Chapter 90: Back to the hand
After Lin Dong drilled along the wall, he came to a new open place.
It's just that just like over there, the pipes here are still intricate, and people can't help but feel a tingling of their scalp at a glance.
He quickly clicked on the location function on his watch and marked it so that he wouldn't get lost between these pipes.
After doing all this, Lin Dong dared to follow the pipeline and go to the depths.
The waterworks has been under construction for some years.
When Tianyu City was still poor, this waterworks was one of the first projects invested and built by the military department.
But as time passed, the Empire's technology also changed with each passing day, and many of the previous equipment and pipes were replaced by new ones before they could be used for two years!
And if these pipelines are to be dismantled collectively, it will cost a lot of manpower and material resources, and it will be a bit unworthwhile in any case.
Over time, these pipes piled up more and more, and eventually formed a complex underground network under the entire Tianyu City.
This is also the reason why Lin Dong did not choose to chase the black shadow in the first place, but first ordered Chen Xi to find the person in charge to turn off all the water pipes that are connected!
These pipes extend in all directions, connecting from house to house.
If the black shadow fled in the direction of these pipes, it would be tantamount to a fool's dream to find them again!
So, no matter what, I have to fix that thing now, so as not to have too many dreams at night!
But at the same time, Lin Dong also had a trace of doubt in his heart, the appearance of that black shadow didn't look like a curse mark bearer!
Although it is said that black spell mark runes will appear on the body after being controlled by the curse mark, at least they still retain a human body.
Except for the fact that it looked like a human, it didn't bear any resemblance to humans at all, and I don't know how those spell mark bearers could have made such a thing.
Just as Lin Dong was thinking wildly, suddenly, there was a sound of water droplets falling to the ground in his ears.
Because the surrounding environment is relatively empty, and there is only Lin Dong here, this sound is usually extremely subtle, but it sounds exceptionally clear at this time!
Lin Dong didn't care too much, after all, there were intricate pipes around him, and it should be normal for there to be the sound of water droplets.
But, immediately after that, the second drop, the third drop......
More and more water droplets sounded in Lin Dong's ears, and finally made him realize that something was wrong.
The hand slowly moved to the hilt of the sword, and for the unknown enemy, Lin Dong had always paid twelve points of attention to deal with it.
In addition to his instinct as a soldier for so many years, there is another reason, that is, his biological parents died of momentary negligence towards the enemy!
He listened intently, trying to find out the location of the other person by the drop of water.
But after listening to it for a while, he found that the landing point of this water drop had been revolving around him!
No matter where he goes, the droplets will fall around him, as if the other party has been following him!
Lin Dong frowned slightly, and suddenly seemed to realize something, his body flashed to the side in an instant, and the sword in his hand was pulled out of his waist the moment his body left the place and slashed to the top of his head!
The other party has indeed been following him, and it is lurking above his head.
The spiritual energy in the body poured into the sword, and the blue electric light illuminated the entire originally dark basement at the same time!
The thunder and lightning made a scalp-tingling crackling sound in the air, and at the end of the sword, something similar to a knife qi extended, slashing into the air!
At the moment when the basement was illuminated, Lin Dong really saw a black shadow overhead, it was the guy who had escaped just now!
As if sensing the danger coming, the black shadow split into several strands of black liquid at the first time, and fell to the ground, just in time to dodge Lin Dong's blow!
As soon as he landed, the black shadow condensed into a human figure again, blocking the way when Lin Dong came.
The positions of the two sides were inadvertently kept at a distance of about five meters, so that no matter whether Lin Dong chose to attack or escape, it could react at the first time!
Obviously, this was calculated in advance by the other party
"It's cunning!"
Lin Dong snorted coldly and began to turn the spiritual energy in his body, and the thoughts in his mind were also spinning rapidly, thinking of ways to deal with it.
He admits that he underestimated this guy's IQ too much before.
He didn't treat this black shadow as a human being from the beginning, so naturally he didn't consider that the other party would use stratagems to calculate himself.
But now it seems that the other party is not as brainless as he imagined.
This guy obviously planned to lure himself here to solve it from the beginning, after all, in this kind of small space, the strength that a longer weapon like the Taidao can exert is greatly reduced!
In addition, he is the only one here, and it is not impossible to kill Lin Dong by taking advantage of the terrain and the characteristics of darkness!
However, it miscalculated one thing!
Even if Lin Dong doesn't use a knife, his own combat effectiveness is not much worse!
He put the knife into the scabbard, took out a folding knife for self-defense from the cuff, and without saying a word, stabbed at the black shadow!
However, when the black shadow saw Lin Dong's attack, he didn't dodge or dodge, as if he didn't take his attack seriously at all!
As it turns out, it really doesn't have to worry either!
At the moment when the dagger in Lin Dong's hand was about to stab the black shadow, the same situation appeared as just now, and the dagger passed directly through the black shadow's body, taking Lin Dong with him!
It's as if that guy is just a puff of air that can't be touched!
A strange smile appeared on the black shadow's face again, and the moment the other party's body staggered past itself, it once again condensed its right hand into a sharp knife and stabbed towards Lin Dong behind him!
However, this time, Lin Dong was prepared, and the moment the dagger passed through the other party's body, Lin Dong came at the first time
Dig it back, hold the dagger behind your back, and stab it horizontally into the back of the black shadow!
Since the other party knows how to dodge his own attack, it means that his attack can still threaten this guy.
It's just that because of the particularity of the body, I just escaped it!
He didn't believe that this guy had escaped the first time and could have escaped the second time!
With this stab, Lin Dong and the black shadow attacked each other almost at the same time!
He didn't choose to use the dagger to block the opponent's attack, but chose to fight to the death! Take a look at the latest chapter of "About My Reincarnation as a Cultivator" and read it for free for the first time.
