The bullet flew through the air and hit the black shadow's left shoulder instantly.

With a muffled sound, the bullet penetrated the black shadow's coat and penetrated into the black shadow's body.

Then with a slight sound, the bullet squashed by He Ao was squeezed out by the squirming black flesh and fell out.

He Ao once again glanced at the black shadow with his spiritual consciousness.

The state of this black shadow is very strange. The energy intensity of his body is not strong, probably equivalent to that of a D-level transcendent, but his physical fitness, agility and defense displayed are like C-level.

It feels like a pseudo-C class that was born after D-class was specially strengthened in some way.

And this is different from the strengthening potion developed by Qunxing Pharmaceutical in the dungeon world.

The strengthening potion directly raises a person's energy intensity to C level, and then forcibly improves the physical quality. It works from the inside to the outside, and the performance of this black shadow is more like from the outside to the inside.

From a stability point of view, Black Shadow's improvement is obviously more stable. People who take strengthening potions will not survive that long.

But no matter which one of these two types it is, it is an obvious improvement by external forces, not a normal promotion of the person himself.

He Ao's hands were placed behind his back on top of the pirate treasure chest on his waist.

All external improvements must have a source. The main world does not have a powerful technology consortium like Qunxing Pharmaceutical.

At the same time, he was ready to activate super memory.

At this moment, the black shadow, which failed to succeed and was blocked by the gang youths, turned around again and fled forward.

He actually didn't know why he was running away, but he sensed the extremely terrifying danger from the young man behind him, and his instinct drove him to keep running away.

In front of him was Alifia pushing a stall cart.

This alley is not big, and Alifia's stall truck is placed at the intersection, blocking most of the road.

No matter what you do now, it will definitely affect your escape speed.

The black shadow glanced at Alifia, jumped up, raised his feet, and flew over the stall truck.

His body is extremely light, 'floating' in the air like a bird.

Soon, he reached the top of Alifia's head,

At this time, he suddenly reached out his hand and grabbed Alifia's head.

At the same time, Elifia felt her body 'boiling' in an instant, as if all the blood in her body was about to break through the barrier of her skin and splash out.

And at this moment, a white cold light flashed past his eyes, and suddenly cut off the hand that was reaching for her at the wrist.

Blood with a green glow splashed out and landed on her dull cheeks.

At the same time, she felt a huge force grab her shoulders and throw her away.

Through the dim and dark moonlight, she saw the young man, who was about the same age as her, standing in front of her holding a white bone sword.

After leaving the black shadow, her boiling blood gradually calmed down. She adjusted her posture in the air and landed smoothly on the ground not far away in a rather strange shape.

"what······"

She opened her mouth to say something, but at this moment, the black figure whose wrist was cut off roared, interrupting her words.

The black shadow rushed out like a hyena, grabbed the palm that was still flying in the air, put it back on his wrist, and turned to look at He Ao.

With a dark squirming movement, his palm and wrist rejoined each other.

At this time, He Ao could clearly see the complete appearance of this black figure.

The black shadow seemed to be a middle-aged man with a square face. His cheek was divided into two halves. One side still maintained a human shape, while the other side became a creeping shadow that barely looked like a human face.

.

He has a pair of brown eyes, but the depths of his pupils are covered by dark shadows.

He Ao stood in front of Alifia's stall cart with the bone sword in hand, the tip of the sword pointed at the ground.

At this time, the distance between him and the black shadow was close enough. There was no point in the black shadow escaping. Instead, he gave his back to He Ao so that He Ao could attack better.

Black Shadow seemed to understand this.

He opened his mouth and roared, and the shadows on his face trembled like water waves.

His roar is somewhat like a hyena's whine, but it is deeper than a hyena's voice.

Just hearing this voice, Alifia, who was standing behind He Ao, felt a pain in her brain.

The black shadow glanced at Alifia, jumped up, raised both hands, and grabbed He Ao.

At this moment, his hands had squirmed and turned into pitch-black claws. The sharpest tip of the claws was like an all-devouring shadow, heading straight for He Ao's neck.

He Ao raised his sword and blocked the blow.

At this moment, the distance between him and the black shadow was extremely close.

He activated his super memory and placed a mark on the black shadow, trying to sense the black shadow's thinking.

However, what came into his mind was just an instinctive bloodthirsty killing intent.

This black shadow has lost most of its rationality and only relies on instinct and a small amount of remaining thinking to seek good fortune and avoid disaster.

He Ao used force and flicked the black shadow back.

Being irrational means that this black shadow can no longer communicate, and He Ao has no way to get some useful information directly from him.

But the lack of reason itself means some information.

He Ao could have a premonition that this "publicly funded trip" might not go so smoothly.

The "mystery" caused by the arrival of the ruins this time may be stronger than ever before.

But at this moment, when the black figure saw that He Ao had easily blocked his attack, he roared in a low voice, and the flesh and blood attached to his coat began to squirm.

The hazy street lights outside the hazy street fell on his body, as if it were scattered into a bottomless abyss, and everything was swallowed up.

At the same time, his body began to become thin and thin, slowly levitating, floating in the air like a piece of tissue paper.

His body seemed to turn pure black, and all the light was absorbed by his body, blending with the night.

Standing far away, you can't tell the difference between him and the night.

Sure enough, this guy can fly to a certain extent.

He Ao held up the bone sword and confirmed his thoughts. Flying in the air would naturally leave no trace on the ground.

At this moment, the black shadow has been completely distorted into a paper-like monster. This monster still maintains a barely human shape. It seems that his 'head' can also see his cheeks that have been 'photographed' into a flat surface.

There was a pious and crazy smile spreading on his cheeks.

A series of extended shadow-like limbs stretched out from his body, swaying gently in the air, and then contracted together again.

Deep, low and terrifying murmurs echoed in He Ao's ears, seeming to exhort him to return to the embrace of the night.

Alifia stood behind He Ao and subconsciously took half a step back, watching the strange and grotesque scene of this man twisting into a monster.

She felt that some of the concepts she had established since birth were shattered at this moment.

At this moment, the monster's body suddenly curled up and merged into the dark night.

At this moment, in Elefia's perception, the monster disappeared from this world.

Then the next second, her body suddenly tensed up.

She didn't see anything, nor did she feel the flowing wind, but the instinct she had developed through practicing martial arts for a long time flashed a fatal alarm in her mind, driving her to squat slightly and jump back suddenly.

However, it was too late now.

A pitch-black, still-squirming 'black curtain' suddenly fell in front of her, and the cheek that was half flesh and blood was so close to her.

The pious and crazy smile on her cheeks filled her field of vision.

At this moment, she suddenly felt that the night was the eternal destination of human beings. The hideous and terrifying monster in front of her was the perfect form, while those humans with limbs that walked naturally were twisted and irregular monsters.

The blood in her body boiled.

She is about to bloom into a bright red flower and become a sacrifice to the endless night.

At this moment, a ray of pure white light streaked from bottom to top, across the pitch-black night, splitting the pure darkness, and the light of the stars spilled from the crack.

Elifia seemed to have had all her strength taken away, and fell to the ground, with light green blood splashing on her cheeks.

The monster that was divided into two roared and wanted to gather towards Elifia again. He Ao walked calmly in front of Elifia, and the stars reflected the cold light on the bone sword.

He lowered his head and glanced at Elifia, then turned around and struck out with his sword. Pure white light streaked across the night sky, suddenly splitting the dark shadow apart again.

Countless twisted energy exploded in the shadow fragments, and finally fell to the ground, turning into bright red dust that exuded a disgusting smell.

He Ao turned around and stared at Alifia's frightened face. The power of super memory briefly touched the girl's soul, calming her emotions and checking whether there was any residual mysterious power attached to her soul.

All this happened in the blink of an eye. Finally, he took back his strength and said calmly,

"This is the extraordinary world you are pursuing."

Then he put away his bone sword and disappeared into the depths of the night.

Alifia stared blankly at He Ao's disappearing figure, the indescribable ravings still seeming to echo in her mind.

Fear filled her heart, and she lowered her head and looked at her trembling hands.
