Returning from the abyss

Chapter 256 Means
Lu Ning wondered if she should be thankful that she was on the devil's side.

She can feel that those spreading hairs are the changed use of the skill "Majin Armament", but the opponent's body is still unknown.But after knowing all this, it will not bring her a sense of fear. The trouble is that she has to pretend to be an extremely complicated expression of "clearly feeling scared but pretending to be calm because of personality factors".

But since the people around her showed no flaws, she could only try hard.

"Inawara, what happened just now?" Carl asked.

"My Greedy Wolf went up and grabbed the thing, but it braided a strand of hair into a whip and broke both of them in one blow! Sorry, I may not be able to help...Maybe Sugiyama... "

"We don't know when those people will notice the problem here. Even if they don't come here now, there may be trouble there!" Carl pushed Inahara into the crowd, raised the revolver, and moved to the corridor leading to the front yard. The door, slammed the door open.

"What are you going to do! Carl!" Shen Lishu slammed his cane hard, "Go out now, and all the time in front of you will be wasted! Do you understand?"

"Professor Shen..." Carl turned his head and grinned, "I never planned to finish this task tonight."

After he finished speaking, he rolled over and entered the front yard, then raised his gun to the roof and fired all six bullets!

The wailing sounded, and the hair suddenly began to grow violently. A large number of strands of hair pierced into the objects in the room, and quickly cut them into scars. People also hurriedly ran to both ends of the corridor. Those who ran to the direction of the restaurant immediately found that a large amount of hair had already spread half the area of ​​the restaurant along the windows with two large holes!
"Help! Help!" Qiu Yiyun yelled in dismay. Lu Ning had no choice but to sigh, and untied a red-painted incendiary bomb from his belt.

In order to cope with various situations, she took all the weapons she brought in and put them on her body, and it turned out... Anyway, they came in handy.

The flames exploded and ignited along with the hair, which slowed down their spread a little. Lu Ning took the lead and rushed directly to the back door of the restaurant. The rest of the people also chose the former between life and mission.

The power of incendiary bombs in this era is only average, and they are quickly suppressed by the fast-growing hair and extinguished.Lu Ning hurriedly went around the front yard, and found that Carl had already replaced the second round of bullets and continued to shoot the devil on the roof, and that devil was just like what Zhu You said—it looked like a bat.

It has a lot of hair on the top of its head, its head and neck are very thin, but its body is quite fat, with a bunch of bat wings growing out of its back, and now it has begun to flap and rise into the air.The devil's green eyes stared at Karl viciously, and his sharp claws slowly protruded like spears.

But Karl's bullet was enough to hurt it, and it didn't look like an ordinary bullet. When it was fired, it flashed a silver-white flame. The demon was actually avoiding the direct hit of the bullet, and Lu Ning was at this distance. , I also felt extremely unwilling to be hit by that kind of bullet in my heart.

The tourist side can be regarded as a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger.

Therefore, Lu Ning admired this devil who dared to do it directly.After all, from the introduction, the devil has something to fear, and humans can find or use these powers directly. Who knows if the distribution center will arrange some powerful combat members for the human side?Those seemingly beautiful skills are definitely not for the devil to use to fight head-on.

The devil did exactly that.

Several spears were generated from the arms, and then the demon flew up, raised his hand and threw the spears out, those spears exploded in the air, and instantly turned into stabbing rain, covering Karl completely below!
"Danger!"

Shen Lishu yelled loudly from a distance, and at the same time, an extremely swift figure rushed directly into the front yard, tore off his jacket and flew upwards, and at the same time stretched out his hand to grab Carl's arm and rolled quickly to the side.

Lu Ning felt as if she saw a flash of yellow light, and the spear thrown by the demon with four times the force was actually deflected by a coat, and the two of them were not injured at all except for rolling in the dirt.

The devil on the roof was also obviously dumbfounded.

"Thank you ma'am, I owe you my life." Carl turned over and patted the dirt on his body. Ye Chuqing, who rescued him in an emergency, put some tattered coat on her shoulders, and shook her head, "You're welcome, mutual help It should be."

"It ran away!"

Qu Siyuan's roar came from a distance, and the demon was obviously afraid of people's strength, so he immediately flew into the sky, turned around and flew away into the distance.Although many of the tourists seemed to have some skills, none of them could fly.

"Luo Nan, Millie, or Zhong Feiying." Lu Ning narrowed her eyes, "The three of them are not here."

"Yeah..." Fujii Xueyin said something in a low voice, but Lu Ning didn't hear clearly.

Although the demon man was successfully scared off this time, the situation of everyone was not very optimistic. Most people ran out of the house to save people or cover, which means that all the time of the night was wasted.And the few who did not leave the house included Xia Xinhe and his wife, Feng Hui and Peng Morong who moved a little slower, and the three who had not come to support for a long time.

They were only now coming from the depths of the corridor.

"Carl, what's going on?" Robert was the first to walk, holding a silver coin in his hand, frowning slightly, as if he had just solved a problem, and his expression was even more serious when he saw that everyone ran outside Somewhat unhappy.

"The devil." Carl put the gun back on his waist, "Didn't you hear anything?"

"Locked environment." Robert shook the coin in his hand, "It took a while to open the door of the room, and the outside sound could not come in at all."

What was engraved on that coin was a magic circle in the shape of a door, which was not included in Lu Ning's knowledge, but she didn't feel afraid, probably because the coin itself was not lethal.

Robert talked about the situation he encountered there, and Ryo Tachikawa and Rio Sugiyama added some details beside him.Generally speaking, when everyone heard the sound of water on the roof, the three people who were quite vigilant had already woken up, but they immediately found that everything around them had turned green.

Unless you don't use any lighting, everything in the room looks green, and it's even difficult to distinguish the furnishings and even the people inside.Under such conditions, it took a lot of time just to find the correct senses, and then they found that the door was locked.

"It's a very powerful blocking force. I opened the door only after my star silver coins were almost exhausted. After we came out, the vision returned to normal, and then I found that your side was in chaos." Robert put the coin into the chest of his shirt. Pocket, glanced at the others, "So we can only make a compromise plan tonight?"

"Yes." Fujii Xueyin nodded, "The situation you encountered, although I don't know who did it, but it should be some kind of witch's punishment."

green house.

People are imprisoned in a completely green room, provided with green light sources, and the food provided is green or transparent, without any torture, just imprisoned in this way.

In such an extreme environment, people's spirits gradually become tired or even collapsed, and finally they begin to instinctively desire the color that is opposite to the world they see in their eyes-red.

"Although it is just a legend, you should have been cursed similarly. Since you can escape, it means that the curse is not particularly powerful." Fujii Xueyin glanced at the room, "The rest of you should not come out."

"Is this okay?" Feng Hui immediately asked, "If we complete this task alone, won't everyone feel unbalanced?"

"That's not something you should worry about. Anyone who is dissatisfied can stand up and say it now." Carl walked to the door and folded his arms, "We need to verify the necessary conditions for the completion of this task, otherwise today is really a waste of time .Don't worry, the only thorn in the side is the profiteer, and he won't object."

Of course, this person refers to Xia Xinhe.

Many people didn't hide the disdain in their eyes, but Xia Xinhe didn't care, he smiled complacently, and sat down at that time, Duan Qing could only helplessly stand beside him.

Time passed by, and people returned to the house. Although many people were sleepy, no one wanted to sleep anymore. Everyone gathered in the living room and managed to survive until 06:30 in the morning by the light of the oil lamp. .

Except for a few people, everyone walked out the door yawning.

Carl talked to Robert in a low voice, and the others also walked to the parking place. As soon as Lu Ning walked to the side of the RV, she heard Feng Hui's exclamation not far away.

"Master?"

In their off-road vehicle, they found Luo Nan sleeping soundly.Although Lu Ning already knew the inside story of Luo Nan's disappearance, she still had some doubts about whether Luo Nan was a devil or not.

The night's cold wind finally stopped when the sky was dimly lit. Fujii and Karl were asking Luo Nan about the disappearance last night, but the result was naturally that they didn't know anything.Others started their cars and went to the Baisha Lake to wash their faces to refresh themselves.

Lu Ning approached the RV to change clothes, and after counting a few times, there was movement as she expected.

Millie's body was also found.

By the time she got out of the RV, someone had already dragged Millie, who was floating on the lake, to the shore with a fishing rod. The corpse had already started to swell after soaking in the lake for a night, and she could only be identified based on her clothes.Luo Nan was dumbfounded when he saw his sister's body, and Feng Hui and Yu Guiting's expressions were even more complicated.

Fujii Yukine squatted down and opened Millie's mouth, then took out a sharp scalpel from her luggage, and cut open Millie's chest without waiting for anyone to speak.

autopsy.These two words flashed through Lu Ning's mind for a moment, but she didn't expect Fujii to really know it.

"The cause of death...drowning, severe water accumulation in the lungs, the mouth and throat were also soaked in the lake water, but there was no sign of struggle on the body, nor was it restrained, as if he was actively soaking in the lake water waiting to die. "

Fujii Yukine's movements were so neat that it was even suspected that she was not instilled with the knowledge in her mind, but was already very familiar with the work.

but……

[Majin can fake death, so I pretended to be a standard drowned corpse. As for the mystery of how to cause drowning, let’s continue to guess. ] Lu Ning leaned against the door of the RV, looked at Fujii not far away, and already understood in her heart that this was probably one of the biggest obstacles in this scene.

"Stomach digestion... Judging from the state, it took about three hours, and the time of death should also be around this time period. At that time, it should be ten o'clock in the evening. Everyone saw Zhu You at the door before and after returning to the room."

[The disguise of digestion is not ignored. 】Lu Ning nodded slightly, she knew that the other party would not miss these messages.

"That is to say, it was the devil who did it last night?" Yu Guiting asked in a calm voice.

"Do not."

Lu Ning raised her eyebrows.

"One of the questions I've always been concerned about is, why do demons always use a one-hit escape method?"

Fujii Yukine closed Millie's knife edge, took off her gloves, leaned her body slightly, and continued,

"From the very beginning when I was attacked, then the shooting, the thick fog, and the devil on the roof last night, let alone why Zhu You was not attacked, as long as the devil launched an attack, all of them were carried out quickly in a short period of time. Attacking, and giving up as soon as they encounter resistance, this kind of decisiveness makes me think that they may be short of time."

"Lack of time?"

"If you are a little nervous, you can only have one blow for a period of time. Even if you relax a bit, this time will not exceed an hour, which is the length of time that the devil can fully exert itself." Fujii Xueyin pressed her chin slightly, "Otherwise, there is no reason to only act once in a night with so many opportunities. In addition, the demons did not show the teamwork of more than two people. Is there an internal conflict, or are they actually strangers to each other? ..."

"They didn't attack during the day." Carl coughed, telling Fujii Yukine not to continue talking here, "All attacks happened at night, and the day is our time, everyone, come back to town if you have any ideas." , now we have to think about how to deal with it next. Also, how is your mission accomplished?"

The seven people who stayed in the house before all completed the task, and according to Li Chuanliang, they completed the task at six o'clock, which means that the hot spring is also included in the range of the lakeside hut.

"Next time, we will find out whether this hot spring is related to the witch or not."

When the car drove away, Fujii Xueyin still took a look at the hut that was gradually disappearing in the forest.

"Because only the three people who went there at night had problems, right?"

"Although it's possible that other demons cooperated in sealing the three of them, but..." Fujii Xueyin glanced at Lu Ning, but didn't say the rest.

And Lu Ning didn't care, and concentrated on driving the car back to Baihu Town.
