Chapter 116 The third look back (4400)
The next day, Kashu found his new home in a pale white courtyard.
“A pleasure to work with.”
"It's a pleasure to work together..."
The two hands were held together, on one side was Ka Xiu with a faint smile on his face, and on the other side was Ugo who was a little scared.
Next to them, except for Ugo, the other three or four members of the Shadowless Man organization stood quietly with very embarrassed expressions.
The only one who looked normal was Theresa, who was still wearing a black dress. She was also carrying a box in her hand.
Several members of the Shadowless Man Organization were so frightened last night that they even lost their shoes. After returning to the organization's stronghold in Shirakawa City, he quickly reported the news of Teresa's death, and also reported the news that several of his friends encountered the red-eyed demon.
However, before the news spread, Teresa, who was regarded by several people as having died heroically in the line of duty, came back leisurely.
For a time, the entire stronghold felt like it was facing a powerful enemy. It was thought that Theresa was being coerced by the red-eyed demonic shadow, and the location of the stronghold was exposed under forced confession. The shadow team lurking in Shirakawa City is hiding in the surrounding darkness, ready to take over the entire stronghold at any time.
After a tense misunderstanding in the end, everyone in the stronghold realized that this was an error. What Ugo and others saw was not a red-eyed demonic figure, but a secret martial arts master who had exceeded the limits of the human body. As for the attack by the Shadow Team in Shirakawa City, it is completely impossible, because this Shadow Team got into trouble with Kashu yesterday and was already in trouble.
Ugo and other elite members were extremely embarrassed that night, but Teresa brought good news to the Shadowless Man organization.
Card Xiu is willing to sell the claw-level demonic shadow in his hand.
Two million red Lebanese federal currency, payable and delivered the next day.
You must know that the ferocity and cruelty of the demon shadow are far beyond what humans can imagine. Even if he is defeated, he can quickly disappear into the darkness and escape. So it is not difficult to kill a demon shadow, but it is quite difficult to capture a demon shadow alive. It was no small feat that Teresa was able to buy a claw-level demon shadow from Ka Xiu.
With a simple operation, it is no problem to get promoted to a half-time job.
Unfortunately, the red-eyed demonic shadow still has a lot of use for Card Xiu, and Theresa cannot trade with it. Otherwise, a red-eyed demon shadow would be enough for her to climb two to three levels. He was even directly transferred to the Shadowless Man headquarters as a mid- to high-level person.
Of course, fantasy is fantasy, and the initiative is not in your own hands after all. These two demonic figures were captured by Kaxiu with his strength. He was willing to sell them to give the other party face, but if he was unwilling to sell them, there was no way he could force them. Teresa knew this very well.
"Mr. Levi, here are two million."
She immediately took a step forward and handed the box to Ka Xiu.
Card Xiu didn't show any pretense, he went directly back into the house and took out a white sack, which seemed to contain a humanoid object.
There is a strong medicinal smell on the surface of the sack. This was used to hold medicinal materials in the past. Now it has been repaired and used as waste.
"Let's see if that's the case."
He pulled the sack down, revealing a man whose whole body was bound by iron chains. His face was miserable and miserable. His mouth was tightly gagged, and there were large bruises on his forehead and face.
Seeing the sun at this moment, I closed my eyes unconsciously. The head is lowered, as if the sunlight is somewhat restrained to it.
Teresa Ugo and others quickly took a look and saw that the man's appearance was no different from that of a normal human being, but his hands were obviously longer than others, and his nails were pointed like fangs.
The shadow behind him turned its back to the sun, hiding under the body and squirming, and there was an evil aura in the darkness.
Teresa and Ugo looked at each other, that's right!
"No problem, it is indeed a claw-level demonic shadow."
Teresa nodded.
"Okay, here you go."
Ka Xiu finally helped Teresa and the others, slashing the demon's neck with a hand knife, knocking it out. Although the demon shadow is chained, it is always right to prevent accidents.
He didn't have much trust in Ugo, a group of so-called elite members who were actually happy-go-lucky members of the Shadowless Organization, and he was worried that things would go wrong.
Five minutes later, a silver-cup car with a square head and a square head drove away from the door of the house. Ka Xiu looked at it for a while and then returned to the house. Go to the third floor, take out the medicine bag, and prepare to take a medicinal bath.
Huchi, wheeze, wheeze...
In the basement, a heavy breathing sound like a cow's panting came one after another. Ka Xiu was currently squatting in a horse stance, with his toes slightly raised and his head drooping. The center of gravity of the whole body is slightly tilted forward, and the hands are clasped together.
The posture is very weird and takes a lot of physical strength.
The sweat from Ka Xiu's upper body continued to drip down as if it had fallen off the thread, soaking his gray-white training pants. The strong muscles were slightly red, like a lobster being scalded by hot water.
"Huhuhu...chih...huhuhu...chih...huh...chih..."
The regular breathing gradually accelerated, from the normal breathing of a normal person at the beginning to like a high-end blower, and finally almost continuous. The airflow at the tip of the nose was faintly white.
"ha."
Ka Xiu opened his eyes suddenly and exhaled a breath.
Standing on tiptoe, he stood on the ground again and straightened up.
The muscles all over his body shrank and shook, and large amounts of sweat hanging on the surface of his skin were blown away, forming a mist in the air.
He raised his perspective slightly and glanced at the upper right corner.
"Elephant Soul Secret Technique: Insect Bite 43.2% (three levels in total)"
From the time we returned to the retrospect era until now, the progress bar of the Elephant Soul Secret Technique has jumped by about 0.1%. It's really difficult.
Kaxiu's current realm is probably above the second minor success, and it will take a long time to reach the 66% major success.
He predicted that when the progress bar of the Elephant Soul Secret Art exceeds 66.7%, the third node of blood acceleration will be opened with a high probability. When the three blood acceleration points circulate at the same time, Kaxiu doesn't even need to practice by himself, and the secret martial arts will run automatically. Although the efficiency of practice is definitely not as good as active practice, it is better than automatic practice, and you can get stronger even when you sleep.
In fact, he has already realized this. With the two nodes of the heart and belly button opened, Kaxiu always has a faint warm current circulating throughout his body. This also makes his injury repair speed faster and the blood supply more sufficient.
Although it is not as effective as the qualitative change caused by opening all three nodes together, it can also be seen in the previous shooting. The bullet holes on his body were all healed in just one day.
This is the hidden benefit brought by two blood nodes.
Kaxiu twisted his neck and immediately walked step by step to the exercise equipment. He reached out to open the iron lock, pulled off the chain on the demon shadow, and threw it aside.
"I'll give you a chance to rush over me and out of the curtain. If you can rush through, I'll let you go." He pushed back several steps with an expressionless face, and then stood in front of the dividing curtain.
On the other side, the red-eyed demon shadow stood up. The environment in the basement was very dim. His pair of light red eyes stared at Kaxiu like a beast, and his voice was hoarse and unpleasant: "Really?"
"Why would I lie to you? Of course it's true." Kaxiu grinned, and his white teeth made the demon shadow cold all over.
Dong! Bang! Uh!
A few minutes later, the demon shadow was dragged back to the fitness equipment like a dead dog. Kaxiu picked up a metal chain and wrapped it around it, and finally squatted down and said with some disappointment: "I gave you a chance, but you are useless..."
He patted the demon shadow's left cheek: "Keep up the good work."
Kaxiu slowly stood up and patted his chest. On the chest muscles that were like rocks, two or three white marks crossed left and right.
Those were the marks left by the high-speed slashing of the Demon Shadow's claws.
The skin was broken, but no blood was seen. The Red Eye Demon Shadow was still quite capable, at least comparable to the level of a boxer. If Kaxiu had not suppressed the opponent by one realm, he would not dare to release it. Of course, he was not doing this to humiliate the opponent.
He just wanted to find an opponent to practice boxing every day. He had never met a human master of the boxer level in the real world. I don't know if it was because of the development of technology that the secret martial arts was severely oppressed and weakened. Or some other hidden reason.
In addition, Kaxiu fought with the Demon Shadow for the purpose of finding out the details of the opponent. After all, knowing yourself and the enemy, you will win every battle.
The Demon Shadow was not one or two, one or two teams. It was a large-scale dark creature hidden among humans. As a parasite, Kaxiu would be visited by the Demon Shadow one day.
It is necessary to prevent and understand in advance.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, on the small balcony of the light yellow building.
Kaxiu moved a recliner and lay on it. The sun was warm and the sky was pure blue. There was a distant singing voice coming from the room. A stereo black celluloid LP was spinning on the table. This is a newly popular record in the Red Lebanese Federation. It is twelve inches and can record many songs.
The breeze brushed across his face. Kaxiu, who was wearing casual clothes, took out a bronze ring from his arms, and his eyes flickered slightly.
In the sun, the ring glowed inexplicably.
His thoughts were very clear. The second magic shadow manifestation had passed, and the third one would be two months later. Kaxiu couldn't wait that long. Of course, he had to go back again during this period to enhance his strength. Anyway, the obsession energy was definitely enough, and there was also the third backtracking of the wind ivory pendant as a backup. It was not a problem to go back again in advance.
He glanced at the upper right corner.
"Obsession energy: 5.4"
Kaxiu's heart was slightly settled, and he slowly raised his hand.
A drop of blood was immediately pressed on the bronze ring.
Instantly, a numb and cold feeling came from all parts of the body, as if echoing with the ring. Kaxiu blinked his eyes, and everything around him was frozen like a bug frozen in amber, and a fallen leaf in the air could not fall.
"Buzz..."
Kaxiu's head shook violently, as if he was hit by a sledgehammer.
The world in front of him was spinning, and the colors of various scenes blurred together, just like a painter pouring a basin of water on a delicate oil painting. Kaxiu clenched his right hand into a fist, trying his best to keep his sanity and fight against this dizziness and blur.
Huh The strong wind swept through the rain and fog in the city at high altitude, leaving a large curved and oblique track that rolled like waves.
Water droplets passed through the dark clouds and hit the gaps between the gray and white street bricks, forming a thin mist floating on the ground. Lightning broke in the sky, thunder roared hoarsely, and dark clouds covered the entire Nington city area.
Time: fifty years ago.
July 7, 106th year of the Red Li Federation calendar.
Location: Donghai County, Nington City, Lishe Street.
This is Donghai County, the prosperous Donghai County. Since Donghai County built several ports decades ago, its economic development has been rapid. Especially more than 20 years ago, the world's shipping routes were confirmed and opened up steadily, which brought endless wealth to Donghai County. All kinds of luxury goods have to be shipped here. Although Nington City is not the core city of Donghai County, its economic development can also be ranked third or fourth, which is quite prosperous.
High-rise buildings with exterior walls covered with brown glass, huge banner advertisements for merchandise or celebrities, and chimneys reaching into the sky are the most conspicuous features of Nington. Not only that, there are also a large number of theaters, churches, stock exchanges, and exquisite mansions.
Here is a paradise for rich people to enjoy power.
Avenue Elysee, Jasmine Mansion. A large ball is being held here, and some celebrities have been invited by Charles Roche, the owner of the Cophron Company. In the mansion, many men and women in formal attire were dancing to the music.
The bright light of the chandelier cast their shadows on the smooth floor, and you could constantly see their limbs waving and beating. The shadows of the gentleman and the lady are close together as if entangled.
On the light yellow sofa at the edge, a beautiful girl in a red dress looked towards the dance floor uneasily. She came alone today without a dance partner, so she seemed a bit out of place. The girl turned her head and glanced at the edge of the dance floor on her right.
A young and handsome man was holding a red wine glass and looking forward quietly. He was wearing a casual suit, which was very close-fitting and was framed by a strong and slender figure. His face was fair and handsome, and his shiny hair was combed back, revealing his full forehead.
There is a sense of elegance and calmness about the man, with a slight sense of majesty. This person is Charles, the boss of Kephron Company, a multi-millionaire who is only twenty years old.
And today is also the man's birthday party. He didn't seem to have many family members, so he invited many celebrities from Nington City for the lively occasion. There are many beautiful unmarried women among them. After all, everyone wants to be with an unmarried rich man.
However, this rich man has a somewhat withdrawn temperament, so it may be difficult to get close to him... This is what the girl was thinking.
Charles from afar actually walked over and stretched out a hand: "Ms. Emily, you don't have a dance partner today, right? Can you dance with me now?"
"Ah...ah, of course."
Emily stood up in surprise and stretched out her other hand.
Immediately, there was another pair of beautiful men and women dancing on the circular dance floor. They were destined to be the absolute protagonists tonight.
Half an hour later, the banquet ended and the guests dispersed.
There were only the affectionate Emily and Charles in the lobby of the club. They stood by the window, listening to the sound of rain outside, and sipping red wine. The relationship is slowly warming up.
Wow!
A bright bolt of lightning flashed across the dark sky.
The hall of the guild hall, where most of the lights were extinguished, was suddenly illuminated again, and Charles' shadow was projected onto the ground. The figure and angle look like a black bat grinding its teeth and sucking blood!
Boom!
The thunder in the clouds was like the roar of a cannon.
In the hazy rainy sky, a man holding a big black umbrella walked towards the mansion step by step, carrying a bag.
He was wearing a black suit and a wide-brimmed hat that covered most of his face. He looked very mysterious. The leather shoes stepped on the rain all the way to the wall on the side of the mansion. The man glanced around and took something out of the bag.
A mechanical crossbow with a mixture of copper yellow and silver white.
The edge is extremely thick, the metal surface is engraved with wanton curling patterns, and a rotating tube like a cannon barrel hangs from the bottom.
The silver crossbow arrows in the rotating tube shimmered.
There is also a small line of cursive characters engraved on the corner of the mechanical crossbow.
"Violent Vapor."
The man looked down and was about to raise his head. Suddenly his body shook, and his whole body seemed to be frozen in the rainy night.
Wow, the rain falling crazily from the sky formed a blur of rain and fog, and the surrounding area was blurry and couldn't be seen clearly.
The raindrops as big as soybeans hit the umbrella, making a series of popping sounds, and the umbrella surface trembled slightly. Suddenly, the umbrella tilted back slightly, revealing a pair of cold and indifferent eyes.
"Eye Stranger, Blood Clan, Hunting, Black Rain Villa..."
He murmured to himself and gently weighed the crossbow in his hand.
"Also, violent steam..."
