"The skills of those guys are like mercenaries!"
Mao You, who was not good at frontal combat and was always ready beside him, watched them pass two moves and immediately turned to Lu Ning and said.
"Mercenary?"
"A group of guys who put money on their faces." Speaking of this word, even Mao You, who was originally a thief, had a bit of disdain on his face. "As long as you give them money, they will accept any job, but the stinky problems all over their bodies also make it difficult for them to do anything." They can't save any money at all. This group of scum can be seen on the city walls, streets and alleys. However, those who can survive are pretty good at it, but their wild background is easy to spot."
Gorius, Qiao and Pinna were all used to fighting. The addition of the three immediately reduced the pressure on Fu Junnian. Several mercenaries in gray coats had already started fighting and then retreated.
"They want to escape!" Maoyou shouted.
"You want to run!!!" Fu Junnian shouted loudly, and a big knife whirred in his hand. Lu Ning saw that he was getting angry and suddenly felt something bad.
The most important thing to avoid in a battle is impatience. Fu Junnian seems to be a fighter all the time. Lu Ning can't tell whether this is true or not, but if it is true...
She caught a glimpse of one of the gray coats turning his arms secretly, and a cold light flashed in his sleeves.
"Sleeve arrows!"
The reminder and the Xiujian shot at the same time. Fu Junnian twisted his body to avoid the attack of the Xiujian. However, the sword that was struck also lost a lot of strength and was held up by the gray coat next to him. Immediately afterwards, another shot of cold light shot out, but instead of attacking Fu Junnian, it pierced the abdomen of the boy next to him!
"Ahhh!" The young man screamed, but Fu Junnian became even more angry.
"Coward! Coward! What else do you have besides those tricks? I will let you all die here today!"
However, a man in gray coat provoked a sneer.
"We are good at everything...assassinations, closures, searching for people, stealing items...We don't know how many brainless idiots like you have been brought down."
Fu Junnian took one step forward and was about to charge forward with his sword, but his figure suddenly tilted.
"oh!"
The burly body fell directly to the ground. At the same time, the four gray coats didn't even communicate at all. They all raised their weapons and stabbed Fu Junnian who suddenly fell to the ground!
"Let's see who dares!"
Gorius and others immediately rushed to cover, but at the same time as they started, two more people screamed in pain and fell to their knees among the fallen leaves.
"Do you think there is an advantage in having more people?"
After all, it was because of the rescue that Gray Coat failed to assassinate Fu Junnian, but at that moment three more fell down. Before they could get up, Gray Coat brandished his weapon and attacked!
"Do you think being clever will give you an advantage?"
Lu Ning's voice suddenly sounded from the side. At the same time, she kicked up the fallen leaves on the ground. The large flying leaves immediately blocked the sight of a man in gray coat. He quickly raised a hand to cover his face, but through the gap between his fingers and the leaves, He saw a dark thing the size of a tennis ball flying towards him.
"—Spider Watch, huh?"
The small metal robot grazed his hand and hit his chin, causing his skin to be torn apart immediately. Lu Ning had already clenched the dagger and quickly approached, stabbing him in before he could react from the sudden pain. his heart.
"damn it!"
The three next to them had to deal with five people. They couldn't take action for a moment, but they didn't expect that their companions would be killed in just a few seconds.
Lu Ning pulled out the knife and avoided the gray coat. The sound of blood spurting out behind her gave her a long-lost feeling of blood boiling.
The instrument on his arm bounced off, and Lu Ning chose to inherit the prop from the inheritance page as quickly as possible, and then saw two control images of Spider Sentry appearing in the prop column.
They are hidden among the fallen leaves. Due to the thickness of fallen leaves accumulated in the Autumn Garden, they cannot be seen by normal passersby. Nowadays, these small spider robots are equipped with sleeve arrow launching devices using crude mechanical means. This is the truth about why the three of them suddenly lost their balance just now.
"Pay me with your life!"
A gray coat suddenly broke away from the battle circle, and the two beside him immediately stepped in to help stop the five people, causing the gray coat to rush towards Lu Ning!
"You guys have a really good relationship." Lu Ning sneered and immediately ran to the side. The gray coat walked faster and quickly closed the distance between the two parties. Just when the two of them passed under a big tree, they suddenly A foot suddenly poked out from under the tree root.
"Oh!"
Mao You's stumble was just right, causing Gray Coat to lose his balance immediately. Of course he knew what it meant to lose his balance at this moment. He hurriedly swung his arms and staggered two steps to try to regain his balance. This almost succeeded - except that the empty door in his chest opened because of his hands to maintain balance.
Lu Ning threw out the dagger in his hand and accurately nailed it into the gray coat's throat.
"I have this kind of accuracy now..." She murmured in a low voice, turned on the instrument, and a new inheritance option appeared, indicating that the other party was dead.
Two people were reduced in an instant, and the remaining two gray coats could no longer support themselves. Fu Junnian actually got up on one foot and jumped forward. His bravery was indeed amazing. Under such an angry offensive, One of the men in gray coat had his head chopped off with a machete, while the other man was knocked down by Aunt Pingna with a stick on the back of his head. Then everyone swarmed up and pinned him to the ground.
Lu Ning circled around and found all the spider sentries, eight in total. She checked the description. After inheriting this prop, she could also learn the detailed information of the prop.
[Spider Sentry: Price is one star, you will get two after purchase.
Deployable, small tennis ball-sized robots with surveillance and listening capabilities that can be controlled using their own hands. Robots have the ability to move slowly and can also be used to carry objects that are not heavy in mass. Each robot's battery provides one hour of operation and cannot be recycled after deployment. 】
People over there were using the belts of the three dead people to tie up the one who was captured alive. Maoyou took out the repair spray and treated the injured people. He was not the only one who had this spray, so it was not a big problem.
"Huh... Lu, thank you very much." After Fu Junnian healed the injury on his leg, he raised his hand to Lu Ning.
"It's nothing, these guys are quite tricky."
"Humph, if they hadn't laid an ambush in advance..."
"You have to understand that it's normal to be ambushed. Why would these guys conflict with you head-on?"
"You're right." Fu Junnian spat at the corpse on the ground, "I almost lost it in the hands of these bastards."
Lu Ning turned over the body of the one he assassinated. They had a lot of small weapons with them. In addition to sleeve arrows, there were also darts, caltrops and steel balls. Fortunately, they had to fight here and they didn't scatter the caltrops. Otherwise, A few more injuries here.
"It's not poisonous." Mao You observed the wound of another person injured by the spider sleeve arrow, "If these guys are poisonous, they will definitely be poisoned. It seems that they haven't been found."
"A bunch of rubbish." Qiao kicked the guy who had given up struggling, "What's the use of keeping him alive?"
"Turn on his instrument." Lu Ning walked over.
Immediately, Gorius took his arm and turned on the instrument. Lu Ning knelt down and clicked twice, and found that he could only stop at the main interface and could not enter the store. However, he could see the number of stars - zero.
"Poor and useless."
She checked the deceased's instruments and found that the screen was completely black and could not be opened. It seemed that these instruments also had certain authentication functions. However, this did not trouble Lu Ning.
"Ahhhhh!"
Everyone watched as Lu Ning picked up the man's short knife and chopped off his arm. Since he couldn't find anything to gag him, the man's screams could probably be heard in the entire courtyard.
"You can't use it even if you cut it off...then——"
Lu Ning took the arm to his other hand, grabbed the struggling arm and poked the screen, finally opening the toolbar.
"There's always a way."
"I'm going to kill you! I'm going to kill you!!"
Hui Coat yelled and cursed, but Lu Ning didn't care much about it. She glanced at the item list. In addition to Spider Sentry, there was also a heat source amplifier. She probably completed some one-star mission.
But it's hers now.
Lu Ning pierced his heart from behind with a knife, giving no one time to react. Then she reached into the man's pocket and dug twice, took out the ninth spider sentry, and stabbed it with a knife.
"Hey! Lu! Don't we need to keep someone alive for questioning?" Fu Junnian asked loudly.
"What's there to interrogate? They leave me as much information alive as dead." Lu Ning wiped the dagger clean on his gray coat, "You choose to inherit and see how many spider sentries you get?"
Fu Junnian did as he was told, and then said: "Two sentries and a spray."
"There are a total of eight sentry posts between these four people. The extra one can only be because someone else is monitoring this place remotely. We found it a little late, but it doesn't matter. From the time we killed the first one of them, we have been monitoring each other. It’s already a fight to the death.” Lu Ning stood up and looked at the instructions for the heat source amplifier.
[Heat source amplifier: priced at one star.
An eye-worn infrared vision goggle that identifies heat sources within the visual field with superb resolution, even through walls. Imaging can be performed within a distance of ten meters, and any target with thermal reaction cannot escape this detection method. The battery can be used for ninety minutes. Only one item of this item can exist in the prop inventory at the same time and can be recycled to the prop warehouse. 】
"Do they still have anyone?"
"Judging from the ninth post, yes. And our appearance and voice are probably already known."
"Isn't that bad?" someone from Fu Junnian's group shouted.
"Don't you think that by following Lewanska you can leave safely without fighting at all?" Lu Ning shrugged. She didn't care about the opinions of these people. The only one who needed to focus on was Fu Junnian.
"Lu is right, these bastards want our lives. If it weren't for our luck, several of us would be dead by now."
Fu Junnian stared at the corpses fiercely.
"Come on, I want to see what other tricks these turtles can do!"
"What happened?"
Lewanska's voice came from the other side of the glass door. He had already rushed back with his few people, but as soon as he entered the door, he saw the mess.
"Mercenaries were attacked by surprise." Fu Junnian simply concluded.
"Mercenary? Are you injured or..."
"Lu arrived in time and suffered some minor injuries. He can be cured."
Lewanska breathed a sigh of relief and said nothing about the deaths of the four people.
"Since everyone is fine, let's go back to the supply point now. Shan Lianmei and the others will probably be back soon. We don't have much time, so we need to think about what to do next."
Everyone left the body behind and walked into the supply point. Before Lu Ning entered, she glanced at the fallen leaves on the ground at the door. There were some traces of footprints, which were different from when she left before. Someone probably came to this supply point after that.
After returning to the house, everyone found a place to sit down. After waiting for about two minutes, Shan Lianmei and the five of them also walked into the conference room.
"What's going on with the bodies outside?"
"There was a fight, and there may be more fights in the future," Fu Junnian said.
"Those are a group of troublesome guys." Shan raised his eyebrows, "Are they here to cause trouble?"
"That's right."
At this time, Lewanska clapped her hands: "We can talk about that group of people later. Now let's sum up the current situation. Where have you been?"
"We went to the courtyard of Summer Garden. It was basically a jungle and it was very inconvenient to move around." Lu Ning said.
"We went to the Spring Garden, and the situation was similar. Although there were not many trees, the grass was as high as the knees, and all kinds of flowers were in bloom, as well as bugs." Fu Junnian said, "We found several mission machines, but they were all blocked. People take it, people here move really fast.”
"Although it looks like there are many machines, there are actually not many in number. After all, a person can receive one mission for each star level. If more than a hundred people pass by and receive one, the missions will be divided up very quickly." Shan frowned. She explained, and then talked about her team's itinerary: "We visited two outer corridors, the one in autumn, and the one in spring. Generally speaking, the corridors have a similar layout, with small rooms of different shapes scattered along the corridor. Although the furnishings in the room are slightly different, they are generally similar. We did not search for the existence of secret doors because we did not have enough time. As for the mission machines, we saw a lot of them, but most of them were taken away."
"What's the situation in Summer Garden?" Lewanska asked Lu Ning.
"There are many differences in the furnishings in the courtyard, but there are also some similarities. For example, the large room of the child and mother room also has a correspondingly sized house in the courtyard over there. In addition, we also found information about weather unlocking there. clue."
Lewanska nodded, and seeing his reaction, Lu Ning understood.
"Did you find it too?"
"We went to the courtyard on the other side, searched carefully, and found a secret room in a large room that looked a lot like a warehouse. Inside were the instructions for unlocking the weather."
"What is weather unlocking?" Shan frowned and asked.
Lewanska gave her a brief explanation, which was generally consistent with the content of the text that Lu Ning saw.
