Card Master Guide.

Chapter 113 Monsters siege the city, and the rainstorm suddenly arrives

The weather was sunny, and a cruise ship was moored at the port of Xihai City. The hull was severely worn, as if it had just experienced a storm.

Unattended containers piled up on the docks, like parcels stuck on a shipping line.

The manager of Xinghuo Group negotiated with the construction team leader, looking displeased:
"It will be docked for three days? Can't the repair progress be accelerated?"

The man in the hard hat said disdainfully: "Do you think there is any manpower now? The monster incident is so big that the laborers have already run away! It is enough to give you face to find someone to repair your boat!"

The manager thinks, you are clearly setting the price on the ground.

The words were not speculative, so I had to turn around and go back to the deck.

There was a large eye-catching hole on the deck. Looking at the hole, the manager's eyelids twitched. It was actually kicked out with a human body.

Come to think of it, the physique of some monsters is far inferior to the man in front of him!

The manager stared in awe, rubbing his hands, looking at the man in sunglasses lying on his back on the sun lounger, holding a photo album of beautiful women, with a draft in his heart.

"Speak quickly if you have something to say." Fan Shatian appraised the portrait, his tone was lazy, revealing an undeniable majesty.

The manager carefully worded his words: "Well, Mr. Fanshatian, the cruise ship was severely damaged, and we still have to stay in the Golden State for three days... On behalf of Xinghuo Group, I would like to express my deep apologies for the inconvenience caused to you..."

"There's no need to talk nonsense."

Fan Shatian spread the photo on his chest, lowered his sunglasses, revealing a pair of fierce and sly eyes:
"For these three days, I'll disembark and move freely, and it's not included in the [-]-day itinerary—is it okay?"

"Of course no problem! Go ahead!" The manager straightened his back, paused, and suggested: "Please allow me to remind you that the Golden State is not safe recently, and S-level monsters are rampant. After three days, we will set off immediately Bar……"

The S-class monsters from the deep sea caused a lot of panic in Xihai City.Even though there are national scholars in Xihai City, a large number of citizens still flee, and the whole Xihai City is about to storm, like an ant nest that is anxious before the rainstorm.

"S-level monsters are still secondary." Fan Shatian said lazily, "Everyone is more afraid of the monsters of the sea!"

Hearing this, the manager nodded.

The giant killer crab reminded the citizens of the "monster of the sea" that ravaged the Golden State more than ten years ago.

More than ten years ago, Theseus, the "monster of the sea" who ravaged the Golden State, was like the mythical Hydra, possessing the ability of "immortality".

At that time, Litel, a federal national who was good at wielding a saber, chopped off three heads of Theseus like sea snakes with one blow.

Just as the people were rejoicing, the other six heads hidden under the sea suddenly launched an offensive, seriously injuring Litel.People were horrified to find that the monster of the sea had nine huge heads, even if one was cut off, the broken head would immediately grow back.

When the world was in despair, Lytel rushed to Theseus, swung his saber, burst into flames as bright as the sun, and sank into the sea together with the monster of the sea.

During the tour around the Golden State, the manager talked about this matter with Fanshatian many times, and at this moment he couldn't help but sigh:

"It's a pity that Litel is no longer here, otherwise, even if Theseus makes a comeback, there is no need to worry."

"I heard that Litel has another son." Fan Shatian suddenly gossiped.

The manager replied, "This... I don't understand, it seems to be true, and Littel's son, it seems that the same kind of fire was lit..."

"I am a hero, I hope my son is not a coward."

Fan Shatian grinned, Yu Dating jumped off the beach chair, put one hand in his pocket, and waved with his back:
"I'm going to Xihai City for a stroll, and I'll be back soon!"

*
At ten o'clock in the morning, the flight arrived in Xihai City.

Lin Xiao and Qiao Linna walked out of the airport. The iron-gray sky was covered with overcast clouds, and the air was humid. Pedestrians seemed to have a premonition that the rainstorm was coming, and their footsteps were hurried.

"It was fine in the morning, but now the weather has changed." Lin Xiao raised his head.

"Find a place first, and wait for the raven to come." Qiao Linna glanced at the news and said, "He seems to have something to explain to us."

"Wait a minute." Lin Xiao lowered his head and took out his mobile phone, and opened the chat interface of Jinlong Zhenjun.

The last message was sent before boarding the plane.

"Epee man: "Zhenjun, where will we meet in the afternoon? ""

"Golden Dragon True Monarch: "Around four o'clock, in the square near the sandy beach of the West Sea, I will temporarily live here. ""

"Golden Dragon True Monarch: "You're here, it's probably dinner time, we can have a seafood feast. (grinning)""

"Epee Man: It's been hard work killing monsters, this time I invite you. (Leopard Laugh·Jpg)"

"Golden Dragon True Monarch: "This...it's a long story, let me explain it to you in person! ""

The face-to-face time is at four o'clock in the afternoon, so there is no need to rush there. It is not too late to drive a motorcycle to the beach of the West Sea after the schedule settles down.

The meeting place agreed with Brother Chu Yun is located in the commercial center a few kilometers away from the airport. The headquarters of the investigation team of Xihai City is set up there, which is in the same direction as Xihai Beach.

Lin Xiao thought, it's strange... what Zhenjun wants to explain, I should know later...

"Go to the commercial center first, and wait for Raven." Lin Xiao put his phone back.

"If you take the elevated road, the journey will take about half an hour... Do you have a vehicle card?" Qiao Linna asked.

"There is only one single-person motorcycle." Lin Xiao said.

"Well... I prepared in advance."

A vehicle card was condensed between the fingers of the girl with the high ponytail, injected with the source power like a golden flame, and casually threw the card towards the parking space.

The light particles condensed into a dark red sports car, and the two long and narrow lights on the front flickered.

The car logo is a pair of flying wings, which originated from the glorious old car manufacturer, Aston Martin.

"boarding."

The model is not as ostentatious as the red Ferrari, but a gentleman and restrained in a glorious country.

The muscle memory provided by "vehicle driving" made Lin Xiao eager to try: "Do you need a driver?"

Qiao Linna hesitated for a moment, she was indeed better at driving motorcycles, nodded and said, "If possible, please."

Lin Xiao opened the front door, sat in the driver's seat, looked ahead, his side face was tough, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised:

"Fasten your seatbelts, we need to hurry up!"

Qiao Linna suddenly had a trace of regret, put her arm on the car door, and said in a low voice: "It's really not because, do you want to go racing..."

Lin Xiao didn't answer. He held the palm of the steering wheel and put his fingers on it one by one.

The "vehicle control" ability is not a simple driving ability, but more like a kind of "assimilation", making the vehicle a part of itself.

Therefore, even if it is a vehicle card without driving authority, under the effect of this ability, Lin Xiao can also obtain driving authority.

The dashboard lights up blue, and the turbo engine roars, but the interior of the car does not feel the slightest roar or vibration.Suddenly, the Aston Martin catapults away.

Qiao Linna's red pupils widened, and she really felt the "back push" that the vehicle card reviewers praised, but it only lasted for a moment, and the sports car began to accelerate linearly at a reassuring uniform speed.

Hovering in Jolena's mind, there was only one question mark left.

I clearly didn't give him the key, nor did I have a voiceprint to unlock it... How did he start the car?

Glancing at Lin Xiao who was engrossed, she didn't ask any further questions, thinking, his driving skills are really good...

While thinking, the luxury sports car suddenly accelerated and rushed onto the viaduct.The sky in Xihai City is becoming more and more gloomy, and the lead-colored clouds are constantly encroaching on the surroundings, as if a huge iron curtain is shrouded in the sky over Xihai City.The water vapor was dense, and the light rain splashed down and splashed on the windshield window.

"It's raining." Jolena frowned slightly.

Xihai City is a coastal port city. Once the water level rises, monsters such as deep divers will often invade the city.

The current Xihai City has just experienced the siege of S-level monsters, and is under the shadow of the "monster of the sea", and people's hearts are in turmoil.

Raining at this juncture is not good news...

Lin Xiao turned down the wiper, and the two wipers slowly wiped off the bean-sized rain marks. The repeated process was very quiet, unlike Chu Yun's black car, the wiper would make a tooth-acid creaking sound.

"Looks like it's going to be a storm."

Lin Xiao was a little worried about meeting Zhenjun later. This is not a good weather for going out, especially when the motorcycle does not have the function of sheltering from the rain.

But summer showers are very common, and the rain may naturally stop in the afternoon. It is more important to meet Brother Chu Yun now.

"We're arriving at our destination soon." Driving off the viaduct, Lin Xiao glanced out of the car window, "Stop at the commercial plaza, let's go to a nearby coffee shop."

"Ah."

When the vehicle came to a complete stop, Jolena took off her seat belt, got out of the car door, took a deep breath of air, and looked up at the gray cloud-shrouded sky.

She remembers this air.It rains all year round in the foggy city, and the air smells of rust and the depression of a big factory.

But something is different.This depression comes from the air flow on the sea surface, and the cyclone hundreds of kilometers away becomes a hurricane, vibrating the air and transmitting this anxiety all the way here.

"The typhoon is coming..."

Jolena said softly, "Here in the Golden State, call it a hurricane."

A black umbrella was seen in her eyes, Qiao Linna turned her head and saw a man holding a black umbrella standing side by side with her.

"Every typhoon day, I will hide in the house, close the windows tightly, and listen to the strong wind vibrating the windows. The stronger the vibration, the calmer my heart is... I have a sense of security that I have been abandoned by the world and there is only one house left." Lin Xiao said slowly.

"sense of security?"

"Well, the stronger the typhoon is, the stronger my sense of security...as if I'm out of it." Lin Xiao looked up at the sky, "But now it seems that we have to break into the typhoon."

Qiao Linna lowered her head and sighed: "Is this what you call 'special training'?"

Lin Xiaogang wanted to say that if you find it difficult, you can suspend the special training and start it after the heavy rain.

His eyes were attracted by the figure walking in the heavy rain.

He was dressed abruptly, only 1.5 meters tall, wearing a gray and white hood, with his hands in the gray and white trouser pockets, but he was carrying a giant blade that was about the same length as others.

The blade is wide, the blade is sharp, and it is swung in a circle, as if it can cut a tall horse in half.

But with the boy's height of 1.5 meters, it is hard to imagine him wielding this saber.

The young man's eyes were indifferent, he was wearing a hood, and he passed Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao turned his head and looked back, remembering that it was the direction of the beach of the West Sea, and it was also the place where he had agreed to meet Jinlong Zhenjun.

"Hey, kid!" Lin Xiao yelled, "The rainstorm is coming, and the seaside is very dangerous!"

Qiao Linna was a little startled, and glanced at Lin Xiao.

Although he is small in stature, carrying such a big knife on his back is probably to warn others.

It is not too much to call someone a kid when you open your mouth.

Sure enough, the young man stopped and turned to look at Lin Xiao, revealing a pair of indifferent and blunt eyes.

"Don't bother."

After finishing speaking, the boy continued to walk, Lin Xiao was even more sure that he was going to the beach, and continued to stop him.

"What are you doing at the beach—a ride?"

There was no response, and the figure of the hooded boy was like a cub living alone, with the flames of hatred burning in his eyes.

Go to the sea...and meet Theseus.

then.

Alger clenched his palms tightly, and the scene of his father waving the saber and sinking into the sea with Theseus appeared in front of his eyes. He clenched his teeth hard, as if he was about to gnaw his teeth.

Revenge with my own hands.

……

Branch-shaped lightning flashed in the clouds, thunder exploded loudly, and the rain became more and more violent, as if the reservoir was opened, and thousands of tons of rainwater fell down.

It was completely dark, the commercial street was empty, the rain curtain on the glass window was tight, and in the coffee shop, the three looked out the window worriedly.

"Before I came here, I never expected that it would rain so heavily," Lin Xiao said.

"The Bureau of Meteorology has issued a notice that it is a super typhoon above level [-]." Jolina said.

The thunder made the bone china cup and saucer rattle. Chu Yun frowned and said in a low voice:
"I'm worried that it's not a typhoon caused by a tropical cyclone... but caused by monster activities..."

Jolena's red pupils flickered slightly: "You mean, the monster of the sea, Theseus?"

Chu Yun shook his head.

"I don't know...but, Lin Xiao." He looked over.

"what happened?"

"The team leader instructed that you will be in charge of our team's work in the Golden State." There was a trace of fatigue in Chu Yun's voice, "No matter what, ensuring your own safety is the most important thing."

Lin Xiao nodded: "Understood—think optimistically, maybe it's just an ordinary typhoon?"

crackle!

The thick lightning fell straight on the open space in front of the coffee house, and the indoor lights were temporarily blinded, and then turned on again. The three of them looked at the open space, only to see the bricks and stones shatter and burst into pieces.

Qiao Linna and Chu Yun looked at Lin Xiao silently.

"Well...it's really not ordinary at all." Lin Xiao scratched his head.

"Do you still want to meet netizens?" Qiao Linna looked over.

"Seeing netizens?" Chu Yun said in surprise, "At this time?"

Lin Xiao coughed lightly: "I'm still thinking about it..."

Looking down at the phone, the chat interface freezes on the last message he sent.

The content is roughly that due to the bad weather, we are considering reuniting on another day.

The message was sent an hour ago, and Zhenjun still hasn't replied... Lin Xiao is a little uncertain.

This kind of torrential rain is nothing to a seventh-rank national scholar, and Zhenjun's itinerary cannot be easily changed...

If Zhenjun did not reply until the end, Lin Xiao still decided to rush to meet him in the rain.

"Hey, you haven't explained what's going on with netizens." Chu Yun said.

"He is a senior who has helped me a lot." Lin Xiao said, "So, if he doesn't take the initiative to reschedule, I still need to meet him."

"Okay..." Chu Yun nodded: "Be careful."

If you can't go out even in a rainstorm, it's better to stay in the coffee shop and wait for Lin Xiao to come back.

After another half an hour, Lin Xiao glanced at the mobile phone that had no news, and stood up: "I have to go...Try to come back as early as possible."

"Can I lend you the vehicle card?" Jolena asked.

"No, I'll go by motorcycle, it's faster."

The torrential rain engulfed the entire city. In the torrential rain, Lin Xiao put on a motorcycle helmet and protective clothing appeared on the outside of his body. He drove a heavy locomotive and nodded to the two inside the glass window.

The locomotive roared like a ferocious steel beast, the wheels splashed water, the body split the rain curtain, and galloped towards the west of the city.

[Interruption of emergency alerts and traffic information. 】

Jolena looked away thoughtfully, looking up at the hanging TV in the coffee shop.

[Affected by the sudden heavy rain, the port, elevated roads, and various scenic spots in Xihai City are closed urgently. Citizens are requested to take protective measures in time and avoid going out...]

This is a broadcast for ordinary citizens, and at the same time, the Card Masters Association also issued an emergency broadcast for Card Masters.

"A large number of monsters have appeared along the coast of Xihai City! The group of deep divers is marching towards the city. Please spare no effort to wipe out the group of monsters that broke into the city!"

The coast of Xihai City has become a purgatory on earth. The violent wind and rain swept the coast, buildings collapsed, and the crowd screamed.

The dense crowd of fish climbed out of the sea, and under the leadership of the deep diver, they continued to break through the blockade of the investigation team.

"District 3 requests support!!"

"The leader of the deep divers appeared in the 7th area-help, it is an A-level deep diver!"

"I can't stand it anymore, the battle line is shrinking towards the city, this is a monster siege!!"

The heavy rain splashed Jinlong Zhenjun's glasses.Looking at the tragic scene, he trembled all over, breathed rapidly, his eyes were red, and oracle bone inscriptions flashed in front of his eyes, and there was an indescribable indignation in his chest.

Should I do something?
But there was nothing he could do, and he could only watch as the group of deep divers broke into Xihai City!

boom! !

The sky exploded with thunder.

Big waves are churning on the sea, the sky is as black as ink, branch-shaped lightning dances wildly like silver snakes, reflecting the vastly high tide.

In the big waves, three huge heads of sea snakes appeared, neighing towards the sky, and pale thunder and lightning illuminated the pale faces of everyone.

Monster of the sea, Theseus! !
