Donnie quietly watched the two of them chase and flee ahead, without any thoughts of going over to help.

The young man didn't run very fast, but thanks to the fact that the cloth freak was also not fast, he was not caught up. But it was also difficult for him to escape, because the cloth freak seemed to have his eyes on him, and no matter how far he ran, no matter how far he threw it off, he would eventually follow.

As a result, young people are tormented and stressed, and there is no escape.

Donnie looked at the cloth strip stranger, only to feel that the other party was somewhat familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

"I remembered!" Donnie's eyes widened as he pulled one out of his empty-wing backpack.

"City of Wild Sands! That's right, it's the monster in this book! ”

There is a rather abstract figure printed on the cover, although you may not be able to see it if you don't look closely, but if you look carefully, it is not difficult to find that the abstract figure is a six-armed and four-legged cloth strip weirdo.

This book was written hundreds of years ago, when the Commonwealth had just been formed, and the inhabitants were curious about other countries.

The high price tag of exotic items has not changed to this day.

In order to cater to the tastes of the majority of the population, writers have also made great efforts.

Crossing the ocean is out of reach for many people, even now, and most people can't afford to travel to a foreign land at great risk.

In addition to the dangers, the ticket is worth a lot of money.

Therefore, many of the authors who wrote about exotic elements at that time had not actually been to that country, but simply read some articles, or only through other people's oral descriptions, or even directly fancied.

This is how the book in Downey's hand is written, and it tells the story of the 'explorer' who brought a coffin back to the Federation from a foreign country, only to wake up the mummy in the humanoid metal coffin, wipe out the 'expedition' team, and wander the streets of the night ever since.

The scary point is that this monster with more arms and legs than ordinary people is immortal, and it also has countless small monsters, such as the monkey monster claws that can grant wishes - the way wishes are fulfilled is very deformed, and people will inadvertently make the first two wishes, which means that there is basically no good result after making a wish.

The writer who wrote this book regarded the Cloth Strip Monster, a monster that can only 'ho ho' and laugh weirdly, as the biggest boss, and wrote a number of horror books with the Cloth Strip Monster as the mastermind behind it.

Although Downey thought the story was a bit old-fashioned, he still read part of it in his spare time. So he knew that the weirdness in front of him was the main character in it, a mummy monster who never mentioned his name and surname, and had no identity.

"This is because of human emotions, born from the mysterious transcendent power!"

Until now, it was the first time Downey had seen this type of weirdness.

"Most of these weirdness come from horror stories or characters in urban weirdos, some of them can communicate, they can be defeated, they can be killed, but they can't really die, they will always reappear at the right time to continue their actions."

"Most of these weirdness will be harmful, after all, it will only be monsters that appear, not the main character in the book."

Donnie thought to himself as he continued to look at the two men who were constantly chasing after them.

In fact, when he found out the identity of the cloth strip monster, Donnie wanted to go over and save the young man, but he thought about it, this cloth strip monster usually does not do it himself, but will use other monsters or evil objects to harm people.

Although there are no absolutes in the world, and the weirdness that appears in reality may also change his style, Downey feels that this matter is not so simple.

So he checked it with his general eye, and then decided to watch the excitement with peace of mind.

Downey's actions did not cause anyone to be dissatisfied, but he seemed to be discovered, and the young man collapsed under the building where he was hiding.

The young man seemed to be too tired to continue running, and he fell to the ground because he did not stand firmly.

As in the episode, the cloth strip monster waved his arms and walked towards it with a strange smile, and his eyes hidden under the yellowed strips of cloth seemed to release a red light.

Well... It doesn't actually have eyes, it's just two strange gems that it once threw to greedy people in the story, causing them to kill each other.

The withered claws approached the young man's face, and the latter kept kicking the ground with his feet, trying to stay away from the terrifying monster.

The weirdness seemed to crave fear, ignoring the young man's screams, and its seemingly sharp nails pierced the young man's eyes.

At this moment, the gunshots rang out suddenly, hitting the strange heart of the cloth.

The bullet splattered with powder similar to dust, made a strange 'ho-ho' sound, covered his face with his hands, and left the scene as if he had been discovered.

Its speed suddenly increased, and the dense gunfire rang out, but the bullets were all behind it, and the strange arm gripped the wall, and in the blink of an eye it came to the roof opposite Donnie.

Downey looked at it, and it looked at Donnie, who 'ho-ho' at Donnie twice, as if to say hello, as if to intimidate and warn, and then disappeared into the night.

With Donnie's speed, it wasn't impossible to keep it, but he hadn't intended to do so in the first place, and instead turned his gaze downward.

The people who fired the shots had already joined the young man, and when Donnie looked at the outfits of these people, he immediately realized that they were all agents from Fort 13!

Judging by the state of these people, it is clear that they are fully armed, which means that the vision of Ogden City has been detected by the Federation.

Since you can get in, there is a way to get out, Donnie nodded secretly, it can be regarded as the possibility of leaving.

"It's justβ€”" Donnie looked at the agent who was helping the young man up, his face a little ugly.

"If the situation continues to develop, I am afraid that these people will not be able to survive the time to go back, and it is inappropriate to do it directly to them, and it seems that it is indispensable to take care of them secretly."

Donnie made a decision, seeing that the people below were planning to leave, he had no reason to stay, and went directly with them.

In the process, Donnie naturally spied on the communication between them throughout the whole process.

The young man calls himself Tom, a very common name, and there is no way to confirm it here, except for the use of supernatural powers, of course.

The five agents briefly confirmed his identity, including the steps to identify him as a human, and then told him that he could leave the place as soon as it was dawn.

In fact, hearing this, Donnie's heart was at the bottom, but for the sake of safety, Donnie still followed them until he came to a subway station in Ogden.
