This was the first time for Aaron to see his home from this angle. It felt a little familiar, but also a little strange.
This is an old house of some years. Just from the appearance, you can tell that the years it has gone through must not be too short.
The dilapidated and dirty walls look so out of place with the surrounding environment, and the architectural style of the entire building is still the same as it was decades ago.
If you hadn't seen people coming in and out from time to time, you might have thought it was an abandoned and dangerous building waiting to be demolished.
But don’t underestimate this building. Even with its appearance, in a place like Button City where land is at a premium, its value is no less than hundreds of millions of dollars.
This was not the first time that Zhang Xiaoman came here, and it was precisely because he did not find Aaron when he came last time that the following series of things happened.
"The place here is too small, and it's inconvenient if there are too many people. You wait for me here, and he and I will go over and take a look."
Zhang Xiaoman told Mr. Bei and Bei Na to stay in the car, while he followed Aaron into the apartment building.
Naturally, they went down from the roof. When they came to the inside of the building, an indescribable smell hit their faces, as if it was a comprehensive odor mixed with expired food, garbage, sweat, and shoes and socks. .
The area of this building is quite large, with a height of 9 floors. Inside is a corridor with a tube structure. However, because it is divided into more housing units, the overall space seems a bit crowded. The small corridor can only accommodate Two people walking side by side.
Although Zhang Xiaoman came here for the second time, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional about the environment here. It was hard to imagine that such a place could exist in a world-class economic center like Button City.
"Your Excellency Star Lord, my house will be here soon. Just go down two floors."
Aaron led the way. He scratched his head a little embarrassedly as he spoke:
"I'm really sorry. I didn't expect that the elevator was broken again. We have complained about this problem many times, but to no avail..."
Zhang Xiaoman shook his head and said it didn't matter, and he didn't particularly care about these things.
Although he has established the Star Alliance and has become a respected Star Lord, it is not like he has never lived in a living environment like this before, and he has even experienced worse ones. These are nothing to him. .
Moreover, the purpose of his visit this time was to find the Star Alliance beacon near the home of his younger brother Aaron, and he didn't care about these trivial things at all.
After the two turned two stairs, they suddenly heard a rush of footsteps in the corridor not far away. A black man wearing a beige sweater ran over in a panic. The look of panic on his face showed It can be seen from his expression that he seems to be avoiding something.
"boom!"
The man ran too fast, and Aaron didn't pay attention. The two of them immediately bumped into each other.
"Ya, Aaron? Are you back?"
The man in the sweater got up and was about to leave directly, but suddenly saw the person coming. He stopped immediately and asked a question in surprise.
"Well... Beru, what's wrong with you? Where are you going so fast?"
Aaron rubbed his somewhat red and swollen forehead and asked the guy in front of him.
This person is one of his neighbors, named Belu Blake, who is a friend he has often played with since childhood.
At this moment, Beru couldn't care less about reminiscing with his good friend. He looked behind him in panic, then turned around and said quickly to Aaron:
"Brother, listen to me, there is something behind me that is chasing me now. I have to get out of here right away! You'd better leave quickly. I've already called the police. The police will be here soon. Don't even try to catch that damn guy. Come to me!"
Aaron's black friend spoke very fast, and the expression on his face was very vivid. Not only did he not feel the fear he was suffering, but he even had an inexplicable sense of joy.
Beru planned to leave directly after saying that. Although it was surprising to meet his old friends, his own life was still the most important thing.
However, his movement was immediately interrupted by Aaron, who held his hand very tightly and refused to let him get away.
"Beru, what happened? What is chasing you? Maybe I can help you."
Beru was even more anxious this time. He quickly looked back twice, then turned back and said at a super fast speed:
"Hey, brother, I know, this sounds hard to believe, but I really encountered it. It was a ghost, a ghost with green light all over its body! Just like the rumors in the apartment these days, It's real! Now, it's targeting me, God, why am I so unlucky! Let me go and get out of here, it's coming soon!"
The black man Beru said a lot in one breath, then jumped twice and tried to escape. However, because of the excessive movement, he suddenly lost his balance and fell to the ground.
"Buzz~~~"
Just as Beru was scrambling to get up, a strange sound suddenly came from the end of the corridor, like a metal friction sound with a stretched pitch, which made people feel very upset.
"Oh, Fuck! It's coming after me!"
Beru suddenly shouted and looked at the corner of the corridor in horror.
The next second, a green light lit up, and a spherical object about one meter in diameter suddenly appeared, floating and rushing towards the location of everyone.
It was something that looked like a green light ball. It looked a bit like the skill light ball that Zhang Xiaoman drew in the lottery, except that it was larger and brighter than the skill light ball.
"Buzz~~~"
The thing made another sharp metal friction sound. Its speed was not very fast, but the corner of the corridor was not far from here, so it quickly arrived near everyone.
"Fake! Run! Run! It's coming!"
Only then did Beru come back to his senses from the panic, and then quickly got up and tried to escape.
Aaron was also startled by this sudden scene, but he did not leave immediately, but looked at the person standing next to him.
Zhang Xiaoman narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the monster in front of him. He now remembered where he had seen this guy.
That was when Lin Sisi called him for help and he went to his house for the first time. There was a monster like this attached to a painting.
He still remembered that the name of this kind of monster seemed to be wandering spirit. He also told Lin Sisi about the difference between wandering spirit and ghost at that time. He must have said that now because of the gang establishment order, those words at that time were not true. It has become real.
In short, no matter what, this thing is actually a weak chicken of the first level and low level. Zhang Xiaoman vaguely remembers that the original one seemed to only provide him with less than 5 points.
Immediately, he raised his arm and used a spirit-grabbing technique on the wandering spirit that was charging towards him.
