Volume 2: The Church of Light Chapter 239 Premeditation
"This thing relies on the power of the universe to detect, be careful."
Lou Haiyin followed behind Xu Shen and reminded him in a low voice, expressing his gratitude for Xu Shen's previous help.
Xu Shen also saw it without Lou Haiyin saying anything. He just nodded slightly and squinted at the building of Haitang Brotherhood: "What should we do? It will be difficult for us to escape if they block us like this."
"Get rid of them, of course!"
Wang Cheng heard Xu Shen's naive question and said without hesitation: "If they dare to fight us, they will be prepared to be destroyed, but don't worry, they are more afraid of us surviving. If anyone survives, they will die. Let's lure them to attack."
As he said this, he shouted:
“Lin Xiao!”
"team leader."
Lin Xiao, who had escaped to the side of a building, turned around and looked over.
"Separate yourselves, pretend to escape for survival, and attract them to attack you!" Wang Cheng said quickly in a low voice.
These words were exactly what Lin Xiao was thinking. Not to mention pretending to escape, he really wanted to escape.
Are you kidding? With two A-level beings attacking, who cares about anything else at this moment?
whoosh!
Lin Xiao quickly jumped to the other side.
At the same time, the meat vines swept over and hit the three people.
Xu Shen turned around and dodged quickly with his agility.
Lou Haiyin was always aware of the movements around him and predicted them in advance, so he quickly rolled over and dodged, but he looked a little embarrassed.
Wang Cheng was blocked by the flesh vines and could only retreat and rush to the other side. He shouted to Xu Shen and the others, "Run! Gather outside!"
"good."
Xu Shen agreed and started running.
"Wait for me."
Lou Haiyin hurriedly got up from the ground and quickly caught up with Xu Shen. In this chaotic situation, she inexplicably found some sense of security from this newcomer who had just joined the royal guard.
Xu Shen didn't look back, but rushed forward quickly.
Whether Lou Haiyin can keep up depends on her ability. At this time, Xu Shen can't care about so many things. Who knows if there is a third A-level here?
After all, he hadn't seen Maeve yet... This was also something that scared Xu Shen.
Lou Haiyin chased at full speed, but was shocked to find that the gap between him and Xu Shen was gradually widening. Could this newcomer... be at the two-state limit? !
If Xu Shen had the ability of strong attack, he could still understand it, or some other ability, but Xu Shen was the same as her, both of them were of perception.
Although there are many types of perception abilities, such as deep insight into weaknesses, mind hunting, and long-distance detection, none of them can improve the physical fitness of the user.
However, the body movements displayed by Xu Shen at this moment were not ordinary.
Bang!
A bullet came flying.
Xu Shen quickly bent down and ran along the wall for cover.
While Lou Haiyin behind him slowed down to dodge, the meat vine behind him swept over quickly, and with a bang, it hit his back spine directly.
Lou Haiyin had no time to defend himself and was swept forward, falling not far from Xu Shen.
“Save me…”
Lou Haiyin's body was bent backwards at an 80-degree angle. Despite the protection of armor, his spine was obviously broken.
She is not a reconstruction type and cannot heal herself.
Seeing Lou Haiyin struggling to get up, Xu Shen's eyes were not as gentle as before when they were on the same team. He just looked at her coldly: "Sorry."
Lou Haiyin was stunned.
She opened her eyes wide, as if she didn't recognize the young man in front of her.
During their two meetings, Xu Shen gave her the impression of being immature and humble. Although he was a little smart, he was normal.
But at this moment, this cold and emotionless look made her feel as if she was facing a fox staring at her, and she felt a chill.
camouflage!
These two words came to her mind.
The next moment, several bullets flew towards her.
Lou Haiyin was hit by a bullet and blocked it with the help of his armor, but his face became even paler.
Xu Shen looked in the direction where the sniper rifle was coming from, his eyes narrowed, but he finally chose to stop.
If several members of the Haitang Brotherhood were killed, the others would definitely find something fishy when they investigated afterwards. In this environment, there would be no chance for him to cover up his tracks.
whoosh!
The meat vine attacked Lou Haiyin again.
"Save me, please, I'll exchange everything I have for you..." Lou Haiyin stretched out her hand towards Xu Shen, her face full of fear and pleading.
Xu Shen stared at her, then suddenly made a move. A chain condensed from his internal energy shot out quickly, wrapped around Lou Haiyin's palm, and pulled it quickly, narrowly avoiding the attack of the meat vine.
"What can you give me?" Xu Shen picked her up and continued to run forward along the wall.
Lou Haiyin escaped death, but he was still frightened when he heard the rumbling sound on the ground behind him. He looked back and saw the meat vine chasing him.
She heard Xu Shen's cold words above her head and her expression became complicated. There was no doubt that the young man in front of her was pretending to be a little lamb in the team, and everyone was fooled by his acting skills.
"Xubing, purifying agent, and money, I can give you everything." Lou Haiyin said quickly.
Xu Shen said indifferently: "These things are useless to me, and I don't need yours."
Lou Haiyin's eyes showed despair, and he said: "We are on the same team after all..."
"If you say that again, I will leave you now." Xu Shen interrupted her.
The last shred of hope in Lou Haiyin's heart was shattered. Knowing that such naive words would only hasten her own death, she gritted her teeth and said, "What do you want me to do?"
"Work for me." Xu Shen said coldly, "Be loyal to me and become my believer."
Lou Haiyin stared at him in astonishment with her eyes wide open. She had never expected that Xu Shen’s goal was to conquer her and take her completely.
"this……"
As soon as she hesitated, Lou Haiyin felt the hand holding her falling slightly, as if it was about to drop her.
"I agree." Lou Haiyin said hurriedly.
Xu Shen did not say anything more, but his figure suddenly accelerated, using his ability of small but great achievements. His speed continued to increase while running. As long as it was within the 4-meter diameter of his ability, he could continue to accelerate until he reached the limit of his physical body collapse!
This is the horror of using the small to win the big. His ability characteristics allow Xu Shen to crush many strong attack abilities in close combat!
Can it speed up?!
Lou Haiyin was horrified as he looked at the building that was rapidly retreating in front of him. He thought that the previous speed was already Xu Shen's limit, but... this speed was definitely the binary limit!
Under Xu Shen's acceleration, the meat vine seemed to have lost its perception of the power, and after being thrown away, it did not catch up again.
Xu Shen went around another building and turned to look at the building where the shooting was coming from. The Begonia Brotherhood had already disappeared. They had obviously moved to another place, and it was unknown where they would launch a sneak attack from.
Xu Shen rushed towards the building where they were previously.
"Are you going to settle the score with them?!" There was a hint of panic in Lou Haiyin's eyes. Even though Xu Shen had concealed his strength, the Haitang Brotherhood consisted of five second-level members after all.
And I heard that Haitang is in the two-state limit and has mastered the extreme state.
There were only two of them, and she...could only be considered half as strong as them in a head-on fight.
Her elves don't have much fighting power.
Xu Shen didn't say anything, but in just 2 seconds, he quickly jumped to the roof of the building, stood on the floor more than 40 meters high, and looked down at the road he came from.
However, the building had already been searched by the ruins eye, and there was no sign of the Begonia Brotherhood.
There were some bullet shells at Xu Shen's feet, still warm.
Xu Shen casually threw Lou Haiyin aside and concentrated his energy to observe the place where the meat vine was.
The fog in the town seemed to be lifted, becoming much thinner, and the view could be seen very far. From time to time, more than 300 meters away, there were vibration sounds and the shadows of the rising meat vines.
"I don't know if Chen Lei and Wan Qing can survive."
Lou Haiyin got up from the ground and looked at the place in horror.
"Just ask your elf and you'll know." Xu Shen said coldly.
Lou Haiyin glanced at Xu Shen and said with a wry smile: "My elves can only provide me with some information. They don't like fighting."
"Just because you don't like fighting doesn't mean you can't fight." Xu Shen said, "Even if you can't fight, you can train them to fight. Don't limit yourself."
Lou Haiyin was stunned.
He immediately shook his head and said, "I can't. They are so docile and cute. I can't let them fight..."
Under the dark and lonely ruins of the eaves, she knew that these elves were the only ones keeping her company. How could she bear to let them go to fight?
If she got hurt, she would be very sad.
Xu Shen glanced at her and said nothing more, just staring into the distance quietly.
"Aren't we leaving?" Lou Haiyin asked.
Xu Shen sneered: "Weren't you just worried about their safety?"
“But it’s too dangerous here.”
"It's okay, they are not dead yet, we are still safe." Xu Shen said.
Lou Haiyin felt a chill and didn't understand how such cold words could come out of Xu Shen's mouth. After all, they had been talking and laughing before and were teammates.
"I'll contact the Royal Guard first and report the matter of the Begonia Brotherhood." Lou Haiyin said.
"Wait a minute." Xu Shen stopped her.
Lou Haiyin looked at Xu Shen in confusion.
Xu Shen didn't intend to say more, he just quietly watched the figures fleeing in the distance.
As he stared intently, he saw Shen Wanqing fall down injured , with the flesh vine piercing her chest, and she died tragically on the spot.
They were on duty together in the library before, but now the other person is dead.
On the other side, Chen Lei was also in a very bad condition. He was fleeing left and right in a panic as that skeleton-like shell chased him, like a mouse teased by a cat's claws. It seemed that he would die sooner or later if nothing unexpected happened.
While Xu Shen was thinking this, Chen Lei had already been caught by the skeleton zombie and his body was torn into pieces.
The two people who were chatting and laughing in front of him just closed their eyes completely.
Lou Haiyin also saw it, his face looked grim and there was some pity in his eyes.
"Um?"
At this moment, a surprised voice sounded, followed by two footsteps approaching with a relaxed smile.
Lou Haiyin turned around and his expression changed slightly. It was the Spider Man and another old man from the Haitang Brotherhood.
This old man's code name is Mr. Worry.
The old man was not at the headquarters before, but he appeared in front of Xu Shen at this moment.
"I thought you had run off somewhere, but you actually came to our side. You're really brave!"
The spider man looked at Xu Shen with a strange smile, as if he was looking at a prey caught in a trap: "Has anyone ever told you that the most dangerous place is the safest? Hehe, what a pity, this is my nest, and your entry touched my line."
"It's such a pity, two such young lives." The old man had a worried look on his face and sighed, with an expression of regret for Xu Shen and the other man.
Lou Haiyin's face was tense, and he said coldly: "You may not win in a two-on-two situation. You actually attacked our guards. Do you know how serious a crime this is?"
"As long as you die, who will know it was us who attacked you?" Spider-Man laughed.
Lou Haiyin sneered and said, "I have just spread the news. The Queen Ant's personal guards should be on their way here."
Spider-Man's expression suddenly changed. The old man's eyes became even more worried. He frowned and said, "That's really bad news. In this case, we must kill you as soon as possible."
"It's still unclear who killed whom. It's not too late for you to confess your guilt now." Lou Hai said sternly .
"Let's give it a try." The spider man smiled and slowly approached.
"Have you set up an ambush long ago?" Xu Shen suddenly asked, staring at the old man.
The worried old man said helplessly: "Sorry, you realized it too late."
"Why?" Xu Shen asked, "You couldn't have predicted that we would let Haitang explore the way, so why did you dare to tear your face off?"
"You are really looking for death by letting our boss lead the way." Spider Man sneered.
"I can't help it. You are here to investigate the cracked wall." The worried old man sighed, "Whoever comes to investigate will die. Even if we cooperate, there is nothing we can do. Speaking of the last batch of goods, those guys in the sleepless zone you mentioned had a bad attitude. It's a good opportunity to solve the problem this time, so we can eat those guys together."
Xu Shen raised his eyes slightly. He had heard Chen Qingyun talk about this matter. Although the cooperation with the Nightingale District was completed, there were some minor frictions.
"How dare you, a few two-states, steal someone's girlfriend right under the queen's nose?" Xu Shen shook his head and said, "Could it be that someone behind you in the inner city wants to cause trouble in the bottom city?"
"Don't worry about it, let's talk underground." The Spider Man sneered and suddenly rushed over.
Lou Haiyin's face changed slightly, and he quickly drew his weapon and assumed a fighting stance.
whoosh!
A large amount of spider silk suddenly shot out from the palm of the Spider Man's hand. The snow-white spider silk was covered with corrosion and mucus, covering Lou Haiyin's body .
She used the sword to block, but the sword could not cut the spider silk, it just stretched it, and the rest of the spider silk was cut into her arms, thighs and other flesh.
Her spine had been broken before, and she had difficulty standing at this moment. She immediately fell down and was entangled in the spider silk, as if she was wearing a silk dress, quite attractive.
"Hehe, I will eat you up properly." The spider man laughed, with an excited and greedy light in his eyes.
"You're a bit noisy."
Xu Shen looked at him coldly.
"Shut up!"
The spider man waved his hands, and the spider silk immediately covered Xu Shen: "Didn't you notice that you have fallen into my trap?"
As the spider silk was ejected, milky white spider silk also appeared on the ground, and the entire floor turned out to be a huge spider web.
The worried old man squatted down at some point and pressed his palm on the spider web.
The strange power was transmitted, and the snow-white and moist skin of Lou Haiyin, who was lying in front of Xu Shen's feet, suddenly became dull and wrinkled, as if she was rapidly aging.
