Chapter 239 Searching for the Missing Person
Zhongyang City is adjacent to Dayuan City.
It is an inconspicuous small city. If it were not for the mission of delivering the letter, Li Yi and others would not have come here even if they wanted to investigate the situation of this world.
After driving for several hours, Li Yi and others arrived in the city smoothly and found the Zhongyang City Gymnasium according to the navigation.
“This place is also blocked.”
However, before the vehicle got close, they saw a cordon set up near the gymnasium and security guards patrolling around. However, compared with the previous Dazhuang City, the number of security personnel here was relatively small, and there were no real guns and live ammunition. But even so, Li Yi and his companions immediately became serious.
"A blockade means there are supernatural things. As expected, this letter looks simple, but it is actually forcing us to deal with the supernatural, allowing us to grow and improve through supernatural events." Qin Bing said and looked at the others: "What do you think? Should we just break in and deliver the letter, or come back at night?"
"The other messengers haven't arrived yet." Zhang Jing said, "I suggest waiting. Although those messengers are ordinary people, they arrived at the Ghost Post Office earlier than us and have contacted some old messengers. They know more information than us. Sometimes we have to listen to their opinions."
"We can't look down on ordinary people just because of our own strength. When delivering letters in the ghost post office, it seems that the information gap is more important. Individual strength does not have a big impact, unless we are ghost riders."
Li Yi nodded and said, "That makes sense. Let's wait. I estimate that they will arrive in the afternoon. We can use this time to find out what happened in the stadium in this city and who that person named Wang Fei is."
"No problem, but for the sake of safety, let's split up. Zhang Jing, you're injured and haven't recovered yet, so you should stay nearby and wait. Don't go near the gymnasium to avoid being targeted by ghosts. You can also see when the other messengers will arrive." Tao Yuan asked again, "By the way, how much nutrient solution do you have? If not, I can give you some."
"Not for now, thank you." Zhang Jing said.
After a few people reached a temporary agreement, they soon dispersed.
They entered the city and began to try various methods to investigate the stadium.
This investigation actually revealed some things.
It turned out that some time ago, the gymnasium in Zhongyang City was still open for business as usual. People usually went to the gymnasium to swim, exercise, and do sports. But since some time ago, people began to disappear in the gymnasium one after another. At first, only one or two people disappeared, but later the number of missing people increased. The most terrifying time was when everyone in the gymnasium disappeared.
After that, the stadium was blocked and no one could enter.
As for the person named Wang Fei, we have not found any clues yet and we don’t know who she is, but there is no doubt that this Wang Fei must be in the gymnasium now.
I just don't know why the ghost post office wanted to deliver this letter to Faye Wong.
What does faith represent?
What is in the letter?
Li Yi was a little curious and sometimes even wanted to open the letter to take a look, but a feeling told him that it would be better not to touch the letter, otherwise some unexpected and horrible things would happen.
In the end, he suppressed his curiosity and decided not to touch the letter.
Time passed quickly.
Around three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Jing sent a message saying that Guo You and several other messengers had arrived near the stadium.
"Gather and start the letter delivery mission." Li Yi did not waste any more time and immediately sent a message asking everyone to assemble.
Just less than ten minutes.
Near the Zhongyang City Gymnasium, all the messengers on the first floor have arrived.
"There's no way to avoid security if we act in broad daylight. If we force our way in and get caught, we won't be able to complete our mission of delivering the letter, and we'll die a miserable death," said Guo You.
As a messenger, the biggest worry is getting caught, because that would delay the delivery of the letter.
"It's very simple, just don't get discovered." After Li Yi said that, he strode over and grabbed him.
The weight of more than 100 kilograms seemed to have no weight in his hands.
With the blood and energy bursting out from under his feet, he rushed out in an instant. His speed was so fast that it was unbelievable. Even the security personnel patrolling nearby were of no use. In just a turn, Li Yi had already taken Guo You across the cordon and rushed directly into the gymnasium.
"Fuck, what is this? Superman?" The messenger next to him looked at him in amazement.
They knew that Li Yi and others had some unusual abilities, but they didn't expect them to be so terrifying.
Is that power a joke?
The hard concrete floor was cracked by the force of the explosion. The speed was so fast that it left an afterimage that could not be captured by sight.
"This guy has become stronger again." Qin Bing took a look and said in a low voice.
"I see, but we have to take action too." After Tao Yuan said that, he grabbed a messenger and rushed out instantly.
A master in the spiritual perception realm bursts out with all his strength, and his speed is also incredibly fast.
These security personnel are ordinary people. They only need to panic and they can seize the blind spot of vision and cross the cordon before the other party can react.
now.
Li Yi rushed into the gymnasium, put Guo You down casually, and then began to look around.
"Wow!"
Guo You, an ordinary person, couldn't stand such high-speed movement. At this moment, he felt his head spinning and his body was about to fall apart. Finally, he couldn't help but bent down and vomited.
"Since you have already participated in the letter delivery mission, there is no need to hide your strength as an evolver." Li Yi glanced at Guo You and then shook his head.
The physical fitness of people in this world is too poor and they can't stand any slight hardship.
Subsequently.
Qin Bing, Tao Yuan, Zhang Jing and others also entered the gymnasium smoothly, and they brought the other two messengers with them.
Similarly, the two ordinary people also immediately bent down and vomited, and it took them a while to recover.
After they recovered, they looked at Li Yi and the others with awe in their eyes. "Are you already ghost riders?" Guo You asked in shock.
"We are not ghost riders, so don't ask about things you shouldn't know. It will not do you any good. What you need to do now is to find Faye Wong and complete the letter delivery mission. If you know any information about the ghost post office during this period, tell us immediately. This will be good for everyone." Li Yi said.
At this time, another messenger said, "I, I know a piece of information. During the delivery mission, the messenger has the opportunity to obtain some supernatural items and props, which can increase the probability of survival."
"Supernatural items? Props? What are those things?" Li Yi asked.
"Ominous objects that are contaminated with supernatural powers have certain supernatural powers that can be used to fight against evil spirits, or have some other functions. I have heard about this, but it is not information I got from the post office, but information obtained from other channels." said the messenger.
Li Yi nodded and probably understood.
Similar to black letter paper.
This kind of ominous and strange thing always has some magical powers and can play a role to some extent.
And just when a few people were talking.
As evolvers, they immediately smelled a strange odor.
It was the stench of a rotting corpse, and more than that, there was also a heavy vapor in the air that gave people a damp feeling.
"Should we act together or separately?" Qin Bing asked in a low voice at this time.
"It's definitely safer if we act together." Guo You said immediately, but soon he noticed that the expressions of the others were not right, so he shut up immediately.
Li Yi, Tao Yuan and Zhang Jing remained silent, thinking about the previous situation.
Acting together may not mean safety for them, but may mean that they will be wiped out if something goes wrong.
"The stadium is very big. Divide into two teams to explore the area. If you find Faye Wong, notify her immediately and I will rush over to deliver the letter. If there is any danger, don't get close until you are sure of the situation." Li Yi finally proposed this plan.
"no problem."
"We have plenty of time now, so let's go around and make sure the gym is in good condition."
Several people agreed.
"Li Yi, I will act with you, and Zhang Jing and Tao Yuan will act together, so that we can take care of each other." Qin Bing said.
He broke one arm, Zhang Jing was injured, and now only Li Yi and Tao Yuan were fine.
"Okay." Li Yi nodded.
"Let me go with you." Guo You said hurriedly.
Li Yi took a look and did not object.
Soon, the two teams were arranged.
Li Yi, Qin Bing, Guo You, and another strange messenger form one team, and the other three form another team.
Now that the team was determined, they took action immediately. They looked at the map of the stadium, arranged their routes, and then started exploring separately.
As mentioned before, the gymnasium is very large and contains gardens, green landscapes, and various sports venues.
Basketball hall, swimming pool, volleyball hall and so on.
It does take some time to find someone here.
But Li Yi was very direct. He followed the smell of the corpse and finally fixed his eyes on the swimming pool.
"The smell is coming from inside. There's something wrong with this swimming pool." Li Yi stopped and said with a frown.
"Let's first identify the dangerous points, and then explore slowly." Qin Bing said.
Li Yi nodded and went to another place. Later, he smelled the same smell in a dormitory building, but this time the smell was very faint and almost imperceptible. However, considering the complexity of the dormitory building, he still did not venture in and continued to investigate other places.
The situation of Tao Yuan and Zhang Jing was the same. They first identified the abnormal points and then investigated them instead of rushing in rashly.
However, just as Li Yi passed by a green area, he and Qin Bing suddenly noticed something and immediately looked towards the same place.
There is a water fountain in the middle of the green belt, but in the water, a head that was soaked and turned white now floated on the surface. Under the wet black hair, a pair of pale eyes looked towards this side, and the eyeballs were slowly turning as Li Yi moved.
"Is that a ghost?" The wet dead head stared at Li Yi. Li Yi also stared at the head without any fear at all.
"It's likely."
Qin Bing couldn't help but smoke another cigarette to ease his uneasiness: "But he didn't attack us, so he seems to be quite well behaved."
Guo You looked at the dead head in the water, then looked at Li Yi, feeling very frightened and terrified.
Are you all so brave? Still studying ghosts here? Shouldn't you leave here immediately and stay away from ghosts?
Of course Guo You didn't know that Li Yi and Qin Bing were actually already tense. As long as the ghost showed any intention of rushing over, they could retreat more than ten meters within a second and escape from the gymnasium in a few seconds without any hesitation.
This is the confidence of the evolvers.
Slip away quickly.
