Chapter 575 Hou Muyao

Time was too short, it would be sent first and then revised.

A new life had already been conceived in the Tentacle Woman.

Now all she needed to do was implant that new life into the body of the nurse, and their race would have two individuals, capable of nurturing new life again.

However, as soon as her tentacles extended, they were severed into two pieces, and Wen Wen also stood in front of the nurse.

He had just confirmed that the nurse was innocent. As a demon hunter, when he had the ability, Wen Wen could not stand by and watch humans be killed by monsters.

"Are you going to stop me? I just want our race to continue..." the Tentacle Woman said pitifully.

"Your race has nothing to do with me. Also, don't pretend to be pitiful in a human guise. We both know you don't look like this," Wen Wen sneered, then pointed at her. A black energy radiated out and struck the Tentacle Woman.

A monster that didn't even meet the standard for the Disaster level could be easily killed by Wen Wen with just a finger.

But to Wen Wen's surprise, after enduring Wen Wen's attack, the Tentacle Woman was unharmed. From her bewildered expression, she didn't know why she was fine either.

"It's this space that's preventing me from killing her... Safely sending out guests might also be one of the agreements between the deceased and that monster."

"You're quite lucky, so I won't kill you for now."

Wen Wen let out his black hair, binding the Tentacle Woman like a black zongzi, rendering her immobile.

Then Wen Wen looked at the others. They were still reminiscing as if they hadn't noticed what had happened here, which was likely also an effect of this space.

Except for Wen Wen, everyone else had inevitably fallen into their own little worlds, with no inclination to pay attention to others.

Wen Wen walked to the spot where the Tentacle Man had disappeared and observed the surrounding soil.

Both when he disappeared and when the raincoat man's fiancée disappeared, the surrounding Red Spider Lilies became more luxuriant, and this space had strengthened slightly.

Although it was only a negligible trace, it was enough for Wen Wen to notice.

By observing the two targets, Wen Wen had understood the purpose of this space.

"It finds souls with obsessions from the gray fog layer through some method and leads them into this space. This should be simple for this space, which is suspected to be in the gray fog layer."

"Then, through these souls, it obtains specific names and issues letters to those people to fulfill the wishes of these souls."

"After fulfilling the wishes, those souls will voluntarily dedicate themselves to this space, making this space increasingly powerful. This is the secret of this space!"

Souls themselves possess immense power, otherwise, demons would not need to collect special souls.

However, this power could only be obtained through the power of a contract or through the voluntary dedication of the soul.

Demons obtained human souls through contracts, while this space obtained them by fulfilling the dying wishes of souls...

After seeing through this, although the space remained mysterious, it no longer exuded the eerie atmosphere it did before.

"However, if that's the case, I probably won't see her anymore."

Wen Wen sighed softly, then flew up and came before the few entangled high school students.

Since he had confirmed that the Deer Head Monster's objective was to absorb human souls, he could not stand idly by.

Those souls might be willingly dedicating themselves, and for them, it should be entirely worth it, but just as the police could not stand by and watch someone commit suicide, Wen Wen could not stand by and watch them self-destruct.

If the trench coat man had known that his fiancée's soul would disappear forever because he came to see her for the last time, he probably wouldn't have been willing.

However, what surprised Wen Wen was that when he arrived, the four high school students were sitting together playing cards, with innocent smiles on their faces, which was different from what he had imagined.

The girl who was dragged here was named Xin Xue, and she was a classmate of Zheng Han and Li Youyou.

Xin Xue and Li Youyou were best friends, and both boys liked Li Youyou. The four of them often played cards together like this.

One day, the four of them went hiking together. The two boys went to a small shop in the mountains to buy supplies. When they returned, they saw Xin Xue standing at the edge of a cliff, glowing with shimmering spots, while Li Youyou had already fallen off the cliff.

Therefore, the two boys were convinced that Xin Xue had used her superpowers to kill Li Youyou and had resented her ever since, treating her as an enemy.

When they came here this time, they learned from Li Youyou that Xin Xue had actually tried to save Li Youyou with her abilities, but it was too late.

Xin Xue also allowed Zheng Han to tie her up and bring her here out of guilt.

After the misunderstanding was resolved, the four of them reconciled and started playing cards again.

Wen Wen stood by and watched, feeling a little more relaxed:

"I have to say, the stories of high school students are purer than the previous two groups. However, Li Youyou's wish should be to help them resolve their misunderstandings. After they finish playing cards, she should disappear."

"To save her... I need to capture her soul into the containment facility when the card game ends!"

There shouldn't be any problems here for now. Wen Wen shifted his gaze to Hou Murong and Hou Muyao on the other side. The two of them were already at each other's throats, on the verge of fighting.

Hou Murong's ability seemed to be to release some specific superpowers through talismans he drew, and Hou Muyao's ability was similar to Hou Murong's.

As Wen Wen approached the two of them, he found their conversation a bit off.

Hou Murong said excitedly, "We agreed yesterday. I only wanted to experience one day. Now I'm back, why won't you agree to return?"

"Do you want to stay here by yourself? You don't understand the horror of death, and I don't need you to die for me!"

Hou Muyao remained silent, tears streaming down his cheeks, but he still did not agree to Hou Murong's request.

From their brief conversation, Wen Wen understood the relationship between the two.

Hou Muyao's last wish was to return to the outside world for one day, and he only needed one day.

Due to the connection between the twins and the power of this space, they had successfully swapped bodies.

Hou Muyao, using Hou Murong's body, experienced a day of being alive.

Today, he returned as promised, wanting to return his brother to his body and return to the real world, while he would rest eternally in this strange space.

But to his surprise, Hou Murong disagreed to swap bodies, wanting his brother to live on in his body in the outside world.

Hou Muyao naturally refused, hence the argument.

Wen Wen finally understood why Hou Murong's body had the stench of a corpse, because Hou Muyao's soul resided in his body, and Hou Muyao had been killed by a rotting corpse monster.
