Chapter 1366
Just as Felix felt lost, a woman smiling at him from a jewelry shop nearby caught his eye. Her smile was faint, but in such an odd mall, it stood out even more. Otherwise, why would it catch Felix's eye?Her smile was fleeting, disappearing in mere seconds. If it lasted any longer, the people in the mall would probably turn to glare at him again. After seeing the woman turn around and walk away almost robotically, Felix quickly followed her at the same mechanical pace.She led him to an emergency stairwell and as Felix pushed through the door, she stood there waiting for him. "You've got the guts! Most people would've freaked out when they walked into this mall, but you seem quite calm," she said.Felix didn't know what the Black Soul Scout wanted with such an illusion, however, he didn't dare to act rashly. He was afraid of scaring them away. Besides, he could guess that the scout wasn't in the mall, otherwise, Donna would've sensed it."Who are you? What happened to Orchard Squ

Felix knew these were all illusions, but he still reacted because it looked too real. After speaking, the middle-aged man went downstairs. Esme glanced at Felix and motioned to follow him. She didn't want to alert the enemy and wanted to see what was happening first. They followed the middle-aged man down to the basement and pushed open the emergency door. They entered the basement of Orchard Square. It was a standard mall layout, after all. Felix saw two queues not too far away, but he didn't know what they were lining up for."Get in line. It'll be your turn soon." With that, the middle-aged man left. He clearly wasn't worried about Felix and Esme running away. The two of them looked at each other and Esme gave him a slight nod, intending to stay put. Felix immediately understood that there were too many people around.If a slight expression crossed his face, everyone would stare at him and he would be regarded as a foreign entity, let alone if he ran. Besides, if he moved, w

After closing the emergency door, the two finally stopped. "Are we safe?" Esme panted.After a moment of thought, Felix replied, "I think so. Then, I'll head back to grab our clothes."Esme immediately grabbed his arm. "Hey! You said you would listen to me. If you go back, can you guarantee to come back? I'm a woman, and even I don't care yet you're the one who can't let it go?"Anyone who saw them would've thought they were having an intense argument. But in fact, they were simply left with no choice."Besides, the second floor sells clothes. Why should we risk going back?"Felix rubbed the back of his head sheepishly. "You're right. Okay, let's go." All of a sudden, the emergency door slammed open with a bang. A dozen of the mall staff rushed in. "Intruders! Intruders!"Without hesitation, the two of them ran upstairs. Esme stopped again after a few steps, confusion spread across her face."Do… Do they think they can catch us at that speed? I wonder what the guy controllin

The bodies and limbs of the mall staff were trembling violently on the floor. When the two of them looked over again, the staff had all regrouped, rushing over once again.Were they indestructible like cockroaches? Felix and Esme began punching and kicking helplessly. Fortunately, they were both on solid ground. Otherwise, they would've tripped and fallen to their deaths.It took a bit of effort to finally disperse them all again. Having learned their lessons, they didn't dare to hesitate anymore and rushed up the stairs madly. Sure enough, the mall staff collected themselves and started moving much faster!It was coincidentally similar to the characteristics of Malevolent Phantoms. Was it just a coincidence or intentional? Felix pondered in his mind as they rushed through the emergency exit to the second floor with Esme. Finally, they reached the second floor of Orchard Square. The door behind them slammed shut—and there was pure silence. It was as if they were completely isolate

The large man—turned beautiful woman—left immediately without paying. Could the human skin she had taken off be payment? The saleswoman hung the human skin suit in replacement of the previous one."Let's find the entrance to the third floor," Felix said.Esme smiled bitterly, pointing to a sign not too far away. The sign said, "Customers who enter without purchasing will be regarded as 'undesirable customers.'"But how could they buy these "clothes"? They had to peel off their own skin and put on someone else's! This was more unacceptable than having their limbs sawn off on the first floor! All of a sudden, everything clicked in Felix's mind. Donna had mentioned that the third soul barrier was meant to collect soul essence. Could this be a way the Black Soul Scout collected them?Just then, the saleswoman who greeted them no longer had a kind smile. Instead, her eyes flashed green as her expression turned ugly. "Sir, madam, what do you mean by this? Are you choosing to be 'undesi

"Something's wrong," Felix muttered immediately. Esme pulled off the two charms and put it away. "I don't know what's going on yet, so I'll take the charms off first."Felix had no objections to this because he had already realized that Esme was just a tool created by the Black Soul Scout, or the soul barrier, to help him forward. With her, he was able to proceed to each floor. Otherwise, if he really thought about it, passing the first floor would be easy.But on the second floor, any ordinary person would've been killed immediately. When he understood this, he naturally knew that if he listened to Esme, he would definitely go through each floor and escape easily. This meant that he could definitely escape from this weird mall.The two of them walked through the emergency exit and once their eyes got used to the dark, they still couldn't find anyone. The entire room was in pure silence. "Should we find the next emergency exit?" Felix suggested. Esme quickly agreed. The two of

In the next moment, the floral dress wrapped itself around the body. Felix swore that he didn't blink, but the woman's body completely disappeared when the dress attached itself.It was like the body donned an invisibility cloak! No matter what this "disappearance" meant, Felix and Esme absolutely did not want to find out; even if it was just an illusion for Felix. In less than 30 seconds after the suit and dress left, a set of sportswear walked in. His voice sounded young. "Alas, it's the same as always everyday. There are no new items and I'm so tired of wearing them."The sportswear walked around the store, seeming to be inspecting each body closely before muttering something and leaving. When Felix saw that there was no one left in the store, he quickly spoke to Esme."What should we do? Hiding like this isn't ideal. Do you want to rush out and fight? We might even have a chance…"Esme shook her head slightly. "No! You saw it too! The bodies disappear as soon as the clothes t
Chapter 1373
As Felix looked at the various swarms of clothing rushing into the store, he had no time to think and decide. In his "final attempt" to escape, he closed his eyes desperately, letting the clothes swarm him.Felix had decided to take a gamble. Orchard Square had never reported a murder, after all. The Black Soul Scout had set up multiple soul barriers, making it complicated. It was definitely not for killing.Otherwise, wouldn't it be better to have done it from the start, or killed them in secret? Why did they have to go to a mall where people gather?When Felix opened his eyes again, he knew he had won his bet. At this moment, he was definitely still in Orchard Square. He was sitting on a bench and the customers who walked in and out were extremely normal.He turned to look at the time and it had been an hour since he had entered Orchard Square. Strangely, it lined up perfectly with the time he had spent in the illusion. As he glanced around, he noticed a few people sitting on cha
