Prelude to the Dark Clouds

After removing the meeting point in Green Spirit City, the three people, one monster, and one baby returned to the hotel in the Laocheng District.

The Imperial Baby was very curious about the objects in this small room.

“Wow, why does this thing light up when you press it? How can the little person in this little black box move? Can they talk? Also, why did those metal boxes move this morning?”

He was from the ancient Dragon Kingdom and was curious about everything in modern society.

Hu Wu blinked, his expression dull. He felt like he was in a dream.

“Who’s this child?”

“It’s a long story,” Lu Benwei sighed. “It might be someone from Fang Xiaoxiao’s ancestors.””

“What?” Hu Wu’s jaw dropped in shock. He felt that all of this was extremely unrealistic.

At the same time, the existence of the crocodile made him feel like he was dreaming.

“What’s going on?”

At this moment, the Six-tailed Crocodile opened a bottle of beer in Hu Wu’s room.

Seeing Hu Wu looking at him in confusion, he said, “What are you looking at? Do you want me to take you as a pet?”

Hu Wu curled his lips and said to Lu Benwei, “Are you also a member of the God Welcoming Association?”

“If he was, would you still be alive?” Lu Benwei rolled his eyes and almost wanted to slap Hu Wu to death.

It had to be said that he was a little tired after experiencing the tribulation lightning. He did not even have the heart to joke with Hu Wu.

“What should we do next?” Chu Yan asked at this time. Her tone was also a little tired.

“Since they know about Fang Xiaoxiao’s existence, why haven’t they made a move yet?” Lu Benwei asked, “Old Hu, are you hiding something from us?”

“Pa!”

The crocodile put down the bottle of wine and made a loud noise on the table.

“Tell me quickly, or I’ll take you in as my pet.”

Obviously, he had poured a glass of wine.

The air was so quiet that it was terrifying. There was only the sound of cartoons on the television. The Imperial Baby was watching attentively. At this moment, moans came from the couple next door, causing everyone to look at each other. Three seconds later, the moaning stopped.

“Alright, I admit it!” Hu Wu curled his lips and opened his mouth.

“They’re in the midst of a great war. Wait for the reinforcements to arrive!” Hu Wu said solemnly.

“What reinforcements? Are they humans or monsters?” Lu Benwei continued to ask.

“Monsters!”

Lu Benwei was furious. “Why didn’t you say something so important earlier?”

“I don’t dare,” Hu Wu’s eyes avoided his gaze as he spoke.

“Are you afraid that we’re also members of the God Welcoming Association?” Lu Benwei was a little angry and wanted to slap him.

He had been tricked by Hu Wu for so many days. In the end, he still did not trust the old man!

“If I don’t f*ck you, I’ll do whatever I want! I’ll report you to the police when I get out!”

“Don’t, don’t!” Hu Wu laughed and massaged Lu Benwei’s shoulders as an apology.

“It’s like this. Those who died were sacrificed to a terrifying thing.” Hu Wu revealed his information.

“Monster King?”

“No, but it’s still a very terrifying thing.”

“What do they want to do?” Chu Yan asked. action

“According to my guess, they want to capture Fang Xiaoxiao and use her to deduce the whereabouts of the Divine Child.”

“Then we’ll take action and retrieve the Divine Child.”

Lu Benwei thought for a while and vaguely felt that this was making a mountain out of a molehill. Moreover, the risk was very high. However, there was nothing that could explain why they had not moved out for so long.

“I know you’re in a hurry to return, but the lives of the people of Green Spirit City are more important. Lu Benwei, you’re also from Green Spirit City, aren’t you?”

This was true. Protecting the safety of Green Spirit City was the most important.

“But here comes the problem. For us, it’s now a werewolf kill. No one knows if the other party is a follower of the God Welcoming Association hiding in the government,” Hu Wu said with a face full of dust.

“Let me take a look at the name list,” Lu Benwei said.

Hu Wu pursed his lips and took out the name list again. Lu Benwei took another glance and sighed helplessly. A portion of the army stationed in Green Spirit City had also fallen.

Lu Benwei rubbed his temples. His head hurt a little. The number of people involved was simply unimaginable. Lu Benwei was even a little worried that Lu Dayong and Jiang Xiuqin had fallen too. After all, the two elders were also civil servants who worked for the government.

Hu Wu patted his head and suddenly said, “Right, add a few more people.”

After saying that, he took out a pen and wrote on the paper.

Lu Benwei thought of something and asked, “Do you have any impression of that old woman today? Who is she?”

Hu Wu shrugged. “I know all the level-80 hunters in Hai Province. I also know their abilities. However, I really haven’t seen that old woman before.”

Lu Benwei pursed his lips and did not say anything else. He raised her hand to look at his phone and realized that it was already midnight.

“It’s getting late. Let’s go back first. We’ll talk about the next step tomorrow,” Lu Benwei said indifferently.

Hu Wu was also a little sleepy. “Alright, we’ll deal with them as they come. If it really doesn’t work, we’ll demolish another stronghold tomorrow night!”

At the same time, somewhere in Hai Province.

In a church made of bluestone, candles danced in the wind.

The believers of the God Welcoming Association sat around the bench, and the atmosphere was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.

“I failed.”

On the divine altar, Gan Yan put down his crossed legs.

“What, you didn’t kill Lu Benwei? Isn’t that the formation that Lord Five Fingers developed? Lu Benwei broke free of it?”

Suddenly, dark clouds gathered among the believers as they discussed animatedly.

On the side, the people wearing silver masks were also terrified.

“Where’s Hu Wu? Has Hu Wu been killed?”

“No.” Gan Yan shook his head.

Instantly, the faces of the silver-masked men turned pale. They were all influential figures in the government. For some reason, they chose to become believers of the God Welcoming Association.

“Ten Fingers, how do you do things? In my opinion, we should just attack Lu Benwei’s house and capture their parents!” someone in the silver mask said indignantly.

“Lu Benwei has offended the gods many times. We’ll punish him on behalf of the gods! Moreover, we must speed up the plan and kill Hu Wu. Our identities cannot be exposed!”

Gan Yan was not part of the management of the God Welcoming Association.

However, ever since the plan to revive the Divine Child in Canglong City failed, Ten Fingers was killed by Lu Benwei and Gan Yan replaced Ten Fingers.

Looking at the noisy crowd below the stage, Gan Yan raised a hand.

“Lord Seagull, you’re familiar with Lu Benwei.”

Everyone looked at a person in the corner of the church. He slowly took off his mask and revealed his true appearance. It was the provincial governor of Hai Province, Yang Wudi!
