Chapter 1369 Eleven. Counterfeiters

  The eldest son of Abyss Demon, Mayfly Demon, disappeared after coming to the surface.

  At that time, it was the end of the old era, the beginning of the weird era, and the time when weird invaded.

  Coincidentally, Midnight City is located in the west of Gloomy Fields, Ghost Town is located in the west of Midnight City, and the Tomb of the Unknown is located in the west of Ghost Town.

   They form a straight line on the map.

  How is the demonic feature of the second neighbor related to the mayfly demon?

  Thinking made Lu Li escape from the shadow of "Vicious Slime Mushroom Soup". He is thus aware of the defect of the body, or rather of being alive: the senses cloud his judgement.

  When you become a ghost, you only have emotions.

   Even when he was under the mental shock of "food", Lu Li had thoughts that shouldn't have surfaced: Claire's cooking skills are as bad as Anna's. Is it possible that Claire is Anna?

  From the restaurant to the basement entrance, the closed basement was used by Lu Li as a cage for his new neighbors.

   When encountering it, its scream seems to be calling its companions, and the closed basement can block the screaming.

   Squeak—

  Lu Li just pushed open the basement door, when the whimpering wind brought Claire here.

   "Interrogation? I'm good at this."

   Claire volunteered.

   But Lu Li can't use it. After entering the basement, close the door, release the dream to capture the neighbor, and guide the mottled dream to present what he wants.

  The memory of neighbors is quickly traced, predation, killing, growth...

It has never left Midnight City until the dream retreated to the time of its birth. The newborn neighbor was wrapped in slime and flew clumsily in the dark sky. It turned its head and looked at the countless shadows and dark depths that were also flying by. A bloated and surging lair of flesh and blood.

  Lu Li asked Claire, "Do you know this lair of flesh and blood?"

   "I haven't seen it, it's not in the south of Midnight City..." Claire told Lu Li to go back to the scene of the Flesh Lair, and observed the outline of the World Tree in the distance after standing still.

   "It's east of Midnight City."

   As facing the unknown direction in the depths of the dark field, the erosion in the east of Midnight City is the worst.

  This neighbor comes from the east, a brood that breeds weirdness.

   "What are you going to do?" Claire asked.

  The long and narrow shadow cast into the basement at this moment, and Ophelia followed.

   "On hold for now."

  Finding the Mayfly Demon is not their top priority, the only thing Lu Li can do is to tell Abyss City what he found.

  They can help a lot if they want to come over.

   "What did you find?" Lu Li asked about the situation of Clare Castle.

"What else can it be? Weird has occupied the castle without accident, and we have to regain it." Claire clenched her fists like a passionate young man, "Then establish your own order, capture the other three districts of Midnight City, and become the uncrowned king !"

   "Is she always like this?"

  Lu Li looked at Ophelia, she was not like this when she came out of Midnight City.

  Ophelia replied hoarsely: "Dean Chris said that souls will change their temperament because they become weird."

   "Don't speak ill of me in front of me!"

  Claire blocked Ophelia's mouth with the wind in dissatisfaction, and said to Lu Li: "Do you want to solve the soul of Midnight City, or solve the swamp at a deeper level? Occupying Midnight City is the prerequisite."

  Lu Li neither admitted nor refused.

  Claire guessed what he was thinking: "Then let's start in the south."

  The weakest city in the south—one of the forces, the castle died and left, and Lu Li once died together with many strange things.

  The west is strangely disliked and avoided because it is close to the edge of the dark field and the town of the gods. If the south was not weakened by Lu Li, it would be the easiest area to attack.

  The north is similar to the former south. Only the west faces the unknown of the barren land. No one knows what is surging and what exists in that urban area.

  The only information is the continuous breeding of weird broods.

   "We'd better act separately next," Claire said.

"why?"

   "Same as here, I am not suitable to appear around the castle."

  Claire's strength cannot be concealed from the forces in the south and the power that can be traced back to the source.

   But Lu Li guessed that Claire might have some personal matters to do.

   "I'm with you," Ophelia said.

   "No, Lu Li needs your help." Claire shook the alchemy potion, "I'm in charge of finding information for you."

   "It's waking up."

   Ophelia said suddenly.

  The bat wings of the brood brood trembled.

  Lu Li simply constructed a simple dream for his neighbor who was on the verge of waking up: it was surrounded by cold and hunger after birth, and a silhouette in a black robe with the same figure as Lu Li rescued it, gave it food and warmth, and made it grow from ignorance.

  Using dreams to imitate the outline of the brood behind.

  Dreams are easier to render emotions than reality. Because every existence in the dream is like a new life, free from dust.

   Then when it wakes up, it sees the silhouette in front of the dream that took care of itself tenderly, and sees the brood where it was born is behind the silhouette.

  The subtle influence of the dream and the brood make it close, and the devil's contract restrains its behavior.

  Lu Li didn't have to worry about his new neighbor rebelling.

  The nest brood restrained its wings, no longer showing hostility towards Lu Li and Claire, and let out sharp and subtle screams.

   "Little Remi, it regards you as an older brother."

   "Let's get out."

  Eileen was not here, Lu Li couldn't understand what it was saying.

   Tens of minutes later, Lu Li, Claire, and Elena gathered in the backyard.

  A tomb that was filled not long ago stayed here quietly, the barren soil was damp after being covered with creepers.

   It's weird that the subordinates are not here, and the following conversation is not suitable for them to know.

   "The weird leader who calls himself 'Viscount' took a group of fake gardeners, fake chefs, and a fake me to occupy the castle. By the way, they are preparing to recruit creep monsters as fake farmers."

  Claire describes a group of fakes:

   "They are imitating us even in power, the viscount doesn't know, the head maid is flying around with the smelly wind, the gardener—"

   "Can you smell it?"

  Lu Li suddenly interrupted Claire, looking at her quietly.

   "...I guessed it!" Claire stammered and quibbled, "Don't interrupt me! The gardener is sewing a pile of... rotten meat. I don't have a chance to get close to the Viscount, but I guess he is also imitating his mother's strength."

  Claire suggested a frontal defeat—it has nothing to do with them pretending to be their mother or themselves, sneaking into the castle through secret passages is no different from announcing their arrival, and it is best to let the weirdness around them know and witness: this place has changed hands.

   "You can beat even real mothers, and it won't be hard for you to deal with fake mothers."

  Lu Li doesn't need to worry about being exposed—the characteristics of the dreamer can be disguised as other powers.

   "Start after dawn, with weird rules."

   After Lu Li agreed, Claire cheered:

   "Kill the past!"
