Chapter 20: Exposure
"We intend to act with you. Didn't you say that the one named Liu Ke could pick the lock? Then let's go to him together. What is surprising is that Li Chenyin actually took the initiative to act with Lu Qing and the others.
After she said this, even Shan Hongwei glanced at her in surprise. Li Chenyin was unmoved, just whispered something in his ear.
As he spoke, everyone noticed that Shan Hongwei's gaze was firmly locked on Lu Qing, and there was no other superfluous expression on his cold face, and it was difficult for people to guess what tricks the two had secretly discussed.
"This woman is very cunning, she must be thinking about something." Dai Shikai doesn't have a good impression of Li Chenyin, although he likes to communicate with smart people, but this woman is obviously a little annoying, and he is still angry about the other party's extortion in the orphan grudge mission, and she also indirectly killed Fan Huan.
Therefore, after seeing the two discussing in a low voice, Dai Shikai impatiently raised his voice: "Can't you put something on the table and say it?" What do you say in front of us? Isn't there something unspeakable about the couple? ”
His tone was full of malice, but the other party was not provoked by it. Li Chenyin glanced at Yang Yuenan and called her to the front.
"Miss Li, what are you looking for me?" Yang Yuenan's eyes flickered, looking like he had done something wrong, and he was a little weak-hearted. Li Chenyin didn't pay attention to her, but suddenly dragged the other party with a tough attitude, and walked quickly towards Lu Qing and the others.
When walking towards them, Li Chenyin finally spoke: "This girl is a spy arranged by you." ”
Lu Qing's expression was unmoved, but Yang Yuenan showed a shocked look. As Li Chenyin said, as early as after returning from the last regional mission, the eyeliner hidden in the first area arranged by Lu Qing found him and proposed cooperation.
"Now that you have chosen to betray, there is no need to stay with us." Li Chenyin coldly grabbed Yang Yuenan's slender arm, and then pushed her in front of Lu Qing and the others.
Dai Shikai quickly supported the other party, Yang Yuenan is not very old, and he is not good at these intrigues. The reason why she chose to compromise was just to seek more means of self-preservation. She thanked Dai Shikai gratefully, and then explained with a red face: "Miss Li, I didn't do anything excessive...... I just want to live. ”
"yes, what are you pretending to be here? It's as if your man didn't stuff a spy on us, and what you're saying now is just righteous, disgusting. Dai Shikai saw that Yang Yuenan looked cramped, and couldn't help but say a few more words for her, one was to fight the grievances, and the other was to vent the dissatisfaction in his heart.
Only Lu Qing's eyes flashed with strange confusion, as if he was extremely puzzled by what had just happened. It's not because Yang Yuenan's identity was exposed, he was just strange, with Li Chenyin's personality, what he did just now was really unbelievable.
This woman has always been indifferent to the lives and deaths of others, and she is used to being alone, let alone teamwork.
Is it because he is with Shan Hongwei that he will be interested in the first district?
That's even more unlikely.
Shan Hongwei himself is just as cruel and ruthless, these two people are a match made in heaven in a sense, they can't tolerate anyone else except themselves and each other in their eyes, how can they care so much about a little traitor?
Wrong.
Lu Qing looked at Shan Hongwei who was not far away, but saw that the other party pulled out the gun from his waist at a very fast speed.
At the same time, Li Chenyin was no longer as calm as before, but showed an anxious expression. She pushed the crowd in front of her and said loudly, "Hurry up!" ”
"Bang"
Shan Hongwei shot at his teammates who were half-leaning against the wall to rest.
All this happened so quickly that Dai Shikai was taken off guard. Yin Xiong was also startled, and immediately reacted, and ran in the direction where Lu Qing and the others were with his bag on his back.
And He Hongfei, who was shot, was lying on the ground, but he did not die.
Everyone heard a strange sound of "purr" coming from his throat, and when he raised his head again, Lu Qing noticed that the piece of "He Hongfei's" neck had become elastic skin like rubber, and his limbs had also undergone visible changes to the naked eye, his feet were like hooves, and his hands had sharp claws - that was the monster that attacked Dong Lin and the others last night!
"He Hongfei has long since died, and that is the ghoul disguised." Li Chenyin's face turned pale, and he shouted to Shan Hongwei: "Don't dwell on it for too long, and don't fight head-on." ”
At this time, the monster was prostrate on the ground, and although most of it still maintained its human form, its claws exposed to everyone's sight still made everyone present quite fearful.
The monster roared and leapt from the ground, and Shan Hongwei turned sideways and dodged the attack beautifully. He. Rolled to the side to distance himself and fired two more shots at the monster "bang" and "bang".
However, he soon discovers that while guns can hurt them, they can't kill them entirely. In order to save bullets, Shan Hongwei threw the gun aside, accelerated and rushed over, kicked hard with the help of the marble pillar on the side, jumped up in mid-air, and kicked the monster in the jaw.
The trained special forces have such great foot strength that they can easily kick a strong man to death with one kick and kick him several meters away. Despite its incredible strength, the monster's fighting skills were horrific, and it tossed on the ground several times in a row, and was kicked far away by Shan Hongwei.
"Damn, is this guy a humanoid weapon?" Even Dai Shikai, who was full of malice towards Shan Hongwei, was speechless in surprise after seeing the scene of the other party fighting with monsters with his bare hands.
The monster roared at Shan Hongwei a few times, then used its limbs together and rushed into the dark chapel at the back of the church at a rapid speed.
Shan Hongwei picked up the backpack and gun, and walked towards everyone without changing his face, Dai Shikai reacted at this time, and said to Li Chenyin with some embarrassment: "You have already recognized the identity of that monster, so you will use the excuse to expose Yang Yuenan's identity and take her away from danger, right?" I'm sorry, you don't remember the villain, just because I don't understand anything, I didn't know how to fart. ”
Li Chenyin didn't take his words to heart, but turned around and asked Shan Hongwei, his eyes full of worry: "It's okay." ”
"Don't worry." Shan Hongwei pinched his eyebrows: "But I still feel a little uncomfortable looking at this monster head-on." If it drags on for a long time, I am afraid that it will have a greater impact and make it difficult for people to concentrate. ”
"That's the most unreasonable thing about the monsters in the Cthulhu mythos. Ordinary people who encounter them head-on will suffer varying degrees of mental impact. Li Chenyin sighed, and as soon as her words fell, Dai Shikai's eyes instantly lit up: "!" You, you mean this mission type, is the Cthulhu Mythos?! ”
Like Liu Ke, on this side, Li Chenyin and Dai Shikai have a little understanding of the Cthulhu Mythos. Among them, Li Chenyin's knowledge reserve is more abundant, Dai Shikai only read some related literary works in reality by chance, but because he is not patient, he does not read much.
Therefore, Dai Shikai did not react as sharply as the other two, but only slowly remembered the things about the Cthulhu Mythos under Li Chenyin's suggestion.
The ghoul just now was obviously weakened because he maintained his human form and was injured by surprise. And this kind of monster has extremely high intelligence, knowing that if it continues to fight hard, although it may kill Shan Hongwei and others, it will also suffer higher damage, so it will stop in time and find the right time to escape.
"Then Brother Qing, what you saw last night is this thing." Dai Shikai remembered Lu Qing's performance last night and suddenly realized.
"Let's get out of here, if there are other ghouls, that's bad." Yang Yuenan said eagerly.
"Don't worry, I've observed, this ghoul seems to be afraid of light." Li Chenyin turned his head, looked at the place where Shan Hongwei was fighting with it just now, and continued: "All the props have failed in this mission, if the space is not equipped with some security measures, then I am afraid we will all be wiped out." ”
