Returning from the abyss

Chapter 280 Ambush
To Majin, Sugiyama's defense was just something that could be easily torn apart, but the moment of delay was enough for Fujii and Karl to free up their hands.

Behind the shattered earth wall, arrows were coming straight towards the door. Zhong Feiying twisted his head to avoid Fujii Xueyin's head-on arrow. At this moment, he knew that he had to kill the two people in front of him, otherwise he would be killed under the direction of the two of them. Under the countermeasures, the human tourists who surrounded and suppressed themselves will slowly strangle themselves.

His spirit has been highly concentrated, and his nerve response has reached four times that of ordinary people. The speed of the arrow is enough to dodge. The only thing he needs to pay attention to is Karl's close-range shooting.

However, when he paid a little attention to Carl's movements, he was surprised to find that the cowboy had put away his pistol, took out an old-fashioned flagon from his arms, and stretched out his hand to pop open the lid.

"My ability is time jumping." Carl said lazily, and when he finished speaking, he had appeared five meters away, behind Zhong Feiying.

The sharp pain in the chest also came at this time, Zhong Feiying's mind didn't realize what happened in this instant, he only knew that his movements were deformed, and Fujii Xueyin swung the combined bow with the bowstring with his left hand He pulled his hands aside, and flung out a delicate crescent arc blade from the sleeve of his right hand.

He never had a chance to think about how he was killed in the blink of an eye. The kappa-shaped head flew high, with half of its shoulder and arm turning into a strangely shaped flying object in the air. Different, this flight lasted only two seconds before being pulled back to the ground by gravity.

"This knife is really sharp." Carl raised his thumb and praised.

"Your marksmanship is also very good." Fujii turned the larger part of Zhong Feiying's body over, facing up, and he could clearly see six bullet holes around his heart.

"But this guy is indeed a terrible opponent. I might really die if I deal with him alone." Carl took a sip of his wine, feeling grateful that he survived the disaster, "After only two moves, he guessed my time jump He can only let himself jump for two or three seconds, he has definitely fought more than one time system enemy."

"Qu Siyuan, Pan Haishu, thank you for your support. Sugiyama, Inawara, Lichuan, Miss Ye, thank you for your support."

Fujii greeted the forest. In order to kill this demon who had left the crowd from the beginning, everyone worked together for a long time. Although there are still many plans that are useless, it is a good thing that it is useless... It means that nothing special happened bad situation.

"I didn't expect the third child to be a devil."

Qu Siyuan and Pan Haishu came out of the woods, and they tracked them in the forest for several days, they looked a bit embarrassed, but they were in good spirits.

"I told you."

"That's why we have to find the evidence ourselves, but we don't have the ability to solve it alone..." Qu Siyuan squatted down, looked at Zhong Feiying's head, and sighed, "I can't even tell it's him."

"The demons should be unrecognizable when they look like this. This will make it easier for them to hide their identities and kill people. At least we are sure that one of the demons has died, right?" Pan Haishu said optimistically.

"Although there may be two...but I can't produce any evidence." Fujii sighed, "Don't be too lax, there are obviously several people with different styles in Mojinfang, Zhong Feiying who only dares to hide It is actually easier to deal with those who attack alone in the dark, and those who dare to create opportunities in the crowd to kill are difficult to deal with."

"The Fog Demon should be the one to guard against the most." Carl nodded. "There is also a demon who has never done anything other than kill Sally. There is also a demon who has never done anything."

"you mean……"

"I roughly analyzed the behavior patterns of demons in the turmoil these days, and combined with the one-hour demonization time limit I guessed at the beginning, I can basically tell which demons did those incidents." Fujii said, "But There's a demon who's barely used a hand, and the only thing he's capable of doing is shooting the glass of the restaurant on the second night, when—"

When the word "time" was mentioned, Fujii Yukine's voice suddenly paused, her body twitched slightly, then she lowered her head and looked at her chest.

The white shirt had already begun to smear blood red, which was particularly glaring in the bleak moonlight.

"Snipe!!"

Karl threw Fujii Xueyin down, Qu Siyuan and Pan Haishu also hurriedly hid behind the tree, the howling of the ghost wolf came from the forest, and the figure of Shanshan shuttled through the forest.

No one heard the gunshots, and no one saw the line of fire. Carl finally dragged Fujii Yukine behind a tree, and then quickly checked her wounds. Perhaps it was Fujii's fighting instinct that kept her from letting down her vigilance, and the bullet missed. A little, just grazed near the heart and broke a rib.

"Devil...hunting..."

Fujii Yukine's consciousness slowly recovered a little bit, she grabbed Carl's hand and said with difficulty.

"Yes, we are also being tracked." Carl took out a bandage and a knife and began to try to take out the bullet, "Hold up and don't talk, and be careful to bite your tongue."

"Let...they...retreat..."

"Do not talk!"

At the same time, the remaining people in the forest also began to move.At first everyone thought that it was just a chance to find another demon, but soon it was found that it was impossible.

Unlike Zhong Feiying, who needs to maintain medium and short-range combat, this demon who attacked Fujii Yukine is a type of ultra-long-range combat.

When a ghost wolf in Inahara was smashed, she sent out a warning.Dark night, dense forest, sniper attacks seem to be everywhere. This overwhelming disadvantage cannot be compensated by the magic of the human side. The opponent's location may not even be in the woods at all. How can we fight?
After sending out the signal, Inahara immediately started to leave the spot, and the bullets wiped out her Greedy Wolf continuously, but she also used this to judge some safe places, and fled towards there quickly.

When she got out of a bush, she saw Qu Siyuan and Pan Haishu who were also fleeing quickly among the trees, and greeted them.

"Is this a demon attack?" Pan Haishu asked loudly.

"Sure, otherwise who would attack us on a night like this!"

"The devil actually uses guns to attack..." Qu Siyuan gritted his teeth, "Since he has a range advantage, this devil must be weak in close quarters. Maybe we can find out the direction."

"did you find it?"

"The opponent's shooting distance is very far, but the angle is also deflected. It seems that even though the distance advantage is retained, it still abides by the rules of the sniper's shooting and changing positions. I can roughly lock the position of the sniper... We are running to the lakeside hut. coming?"

While talking, Qu Siyuan suddenly raised his finger and called out.

The trees are sparse, and the courtyard wall of the lakeside hut can be vaguely seen ahead. Bypassing that wall, you can reach the main entrance.

"Just go there to avoid it, my ability is suitable for positional warfare." Inahara took the first step to go around the main entrance, Qu Siyuan and Pan Haishu followed closely, but the three of them just ran to the main entrance, but found that there was already someone Stand there, raise your hand and look out.

"Lu Ning?"

Inahara looked at the person at the door in surprise and made a suspicious voice.

"Why are you here?" Lu Ning asked back.

The three looked at each other, the sniping in the forest was silent, and it was normal for Lu Ning to not be able to hear, but it was suspicious to appear here at this time.

"So you are also planning to do the mission while no one notices?" Lu Ning spoke first.

"Task?"

"The task of staying here for eight hours in a row. I heard Fujii say that she has already completed it. Professor Shen also plans to do it quietly tomorrow night. I chose this evening to avoid suspicion... Didn't Ye Chuqing tell you?"

"No."

"There are sniper attacks in the forest!" Pan Haishu was impatient, "Shall we go in and talk?"

"Sniping?" Lu Ning made way for Daoyuan to walk over, and she asked Pan Haishu, "What's the matter with sniping? By the way, I haven't asked why you three are here? Where did you disappear before?" ?”

Inahara walked into the room, and Qu Siyuan quickly pointed to the room: "Doctor, can we go in and talk? This matter is going to be a long story. Anyway, Zhong Feiying is a devil. We just killed him. Now another A demon is attacking us."

"It's a long story? Then you are a policeman?"

When Lu Ning suddenly asked such a sentence, Qu Siyuan froze for a moment, then his body shook violently, and blood spurted out from his chest.

"Wow!" Pan Haishu yelled, and hurriedly went to help Qu Siyuan, but this time he was shot in the heart and there was no way to recover.

"Quick...go...she knows that we are...with...Ye Chuqing...she is a devil..."

Qu Siyuan grabbed Pan Haishu and said intermittently.Pan Haishu was stunned for a moment, and immediately looked at Lu Ning with an angry expression.

"Go...one pair...but..." Qu Siyuan made a small movement in his hand, but this movement could not hide from Lu Ning's eyes. Her finger suddenly popped out and turned into a long knife, cutting Qu Siyuan's body. Cut off the hand at the wrist.

"Inahara! Lu Ning is a devil! Let everyone know! Help me..."

Pan Haishu yelled towards the house, but there was no response.Lu Ning hooked the severed hand back into her hand and opened it. Inside was a key with teeth like an hourglass.

"I don't need to know your secret anymore." She smiled, "Sorry, please leave now."

In Pan Haishu's desperate cry, two fingers turned into long knives and pierced through the hearts of the two, then retracted instantly, and the two bodies fell limply to the ground.Lu Ning hooked their collars and dragged them to the door.

"Inawara can't hear you, and I have to deal with her next."

She walked through the corridor into the backyard, and threw Qu Siyuan and Pan Haishu to the corner.Then he turned back to the main entrance, twisted the lock with the key, opened it again, and walked in.

Inahara, who was surprised by the dilapidated house, hadn't left yet. She turned her head and saw Lu Ning walking in, and immediately asked, "Lu Ning! How did this house become like this?"

"Because this house is what the lake house really looks like."

"You mean it's all an illusion?"

"No, that hut also exists, but it is a hut that belongs to the past, and it keeps repeating in a period of time, so there is actually no need for cleaning."

"Wait a moment……"

"The time in this world has been elongated. Of course it's not the kind of elongation that turns one second into two seconds. It's not easy to explain... Urashima Taro, have you heard of it?"

Of course Inawara had heard of it.

"Well... the Baihu town we are in is Urashima Taro who didn't open the box, similar to this. Although I want to say that this is a two-dimensional time creature acting as a monster, I can't understand the concept of two-dimensional time myself, so I don't It's a shame here."

"Where did you know so much?" Inahara was a little surprised.

"Because I'm a devil who likes to investigate deeply." Lu Ning blinked, and her pupils instantly turned into golden vertical pupils.

Seeing her transformation, Inahara took a step back instantly, opened his hand, and a circle of paper figurines floated around her, protecting himself in the center like a barrier.

"You know it's impossible to defeat me one-on-one." Lu Ning didn't look like a devil except for her pupils. She had a faint smile that was not usually seen on her face, and she even had the illusion that it was a joke.

"Not always."

"If you are so confident, then it should be related to your spells." Lu Ning stepped forward, the floor was creaked, and she looked even more terrifying in the silence. Inahara stepped back with her steps, There was already some fear in the eyes.

"You came out to intercept Zhong Feiying at the scheduled time, which means that you didn't really get out of control because of the information Carl conveyed, or at least part of it was still under control. What was the purpose of making such a killing? If it wasn't because of The solution contained in the message [the human side wants to kill everyone in the town] has another meaning, [the devil and the townspeople are on one side, so the weaker side is the human].”

Inahara's expression was no longer calm, and the paper figurines around her fingers and around her had already revealed light, but that was all.

"In other words, your actions have three purposes - an excuse to leave the town and stay outside for a long time; a warning to all human beings who don't understand this fact; and a strengthening of your own abilities. "

"Hehe Doctor, I really underestimated you."

"To each other, I heard that you don't have a shikigami. In the general explanation of the distribution center, that thing is made by capturing powerful monsters, right? You don't mean to kill the whole town at all. You only need one quantity, the number of deaths. This is your secret—necromancy? Spiritualism?"

"It's Necromancer." Inahara loosened her hand, and all the paper figurines fell to the ground, and then she flicked her fingertips, sparks suddenly appeared.

"Did you find something wrong?"

"The necromantic pose requires the dead to die within at least seven days. It seems that here, death has exceeded time. There is a time gap here. You didn't lie to me." Inahara made a casual move, and Mars circled around him The neck began to turn into a ring of fire, "You sealed my most powerful spell, but I will still resist a little bit, Ms. Demon Man."

As the fire blazed, the two figures behind her gradually became faintly visible, and Lu Ning understood it with a glance.

"Wen has Wenqu, Wu has Wuqu. Your star style comes from the Big Dipper, and it seems that you are not completely powerless."

The sky was full of red lights outside the window, even after passing through the barrier of time, the red star still followed Inahara.
