Volume 1: The Gate of Flesh and Blood Chapter 107: Adapt to local conditions!
Clifford sat in the dressing room provided by the TV station, took off his hooded robe, put it into his backpack, and then carefully took off the ring.
Unlike the hooded robe he had sewn himself, these rings were real gemstone rings.
Apart from houses and cars, the only savings he has accumulated over the years are these rings.
In fact, the price of the latter is much higher than that of the former!
As for why?
Of course it is for the convenience of running away.
Colliford knew exactly what he was doing.
If it weren't for giving people a sense of reliability, he wouldn't even buy a house or a car.
Of course, Clifford had thought about renting.
However, as time went by, after several lucky stunts, his reputation soared, and the level of the clients he came into contact with became higher and higher. Some of his clients could not be dealt with by just renting a house or a car.
So, Clifford gritted his teeth and bought a house and a car.
Just like this time.
If he didn't have a high-end house and car to back him up, how could such a good thing happen to him?
"A bunch of fools!"
"It's so easy to be fooled!"
"That guy wouldn't tie up two people for no reason!"
“There will definitely be a follow-up!”
Clifford thought with certainty.
Although he is just a professional liar, in some aspects, Clifford is quite professional.
Or rather, smart!
After putting on a gray hooded sweater and pulling up the wide hood to make sure no one would notice him, Colford walked out of the TV station carrying his bag, but he did not go far away.
Instead, he got into his car and waited quietly.
Time passes by every second.
The sun sets.
The moon rises.
Colliford drank coffee with bloodshot eyes, but as a professional liar, Colliford had considerable professionalism. He had been stalking for several hours without relaxing for a moment.
When he was about to light a cigarette, he suddenly sat up straight.
He saw a figure approaching the TV station quickly.
The other person was riding a bicycle and holding a brown paper bag in his hand.
"It's him!"
The moment he saw the other person, Colliford was sure.
The next moment, when the other party threw the brown paper bag in his hand onto the steps of the TV station and sped away, Culver's guess was confirmed.
Not driving.
Clifford took a folding bicycle from the trunk, assembled it quickly, and followed straight after.
Driving will alarm the other party.
Cycling is the right choice.
Why is there a folding bike in the trunk?
That's professionalism.
And stop the other person?
He wanted to find the kidnapped Gate and Jenny, not to catch the kidnapper.
Keep up with each other.
Confirm the location.
Then……
Call the police!
This is what a professional psychic should do.
And fight the kidnapper?
Don't be ridiculous. He is just a professional liar disguised as a psychic, not a robber. How could he have that kind of ability?
Ride all the way.
The two sides were about 30 meters apart, and Clifford followed carefully.
However, just after turning an alley, the bicycle mysteriously disappeared.
Clifford looked at the street in front of him.
There are no more buildings around , just a straight road, so the cyclist being followed can only be going left or right.
"Left? Right?"
Unsure, Clifford pulled a coin from his pocket.
On the left side of the word.
Flower on the right.
bite!
The coin was tossed and caught by Clifford.
It's a flower.
But Clifford chose the left.
Because his intuition told him that he should choose the left side.
As a professional liar, he trusts his intuition very much.
And the coin toss just now?
That is a necessary quality for a professional con man when playing the role of a 'medium'.
Same as always.
This time, too, Clifford's intuition was correct.
Soon, the professional con man saw the cycling figure again.
Moreover, this time it went quite smoothly.
He followed the other person to the outside of a factory warehouse.
“This is it!”
After watching the other party enter the warehouse, Clifford was very sure.
But to be on the safe side, Clifford approached the warehouse cautiously.
He wasn't going to go in.
He just wanted to find a place to take a look inside the warehouse.
As soon as he confirmed that Gate and Jenny were inside, he immediately called the police.
However, after walking around for a while, Clifford still couldn't find a suitable angle to look inside.
This made the professional con man frown slightly.
The warehouse in front of me was more secure than I had imagined. Except for the gap at the door, I couldn't see what was going on inside clearly from other places .
Hesitated for a moment.
Finally, the professional liar gritted his teeth.
He was ready to take the risk.
After all, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
You know, it’s a TV!
This is also his first time on TV!
If he succeeds this time, he can retire!
Thinking this in his heart, Colliford moved closer to the warehouse door little by little.
Not too much, he just needs to lie down and take a look.
But the closer he got to the warehouse door, the more uneasy Colford felt.
When he was just one step away from seeing the gap, the feeling of uneasiness almost swallowed him up , as if there was some ferocious and terrifying beast hiding in the warehouse.
Clifford followed his heart.
Turn around and run.
Just when Colford ran less than 10 meters, the warehouse behind him exploded.
boom!
With a huge explosion, the door of the warehouse rolled over and smashed on Colford, and the professional liar was knocked to the ground.
Clifford felt as if all the bones in his body were about to break.
However, this did not prevent him from crawling out little by little.
Because the professional con man's intuition told him that the explosion just now was not a real danger.
The real danger is getting closer and closer!
"Um?"
"Not a Winchester?"
Suddenly a voice was heard.
Clifford felt as if a shadow was covering him, and he raised his head with difficulty.
Then he saw a tall, burly guy who looked like a non-human, looking down at him.
There was surprise and impatience in the other person's eyes.
Then, there is the intention to kill.
"Bugs that disrupt my plans!"
“Go to hell!”
As he said this, the bear-like creature raised his foot, ready to stomp Colliford to death.
But at this moment, the other party seemed to have noticed something and rolled to the side suddenly.
Bang!
The dull sound was heard at this time.
And on the ground next to the other party, a deep pit appeared.
"Sniper rifle?!"
It was as if a bear-like creature was roaring.
Another shot was fired in response.
Moreover, this time it was a double gun——
Bang!
Bang!
The first shot was followed by the second.
The first shot was still dodged by the bear-like guy, but the second shot just grazed his shoulder.
puff!
A large piece of flesh and blood was taken away from the other person's body.
roar!
After a roar similar to that of a wild beast, the opponent's body suddenly shrank. It did not shrink beyond the scope of ordinary people's cognition, but became similar to that of an ordinary person.
But compared to the bear-like body just now, it is much smaller.
The injury on his shoulder healed instantly.
Moreover, the speed has also increased.
Just like a leopard.
Bang! Bang!
When the gunshots rang out again, the other party dodged both times.
The other person's eyes hidden under the hood were flickering.
"I found you!"
The next moment, the opponent used his hands and feet to pounce on the snipers hidden in the distance: An and Xiusta.
"What kind of monster is this guy?"
"How did you dodge the bullet?"
Xiusta, whose shots failed to hit the target, cried out in disbelief.
You know, before An Lai came, he was the best shooter in the police force!
An said nothing and pulled the trigger again.
Bang!
Before the bullet was fired, the other party made an accurate judgment again.
"Beast-like instinct?"
An thought about it and put the sniper rifle aside.
Then, she...
He grabbed the M2 heavy machine gun that had been set up beside him.
Da da da!
With a firing rate of 635 rounds per minute and strong penetrating power, the heavy machine gun's firepower instantly formed a dense firepower network, covering the oncoming monsters.
“Ahhhhhh!”
"Dirty bastard!"
Under the coverage of firepower, the monster let out miserable and angry shouts.
When the heavy machine gun stopped firing, he had been beaten to pieces.
However, there was no death.
The powerful vitality keeps the other person alive.
It also let the other party see clearly that the hateful woman was carrying a rocket launcher!
"roar!"
The other party no longer hesitated.
His flesh and blood was wriggling all over his body, and when the rocket flew out, the opponent turned into an upright werewolf.
The other party started running again.
Although it is much slower than before, it is still fast.
boom!
When the rocket exploded behind them, the enemy had already rushed in front of An and Xiusta.
An calmly took out his pistol and continued shooting.
Xiusta is not slow either.
However, the opponent simply ignored the shooting from the small-caliber pistol and allowed the bullets to hit his body.
“Go to hell!”
The other party roared, his eyes shining with bloodthirsty light, and raised his claws high.
He didn't notice at all that a leg was suddenly lifted up from the shadow nearby.
“Woof woof aaaah!”
The pain in his crotch made the wolf scream like a dog.
Not only did the claws that were raised high stop in mid-air, but even the bloodthirsty light in the eyes dimmed a bit.
Almost instantly, the opponent's combat effectiveness was reduced by more than half.
Even though he had seen Goethe, he did not rush forward again. Instead, he got on all fours and retreated quickly, even though he was limping.
"Dirty Winchester!"
"You are as despicable as your adoptive father!"
“But I’m different now!”
"I have mastered the real power!"
“Next time!”
"Next time, I will let you know what it means to live a life worse than death!"
The other party roared and his shape changed again.
The arms turned into wings, the wolf head turned into an eagle head, and the sweat hair turned into feathers.
A flap of wings.
The other party flew into the air.
"You didn't expect that?"
“I can fly!”
The other party's triumphant voice came from mid-air.
“Is it really the strength of a bear, the ears of a wolf, the speed of a leopard, the eyes of an eagle, and the brains of a pig?”
Goethe looked at the other person in mid-air and couldn't help but speak.
The next moment——
An ominous dark cloud was approaching rapidly.
It was as if a disaster had descended from the sky.
That is,
Crows!
