The high-level spirit beast was actually the guardian of the map, and this news suddenly made Li Ming feel very surprised.

And the boss who disappeared inexplicably, should he really master a special hidden map channel?

"I don't underestimate me, we're also old professional players for more than a few years, I don't say it on the official website, but we have internal information." Fan Hua said with a smile.

In fact, his information is all obtained from major game groups, and these materials are not officially introduced, but players have players' methods, some through their own experience, some through careful observation, and some directly from the official channels of the background information.

Don't say anything about game balance or data secrecy, this kind of information that is not particularly secret, someone will always be able to get their hands on it......

"What exactly does Map Guardian mean?" Li Ming asked curiously.

"Listen to them, the bosses above the level of spirit beasts have the right to wander around the map, and the refresh area is not fixed after they are killed, and the spirit beast-level bosses are rarely used as task bosses, they are pure wild spirit beasts, guys who absorb the spiritual power of heaven and earth to improve their strength, and the demon snake spirit beasts we encountered in Huangsha Town are just exceptions. The so-called map guardian means that these bosses who have reached the strength of spirit beasts have a territory of their own cultivation, where they are the masters. Fan Hua said.

"Spirit beasts have their own territory......" Li Ming's eyes lit up, so the guy who disappeared must have hid in his own territory.

"Yes, it is said that spirit beasts can only protect their own safety on their own territory, continue to improve their strength, and reach the strength of heavenly beasts or even divine beasts, of course, it will take a long time, so spirit beasts pay great attention to protecting themselves." Fan Hua said.

"The spirit beast is as smart as a human...... Li Ming said with a smile.

"Don't underestimate spirit beasts, they really have a certain IQ." Fan Hua said.

"That's it......" Li Ming's heart moved, the contract beast BOSS can get the spirit service of the high-grade foreign spirit, then if the contract spirit beast is contracted, it must have the spirit service of the demon spirit quality, according to the spirit attendant administrator, the spirit of the demon spirit quality has a considerable IQ, is this the same reason?

"The high-level spirit beast you have discovered, it is almost close to the strength of the heavenly beast! With this kind of strength spirit beast, I'm afraid that even if the players of the four major alliances are gathered now, they may not be able to deal with it. Fan Hua said.

"I didn't think I could deal with this spirit beast, I just wanted to know where it was hiding." Li Ming said with a smile.

"Now that you've discovered a high-level spirit beast, let's go take a look tomorrow." Fan Hua nodded.

"No, I'm going to go online after 0:00 tonight, and I'm sure to get the real situation from the fisherman." Li Ming said without giving up.

"You can't continue the conversation with him now, how can you get a clue?" Fan Hua asked.

"There must be some other quest props needed to make the angler tell the truth." Li Ming pondered.

"Okay, you can try it again at night, but don't provoke the spirit beast, you will find death if you go alone." Fan Hua warned.

"Got it." Li Ming nodded, snuffed out the cigarette butt, and then returned to the room to take a bath......

After taking a quick shower, the time was already 0:15, and he hurriedly walked out of the door and entered the small hall.

Fan Hua didn't know when he went back to the room to rest, and the light in the small hall was very quiet.

Li Ming turned on a small light, opened the control cabin, and continued to log in to the game world......

If he hadn't figured out the secret of the fisherman, he wouldn't have been able to sleep tonight.

Swish!

The dark lakeside light flashed, white pillars of light fell from the sky, and Li Ming appeared in the virtual world.

After the pillar of light dissipated, the scene in front of him suddenly made Li Ming's eyes straighten for a while......

Because he was surprised to find that the back of the fisherman who was sitting there quietly fishing not long ago on the fishing platform not far away has now become a pool of blood!

The hermit fisherman just fell in a pool of blood, and there was a shocking blood mark in his throat!

Yes...... He's dead?

Li Ming's eyes straightened, he was only offline for less than half an hour, and when he came back, he only saw the corpse of the NPC......

And this corpse has not been refreshed, is it a tragedy that just happened?

What's going on......

Li Ming was frightened in his heart, and looked around vigilantly, in the quiet night, there was no movement, the murderer had already left, and a pair of blood-colored footprints disappeared into the distance along the lakeside!

It's over, the angler has also been killed, isn't the quest clue all broken?

Li Ming walked to the platform speechlessly, the setting of this task really made him scared, the fishing man lived in seclusion here for 30 years without being killed, and he just found him and caused a bloody case, what is going on?

Walking to the platform, he bent down to check on the body of the fisherman, and found that he still had residual warmth on his body, and he lay on his side on the ground with a look of surprise, as if he had been killed by someone close to his back and cutting his throat.

And his clothes are disheveled, as if he has been examined......

The murderer also seems to be looking for something!

It seems that the murderer is also involved in the bloody case of the Tibetan Sword Cottage, in order to obtain some evidence in the hands of the fisherman.

Perhaps it is because of the existence of this evidence that the hermit is reluctant to tell the truth, thinking that he can threaten the other party and ensure his safety by relying on the evidence.

But Li Ming's arrival made the other party impatient......

Definitely......

Li Ming thought in his heart, the only doubt now is whether the person who killed the fisherman took the evidence?

Helplessly looked at the body of the fisherman lying on the ground, now that the person is also dead, the whole clue is completely broken!

The only person who knows the information about the fishing man is now General Chengnan and himself, it should not be General Chengnan who is secretly calculating, otherwise he will become the first object of suspicion.

Suddenly, Li Ming was surprised to find that although the angler was lying there, a finger stretched out from his right hand, which seemed to be alluding to something......

The direction of the finger is the lake ahead, and the fishing rod is still hanging from the shore.

Seeing this situation, Li Ming was suddenly pleasantly surprised.

Li Ming suddenly remembered what the fisherman had said, he wouldn't tell the secret no matter what, unless he was breathing!

And now that he has lost his breath, he has personally pointed out the secret......

The angler has sensed the arrival of an enemy behind him, and knows that his life is not in danger, so he points out the location of the hidden secret when he is dying!

Either a fishing rod or the bottom of the lake.

Li Ming was so excited that he quickly reached out and picked up the fishing rod and examined it carefully.

This fishing rod is made of green bamboo, the bamboo is hollow, and there is nothing in it, presumably the killer must have checked it.

The rod was fine, and even the long line was withdrawn from the water, and nothing unusual was found.

The place where the things were hidden must have been only at the bottom of the lake, Li Ming was about to jump into the lake to check, but he found that two lines of blood-red footprints on the platform stretched into the distance by the lake, which made him stop his action immediately.

The blood marks on the killer's feet are only sticky because he jumped into the bottom of the lake after killing the angler, so the bottom of the lake must have been checked.

Li Ming's eyes looked at the fishing rod again, reached out and picked up the fishing rod and rubbed it carefully, trying to find the secret, and when his palm touched the tip of the fishing rod, he suddenly felt a special touch.

In front of the fishing rod, there are countless small characters engraved densely......
