Chapter 34: Cracking Identities

Link's secretly arranged move was broken in an instant, and he didn't even delay for a second.

At this moment, without the sand sculpture using the 'sand and dust sweep' as a trick, the only thing Link can do is run!

One jumped over a half-metre fence and then quickly ran towards the back wall.

But in the next second, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Link, and a whip leg was as fast as lightning, directly kicking Link back to the hall.

[You are hit by the Whipleg of the Man in Black, losing 50 health]

[You smash to the ground, stamina immunity from this fall damage]

Link fell to the ground, a painful whimper coming out of his mouth.

This mysterious man is too strong, and the only detected 'Midnight Ghost' trait is desperately strong.

It's a level 40 character in itself, and it's a legendary level, and it's scary with high seven-dimensional attributes!

There is also the 'Midnight Ghost' perk of +50% movement speed at night, and Link feels powerless.

The man in black walked unhurriedly, looking with interest at Link, who was curled up on the ground in agony.

"Get up, don't pretend, I know this in my heart."

"Don't even think about touching the shotgun, you won't have a chance to shoot......"

The man in black unfolded his palm, and the large lead bullet fell to the ground with a thud.

Link hurriedly got up and opened the chamber of the shotgun, only to find it empty.

After fighting Jack, he reloaded all his weapons, but now all four buckshots have fallen into the hands of the man in black.

A chill rushed from Link's spine to the top of his head, and he shivered violently behind his back.

The only contact he had with the man in black was a whip leg.

How did this man manage to kick him away and unload the ammunition from the shotgun in less than a second?

It's too fast!

If the other party wanted to kill him just now, he would already be a dead man.

The oppression given to Link by the man in black is too strong, like a humanoid X-ray machine, which can see through all of Link's thoughts.

In the eyes of the other party, every step he made was like a clown.

"There is no trace of mutation in your body, you are not a mutant; The body energy is also not high, and it does not feel any natural breath, nor is it a druid. ”

The man in black squatted on the ground, picked up a semi-unconscious silver marching ant and put it in the palm of his hand, and observed it carefully: "The all-metal creature is lifelike, it should be a new biological robot if nothing else, right?" ”

Then he tilted his head to look at Link: "But you are pure flesh and blood, and you don't feel any electrical signals from you, how do you control them?" ”

Link's heart sank to the bottom.

Men in Black have a showdown.

It's for his golden finger.

The man in black threw away the silver marching ant in his hand, got up and stretched out his hand to greet Link: "I watched the whole battle you just now, and you can use any hole cards, if you don't make a move, you won't have a chance." ”

Link burst into a shout and swung his fist at the top of his lungs, trying to fight the man in black in close quarters.

Compared with the previous Jack, the fist is not half a star worse.

The man in black had doubts in his eyes, and he couldn't understand how Link dared to swing such a haphazard fist.

With Jack's 'Jewel in front', and then watching Link's punches, it's a bit spicy-eyed.

The man in black wanted to see what tricks Link played, but he didn't fight back, just used one hand to resist Link's dense attacks.

[You have successfully hit Mysterio with a melee attack, activating the perk [Basic Combat]]

[[Basic Combat] Progress 2%...... 4%……]

Immediately afterward, Link saw the word 'block' constantly popping up on the man in black.

All his attacks were blocked by the man in black with one hand.

This hand is like an iron door, airtight, and can be blocked with one hand no matter what angle Link hits.

The man in black waited for Link's backhand.

He knew that this shabby fight was just a faΓ§ade, and Link must be brewing a follow-up.

And in order to see Link's backhand, he is willing to accompany him here to 'feed the tricks'.

The word 'hey' is used very delicately, at least on Link's side.

Normally, the proficiency increase of [Basic Fighting] is calculated at 0.1%, but because the opponent is lv40+ (Legendary), the proficiency gained by Link has increased terrifyingly, and in just a dozen seconds, the proficiency of [Basic Fighting] has increased to 40%.

"Strength, weakness."

"Agile, slow as a turtle crawling."

"Energy, about equal to nothing."

"Endurance, barely strong."

"Temperament, emmmm......"

The man in black was also ruthless, complaining while receiving the call, and when it came to temperament, he looked at Link's figure and appearance......

Running out of words.

Link was still looking for an opportunity, and when he heard the poisonous comments of the man in black, he stabbed his heart with a knife.

Especially when it comes to temperament, what does it mean that you don't open your mouth and keep emmmmm?

Link felt insulted.

"Kill me, you can't humiliate me!"

Link let out a loud shout, his fist became more urgent, and it smashed into the man in black like a storm.

The man in black still parried with one hand, looking extremely relaxed.

Link's outbursts didn't affect him in the slightest.

[Reach 100% proficiency in [Basic Fighting] and activate the specialty [Basic Combat Lv1]]

With a system prompt, Link activates [Basic Combat].

Basic Combat Lv1: Melee Attack +1%, Attack Speed +1%, Melee Accuracy +1%

Link didn't make any waves about this, and now that he couldn't even save his life, what was the use of skyrocketing proficiency?

At this moment, the man in black suddenly turned his defense into an attack, and his blocking left hand suddenly changed into a palm, and he swung a palm to knock Link away.

The huge force is even more powerful than the previous Jack, and it directly pushes Link sideways.

But the force was fairly steady, designed to push Link back, not hurt him.

Link staggered backwards a few steps to the ground, unharmed.

"If that's all there is to look forward to."

The man in black touched the buttons on the cuffs of the suit, and the black suit suddenly produced a visible arc of electricity, from the neck all the way down to the ankles, completely scanning the body from top to bottom.

Immediately afterwards, the man in black shook his clothes, and a lot of 'silver particles' fell from his body, all of which were silver marching ants paralyzed by electricity.

"It's a good idea to sneak the marching ants to me in melee combat, and it's a good cover for the past with an impotent rage. It's just that your melee attacks are so spicy that if I keep looking, I'm afraid I'll throw up...... So this little trick, that's the end of it. ”

Link's face changed wildly, and he felt like a clown.

The other party knows that all his actions are in vain, no matter how much he struggles.

If it's just insight into everything, then Link can still endure it.

This guy's mouth is better than his strength, and he has a poisonous tongue everywhere, which makes people collapse.

Link stood in front of the sandpile.

It was in this place that he ended up with Jack.

Right now......

It seems that this is also the place where he will end.

"Looks like you don't have any hole cards."

The man in black gradually walked out of the base camp, the moonlight sprinkled on his body, and Link finally saw the figure of the man in black clearly.

And then......

Link was stunned.

The vicissitudes of life, a straight and delicate black suit.

Isn't this the 'painter' you met in a small hotel?

Link's brain was down, and he never expected that the 'painter' he accidentally met in the small hotel turned out to be a legendary NPC.

Looking at Link's stunned face, the painter seemed to be very useful.

He spread his hands and said, "You seem surprised?" ”

Link was distraught, and had offended him as he tried to remember if he was at the inn.

Whether it was to break the door or pay for the crime, it provoked the other party.

The painter didn't seem to give Link a chance at all, and a sketching pencil suddenly appeared in his hand.

"Do you think a pencil can kill you?"

Link looked at the murderous pencil in the painter's hand and suddenly burst into tears.

The appearance of this pencil is like the first domino to fall, and many memories in Link's mind are emerging from his brain with this pencil, connecting all past memories together to form a complete closed loop.

The corners of Link's mouth curled slightly.

He already knew who the painter in front of him was!

"I don't believe it."

Link is full of confidence.

The abrupt shift also caught the painter's attention.

"I don't know where you suddenly got your confidence, but soon this place will become your grave......"

The words were still drifting, but the painter was already in front of Link in an instant, and he pushed Link down on the sand.

At the same time, Link also asked a sentence at the fastest speed in his life.

"Martha, there is still salvation!"

The picture freezes suddenly.

The painter's pencil was already pressed against Link's chin, and with a slight push, it would penetrate Link's jaw.

Link also held a sharp dagger in his hand, which was pressed against the painter's heart.

The painter's face was no longer as relaxed as before, and he gritted his teeth and asked, "Say, how do you know!?" ”

Link didn't answer, but asked, "So what's it now?" ”

The painter slowly withdrew his pencil, and Link put away his dagger.

"This time, you win!"

Knowing the identity of the other party, Link's mentality also changed subtly, and he began to 'counterattack'.

"Actually, you don't really want to kill me, you just want to test my strength and details, right?"

The painter put the pencil in the chest pocket of his suit and his expression was cold: "You really want to kill you now." ”

Link could tell it was true.

"Actually, your wife is indeed still saved!" Link said seriously.

The Painter, an NPC that does not exist during the game's Open Beta.

An NPC that has died, but has all kinds of legendary stories, and even the main quest of Wasteland is also caused by this person in front of him.

Players in previous lives on Waster would often hear a high-level NPC mention a person named 'John' when working on the main quest.

So the plot party of the game forum began to collect all kinds of things about 'John', collected them, and finally put them together into a complete story.

It is no exaggeration to say.

Without this man in front of you, there would be no main line of Wasteland.

A man who only hears his voice and doesn't see his people, a man who impresses all male players and earns enough tears for female players.

"No, it's hopeless."

The painter's tone was instantly deflated and full of vicissitudes.
