Guanshan gradually regained consciousness.

He opened his tired eyes, supported the ground with his elbows, and slowly sat up.

"Old Li, can't you help me up? You just threw me on the ground like this." Guanshan pounded his dizzy head and said with a little dissatisfaction.

"You are a dead man, is there any difference between lying down and sitting?" Li Yunxuan said as a matter of course while checking his mobile phone.

Guanshan supported his knees with both hands, climbed up from the ground, patted the dust on his body, looked at Shi Zhiyang who was motionless, and said "Huh" in surprise.

"Old Li, the awakener of the transformation system, won't he return to his original state after death? Why doesn't he?"

Guanshan squatted down and gently squeezed Shi Zhiyong's face with his fingers.

Even the bones under the skin have been completely beast-like.

The fangs at the corners of his mouth even pierced his upper lip, which was more terrifying than a real tiger.

"I don't know. I've asked the investigation team to send someone to deal with the aftermath. I'm afraid we need more detailed research to get the conclusion."

"Besides, there are more doubts about this mission than just this."

While Li Yunxuan was speaking, his eyes were fixed on the screen, as if he was reading something carefully.

"Are you referring to the fact that when we first met, Shi Zhiyang had no supernatural power fluctuations?" Guan Shan recalled a little and asked.

"Yeah." Li Yunxuan cast his eyes on Shi Zhiyang and said, "When we just entered the boxing gym, we both used the Qi of Vision."

"If you only had the fourth-level strength when you didn't activate [Rage of Revenge], there is indeed a probability that the other party would get away with it, but I can't see it either, which doesn't make sense..."

Guan Shan nodded and took over the conversation, "What he said at the end was also very strange."

"Why did he say that we were 'cowards' too?"

"Was Shi Zhiyang already crazy at that time?"

"So, while you were lying dead, I checked Shi Zhiyang's information. Take a look." Li Yunxuan threw the phone in his hand gently, and Guan Shan caught it.

Guan Shan turned his eyes to the screen.

Shi Zhiyang.

32 years old.

A native of Yaoguang City.

When he was 7 years old, he went on an outing outside the city and encountered a demon tribe that escaped from the rift. His mother was killed by the demon tribe.

His father blamed him for his mother's death.

After being reported by neighbors many times, his father tied up Shi Zhiyang and hung him up, using him as a sandbag to beat him.

At the age of 16, he participated in the awakening ceremony and became an awakener of the transformation system, with an ability level of S.

However, due to his psychological problems, all major colleges and universities did not admit him, and he became a casual cultivator.

At the age of 20, he served briefly on the front line, but he could not overcome his fear of the demon tribe. He was persuaded to return after serving for three months.

There were no more detailed records for the next 12 years.

No one knew how he reached the fifth level and why he went crazy.

The last record about Shi Zhiyang was that he returned to Yaoguang City 5 years ago, opened a boxing gym, and lived like an ordinary person.

On weekdays, he is not good at socializing. Apart from normal teaching, he has almost no communication with others.

He has no effective social interaction at all.

He is a social marginal person with no sense of existence.

...

So...

Did you keep hitting the sandbag before you lost your mind?

Did you think the person in the mirror was your father?

After reading the information handed over by Li Yunxuan, Guan Shan recalled every move of Shi Zhiyang before he lost his mind.

After exhaling silently, he said faintly, "Is it the childhood shadow that made him crazy..."

"There must be a reason in this regard, but the timing of his madness is a bit subtle."

"Why didn't he go crazy earlier or later, but at this critical moment, he fell into madness."

Li Yunxuan stroked his chin, paced back and forth in the dilapidated backyard and continued, "It seems necessary to ask the people who had contact with Shi Zhiyang before."

"There must be some connection behind the collective madness of the awakened people this time."

"If we don't find this source, more people will fall into madness."

"If one day, this fire passes over the casual cultivators and burns to the officials."

"If those soldiers on the front line also go crazy, it will be over."

Guan Shan nodded with a heavy face and agreed with Li Yunxuan's statement.

The two finished their discussion and turned to leave the scene.

According to the information recorded in the intelligence, the two quickly found the first whistleblower.

The landlord of the "Shangwu" boxing gym.

The landlord was a pot-bellied man with a high hairline, revealing a broad forehead. His sparse hair was deliberately combed into a shiny side part.

After seeing the ID Li Yunxuan showed, the landlord was a little scared and opened the shop downstairs from the boxing gym, and led the two into the store.

"Oh, the Shi Zhiyang you are talking about is indeed a weirdo." Landlord Zhang said slowly while stroking his non-existent hair with his slightly greasy fingers.

"I usually don't like to talk to him. Except for the rent, I can see him once. At other times, he is like a stranger and never greets me.

But then again, his boxing gym business is good, and there are often students coming in and out. I just don't understand why he suddenly became like this...

The day before yesterday, I went to collect rent from him, and I saw him blast two students out with a single hand.

I participated in the awakening ceremony when I was young. Although the level was too low to be worth practicing, I could see at a glance that it was definitely the means of a high-level awakener.

Recently, the Demon Slayer Department issued a notice that if you find an awakener around you showing abnormalities, you must report it in time.

So I hurried to report it. "

Speaking of this, Landlord Zhang shook his head, with an expression of both regret and relief on his face, as if he felt sorry for losing a stable tenant, but was glad that he was not affected.

"Did you provide this photo as well?" Guan Shan opened the album and showed the landlord a photo that appeared in the intelligence.

The landlord squinted his eyes and looked at it carefully, and nodded in confirmation.

"Yes."

"When you saw him the day before yesterday, did his appearance change? "Guan Shan asked again.

Somewhat surprisingly, the landlord shook his head this time and said very confidently, "No, the last time I saw him, he was almost the same as in this photo."

Guan Shan and Li Yunxuan looked at each other.

Their hearts sank subconsciously.

This thing is getting more and more wrong...

In two days, what could make a fifth-level awakener in his prime, from a muscular man, become so skinny?
