elevator button, his fingers trembling almost as he did so.

The elevator doors opened, and he hesitated before stepping inside, hesitating before closing the doors, and hesitating before pressing the button for the second floor.

As the elevator began to ascend, his heart pounded violently, as if it were about to burst out of his chest.

The elevator stopped, the doors slowly opened, and Wu Si assumed a defensive stance.

The covered bridge stood empty and silent before him.

Quiet and safe.

There is no Pollution.

His heart was pounding faster and faster. He slowly walked out of the elevator, onto the walkway, and through it into the mall. Shops lined the streets, and toys were everywhere, but there was no Pollution.

"... Really, no..."

The master hadn't lied to him; the Pollution on the second floor had indeed disappeared.

He suddenly sprinted back to the elevator, rushed downstairs, ignoring the toy's threat, and the moment the elevator doors opened, he braced himself against the doors, took a deep breath, and shouted, "The Pollution on the second floor is gone!"

His words caused a great stir, and the desperate people who had been lingering on the first floor all looked over.

Chapter 116 Shura 2: A Multi-faceted Shura Field.

Ye Jiang found Yu Hai, the leader of the exploration team, in the most secluded corner of the shop. He was standing in the empty shop, deep in thought, seemingly lost in his own thoughts. Ye Jiang's footsteps were always very light, so this experienced field operative didn't notice her until she entered the shop.

Upon seeing her, the man immediately stopped thinking and quickly examined her physical condition. Finding no obvious external injuries, he asked, "The Healer came downstairs? Are you alright?"

"I'm fine," Ye Jiang replied. She was indeed unharmed. Yu Hai breathed a sigh of relief. What he feared most was that this distinguished guest from the Ability Control Bureau would be injured during his mission. It wasn't just a matter of responsibility, but he knew the significance of this guest to all of humanity, and he couldn't afford to make a mistake.

With his biggest concern resolved safely, Yu Hai finally had the energy to ask, "Did you see the Pollution? Was it Pollution from the Polluted?"

"No," Ye Jiang replied, intending to tell the captain about the situation upstairs, but her attention was diverted by Yu Hai's shoulder; she noticed the pigeon toy on Yu Hai's shoulder was gone. Her attention was always like smoke, easily drawn away; most things held little weight in her mind.

Not Polluted?

That's a monster?

Yu Hai's pupils constricted. The worst had happened: the Pollution on the second floor might have come from a monster! Or it might have come from something beyond his imagination! The latter was more troublesome, but even if it was a monster, it was still extremely bad.

Monsters... Humans are no match for monsters. Those creatures from another world, even the weakest of them, are as powerful as mountains that humans can only look up to. They are like Pandora's box, and we don't know what kind of disasters they will unleash.

Things have gotten complicated.

what to do?

If monsters have indeed taken over the second floor of the mall, they will be unable to climb any further, and their exploration mission will have to be abruptly halted.

At this moment, Yu Hai naturally assumed that Ye Jiang had appeared in this place because she had been forced back by the Pollution on the second floor. He had heard about the deeds of Healer Healer, acknowledged her specialness and strength, but did not think she could be stronger than a monster.

They are, after all, human.

The term "human" itself is a limiting word in a certain sense; there is an upper limit to one's strength.
