Chapter 8: Similarity. Begin

This figure was very careful.

Every movement perfectly matches the light and shadow, and even the footsteps are integrated into the sound of the wind.

Tick, tick.

On the clock spire on one side of the dome, the hands move second by second, and when the second hand moves in one turn, the minute hand jumps slightly.

Tick.

The sound is not much different from the second hand.

But the figure that approached retreated as if it had been devoured by thunder.

The figure clutched his right hand and forcibly suppressed the screams in his throat until he entered the uninhabited alley.

"You've 'won' again!"

"But I don't believe you'll win every time!"

The figure glanced at the Dome Clock Tower again, and then ran straight in the direction of the Harvest Tavern.

As it approached the Harvest Tavern, the figure reverted to its 'original' form.

Humming again in a pleasant tone.

When the other party pushed the door and walked into the harvest tavern, there were already acquaintances who greeted him.

"Hey, Pol, would you like a drink?"

"No, my points aren't as extravagant as they would be to drink here."

The man named Pol thought about the bar and walked over.

Coincidentally, when he walked past the drunken Lawless, Lawless slipped out of the chair again.

Pol held Lawlessness in his hands.

"Are you a fool?"

Pol, who had been here for a few days, naturally knew how this could be, and while shaking his head and commenting, after setting up the lawlessness, he said to Rachel in the table: "I want a glass of the cheapest honey water, of course, plain water is fine." ”

"Chilled lemonade, please."

The tavern lady said, passing the glass.

Pol held it in his hand as if he had found a treasure, and thanked him again and again: "Thank you." ”

Looking at Pol's appearance, the tavern proprietress frowned, but in the end, she shook her head and said in a voice that only she could hear: "So similar...... How can it be? ”

As she spoke, the tavern lady wiped her glass to herself.

The 'lone wanderer' named Pol is holding a cup, sipping a slightly sweet drink in small sips, and the whole person is extremely engaged.

It seemed that the drink in the cup was the best thing in his life.

When the last drink was gone, Pol politely returned the cup to the tavern hostess, and the whole person narrowed his eyes and thought quietly.

That look, appearance, made the lawless who woke up in a daze shout.

“2、2567。”

……

In the next few days, Qin Ran spent almost a retreat.

He cut off all contact with the huge city, including the address book.

Every day, in addition to the necessary offline, it is to stay in the game, racing against time to use the 'power of dawn', 'power of plague', 'power of demons', 'power of original sin' and 'power of holy thorns' to ignite the arcane runes in the body again and again, dispelling darkness and chaos.

The speed at which the five Force's forces under normal conditions dispel darkness and chaos is really outrageously slow.

Fortunately, Qin Ran was very patient.

Little by little, little by little, he dispersed.

He looked forward to the day when darkness and chaos would be completely dispelled, and it would come sooner.

A week has passed in a flash.

When the cooldown of the dungeon was completed, Qin Ran checked it again and chose to enter.

【Special Dungeon Entry!】 】

【Difficulty Confirmation: 7th Dungeon Difficulty】

……

Familiar words appeared in front of Qin Ran's eyes.

When it was all gone, he was in a room.

The [Red Ghost's Stomach Bag] was at his feet, Qin Ran picked it up, and only then looked around after carrying it on his back.

The bed, the bedside table, the carpet, are old.

The quilt on the bed was lifted, and there was still a trace of warmth.

On the bedside table is a map.

Two slippers were discarded on the carpet.

The room in front of him was not big, and he could see it at a glance, Qin Ran checked the map under the bed, under the carpet, and on the bedside table again, and picked up the map placed on it.

This is a map called Route 12.

One end of the highway connects Qin Ran's relatively familiar Yancheng, and the other end is a very unfamiliar city called 'Lin Cheng'.

Raising his head, Qin Ran looked through the only window in the room at the sign on the side of the road outside.

The big '12' on it tells him where he is.

"On the run?"

Qin Ran chuckled.

Then, take a closer look at the map.

However, what Qin Ran was looking at was not the road to Lin Cheng, but ...... Return to Yancheng.

That's right, it's to return to Yancheng!

With the increase in strength, Qin Ran's attitude towards the 'Piercing Thorn' had already undergone earth-shaking changes, from the initial surprise to the insipidity at the moment.

Even, Qin Ran already had a different idea.

Of course, due to caution and caution, Qin Ran did not forget it.

Qin Ran knew very well why he was able to reach his current level.

Therefore, Qin Ran did not release the fire crow at the first time.

In other quest worlds, the Fire Raven is a very competent Scout, as the natives of those quest worlds don't know anything about the Fire Raven.

But the [Demon City II] in front of you is different.

That's where the fire ravens come from.

Anyone with the slightest insight will know everything about fire crows.

The half-breed frostwolf cubs are similar.

Even if it doesn't come from this dungeon world, with the understanding of demons and half-demons in this dungeon world, the appearance of the half-blood frost wolf cub will also cause vigilance.

Therefore, Qin Ran kept both by his side.

The fire crow stood on the right shoulder, looking left and right, feeling the incomparably familiar atmosphere of his hometown, and excitedly shaking the black crow feathers with a hint of red.

And the mixed-race frost wolf cub circled around Qin Ran's feet, sniffing here and there from time to time, and then, wagging his tail at Qin Ran.

However, in the next moment.

The fiery crow, shaking its feathers, stopped moving, and its eyes, sharper than the eagle, stared at the door.

The mixed-race frost wolf cub was even more crisp, with slightly bent limbs, revealing sharp wolf teeth.

Knock, knock!

"Hello, room service ......"

After the knock on the door, a delicate voice sounded.

It's just that before the sound fell, Qin Ran used the [Winchester's shotgun] to the cat's eye position, and then pulled the trigger.

Rumble!
