Chapter 144

At least in Tang Meili's heart, the Demon Bear was not bad.

It only killed that group of people who deserved to die and had saved her many times.

It wasn't bad, so why did Zhang Miao and her group still want to hunt it down? Zhang Miao heard this, was silent for a moment, and said helplessly: "Whether it is bad or not doesn't depend on your words; you must know that its identity is a Ghost, and it has already killed many people."

"Ghosts are the enemies of all humanity; their revival will cause problems for the entire world."

"The Demon Bear is also one of them; do you know that many people have been hit by the Demon Bear's plague, and their whole bodies are covered in eyeballs?"

As Zhang Miao said this, Tang Meili clenched her fists, listening until she had goosebumps all over.

To be honest, she didn't have any special thoughts about the Demon Bear, just simply thinking that it protected her and shouldn't be a bad person.

She didn't have the same emotions as Little Wan.

Xu Jiajia's expression changed, and she asked cautiously: "Leader... then what about my little one? What about her? You won't want to take action against her too, will you?"

"She is not a bad person, she is still young, she doesn't understand anything!"

Little Wan sat beside them eating candy, staring at the group with her big eyes.

Her ceramic-like face was very exquisite and cute, but... she had eyeballs stuffed in her pockets, and from time to time, she would take these things out to play.

Xu Jiajia was speechless for a moment, snatched the eyeball from her hand, and threw it away.

"Little Wan! What is this thing? Don't play with it!"

Little Wan pouted: "Auntie... this is a toy Little Bear gave me, and it said these things would protect me."

Saying this, she squatted down and picked up the eyeballs one by one, repeating: "Last time, it was these things that saved Auntie."

The three adults looked at her and really didn't know what to say.

And Zhang Miao really hadn't expected this.

She hadn't expected Lin Xiaowan to really be an ordinary little child; she had family and her own life.

It was just that she had an extra Ghost, the Demon Bear.

If this were the case, could she try to bring her back to the right path, and in doing so, perhaps let the Demon Bear join as well? Letting a Special Level Ghost become a Night Watcher... she didn't even dare to imagine it.

"Little Wan... is the little bear your friend?" For a child, Zhang Miao wanted to guide her, to lead her over.

At least, right now, Little Wan gave her the feeling of a perfectly normal child.

Perhaps there really was a chance.

Lin Xiaowan looked up at Zhang Miao, very certain: "Yes, Little Bear is Little Wan's best, best friend."

"Big sister is also Little Wan's friend, so can Little Wan let Little Bear and big sister be friends together?"

When saying this, Zhang Miao's heart was very nervous.

She didn't know the consequences of these words, nor did she dare to imagine them.

Because for hundreds of years since the Ghost revival, no one had ever made friends with a Ghost like this, let alone wanted to transform a genuine Ghost into a Night Watcher.

Although she also knew that the probability was minimal.

Lin Xiaowan stared seriously at Zhang Miao and then smiled: "No, Little Bear has a very big temper; he doesn't like anyone except Little Wan."

"Also, let me tell you a secret."

She leaned her head over, and Zhang Miao curiously leaned in; she didn't know what Little Wan was going to say.

Little Wan leaned close to her ear, with a light laugh: "Little Bear is staring at you right now."

Hiss—

As soon as these words were spoken, Zhang Miao retreated several steps violently. Her face turned pale in a flash, and her gaze scanned all around.

The Demon Bear is staring at me? Didn't it go to hunt down Ma Zhen?

Or could it be that Ma Zhen had already been dealt with by it? In any case, Zhang Miao was scared quite a bit, but after looking around, she didn't see the Demon Bear's shadow.

Just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, a figure appeared.

Jiang Tang, wearing a black leather jacket, came from the underground garage to the first floor carrying a Polang Drum.

He felt the power of the Hellfire and came here to take Lin Xiaowan away, then go to rescue the Demon Bear.

"Jiang Tang?" Zhang Miao recognized him at a glance.

The Night Watchers behind her heard this name and immediately stood ready, prepared to take action against this former colleague at any time.

Jiang Tang paused his steps.

His face was shrouded under a black robe, making it difficult for others to see clearly.

His voice was somewhat low and hoarse, as uncomfortable as fingernails scratching glass: "You guys leave; I don't want to take action against you; you are not my match right now."

He now not only had the Ghost Artifact Polang Drum but could even use a trace of the Wasteland Gaze's power.

Not to mention there was a Hellfire on the scene.

Sure enough, as his voice fell, the Hellfire walked toward him.

Then Jiang Tang, holding the Polang Drum, stood on its shoulder, looking down at Zhang Miao and the others.

"You..." Zhang Miao pursed her lips, her gaze firm: "Have you forgotten the Night Watcher Oath? Isn't becoming a lamp in the darkness the wish of all of us?"

Jiang Tang gave a cold laugh, seeming somewhat insane: "What do you know! That was the old me; the old me didn't understand anything, only knowing to become a light; that was really ridiculous."

"Now that I have experienced fear and joined fear, I have discovered that instead of becoming a light in the darkness, it is better to replace the darkness, to let fear become the darkness, and to dominate this world!"

"Zhang Miao, I'll tell you the truth, this world is already sick, very seriously sick; it won't be long before the Ghost revival erupts, and it won't be long before unknown creatures appear; do you still naively think that Ghosts are the biggest enemy? In fact, there is another kind of creature hidden in the dark."

"You humans simply don't have the power to resist it; join us, become fear, and only then will there be a glimmer of hope."

From the initial firmness to the current transformation.

It only took Jiang Tang a short week; all the firm missions in his heart had become nutrients for fear.

This world is already sick; to survive, one can only join fear.

"I don't want to waste words with you; I have things to do now; Little Wan, I've come to pick you up; it was the Demon Bear who asked me to come."

The Hellfire walked toward Lin Xiaowan, and Zhang Miao and the others mobilized their Ghost Energy, ready to fight at any time.

And Xu Jiajia grabbed Lin Xiaowan tightly, shielding her behind her: "Impossible, Little Wan is a human, she is going to stay with me; you hurry up and leave, and that Demon Bear should hurry up and leave too; don't even think about taking my Little Wan away!"

She roared, and at this moment, she felt no fear.

But.

Lin Xiaowan tugged at her hand and whispered: "Auntie, I'm leaving; Little Bear is taking me away."

Xu Jiajia's figure froze, her body numbly turning her head slowly, her voice hoarse: "Little... Little Wan, what did you say?"

Little Wan smiled: "Auntie, I'm leaving; I'm not the same as you."

She walked out, stood on the Hellfire's hand, and was then placed on its shoulder.

Swinging her legs, she let out a laugh like copper bells: "Auntie, don't worry, Little Wan will come back to see you; if you miss me and need Little Wan, remember to sing our song, so Little Wan can find you!"
