This Text Adventure Game is definitely poisonous-Chapter 941 - 448: The Secrets of the Black Clothed One_2

Even so, there were still very few responders, for two reasons. First, because this is not the Star Spirit World, there are no opportunities for resurrection, and not many people are willing to risk their lives to fight against the inter-dimensional creatures for a meager reward;

Secondly, due to the widespread availability of Spatial Bags, most people lacked a sense of crisis, believing that even if monsters came, they could simply hide in their bags and keep their little homes safe and sound. When there’s an escape route, how many people would willingly run to the front lines to fight for their lives?

It was under this mindset that there was a shortage of people everywhere.

"Mu You? Still no news?" Zhang Yang asked again.

"No, it’s been a day and a half, and we still can’t reach anyone..." Liu Chen sighed.

"What’s going on?" Zhang Yang frowned involuntarily.

He knew that there were many in the city who clearly had the capability to fight but chose to hide away for fear of hardship or death, waiting for the disaster to pass.

He couldn’t really blame such people—it’s only human nature—but he believed that Mu You would definitely not be like that. This could only mean that Mu You was likely entangled in some matter, or could even have already...

"I hope I’m just overthinking it..." Zhang Yang sighed and shook his head, pushing away these thoughts.

"Old Zhang!"

In the midst of his thoughts, Liu Chen suddenly cried out in alarm.

Zhang Yang quickly turned his head to look.

He saw through the dust ahead, three huge figures breaking through and heading straight for their defensive line.

"A150 creature, Iris Bird, two stars!"

"A151 creature, Six-eyed Lizard, two stars!"

"A152 creature, Mud Accumulator, two stars!"

Liu Chen rapidly read the information displayed on the screen of the device in his hands.

Thanks to a day and a half of preparation, all nine Black Hole sites had established a complete real-time monitoring system. The instant any monster fell, the system would capture its image, assign a number, and search the database for the corresponding biological data, including the creature’s attributes, weaknesses, recommended countermeasures, etc., to relay to the frontline personnel as quickly as possible.

It was also thanks to this comprehensive detection system that the pressure on the defenders was greatly reduced.

Just like now, the information on the three new creatures from the City K Black Hole was transmitted to Liu Chen’s receiver in less than ten seconds.

However, the information still caught everyone by surprise.

"Damn it, two-star ones, and three at once? Why are they all charging at us?" Zhang Yang’s temples throbbed.

Even when two-star creatures came before, they came one by one, so even with fewer people, they could still hold on.

But now three had come all at once, and they seemed to be teamed up, rushing straight toward them. How were they supposed to deal with this?

"It must be because of the crowds..." Liu Chen muttered to himself.

City K, being adjacent to the Black Hole, was also one of the high-risk areas. After the global anomalies, the residents of City K began to evacuate en masse. However, due to the rushed nature of the evacuation, only about half had left so far, and a large number of civilians still remained in the city. For these man-eating monsters, the more crowded the area with people, the more abundant the food.

"Quick, fall back the defensive line!" Seeing the creatures rapidly approaching, Zhang Yang shouted urgently.

"Should we really retreat?" Liu Chen hesitated, as retreating would expand the defensive line, necessitating even more manpower.

"No choice, we absolutely can’t handle this situation. If we don’t retreat now, we’ll just lose manpower for nothing. Let’s retreat and wait for support..." Zhang Yang made a quick decision, taking out his walkie-talkie to give the order.

However, just at that moment, no one noticed that atop a nearby abandoned building, two figures, one large and one small, landed one after another.

The bigger one was a female Forest Elf, and the smaller one was a little girl wearing a cat-faced mask.

After landing, the little girl immediately took out a square box and held it in her arms, lifting the lid: "Meng Meng, smash it!"

"Roar!"

A giant black shadow surged out instantly, and amidst whirling black mist, it landed on the ground. With an angry roar, it charged towards the trio of monsters. Swiping its claw, it struck the Slime Monster closest to it.

With one swipe, the Slime Monster’s body swayed like jelly, wobbling non-stop.

Dizzy from the slap, the Slime Monster regained its senses only to be infuriated. It spread its body like bat wings and lunged at the Shadow Ghost, apparently trying to envelop it, but unfortunately, the Shadow Ghost leaped back to avoid it and continued to swipe its claws. The Slime Monster’s surface was quickly torn apart, and although it could reconstitute itself rapidly, stinking muck and toxic gases were continuously spewing from inside it.

"Shadow, Shadow Ghost!"

Zhang Yang’s pupils shrank as he looked at the newly appeared creature, his heart almost stopping.

Because City K had once been attacked by a Shadow Ghost, as the head of City K, he was particularly sensitive to the Shadow Ghost.

Especially since the Shadow Ghost chose to emerge at this crucial moment of extreme danger, it made Zhang Yang feel like everything was going dark before his eyes.

"But it seems to be here to help us?" Liu Chen, who did not have the same psychological shadow regarding the Shadow Ghost, immediately assessed the situation.

Reminded by Liu Chen, Zhang Yang also realized this and quickly swept his gaze toward the direction the Shadow Ghost came from, quickly spotting the two figures on the high-rise building. The little girl, in particular, was waving her fists and jumping around energetically as if she were cheering on the Shadow Ghost.
