Chapter 220 - Entering the Trap by Mistake

Along the Huangpu river bank, there was light coming from a high location from afar. These lights were flickering in different colors as they reflected on the surface of the river. Following the movement of the stream, it looked like a floating, colored ribbon in the dark.

A heavy odor similar to excrement drifted by, instantly ruining the beautiful scenery. This was followed by numbers of black figures coming out of the river, one by one. The odor came precisely from these figures.

The five figures were in the front, they looked like they were chasing away animals as they let out a severe, excoriating noise.

They began to swiftly move toward Xu Jiang’an, because they had to gather there before their objectives got there!

“Hui Si, you stay on outside. The second you see our objective, notify me immediately.” The man wore a long grey cloak that covered his body, and a mask covering his face.

The five of them were all wearing long, grey cloaks. All of their bodies emitted a strange odor, and from one glance, you could tell they weren’t good people.

“Yes sir.” The person called Hui Si immediately stood guard outside.

They entered a rather shabby factory. This factory seemed like it recycled lower quality meat, as it smelled like meat everywhere. There were a lot of other things mixed together with it, so it smelled more like dog food, and could still be sold for a good price somewhere.

The factory had some machines in operation. However, there was not a single person inside, perhaps no one within a hundred meters.

“Once we’ve gotten our objective, remember he needs to be alive. Do not fail, or else you know what will happen,” Hui Yi pointed at the Dark Beasts crawling around the floor, who only knew how to listen to orders.

The other three people glanced at the Dark Beasts, and couldn’t help but shiver coldly.

The scariest part about the Black Vatican was that once you’ve made a mistake, then the punishment you got was even worse than dying!

Outside of the factory, a man with a purple outfit slowly approached. His eyes were very solemn in the middle of the night.

“Lulu, you stay here. I’ll go in and take a look,” the guy said toward the girl next to him with a high ponytail.

“Don’t go in, they look very dangerous...Zhaoting, why are you following these people? Just what are those half-human, half-monster things?” the girl with the high ponytail called Lulu said.

When he unintentionally caught a whiff of an unusual odor from a student, Xu Zhaoting seemed like he had turned into a different person. Zhang Lulu did not understand just what had happened, she could only follow Xu Zhaoting.

“Don’t ask, you stay here. If I don’t come back within ten minutes, you must leave immediately. Remember, don’t stay here!” Xu Zhaoting said in a very serious tone.

Originally, Xu Zhaoting and Zhang Lulu were looking for the clues of the Shadow Beast together. However, when they were looking for clues around a playground, Xu Zhaoting caught a whiff of a very unusual odor.

This odor was something Xu Zhaoting would never forget. That’s because this was a smell emitted from a creature with a pitch black body that had appeared during the Calamity of Bo City.

Xu Zhaoting really hoped that his own sense of smell had a problem. However, when he was stealthily following that student, he had discovered that the student was a Dark Beast!

Black Vatican!

It was the people from Black Vatican!

They seem to be scheming something again!

Xu Zhaoting hated the people from the Black Vatican to the bones. They were the people that caused his family’s death.

Near Xu Zhaoting’s home was a lair tunnel. When he went to the different districts to find his family with a depressed spirit, he only found a white paper with names. His father, mother, little brother, and grandma’s name were all on the white paper.

He had survived, but suddenly, he was by himself.

Xu Zhaoting did his best to forget about it, he wanted to live again in a new environment. He met an alright girl, being with her made him very happy. This made him forget about the pain...

However, today, he smelled this odor.
