"There's no point in thinking about it. If he wants you, just give it to him!"

Seeing the third task, Cheng Shen had an unexpected headache.

Moreover, the first two branches are optional, but the third mission shows that he has already accepted it.

Must do.

"well."

Cheng sighed deeply.

In fact, he also knew that it was unrealistic to give up his body and ignore it.

The deep-sea curse he was infected with and Tenant No. 5 were both world-destroying horrors and weirdnesses, which could easily destroy a city. Once they were provoked, they might not be any easier to deal with than the current dangers in the city.

At that time, he faced the ultimate desperate situation.

Death is certain.

Although the old city is scary, it has certain rules after all, and weirdness will not tell you any truth...

seven days.

The time is quite relaxed.

Cheng Shen knew where his body was lost, and he happened to have a way to get close to that place. The key was that he didn't need to retrieve his complete body, he could regenerate himself even if he got a drop of blood.

Therefore, it is not difficult to complete this task.

immediately.

Cheng Shen tried to open his backpack.

"Hey..."

A sharp sound of electricity lingered in his mind. The item space was not opened immediately. Cheng Shen first received a series of system prompts.

【Insufficient permissions!】

【Processing...】

[It has been detected that you have unlocked 1% of the control permissions, which will allow you to take out three items from your backpack!]

[Increasing the exploration level of the old city can increase the authority level! 】

…

Can only pick up three items?

Cheng Shen pondered.

Among them, Dr. Crow's license is definitely a must. It is an important tool to recover his body, and it is also the key to integrating into this city.

The other two pieces…

Cheng Shen suddenly realized that the holy pool had been taken away along with his body.

This weapon was of extraordinary importance to him, and he undoubtedly had another reason to get his body back.

The birds are still there.

But this gun needs a physical body to exert its strongest power.

Don't consider it yet.

His soul form basically does not rely on weapons when fighting, so the need in this regard is not urgent.

Considering the remaining two positions, Cheng Shen planned to take out the space compass first and add a cursed object.

The former may allow him to hug him as soon as possible and get through the most critical period.

The latter is used to save lives.

And the Bloody Divine Court Key, which was obtained at the same time as Dr. Crow's license, was obviously an item for exploring deep areas, and taking it out now would be a waste of a spot.

As for the long sword of the exiled commander, he is not the one who should be anxious about this thing...

Cheng Shen did not use these three quotas immediately. The situation is unclear now, so it is best to adapt accordingly.

Basically understand the situation.

Cheng Shen was about to close the panel when he suddenly saw a special status icon next to his avatar.

[Soul Parasitism: Passive, an ancient consciousness is always wandering over the city, searching for all outsiders. When your soul leaves the body and exists alone, the probability of being discovered will continue to increase! 】

…

"The soul cannot leave the body..."

Cheng Shen frowned secretly.

He understood why escaping from the House of Doom was a separate mission. Otherwise, he could easily complete it by just changing his body.

It seems that the system has calculated accurately.

but.

Not a big problem.

It's not like he has nothing to do with this tattered body.

Cheng Shen's thoughts deepened slightly, and his soul power suddenly spread out like threads, quickly moving across the surface of the puppet's body.

A three-ring magic he had mastered before came in handy at this time.

Construct a demon puppet.

To be honest, Cheng Shen always felt that the effect of this magic was very useless, but he never thought that there would be times when he had to use it.

The solid soul thread shuttled back and forth, connecting every joint like a needle thread, sewing the tattered body tightly, and complex symbols were then outlined on the puppet's chest, forming a small formation.

Finish!

While portraying the constructed demon puppet, Cheng Shen also added several rejuvenation runes to himself to ensure that his remaining flesh and blood tissue would not decay too quickly.

He did not ignore the key to describing the parasitic state,

It is the physical body.

Only by having a physical body can he avoid the search of that ancient consciousness.

But even so, Cheng Shen felt that this body could not hold on for much longer. The body's functional organs had decayed, so Cheng Shen felt that it was a miracle that it was still alive.

To avoid problems he must replace some healthy parts as soon as possible!

Creak...

Cheng Shen slowly sat up from the bed, and the joints on his body made an uncomfortable friction sound as he moved.

This is what he did on purpose.

Cheng Shen has experienced nightmares before and knows the importance of disguising your identity.

Especially since he still has family in this nightmare...

"It's time to meet them."

Cheng Shen thought to himself.

He simulated the degree of movement this body should have, and climbed up from the bed unsteadily.

At this time, his eyes glanced at the door accidentally.

His movements suddenly froze.

However, judging from his current behavior, this stiffness was not noticeable, and he quickly returned to normal.

Cheng Shen recalled the original chaotic memory of the owner of the body, walked to the desk, sat down slowly, and began to busyly but pointlessly fiddle with the unfinished wooden handicrafts.

Under the seemingly calm appearance, Cheng Shen's heart was filled with turmoil.

The eye peeking out from the crack in the door kept replaying in his mind, and he was horrified in his heart.

Someone is watching him!

Before he arrived, that person had been lying at the door staring at him!

Pictures in his memory kept flashing back, and countless malicious eyes merged into the same scene before Cheng Shen's eyes.

In this case,

It existed while the original owner of this puppet was still alive!

Whenever he returned to his room and fell asleep late at night, that terrifying eye would always appear at the door and stare at him.

sometimes,

Will also come to his bed!

The fear that arose in Cheng Shen's heart was mostly influenced by the memory of the original owner. After all, if he had encountered such a thing, he would have gone out and killed the other party. How could he still allow it to pretend to be a ghost every day?

The field of perception expands silently.

The horror behind the door, the shadow that had shrouded the puppet man's life, was immediately clear before Cheng Shen's eyes.
To be continued...
