Chapter 19: Soul Eater
"Whoosh!"
Just as Wang Cheng was thinking, Torrent threw a dart and shot it at his chest.
Wang Cheng suddenly had an alarm in his heart, and as soon as he stepped on his footsteps, his body swirled, and the dart missed.
He then stepped in front of Torrent, grabbed Torrent by the collar and lifted him up, staring into his eyes.
"You ......"
Torrent looked into his eyes, goosebumps all over his body.
What kind of eyes are these?
There seems to be no sclera, black as an abyss!
The next moment, a sharp pain came from Torrent's body, and he felt his soul detached from his body.
Through his eyes, his soul "brushed" into the incomparably huge "ball" in Wang Cheng's mind, like a pebble thrown into the lake, and the big ball released a lot of ghostly light.
Immediately after, he felt his head explode, from the inside out, a decades-old memory poured into his mind like a tide.
More than 30 years ago, a baby boy fell to the ground, his memory was blank, and at the age of five or six, he finally retained some ignorant fragmentary memories, and at the age of seven or eight, he began to fight with children of the same age in the neighborhood.
Because of his courage and ruthlessness, and with strength, this child entered the Shuangsha Gang at the age of sixteen, robbing money, gambling, killing, breaking homes, and forcing good people to become prostitutes.
Finally at the age of twenty-eight, he became the fourth person in the Shuangsha Gang, with more than 100 people in his hands, because of his treachery and ferocity, the Jianghu people gave him the nickname "Wild Fox".
Just recently, the gang Changkui, who had mysteriously disappeared for many years, suddenly found him and ordered him to kill himself. He didn't act recklessly, he first caught Xiao Lingtong, who had contact with him, and then lured himself into the bait through Xiao Lingtong, so there was a series of things later.
The memory was very clear, Wang Cheng came back to his senses and said, "This is ...... Memories of torrents? ”
He was a little surprised, how could the torrent of memories get into his head?
"Soul Eater Orb!"
can devour other people's souls and steal other people's memories, only the soul devouring bead in his brain has this ability.
He thought of Bai Normal's words, and wondered in his heart: "Didn't you say that it devoured more than a thousand souls, and it didn't need to be devoured for the time being?" How can it still be devoured? ”
Suddenly, he was excited and said to himself: "Is it because I went out at night?" ”
Bai Normal left him a note before leaving, which told him not to go out at night, the Soul Eater Bead was an evil thing, and the evil qi invaded his body, which would disturb his mind at night.
He quickly checked his body, his arms were not painful, his legs were not sore, he was refreshed, and he was very sure that there was nothing abnormal in his physical function and mental state.
On the contrary, his eyesight has become better, and he can even see the flight trajectory of the insects in the night.
"Night vision?"
Wang Cheng was a little surprised, rubbed his eyes, and he looked at it again.
Gradually, his gaze changed.
10 meters, 20 meters, 30 meters...... A hundred meters, his gaze passed through the night, until he saw a hundred meters away.
He clearly saw a pair of wild cats at the root of the wall at the entrance of the alley a hundred meters away, doing the most primitive rhythm in life.
Wang Cheng retracted his gaze, his heart was shocked, and said, "You can still see such a distance at night, this is the legendary clairvoyance?" ”
It was still night, and his vision was affected, and if it was daytime, he would definitely be able to see farther away, even a kilometer away.
Isn't this clairvoyance?
"I'm the second skill to open the Soul Eater Orb?" Wang Cheng secretly guessed.
Not long ago, he had only gained a "clairvoyance" ability, and now he had obtained the "clairvoyance" ability again, and he seemed to have touched something about the Soul Eater Bead.
"That's not right! It's been a few days since the last time you turned on the "Perspective" skill, why did you turn on the second skill? ”
Wang Cheng was a little puzzled, the time before and after the two skills was too short.
"Is it because you devoured a soul just now?"
But then he thought that even if he devoured the soul, it was only one, and he should not be able to meet the conditions for opening the second skill.
After thinking about it for a while, he had a rough guess in his heart.
The Soul Eater Orb opening skill must be related to Soul Devouring, and the skill can only be activated if the number of souls devoured reaches a certain number.
Previously, the Soul Devouring Bead had devoured thousands of souls in Mixi Town, the number was very large, maybe enough to open two skills, and the soul devoured tonight might just be an introduction.
"Is five hundred souls a hurdle?"
As soon as the thought came to him, he suddenly slapped himself.
How could he have such an idea?
That's 500 lives!
How could he devour people's souls in order to activate the Soul Eater Bead skill?
Thinking back to what he did just now, no matter how you look at it, it reveals weirdness.
Did he make it?
Cheng Michael Wang, dangerous, dancing, why don't you go to heaven?
He did have a crush on Michael Jackson for a while, and he imitated it, but he still couldn't let him perform on that occasion.
Wang Cheng looked at the torrent that was completely dead in his hand and walked back with him.
Back in the courtyard, Wang Cheng lifted the manhole cover, and sure enough, he saw a person hanging below, tightly tied by ropes, and his mouth was blocked.
As soon as he saw that the lid was lifted, the people inside struggled violently, and Wang Cheng immediately pulled him out.
Xiao Lingtong had a cloak, his face was blue and purple, there were blood stains on the corners of his mouth, and there were many footprints on his clothes, so he was obviously tortured a lot.
Wang Cheng untied him, and he immediately began to complain: "the Shuangsha Gang, how did Lao Tzu offend them?" Look at how they beat Lao Tzu? ”
"Here! Here! And here! ”
He pointed to his body, his eyes suddenly noticed the corpse on the ground, and said, "...... All dead? ”
Wang Cheng nodded.
Xiao Lingdao: "I'm really sorry, I still asked you to save me, I haven't inquired about Yang Si yet." ”
Wang Cheng waved his hand and said, "There is no need to inquire about Yang Si's affairs anymore. ”
He has always been cautious in doing things, and he will not put his eggs in one basket, Xiao Lingtong did not show up in the morning, so he personally went to the mud alley to learn about Yang Si's news.
He suddenly stared at Xiao Lingtong and said in a deep voice: "Did you say those questions I asked you?" ”
As he said this, he reached out and poked twice at the upper right of Xiao Lingtong's abdomen.
Xiao Lingtong immediately sweated out of pain, and called "evil door" in his heart!
When did Wang Cheng poison him? Why didn't he notice it at all?
He didn't dare to be sloppy, so he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No!" Not really! They didn't come for me! ”
Suddenly, he thought of something and said, "I found out something, the people of the Divine Dart Bureau have contact with the Shuangsha Gang!" ”
"Huh?"
Wang Cheng was taken aback, and the news surprised him very much.
The Divine Dart Bureau and the Twin Evil Gang have always been hostile forces, one is entrenched in the west of the city, and the other is located in the east of the city, the two forces are incompatible, how can there be a connection in private?
Wait a minute!
Wang Cheng suddenly grasped an extremely important clue, which was also what had been bothering him.
He had never understood why he had disguised himself every time he left the game, but the people of the Twin Evil Gang could always find his traces.
This is clearly leaked!
Who knows all about his tracks?
Who else could there be but the people of the Freewalker game?
"Who will leak my tracks?"
Some faces kept flashing in Wang Cheng's mind, but none of them had a good reason.
He went over the torrent's memories again, and an unfamiliar face appeared in his mind.
He was leaking the news!
He wanted to die by himself!
However, this man is not familiar with him, and there is no friction, why does he want to die by himself?
If you die, who will it do you good? And to whom will it be detrimental?
Wang Cheng already had an answer in his heart, as long as he returned to the dart game to confirm, the assassination against himself in the past few days would be revealed!
He handed out a gold bar, patted Xiao Lingtong on the shoulder, and said, "Help me dispose of these corpses, the sooner the better, don't let people find out!" ”
Out of the courtyard, after not walking a few steps, he stopped, and a person appeared at the entrance of the alley blocking his way.
The man was dressed in gray, forty-five or sixteen years old, with a yellow and thin face, and a very obvious scar on the brow bone of his right eye, which had apparently been broken.
It's him again!
Wang Cheng recognized at a glance that this gray-clothed man was the one who shot at him yesterday morning!
He didn't want to be targeted by one person so endlessly, and he didn't want to die an unknown death, so he said to the man in gray for the first time: "We have a grudge? ”
The man in gray said: "No! ”
The voice was hoarse, without any mood fluctuations, Wang Cheng had heard a similar voice, it was a killer, a killing machine that had no feelings.
There is no doubt that the man in front of him is a killing machine without emotion!
"If you don't have a grudge, why do you want to kill me?" Wang Cheng asked again.
The man in gray didn't answer directly, and said in a deep voice: "Show your weapons!" ”
"He's seen my gun!"
Wang Cheng was stunned, it seemed that this person had been here all this time just now, and he had witnessed him shoot and kill several people throughout the whole process.
"Why didn't he make a move just now?"
There is only one explanation, the man in gray is obviously afraid of the gun in his hand!
Wang Cheng stood still, but the gun silently slipped from his sleeve into his hand.
He was about ten meters away from the Grey Man, a very dangerous distance for him, as it was enough for a first-class master to shoot before he could shoot.
In fact, his marksmanship is already very high, but it takes time to raise the gun, aim, and shoot, and the man in gray does not need so many movements, he has already practiced darts like a finger.
Hot weapons are brutal, precise, and powerful, but cold weapons are simple, flexible, and easy to operate.
"Kill!"
Suddenly, Wang Cheng shouted, although it was not as good as Zhu Wei's roar that shook the mountains and forests, but it also made the willow trees on the side tremble slightly.
"Toot!"
Wang Cheng pulled the trigger instantly, but the man in gray seemed unaffected, and he also threw a dart.
A golden light flashed in front of the gray-clothed man's eyes, coming straight to his eyebrows, and he turned his head almost reflexively, but how quickly did he pass the bullet?
The bullet grazed the side of his face, silently taking away one of his ears.
Subsequently, the dart hit Wang Cheng's chest, and it was bounced away with a "ding".
Wang Cheng was not affected in the slightest, and fired several shots at the man in gray.
Because he lost an ear just now, the man in gray has learned a lesson.
The moment Wang Cheng pulled the trigger, the others had disappeared in place.
"Doot toot!"
All the bullets missed, and the man in gray appeared on the courtyard wall.
He looked at Wang Cheng, who was alive and well, and for the first time his face showed a complicated expression, with both the pain of losing an ear and a deep incomprehension.
He was hit with a dart in the chest, how could Wang Cheng have nothing to do?
"You...... Do you have armor on you? ”
The man in gray understood as soon as he thought about it, and said a little angrily: "You wait for me!" ”
With that, he disappeared from the courtyard wall.
"Since you're here, don't go!"
