Chapter 6 Choices
The light curtain was formed by the convergence of dots of fluorescence, and the pale cyan light flickered, but did not spread in the slightest, as if it was just an ordinary picture scroll in front of him, and the surrounding environment was still dim.
"See?" Ji Qiu pressed the man's neck in the direction of the scroll and asked.
"See what?" The man replied with some inexplicability.
"......" Ji Qiu didn't speak, his right hand was wrapped and twisted, and he broke the man's arm joint with a click, and then hit him with a heavy elbow on the back of his neck, breaking his central nervous system.
After groping around with the man for a while, Ji Qiu turned out a string of worn-out keys and a Nokia, then turned around and walked slowly to the light curtain.
"My people won't let your ...... go," the man said with the corner of his eye slanting in Ji Qiu's direction, gritting his teeth. Even with the vampire's powerful recovery power, the vital parts of the spine were damaged, and his body would not be able to move for a while.
"I'm almost tired of hearing that." Ji Qiu knocked on the light curtain with his hand, it felt like a touch screen on the water, and pressed hard, and the ripple-like lines spread out from the contact point, but his fingers could not pass through smoothly. He touched his chin and looked at the two options in front of him, thinking in thought.
The task at hand seemed to be trying to get him to choose a side, but as far as his status as a human and a witcher was concerned, it was a bad choice for either side, let alone if he ruined the good things of the other side.
"Let me offend all the two camps first, reveal my identity at the same time, and then let me choose, is this a disguised enhancement difficulty......" He frowned, and before he had time to think about it, he saw the light curtain suddenly flicker, and then a number of '20' appeared below the option, and soon began to count down.
"Since the reincarnator has not acted for a long time, in view of the time regulations, the system will automatically make a probability selection after 20 seconds."
"!"
The sudden appearance of the time limit disrupted Ji Qiu's originally somewhat relaxed demeanor, his eyes scanned the screen, and his brain was running rapidly.
The first task, to completely eliminate the werewolf camp, seems to be a simple task, but it is quite difficult to actually act. The combat power of werewolves Ji Qiu has seen in the original world, even in an ordinary state, their ** quality is much stronger than that of ordinary vampires, and when the moon is full, it is almost an almost impossible task to eliminate them. The epidermal defense like body armor, the swift action and external violence of more than ten meters, coupled with the terrifying vitality of stopping bleeding and scarring within a few seconds of the wound, this near-immortal monster is like a nightmare in the original world.
Although the battle just now made Ji Qiu discover that the werewolves in this world do not have such a strong recovery ability, and due to the death of the wolf king, the werewolves have been suppressed by vampires for centuries, but seeing that they have not been eliminated for so many years, you can know how difficult this group of beasts is. With the strength of Ji Qiu alone, it will definitely not be able to accomplish it. And the idea of burying or hiding the identity of the guy in front of him and joining the vampire camp, due to their various endless tracking abilities and strong exclusivity, in Ji Qiu's memory, several people who tried to fish in such troubled waters ended up dying miserably. Of course, these are the stories of the original world, and as for whether the vampires in this world have these tracking abilities, Ji Qiu has no intention of trying.
The second mission, helping the werewolves defeat the vampires and prevent the resurrection of Victor, one of the three elders, is far easier than eliminating the werewolves in Ji Qiu's opinion. After all, the so-called elder should be dormant at this time, and it is usually easier to 'defeat' than 'to eliminate'. However, simplicity is also relative, there is no doubt that the werewolf who escaped just now must have passed on Ji Qiu's information, even if it is not transmitted, it is impossible to join the opposing camp just because of his human identity. In other words, no matter which side he chooses, Ji Qiu is in a situation of fighting alone, the difference is just the difficulty of the task.
He paused, and finally pressed the second option when the number counted down to '3'.
"Selected Complete"
"Task 3 Change Complete"
"Mission 3: Help the Richin thwart the vampire's plans, prevent the transfer of power, and awaken Victor."
As the subtitles were converted, the light curtain quickly shrank and closed like a picture scroll, and slowly disappeared into the air.
Boom!
The sound of hard objects knocking came from a distance, accompanied by bursts of noisy shouts, Ji Qiu squinted, as if he saw a figure in a black police uniform standing on the edge of the platform and constantly commanding something.
Ji Qiu thought for a moment, turned around and walked in front of the man.
"Kill me......" the man said loudly, trying to puff up his head.
Ji Qiu smiled, this kind of purebred vampire warrior is usually the elite of various families, even if he doesn't have in-depth contact with the core, he must know more than that. This guy still has a lot of information to dig up, including the distribution of vampire camps and various hidden resources, etc., all of which can be slowly knocked out. Of course, the premise is that you must avoid the search of your companions.
Ji Qiu looked around at the situation, then quickly bent down, put his hands on the man's head up and down, overlapped hard, and twisted the man's neck with a click, and then grabbed one of his legs and dragged him slowly to the depths of the subway.
The sound of clothes rubbing echoed through the empty railway, and after walking for about a few hundred meters, a small branch road appeared in the corner of the wall on the right side of the railway.
It was a black passage about three or four meters wide, stretching straight ahead, and a trace of cold wind blew out of it, carrying a damp smell. If the light in the railroad is dim, then the road is completely dark. Looking out, the light only stayed not far from the crossing, and the deeper places were in a state of not being able to see the five fingers.
Ji Qiu thought about it, took out his mobile phone with his right hand, and dragged the man in.
If he was correct, the other side of the road was supposed to be a sewer adjacent to the subway entrance, and the water flow in the ditch was much more drastic due to the heavy rain that had just fallen, which also caused the walls around the road to feel warm and wet.
With the faint light of the mobile phone screen, Ji Qiu walked forward for dozens of meters, and after turning a corner, he suddenly sniffed, then frowned and stopped.
In the surrounding air, there was a strange smell mixed with it, like fermented salted fish, coming from the front along with the changing direction of the wind.
"It's ......"
"The smell of carrion," the man said weakly, blinking. He was forcibly dragged for several hundred meters after Ji Qiu broke his neck, stumbling and stumbling in the middle of all kinds of bumps, even with the strong vitality of the vampire elite, at this time, he felt a tingle in his bones, and there was a feeling of being out of breath.
, dragging him on.
As you move forward, the sound of ticking water gradually becomes closer and closer, and there are some traces of sewer animals around.
Chirping!
A palm-sized rat scurried past the two of them, its slender tail almost sweeping the man's mouth.
"If you don't want to die, stop......" The man said in a low voice, his mouth suddenly opened.
"Huh?" Ji Qiu turned his head suspiciously.
"It's full of the smell of beasts." He inhaled, his eyes constantly scanning the walls around him.
"What do you want to say?"
"Don't you understand?" The man grinned, "This seems to be one of their designated nests, and according to the concentration of the breath, there are at least twenty ...... No, more than thirty Richin hounds. ”
“…… Interesting," Ji Qiu squatted beside him and looked him in the eye, "But how do I know if what you said is true or false?" ”
"You'd better not believe it. Then they can catch you, torture you, torture you, and tear your throat open with their claws, tearing your whole body to pieces. The man laughed silently, revealing a ghostly expression, his eyes like the purest grey gems, still shining with a striking brilliance in the darkness.
"Then why do you say it, wouldn't it be nice for me to be caught by them?" Ji Qiu narrowed his eyes: "It seems that you don't want to die yet." Reaching out and grabbing him by the collar, he pressed his entire cheek against the wall.
"How about we make a deal?"
