The taxi driver sent An Ju to the suburbs and refused to continue no matter what.
Anju carried his backpack and walked for more than ten minutes.
It was past eleven o'clock at night, and there were no passersby around.
Underneath his feet was a bumpy cement road.
There was a row of dilapidated bungalows by the roadside. It seemed that no one had lived there for a long time.
Following the route, An Ju arrived at the entrance of a residential area.
This neighborhood had been around for many years, and the gate had long rusted beyond recognition. Only a building was left inside.
It was the residential building that Guarding Light had challenged.
Anju suddenly noticed two red lights in the distance. They were the taillights of a car.
A van was parked below the abandoned house, and two people were standing beside the van.
One of them was a young man with long hair and small eyes. He was wearing branded clothes.
The other was an old man in his sixties. He was wearing a black coat and had an arrogant expression as he instructed Small Eyes to move things.
"Are you also playing the Guarding Light Challenge? Just one person?" The young man with small eyes asked.
There was no other reason to come here in the middle of the night.
Anju didn't expect that there would be others coming. Several thoughts flashed through his mind, and he chose to ask about the other party's background first.
"What's wrong with being alone?”
The small-eyed young man was amused." Brother, you're really bold. Don't you know that someone died here before?" Fortunately, you met us. Why don't we go together?”
It turned out that the young man with small eyes was called He Wei. He was considered a rich second-generation heir. He happened to see the Weibo post about the Light Protection Challenge, so he made a bet with his friend and came here to complete the challenge.
The old man in the coat was an exorcist invited by He Wei and called himself Mr. Fang.
Although He Wei was rich, he was nothing in front of exorcists. He Wei spent a lot of effort to invite Mr. Fang.
An Ju's gaze stopped on Mr. Fang.
This was an exorcist?
He looked no different from a normal person.
The ability of exorcists came from their inherited bloodline. Their blood could expel or kill monsters. The purer the bloodline, the stronger the damage to the Anomalies.
The Great Evil God System needed to hunt ghosts, and exorcists were responsible for eliminating monsters. So exorcists were fighting for jobs with Anju?
You killed all the monsters, what am I going to eat?
Anju was a little unhappy at the thought of this, but he hid it in his heart and decided to see what this exorcist was capable of.
Mr. Fang glared at An Ju with his nostrils and said coldly,"Hmph, another burden."
"You're so capable, it's definitely not a problem for you to bring another person along."”
Mr. Fang did not even bother to say anything. He raised his head disdainfully and agreed.
After chatting for a while, everyone entered the residential building.
Mr. Fang walked in front.
Anju followed Mr. Fang's footsteps. As soon as he approached him, the system, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly rang.
Variant body detected!
The system made a conspicuous mark on Mr. Fang's back.
"What's a variant?" Anju asked.
The chance of a variant appearing among humans was one in a million, and it had an attractive effect on monsters. The probability of encountering supernatural events was more than a hundred times that of ordinary people, so it was very difficult for them to live to adulthood.
An Ju couldn't help but look up at Mr. Fang.
This old man was something.
In this world, more people died from supernatural incidents than car accidents. Most people were lucky to survive two or three supernatural incidents, but Mr. Fang's chances of encountering a supernatural incident were 100 times.
The chances of getting into a car accident were 100 times. How could such a person live to be over 60 years old?
On the fourth floor of the abandoned residence.
They arrived at the room mentioned in the challenge.
The room was not big, with two bedrooms and a living room. The strange thing was that all the windows were blocked by bricks.
It was so dark that one couldn't even see their own fingers.
"Spread the tarpaulin!"
Mr. Fang instructed He Wei.
He Wei was busy in the room while Mr. Fang sat lazily in the middle.
At this moment, Mr. Fang saw Anju standing still at the door and said in disdain,"What's wrong with you? He was so lazy at such a young age! Did he not have arms or legs? Don't blame me for not saving you if something happens later!”
"Master, please calm down! "Why do you need to be distracted by such a small matter? You should rest well. When the time comes, stomp your feet and all the demons and ghosts will be finished." He Wei was simply a bootlicker.
An Ju sneered.
He had yet to see the abilities of an exorcist, so he would let him be arrogant for a while.
Under Mr. Fang's command, He Wei moved four outdoor lights, connected them to batteries, and placed them in the corners of the room.
Turning on the power switch, the room was as bright as day.
Just in case, he lit a few candles in the middle of the room.
The dusty generator at the door was useless.
The next step was to wait.
Anju looked at his watch. It was 11:50.
He Wei felt a little guilty and couldn't help but speak to An Ju.
"Brother, do you know why this room was chosen for the Guarding Light Challenge?”
"I don't know." Anju looked up at him.”
He Wei looked around and whispered,"I heard that an albino child used to live in this room. You know about albinos, right? Their hair was naturally white, without any black matter. Their pupils were red, and they could not see strong light.”
He Wei pointed at the window." The child has autistic syndrome and doesn't go out all day. So, the family simply blocked the window." A few years later, his family died in a car accident, leaving only the child alone. The child went out every night and found bricks to block all the windows.”
"Later on, this neighborhood was demolished, and only the children stayed. One night, the demolition company cut off the water and electricity. There were no windows to begin with, so it was as dark as it could get after the blackout. She heard that the child screamed in the room for three hours and then stopped. A week later, Demolition realized that he had died in the dark. So as long as we stay in a place with light, the children won't be able to touch us…"
As soon as he finished speaking.
Twelve o'clock sharp.
The outdoor lights in the four corners of the room went out in unison, and the room fell into darkness!
