There is still no news about the three members of Team 11.
Five days have passed since they left.
But does the lack of news mean that nothing bad will happen for the time being?
Lin Zuzu comforted himself.
Captain Zheng Mu of Team 10 also seemed to know the situation of Team 11. Apart from a daily inquiry, he did not assign any tasks to her during this period.
She highly doubted that Team 10 had taken over all the tasks in Area 11.
It deserves to be a top five team.
In the past, Li Qing would always conduct exaggerated training, and then complete the training by dancing a complete set of "Li" sword techniques.
Although Li Qin spends half of her time processing information and monitoring the training status of the girl, in order to ensure her flexibility, she will also practice modern fighting.
Yi Tingxie... Of course, he is as careless as ever.
Physical training, review of moves?
nonexistent.
In his words——
What I focus on is a "genius" character.
But now, the only sounds she could hear at Nuo Da's training ground were her own footsteps and breathing, and she suddenly felt a little lonely.
In fact, she is used to being alone.
She lived alone for six years. She was a little uncomfortable with it at the beginning and always cried herself to sleep at night, but later she became content with it.
If you never get it, it doesn't matter. You are afraid that you will lose it again.
For example, mother...for example...Team 11...
The silence here made her a little restless, and she even lost her breathing again during endurance training and accidentally lost her breath.
She gradually stopped weakly and heard Li Qin's words——
"Hold your belly and take a deep breath."
Lin Zuzu did as he was told and felt a little calmer inside.
You'll be back, right?
She exhaled and picked up the knife that she had temporarily removed for running again.
That night, Lin Zuzu was sitting on the carpet in front of the sofa as usual. She was watching video materials of actual combat exercises.
According to Li Qin's arrangement, her actual training will be after the first month.
Maybe it was because half the bucket of water was sloshing around, or maybe she was eager to get rid of being pressed to the ground and being rubbed, but she had been feeling itchy in the past few days.
"Clang."
There was movement on the balcony that caught her attention.
Could it be that... another strange incident is about to happen?
Lin Zuzu raised the knife and leaned against the wall cautiously. She exhaled calmly and slowly opened the curtain from one side.
"Jiangjiang!~"
Accompanied by a clear voice, a slender white hand opened the balcony door and stretched in. In his hand were three pieces of kraft paper style paper.
"Girl, did you lose this bounty or this silver bounty?"
Bai Jiu squinted his eyes and showed a nice smile, and his white ears twitched slightly.
Lin Zuzu breathed a sigh of relief and sheathed his sword.
"Welcome back, Xiaobai." She said, about to sit back on the carpet.
Welcome...hehe~
If the fox demon hadn't hidden its tail, the girl should have been able to see the propeller turning crazily at this moment.
"Hey, don't sit down, pack up quickly, we're going to go."
"What?"
"I'm here to pay the rent in advance."
Bai Jiu shook the reward order in his hand.
***
On the way to the remote District 16, Lin Zuzu carefully read the contents of the reward order.
Coincidentally, two of them were about the mission to find the cat demon Cindy and the family's antique watch that she happened to see when she went to Paradise not long ago, and the other one was about exorcising ghosts in an old house.
Bai Jiu activated a small interference illusion so that the driver could not understand what they were saying.
"I didn't expect that no one has taken up these two tasks?" Counting the days, it will be more than ten days.
"Because the bounty is too small."
Why?
"100,000? Less?" Lin Zuzu said in surprise.
Bai Jiu nodded. He had received dozens of times the reward for the shipment he had run for the organization before.
"But what a coincidence, the three tasks happened to be together."
"Although they are all in District 16, they are not in the same place. I did some research before taking the mission. The east side of where the cat demon disappeared happened to be the mission point where the watch was lost, and then to the east is the old house that needs to be exterminated."
"You mean... someone kidnapped the cat demon, stole the watch and then ran into the old house to hide and fake it as being haunted?"
"It's just a guess. Let's go and see what the facts are."
"Does the soul... really exist?"
In fact, Lin Zuzu wanted the haunting incident in the old house to be real, because it meant that the soul really existed.
If so, is it possible that one day she will be able to see her mother again?
"I think there are, but they have gone to other places, right? At least we are not strong enough to spy on this level of power."
Power? Speaking of which, she still doesn't know the strength of the fox demon.
"What's your level?"
"Hmm..." The fox demon thought thoughtfully, "According to your human rules, there are probably A-level low-ranking or mid-ranking ones."
Lin Zuzu suddenly felt scared.
God, how hot-headed could she be to threaten this fox demon?
"Then aren't you stronger than my master?"
"That's not necessarily true. The outcome of the battle among the upper, middle and lower levels of each main level is not entirely determined by level. The right time, place and people may influence the outcome of the battle."
For example, if the water element and the sky defeat the fire element, it is not impossible to win even if there is a difference in rank.
For another example, if a strong man of the ancient martial arts school is mentally tough enough or finds a way to deal with it, he will not be able to gain favor at all from the illusionist who gets close to him.
"But this human being is really powerful."
"My master?" Apart from jumping lightly from the sixth floor, she had never seen his true strength with her own eyes.
"Although demons are subject to birth, aging, sickness and death, their lifespan is still much longer than that of humans. We have enough time and talent to become stronger, but humans can rise to A level in just a few decades, and even become transcendent life and death.
S-class transgressors...are really amazing."
Beyond life and death... Lin Zuzu thought of something.
"Then can they see souls?"
"That's a very interesting idea."
…
The car stopped slowly, and the driver saw two guests getting out of the car in a trance.
He suddenly came to his senses and found himself parked in front of a dark and strange old double-story house. He couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, stepped on the accelerator and left without stopping.
A man and a demon pushed open the ajar door. The door, which had been in disrepair for a long time, made a "squeaking" sound, and the dark window opening seemed to come from the abyss.
Lin Zuzu couldn't help but tighten the knife in his hand.
Bai Jiu dispersed his mental power, explored the situation in the house, and found three auras in it.
There are two little demons and an object. It seems that the cat demon is among them. Is it really what she guessed?
He smiled slightly, snapped his fingers, and a ball of white flame appeared out of thin air.
Although it couldn't make the whole house as bright as day, it still gave the girl some comfort. After all, she didn't have thermal imaging equipment today.
Needless to say, mental power is really convenient...
After entering the gate, they walked along the deep corridor, which was like a dark place like hell.
Lin Zuzu noticed that there were traces of photo frames hanging on the walls on both sides for a long time, but now the photos on them were no longer there.
"Cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck..."
A creepy sound sounded from behind them.
Normally at times like this, when you turn around, you'll see something terrifying, right?
Lin Zuzu felt cold sweat broke out, but he still mustered up the courage to look back——
An old woman with sunken and hollow eyes grinned strangely, almost touching her face.
grass!
Lin Zuzu cursed in his heart, and raised the knife to strike like a reflex, but found that the blade did not hit anything real, and finally hit the wooden ground.
Bai Jiu chuckled lightly, pointed at the old woman with two fingers, and softly uttered a word.
"break."
In an instant, the old woman disappeared without a trace.
In fact, Bai Jiu had discovered the generation of low-level illusions a long time ago, but he just wanted to see the girl's reaction.
As he expected, that frightened and determined look was indeed very interesting.
"Let's go to the backyard and have a look~" Bai Jiu curled his lips.
