Chapter 487: Crisis During the Day
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Xiao Shi quietly observed these townspeople. Apart from being in their normal state during the day, the moon mark on their glabella was also sealed during the day.
“In other words, they have no combat ability during the day. Only at night, when they turn into corpses, will their moon seal erupt with powerful strength.” Xiao Shi was enlightened. This situation made him feel very strange. It was probably not a common thing in the previous Youyue Dynasty. “Apart from the mayor, everyone in this town seems to be the same.”
Xiao Shi was deep in thought. Once these townspeople were unable to protect themselves during the day, then he would have to be even more careful in protecting them.
Although Xiao Shi had yet to confirm if these townspeople would bring punishment to him after they died, he did not dare to take the risk. He could only ensure that there were no casualties according to the safest method.
“At least I can be sure that these townspeople won’t turn into corpses and stab me in the back during the day. Then the crisis during the day might not have originated from the town.” Xiao Shi had just had this thought when he suddenly looked up as if he had sensed something.
Swoosh!
He rushed out of the courtyard like a bolt of lightning, and arrived at the entrance of the town. He stared into the distance with a serious expression.
Bang!
Bang!
The ground shook rhythmically. And it kept getting stronger. Soon, a huge creature appeared in Xiao Shi’s vision. It was a huge creature that was six to seven meters tall and covered in black scales.
In terms of form, it was somewhat similar to the alligator turtle. There was a black shell covered in spikes on its back. But there was only one huge pupil on its face. Its pupil was like a crescent moon, exuding a ferocious and bloody aura.
There was also a figure standing on the head of this huge beast. It was a man wearing a light yellow martial arts suit and a wide bamboo hat on his head that covered his face. He was slender and carried a long sword on his back.
Bang!
After the beast arrived a hundred meters in front of Xiao Shi, it stopped moving. Xiao Shi stared at the man on the giant beast’s head. The man’s eyes under the bamboo hat were also staring at Xiao Shi.
“I didn’t expect that there would really be someone who dared to stop my Gen Mountain Sect from eliminating evil. Since you want to die, I’ll fulfill your wish.” The man’s cold voice sounded.
“Cut the crap. I took someone’s money to help them out. 1 don’t care what sect you belong to. If you want to enter the town, you have to step over my corpse.” Xiao Shi could not help but say coldly.
Through the conversation between the two parties, he gradually realized that the identity he played this time seemed to be specialized in solving trouble for others. It was somewhat similar to a mercenary. And this small town was a small town where evil existed. It was not difficult to tell from the changes in the night of the townspeople.
The man who came today seemed to represent a powerful “righteous sect” that had specially come to clean up this evil town.
Xiao Shi was hired by the town to protect this town.
“Does that mean I’ve become a villain?” Xiao Shi did not know whether to laugh or cry. There was nothing he could do about it. Not only could he not make a choice about his identity in this imaginary world, but he could not even make a decision on his own. The only thing he could decide seemed to be fighting.
“Heh, interesting. It’s been many years since I met someone who dares to challenge our Gen Mountain Sect.” The man sneered. He suddenly squatted down. He pressed his right hand on the head of the huge beast under him.
Buzz!
Instantly, a purple-green light appeared in the crescent pupils of the beast. The moment this light lit up, Xiao Shi felt his heart beat faster, and his vision became blurry. He actually felt suffocated by the lack of oxygen. It was to the extent that his brain felt dizzy. The scenery in his vision began to show double images. This was a powerful method that he had never come into contact with.
Swoosh!
Almost at the moment when the huge beast’s eyes lit up, the man from the Gen Mountain Sect had already rushed out of the giant beast’s head and charged at Xiao Shi. Xiao Shi’s eyes were filled with the other party’s phantoms, and he could not see where the other party’s true body was.
In an instant, the man from the Gen Mountain Sect arrived in front of Xiao Shi. His two fingers merged, and the two fingers were black as they struck Xiao Shi’s throat. However, what hit was the remnant phantom of Xiao Shi’s high-speed movement.
“Hmm?” The man frowned slightly. He did not expect the other party to be so fast!
Xiao Shi quickly retreated. He was at a disadvantage when facing the enemies in this imaginary world. Due to systemic problems, his spiritual sense and soul power could not affect the people in this illusionary world.
However, the people in this illusionary world could deal with him through the power system of this world. In this state, he could not fight back at all. He could only rely on his speed to dodge. When Xiao Shi dodged another attack from the man from the Gen Mountain Sect, there was frustration in his eyes.
He raised his finger and pointed at the spot between his brows under the bamboo hat, causing the moon mark on his glabella to emit a pitch-black light that lingered around his entire body.
Swoosh!
The speed of the man from the Gen Mountain Sect increased exponentially. It was like a black light as it shot towards Xiao Shi.. “Let’s see how you dodge!”
