Zhou Jinru took a breath of cold air and a sniff of water vapor. The fog at night was so thick. He didn't like this feeling at all. He thought that living in Londinium for a long time was simply a devastation to the respiratory tract.
The guard walking in front held up a lantern because he was not sure if someone would knock out the lighting in the tower again. Having a lot of lighting in the team also helped maintain morale.
When they arrived on the fifth floor, they were still not stopped. The guards who stayed on the fourth floor said that they were persuaded by the prisoners held there and did not move forward. The gangsters who broke into it did not seem to have any Stay and go directly to the higher level.
No stop at all?
Zhou Jinru was surprised. He said before that Dr. Wasim was imprisoned on the fourth floor, but he left without anyone caring about him?
"continue!"
On the sixth and seventh floors, the fog became thicker and thicker, as if you were in the clouds. Even the lantern in your hand could not provide much illumination. The warden stopped the team's progress and they stopped on the seventh floor. Every person here Each cell is closed, leaving only a small opening, and at most only a pair of eyes can be exposed.
At this time, everyone realized a question that had been ignored before. Where were the prison guards in the tower?
The warden's expression was a little distorted. He finally remembered that there were originally more than a dozen prison guards in the tower, but now none of them were found. Not only were no prison guards found, there were no traces of a fight.
In other words, all prison guards are accomplices of the intruders?
This is impossible!
Zhou Jinru kept narrowing the range of emotion detection. He noticed that the deeper into the fog, the lower the detection accuracy. Only the whole body can detect accurately.
The current situation is not an illusion, nor is it mental control, because there are no prompts or highlights for the mountain skills.
"The tower can not only go up, but also go down? Isn't the lower level a warehouse? Is there anything underneath the warehouse?"
No one answered his doubts.
People's hearts are shaking. The best choice is to go down immediately and find a way to ask for help from the outside world and open the iron gate that seals the tower.
"In groups of four, light all backup light sources and seal all outward-facing windows on the seventh floor."
The warden ultimately chose not to leave the tower but to maintain the status quo.
Zhou Jinru and three other guards formed a team, lighting the burning light sources on the surrounding walls and sealing the windows with wooden boards. These things were all in place, which meant that there was already a response strategy inside the tower.

The fog gradually dissipated in the closed environment, and Zhou Jinru could see clearly that there were originally four people around him acting, but now there were only three left, including him.
"This is impossible. John was still talking just now. Where did he go?"
A police officer's eyes widened in disbelief, like a fish that landed on the beach.
Not only their group, the originally crowded seventh floor suddenly became sparse, with a quarter of the people missing.
Zhou Jinru's scalp was numb. He held half of his face with his right hand. He seemed to have seen a similar scene somewhere and couldn't remember it for a while.
People disappearing in the mist...
Mist...
fog……
Mist Hunter…
Hunting abnormal mist hunters against abnormal mist hunters...
In the deep night, mist filled the air and anomalies appeared. Hunters set out to hunt anomalies and bring them back to order.
What is fog?
Fog is water, mist is... the deep sea, they fell into the mist, just like they were submerged in the deep sea.
Mist Hunters...are also Deep Sea Hunters.
Zhou Jinru no longer hesitated and called softly: "Lighthouse."
The fierce bright light was like sunshine that dispelled the fog, and the haziness in front of the eyes was pushed away, revealing their original appearance. They were standing in a pool of blood, and the dead were lying on the ground in a mess, most of them unable to close their eyes.
Zhou Jinru's face turned pale as his nose inhaled the strong smell of blood. The guards still standing around him were even more unbearable. Many people were panicking and holding on to the wall, opening their mouths and vomiting.
The warden had no time to trace what the bright light was. After the fog cleared, he saw the truth. He didn't even know if there were similar situations on the lower floors.
"careful!"
With sharp eyes, Zhou Jinru drew out the long knife from his waist and stabbed forward. A transparent figure was stabbed out unexpectedly and was revealed in front of everyone. It was a disgusting monster with a human body, but with a skeleton. The same body, with a streamlined head, deep-set, hollow eye sockets, no eyeballs, complete limbs, and a slender tail trailing behind it, with cone-shaped thorns on the top of the tail.
His headache came back, as if someone was cutting open his skull with a chainsaw, and there was a ringing in his ears.
"what?!"
The nearest guard yelled and subconsciously waved the weapon in his hand. Although the monster was knocked to the ground, its tail was very sensitive. The pale cone-shaped sting struck back and pierced the guard's chest straight, and blood sprayed like a waterfall. When he came out, the guard's eyes widened, he fell to the ground, twitched a few times and then stopped moving.
What exactly did you put out?
Zhou Jinru had a splitting headache, and some thought in his heart urged him to raise his weapon. He wanted to kill that monster!
Click, click, click!
The humanoid monster stood up quickly, and a second before it was about to turn invisible, a tall and thin man was seen rushing towards him not far away, throwing the weapon in his hand. Its steel-like body did not play any protective role, and the long knife Without any surprise, it pierced its body.
The man moved very quickly and rushed forward. He grabbed the long knife. The blade came out from the monster's back and penetrated deeply into the wall bricks.
The monster waved its forelimbs wildly, hitting the rigid shield with each blow. Zhou Jinru raised his fist and hit the streamlined skull crookedly. He used his right hand hard and inserted the long knife into the wall a few points. The monster stopped. After struggling, he soon stopped moving.
The warden frowned: "Who are you?"
"Who am I?"
Zhou Jinru covered his head. The headache did not relieve, and his breathing became rapid.
The moment he turned around, several guards raised their weapons and pointed them at him, as if they were pointing at a monster.
However, their movements were still a little slow. The tall and thin man kicked up the weapons scattered on the ground, shook off two fists, and knocked down three or four people in a blink of an eye. In his right hand, he even used a weapon used by the guards. The long knife was placed on the warden's neck.
"I am a mist hunter. As you can see, that monster is the mist..."
Halfway through his words, there was no monster behind him, and only half of the long knife was still exposed outside the wall.
"Gone?"
The warden looked at the empty sword, then at Zhou Jinru, and then his eyes fell on the body of the guard killed by the monster.
