Apocalypse: My Tattoos are Ten Yama Kings-Chapter 49: Codename Night Traveler, Night Wanderer Tattoo
Seven figures shrouded entirely in black robes, wearing eerie masks of green faces and fanged grins.
Faced with the siege of twenty to thirty eighth-tier phantoms and evil spirits, they could only choose to temporarily avoid the brunt.
They guarded the labyrinth entrance, barely holding off the attack from the evil spirits outside.
Within the labyrinth, it was still relatively safe for the time being.
However, they had to find a way out!
Being trapped here, if they couldn’t get out, they would eventually become bloody food for the evil spirits and deceitful charms.
"Boss, being stuck here is a death sentence sooner or later!"
"Either way is death, I say let’s just charge out!" a man in a black robe with an eerie mask said gruffly.
Originally, the loose black robe made him look like he was wearing tight clothing.
Although he wore a black robe and an eerie mask, completely obscuring his features,
his large size and his voice, booming like a drum, revealed that he was a simple-minded, brawn-over-brain brute.
The leader of the black-robed men was already irritated by being blocked by evil spirits, and hearing the brainless suggestion of the brute only made him more agitated.
Their team of seven each had the strength of a tier-eight Life Pattern Master.
As the captain of the team, he could handle three tier-eight evil spirits at once without issue.
However, there were twenty to thirty tier-eight evil spirits outside; if they really went charging out heedlessly,
they might very well be shredded to pieces before even getting out of this folk horror park.
Chasing geese all day, and today the geese pecked their eyes blind.
When they lured other Life Pattern Masters here, they never thought they’d end up trapped themselves.
"Giant Spirit, shut up!"
"If we charge recklessly, I’m afraid apart from the Night Wanderer, none of us will get away," the leader of the black-robed figures reprimanded.
After scolding the brute, the leader of the black-robed figures pondered for a moment and said, "Let me think, let me really think about what to do."
At this moment, a thin, short man who had been pressing his ear to the wall suddenly said, "Boss, someone is coming!"
"From the footsteps, it’s three people!"
Upon hearing this, the leader of the black-robed figures’ eyes immediately brightened.
It’s like falling asleep to be handed a pillow.
He was figuring out how to escape, and help arrived.
"Night Wanderer, come here!" the leader of the black-robed figures called into the darkness.
At this time, another figure emerged from the shadow of a corner of the labyrinth.
It turns out their team wasn’t seven people.
But eight.
The man known as Night Wanderer had been lurking in the darkness, like a ghost in the night.
"Boss!" Night Wanderer stood before the leader of the black-robed figures, replying in his reserved manner.
"Whether we survive this time depends on you!"
"Only you can sneak through the evil spirits outside."
"Listen to me, you first do this, then do this, and finally...." The leader of the black-robed figures whispered his plan.
"Understood!" Night Wanderer nodded affirmatively, still few with words.
Soon, the black-clothed man called Night Wanderer summoned his awakened spirit body tattoo.
His spirit body tattoo was a humanoid about ten feet tall, with a small face and red shoulders.
Night Wanderer?
Anyone familiar with Huaxia’s mythological system would recognize this as the legendary Night Wanderer.
The man known as Night Wanderer deployed his Night Wanderer tattoo ability, merging into the darkness as one with it.
In the darkness, he seemed to teleport instantly.
After a few agile moves, he had exited the labyrinth and arrived outside.
Suddenly, numbers faced off against him.
As Night Wanderer stared at these deceitful charms and evil spirits,
they reciprocated the gaze upon Night Wanderer.
"Roar!"
"Roar! Roar!"
The evil spirits and deceitful charms guarding outside howled and lunged at Night Wanderer upon seeing him.
Seeing twenty to thirty deceitful charms and evil spirits lunging at him simultaneously, Night Wanderer couldn’t help but break into a cold sweat.
It all happened too slowly, yet so quickly.
Just as these evil spirits and deceitful charms were about to pounce on him, he suddenly became a mass of shadow, fully merging into the night.
"Thud."
"Thud, thud."
The first few deceitful charms and evil spirits lunging forward passed right through Night Wanderer’s body without injuring him at all.
This was Night Wanderer’s awakened tattoo ability, fully merging into darkness and becoming immune to all damage during the process.
However, the duration was very short.
Seven seconds, only seven seconds could be sustained.
In this brief seven seconds, Night Wanderer quickly dashed forward, breaking through the surrounding circle of deceitful charms and evil spirits.
After seven seconds, Night Wanderer made himself visible again.
By this time, he had already broken through the encirclement of deceitful charms and evil spirits.
Furthermore, he had put about a 200-meter safe distance between him and the deceitful charms and evil spirits.
However, even though he revealed himself, the deceitful charms and evil spirits did not pursue him.
Instead, they continued to guard around the labyrinth.
These deceitful charms and evil spirits, although not very intelligent,
they were quite perceptive of human presence.
The labyrinth housed seven people, while outside was just one person.
Where there were more people, these deceitful charms and evil spirits naturally concentrated their guard there.
However, since Night Wanderer was dispatched to lead away the evil spirits and deceitful charms, he naturally had his method.
"Clang", Night Wanderer drew the dagger hanging at his waist.
Then he fiercely slashed his wrist.
In an instant, blood spurted out.
Blood, flesh, soul.
This was the most favored food of deceitful charms and evil spirits.
A large amount of blood spurted from Night Wanderer’s wrist, and in a flash, the scent of blood attracted the full attention of the deceitful charms and evil spirits.
The next second, all the deceitful charms and evil spirits became frenetic, ignoring those trapped in the labyrinth.
Instead, they charged after Night Wanderer.
The black-robed man who previously pinpointed Lin Yuan and his group’s position, codenamed "Diting," had already informed Night Wanderer of Lin Yuan’s group’s location when he emerged.
Seeing all the evil spirits and deceitful charms driven mad by the scent of blood, chasing after him,
Night Wanderer wasted no time, sprinting toward the location Diting indicated.
Now is the dead of night, and those who can move at this time must be Life Pattern Masters.
Moreover, they were likely capable Life Pattern Masters.
He intended to lead the deceitful charms and evil spirits to the location of those three Life Pattern Masters.
Then, let the three Life Pattern Masters act as scapegoats, drawing the fire of these deceitful charms and evil spirits.
By then, the black-robed team trapped in the labyrinth could seize the opportunity to escape.
As for Night Wanderer himself, his specialty was running away.
Once he had led the evil spirits and deceitful charms to Lin Yuan’s location, he had his way to escape.
