Chapter 4: Death Comes Suddenly
Without any new information, Qin Ran's guess ended with a question mark.
Qin Ran shook his head slightly, and after throwing the unknown speculation out of his mind, he looked into the distance.
As the footsteps moved, they got closer and closer to 122 Williamcombe Trail, and similarly, the members of the 'Guardians' group guarding 122 Williamcombe Trail became visible.
Two people, one on the left and one on the right.
The outfits are very similar, just a cloak that covers the whole body.
This appearance may seem mysterious in other places, but in a huge city, it is normal.
The first thing a player learns to walk in a huge city is to disguise themselves, even if the face system gives them cover-up.
When Qin Ran saw the two, the two also saw Qin Ran and Kars.
When the two of them turned around at the same time like one person and faced Qin Ran and Kars, the latter's face changed and he let out a low exclamation.
"Oops!"
"It's Brother Prico!"
"Both of them are agile beginners, and they are very good at combining!"
"They joined the 'Guardians' organization very early on, and they are among the most powerful figures in the 'Guardians'."
"Damn it!"
"Did I attract both of them?"
There was undisguised surprise in Kars's voice.
However, Kars was not slow in his movements.
The long sword in his hand was directly drawn, and the whole person was even more on alert.
Although there is a contract with Qin Ran, this does not mean that Kars can just watch from the sidelines.
Or rather, when his own life is at stake, how could Kars be a bystander?
But the next scene made Kars stunned.
"'Dead birds'?"
The older brother of the Prifen brothers on the left spoke first.
"Well, 'Dead Bird'."
The younger brother on the right replied.
Then, after a second of silence, the two turned and left.
It's blazing fast!
The two of them almost took the speed advantage of the agile rank to the extreme, and disappeared without a trace between breaths.
"This, this ......"
Kars looked in the direction in which the Pully brothers had disappeared, completely speechless.
He was like the Puli brother who was facing the great enemy, and he actually fled in the face of Qin Ran?!
It took a few seconds for Kars to come back to his senses and subconsciously turn his head to look at Qin Ran.
There was a shock in his eyes that could not be concealed.
"Not only those ordinary players, but even advanced players don't want to go toe-to-toe with you?"
"'Dead birds'?"
"It's even more terrifying than rumored."
Kars sighed.
Then, the pursued man did not stop, and walked briskly towards his room.
For Kars, there was never a time when he missed his game room as much as he did now, but he didn't forget the trader behind him.
"Happy working together!"
"If we have the chance, I hope we can work together again!"
After Kars finished speaking, he disappeared in place, leaving Qin Ran with a frown.
The Pulley brothers who hurriedly retreated.
made Qin Ran feel that something was wrong.
He didn't think his name had really reached the point of being a ghost.
The two introducers, without even being tempted, retreated?
Moreover, is it still on the premise of giving up great gains?
This is not at all in line with the style of the players.
The vast majority of players, even if they know the danger, will try one or two.
Unless it's true, the gap is so big that people can't see hope.
It is important to know that the Pulley brothers are different from those novice players.
The two of them are Rankers, and he is also Rankers.
Even, on the bright side, he is still a player who has just become an entry, and under normal circumstances, even if the two of them know some of his 'deeds', it is impossible to leave like this.
"Something is wrong!"
"Is there anything I don't know or overlooked?"
Qin Ran frowned and glanced around, but found nothing.
Aside from the occasional member of the Holy Mercy Society, there weren't any players at all, and again, nothing to worry about.
It seems that apart from the Pulley brothers, the 'Guardians' have not sent any other people to make other arrangements.
But the uneasiness in Qin Ran's heart became more and more serious as time passed.
It's as if an invisible enemy lurks around you, with a cold dagger in his hand, gently slicing through your skin.
There were no injuries and no bloodshed.
But the touch is real.
Such a feeling is enough to drive anyone with poor willpower crazy.
Qin Ran's willpower is tenacious enough, but in the face of such a feeling, it is also extremely uncomfortable.
He twisted his neck and adjusted his breathing, trying to calm himself.
Qin Ran was ready to start checking the surroundings again.
It's just that before Qin Ran started again, private messages were already flashing in the communication bar.
Yes, Kars!
In the midst of three rapid sounds, Kars's private message was displayed in front of Qin Ran.
Kars: Help! Help me!
Kars: Be careful!
Kars: Be careful......
……
Even looking at the words, Qin Ran could feel Kars's sense of urgency.
Immediately, Qin Ran replied.
2567: What's wrong?
[Hint: The comms player is dead!] 】
……
Looking at the system prompt, Qin Ran was stunned.
Qin Ran's first reaction was impossible!
Not harming the players in the room has become almost an ironclad, but now someone has done it!
This kind of thing that broke the iron rule made Qin Ran's brows tighten.
Even, my back is a little cold.
Qin Ran couldn't imagine what the huge city would become after the game rooms that were regarded as 'safe houses' became unsafe.
Even more important......
How did the other party do it?
With this doubt, Qin Ran quickly checked the surroundings twice, but he still found nothing.
After glancing at No. 122 Williamcombe Trail again, Qin Ran turned around and left.
Without access to 122 Williamcombe Trail, he had no other choice.
Moreover, even if he were to enter 122 Williamcombe Trail now, it would have no effect.
With the death of Kars.
Everything will be refreshed.
All traces have disappeared.
……
At the Harvest Tavern, at all times, there will always be some 'lone wanderer' staying here.
Some drink here.
Some are chatting here.
Or, both.
And some are watching others drink and chat.
In short, even if it's full, anyone is welcome here.
Especially regular customers.
Therefore, when Qin Ran walked in, some 'lone wanderers' raised their glasses, and after Qin Ran nodded slightly, he walked quickly to the bar.
"You seem to be impatient, huh?"
"It's a rare sight."
"How about a glass of cold lemonade?"
Rachel asked with a smile.
Qin Ran didn't answer, and sent a private message.
2567: Is it possible to kill a player in a game room?
……
Then, Qin Ran saw Rachel's hand picking up the cup and trembled slightly.
