End of Mystery

Chapter 257 Red Eyes and the Scavengers (8,000 words)

Looking at the wine glass that Xiao Xiao raised to himself with a smile, Mr. An was actually in a bit of a complicated mood.

It stands to reason that I should be happy. As a person who has been the president of Anxi City for nearly forty years, I didn't believe that the young president of Heimen City could have any real abilities. It was nothing more than sensationalism. And everything I see now seems to verify my own opinion. From the perspective of these knights, Black Gate City is simply a mess. The knights have no respect, loyalty, or trust for the president, only fear and vigilance. How could such an organization survive in this chaotic and crazy world?

But on the contrary, he faintly felt that something was wrong, and some bad premonition vaguely appeared in his heart.

Although the knights in Black Gate City obviously didn't have enough respect and loyalty for their guild leader, they all showed a bit tough attitude.

But now, it is clear that the overall situation has not been settled, Xiao Xiao's laziness and anticipation also make him uneasy.

It's like, when I was in the society, I captured a person's wife, threatened him to find someone else to take care of his wife if he didn't sign a contract, and even directly launched a video saying, watch it, and it will start right away.

Instead of worrying, the threatened guy asked with an expectant look: Can the video be clearer?

...maybe not quite right, but that's what it is.

Mr. An knows that many plans may have small accidents, and he has always had enough patience to deal with all these small accidents. Only this time, he feels uneasy. The reason is...

... There won't be any real problems with the young president of Heimen City, right?

...

...

In contrast, in the city of Anxi, each has their own suspicions in their hearts, but they still maintain a peaceful and uncomfortable friendliness on the surface.

In several other places, bloody storms have erupted suddenly.

Red-eyed Ling Ping was holding a reverse poker card, flipping it with his left hand in the air, and the twelve cards all fell into the air, as if being held by invisible palms.

His red eyes and black poker gave him a kind of monstrous aura.

After letting the cat go, he faced the attack of the ambushing knights in the city of Anxi, and he was surprisingly calm. To a certain extent, he seemed to have a bit of contempt and crushing posture.

"Suicide!"

His composure also made his opponent feel uncomfortable. Someone yelled coldly, and there was a buzzing sound in the air, and then a black shadow drew several afterimages, and flew in front of him in an instant.

A cold dagger tore through the air and wiped his throat heavily.

Faced with this fatal blow, Ling Ping did not dodge it, but tilted his head slightly, and took a poker card in the air into his mouth.

"laugh!"

Although his movement of grabbing the cards was somewhat handsome, it was not as fast as his opponent's wiping his neck. Before the poker was in his mouth, a bright red line of blood had already been drawn on his neck.

The wound was about to open, and blood gushed out.

But it was also at this moment that the red-eyed Ling Ping grabbed the playing card, and at the next moment, a strange force suddenly took effect.

Reversal poker.

B-level special things.

Twelve cards, each of which can achieve some kind of shallow rule distortion.

The moment Ling Ping bit the playing card, the wound on his neck suddenly disappeared, and then, a gash suddenly opened on his back, and the blood instantly soaked his shirt and dark suit .

The wound was transferred to his back.

The same wound, the same length, width, and depth, but it appeared on the throat and back, and the degree of injury was not the same.

Ling Ping endured the pain in his back, and even his movements were as free and handsome as ever. He clasped his right hand behind his back and leaned on the crutch on the ground. A cold light gushed out, and a slender sword blade appeared in his hand. Then step forward and stab straight.

The standard of posture is very aesthetic, the Western sword starts to slash, and the royal rose thorns.

"Well……"

Just now, the man who wiped Ling Ping's neck with a knife, hadn't been immersed in the joy of killing his opponent before he realized that something was wrong.

Before he had time to retreat, he saw a cold light appearing in front of his throat. Ling Ping's swordsmanship was very elegant and beautiful, but it was equally vicious, and it was about to pierce his throat directly.

At this moment, he was terrified in his heart, and a vague cry came out of his throat. He swung the dagger to block the blade, and at the same time, he retreated quickly.

"Shua!"

At the same time, someone flanked Ling Ping's body, trying to force Ling Ping to withdraw his sword to protect himself.

But Ling Ping gritted his teeth, and ignored the pincer attack from both sides of his body, but risked his life, still stabbing with the sword, as if he was desperately trying to die himself, but also to kill the opponent.

"puff……"

As a result, the sides of his body were suddenly bleeding profusely. On the one hand, a large piece of flesh was torn off, and on the other hand, a blood hole was opened where the ribs could be seen. However, despite the serious injury, his sword finally It stabbed at the throat of the person on the opposite side, and was about to pierce him with a sword, but unexpectedly, the person's shadow flickered slightly, and his body turned into a phantom, but the real body moved sideways three times to the upper right. Ten centimeters, with a panic and uneasy expression on his face.

But within this thirty centimeters, Ling Ping's sword fell into the air, and his life also disappeared rapidly.

Before the rest of the knights felt relaxed, Ling Ping, who had only breathed his last breath, suddenly swung his left hand into the air and grabbed another card in his hand.

At the moment when his fingers clenched the poker, the surrounding scene changed and reorganized.

Go back in time for a second and a half.

At this moment, Ling Ping had just shifted the wound, and stabbed forward with his sword. The person in front of him retreated quickly, and there were heavy pincer attacks on both sides.

But this time, Ling Ping didn't force his sword forward, but his body suddenly tilted, and he took a step forward, narrowly dodging the pincer attack from both sides, twisting the rapier in his hand, and suddenly raised it.

"puff……"

The point of the sword pierced through the throat of the rest city knight in an instant, and it looked like he was picked up in the air with a slender western sword.

"How can it be?"

For the people present, they felt in a trance for a while. They didn't know that Ling Ping had stolen a second and a half just now. , the opponent wiped his neck, but Ling Ping didn't seem to be affected at all, and then suddenly raised his sword and stabbed, this sword didn't even have any strengthening elements, it was really just a simple forward strike of the sword, As a result, the Anxi City knight couldn't dodge, and was directly pierced through the throat by this sword...

It's too easy to die.

What kind of talent can kill an opponent in the simplest way?

A person whose strength surpasses his opponent too much!

This unexpected scene has already caused the hearts of all the people present to beat wildly, and even climbed into a vague sense of horror.

The ten rest city knights besieged him, not only did they not subdue him in an instant, but they directly killed one of their own during the first fight?

Just how strong are the knights of Black Gate City?

"Hehe, Anxi City sent people of your level to assassinate me?"

And when everyone was stunned, Ling Ping's blood-red eyes with red eyes became more and more strange, with a cold smile on his face: "Mr. Tao, the deputy captain of the third ship of the three most powerful fleets of the Hell Organization ?"

"He is known as the ghost of the third ship. For those who are enemies of the hell organization, his existence is more terrifying than the captain of the third ship. According to legend, he can be transformed into tens of thousands and appear in various different places at the same time. He can spy on any information, and can assassinate any difficult enemy in an incomprehensible way. Although he is only the deputy captain, it is only because he would rather hide in the dark than run for the captain of the third captain. It's just a seat, his strength can be regarded as the top spear in the hell organization..."

"But it's just such a person!"

"..."

While Ling Ping was speaking in a low voice, his eyes became more and more blood red, as if the surrounding air was dyed red, and many people thought of the person he mentioned and knew that there was such a number one person.

But Ling Ping was sure that they remembered this person, paused slightly, and then smiled gracefully: "He is dead."

"For such a careful person, he only did one thing wrong, and that was to participate in the attack on our Black Gate City under the guidance of a mysterious source."

"I met him, and then, I killed him with one sentence!"

"..."

"What?"

Even in such an urgent environment, Ling Ping's words still made countless people present feel cold.

This red-eyed guy, there's no need to brag about it in such an urgent time, right?

Moreover, many people present could tell whether he was bragging or not, but the faces of the few who could tell had become ugly.

In other words, what he just said is actually true?

Even such a number one person in the hell organization was killed by him casually?

Then these people from our rest city...

Some distracting thoughts and negative emotions are completely out of their control, they can't think about them, and once they start thinking about them, they feel that Ling Ping's eyes are getting more and more strange.

Also feeling nervous and terrified was Mr. Taylor who lured Ling Ping over.

He hid in the shadow under the street lamp, and his mind became more and more flustered. Originally, in his cognition, Ling Ping should be easily dealt with.

After all, he is just a little knight in Black Gate City, not the president himself.

However, Ling Ping did not lose in the fight with the rest of the city knights. In addition, his words made the horror in Mr. Taylor's heart even stronger, and he even turned his head subconsciously, not to look at him. pupil.

However, just when he turned his head, he suddenly saw another pair of eyes.

It was Ling Ping's cat. It had slipped behind him at some point and looked straight at him. Those eyes were also as red as blood.

A strange emotion penetrated into Mr. Taylor's heart in an instant, and he felt that the air around him began to become distorted and blurred, as if there were countless illusory faces smiling at him.

And in such a trance, he suddenly saw that all these illusory faces were overlapping rapidly. When these faces overlapped together, the cat was no longer a cat, but became an elegant, A handsome, young man, he is the president of Black Gate City with an extremely terrifying reputation. With a gentle smile, he walked slowly towards him, and raised the palm holding the red plastic handle dagger from time to time, Sticking out his tongue and licking the blade, at the same time squinting his eyes, his smile became more and more malicious...

"ah……"

He almost cried out in panic, but the sound was blocked in his throat.

Opposite him, the fat orange cat had a puzzled expression, licking its paws while watching the guy in front of him go crazy.

"It's done, there is a chance of winning..."

On the other side, Ling Ping, who was fighting the knights of Anxi City with an indifferent and noble attitude, noticed a faint change, the panic in his heart receded slightly, and the bloodshot eyes in his eyes became thicker.

Reversal poker is the strongest weapon he exchanged, but it is not his ultimate move.

Red eyes are!

[Special Dangerous Item: Ominous Red Eyes]

[Grade: Grade C]

[Ability: Trigger ominous things and stimulate negative emotions deep in the soul]

[Remarks: When she was born, as soon as she opened her eyes, the nurses, doctors, and her parents screamed in fright. Because, she was born with a pair of blood-red eyes, which are strange and frightening. The doctors and nurses were so frightened that they could not hold the scissors, and the mother died on the delivery table because of emotional agitation, weakness and long-term lack of nutritional supplements. My father invited a doctor to see it. The doctor thought it was a kind of retinopathy, which did not affect vision. But no one believed it, they all thought she had a pair of ominous eyes. 】

[This pair of eyes killed her mother when she was born. 】

【From childhood to adulthood, people in the family didn't like her and were afraid of her. The children in the school, the teacher, didn't like her either, because if they were close to her children, they would catch a cold and have a fever. If they were close to her teacher, the male The friend cheated, and the bonus was cancelled]

[She was born with ominous, until one day when she was about to grow up, the teachers and classmates in the school were happily camping by the lake, but she could only stay at the tent]

【No one knows how the heavy rain came. The strong wind and torrential rain swept across the valley, and the mountain torrents swept away all the teachers and classmates by the lake. Only she, huddled in the tent, survived】

【Countless people angrily accused her, cursed her, and wanted to dig out her ominous eyes】

[She was crying bitterly, blaming herself deeply, and she became afraid of this world. She didn't want to stay alone like this all the time, didn't want her classmates and teachers, and didn't even want to take herself with her when she died...]

【Until then, a gentle and refined man with a cane came to her and asked in a low voice, would she give him these eyes? 】

【She agreed, so this man took her to an expensive hospital and invited the best doctors in the world. They performed surgery on her. When the bandage was untied, she looked at herself in the mirror and smiled gratefully , because the eyes have improved. 】

[And when she was happily walking towards a new life, the man on crutches left the hospital silently, his eyes gradually turning red. 】

【…】

Ling Ping even forgot why he decided to help that red-eyed girl when he first met her.

However, fortunately, for some reason, he just helped that girl heal her eyes, but he got such a pair of precious gifts.

The level of these eyes is not high, but they seem to have magical abilities.

It can stimulate negative emotions in people's hearts, whether it is malice, sadness, pain, anger, or fear.

Therefore, he tried to use the power of these eyes from the very beginning, but these eyes are not so magical that just looking at the other party, the other party will be controlled by him and needs to be guided, so he said a lot of words on purpose, Finally, the shadow of fear was planted in these people's hearts, and when I successfully planted this shadow, I gradually gained the ability to control the battlefield.

Of course, I have to thank my president.

His reputation is really...so good, so good that he just teased him a few words, and in the end, Mr. Taylor lost his mind in fright.

"No, no..."

The shadow under the street lamp was already trembling and sweating: "I seem to have made a wrong choice..."

"That monster in Black Gate City will come to find me..."

"I have to make amends, and I have to gain the favor of Black Gate City, so I only have..."

"..."

"..."

"Ling Ping seems to be low-key and honest, but in the end..."

In Anxi City, Xiao Xiao only watched Ling Ping's situation for a while, and then he was not interested. He just thought silently: "You can brag and be sinister again..."

"I didn't realize he was so out of tune before..."

"... By the way, the master in the hell organization was really killed by him?"

"...I know there is such a person, but from the beginning to the end, I didn't see this person appear."

"..."

"..."

The performance of the red-eyed Ling Ping just surprised himself, but Xiao Xiao was really surprised by Lao Zhou's shot at the bottom of the bridge.

Facing the pattering rain all around, Lao Zhou at the bottom of the bridge finished his sentence and put his hand on his black top hat, when he suddenly felt a sharp killing intent coming from his surroundings.

He couldn't see anyone, but he could feel something passing through the rain curtain and attacking him in an instant.

One of the four strengthening routes of Anxi City:

Lost Route!

People who take this route will lose themselves step by step and blend into the surrounding environment, but at the same time losing themselves, it also means that everything around them is themselves.

Almost every one of the Knights of Rest in Rest who made the shot had reached the third stage of strengthening of the lost route.

Their figures disappeared in the light rain, and they couldn't be found or seen, but in the light rain, they were everywhere.

With a thought, the killing intent has already struck in front of him.

But in front of Lao Zhou, there were only scattered raindrops, and he couldn't even see where they were, how many people there were, and the trajectory of their attack...

But Lao Zhou didn't hide at all, he just pushed down his black top hat, and immediately retracted his neck. He was wearing a worn-out black coat, and his whole body was immediately covered. The killing intent floating in the rain, They all hit him firmly, but some hit him on the chest, some hit his back, and some slashed his neck, but they were caught by his black coat. The high stand-up collar was blocked.

Jingle...

These attacks landed on his body, unexpectedly there was no sound of flesh being torn apart, but they seemed to be chopped on a pile of garbage through the bag.

At the same time, as Lao Zhou's body moved, a pile of rubbish fell under his coat, including plastic bottles, cans, unfinished cans, and even half a rotten durian .

None of these things had bullet holes or knife marks on them, as if they were hidden in the coat and blocked the fatal attack for Lao Zhou.

No one can explain how Lao Zhou put these things XZ in the windbreaker, and they don't know how many things he has hidden. What is certain is that it is very reasonable for a scavenger to have these things...

Surrounded by the Knights of Rest City hidden in darkness, the next attack came roaring.

In this case, there are only two ways to deal with Lao Zhou, one is to force him to expose his neck, or to use other vital points.

The other is to attack desperately, not believing that the garbage he hides on his body is endless, and when it runs out, he can be killed with a single shot.

"Boom!"

And while Lao Zhou was using these rubbish to block the fatal attack for himself, he also stepped forward steadily, and the snakeskin bag in his hand was suddenly pocketed in front of him. Not sure if he touched the clothes corners of the lost people in Anxi City, but Lao Zhou looked like he had already caught them. Stumbling on the ground, he clenched his fist and slammed it down toward the bulging bag.

click.

There was actually the sound of bones being smashed in the bag, as if there were screams of people.

But Lao Zhou just gritted his teeth and smashed down with one punch after another. There was a continuous sound of bone shattering and rubbish squeezing, and even blood fell from the snakeskin bag.

"I know your lost route..."

It wasn't until the people in the bag were smashed into meat paste that Lao Zhou slowly raised his head, his chin was splattered with blood, and his eyes under the black top hat looked sharply into the blurred rain curtain:

"Since you are everywhere, why can't you exist in my bag?"

"Hehe, you Anxi City, do you want to force us to give up what we are doing in Heimen City by taking a few of us?"

"Then I can only congratulate you..."

"..."

As he spoke, he got up slowly, holding the garbage bag in one hand, pressing the hat in the other hand, and slowly walked forward from the rain, with a deep and chilling voice:

"It is rumored that the president of our Black Gate City is a collector's route..."

"Hehe, he only has a few special items in total, so he can be called a collector?"

"The real collector is me..."

"..."

When he said these words, the black top hat on his head became more and more distinct, as if it had become the center of the entire city.

[Special Dangerous Item: Scavengers' Black Top Hat]

[Grade: Grade C]

[Ability: Collect and find forgotten abilities and things]

[Remarks: No one can understand his happiness. He is just an old man who picks up trash under the bridge. He lives with trash every day. He has no family, no friends, and no place to live. When others see him, he is always picking up trash. At night, He slept in the rubbish dump under the bridge, but he smiled every day and had happiness that others couldn't feel. Because he has a secret, he has a brand new black top hat, he doesn't know why such a high-end and clean black top hat appeared in the trash, but he picked it up]

【Every night, when he returns to the bridge, he puts this hat on his head, and feels like he has become a rich man and a gentleman in high society】

[He sleeps in his own treasure, picking up everything that others don't want from the trash, as if he is sitting on the whole city, as if living in the gorgeous treasure forever]

【…】

【…】

"So... what route did Lao Zhou take?"

In Anxi City, even Xiao Xiao couldn't help but change his expression slightly when he watched Lao Zhou press his black top hat and carry a snakeskin bag full of garbage, squeezing the wind and rain of the whole city by himself.

He subconsciously looked at Ruanruan next to him, and asked this question.

There are three mature routes in Heimen City, those who are brave, those who see, and those who are hunters, but Xiao Xiao suddenly realized that he didn't seem to know the route taken by Lao Zhou at the bottom of the bridge, and this guy had never made a move in front of him.

Facing this question, Ruan Ruan was obviously stunned: "Are you the president and you ask me?"

Xiao Xiao has a toothache. He hates others to ask himself in this sentence: Does the president have to know everything?

Does the president care about the knights under his command?

...It seems like it should be like this, but I really don't have this habit!

But now, when he saw Lao Zhou's attack at the bottom of the bridge, he couldn't help but feel a little heavy in his heart. He was not at the scene at this time, so he couldn't perceive it deeply, but with his keen observation, he still found the terrifying old Zhou at the bottom of the bridge. Where:

This guy seems to use his ability to pick up waste to walk out of his own ability line...

...Scavenger system?

Just at the moment when Lao Zhou fought against his opponent for a while, Xiao Xiao discovered that he had used four or five different strengthening elements when he got up, each of which was not strong, but on his body, they gathered into a strange And terrifying power.

Not appropriate……

Could it be that the red-eyed Ling Ping and Lao Zhou at the bottom of the bridge deliberately hid their strength from themselves?

Xiao Xiao had this suspicious thought, but soon realized that he was thinking too much, which was not the case.

What is strong is not the red-eyed Ling Ping or the old Zhou at the bottom of the bridge. How many points they have accumulated in private to strengthen them is their essence. They can survive all the way from the old president era, which in itself shows that they have their own essence. ability, and after I took the chair of the president, I did a series of things, gave them an environment to become stronger, and gave them a chance to use the war environment to earn points and develop their own potential. Therefore, the two Personally, I seized this opportunity very well...

Their strength has reached an astonishing level.

"Of course……"

Xiao Xiao couldn't help being a little dissatisfied again: "These two guys can grow up, and they have taken advantage of me to some extent, right?"

"But behind the scenes, are you so unconvinced?"

"Why am I not a collector? I'm not a collector, you just pick up junk?"

"..."

Of course, compared to these two unpleasant words, the performance of the Orochi sisters is much more stable.

Xiao Xiao just took a look, and found that after the three-headed hell dog appeared, the Big Snake sisters kept applauding, and the only thing left was to eat melon seeds.

Nodding helplessly: "I'm sure, these two are still bastards!"

...

...

"I didn't even expect that Heimen City is really full of masters now..."

When Xiao Xiao could only accept all this in amazement, Mr. An’s face on the opposite side was already sinking, and he could also judge the situation. He had to admit that the performance of the four knights in Heimen City far exceeded Anxi City's expectation is that the outcome is not yet decided, but the purpose of threatening Xiao Xiao with this has not been achieved, and even Anxi City has a sense of frustration of a wrong plan. So, with dark eyes, he raised his head to look at Xiao Xiao: "Did Xiao Hui have expected and sent the three of them out?"

"no."

Xiao Xiao turned to look at him, and sighed: "I want to get those three things because I can only find out the whereabouts of these three things now."

"The reason for letting the three parties go is because I always feel that if I try to be a president, I will do everything by myself and let them take advantage of it. I feel a little unbalanced..."

"..."

He looked calm and his voice was sincere, but no one believed him.

Mr. An even sneered at this: Didn't you send these people there on purpose, did you send them to die?

"No wonder it's so hard to convince you..."

He sighed in a low voice, and said to Xiao Xiao: "But the old man is talking to you with sincerity. Now that you have eaten the meal and drank the wine, you must fight and lose both sides before you are willing to make a decision?"

"of course not."

Xiao Xiao shook his head slightly when he heard the words, thinking to himself: "It's Ruan Ruan who ate and drank, I don't have chopsticks..."

Thinking without any trace in his heart, but with a polite smile on his face, he said: "It would be the best if you can ask your subordinates to withdraw."

"Of course, I also have additional conditions."

"I heard from you just now, you seem to know the whereabouts of the remaining four parts?"

"This incident was provoked by you Anxi City, but if you are willing to find the remaining four parts and give them to me, I can let you Anxi City go..."

"..."

"swish"

Hearing Xiao Xiao's words, the little knights beside the big round table suddenly turned their heads and looked over with lightning-like eyes.

President Xiao, already so confident, now thinks that Heimen City has taken the upper hand, and even came to negotiate terms with Anxi City?

But Mr. An did not panic, he just smiled and said, "Why is Mr. Xiao so impatient? If there is no Heimen City, what's the use of these things?"

Xiao Xiao nodded slightly, looked away, and looked at the last picture.

Those are the three great knights of Anxi City. They have already entered the Black Gate City. Unlike the three knights of the Black Gate City who encountered obstacles on their way, these three great knights are simply entering the city. In the land of no one, they walked slowly on the streets of Heimen City. The street lights around them gradually went out, and even the crowds on the road disappeared one by one. , was squeezed by their forward steps, trembling slightly.

No one stopped them.

They entered the city, but no one stopped them, and they were about to reach the center of the city, but no one stopped them.

It seems that in their eyes, Heimen City is simply an empty city.
