Breaking Day Hunting

Chapter 72 Grey Lines and Accidents

what is this……

In the suddenly opened special field of vision, Ling Xun "saw" a gray line running along the edge of the wall, extending all the way to the small door at the stairway.

Ling Xun had never seen such a gray line before, and he couldn't help but mutter in his heart, could it be seen with a special vision, could it be related to the nightmare?
drop……

At this time, Gu Hui took out a disc instrument, pressed the button in the middle, and the instrument made a beep.

On the edge of the disc, lights made of obsidian flickered, and circles of light similar to obsidian radiated out, spreading to the entire villa.

After a while, the disc instrument beeped again, and stopped working. The green light in the center lit up, representing safety.

Ling Xun knew that this disc instrument was used to detect the nightmare and the concentration of the fog. If there were any traces of the nightmare or the concentration of the fog exceeded the standard, the yellow light or the more serious red light would be turned on.

"On the day Ms. Tang died, it was indeed detected that the concentration of eclipse fog exceeded the standard, and it has dissipated now."

Taking out a report, Gu Hui flipped through it and spoke in a professional manner.

On the side, Du Qiu took out the recorder, turned on the record button, and started recording professionally.

Ling Xun curled his lips slightly, thinking to himself that he must have checked the inside and outside of the villa more than a dozen times, and there would be no clues at all. Seeing the two of them pretending to be serious, they did a good job of going through the motions .

However, being able to do superficial skills is also a skill. Ling Xun estimated that as long as there are no accidents, Gu Hui and Du Qiu will do well in the law enforcement team in the future.

Going around in the hall, Ling Xun followed behind the two of them. What he kept paying attention to was the small door next to the stairs where the gray line extended into.

"This is the storage room in the lobby. It has been checked before and nothing was found."

The three of them walked to the small door, Gu Hui looked at the report and pushed open the small door.

This action made Ling Xun's body tense slightly, and he was secretly on guard.

Behind the small door, there were some debris piled up, but nothing else was found.

Ling Xun heaved a sigh of relief, and shook his head secretly, laughing at himself for being too suspicious. This place has been searched so many times by the law enforcement team, so there is no problem.

It should be that the black rats on the roof in the morning made the nerves sensitive... Ling Xun muttered to himself.

Walking up the stairs, Ling Xun relaxed and admired the murals on the wall. He has no artistic talent and doesn't know how to appreciate them, but he also knows that these murals are very valuable.

On the second floor, looking at both sides of the corridor, there are as many as eight rooms with doors.

"This place is really big. Doesn't it feel empty to live alone? Damn rich." Ling Xun expressed his feelings.

"Rich people can't get a house here. If you want to live here, you need not only money, but also power, or your own strength is strong enough." Du Qiu said enviously.

"These damn big people, and their love..." Gu Hui cursed in a low voice.

The three of them looked at each other and couldn't help laughing. Such complaints can easily enhance the relationship.

At the end of the corridor on the second floor, there is a dark brown door. After opening it, there is a spacious study room.

Pointing to the indoor balcony outside the broken window of the study, Gu Hui told the two companions that Tang Rufu accidentally fell to his death from here.

"Ten years later, if I can have such a study, my life will be complete..." Du Qiu said softly, stepping on the warm floor.

The floor of the study room is made of a special kind of obsidian from the mines in the northern area of ​​the outer city. In winter, the floor naturally generates heat, similar to the effect of floor heating, and it is an extremely expensive decoration material.

Ling Xun stood at the side with a gloomy expression, but his gaze was fixed on the side of the bookshelf.

After entering the study, the special field of vision was opened again, and he saw the gray line again, extending from the side of the bookshelf to the balcony with the broken window.

Walking to the indoor balcony and observing it carefully, Ling Xun's eyes narrowed. On the edge of the cracked window, he saw a large gray mark, which broke in from the outside.

For a moment, Ling Xun outlined the trajectory of this gray line in his mind. It should climb up from the small door at the entrance of the stairs, along the edge of the wall of the hall, and reach the other side of the bookshelf.

This gray line can only be seen by me... Is it related to Eclipse?Ling Xun instantly became nervous. Tang Rufu's death was most likely caused by Ximai. The law enforcement team didn't find out, or did they investigate and conceal something?

Since he wanted to hide it, why did he ask Gu Hui, a newcomer to the investigation team, to investigate again...

For a moment, various thoughts flashed through Ling Xun's mind, and finally came up with a more reasonable explanation.

The law enforcement team did not investigate any clues, because people's research on all kinds of events related to the nightmare in this world is only superficial.

Ling Xun, who is a member of the Nightmare Research Institute, is very clear about this.

"No matter what the gray line is, whether it is dangerous or not, it is safer to leave here first."

Thinking like this, Ling Xun considered what excuse he should find to trick his two companions into leaving here.

Suddenly, the bookshelf shook at this moment, as if something was about to rush out of it.

Ling Xun's expression suddenly changed, and he said, "Be careful!"

Gu Hui and Du Qiu were taken aback, they reacted very quickly, retreated quickly, each took out their weapons.

"What's the matter with this bookshelf? Why is there any movement? The law enforcement team has searched it long ago..."

Holding the Yaoneng pistol, Gu Hui's face turned pale, and he shouted in panic.

While yelling, Gu Hui raised his hand and pressed the help signal of the Yaoneng watch, requesting support from the nearby law enforcement team.

On the side, Du Qiu also looked flustered. As a student at school, he has never experienced actual combat.

However, the weapons Du Qiu holds are two short blades, one-third longer than the Yaoneng dagger.

Click!

The handles and tails of the two short blades are combined and rotated to form a double-edged weapon, which is suitable for holding with one hand.

"Senior Gu, don't worry, I'm here!"

Du Qiu yelled, after holding this double blade, his confidence increased greatly, and the energy on his body fluctuated violently, showing that he was about to launch an advanced technique of energy.

Ling Xun took two steps sideways, clasped the Yaoneng dagger upside down with his left hand, and slightly exerted force with his right hand, pinching the Yaoneng sand in his palm.

In the special field of vision, what he saw was far from being as simple as a shaking bookshelf. A gray line appeared on the bookshelf, as if something was about to rush out.

boom!
The next moment, a hole was opened in the bookshelf, and the books were shattered. With the paper scraps flying, a damp and cold atmosphere permeated instantly.

A mass of black ash rushed out, and it was a piece of wood that was as black as ink and shaped like a palm.

In mid-air, this wooden palm stretched and contracted continuously, as if being controlled by something in the air, full of weirdness.

bang bang...

Immediately, Gu Hui pulled the trigger, and the Yaoneng pistol fired, hitting the weird wooden block with precision.

Du Qiu also let out a low shout, and danced with the double blades in his hands, bursting out wisps of radiance, cutting out light rays of light from the blades in the air.

Yaoneng bullets, double-edged Yaohui... hit the palm-like pieces of wood one by one, but only slightly stopped their momentum.

Then, the weird wooden block circled in mid-air, then circled and attacked again, at an even faster speed.

Moreover, there is a surge of corrupt and damp breath, absorbing this breath makes one's head a little dizzy.

"Get out of the way!"

Gu Hui's complexion changed drastically, and he looked at Du Qiu who was standing blankly by the side, knowing that the latter was unable to react in time because the latter had run out of Yao Neng advanced skills.

Immediately, Gu Hui rushed over and pushed the junior to the ground, avoiding the attack of this strange block of wood.

At this moment, Ling Xun at the side could see clearly that there were holes on the back of the palm-like block, and there were mouthparts shrinking inside, and there were several second-level nightmares hiding in it, manipulating the strange wood. piece.

What the hell is this thing that can be manipulated by Nightmare to launch such a terrible attack.

Ling Xun's face was serious, but he didn't think much, he took a step forward, raised his left palm, and the Yaoneng dagger pierced out like lightning, drawing out streaks of light.

call……

Although the speed of the Yaoneng dagger is fast, the speed of this strange wooden block is even faster, evading in mid-air in a scalp-numbing way of dodging.

Seeing this scene made Ling Xun's scalp tingle. If it were him yesterday, his first choice now would be to turn around and run, leaving his two companions behind and running for his life.

However, today is different...

As soon as the right palm was lifted, the obsidian energy sand in the palm spilled out, and the right palm quickly became bigger, the skin color deepened, and it hit it with a bang.

boom!
The wooden palm collided firmly with Ling Xun's right hand, and after a muffled sound, the black-like pieces of wood shattered.

To die..., Ling Xun slightly clenched his palm, using the strength of his binding hand.

On the ground, Gu Hui and Du Qiu were stacked together, their eyes widened, watching the scene that shocked them.

In the field of vision of the two of them, Ling Xun seemed to stretch out his hand to pat this eerie and terrifying piece of wood into pieces.

Zizi..., Ling Xun's right hand has returned to its original state, and wisps of black smoke floated up, turning into nothingness in the Yao energy.

"The strengthening of the qualitative transformation of the hands is beyond imagination! The hardness of the wooden block is comparable to the strength of the mutated part after the second-level nightmare corrodes the creature."

Ling Xun was surprised and delighted, but also a little lucky. Fortunately, the first body orb was completely lit up last night, and his hands underwent a qualitative change.

Otherwise, it is impossible for him to be unscathed by this blow alone, and he may be corroded by the second-level nightmare.

After this collision, Ling Xun was pleasantly surprised that if he really encountered a second-level nightmare, with his binding hands and qualitatively changed hands, he would have enough confidence to fight against it.

In the special field of view, several lines of familiar smoke rose up and entered Ling Xun's body. With a burning pain in his back, he saw the second pearl on the upper right side of the "cross handle" lit up, flashing a ray of brilliance.

Sure enough..., lighting up the second pearl requires a second-level eclipse..., Ling Xun breathed out, and finally let go of some anxious guesses before.

Originally, he made a very bad assumption, maybe lighting up the second pearl would require the energy of a third-level nightmare after death.

Now it seems that this is not the case...

However, after absorbing the energy after the death of six second-level nightmares, the degree to which the second acquaintance bead lights up is roughly equivalent to the degree to which the first body orb absorbs a second-level nightmare.

That is to say, the eclipse energy needed to light up the knowledge beads and body beads increases sequentially.

To light up the second bead, it takes about..., 150~170 heads and second-level eclipses!
This number flashed through his mind, and Ling Xun couldn't help but get a headache, and once again he slandered that it was really worrying, wouldn't he be afraid that he, the master, would die...

When he was thinking about it, Ling Xun's face moved, he felt a change in his body, not only the signs of second consciousness comprehension appeared again.

Moreover, unpredictable changes have taken place in a certain part of the body.

"When the second pearl of knowledge is lit, there will be such a change..."

Ling Xun's eyes widened slightly, and a surge of joy welled up in his heart.
