Volume 2: The Church of Light Chapter 241 Solution
"Someone has to sacrifice. Their abilities are suitable for covering the rear. Otherwise, we will all die." Wang Cheng argued, "You should thank me. I didn't ask you to cover the rear."
Xu Shen did not deny it: "My killing you has nothing to do with them, it's just because you are blocking my way. If you die, the captain position of the 6th team will be vacant."
"I can give it to you. I will apply to the Queen Ant when I get back and tell her that I want to retire." Wang Cheng said immediately.
"When you get to the queen ant, you'll say whatever you want, and I can't stop you."
Xu Shen looked at Lou Haiyin who was still in a daze beside him and asked, "What are you waiting for?"
"Let me do it?" Lou Haiyin had a complicated expression.
"What else?"
Lou Haiyin felt bitter, knowing that Xu Shen wanted her to pledge his allegiance and bind her completely.
"etc."
Seeing Lou Haiyin approaching slowly, Wang Cheng seemed to understand their relationship and said quickly, "I am stronger than her, and I can also submit to you, please let me go."
"My energy is limited, so it is enough to keep a trusted confidant in the personal guard. I have to take your position myself, so you must abdicate." Xu Shen said.
Only the position vacated after death will not arouse suspicion.
This unexpected incident can be said to be a godsend, which is why Xu Shen took such a move. Fortune and wealth can be achieved through risk.
"Captain, I'm sorry."
When Lou Haiyin heard what Wang Cheng said, the slight hesitation in her heart was immediately cut off. She knew that if she let the captain continue speaking, if Xu Shen changed his mind, she might be the one in trouble.
whoosh!
Lou Haiyin drew his sword and rushed forward.
Wang Cheng's face suddenly became ferocious, his whole body was surging with energy, and his body turned into a misty and illusory appearance.
This is the extreme state that can only be stimulated by the two-state limit. In a short period of time, the body can be fully energized by the power of Xu and transformed into Xu!
In the extreme state, all the mortal flesh and blood in the body are suppressed, and various aspects such as strength, speed, and perception will be greatly improved. At the same time, the temperament will also be affected at this moment, becoming strange, and even having a strong urge to eat humans.
Therefore, even at the two-state limit, one will not enter the extreme state at will. After all, in that state, cannibalism is just a trivial matter. If there are close friends or family members around, they are very likely to be eaten as well.
With the strengthening of Jixu state, Wang Cheng's combat power increased rapidly, and he was able to serve as the captain of the Sixth Squad. He was more than able to block Xu Shen's three swords.
With a bang, his paralyzed body strangely stood up from the ground again, and he suddenly punched Lou Haiyin with his backhand.
There is a ferocious fist and sword on the fist. If this punch hits, the body will be torn apart.
Lou Haiyin was shocked and angry, and dodged quickly. She saw the elves around her constantly urging her to dodge. Although these elves could provide her with some information, they could not help her fight.
Under Wang Cheng's counterattack, Lou Haiyin fumbled to defend herself and was hit on the sword's edge by a punch. The violent force almost made her unable to hold the sword, and her body flew backwards.
Wang Cheng, who knocked Lou Haiyin away, looked at Xu Shen viciously, but did not chase him to finish him off.
It was meaningless for him to deal with Lou Haiyin, so he suddenly turned around and ran away.
"Is this the Jixu state..." Xu Shen watched Wang Cheng's body crawling away in a strange posture. His meridians and blood vessels had been dismantled before, but he could still move in the Jixu state. It was incredible.
Xu Shen swung his hand, and the chain condensed from the Xu silk shot out violently. With the increase in speed in the 4-meter area, it shot out suddenly like a bullet.
Wang Cheng heard the noise and dodged hastily, but the chain, like a poisonous snake, had locked onto him, changed direction in mid-air, pierced through his calf, and then quickly retracted.
Wang Cheng roared and turned around to punch, but the chain was soft and was not cut by the sword.
At the same time, several chains shot out like bullets, blocking his body.
Almost at the same time, Mo Wei appeared beside Wang Cheng and suddenly punched him in the brain.
Wang Cheng was about to dodge the chains when he felt his brain buzzing, as if his consciousness was blunted and his thoughts came to a brief halt.
This brief pause caused his body to be pierced by chains and dragged in front of Xu Shen.
Coming to Xu Shen's feet, Wang Cheng used his ability of small-scale advantage to gain big benefits. He suddenly felt his own strength weakening, and the power of the chain became irresistible.
"Solve it."
Xu Shen said indifferently.
Lou Haiyin got up from the ground and rushed over quickly. Her body was not affected and she swung her sword to cut.
Wang Cheng roared: "Asshole!!"
With a "puff", the head was chopped off, and his face was full of unwillingness and resentment.
His body loses strength and slowly becomes limp. The internal energy is no longer guided by his will and gradually calms down from its "boiling" state, retreating from its extreme state to an ordinary state.
The chain shook slightly, cutting open his chest and taking out some of his internal organs.
Lou Haiyin heard the swallowing sound, turned his head and took a look, his face turning even paler.
"Are there too many people at home?"
Xu Shen suddenly muttered to himself.
In the dark room, "Mom" stood at the door and said softly, "It's okay, just let him stay at the door. When he gets familiar with the place, let him in. After all... he is still a stranger now."
Don't let strangers into your home easily.
Xu Shen understood what "Mom" meant, nodded, and then looked at Lou Haiyin.
Lou Haiyin stood up tremblingly. She gritted her teeth and lifted up Wang Cheng's head, saying, "What should we do now?"
"leave."
Xu Shen turned around and said, "It's too dangerous here. Let's go to a safe place first, send back a message for help, and then wait for rescue."
Who here could be more dangerous than you... and do you really need someone to rescue you? Lou Haiyin had a lot to complain about but couldn't utter it out loud, so it could only turn into a silent bitter smile.
She could only follow Xu Shen, and the two of them walked out of the town.
While walking, Lou Haiyin kept asking the elf about the surrounding situation, and asked Xu Shen curiously: "How did you know he would be here? Even if it is a perception system... it doesn't have such a large range, right?"
Xu Shen didn't look back and didn't explain.
The silent atmosphere made Lou Haiyin feel a little awkward, and also made her realize that her question was a bit offensive.
Who am I now? How can I ask such a question...
Lou Haiyin smiled bitterly in his heart and could only observe his surroundings obediently.
Xu Shen looked around. He was not reassured by relying solely on Lou Haiyin's perception, and he was also always alert to the movements around him.
As for detecting Wang Cheng, he naturally didn't need to tell Lou Haiyin about his method, although it was just a small method, through the mark made by Xu Si.
The ability to make the most of a small thing brought Xu Shen a huge improvement. He could shrink the Xu silk to a level thinner than a hair and enter Lou Haiyin's body to heal her. Naturally, he could also put such Xu silk on other people as a mark.
The spider man had made a spider web on the floor of the building he built before, but Xu Shen...left traces of spider webs all around the town.
Not long after, Xu Shen and Lou Haiyin arrived outside the town.
With Xu Shen's permission, Lou Haiyin passed the news back to the Snow Palace.
And what the two of them have to do next is to wait on the spot.
"Will they find out there's another reason for the captain's death?"
Lou Haiyin was still a little worried. Although they had covered up some traces, the Royal Guards were full of talented people with all kinds of abilities. Some of them were incredible, and no one knew whether they could use their abilities to restore the scene.
"I hope there are no such talents." Xu Shen said.
Seeing that Xu Shen looked calm and not worried at all, Lou Haiyin asked, "What if?"
Don't be afraid of ten thousand things, just be safe!
"Then we have to reduce one more talent." Xu Shen said.
Lou Haiyin was stunned and felt a chill in his heart. The man in front of him was so bold. Did he really think that the queen ant's guards were pigs and dogs? He could kill them whenever he wanted?
"Could it be that you deliberately lurked next to the queen ant?"
Lou Haiyin looked at Xu Shen cautiously. Xu Shen hid himself so well, and with such powerful strength, it was obviously a waste of his talent to be only a personal guard.
"Don't think too much, I just want to climb higher." Xu Shen glanced at Lou Haiyin.
Lou Haiyin forced a smile in response, not sure whether she should believe Xu Shen.
Just to climb to the position of captain, he killed Wang Cheng... In fact, this is indeed the easiest way to get promoted.
When a position becomes vacant, there is naturally a need to promote someone.
Otherwise, it would take a long time to slowly gain experience... Lou Haiyin suddenly felt that he seemed to understand some of the deeper feelings.
Most importantly, the elves around her were also chirping:
He is right.
He did the right thing.
He killed well.
You little cuties, how can you be so cruel? He has killed someone... Lou Haiyin sighed inwardly, feeling that by following Xu Shen, these simple and kind-hearted elves around him would be corrupted.
Boom!
At this time, a roar came from deep in the town, which was the sound of a building collapsing.
There were also bursts of screams.
There was panic in these screams. After listening carefully, the two realized that it was probably the residents left behind in the town who were driven out by the monsters.
There is no doubt that these missed survivors will soon meet with misfortune.
whoosh!
Suddenly, in an alley ahead, a figure rushed out from a low building, fell to the ground in a mess, rolled several times, and then got up.
When they looked, it turned out to be Lin Xiao.
He has activated his ability and transformed himself into a porcupine, with thick skin and flesh, but at this moment he is also covered in scars.
Lin Xiao also saw Xu Shen and the others. He was stunned for a moment, then ran over in surprise: "You are here too? Great, come and help me, those bastards are chasing me!"
Judging from your appearance, you look more like a bastard... Lou Haiyin silently complained in her heart, but she has always been a kind-hearted person, so naturally she would not say such vulgar words.
Ah? Why do you say she is beautiful and kind?
Of course, it was the elf next to me who said so.
Could there be anything wrong with what these innocent little cuties say?
Lou Haiyin did not take action immediately, but looked at Xu Shen.
But seeing Xu Shen's face full of nervousness and anxiety, he asked, "How many people are there?"
This expression...are you serious?
Lou Haiyin was stunned, speechless and in admiration. It was no wonder that she had been deceived before, with such a quick change of expression.
He is indeed a master of acting.
"Three." Lin Xiao rushed to the two of them and said, "Have you sent a message back? Cooperate with me. If it's three against three, we may be able to win."
"But I am a perception system and have no combat ability." Lou Haiyin said immediately.
"You can help me to contain him. He doesn't know you are a perception system and will be distracted to keep an eye on you." Lin Xiao said quickly. He transformed into a porcupine, his voice was rough but his mind was delicate.
As the two were talking, three figures rushed out of the building in front of them, led by Haitang.
Beside him were White Crow and Mr. Princess.
At this moment, in combat mode, the princess changed her attitude from a little girl to a dignified look, like a brave father.
"Here it comes." Lin Xiao's face tightened.
To be honest, Xu Shen and Lou Haiyin beside him are both perception types, so he has no idea what to do. He just hopes to intimidate the other party with the number of people.
"Um?"
Haitang frowned slightly when she saw Xu Shen and the other two, then sneered, "He's not dead yet, that's great, let's solve it together now."
"I won't let any danger exist around my daughter." Mr. Princess walked over with a dagger-like gaze and a cold expression.
Bai Ya looked at Xu Shen with a smile, without saying anything, but his eyes seemed to be saying, although we have cooperated before, now I can only give you a ride.
"We have already sent the message back. Reinforcements will arrive soon. It's still not too late for you to stop now." Xu Shen said angrily to the three people.
Lou Haiyin opened her mouth slightly, but the words that were about to come out of her mouth were snatched away by Xu Shen, and she felt a little aggrieved.
“Who asked you to provoke us first…” Haitang’s expression did not change. She remained elegant and sighed softly, “It’s useless even if the news leaks out now. At worst, we can pack up and leave here, return to the inner city to develop, or move to another base city, and you can only stay here forever.”
"The Queen Ant won't let you leave so easily." Lin Xiao sneered.
"Do you think the Queen Ant is the only king in Bocheng?" Haitang said with a smile, "With such a big incident like the cracked wall, she doesn't have the energy to chase us around."
Xu Shen narrowed his eyes and said, "So, you planned this? Who are you working for?"
"You'll know when you die." Haitang smiled and waved her hand, saying, "You guys deal with them, Brother Xu, leave it to me. I feel a little regretful that we didn't fight last time."
As he spoke, he rushed towards Xu Shen.
Lin Xiao's face darkened and he said, "Your opponent is me!"
"You're not worthy yet." Haitang sneered as she charged forward.
Lin Xiao was furious and rushed towards him with a growl.
Xu Shen reminded: "His weaknesses are in the chest and kidney area."
Haitang's face changed slightly, and she snorted coldly: "You're looking for death!"
When Lin Xiao was about to rush to Haitang, Bai Ya rushed over from the side and kicked Lin Xiao down with a flying kick, but no harm was caused. The two soon started fighting.
Haitang did not slow down and rushed straight to Xu Shen.
Xu Shen did not fight back, but turned around and ran away.
When Lou Haiyin saw Xu Shen's actions, she immediately realized that he was still trying to act. Perhaps because Lin Xiao was present, Xu Shen did not intend to expose himself. She felt helpless and could only run to the other side.
"Don't run, my daughter said you are suitable to be her mother." Mr. Princess rushed over and blocked Lou Haiyin.
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Lou Haiyin was so angry that he was speechless.
"I will cripple your hands and feet first, and then take you back. When you see my daughter, you will fall in love with her." Mr. Princess seemed to be talking to herself, and then rushed towards Lou Haiyin.
