Chapter 24: Hide and Seek
It seems that there is a mountain called Niutou Mountain all over the country, and it is rumored that it resembles a bull's head.
But Li Rui couldn't see where the mountain looked like a bull's head anyway, and he was not in the mood to see it, because when he came to the sentry, he only saw melon skins all over the ground and watermelons that no one cared about after eating half of them.
"Golden Creek."
He squatted down and glanced at the cigarette butt extinguished on the melon skin, and knew that this was the brand that Wang Huai smoked, so the person who was originally here was most likely the person he was looking for.
Li Rui looked up at the forest, it was getting late, and a faint mist was floating in the air.
The ominous premonition in his heart became even stronger, so he rushed in without looking back.
Now his mind is full of confirming the safety of the policeman who has always taken care of him, and the value of what overlapping drops in the current situation have long been forgotten.
Of course he loves money, but there are many more things in the world than money.
......
Niutou Mountain is a big mountain, on the other side, Liu Shanshan is personally leading the team to walk in the mountains, this side of the terrain is steep, not the usual path for the villagers to go up the mountain, but now, they are all here, because there is an overlap here.
"Team leader, the thing that Brother Hong killed just now has been found out, the level 10 demon spirit big root essence is attached to an old pine tree."
Liu Shanshan nodded: "The difficulty of overlapping this time is not high, everyone cheer up, move quickly, and strive to end the battle within two hours." ”
"Yes!"
A team of several people has to take care of a large area of mountainous land, but there is no way, secret realm agents are already scarce, and this is also the norm.
Fortunately, according to the regulations of the Department of Abnormal Abilities, only agents above level 10 can carry out the task of clearing the overlapping situation, counting the failure of customs clearance, these people have at least played more than ten copies, and they are no strangers to various situations.
After some careful searching, a few more large root essences clinging to the grass and trees were removed.
"Seeker, is the CD ready, check again."
"Yes!"
The Seeker is a profession that specializes in finding traces of fluctuations in the Secret Realm with occult techniques, generally confirming the traces of enemies at the beginning and end of a battle.
He slapped his hands on his chest, and the white light spread from the palms of his hands, and several rays of light probed out like spiritual snakes, and finally turned around in the clearing and disappeared out of thin air.
"Team leader, it's gone!"
The seeker said with some joy, "It's time to call it a day." ”
"Well, let's look again, if there is any missing material." Liu Shanshan also relaxed.
When facing the folding of the present realm, the agents will be more cautious than in the secret realm, because dying in the secret realm does not necessarily affect reality, but if you die in reality, you are really dead, and even extraordinary power cannot bring the dead back to life.
So every time this kind of task comes out, the leader of the team is the most nervous, because secret agents are scarce, every subordinate is a treasure, and any damage is distressing.
After some searching, everyone found some non-soulbound materials.
"Team leader, there's an epic dryad essence!"
The newcomers in the group who had just reached level 10 shouted happily, "It's done!" ”
The searcher said angrily: "Level 5-10 materials only, at most worth tens of thousands." ”
"That's not a lot." The newcomer is on a mission for the first time, and his reaction is also normal, because he is not allowed to participate in the folding of the present realm under level 10, and can only blush as others earn bonuses.
Liu Shanshan watched the team members bickering, laughing and shaking their heads.
Just as a few people were packing up their things and preparing to call it a day, a special police officer on duty on the periphery suddenly rushed in from the periphery: "Sir, the contact with the No. 17 mild threat area has disappeared, please instruct!" ”
The level of secrecy in the Department of Abilities was very high, and he didn't know what the origin of this good-looking woman was, but he knew that the order to bring them over was also very high.
Liu Shanshan was a little surprised when she heard this report: "Lost contact? It's an ordinary police officer on duty over there, right? ”
"Yes."
Liu Shanshan felt that it should not be a dereliction of duty.
At this time, the level 10 newcomer said: "Team leader, I remember that the information said that there is a situation called breakpoint current realm overlap, it..."
Hearing this, Liu Shanshan's face immediately changed.
Breakpoint overlap, that is, two or more non-adjacent areas in an area at the same time abnormality, is a very rare situation, the old bird often subconsciously ignores it, but it is easier for newcomers to find blind spots.
"Everyone, increase the number of personnel in Area Seventeen."
Liu Shanshan's words made all the secret realm agents jump out, and then said to the special police, "You immediately block the range between the seventeenth and the fifth group of Huangcun." ”
She stared at the SWAT and said categorically: "Once there is a possible threat, you can open fire." ”
.....
Wang Huai and Li Lu chased the child's figure into the deep forest, but soon lost their trace.
At this time, a faint white mist rose in the forest, and the sky also darkened, and the trees on the mountain seemed to be strangely distorted.
Wang Huai stopped, he had already realized that something was wrong, how could a few seven or eight-year-old children run away under the chase of his old policeman, it was weird.
In contrast, Li Lu has not been exposed to any cases and inside information, he is just an accountant of the village committee, and now he is a little frightened.
"Officer Wang, did you see it clearly?"
“.....”
Wang Huai didn't respond, and he also began to doubt himself, indeed, the place where they had just set up a sentry was in an area with a wide field of vision, and it was precisely because it was impossible for someone to bypass their field of vision and go up the mountain, so only two people were arranged.
In such a place, it is unlikely that a few half-grown children will break in.
"Let's get out of the way."
He had some drumming in his heart, if it was usual, of course he wouldn't have any ideas, but this incident was very strange, and the attitude above had always been secretive, and of course he had experience as an old policeman.
Don't ask, don't talk, just don't know what to do.
But now that I'm deeply involved in it, I have to think about whether I have to get out first.
It's not that he doesn't think about protecting his children, it's that he now has serious doubts about what he has just seen.
When Li Lu heard that he could leave, of course he was amnesty, but as soon as he turned around, he was dumbfounded.
"Oh no, Officer Wang, fog!"
Wang Huai's expression was serious, and he also noticed that when he said a few words just now, the fog in the forest was already so big that the visible range was only three or five meters, and the two of them were in the mountains, and it might not be easy to get out.
At that moment, the laughter of many children was heard again in the mist.
"Hahahaha, uncle, come play hide and seek."
"You hide, we'll find it."
"Be sure to hide it."
"Dozens of sounds, we'll look for it."
"Nine, Eight, Seven, Six......"
"If you find it, hang yourself."
"Five, four, three, two, one!"
There was no gun on this mission, because the threat of pistols to secret creatures was quite limited, and Wang Huai's mission location was not in the danger zone, at least as planned.
Now, he could only take out his throwing stick and protect Li Lu to retreat.
However, suddenly, the voice that had come from the front just now appeared from behind behind this time, almost close to the ears of the two of them.
"I've found you."
"Goodbye."
