The sound of hurried footsteps suddenly broke the silence, and two figures rushed into the park in panic, looking back in horror as they ran.
"Damn it! Who is that guy? He attacked us for no reason!" Qiu Mingtao gasped for air, his right hand tightly covering his waist, and bright red blood slowly seeped out from between his fingers.
"Stop talking nonsense and run away quickly!"
Zhang Huai's face was pale, and a bone-deep wound on his right arm was clearly visible. The severe pain caused the corners of his eyes to twitch, but he did not dare to slow down for fear of being overtaken by that scary guy.
Tonight, the key members of the Green Cross gathered together for the first time in a long time, intending to discuss the disappearance of Captain Curtain, but suddenly someone broke in midway and started killing.
There were more than a dozen warrior-level players present, but they were no match for that person. Most of them were killed in a blink of an eye, leaving only the two of them fleeing in panic, finally getting rid of the enemy.
"Probably they are enemies the team has made before." Zhang Huai said in a low voice.
When the two captains were still there, Qingzi acted arrogantly and domineeringly, which offended many people. It would not be surprising that someone would add insult to injury and take advantage of Qingzi's troubles to take revenge.
It's just that the opponent's strength is beyond their expectations, and it is definitely elite level.
Hearing this, Qiu Mingtao gritted his teeth but did not refute.
At this time, a shrill scream suddenly sounded in the air.
As soon as they heard this voice, Zhang Huai and Qiu Mingtao's hair stood on end. Without thinking, they immediately threw themselves forward and narrowly avoided two wisps of cold light that passed over their heads.
The next second, there was a soft click sound, and two cold lights hit the stone chair not far away at the same time. When I looked closely, I saw two scalpels flashing with cold light.
The hard stone seemed as fragile as tofu under the scalpel. The blade was deeply embedded in the chair wall, leaving only the handle trembling slightly.
After escaping the attack, Zhang Huai and Qiu Mingtao immediately jumped up from the ground and looked at the exit of the park in panic, where a man appeared out of nowhere.
The man was wearing a black trench coat. He was about thirty to forty years old. His skin was obviously whiter than ordinary people, and his body was very thin. He looked frail. However, I had seen him.
Zhang and Huai, who slaughtered their teammates, deeply understood the terrifying power contained in the seemingly thin body in front of them.
The most heart-stopping thing was his pair of deep eyes, which contained extremely cold murderous intent, shooting straight at Zhang Huai and Qiu Mingtao like sharp arrows.
After meeting the eyes of the man in the trench coat, the two couldn't help but swallow their saliva, and the grunting could be heard clearly in the silent night.
After a while, Zhang Huai took the lead in breaking the silence and said very fast:
"Friend, if you have anything to say, if we have ever offended you, we might as well tell you and we can make compensation. We can even pay you points. There is no need to kill them all, right?"
Qiu Mingtao on the side nodded repeatedly, looking at the man in the trench coat with a look of flattery and pleading.
Only when he actually faced off against elite players did he realize how terrifying players of this level were, not to mention that the man in front of him who was chasing them was several points more powerful than Captain Curtain.
"Points? I don't need this kind of thing!"
To the surprise of both of them, the man in the trench coat said expressionlessly, "Qing Cross and I have no grudge against you."
Zhang Huai and Qiu Mingtao were stunned for a moment, and Qiu Mingtao shouted angrily: "Then why are you chasing us?"
"Do you need a reason? Weakness is the original sin. Are incompetent wastes like you worthy of being called players?"
"I don't allow waste in my hunting grounds, so I have to let you die."
"Just because of this inexplicable reason, you killed so many people?" Zhang Huai stared at the man in the trench coat in disbelief. This guy is simply a madman.
"It seems that you can't understand it, either. Otherwise, how can you call it a waste?"
The man in the trench coat curled his lips upward, revealing a cold and arrogant smile.
"The hunting continues. If you don't want to die, just struggle with all your strength and resist!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he flicked his ten fingers, and eight scalpels flashing with sharp cold light instantly appeared between his fingers. At the same time, he kicked his feet, leaned forward slightly, and rushed out like a vicious wolf.
Xiang Zhang Huai and the others.
"I'll fight you!"
Seeing this, Qiu Mingtao couldn't bear the fear any longer, shouted as if he was giving up, and charged towards the man in the trench coat.
With a pop, a bright blood flower slowly bloomed in the dark night
"I'm serious, I often see owls in the community when I patrol at night recently."
"Nonsense, why are there owls in the community?"
"That's right, I think you drank too much and started to hallucinate."
When Lin Ze passed by the gate of the community, he happened to hear the conversation of several security guards, and a strange look flashed across his face.
He kept walking to the door of the rented apartment. He took out the key and opened the door. The first thing he saw was Lin huddled on the sofa, munching potato chips with relish and watching the variety show on TV.
programme.
"It seems you are very familiar with life here."
Lin looked back with a smile on her face, shook the bag of potato chips in her hand, and said with a smile: "These potato chips are quite delicious, do you want some?"
"No."
Lin Ze waved his hand, sat down on the sofa, and asked casually, "You sent the owls in the community, right?"
Lin nodded: "Yes, after all, this is where I live. I have to ensure the safety of the area, so I let my little cuties work harder and monitor the entire community."
After a pause, she asked again, "But how did you know?"
Lin Ze recounted the conversation with the security guard at the door.
"I see, I was negligent. It seems that owls are not common creatures in the community." Lin patted her forehead, "When I was on Siyao Island, owls could be seen everywhere, and even a few of them wouldn't attract anyone's attention.
, there is also a difference between the two worlds in this regard.”
"Not only in communities, but also in cities. Owls are a rare animal to see in daily life."
"Understood, I will make some disguises later."
At this point, Lin seemed to suddenly remember something. She put her finger on her chin and said, "Speaking of which, I found a resident in the community who is also a player like you."
"Oh?" Lin Ze raised his eyebrows, becoming interested, "Who is it?"
"A girl."
"How did you find out?"
"It was just an intuition at first. I always felt that she had an aura similar to yours, so I paid more attention. It turned out that she often ran out at night, and occasionally came back with blood stains on her body. Out of curiosity, I
I followed her a few times, and happened to see her dealing with an ugly monster once. Is that the monster you call?"
Because he wanted Lin to help search for monsters, Lin Ze explained the existence of monsters and the players' affairs to her very early.
"It must be a monster. What's that person's name? Where does he live?"
"I live in Building 7, Room 905." Lin replied.
Lin Ze was slightly startled, feeling that the house number seemed familiar. The next moment, Lin Ze continued: "My name is Zhou Ning."
Zhou Ning?
Lin Ze was stunned, and then he remembered that 905 was the apartment room where Zhou Ning lived. He and Kaixin Li had gone there before to hunt monsters.
"It seems that staying in Siyao Island for 30 days in a row has some effects. Many memories are a bit blurry. I didn't remember in advance that Zhou Ning also lives in the same community." Lin Ze tapped his temple.
"What? Do you know that person?" Lin was keenly aware of the strangeness in his demeanor.
"We know each other, but I'm not an acquaintance." Lin Ze waved his hand and ignored the topic, "Now that you are familiar with the real world, you can start searching for monsters."
"Okay, I knew you came here today to urge me to work."
Lin put down the bag of potato chips in her hand and straightened up from the sofa.
"You just need to first look for unusual events in this city through the Internet, and then conduct on-site investigations, right?"
Lin Ze nodded. This was the most suitable method he thought of. Lin had an owl to assist her. As long as she was familiar with the road conditions in the city, it was not difficult to conduct multi-line investigations at the same time. With her help, she could search for monsters by herself.
The efficiency will be much higher, and you no longer have to search aimlessly by yourself.
"I just happened to have summoned a lot of little cuties in reconnaissance form recently, which should be enough." Lin snapped her fingers, and immediately heard a flapping sound of wings, and an owl about twenty centimeters tall came out of the window.
It flew in and landed on her shoulder.
Lin Ze glanced at it and knew that this was an owl in reconnaissance form. Its eyesight and flying speed were far superior to ordinary owls in reality.
There are also owls in suit form and mini form. Not to mention the former, the latter is a palm-sized, very spiritual little owl, which is usually used by Lin as a communication tool.
However, there are mobile phones available in the real world, so this form is of little use.
The last one is the owl spirit form. According to Lin herself, it is the most powerful of the four forms, and it is also her trump card. When used, she can also have good combat power.
However, it consumes a lot of money and cannot be used easily.
"After discovering the monster, if it is a lower-level monster, you can kill it yourself. If it is an intermediate monster, it is best to contact me to deal with it together."
For monsters killed by summoned creatures, the points will naturally belong to the summoner.
Lin's strength has surpassed that of ordinary elite players. It is no problem to deal with lower-level monsters alone. However, there are many troublesome existences among intermediate monsters. Just in case, Lin Ze still thinks that it is more appropriate for him and Lin to work together to deal with them.
After all, summoned objects transformed from plot characters like Lin are just like players. If they die in reality, they are really dead.
