It all happened too suddenly. Even the psychic was unable to move because he felt that death was approaching him step by step.

"Damn it, you already knew that this house was full of monsters, so you deliberately lured us here?"

The man glared at Yan Fan, who was lying on the ground in front of him with his hands covering his shoulder, but he found that there was a darkness in Yan Fan's eyes and he did not immediately answer his question.

Gu Tongwan turned the muzzle of the gun. A pistol equipped with a silencer could not completely silence the shot at the human body, but there was only her building nearby, so it would not alert the Self-Defense Forces for the time being.

"You little brat, you'd better tell the people upstairs to stop, or I'll make you..." The psychic deliberately threatened, but in fact he had already activated his psychic powers to try to track down the people upstairs in an attempt to control the consciousness of the person standing in the window on the second floor.

But he didn't expect that when he just released his supernatural power, he immediately sensed a powerful mental force pressing down from the second floor. This mental force was like a landslide, with unstoppable force, which instantly drove his mental power back into his body.

"Woooooo!" The splitting headache made him roll on the ground with his hands covering his head. This was more torturous than being shot dead instantly. This was why high-level psychics made all other psychics tremble in fear, because compared to physical pain, they could inflict cruel mental torture.

Seeing the man rolling on the ground, his heavy breathing and constant groans of torture had made his mouth open wide, saliva constantly flowing down the corners of his mouth, and his eyes were rolled up. In a short while, Gujiu would die from the torture.

Although Yan Fan felt like he had survived a calamity, he also felt a sense of failure at the same time. He had just tried his best but failed to kill any of the psychics. His strength was still too weak.

The last psychic endured the pain and tried his best to crawl forward.

Just at this moment, he heard unusual movements coming from the door in front, and his hands on the ground suddenly became stronger.

Could it be that the accomplice in the house has succeeded?

By the way, the two accomplices inside are both people with super powers. Even if the people upstairs have guns, it is impossible to kill two people with super powers at once.

Placing all his hopes in the front room, the man stood up with all his strength and staggered inside.

But he stopped after running for a while, because he found that the person standing in front of him was not his accomplice, but a huge black wolf with bloody fangs bared and a pair of dark blue animal eyes staring at him.

A hot stream came from under his pants, and the man actually wet his pants.

"Monster, monster!" The man's last hope was completely shattered. He shouted out incoherent words with a trembling mouth. He wanted to escape but found that his legs were shaking uncontrollably.

Before he could say another word, he suddenly felt a heart-wrenching pain in his left chest.

He lowered his head in disbelief, as his chest was pierced by a sharp ice cone, which was still spinning at high speed. With every rotation, the pain in his body increased, and blood was gushing out at a faster rate.

When Gu Tongwan came down from upstairs, he saw the man with his eyes wide open. He fell down holding his chest without even saying a word. His eyes were still open when he died. He probably never expected that he would fall into the hands of a boy whom he once looked down upon as an ant.

Seeing Gu Tongwan coming down, Yan Fan pursed his lips and said, "They are from the same organization. I know the clues to the organization's lair, so there is no need to keep them alive."

Gu Tongwan turned his gaze from the man's body to Yan Fan's. "Well, it seems that we have to figure out how to deal with these bodies now. Should we deal with them privately or call the police?"

Yan Fan was still young after all, and he was still a little frightened by the two corpses in the yard. After all, he had just killed someone. Even though he had seen many corpses in the apocalypse, most of them were people who starved to death on the road or died suddenly due to weather reasons. But the person just now did it himself. He did not feel any so-called pleasure or panic after killing, but more of a sense of helplessness about this world and the feeling that his hands were finally stained with blood.

Seeing Yan Fan like this, Gu Tongwan knew that he should also know that it was useless to call the police at this time, so as to avoid attracting the attention of the Self-Defense Forces. Besides, Yan Fan was still a fugitive.

"You go back first, I'll take care of this. Come back after ten o'clock tomorrow morning."

Yan Fan raised his head and looked at her with complicated eyes, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Gu Tongwan smiled knowingly, "Don't worry, I'm not stupid enough to call the police. Besides, these guys deserve to be killed. If I let them succeed tonight, what do you think are the chances of me surviving or not being bullied by them?"

Yan Fan took a deep breath. The yard was still filled with a strong fishy smell, but he quickly made a decision. He nodded and said, "I understand, but I was the one who got involved this time. I owe you one."

Gu Tongwan stood in the yard. It was windless in the early morning. Her eyes were as dark as the starry sky. She shook her head firmly and said, "It's not entirely you. These people are desperate criminals who are greedy for money. Even if it's not me, someone else will be killed sooner or later. You are just an index. There is no need to think that you are the one who implicated me. But I am curious about one thing. How did you know that these people would come to steal my house in the middle of the night tonight?"

Yan Fan pressed his fingers slightly harder into his palms, and after a while he said, "When I came back from the black market at night, I discovered a very familiar spiritual power. I have fought with this spiritual power before, so it is not difficult to identify it."

Previously, when he was in the black market, he had been threatened by the psychic man. The man just wanted to extort money from him because he was still young. He even tried to control him with his mental power, but later found out that he was a homeless man. He sneered at him and let Yan Fan go.

Later, Yan Fan heard from the people who were waiting for work together that this group of people were members of a notorious small hunter guild nearby.

That small guild is basically full of these unemployed people recruited from the society, but they themselves have superpowers. They are all idle, look down on ordinary jobs, and hope to get ahead with their superpowers. However, in the inner circle where there are many high-level superpowers, these people are in an awkward situation. The powerful look down on D or C level hunters, and they are unwilling to be nine-to-five office workers, so they simply think about starting their own business, taking hunter missions on the one hand, and working in the inner circle on the other, and even doing some despicable things.

Gu Tongwan heard this and said meaningfully, "You could have turned a blind eye to it. As long as you didn't interfere, those people wouldn't embarrass you. Why did you chase after them?"

Yan Fan took a deep breath, raised his eyes and looked at her: "I can't let anyone get hurt because of me, and... you helped me."

"Yan Fan, you are very smart and kind, but... don't trust me too much. I just see the value in you. Okay, you can go back. Leave everything here to me. When you come here tomorrow morning, I will bring your luggage with you."

After Yan Fan left, several blood vine branches emerged from Gu Tongwan's hands. The blood vine branches quickly turned the two corpses underneath into their "nutrients", and the two shriveled skins on the floor were eliminated by the strong sulfuric acid she took out from the space. The smell of blood in the air quickly disappeared, leaving only the pungent smell of sulfuric acid that had not yet dissipated.

I glanced at the villa area a few dozen meters away, and used the blood vine's spiritual consensus to sense it, but did not find any spiritual fluctuations over there. Only then did I feel relieved that only she and Yan Fan knew what happened tonight.

When he returned to the room, the remaining shriveled skin had been eaten clean by the blood vines.

In fact, the blood vine not only absorbs blood, but can also quickly destroy skin and flesh tissue. It just doesn't like anything other than blood, so many times after sucking blood it will ignore the skin. But this time it seemed to be in line with its heart, so it even cleaned up the corpse cleanly.

Because he didn't like the smell of blood or strange smells in the room, and the weather was hot, he felt that there was still a strange smell in the lobby on the first floor. Gu Tongwan had to search for deodorizing products in the space. Finally, he found a bottle of 84 disinfectant. He mopped the stairs and the entrance several times, and after the blood stains were completely clean, he sprayed freshener and then turned on the fan to disperse the air.

After finishing all this, she returned to the room and had to take another shower. Although it was not easy to call the police about what happened tonight, the guild that these hunters belonged to might know that they were going to raid tonight. If these people disappeared for a long time, their guild would sooner or later track them down, so she had to make plans for the future in advance.

The next morning, Yan Fan arrived on time as usual, wearing the same clothes he wore last night. It seemed that apart from his previous set of tattered clothes, he was only wearing the sportswear that he had given him the day before.

I saw that he was carrying a bundle of cardboard and newspapers in one hand, and two mineral water bottles and a small bag of what looked like dry food in the other hand. Apart from that, he had no other luggage.

After Gu Tongwan opened the door, he let him into the lobby on the first floor.

There was only one air conditioner on the first floor. Although the temperature was very high, it was much more comfortable than the high temperature along the way.

"Have some herbal tea, and then we can talk."

Yan Fan didn't hesitate to sit down and drank the cold tea with some crushed ice floating in front of him in one gulp.

Gu Tongwan was sitting opposite, also holding a cup of herbal tea in her hand, sipping it slowly and leisurely.

After Yan Fan finished drinking the herbal tea, she went straight to the point and continued the topic from last night.

"What guild does the other party belong to? How many people are there in that guild now?"

Yan Fan had no intention of hiding it and directly told everything he knew. After all, he and Gu Tongwan were now like grasshoppers on the same rope and shared a common destiny.

"The Chenggong Guild is a small-scale hunter guild. It currently has a total of twenty-one members, including fifteen D-level psychics, five C-level psychics, and one B-level psychic. The guild leader is a B-level power psychic." Having said that, she couldn't help but look at the opposite side, but saw that the other party's expression did not change, and there was no sign of panic. It seems that these people are not enough to cause her fear, which also indirectly reflects that her strength is far above that of B-level psychics.

But it makes sense. The two mutant beasts in her house, which could not be told whether they were dogs or wolves, were at least above level B. The first time they met, she was greeted by a strong spiritual force.

Although he had not been out of the base for several years, Yan Fan had heard that some high-level mutant beasts not only had powerful superpowers but also had mental strength that was enough to crush ordinary superpower users.

The two mutant beasts beside her might be high-level monsters with high IQ.

"It seems that these people were from some small gangs before the end of the world. They were not easy to mess with. It is said that they had been causing trouble in the outer circle before, and were later recruited into the inner circle by the guild leader. When the weather was not so hot, they occasionally received many missions to enter the Great Ginseng Forest in the north to hunt mutant beasts. After the extreme weather appeared, their source of income was cut off, and these people had no choice but to target the workers and some small shops."

"I see. It's just like collecting a certain amount of protection fee or territory fee in disguise." Gu Tongwan let out a sarcastic smile.

Currently, most of the personnel of the base guard bureau have been assigned to deal with the major case of the terrorist organization, but other cases, as long as they do not pose a high threat to society, can only be dealt with later.

"There were three C-rank hunters who came to me in the middle of the night yesterday. They are core members of the guild. They would not have ignored me, and I don't want to be in a state of anxiety all day long." Gu Tongwan changed her posture slightly, leaning back a little, resting her hands on the table, and assuming a very comfortable posture, but there was a cold light in her eyes and there was a chill in her tone that could not be ignored.

Yan Fan knew he had to make up his mind the moment he went to the appointment. He pressed his tongue against his jaw with a little force, and there was a sense of determination in his voice, "Whatever you say to do, I will do it."

"Even if it means killing someone?" Gu Tongwan raised his eyebrows, speaking in a casual tone, and repeatedly talked about what to eat tonight.

Yan Fan's breathing suddenly became heavier, and he nodded silently. "If they start first, I will kill them."

Gu Tongwan swayed on his toes and suddenly said, "There is a tent in the backyard, as well as some cement and bricks. You should have seen the place at the corner, which is half built. It was originally intended to be used as a small outdoor kitchen. If you can use the remaining bricks to build a small house, you can live in it in the future."

If the weather wasn't so extreme, she could have asked him to set up a tent in the yard, but now it seemed unlikely. After all, living in a tent in the morning weather would be suffocating.

But Gu Tongwan was not generous enough to allow him to live in her house without paying anything. After all, she was just planning to use Yan Fan, or to give Yan Fan a chance.
