The investigation had to continue.
But leveling up was even more important.
Just as Lin Ye was passing through a narrow alleyway,
his steps came to a sudden halt.
A sharp sense of danger pierced the back of his mind like a steel needle!
Lin Ye's body reacted faster than his brain!
He didn't even turn to look.
The muscles in his legs exploded with power in an instant, and he shot backward!
In almost the same instant he moved,
a jet-black afterimage, accompanied by a shriek that tore through the air, flashed past the alley's entrance!
The black shadow moved with incredible speed. Before its afterimage had even faded, Lin Ye felt an incomparably sharp edge graze past his face.
Lin Ye's eyes turned cold.
He got a clear look at his ambusher.
It was another Fusion Monster.
Its body was unnaturally long and thin, and it moved on all fours like a giant, skinned spider.
Its skin was a sickly, ashen color, covered in dried black bloodstains and weathered dust.
