"A monster that feeds on humans has appeared on the streets of Monora Castle late at night!"

This cannibalistic monster looks like an ordinary high school girl, but she has no eyeballs and cannot walk normally; she can only crawl and jump.

In just two days, hundreds of mutilated corpses appeared in Wuliang City!

Besides Muro City, even the surrounding smaller cities were affected to varying degrees.

However, the most serious situation is the circle centered around the Haunted Club, which is practically a scene from an apocalyptic disaster movie.

As the city lord of Wuliang City, Su Yu remained calm.

She didn't have Officer Zhao's selfless spirit.

Of course, her abilities were also limited. If she blindly chased after that monster, she would most likely just be throwing her life away.

As she continued flipping through the pages, she came across some news articles about Izumo Province.

However, those news stories were rather bland, mostly about wealthy people's cats giving birth to nine kittens.

Turning to the last few pages, there were a few scattered news articles about Dream Island and the surrounding islands.

"The destruction of the mermaid race! The last mermaid princess, Doris, has disappeared. A plague among the mermaids is spreading silently..."

"The tourism business at Dream Island is in dire straits, with significant losses this quarter. Some experts believe this is related to the escape of scallops from Dream Island..."

"The love game in the suspended harbor continues, and the crimes of human trafficking are on the rise..."

Su Yu silently closed the newspaper.

Ryoko took the newspaper from her hand and burned it to ashes with a foxfire.

"When you're out having fun, just enjoy it and don't overthink it."

"I know, I wasn't thinking anything."

Su Yu stopped a vendor selling candied hawthorns and bought three skewers.

Just as I was about to take a bite, I saw the eyeballs sealed with caramel, and I was so scared that I almost threw it away.

Ryoko reached out and took it from her.

"You won't like the food here."

Su Yu sighed dejectedly and said dejectedly, "Am I being too dramatic? I know this is all I can eat here, yet I'm still scared by the ingredients."

Ryoko didn't say anything, she just patted her head.

His eyes were full of doting affection.

What's wrong with being dramatic?

Girls are all a little bit dramatic, that's what makes them girls.

……

……

For the next stretch of the journey, the Demon King and Ryoko took turns carrying her on their backs.

Su Yu felt completely useless, like a salted fish that only knew how to eat and complain of being tired.

She was very dissatisfied with her lazy and inactive state, but the Ghost King and the other two were overjoyed and wished that she would stay this weak and timid forever, letting them do whatever they wanted with her.

When they arrived at the main gate of the Ghost King's Mansion, Su Yu had already had a good sleep.

Upon waking, she rubbed her eyes and looked at the somewhat familiar building. Her face flushed, and she lowered her head.

"Xiaoyu? Is Xiaoyu still sleeping? She can really sleep."

Miss Ghost King sighed, her face filled with happiness.

"What an adorable Sleeping Beauty."

Ryoko stretched out her arm and eagerly took Su Yu from her.

Meeting the Demon King's displeased gaze, Ryoko said in a serious and matter-of-fact manner, "It's my turn. We agreed that each person would have one hour."

Miss Ghost's lips twitched: "There's still one minute left!"

"No, a minute has passed now, it's my turn."

"You really know how to squander time, don't you?"

"We must act quickly regarding Xiaoyu's matter."

"...Tch, you're making it sound so real."

After entering, the Demon King found the cleanest room with the most comfortable temperature and forced Ryoko to put the person down.

Ryoko looked at Su Yu with lingering reluctance.

"Let's go, you stupid fox."

"I want to see her a little longer."

Su Yu opened her eyes and looked at the two of them expressionlessly: "What are you two going to do?"

Her sudden outburst put the two furtive bigwigs in an awkward position.

"Let's go out to buy groceries!" the Ghost King said, secretly pinching the fox's thigh.

"Ah, let's go buy groceries," Ryoko chimed in.

Su Yu sat up, opened the window, and pointed to the vegetable patch outside: "Were those vegetables sprayed with pesticides?"

"No? Oh, no, actually we used DDT..."

Su Yu glared at her.

You're lying, aren't you?

Don't be ashamed of lying!

The Ghost King had no choice but to surrender and confess the truth.

"Sigh, alright! My dear wife, I swore I wouldn't lie to you anymore. Actually, we were planning to go back to Wuliang City to check the situation and bring that troublesome female corpse to justice."

"I also need to go."

"It's too dangerous, my dear wife, you should..."

"I'm going."

Su Yu stood up and took out a hammer from her backpack.

Are you taking me with you?

The Demon King and Ryoko exchanged a glance.

Can I bring it?

Of course you can't bring it!

They didn't know if the female corpse's strength had increased. If it had surpassed their level again, then the two of them would have to join forces to win.

If we bring Su Yu along, it will be a huge burden.

What if I ruin my wife's life? What will happen to their future?

Ryoko took a deep breath and said slowly, "If Xiaoyu wants to go, then let's go."

The Ghost King looked at her in surprise.

Ryoko said with a serious face, "Xiaoyu is the city lord of Wuliang City after all, she might be able to help."

The Ghost King wanted to beat her to death.

"Come here, Xiaoyu, follow me."

Ryoko walked calmly towards Su Yu, reached out, and pulled her into her arms.

When Su Yu lowered her guard, she suddenly raised her hand and chopped at the back of Su Yu's neck, knocking Su Yu down instantly.

Ghost King: "..."

Ryoko picked up Su Yu's limp body and put her back on the bed.

Next, light a stick of incense to calm the soul.

With this incense, Su Yu will never wake up again.

"When it's time to be ruthless, you have to be ruthless," Ryoko said calmly. "If Yu wakes up and hits me, you have to help me."

Miss Ghost King gritted her teeth, hesitating to speak.

She sighed as she stepped out the door.

"You really are wicked."

236. Thinking of Xiaoyu in tacit agreement

Wuliang City.

The situation in the city was just as reported in the newspapers: very desolate.

Although the city is mostly inhabited by ghosts and monsters, these man-eating monsters do not only feed on humans; they have long since extended their reach to the weaker ghosts and monsters.

When the Demon King and Ryoko arrived, they hadn't even taken a step when they smelled the peculiar, stench of a demon being killed.

Looking up, a crescent-shaped blood moon hung in the dim sky.

Not far away, several humans were running for their lives.

It seems that he is a player like Su Yu.

The Ghost King raised his hand and casually threw several metal trash cans over, crushing the monsters chasing them.

The players who survived the ordeal collapsed to the ground with a thud, burying their faces in their hands and weeping bitterly.

As Ryoko approached, she noticed that one of the players was actually Xia Mai, an old acquaintance of Su Yu.

Xia Mai's face was covered in blood, and one of her eyes was completely covered by blood.

Dust was everywhere—on my clothes, in my hair.

One arm hung limply, looking as if it had been broken.
