The ghost mask grew larger in the wind, completely covering Du Wang's face.

Then the monster saw that the other person's skin lost its rosy color, turned grayish-white instantly, and the blood vessels collapsed, with the skin clinging tightly to the bones, like a human-faced skeleton being drained of blood by the monster.

However, just as the strange-faced man showed a look of joy, he suddenly froze.

Because he received no feedback of power from the demon mask, it was as if he had simply sucked the air out of a balloon.

"Am I being misled?"

"No, what I'm seeing is fake!"

"Damn it!"

He then realized that the double pupils had been hiding their abilities from him, and with a sense of foreboding, he immediately opened the third eye on his forehead.

The illusion dissipated under the glow of the crimson halo.

But a cold glint appeared before him.

It's Mumu's longsword!

wrong!

Where is the Goddess of the Luo River?

Shouldn't Luo Shen have stopped Mu Mu?

A sense of impending doom rose within the strange-faced man, and without hesitation, his figure blurred and vanished in an instant.

The next moment, he appeared at the street corner.

However, the shadows in the darkness had already locked onto him. The moment he appeared, Luo Shen's massive body rushed over like a truck and punched him in the body.

"Bang!"

Half of the demonic mask on the grotesque face shattered, protecting him from the fatal blow.

He flew through the air, cursing Luo Shen, that wretched woman, for betraying him, while planning to use his last resort—the Ghost Face hidden in the distance.

If he could teleport, he could escape the siege and leave unscathed.

Although we didn't get the snake demon's relics, at least we can save our lives.

Unfortunately, the Goddess of the Luo River had already made preparations.

She touched the ground with both hands, and the shadow of her ancient-style dress, bathed in moonlight, suddenly lengthened, merging with the shadow of the grotesque face.

The strange face, whose figure was gradually blurring, seemed to have been interrupted during the spellcasting, and its figure became clear again.

Upon seeing his hand broken, the strange-faced man was filled with fear and shouted, "I'll give you all my money!"

But Luo Shen did not hesitate at all and touched the ground with both hands.

The shadow of the woman beneath him bared its fangs and claws, pulling the shadow of the grotesque face towards him, and causing him to fly back along with it.

Luo Shen unleashed a punch.

The tattered demon mask blocked her attack, shattering into countless stars.

Seeing that there was still a chance to escape, he suddenly felt a strange itch in his eyes, causing him to snot and tears to stream down his face.

"Holy crap, what kind of ability is that?!"

The strange-faced creature ran while tearing at its eyelids, feeling an intense, agonizing itch.

He couldn't open his eyes, nor could he see the road clearly. He knew that if he kept running, he would only be killed.

In a state of extreme agitation and fear, he chose to back down, kneeling on the ground and crying, "Don't kill me! I surrender!"

Luo Shen's fist, which was almost at his face, stopped immediately upon hearing this.

Mumu and Du Wang walked over.

Du Wang had anticipated that a conflict might occur when dividing the spoils, so he secretly used illusions to confuse the others.

But unexpectedly, the other party went straight for the kill!

What was even more unexpected was that Luo Shen, this sarcastic and jealous woman, was actually in cahoots with Mu Mu.

So the initial tense atmosphere was all an act?

Sure enough, the prettier the woman, the better her acting skills.

"To kill, or not to kill?"

The goddess Luo stood beside the strange mask with its red, tearful eyes and asked the girl for her opinion.

Mumu shook her head: "Murder is against the law."

"Did you hear me!" Luo Shen kicked the masked man to the ground. "It's the rule of law that saved you!"

The strange-faced man scratched his eyelids with both hands, tears streaming down his face. It was unclear whether he was remorseful or simply because his eyes were too itchy.

"Whose ability is this? It's so abnormal." Luo Shen frowned.

"Cough cough." Du Wang coughed twice, he also felt that this strange itching ability was a bit outrageous.

Not killing, just pure torture.

He was a dashing, bearded man this morning, but now, due to the intense itching, he's turned into a pitiful creature rolling around on the floor.

"Ugh, it itches so much! I can't take it anymore, just kill me!"

The grotesque face frantically plucked at its eyes, as if it wanted to gouge the eyeballs out.

Seeing this, Du Wang stopped using his abilities.

The strange-faced creature finally quieted down, its eyes bloodshot as it slumped to the ground.

To prevent him from escaping, Luo Shen knocked him unconscious with a single punch.

"What do we do now?" Luo Shen asked Mu Mu.

Mumu also felt it was a bit tricky, and after thinking for a moment, she said, "Why don't we let the officials handle it?"

Luo Shen tied the strange mask with cable ties, crossed her arms, and said, "Alright, I'll be going now."

Her figure gradually returned to normal, and she was even thinner than before.

Mumu nodded and tossed her the snake gall and a snake fang: "These are yours."

Luo Shen looked at her in surprise: "I told you, I came here only to help you."

Mumu laughed: "Since we're teammates, of course we should split the money. Anyway, I don't need the snake fangs, so I'll give them to you."

Luo Shen remained silent for a moment, then put the belongings into her pocket and snorted, "I'm annoyed by your attitude. Does having money make you superior?"

After saying that, she turned and left.

Mu Mu's eyes curved into crescent moons as she waved goodbye: "Bye-bye, Goddess of the Luo River, see you next time."

Luo Shen paused for a moment, then let out a heavy snort.

After she left, Du Wang said, "So you knew all along that the Strange Face was going to target you?"

Mumu shook her head: "No, I just think the snake demon is number ten on the danger list, so I need to find some powerful helpers."

"I helped Luo Shen before, so I asked her for help this time. I didn't expect that she had already been invited by the Strange Mask."

"Don't be fooled by how harsh Luo Shen's words are. It's just that her natal spirit needs jealousy to enhance its power. She's usually quite normal."

"I see."

Du Wang pondered his gains.

Aside from the relics, the biggest gain was witnessing the prowess of a Tier 2 transcendent being ahead of time.

Compared to Tier 1, Tier 2 Spirit Masters are more powerful, and their physical attributes gradually undergo inhuman changes.

It can even simultaneously command one's own spirit to fight against the target, achieving a 1+1>2 effect.

Furthermore, there are mutual restraints between the abilities of extraordinary individuals, just like how Luo Shen used her shadow to interrupt the monster's teleportation at the end.

If the strange mask had known beforehand that the Goddess of the Luo River possessed this ability, it would definitely have chosen another way to escape.

Unfortunately, he didn't know that.

Therefore, the struggle between extraordinary individuals is more of a struggle for information.

Whoever controls more holds the greater advantage.

Du Wang mentally summarized the lessons he had learned.

"Alright!" Twilight held the snake fang in her hand. "Do you want the keepsake, or should I transfer the money to you directly?"

"Just transfer the money to me." Du Wang couldn't get 50 yuan back with the belongings, so he might as well have the rich girl transfer the money directly to him.

"OK."

Mumu took out her phone, intending to contact the official channels first.

However, at that moment, a piercing bird cry suddenly rang out from the sky.

The two subconsciously looked up, only to see a flashing red light filling their field of vision.

In an instant, the two of them seemed to be frozen in place, unable to move.

As the birdsong grew louder and louder, Du Wang felt as if his consciousness was about to be shattered!

There are enemies!

A strong sense of crisis erupted in his mind.

Du Wang mustered all his strength, trying to break free from the invisible constraints.

However, that red light, like a stabilizing force, pierced into his soul, rendering him unable to move freely.

At this critical moment, the three-legged corpse crow suddenly jumped out and looked up.

Its eerie pupils rotated like yin-yang symbols, dissolving all the red light.

Du Wang immediately felt his body relax, and the force binding him quickly disappeared.

At that moment, a dark figure was rapidly descending from the sky, its dagger piercing towards Mumu like a shooting star.

Without further hesitation, Du Wang snatched the longsword from the girl's hand, leaped high into the air, and unleashed a clean and sleek sword flourish, aiming for the attacker's face.

"Ding!"

The dagger clashed with the longsword, and the repelled attacker landed with a somersault, his eyes filled with disbelief.

Before he could speak, Mumu broke free from the restraint of the red light and pointed at him.

"Backtrack!"

In an instant, the attacker's movements were like a video rewinding, flipping back into the air and falling again.

Du Wang seized the opportunity to use the strange itch on her, then threw the longsword to Mu Mu and took out a pistol from his waist.

The attackers in the air turned green with fear upon seeing this.

Hey!

How can someone be so shameless?

However, since he dared to come alone to assassinate, he must have been prepared.

The birdsong rang out again, and the attacker flew out without any leverage.

Du Wang frowned and pulled the trigger repeatedly, but the opponent's flight speed was even faster.

Just as the other party was about to escape, a loud eagle cry rang out from the horizon.

A majestic gray eagle swooped in diagonally, catching up with the attacker at an even faster speed, and engaged it in combat.

Seeing this, Du Wang breathed a sigh of relief.

The team's reinforcements have finally arrived.

That's right, he had already reported his actions to Captain Chen yesterday morning.

Upon learning that someone wanted to form a team to deal with the demon ranked tenth on the leaderboard, Captain Chen specially sent Liu Qiang to secretly follow them.

On the one hand, it is to prevent wild superhumans from escaping demons and causing greater harm.

On the other hand, it was also to protect Du Wang, the only mutated natal spirit in Nancheng.

Unexpectedly, the snake demon died quickly, but attackers appeared one after another.

"Are you alright?" Du Wang asked.

"It's nothing." Mumu's attention was focused on the fierce battle on the horizon.

Du Wang looked at the strange face lying on the ground and found that blood was flowing from its throat, and it was already dead.
