Abnormal paradise

In the intelligence provided by the foundation, there is very limited information about strange sounds. In many cases, this abnormal phenomenon that continues to get worse as the resonance increases will only make people upset and have no other negative effects.

However, occasional individual cases still show that strange sounds may bring additional changes outside the main line to corners of the city, making the situation more complicated.

However, the foundation did not give clear instructions on how to trigger the hidden link of the weird sound, and how much impact the hidden link would have on the main mission. This is what Ember has been worried about.

I hope I'm just overthinking it.

Shaking his head, Ember was no longer bothered by foreign objects. He opened the Greedy Perfume and threw it towards the bloated mountain of meat. The Greedy Embodiment, which had no normal biological form at all, did not care about Ember's movements at all, and still threw most of the soft The slumped fat body was squeezed against the wall, eagerly absorbing the smell of money emanating from the bank's bank. It wasn't until the greedy perfume fell on him that he realized something was wrong.

However, if you wait until then to take action, it will naturally be too late.

The perfume stains the bloated mountain of meat, just like sparks falling into a frying pan, instantly sparking a fire that engulfs the whole representation of greed.

The mouthless embodiment of greed can't even scream. It can only make its fat body roll left and right on the ground, trying to resolve the fire damage. However, the greedy perfume personally prepared by the six-eyed preacher can quickly kill greed. Original sin caused the bloated mountain of meat to shrink circle after circle at a speed visible to the naked eye, exposing its fatal weakness [Greed Crystal] to the embers.

puff!

boom!

A soft bomb blurted out exploded, accurately shattering the greed crystal that had lost the protection of its concrete form, allowing the concrete form of greed to be "liberated", and also announcing that Ember had taken the first step to secure victory.

At the same time, the worship leader who was far away in the Church of the Passion suddenly frowned and realized that the original sin was silent. He immediately ordered the Passion Berserkers to assemble on Artisan Street, but at this moment, Ember got on the carriage, Together with the workers who finished sprinkling the holy water, they walked quickly to the medicine hall.

There is a second embodiment of original sin near the medicine hall, and Yi Yan also needs to see the next movement of the warhead with his own eyes in order to confirm which embodiment of original sin should be the third strategy target.

"I don't know if Brother Warhead is impatient to wait. If he leaves the medicine hall early, it will be much more difficult for me to select a target."

The galloping carriage quickly left the north of the city. Under the cover of Zuicheng Xiangshui and a group of colleagues, Yi Yan's journey was smooth. What made him even more happy was that Warhead was still waiting for him to fall into the trap near the medicine hall.

Seeing this, Yi Yan immediately found an excuse to jump out of the carriage, and while using the spirit crow to monitor the warhead, he approached the arrogant embodiment not far away.

But at this moment, Yi Yan suddenly stopped because another figure appeared in Spirit Crow's field of vision.

"Why is he here?"

…

"Made, where did this kid die? Why hasn't he come back? Is he not ready to participate in the next stage? Or did he steal the holy water from the Church of the Cross?"

Warhead hid in the shadows near the medicine hall, thinking he could wait until Ember came to the door, but he did not expect that his actions had long been seen by Spirit Crow, and as time passed, he began to doubt whether Ember was really there. The worship leader was wanted.

"As far as I know, there has never been a soft substance in the corner of Sin City, and the Pai Zhong does not have such abilities, so it can't be anyone else except that kid. Wait another two minutes. If the person hasn't come back, I won't waste it here. hour……"

"Are you waiting for the embers?"

A voice suddenly appeared behind Warhead, startling him. He turned around suddenly and found Paizhong with a gentle face staring at him with a strange look.

"Yes...no, what do you want to do?"

For no reason, Warhead began to panic, because he felt a faint murderous intention coming from Pai Zhong.

Are you about to start taking action now?

Isn't it too early?

Generally speaking, the fight between explorers will be staged at the same time as the worship sacrifice, because the thirty minutes of the second stage, used to exchange for holy water for worship, plus completing many tasks, are relatively limited. A fierce battle may cause the rhythm to break. No two sides were completely defeated.

But Warhead knows that Pai Zhong should not be underestimated. Even among the group of reality distorters, the opponent is also a rare elite. He often does things that are difficult for ordinary people to do, and often tries to break the rules, especially in When facing "ordinary people".

Therefore, when the warhead captured the murderous intention from the platoon bell with the gunner's intuition, he immediately made the decision to strike first.

"The preparations I made to deal with the ember were originally intended to be used on you. Now that you are here, it is just right."

Warhead's heart skipped a beat, and something suddenly appeared in his hand, which he smashed to the ground. Then from Ember's perspective, he saw both the platoon bell and Warhead being sucked into a black cube.

This thing is no stranger to Yan Yan. Peeping Heaven's Secret once controlled an arena space, but compared to Warhead, it was far inferior.

After the black cube fell to the ground, the mechanical devices installed around it started to operate automatically. In just two seconds, it turned into a small turret, preventing anyone from taking the opportunity to get close, and at the same time making Ember give up the idea of ​​intervening.

"Let's see the results. Maybe the warhead can get an advantage from Pai Zhong?"

Just as Yu Yan was thinking this, he immediately saw the warhead emerging from the black square. He was bleeding from all his orifices and staggering. He was clutching his heart in unbearable pain. He was obviously severely traumatized and was eager to escape. He threw away the bell.

So fast?

It didn’t even take five seconds before and after!

Even if Pai Zhong is a reality warper, the strength gap between him and Warhead is too huge, right?

Moreover, the warhead is likely to set up a favorable environment in the arena space in advance. Perhaps as soon as they enter the arena, a hundred and eighty snipers will be aimed at Pai Zhong.

If the warheads take advantage of all the advantages, they are still far from the opponent of Pai Zhong, then I really have to be more careful in dealing with this real reality warper.

Yi Yan raised his eyebrows and stared at the black square through the spirit crow's field of vision, and saw Pai Zhong's figure suddenly appear.

What was considered good news was that Pai Zhong seemed to have endured a certain amount of pressure, and his face was much paler than before, but his gentle appearance had not changed. When the rotating turret was aimed at him, he held the hollow steel pipe in his hand and smashed it. , the next moment, the warhead that barely ran away felt like it was hit hard, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and it fell to the ground suddenly.

This is……

Seeing this, Ember immediately turned his attention to the hollow steel pipe held by the platoon bell. This kind of weapon was extremely rare, especially for university members.

The only thing that can explain this abnormal phenomenon is that the hollow steel pipe is very suitable for the twisting ability of the clock.

interesting!

Compared with Tiger Fuji's power explosion, Pai Zhong's twisting ability is obviously more bizarre. If he hadn't seen the warhead's encounter with his own eyes, Ember wouldn't even be able to accurately preset the defense range.

The warhead fell to the ground, lost his ability to resist, and his consciousness was blurred. He could not even make an automatic decision to give up his life-saving application.

Every explorer who participates in the corner of Sin City has a chance to admit defeat, but even so, the mortality rate remains high. If Pai Zhong is more ruthless, the warhead will have no chance of survival.

Pai Zhong, who walked up to Warhead, was not in a hurry to kill him, but made a move that made Ember feel bad.

He pressed his palm to the back of the warhead's head. Immediately, a ferocious ghost appeared from his left shoulder, circled around the hand of the bell, and then sucked out another smaller ferocious ghost from the warhead's head and swallowed it in one gulp. It dropped and strengthened itself, and then crawled back into Pai Zhong's left shoulder.

Finally, Pai Zhong looked irritated and tapped his ears with his hand, which looked exactly like an ember. This made him suddenly believe that the ghostly figure that appeared on the two of them at the same time was the source of the strange sound. For some reason, Pai Zhong actually made Pai Zhong The bell holds the secret of its ringing.

"Unexpectedly, it happened after all."

Taking a deep breath, Yi Yan no longer paid attention to the battle with a determined outcome. He immediately activated his twisted incarnation to release the power of the war cry, and rushed towards the arrogant embodiment that also had no biological form. However, the mysterious examiner who quietly appeared next to Pai Zhong was still He had to be slightly distracted from the battle.

"Do you really want to kill me?"

The mysterious examiner was in a bad mood. Although he checked that there was no problem with the gray fog seal, he still suspected that Ember knew some ulterior secrets.

Therefore, the secret examiner made the same judgment as Warhead, and wanted to block Huan Yu at the door of the medicine hall to ask clearly. However, before Huan Yan could wait, he was allowed to witness a short battle between an oriole preying on a mantis. As for what should be in the food chain The one with the cicada is still missing.

"That was indeed my plan before you showed up."

Pai Zhong put away the hollow steel pipe, took out a handkerchief, and wiped his hands politely: "If he can force me to use my legendary ability, he should be able to die without regrets."

"Legendary ability?"

Hearing this, the mysterious examiner's face suddenly changed: "You said you have mastered the legendary ability? Didn't your legendary ability not yet take shape? If it is true what you said, the combat power rating will definitely be more than 6,000, unless..."

"Unless I concealed it." Pai Zhong threw away the scarf and said with a faint smile, "No one stipulates that all reports must be reported in full. I concealed the two legendary abilities and the development process just to keep my trump card. Unfortunately, the warhead hit When it came to the point of the gun, he thought he was sure to win without much difference in combat power rating, so I let him see the cruelty of reality."

puff!

I don’t know if Warhead heard Pai Zhong’s words. He was unconscious and suddenly vomited blood again.

"It didn't take long for my legendary mark to condense. Even with the help of props, I won't be able to release my second true legendary ability in a short time. Let the examiner decide whether to kill or not."

Facing Pai Zhong's indifferent gaze, the mysterious examiner remained silent for a moment and chose to take a step back, not to interfere with the explorer's decision.

There is no need to offend a promising reality bender for the sake of an insignificant ordinary person.

Especially when the other party has ambitions that match their strength.

"very good."

Pai Zhong smiled slightly, flicked out an ice needle with a snap of his fingers, and casually ended Warhead's life. Then he looked at the medicine hall apprentices who had already discovered the fighting situation and stopped in the distance. He showed the private seal of the worship leader and ordered them to clean up the mess and leave it alone. to the sacrificial service at dusk.

"well."

Regarding the practice of arranging clocks, the Secret Examiner was noncommittal. As a community organization built around the Fool, the Secret Edge never lacked fresh blood. Losing a warhead was not harmful at all, and there was basically no need to explain the process to the scavengers afterwards.

"The lame man, come here."

At this time, Pai Zhong noticed the existence of the lame deserter and thought that he was somewhat related to Ember, so he tried to inquire about Ember's movements.

This time, he only caught one warhead, which did not satisfy Pai Zhong. The suddenly accelerated heartbeat of the lame deserter allowed him, who was particularly sensitive to sounds, to keenly capture a clue.

"has a problem."

The secret examiner suddenly thought to himself that he knew every corner of Sin City like the back of his hand. Faced with the greeting from Pai Zhong, the lame deserter actually showed an unprecedented change in his eyes, and this did not escape the eyes of the secret examiner.

"You...what are your orders?"

The lame deserter who was assigned to guard the door was the first person to notice the fighting. Although he did not want to join in the fun, Warhead's escape was towards the medicine hall, which made the lame deserter even want to watch the fun. , which also led to him being discovered by Pai Zhong.

"Tell me, where is Ember? By the way, Ember is the person who led you to the inner city."

"I don't know." The lame deserter shook his head heavily. Although panic filled his mind, he decided to keep the secret for Ember.

"You should understand the price of lying. I was ordered by the worship leader to investigate the infiltration of the Church of the Passion. Ember is the number one suspect. If you dare to cover him, you are an accessory! Now if I recruit him truthfully, I can give you some leeway!"

Pai Zhong's stern questioning almost made the deserter with bad legs almost kneel on the ground. However, he thought of Yan Yan's life-saving grace and thought of the six-eyed preacher who once let him go, and a strength from the bottom of his heart supported him. He firmly maintained his standing posture and shook his head in denial: "I really don't know where the ember is!"

"It seems you are unrepentant."

The lame deserter's attitude made Pai Zhong's eyes suddenly turn cold. Both he and the secret examiner concluded that Yu Ember had obtained some secrets other than intelligence from this concrete life, and immediately threatened him with deadly thaumaturgy.

The more this happened, the more determined the lame deserter became. Recalling the mantis shadow-eating insect eating the sacrifices, he wanted to cry without tears. He didn't want Ember, his savior, to cry because of his informant. No tears.

As a result, the lame deserter shook his head again, but before he could verbally deny it, Pai Zhong waved his hand and killed him on the spot.

"Obsessive."

Killing a concrete life has no psychological burden on Pai Zhong. It is a pity not to be able to find out the movement of the ember, but this will only slow down the rhythm a little. When the service starts, the ember will appear on its own, and then there is no need to do anything. Not a problem.

At the same time that the lame deserter fell to the ground, Ember also punched into pieces the arrogant concrete crystal of original sin.

He was extremely surprised that the lame deserter was swearing to keep it secret. He now had a reason to win. If given a chance, he would even try to leave the Pai Zhong in the corner of Sin City forever.

After all, for Ember, isn't Pai Zhong just a concrete life?
