Jack's words woke Lawrence up from his thoughts, and he looked where Jack pointed. What appeared in his eyes was a dilapidated residential building, and the place Jack pointed to was one of those small buildings.
Building.
This is a small red brick building that looks very cramped on the side of a road with potholes, sewage flowing across it, and garbage on the ground. It is closely adjacent to the two small buildings of similar length on the left and right. It is mottled and long.
Moss-covered walls, doors and windows made of wooden boards, and rusty outdoor fire escapes all illustrate the decay of this place.
The most eye-catching thing is that a spindle is painted with red paint on the walls of nearby buildings, which means that this area belongs to the Spindle Gang.
"Okay, you can wait for me here, or you can leave by yourself." Lawrence knew that Jack was really not suitable to move forward at this time, so he asked him to leave here first, while he slowly walked towards the building with a vigilant look on his face.
Walk in the direction of the building.
Perhaps because there was really little oil and water in this place and there were undead in the room, Lawrence did not find any traces of human activity nearby.
After walking along the wall to the door, Lawrence took out a revolver filled with exorcism bullets from his arms and held it in his left hand, then tried to push the main door of the room with his right hand.
Sure enough, the group of people did not forget to lock the door before leaving. After pushing twice but failing to push the door open, Lawrence gave up the plan of breaking in, and instead climbed upstairs along the fire escape.
Although the stairs were severely damaged by rust, Lawrence still reached the top of the building smoothly. Then he broke open the somewhat broken wooden door on the top of the building and entered the building.
The room was very dark, with only the light coming from the gaps in the wooden boards nailed to the window forming beams of light in the dust suspended in the air, barely illuminating the surrounding environment. After carefully looking at the surrounding environment, Lawrence cast a [Detection]
Measuring undead creatures].
A special energy emitted from his fingers, and then Lawrence moved his fingers as if holding a flashlight, so that this beam of energy could scan as many corners of the building as possible.
"Found it." Tens of seconds later, Lawrence saw a dim spiritual light appearing in a room on the third floor. After seeing this, he immediately rushed down the stairs in three steps and two steps at a time.
When he went down the dilapidated stairs to the third floor, a translucent and vague object floated out from the wall. Lawrence could see that the floating thing maintained a human shape, but it was vague.
It looked like it was made up of a mist. But the gray mist like a dark cloud showed that it was not as harmless as the report said.
After spotting Lawrence, the ghost who looked like a wet middle-aged man opened his mouth. Seeing this, he immediately stepped aside, then raised his arms and aimed at the ghost.
In an instant, a scream like scratching glass erupted from the mouth of the dead soul. However, Lawrence had successfully avoided the front of the ghost at this time, and at the same time, he had added [protection] to himself after detecting it.
Evil] had an effect.
While a cold wind blew from the side, the pistol held by Lawrence's right hand continuously fired silver exorcism bullets at the shadow floating in the air, and his left hand also released the magic of "Fighting the Undead".
In an instant, three glowing white marks exploded from the ghost's chest, and at the same time, half of the head hit by the magic of [Strike Undead] turned into dots of white light and disappeared completely."
"Squeak--" After a scream, the ghost immediately started spinning crazily on the spot. Lawrence saw that the wounds on its body not only did not heal, but were getting bigger and bigger.
The fatal weakness of undead creatures is not necessarily where they were when they were alive, but the newly born undead often habitually place their fatal points in the same place as when they were alive. Therefore, the newly born ghost in front of us has half of its head
Lawrence's magic was blasted away and he was fatally injured immediately.
In just a few seconds, the ghost completely turned into nothingness. Then a few wisps of gray mist were sucked in by the phantom of Bai Ze in Lawrence's mind.
However, since the ghost this time was not as powerful as the monster last time, Lawrence did not notice any more changes except that he could vaguely feel that the source of magic was slightly stronger than before.
"How can you increase the magic limit every time you kill a monster?" Lawrence laughed at his greed, then bent down and collected the loot.
After the ghost disappeared, a handful of transparent sand-like things were left on the ground. Lawrence took out a crystal bottle and carefully put the biting-chilling sand like ice cubes into the crystal bottle.
"I'm lucky. I harvested at least ten grams of ghost dust this time, and the quality is very good..." After putting the transparent gravel on the ground into a bottle, Lawrence looked at the sunlight coming through the gap in the window. "Whether you use it yourself or sell it.
Giving it to the church would be a good choice.”
After collecting the trophies, Lawrence began to carefully inspect the house. With the help of the [Detect Magic] spell, he quickly discovered that there were two places in the entire building emitting magical light.
One of them was a room on the second floor that was more luxurious than all the other rooms in this building. After entering, judging from the surrounding decoration, Lawrence felt that this should be the place where gang leaders lived in the past.
Following the guidance of the magic aura, he came to the closet with the open door. After looking carefully, he used a knife he carried to pry open the back panel on the side of the closet against the wall.
After a clanking sound, a lot of messy things fell from the wall hole covered by the back panel onto the wooden board under the cabinet.
"Let me see, this is -" Lawrence took advantage of the dim light outside the window to count. "Banknotes, coins, two gold rings, and a gold necklace with a simple self-purification enchantment inlaid with crushed sapphires. No wonder I found it just now.
There’s a magic aura here—”
"Hey, isn't this the bronze mirror that was taken away from me?" During the inventory, Lawrence found something that looked familiar to him. This also made him realize at once that the two guys who attacked him were from
here.
"Now these are all mine." Lawrence happily put the 32 yuan and 17 cents he had cleared out into his wallet, and then he packed all the remaining soft sheets together with a torn sheet from the bed.
He picked up a small package and carried it on his back.
Although this amount of wealth, which should be the private money of the gang leader, is not much, considering that these guys are all drunk now, it is an unexpected surprise for Lawrence to find their savings here.
"It seems that choosing this task is completely correct, and there is still extra money to be made." Lawrence thought as he walked downstairs to another place where the light flashed, "The next step is to see what is in the other location.
