Douluo: Evolution from the Human-Faced Demon Spider

Chapter 177 The Current Situation of the Seven Monsters

"Brother, do you know where all the original people in this academy have gone?" Outside Shrek Academy, Tang San, wearing a black cloak, asked a passerby in a low voice.

At this time, he already knew that he was wanted by the Spider God Cult, so he didn't dare to show off.

But the way he was dressed, and in such a sensitive place as Shrek Academy, gave people the feeling that he was trying to hide something.

The passerby uncle looked at him warily. He was dressed so timidly in the broad daylight, and was still asking about Shrek Academy. Everyone in Tiandou City knew that they had all died several years ago...

"Who are you to them?"

"I..." Tang San was stunned for a moment, realizing that this passerby was doubting him, "I am a foreigner. I heard from my family before that there is a distant cousin who is a tutor in this academy."

"Now that I have fallen into exile here, I am thinking of seeking refuge with him."

The passerby was skeptical when he heard his words, "Everyone in this academy is dead. They were killed by the Spirit Hall people. It was several years ago."

“Are there no survivors?” Tang San’s tone subconsciously raised a few degrees. What he cared about most was whether any of the Seven Devils had returned, as well as Master, Liu Erlong, Flanders, and the others…

But he soon realized something was wrong, "I mean, I hope my cousin is okay."

The passerby uncle looked at Tang San scrutinizingly. He felt that there was something wrong with this man from the moment he arrived. Seeing how excited he was after hearing about Shrek Academy, he became even more suspicious.

"Little brother, can you take off your cloak? It's creepy to carry something like that in broad daylight."

Damn it... Tang San's heart paused. Even if this person hadn't discovered his identity yet, he had probably already begun to suspect him. If he let him go, he would probably go to the Spider God Cult to report and claim the reward the next moment.

Thinking of this, Tang San had already quietly taken out a silver needle.

"Little brother?" The passerby uncle had not yet realized the danger, and even while speaking, he stretched out his hand to lift Tang San's cloak.

The next moment, Tang San flicked his finger lightly, and the silver needle silently pierced into the throat of the passerby uncle.

His outstretched hand paused in vain, then dropped weakly.

Tang San quickly took half a step forward and used his shoulder to support the body of the passerby uncle to prevent him from falling down so quickly.

Then Tang San looked around to see if there was anyone around, and helped the passerby to the corner of the wall, letting him lie on his side against the wall.

After doing all this, he secretly activated his soul power and jumped up from the top of the wall, climbing over the wall and entering the interior of Shrek Academy.

The Shrek Academy today is very different from when he left a few years ago. Not only is it overgrown with weeds and no one is taking care of it, the buildings are also in a state of disrepair.

Seeing this, Tang San felt even more heartbroken and quickly headed towards the westernmost part of the academy. He was eager to know how Master and the others were doing.

The master treated him like his biological father. If something happened to him... Tang San didn't dare to think about it any further.

The deeper he went into Shrek Academy, the stronger the ominous premonition Tang San felt. Please don't let anything happen, he prayed silently in his heart.

Soon, Tang San arrived at the westernmost part of the academy. This was where the master and the Seven Monsters used to live. The small wooden building they lived in was still clearly visible, but just like other places, it was dilapidated and desolate.

He continued to walk quickly forward and pushed open the door of the room where he used to live. Some of the things he used were still there, but they were covered with dust.

At this moment, there was a sound of something falling to the ground suddenly from right above the room where he was.

Tang San quickly rushed out the door and ran upwards. That was where Ma Hongjun lived. He was the only one of the Seven Devils who had not left the academy. Would he also...

Coming upstairs, he pushed open the half-open door and saw a figure as thin as a matchstick lying on the ground with a broken wine jar beside him.

"Ma... Hongjun?" Tang San patted the man's face. He was not sure whether this man was Ma Hongjun.

After all, the change in his appearance at this moment was really outrageous. In addition, his hair was disheveled and there was a lot of black dust on his face from somewhere, which made him look completely different.

But the aura on him was so familiar...

"Who are you?" The figure pushed Tang San away and reached out to grab the broken wine jar. Even though his hand was pierced by the broken pieces of the wine jar and blood was flowing, he had no reaction. It was obvious that he was very drunk.

"Ma Hongjun! It's me! I'm Tang San! Don't you recognize me?" Hearing his voice, Tang San finally confirmed his identity, stepped forward again and shook his shoulders, trying to sober him up a little.

"Third... Third brother?" Ma Hongjun used a dirty hand to lift up his messy hair. His cloudy eyes slowly opened and his gaze gradually focused.

"Are you really the third brother?"

"It's me! Who else could it be? How did you become like this?" Tang San looked at Ma Hongjun, who was now in tattered clothes, and the pain in his heart increased again. How could his brother become like this?

"Dead, dead, all dead." Ma Hongjun said as he suddenly burst into tears, still seeming to be unconscious.

"Who? Who died? Tell me clearly." The more he saw him like this, the more anxious Tang San became.

"Master, Dean, Teacher Zhao... they are all dead." Ma Hongjun cried more and more sadly, and leaned directly into Tang San's arms, unable to bear the pain in his heart any longer.

After the Shrek Academy tragedy, the other Shrek Academy students who had managed to survive quickly left this place of trouble.

Only Ma Hongjun was left alone to guard the family business, but under the dual effects of excessive sadness and evil fire, his mind became increasingly blurred, until now he has gone completely crazy.

It was only because of Tang San's arrival that he regained some luster for a moment, but after that, he just kept repeating the words, "Dead, dead, all dead."

No matter how Tang San tried to appease her, it was of no use.

Tang San knew that he had already developed an inner demon, and it would be impossible for him to recover in a short period of time. He could only help him to the bed, then left the academy with his fists clenched.

The death of Master and the others was a huge blow to Tang San. If he hadn't lived two lives as a human being and his actual age and psychological endurance far exceeded those of young men of his age, he would probably have been devastated.

On the way here, he had already found out some things: the Spirit Hall was defeated, the Star Luo Empire was invaded by soul beasts, and the top three sects were completely destroyed.

Tang San was a little overwhelmed by all these things, Dai Mubai and the others, Ning Rongrong and the others, and his own father...

They were probably all in danger, and the only one supporting Tang San now was Xiao Wu. Fortunately, there was no news about her yet.

At this moment, a voice came into Tang San's ears, "Hurry up, we are going to kill a hundred thousand year soul beast, this scene is not common."

Tang San turned his head towards the voice, only to see a little boy leading a group of friends running towards Caishikou.

"What did you say? Killing a hundred thousand year old soul beast? How could a soul beast of this level possibly come to Tiandou City? And even if they come, no one would dare to kill them in such a high-profile manner in the city. What if they hurt the people in the city?"

Tang San hurriedly grabbed the child and asked a long string of questions in one breath.

"Why are you so anxious?" The child grumbled, "It's just a hundred thousand year old soul beast. It's been tied up there for three days."

Then the child came closer to Tang San, "I'll tell you in secret, she is a transformed hundred thousand year soul beast, it seems she was originally a rabbit. I won't tell anyone."
