Volume 4: The Winds and Clouds of the Western Blue Sky Chapter 37 Anger
Following Lani's instructions, Qi Ji opened the magic map, and soon, nine highlighted points appeared in various places in the city of Longjeviti on the map.
The brightest spot of light is located in the city lord's hall.
"The Life Circulation Array is essentially a forbidden technique for replacing vitality." Lani said.
“The city of Longjeviti itself is indeed rich and long-lived, but in the many small towns and villages under the jurisdiction of this rich city, the population and even the number of missing children are far higher than in other super cities.”
"Of course, the Witch Society doesn't have the energy to investigate all these things one by one. They just made a reasonable guess - all these missing people have become fuel."
"Through the Life Circulation Formation, using life as fuel, the lifespan of other receptors on the formation is extended."
"As for the fuel, once it is burned out, it will naturally disappear into the world like ashes, and then a new batch of firewood will be used to replace it."
"No need to say more." Qi Ji quickly interrupted Lani's nonsense, "Teacher Lani, just tell me directly, what should I do after I reach those node locations?"
Lani chuckled. "Once you find those locations, carefully explore the surroundings and find the locations where the vitality is most abundant. Then, you can either be on the ground or underground and adapt to the situation as you wish."
Qi Ji said he understood and said goodbye to Lani.
He put away his black armor and the Manyan greatsword, which had already become highly recognizable, and changed into light clothes. He put on a pure black mask that he had bought in another city before, and tied a sheathed single-edged sword around his waist.
Then, he took advantage of the cover of night and secretly jumped out of the window using ninja skills.
Under the moonlight, his figure was like a ghost, moving across the rooftops and dark alleys of the city, and soon he arrived near a node location indicated on the map.
It was a residential area, with houses arranged in an orderly manner. Some of the houses had lights on, while others had lights off.
No one knew which room was Qi Ji's target.
The Witch Society naturally does not have the spare time to explore where the precise node is located.
Therefore, Qi Ji could only rely on his own sense of vitality to slowly explore this residential area.
His sensitivity was several times higher than that of normal people, and he soon arrived at an area with the most vigorous vitality.
Here, there are several tall and luxurious buildings with courtyards.
Obviously, this location with the most vitality is also the location of land and real estate that wealthy people are willing to spend a lot of money to buy.
Even the flowers and plants in the yard are much more lush and colorful than those in other places in the city.
To put it bluntly, living here can probably really prolong your life and prevent you from getting sick.
Qi Ji hid on the roof not far away, lowered his body and observed each room carefully.
Soon, he ruled out several houses - the masters and servants in them frequently came and went, and there was a strong atmosphere of life, and it was obvious that they were normal families.
Then, after observing for a while, he felt something in his heart and knew that the target had appeared.
There was a brightly lit house. Although the lights were bright, there was no one moving around.
The most important thing was that there was a breath coming from that room that made Qi Ji uncomfortable—the breath of the abyss.
Now that the target has been determined, let’s go!
Soon, he arrived at the rooftop of this luxurious house, then flipped over and jumped onto the balcony on the second floor.
The door connecting the room to the balcony was tightly closed.
Qi Ji walked forward silently and pushed the door gently, but it was locked from the inside.
So he took a step back and gently grasped the hilt of the knife with his right hand.
A flash of knife!
There was a short, sharp ding, and the door was intact, but the lock on the inside of the door broke into two pieces.
A tough guy never has a headache about unlocking a lock.
Qi Ji opened the door lock smoothly with perfect physical method and pushed the door open.
Although the room was bright, it was empty.
But Qi Ji vaguely felt that something was wrong.
The next second, he jerked his head back.
The air flow surged, and a sharp sense passed before his eyes!
There's something!
Qi Ji's reaction was so sharp that while he leaned back to avoid the sneak attack, he immediately drew his sword and slashed again!
Bang !
It was the sound of a knife cutting through flesh.
Boom!
It was the sound of an object falling to the ground.
However, Qi Ji could not see any corresponding images in front of his eyes.
[Kill extraordinary creatures (second level), gain transcendence degree 50]
Invisible?
Qi Ji took a step forward, stretched out his single-edged sword and poked it lightly towards the expected position, but as expected, he encountered an obstacle.
He remembered that when he was attacking an alien demon on Earth, he had heard that another team from Daxia suffered heavy losses when attacking another alien demon. According to the survivors, they encountered invisible monsters.
Later, Qin Zijin told him that this kind of monster is called "Hidden Demon", a troublesome kind of foreign demon with a transparent body and swift movements.
Facing such a troublesome opponent next, Qi Ji couldn't help but laugh.
This room is guarded by a hidden demon, so I guess I've found the right place .
As for stealth...
Qi Ji sneered and fully released his sensory abilities that were far superior to those of ordinary people, especially his hearing.
The art of rhetoric then began.
Countless tiny sounds from all directions suddenly entered Qi Ji's ears, and then, like a model, the situation of the entire room and the subtle sounds of footsteps in the room turned into concrete images in Qi Ji's mind.
There are four hidden demons, one on the third floor, two guarding the door on the first floor, and one in the basement.
Qi Ji smiled coldly. It turned out that the node of the Life Circulation Array was set in the basement of this house.
He controlled his temper, gently opened the door of the room and walked into the corridor.
A few minutes later, although the opponents were invisible, Qi Ji was more like a ghost than them. He killed all the hidden demons silently with his ninja-like skills.
As the last hidden demon fell.
Qi Ji raised his head and walked to the door of a secret room in the basement.
He pushed gently, but the door didn't move.
Qi Ji showed a ferocious smile on his face, took a deep breath, and at the same time activated the turbulent magic explosion method.
More than ten tons of force exploded.
He pushed open the heavy door in front of him like a hydraulic press.
The scene inside soon appeared before our eyes.
There were seven tiny bodies hanging inside.
There are no limbs, no eyeballs, no tongue, and only a few black holes on the face.
Countless red strings pierced into their bodies, connected to these tiny bodies, and then connected to the center of the mysterious and complex formation on the ground and walls.
One can see with the naked eye a continuous stream of bright white light, flowing along the red rope from the tiny body slowly towards the magic arrays.
At the same time, those young bodies, which should have been playing happily, were still trembling slightly from time to time, indicating that they were still alive.
Qi Ji's eyes were bloodshot.
At this moment, he knew what his mission was in coming to this city of immortality.
He wanted to take the city lord named Cologne.
Cut into pieces!
