Chapter 30: Dead Silence: Soul Tracking

"What to say." Lu Yu stood at the entrance of the tunnel and looked in with empty eyes. It's really bottomless, maybe it's still a labyrinth full of forks in the road, and you can't get out when you walk in.

Naou rolled up her sleeves with a cold face: "What else can I say, Xiaowen was arrested, and now there are no other clues, so I can only follow." ”

She looked at the tunnel again, and whispered to herself, "Maybe it's a labyrinth inside...... That's where 'that skill' can be used. ”

"It's not necessarily the only way." Seth put away the Blue Star Shimmering Sword and said thoughtfully, "According to what Brother Yu said before, the base camp of the puppet is under the theater in the town, which is a downward tunnel, and Xiaowen may have been brought there through the tunnel. We can go straight to the ground. If you move quickly, you will have a chance to intercept them in front. ”

"Makes sense." Lu Yu nodded, "If you encounter anything on the ground, there is room to dodge, and your weapon can also be used." It's just that I'm afraid ......."

He was only halfway through his sentence when he vaguely heard the voices of several people talking outside. "Is the boss there? I'm a police officer, and someone reported that they heard the sound of a fight here...... "One of the deep voices was moving as he spoke, and it seemed that he was looking for people all over the restaurant, and it seemed that it was a matter of minutes to push the door directly into the kitchen.

"It's really coming. It's really amazing, and it directly blocks the road outside. Lu Yu was speechless. Flesh and blood are flying inside now, and they look like they are occupied by a terrifying murderer, no matter who pushes the door in and sees it, they will be arrested on the spot as major suspects, ah no, they should be killed on the spot.

Now, even if Zhu Xiaowen wasn't arrested, they could only leave from the tunnel. Without saying a word, Seth bent down and got in. I didn't know what the mechanism was ahead, and I didn't know if I might encounter an enemy, but Seth didn't hesitate to take on the role of pioneer.

"Well done." Lu Yu praised it, and his admiration for this macho man was a little more. He raised his hand and motioned for Nao to go first, it was only natural for a girl to walk in the safest middle, and now that time was pressing, the latter would not shirk it, and bent down to get in.

After Lu Yu was in charge, it was naturally too late to clean the scene, and the door of the cabinet was not closed tightly, so he could only kick the body of the restaurant owner into two pieces to the corners on both sides, and wiped some blood stains to other places, and opened the doors of several cabinets that could be seen a little, so as to confuse the vision and delay it a little. After doing this, the sound also happened to arrive at the door of the kitchen, Lu Yu lightly drilled into the cupboard and closed the door.

"Boss, are you in there? Boss...... it! ”

The person who pushed the door in was also a local veteran police officer who had seen the world, but he was inevitably shocked to see such a bloody scene. He took out his pistol in a panic and was on full alert, stammering into the walkie-talkie on his collar, "Tight! Emergency Support! Something happened at the Marida restaurant! Pai, send two people! No, it's not! Send twenty men! ”

He looked at the blood stains all over the kitchen and added, "Quick! There could be a lot of murderers! ”

The battle in front of him did not dare him to act rashly, and the old officer had been standing nervously at the entrance with his gun against the wall until the support arrived, and he did not even have the courage to take a closer look at the body, let alone search in the kitchen. Lu Yu's actions bought them a lot of extra time to act, which was an unexpected gain for him.

Back to them. The entrance to the tunnel is smaller, but the deeper you go, the wider it becomes. Seth bent over and walked in for a while, and after a few turns he was able to straighten up and walk normally. There was no light in the tunnel, so Seth could only rely on the faint light emitted by the blue star shimmering sword to see the way, and led the two behind him forward. However, he didn't go far when he suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Nao almost bumped into his back and whispered.

"There are too many forks in the road......" Said smiled wryly. At this moment they seemed to be coming to something like a transit station, and in front of them were countless forks in the road leading in different directions, each of which looked similar, and there were no obvious marks on the ground for them to follow, and for a moment he did not know where to go.

Lu Yu is quite optimistic: "It's good, if the police chase here, it is estimated that they will be lost." ”

"You're really going to think positively." Seth had a bitter face, "Aren't we just chasing after us now!" ”

Lu Yu smiled and turned to Naou: "Chase and lose...... That's not necessarily, didn't Sister Nao expect this to be a labyrinth, and she already had the skills to deal with this situation. ”

"The ears are so pointy." Nao gave him a blank look, knowing that he had just been listening to his unconscious self-talk. But now was not the time to think about it, and she had planned to use it, although it was a valuable skill that could only be used once, but it was perfect for use in this situation.

[Name: Soul Tracking]

[Type: Active, one-time use]

【Attributes:Traits】

[Effect: Establish a soul connection with a player or NPC, indicating a route to the opponent's location]

[Consumption: A lot of stamina.] 】

[Requirements: None]

[Explanation: Among all the ways of connection, only the soul connection is the most direct and honest, and it is the only one, and it will never lie to you.] - But the connection between the soul is also extremely fragile, and the slightest blow will be severed, and it will never be connected again. 】

Nao closed her eyes, desperately thinking about Zhu Xiaowen's face, and a thin ray of light came out of her forehead and quickly stretched forward along one of the forks. Lu Yu and Seth glanced at each other, and helped Nao to walk towards the fork in the road one after the other. Nao closed her eyes and followed a few steps, then opened her eyes and said, "I can walk on my own." ”

That being said, Nao felt that her feet were already a little weak, like the feeling that she had just run a few kilometers. Obviously, the activation of this skill has consumed a lot of her physical strength,

At this time, the thin lines were already connected and stable, and even if she no longer deliberately concentrated on thinking, she could feel where Zhu Xiaowen was. But this "soul tracking" also has its limitations, although it is crowned with the principle of the so-called "soul connection", which is a high-end atmosphere, but it seems to have no other function except for perceiving the direction, Nao even Zhu Xiaowen is awake or faint now, there is no way to know what is around, and I don't know if the puppet holding Zhu Xiaowen hostage over there has noticed this thin light.

In short, be sure to hurry up before you find out.

"Let's go." Nao stumbled to quicken her pace, "Maybe they wanted to trap us in this labyrinth, or maybe they didn't guess we could find our way so quickly." If you catch up with them now, you might be able to catch it off guard. ”

Lu Yu wanted to persuade her to take a break and recover a little physical strength after entering the fork in the road, but seeing that she was so determined, he put away this thought. Seth continued to open the way ahead, Lu Yu and Nao followed, and the three of them ran wildly along the soul connection line made by Nao, and they didn't know how long they walked, and finally saw some light ahead.

"Be careful."

Seeing that he was about to walk out of the tunnel, Seth stopped instead. Although he is not an intellectual player like Zhu Xiaowen Naou, he is not a brave and unscrupulous man. This tunnel goes all the way down, and the light that penetrates at this time is not the sunlight from the outside world, and most of them should be their destination, the doll base camp under the town's grand theater.

The thought of the possibility of an enemy ambush near the exit, waiting for them to poke their heads out. Despite having a powerful weapon in his hand, Seth inevitably felt uncertain.

He turned his head and lowered his voice and said, "I don't know what the situation is when I go out, do you want to throw something and test it." ”

"Good idea...... But ......" Nao hesitated.

The three of them looked at each other, and Seth only had the main weapon of the Blue Star Shimmering Sword at hand, so it was naturally impossible to use it as a prop for throwing stones to ask for directions. Nao has the "Peach Wood Spirit Energy Dagger" that was just knocked away and picked up, although it doesn't play a big role in this game, but it's suitable for some situations where there are more ghosts, and it's a pity that it's destroyed here. Lu Yu's inflatable hammer and cotton bracers are worthless, but this kind of light and fluttering thing can't be thrown far with great strength, and it may not have an effect.

"It's good that Xiaowen is here." Seth sighed, "I can let him use that 'scientific search' skill to change something and try it." ”

Speaking of this, Lu Yu had an idea. He also has a manufacturing skill, because it's so wasted that he forgets about it.

"Pulse back at any time!" Lu Yu endured his shame and shouted in a low voice.

[Name: Pulse back at any time]

[Type: Active, Triple Use]

【Attributes:Traits】

[Effect: Creates a 600ml bottle of pulsating drink in your hand]

[Consumption: A little stamina]

[Requirements: Operation F]

[Description: Reply to the state, pulse back at any time!] 】

A small ball of light formed in his hand, and the light dissipated and turned into a bottle of drink in the palm of his hand. This thing has a bit of weight in your hand, and it's enough to throw around. Lu Yu took out the inflatable hammer with his other hand, and after discharging half of the gas, he rolled the lower end into the mouth of the beverage bottle and tied a knot. In this way, a simple inflatable target that has both a little volume and can be thrown is completed.

The three of them glanced at each other, and Lu Yu threw the improvised target towards the exit of the tunnel. Then they listened with bated breath to the sounds outside. The target flew out, the target landed, and there was no movement at all except for the gentle "click" when it landed, and if there was an ambush, the enemy would be too calm.

"I'll go first."

Seeing that the target could not be tested, Lu Yu stretched out his hand to stop the other two and decided to go out to have a look first.

The first person to break out of the tunnel is the most dangerous, and he is naturally aware of the fact that he will be surrounded by enemies in ambush and isolated from his teammates in the tunnel. It's just that the people present are not as good as him in physical fitness and fighting, and now he is still in a state where his physical strength has not recovered, and Seth is the most important combat power and can't take risks at will, and he is the only one who can find out the situation and hold on for a while.

He motioned for the two of them to get ready, then took a deep breath, gathered his feet, and shot out of the tunnel like arrows!
