Volume 1: The Inside and Outside of the World 013 Urgent Mission, Count Me In!

Back home, Yang Shu finished an hour of cultivation and found that he had a little more connection with that other world, and he could get magic replenishment through the moment of consciousness link - although it was not much, but it was a collection of armpits.

Suddenly, Yang Shu, who was about to go to bed, felt a message from the Book of Souls in the soul space: "Get ready for battle, quickly gather at the noodle shop at No. 107 Huanchun Street, AS District." - Chu Qiu".

After a period of practice, Poplar can now read the information on the Book of Souls directly in his head, without the need to take it out and look at it with the naked eye.

"I don't know what's wrong?" Yang Shu changed into the black basic combat uniform in the novice supplies, put on a sportswear outside, and hurriedly rode his bicycle to the noodle shop, unable to help but feel a little worried in his heart.

It's midnight, and the noodle shop that should have closed for rest is now full, with all kinds of transportation parked in front of the store, and everyone in the shop has a heavy expression, looking like something big is happening.

Walking to the store, Yang Shu found Chu Qiu and An Yi at a table in the corner, and he hurriedly walked over and sat down.

"What's going on?" Poplar asked.

"There was a research Earl-level vampire who escaped from the lab and is now wandering to CQ City, causing multiple homicides, and now there are many blood servants and ghouls in the city, causing a small panic. Chu Qiu's expression was also solemn.

"Lord Shanhai has already led a team to hunt down the escaped Earl-level vampire, but these blood servants and ghouls who are hiding everywhere need to dispatch a lot of manpower to search for them, so our operators below the third level have been urgently mobilized to participate in the encirclement and suppression. ”

Yang Shu asked again: "Even Level 0 operators like An Yi and me have to participate?"

"Poplar, it's not a question of whether or not to participate, it's our obligation and mission. An Yi had some dissatisfaction with Yang Shu's words.

"But can we beat them?"

"Let's go, don't talk about it, I'll pass on the information about the abilities of the blood squire and ghouls to you in the Book of Souls, and we're in charge of Shengli Road and Shuangjiang Street in AS District, and we're on a mission. Chu Qiu stood up, walked out of the noodle shop, and rode into a blue BMW R1200GS.

Straddled on the motorcycle, Chu Qiu held a helmet in one hand, turned his head to the two poplars and said, "Victory Road to me." ”

With the roar of an engine, Chu Qiu's sassy and heroic appearance disappeared into the corner of the street.

"Qingxu, how do we get over?" asked Yang Shu.

Although Shengli Road and Shuangjiang Street are both in the AS area, they are still more than 20 kilometers away.

An Yi looked at the bicycle that Yang Shu rode over and sighed: "You can take my car." ”

Five minutes later, Poplar was sitting in the passenger seat of a Beetle, reading the message of the Blood Servant and the Ghoul from the Book of Souls.

"Qingxu, I'm a little nervous, you know I was an ordinary person a week ago. After reading the information, Poplar looked uneasy, staring at the street lamps and street trees outside the car window.

"I can't be like you, fearless and risking my life. ”

An Yi was driving the car at full speed at this time, and he didn't have time to pay attention to Yang Shu: "It's not your fault, no one will blame you for this." ”

15 minutes later, when Shuangjiang Street arrived, An Yi casually found a place to park the car, and the two got out of the car.

There are many bars and Internet cafes on Shuangjiang Street, and the lights are bright and green on weekdays, and they stay up all night.

At this time, the streets were deserted.

"There is already a curfew nearby, and there are special magic circles that can interfere with the senses of nearby residents, and they can use supernatural powers at will. As An Yi spoke, she took out a compass and injected mana into it, and the pointer on it kept shaking.

"It will point out the most evil in the neighborhood. ”

When An Yi was using the compass, Yang Shu took out a cigar, put it in his mouth, took off his shirt, revealing his body that had been slightly strong due to exercise recently, and then mobilized his native magic power, armed with energy, to protect his heart, back of his head, spine, and important joints, and held a small round shield condensed by magic power in his right hand.

The needle of the compass points to the north.

"Your new ability?" asked Anyi as she saw Poplar take off her clothes.

"Yes, I'll go ahead. "Poplars lead the way.

An Yi did not object, followed behind the poplar tree, in addition to the compass, he took out a peachwood sword and floated beside him, and also pasted a rune paper on his body, and the golden light flashed all over his body.

The empty streets, the dim street lamps, and the faint sense of crisis from his ability [Crisis Sense], Poplar held the small round shield in front of him, and slowly moved forward step by step.

"Well, Yaku, you can go faster, the compass shows that the evil thing is some distance away from here. An Yi couldn't stand it anymore and complained behind her.

Poplar blushed and switched to a normal walking pace.

The two stopped in front of a manhole cover.

"Down there?" Poplar asked, confirming.

"Yes, be careful when you go down, it's close. An Yi was also nervous at this time, and pasted a bright talisman on the poplar tree.

Due to historical reasons, there are many air-raid shelters underneath CQ City, coupled with an extremely developed drainage pipe network, the underground space is large and complex.

Lifting the manhole cover, the poplar leaps down and looks around.

"Safe. Gesture to Anyi.

An Yi stepped on the peachwood sword and slowly descended.

The sewers are flanked by narrow walkways, with flowing sewage in the middle, and all kinds of debris floating on the water, and even human corpses can be seen.

A mutilated body in overalls and a hard hat was washed down the sewage and found by a poplar.

"A corpse was found, with signs of gnawing, confirming that there were ghouls nearby. Poplar resisted the urge to vomit, clenched his fists, and his heart beat violently.

The two of them moved in the direction where the corpse had drifted from.

At this time, it is the beginning of autumn, the autumn tigers have not yet passed, the climate is hot, the sewers are full of foul smells, mosquitoes and flies, snakes and rats are rampant.

After walking about a kilometer, Poplar couldn't help but vomit when he saw the second human corpse.

The corpse had been gnawed down to its face, and it was highly decomposed, with countless maggots wriggling on its scarred skull.

At the moment when the poplar turned his head and vomited, the mutation suddenly changed, and the corpse jumped up from the water and pounced on the poplar, its mouth wide open far beyond the limit of the human body.

"Disease!" An Yi did not relax his vigilance at this moment, and drank in his mouth, and the peachwood sword turned into a sword light and flew out, piercing the ghoul's head, and the wound was scorched.

But there was more than one enemy, and the sewage water burst open, and two more ghouls jumped out, each attacking Poplar and Anyi, while the sound of high heels stepping on the ground echoed through the sewer pipe.

One of them was the same overalls corpse I had seen earlier!

"There's a blood servant nearby!" An Yi warned.

Poplar turned around, and in front of him was a bloody mouth and a sharp claw, the rancid breath was coming, the [Crisis Sense] constantly sounded the alarm, and the adrenaline level soared, suppressing the discomfort in the body.

The round shield of his right hand slammed into the ghoul's head, and the ghoul's claws also slashed through the poplar's chest, and the energy armor in the heart was crushed, and three deep blood grooves appeared in the chest, and at the same time, a huge force knocked the poplar away, hitting the wall, dizzy.

At this time, Poplar has [Naked Clothes] to increase 100% of his physical strength, and [Man and Smoke] to slightly increase his ability to resist blows, but this is still the case, and ordinary people will be directly disemboweled.

The ghoul received a blow to the head, his skull was badly deformed, and he was knocked into the sewage.

It grabbed the corpses of various creatures floating on the surface of the water and stuffed them in its mouth, and its head quickly recovered.

Before the poplar could slow down, a pair of slender long legs appeared on the walkway on the opposite bank in red high heels.

It was the woman who borrowed an umbrella in the rain that day.
