Chapter 400
At this very moment, in the home of false "Hain," Bai Yan and Mu Ling were still hiding here.
They observed the multitude of Doomsday Race emerging from the darkness.
The Doomsday Race all took out their "Black Remnant" talismans from their pockets, then retrieved a wriggling "Skeuomorphism" from within.
"A very convenient prop... like something similar to a storage ring," Bai Yan remarked to himself.
Next, the Doomsday Race allowed the black "Skeuomorphism" slime to cover their bodies, gradually changing their appearance both facially and physically.
These beings, who originally had blue skin and a tall, slender physique, began to undergo a gradual transformation, turning into 'humans' with normal body sizes and skin tones.
"They wanted to blend into Tatsumi City..." Bai Yan whispered to Mu Ling's ear.
The fragrance of lilacs filled the air, once again entering the nostrils.
Mu Ling nodded and said,
"It can be seen that there is such a plan, and this kind of behavior is not uncommon among cultists. Perhaps, they are preparing for some terrible conspiracy..."
As Mu Ling answered, she felt a little strange inside.
During the few hours she spent with Mr. Profligate, she always felt a sense of familiarity about him.
Mainly, it was his eyes.
His gaze, where had she seen it before...
Where could it possibly be?
Mu Ling kept pondering in her heart, but she couldn't find an answer.
Bai Yan said slowly, "Let's leave the Doomsday Race alone for now and see what they really want to do... We still have two days left for our investigation, yes, in a way, we have plenty of time."
"Hmmm."
Mu Ling nodded silently, without any objection.
"Ding dong!"
Just at that moment, the doorbell in the room rang.
The Doomsday Race inside the house were in the midst of disguising themselves when they were startled by the sudden ringing of the doorbell.
After they had communicated in an ancient and mysterious language, they immediately sent two people to go to the entrance.
In the hands of the two Doomsday Race members, there were black blades, indicating their intention to deal with the people outside.
"Outside was Hain's neighbor!"
Mu Ling's expression changed, and she frowned slightly as she said, "There's an old lady holding eggs, it seems like she's here to give Hain some eggs... Her neighbor used to do this too."
"What should we do? If we leave her alone, the old lady will be in big trouble." fгeewebnovёl.com
Bai Yan, who was standing by, smiled and said,
"Of course, we did it according to your thoughts."
She continued speaking, "Don't worry, we have other ways to uncover the truth... I know, Nightsaber, you won't tolerate the innocent being killed."
"Thank you, Senior Profligate."
Mu Ling nodded gratefully, then took a step forward, and the intense murderous intent made the concealment fail instantly.
She appeared in the room, resembling a vengeful goddess of the night, radiating a fierce aura.
"Hmm?"
A descendant of the Doomsday Race saw Mu Ling and wanted to scream, but in an instant, their head soared into the sky!
The rest of the Doomsday Race all saw Mu Ling, along with their fellow tribe members who had been swiftly killed. In that moment, each person grasped their weapons, attempting to launch an attack on Mu Ling.
All of this happened in just half a second.
Mu Ling's gaze was incredibly calm, with an expressionless face.
Deep Blue World.
In Bai Yan's eyes, only a moment had passed, but after this moment, the entire world became completely calm.
Five seconds, for the incredibly fast Mu Ling, were enough to accomplish a multitude of tasks.
Unfortunately, the power she obtained was only a tiny fraction of the King of Deep Blue's power.
The true "King of Deep Blue," in legends, could freeze the flow of time in the universe for eternity.
"It was all resolved."
Mu Ling looked back at Mr. Profligate, her voice calm, after all, what she did was just something trivial.
Bai Yan nodded gently, then shook his head, smiling as he said, "There is still an important task left undone."
"What important matter?" Mu Ling froze, her expression puzzled.
Bai Yan had a gentle smile on his face as he reached for the door and looked outside.
An old grandma with completely white hair also smiled, looking at him from inside the door.
"Grandma Qian, why are you here again?" Bai Yan feigned surprise.
Grandma smiled and said, "Hain, didn't you say before that the eggs you bought online weren't tasty? Well, guess what, the chickens in the farming area of my hometown in Tatsumi City have started laying eggs, and I brought some for you."
Mu Ling stood frozen for a moment, quickly realizing what had happened. "Mr. Profligate just used magic," she realized in astonishment.
From Grandma's perspective, Bai Yan appeared to be the female Night Watcher of this household, Hain.
As for the real Hain, she lay unconscious on the ground, unaware of her surroundings. She had been taken over by Skeuomorphism for several days, with her fate hanging in the balance.
Bai Yan's face lit up with a smile as he happily accepted the eggs. "Thank you so much, Grandma Qian! Please come in and have a seat," he exclaimed with great excitement.
Mu Ling couldn't hold it together any longer.
Inside, there were corpses and blood all over the floor.
She unconsciously brushed her foot against the bloodstains on the floor, but the gruesome scene throughout the entire room couldn't be hidden.
"Okay, okay."
However, once the old grandmother entered the house, she turned a blind eye to all the mess and happily interacted with Mr. Profligate throughout the entire time.
So it's the effect of magic? Mu Ling wondered in her heart.
Actually, it was the interference of the power of the soul.
How can I put it, Bai Yan is still the same... Xiao Nai Gou is really useful, that's for sure.
After coaxing away the old grandma, Bai Yan looked at Mu Ling standing beside him and picked up a bag of eggs in his hand.
"Eat?"
"..."
Mu Ling had no words in response and muttered to herself, "Maybe we should clean up this place first."
"Well, that's true," he nodded.
After finishing the cleanup, the two of them calmly sat down.
Mu Ling, who had taken over Hain's body, carefully lifted her onto the sofa where she remained unconscious.
Because the body actually belonged to Hain herself, Mu Ling didn't choose to kill her.

And even Huang Feng, who had been controlled by Bai Yan before, was not directly killed.
These people might actually still have a chance of being saved. At least from a physical perspective, they appeared to be almost completely unharmed.
"Please wait a moment."
Bai Yan smiled as he walked towards the kitchen. Soon, he brought two plates of omelette rice and placed them in front of Mu Ling.
She stood frozen in surprise.
Mu Ling gazed at the pancake and tomato sauce, which formed the shape of a cat, and suddenly felt a strange sensation.
In front of her stood Mr. Profligate, and he seemed oddly familiar to himself.
"How do you know what I love to eat?"
"Secret."
"..."
Although Mu Ling felt very strange, she didn't pursue further and quietly began to eat.
At the same time, Bai Yan was also enjoying his own serving of Cat Cat Rice Omelette.
Sure enough, I still don't like eating sweet things...
Bai Yan shook his head.
When both of them finished eating, Bai Yan took out the "Black Remnant" amulet from his hand and said calmly, "During the time just now, I have deciphered the method of using it."
"There is a saying that goes, 'Without entering the tiger's den, how can one catch the tiger's cub?' Perhaps, going directly to the enemy's lair will bring us closer to the truth."
"Next, let's journey together to the depths."
