Chapter 983: Blades ‘invasion of the demon City (5)
Translator: 549690339
8 p.m., In the demonic city’s library.
“I feel like there’s a conspiracy behind this …” Long Aomin said to tan Lang as he retreated.
“Alright, I told you not to turn around.” Tan lang replied,”look … It’s closed again.”
At that moment, the three members of blades were standing in a tunnel made of Emerald walls. There wasn’t much to say about the path they came from. There were just some monsters blocking the way, but the side they intended to go to was blocked by a huge “stone face.”
The face was orange-red in color, with a pair of glowing green eyes, a large nose, and a mouth full of protruding fangs … Overall, it looked like the face of a demon or an evil spirit.!!
Five minutes ago, the three of them had arrived in front of the “face door.” After searching for a while, they did not find any clues to open the door. Just as they were about to turn back, they heard the sound of bricks rolling.
The three of them turned around and happened to see the mouth of the face closing …
Then, after several tests, they finally found the pattern of the door. When someone approached a certain distance with their back to it, it would “open its mouth” and become ready to pass through.
Therefore, tan lang came up with the plan of “the three of them retreat and walk through the door together.”
However, this was undoubtedly more dangerous … If there was a trap behind the door, they would most likely fall into it if they went in like this.
“I think so too,” seven kills said.”I’m not afraid of the monsters and traps … But I’m afraid that Feng bujue is waiting for us behind the door.”
“That’s impossible. ” Tan lang shook his head and replied.
“You’re so sure?” Long Aomin asked.
“I’ve already seen it. This guy is wasting time with us. ” Tan lang replied,”he doesn’t intend to destroy us as soon as possible. Instead, he’s waiting for something …”
“Oh? Why do you say so?” Seven kills turned to ask.
“Well …” Tan lang thought for a few seconds, organized his words, and said,”do you remember the communication he made with us through the monster’s mouth?”
“Ah, of course I remember.” Seven kills replied with a pained expression.
“Think about it carefully …” Tan Lang’s expression was very serious.”That was definitely not a spur of the moment but a very clever psychological guidance …” He paused for a few seconds to give his two teammates some time to think before he continued,”first, through this method, Feng bujue allowed us to understand that Cheng Cheng ‘we are under his surveillance’. It can be said that he can attack us at any time …”
Brother Dragon and seven kills nodded, indicating that they were still following the advisor’s train of thought.
“After that, he used the war of words with seven kills … To improvise and reveal some information to us without revealing anything. He also took the opportunity to mock us.” Tan lang continued,”although his words were full of lies … I think you, like me, had already realized it at that moment … He said those words to anger us, to create psychological pressure on us, and to make us speed up the exploration in our anxiety.”
“Yeah, isn’t that the case?” Brother long said.
“No.” Greed shook his head.
Seven kills and brother Dragon’s expressions changed.
“A double trap …” Tan lang continued and looked at his two teammates ‘faces.”Do you understand?”
“You mean …” Seven kills said thoughtfully.”His true intentions … Are actually the opposite?”
“That’s right. ” Tan lang nodded.”Why don’t we look at it from the surface … Assuming that Feng bujue really wants us to speed up the operation, what is his purpose? It’s nothing more than to make us consume more physical energy and life in a hurry, making it easier to kill. ” He paused for half a second and then changed the topic.”But what’s the actual situation? We haven’t encountered any particularly dangerous obstacles since we entered the city …”
Greed looked around and continued,”Since our actions have always been under his surveillance, why didn’t he do anything? With his abilities, even if he doesn’t show himself or engage in a direct confrontation, he has countless ways to deal with us … But he only used words to pressure us. Isn’t this self-contradictory?”
“Hmm …” Brother Dragon touched his chin and muttered,”so you mean … He doesn’t want to kill us?”
“I want to, but not now.” Tan Lang’s expression darkened.”Based on my observation … Feng bujue and sky-devouring Phantom dawn have one thing in common. No matter how Tao Wu stratagems, from a psychological point of view … They never see their enemy as their equal. To put it simply … They’re all extremely condescending. ” He snorted.”Hmph … So they all have a habit of giving ‘defeat the enemy’ a secondary priority to’ explore the script ‘.”
As tan lang spoke, he made a gesture to his two teammates, indicating them to turn their heads and retreat.
Even though tan lang had not explained everything, Qi Sha and long Aomin could feel his confidence, so they did not question his decision to’ retreat ‘.
The three of them took large steps back and soon passed through the mouth of the stone face. They entered a dark brown space from the Emerald passage.
In the end … None of the traps were triggered. They turned around again, but the stone face’s mouth did not close.
“Based on the current scenario, Feng bujue is obviously trying to play this trick again …” Several seconds later, tan lang continued.”Actually, he doesn’t want to face us so soon. No matter what he says, what he is actually doing is … To avoid direct contact with us and stall for time.” He paused for a moment.”In order to achieve this goal, he needed our cooperation, so … He played with this ‘double trap’.”
“In other words … From the very beginning, he knew that we would be able to see through the intention behind his words.” “So he’s trying to convey a message that’s completely opposite of his true intentions?” seven kills asked.
“Yes, I am.” Tan lang replied, then sighed and continued,”sigh … To be honest, this guy’s talent in psychological induction makes me, a person who has studied psychology seriously, feel inferior …” He took the opportunity to act tough and continued,”when he urged, angered, and pressured us, he knew that we would see through his intentions, and then he did the opposite. He moved steadily and steadily, advancing step by step. And if we do that, we’ll be playing right into his hands. ”
“I’m confused too …” Brother Dragon scratched his head and said,”anyway … We have to be fast, right?”
“Yes, the sooner the better.” Tan lang said,”don’t worry about any particularly dangerous situation. Just treat it as a normal script.” His eyes changed slightly as he read,”if I’m not wrong … Feng bujue is probably busy with something else. As long as we move faster, we will have the chance to disrupt his plan and rhythm, or even catch him off guard.”
…………
Above the black clouds, night had fallen.
A massive thunderstorm that was rarely seen in a hundred years had already occupied the sky above the city. Most of the civilians had chosen to stay at home and avoid going out.
However, the police, firefighters, medical staff, and the Army still had to be on duty as usual …
At this time, on the road between dark Creek Road and the city, a car was driving at a constant speed. There were two people in the car. Hill the Tramp was in the driver’s seat, and in the passenger’s seat was the ten-year-old Feng bujue.
Just as they were halfway there, a row of neat car lights appeared in the distance ahead, and they were clearly driving in their direction.
“You’re finally here …” Feng bujue mumbled when he saw that. Then he turned to Scheer and asked,”have you … Memorized the lines I taught you?”
“Yes … I’ll remember.” Hill replied nervously.
“Relax.” Feng bujue continued in a lazy tone,”just do as I say, and you will be fine. The more nervous you are … The more suspicious you look.”
“Alright … I’ll try my best.” Hill took a few deep breaths and adjusted his facial expression.
About a minute later, they met the group of cars. When they got closer, they could clearly see that those cars … Were basically all military jeeps and police cars, and there were even a few armored vehicles.
It was obvious that the black pillar of light had attracted the attention of the local government. However, in this kind of movie adapted script, the police or Army often came later … So, it took a few hours for these troops to gather and arrive at their current position.
Naturally, Feng bujue had anticipated this. Before they left the castle, he had already given Hill his statement. If the car was stopped for an interrogation, they would be able to get away with it.
As expected, before brother Jue’s car met the police cars, a police car drove out from the convoy and blocked the road in the opposite direction. Two police officers walked out of the car and raised their hands at brother Jue.
Hill was already mentally prepared. He slowly stopped the car and turned off the engine. Then, he rolled down the window on his side and turned to look at the police officer who was walking over.
“What is this? Police officer. ” Before the other party could speak, Hill threw out a question.
“This situation is called ‘mind your own business’.” The officer in charge of the interrogation leaned over the window next to the driver’s seat and replied,”look at this for yourself … Is this something you can ask?” As he spoke, he used his eyes to signal to the armored vehicle that was passing by behind him.
“I say … Could it be related to that black light pillar?” Hill pretended to be curious.
“What’s wrong? Did you see anything? Mister. ” The police officer’s expression immediately turned serious.
“Uh … No, I didn ‘t.” Hill shrugged and replied with a rather sincere look,”my nephew and I were camping by the river this afternoon. We were fishing … Then we saw a pillar of light in the sky …” He lowered his voice.”To be honest … I thought it was the military doing some experiment … I was so scared that I ran away with my nephew and didn’t even pack up our camping things. But I didn’t expect … My nephew to fall into the river by accident. This kid can’t swim, so I spent a lot of effort to save him … He almost drowned …”
“Okay, okay …” The police officer immediately showed an impatient expression and interrupted him rudely,”show me your driver’s license first.”
“Oh, okay.” Hill nodded and took out his driving license from his shirt pocket.
After the officer took the driver’s license, he compared Hill’s face to the photo on the driver’s license with the light of the flashlight.
Since it was a real document and the holder was Hill, there was no problem with the inspection …
“How did your nephew end up like this?” When the officer returned the driver’s license to Hill, he glanced inside the car and asked Feng bujue,”
“Didn’t I tell you … He fell into the river …” Hill answered fluently with a natural expression.”He couldn’t find dry clothes to change into at the moment, so I had his clothes for tonight’s party in my car, so I let him change into them first.”
“A party?” The police officer asked again.
“It’s a Halloween party, officer. ” Feng bujue turned around to say something. He pouted and continued with the expression of a ten-year-old child throwing a tantrum.”But I heard that the plan has been canceled. How annoying!”
Hill turned around to look at brother Jue and cast him a look of admiration for his excellent acting. Then, he turned to the police officer and said,””We heard the broadcast just now … It said that all the celebrations were canceled because of the thunderstorm. The child was so disappointed. You know, the clothes he was wearing was his mother’s …”
“Alright, it’s done … Sir.” The officer had already taken Hill as a Chatterbox. Before Hill could start another argument, he said,”you guys should hurry up … Remember, leave this area as soon as possible and wait indoors.”
“Uh … Okay, officer.” Scheer even politely stuck her head out of the window to greet the other party. It seemed that she had gotten into character.
Two seconds later, the officer had already turned around and walked a few meters away. He spread his hands and shook his head at his partner.
It looked like … Hill and brother Jue’s performance had been very successful.
At this time, the large fleet of cars had already passed by brother Jue’s group. Only the police car that had stopped to question them had not followed.
; Dozen seconds later, Hill started the car again and drove past the police car. The two police officers had also returned to the car and were ready to turn around and follow the convoy.
Just when both sides thought that the matter would end here, unexpectedly …
Coincidentally, the officer in charge of the interrogation caught a glimpse of the license plate of brother Jue’s car. (This state did not require the front of the car to have a license plate, so they could only have the back plate.)
“Hey! Wait a minute! That license plate number … Wasn’t it the car that was reported missing this morning?”
“Dammit! They’re running away, hurry up and chase them!”
The next second, the two officers used their walkie-talkies to report the situation to their colleagues. They then sounded the police siren and chased after brother Jue.
