294. Showdown
"Ahh How is this possible?! β
Lao Tuo was startled by the sudden appearance of the killer night stalker in front of him, what he didn't see from outsiders was that his eyes flashed a faint green light at that moment, and the next second he returned to normal.
The killer who appeared out of thin air in front of him simply stood upright, and after a few seconds, fine cracks began to appear on the surface of the night stalker's massive body, and as the cracks grew larger, the large man eventually shattered into a pile of rocks scattered all over the ground.
"False...... Fake? β
The strange phenomenon that happened in front of him made Lao Tuo feel unbelievable, and the expression on his face was a little complicated, with panic, doubt, and a faint trace of fear.
"There's a strange thing on the ground."
Ye Xiao pointed to the simple totem on the ground with his finger, attracting Lao Tuo's attention, and the other hand was behind his back......
"Is that some kind of trap?"
Few people know about the 'Totem Trap' skill that can only be taught in the 'Pale Rose' scene, and Lao Tuo, as a player who has died a long time ago and cannot continue to contact the game, naturally has no idea about it.
"It seems that it can only be used to scare people, and it has no offensive ability."
When Ye Xiao said this, out of the corner of his eye, he had already noticed that in the direction behind the side where Lao Tuo was standing, there were three 'wandering spirits' dressed as passers-by with green light flashing in their eyes approaching this side, with a greedy expression on their faces.
He remembered that just now, at the entrance of that T-shaped road, he had been pressed to the ground by these 'geists' and torn and attacked......
Although these 'wandering spirits' were later frightened away by the appearance of the 'Killer Night Stalker', they were still hostile to themselves, and Ye Xiao was immediately secretly vigilant when he saw them again now.
"Don't worry, these spirits were also Light Believers in their lifetimes, and the only difference between them and us is that they are not converted by players."
Lao Tuo noticed Ye Xiao's nervousness, and hurriedly reassured: "The reason why they attacked you just now was also because they found that the camp you belonged to was different from them, and now you will be fine with me." β
Sure enough, as Lao Tuo said, these 'wandering spirits' did not stop when they passed in front of Ye Xiao and Lao Tuo, but turned their heads and walked straight into the alley in front of them.
"Let's go, there shouldn't be any pitfalls on this path."
Seeing that the few 'wandering spirits' who temporarily played the role of 'sappers' had already walked out of the alley, Lao Tuocai hurriedly urged Ye Xiao to continue walking.
β¦β¦
Dark clouds rolled in the sky, and thunder was blowing.
"Where are we going?"
Under the guidance of Lao Tuo, the two walked out of the alley and entered a darker and deeper alley, Ye Xiao found for the first time that there were so many deep alleys near the place where he lived before he crossed?
"It's right ahead, and when we get there, we're absolutely safe."
The old man replied without replying, and the two continued to walk forward for about three or four minutes, and finally reached the bottom of this narrow alley.
After walking out of the exit at the other end of the alley, he saw an auditorium in front of him whose walls were crawling with dark green plants and looked retro, Ye Xiao still had some impressions of this building, because this auditorium has always been used as an elderly activity center for a happy community.
Remember...... This auditorium is only about 200 meters away from the happy community, why did you walk so far this time?
Ye Xiao was puzzled in his heart, noticing that the three 'wandering spirits' who had explored their way before had pushed open the door of the auditorium and entered, and the direction of Lao Tuo's guidance was undoubtedly that place, Ye Xiao couldn't help but ask a little uneasily: "Do we want to go in too?" β
"This is a refuge in the Soul Street, where the power of all believers' spirits can be resisted by that evil monster, you can rest assured, there is no safer place in the Soul Street."
While explaining, Lao Tuo walked over a little abnormally and hooked Ye Xiao's shoulders with his hand, leading Ye Xiao to the door of the auditorium.
After pushing open the door of the auditorium, Ye Xiao noticed that the benches in the auditorium were already full of former 'neighbors', and when they entered the auditorium, these people sitting on the benches looked back one after another, their eyes were still as dull and empty as Ye Xiao had seen on the small street before, and they also glowed with green light.
The landlord, Uncle Zhang, was in the queue, and the expression on his face when he looked at Ye Xiao looked strange and strange, not at all like he had known Ye Xiao for many years.
This is......
Ye Xiao wanted to turn around and ask Lao Tuo, but found that the three passers-by had already pressed his shoulders with their hands and carried his wrists behind him.
"What the hell is going on?"
Lao Tuo had a cold face, deaf to Ye Xiao's question, and just turned around and glanced at the three passers-by.
After the three 'wandering spirits' received the order, they suppressed Ye Xiao, who was struggling to resist, and escorted Ye Xiao to the front stage of the auditorium as if he were escorting a prisoner.
When he walked up the steps of the stage, several sturdy 'wandering spirits' had already pushed out a cross-shaped shelf, which was fixed in the center of the stage, and then hurriedly tied Ye Xiao to the cross.
Under the stage, the 'neighbors' sitting on the benches all made noise when they saw Ye Xiao being tied up, and their faces were full of ecstatic expressions, and some of them were still dancing in their positions, as if they were celebrating some victory.
After a while, as he changed his outfit, and Lao Tuo, who was already wearing a white cloak and a hood, walked from the back to the front desk, the noise in the auditorium finally stopped, and the 'wandering spirits' on the benches all widened their green eyes, greedily watching every move on the stage.
β¦β¦
"You must be full of questions about this, right? Despicable dark believers! β
Lao Tuo looked at the restrained Ye Xiao with a victor's pride, with a cruel sneer on the corner of his mouth, "It feels very uncomfortable to be betrayed by someone you trust, right?" I told you a long time ago, in the Soul Street, don't believe what you see and what you hear, you don't take it to heart. β
"What do you want to do? What's going on here? β
Ye Xiao struggled a few times with a frightened face, the ropes on the cross were tied very tightly, and he couldn't do anything with his weak otaku body.
"Hey, hey, hey...... Nothing, I just want to get something from youβsomething that will allow me to go back from here! β
Lao Tuo's eyes began to glow with green, which made him look like the 'spirits' sitting underneath.
"I've been curious about you since you came here."
Lao Tuo's every move now is already full of sacred meaning, as if he is holding a solemn ceremony.
"Obviously you have a damn dark blood flowing through your body, why did you come to this resting place that only belongs to the 'Light Believer'?
Although I haven't been able to figure this out until now, as I got to know you up close and personal, I suddenly made a very unexpected discovery......
I have discovered that there is not only a lowly and dirty dark blood in you, but a pure energy that belongs only to the camp of light, which lurks in the depths of your soul...... If my senses are not wrong, that fluctuating energy comes from the 'Source of Light' that the Lord of Light's 'Dawn' has spent tens of thousands of years condensing with divine power! β
Lao Tuo said this, with a fanatical and greedy expression on his face.
"I don't know how a nobody like you obtained this rare treasure, but I clearly know that I need it very much, it must be mine, and only with it can I break through this cage that has imprisoned me for tens of thousands of years and return to the extreme world!"
Listening to the other party's words, Ye Xiao fell into a short contemplation.
The only thing that can be linked to the light camp in him should be the remnant soul of the dark hunter 'Sovey', who was once the God King of Will. As for something like the Source of Light, although Ye Xiao had heard of it for the first time, he didn't have to guess to know that this thing must have entered his body along with the Dark Hunter.
"So...... You weren't actually a boss from the beginning, who are you? β
If it was really according to Lao Tuo's statement before, how long had he been dead? He was a 'newcomer' at most in 'Wandering Soul Street', so how could he say something like 'the cage that imprisoned me for tens of thousands ......of years'?
At this moment of showdown, Ye Xiao was unusually not the slightest panic, and after taking a deep breath, he began to ask the other party's true identity in a calm and calm tone.
"Oh? Did you not find out about this until now? Then you're really sluggish enough. β
A sneering smile appeared on 'Lao Tuo''s face, and his face suddenly began to distort and change, switching from 'Lao Tuo''s appearance to 'Landlord Lao Zhang''s face.
"I'm Lao Tuo, but not quite, if you have to define it, then I'm every wandering spirit here!"
'Landlord Lao Zhang' said as he began to switch between various faces, including faces that Ye Xiao knew, and there were many that Ye Xiao didn't know.
"I'm Wandering Street!"
