Mu You continued to check the experimental records on other pages, and suddenly felt some movement coming from his body. He lowered his head and took off a backpack from his waist.

This is a storage backpack that he keeps specially for entering the house. It can only be opened in the star spirit world.

At this time, there was a sound of 'knocking on the door' inside the backpack.

Among the people he knew, the only one who could do such a thing was Ye Rumeng.

Mu You opened the opening of the backpack, and sure enough, the little girl's head immediately came out of the opening of the backpack.

"Muyou, are you going to find my sister soon?" Ye Rumeng looked at Muyou expectantly and asked.

Mu You was stunned: "How did you know?"

"I don't know either. I just suddenly felt sleepy just now. When I woke up, I was already in this backpack..."

The little girl climbed out of the backpack as she spoke, looking at the surrounding environment doubtfully: "This place... feels so familiar, I seem to have been here before..."

As the little girl spoke, she kept walking around, observing everything nearby, and soon became more and more certain about this. She turned back and looked at Mu You in surprise: "Yes, this is it. The last time I saw my sister was here...

I remembered that my sister and I were once imprisoned here...right in front!" The little girl suddenly pointed to the darkness connected to the front of the high platform.

"Muyou, my sister must still be here, let's go and rescue her!" Ye Rumeng hurriedly turned back to Muyou and begged.

However, when she turned around, she found that Mu You was looking at her feet with a dazed expression.

"What's wrong?" Ye Rumeng wondered.

Mu You shook his head: "Nothing, just lead the way."

"Oh... follow me, it's right over here!" The little girl didn't doubt that he was there. She took out a flashlight from nowhere, shined it into the darkness ahead, and rushed in. She also waved back, beckoning the two of them to follow quickly.

Above, the shadow stretches into a long line behind her.

"Muyou, this is..."

Lin Xue had also noticed the change in the little girl at this time, and looked at Mu You in surprise.

Mu You shook his head helplessly at her, and Lin Xue quickly realized something. Without asking any more questions, the two of them followed her silently.

In the Gu pool below, the shadow ghost who was swatting at bugs also noticed something. He paused his movements and looked up at the high platform. When he saw the figure of the little girl rushing into the darkness in front of him, he immediately let out a low cry, and then

Not caring about the bugs, he hurriedly climbed up to the high platform and chased the three of them.

Ye Rumeng ran into the darkness alone, trotting through the dark path with ease and came to the floor of a hospital.

Looking at the double dormitories on both sides of the corridor, more and more familiar things appear before my eyes.

"That's right, it's right here..."

Ye Rumeng's eyes lit up. The familiar environment reminded her of more and more lost memories, the things she had experienced here, and the room where she and her sister lived together.

The room is at the end of this corridor.

Ye Rumeng hurriedly looked deep into the corridor. Sure enough, there was a familiar pillow symbol carved on the door of the deepest room.

The little girl's face bloomed with joy, she couldn't wait to rush over and opened the door.

"Sister, let me save..."

The sound stopped suddenly.

The house was not as bright and clean as she remembered, and it was filled with all kinds of children's toys and supplies.

Instead, it has become an empty ruin, with tiles disintegrating and broken glass scattered all over the floor. All objects are covered with dust and have obviously been abandoned for a long time.

The little girl looked at this scene blankly, unable to recover for a while.

If my sister is not here, where can she be?

"Roar!"

At this time, a roar came from the side.

Ye Rumeng subconsciously turned around and looked. On the other side of the corner corridor, a three-meter-tall shadow ghost stood in front of him. After discovering the living person here, his whole body suddenly exuded strong murderous intent.

.

The next moment, Shadow Ghost rushed towards Ye Rumeng with his teeth and claws open.

"Ah!"

Ye Rumeng was startled and subconsciously stepped back, but tripped over the door frame and fell to the ground.

The shadow ghost in front of him arrived in an instant, waving his sharp claws, his eyes were scarlet, and his oppressive height and monster-like body made Ye Rumeng instinctively close her eyes.

However, just when the shadow ghost's claws were about to fall on Ye Rumeng, another roar sounded from behind.

Immediately afterwards, a larger black shadow rushed from behind the little girl quickly, arriving first, passing by the little girl, and directly threw the shadow ghost in front of him who was about to attack to the ground. With one claw after another, he charged towards the shadow ghost with great anger.

Tearing at the body.

This ordinary shadow ghost was obviously no match for the box shadow ghost. With the help of the box shadow ghost's anger, the ordinary shadow ghost underneath him was soon torn into pieces by it, leaving only a squirming mass in place.

Shadow residue.

The little girl stared blankly at the shadow ghost guarding her, but had no time to speak, because there were already denser roars ahead.

"You finally came back here, on the 14th..."

The little girl and Shadow Ghost both looked up and saw a transparent cylindrical device standing at the end of the corridor ahead, filled with some kind of liquid. At this time, a person was immersed in the device, with a connection between his mouth and nose.

Wearing a respirator and covered with various hoses.

Outside the cylindrical device, there are a large number of shadow ghosts densely scattered, at least hundreds of them. Each shadow ghost is bound by a black chain, and the other end of the chain is all connected to the device.

, like a row of tied-up vicious dogs, guarding the central device.

At this time, the person in the cylinder has opened his eyes, and it was him who made the sound just now.

When Shadow Ghost saw the figure appearing in the distance, he became even more furious, but he did not lose his mind and rushed over.

It's not because it's afraid of a circle of shadow ghosts in the distance, but because the little girl is standing behind it and it can't leave casually.

"I thought you would escape further."

Mu You and Lin Xue also walked out from behind at this time.

Mu You looked at the person sealed in the cylinder in front of him. He was a bald, short, fat, middle-aged man. Although his appearance had changed, he was very sure that this guy was the man behind the scenes who had escaped from Sky City before.

It's just one of his 'skin' images.

"The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. I lost this time. There is no point in escaping. I just didn't expect that you would have the power to suppress the Shadow God..." The middle-aged man in the device looked at the three people in the distance.

Open your mouth.

Lin Xue rang the death knell twice before, detonating the extremely outrageous sin value on his body. Although most of the curse effects were borne by the Shadow God, the Shadow God died before the sin value returned to zero, resulting in residual

The power of the curse still affected him.

The power of the curse can suppress even the level of the Shadow God, let alone ordinary people.

He couldn't escape because at this moment, his level had been directly reduced to the lowest level, and his attributes had all dropped to the lowest point. If he hadn't got into the device in front of him in time that could continuously relieve pain, he would have been cursed continuously.

Suppress and die until the life span is exhausted and disappear completely.

"It's you!"

Ye Rumeng seemed to recognize something at this time, and suddenly pointed at the middle-aged man in the device in front of him and shouted: "I remember, the bad guy who kidnapped me is you! Tell me, where is my sister?"
p>

The middle-aged man ignored her shouting and looked at Mu You's feet.

In his shadow, half of the shadow pom-pom is quietly emerging from his head, secretly observing the world around him.

"It seems that Shadow Pom Pom has chosen you to be its new host." said the middle-aged man.

"Yes." Mu You nodded.

"Then you have to be careful. When it grows up, it will have the power to bite back the host. Be careful that you will encounter the same ending as me in the future." The middle-aged man sneered.

"If you don't feed it, how can it be backlashed? In the end, it's not you who covets the power of God that leads to the backlash." Mu Youyou.

The low-level shadow pom-pom obviously has no ability to resist the host, but as the level increases, its ability will continue to improve, and its wisdom will gradually increase, until it has self-awareness, there will be a possibility of backlash. Therefore, the safest

The method is to not feed it any shadows, or only feed it a limited amount of shadows, keeping it at a lower level and using it as an auxiliary pet.

"You are right. When I first got the shadow pom-pom more than a thousand years ago, I thought the same thing. However, how many people can tolerate getting a shadow pom-pom that can grow infinitely?

Do you want to cultivate it?"

The middle-aged man smiled bitterly and said: "At that time, I was just an ordinary fisherman in the Cook Islands. I didn't have any qualifications to practice magic. I was destined to make a living by fishing for the rest of my life. I lived at the bottom of society on the edge of my lifespan every day. One chance.

By coincidence, I picked up the Shadow Pom Pom and became its host."

"When I found out that this was the shadow of God, I was shocked. I was terrified every day, fearing that God's consciousness would revive. A low-level pariah like me had no power to resist God."

"But as time went by, I gradually discovered that this thing did not show any signs of attacking me. Instead, it provided me with a variety of magical abilities. I thought that I could use its abilities to improve my life, so I began to try to steal other people's shadows.

Feed it carefully to gain more strength..."

"Six months later, I became the richest man in the entire Cook Islands, but I was no longer satisfied with this. I became obsessed with studying the power of God. In the name of 'God', I formed the Society of the Undead and gathered a large number of sects.

The crowd became more and more wanton in robbing more people's shadows... Facts have proved that human greed has no limit. By the time I realized something was wrong, it was already too late."
