"Brother is practicing well!"

"Hardcover protein powder, new flavors, this tough guy knows about it."

"The gym is open with a big reward, with free personal training, rush 1000 and get 1000 free!"

Walking on the street of Shi Gengguo, Xu Yue's ears heard all kinds of greetings from time to time, but the same thing is that these topics are often inseparable from fitness.

As far as the eye can see, there are many shops on both sides of the street, but most of them are sports shops such as gyms, sports goods stores, and protein powder stores.

The residents along the way are all tall and muscular, and many of them have even started corresponding exercises on the side of the street, lifting dumbbells, Pilates, finger push-ups and so on.

The air was filled with the smell of male hormones, and in the golden sunlight, sweat was everywhere, and the oily muscles were shiny.

The information I learned from Qingfeng is not wrong at all, the country's obsession with fitness has reached a pathological level, and even the aesthetics have become so fixed and unified, this is by no means a natural cause, and the country must have exerted a lot of strength.

Retracting his gaze from looking around, Xu Yue began to hurry, perhaps for the purpose of showing his muscles, most of the citizens of this country like to be shirtless, and most of the pedestrians are muscular hunks, although his figure will not look inferior in it, but after watching this scene too much, he always feels a little spicy, and the atmosphere is slightly anxious.

"Qianjun? yes, that's right. ”

More than ten minutes later, Xu Yue stopped in front of a small shop located in a remote corner of the street through the guidance of the map in his hand, looked up at the signboard above, and after making sure that he had found the wrong location, he pushed the door directly in.

Because of its location, the store was deserted, with only a bored young man sitting behind the counter, waving a huge black dumbbell in his hand.

Seeing that a customer entered the door, the look on the young store manager's face jumped with joy to the naked eye, he hurriedly put down the dumbbell in his hand, and greeted warmly:

"What does this guest need? I have all kinds of discus here, weight bracelets, clothes, and everything at a good price! ”

After a general glance at the furnishings in the store, Xu Yue didn't reply, just turned over his hand and took out his assassin token and handed it to the store manager on the side.

At the moment when he saw the token, the store manager's original flattering smile quickly dissipated, became solemn and formal, briefly looked at the token in his hand, and after making sure that it was correct, he returned the token to Xu Yue with both hands, and said respectfully:

"Lord Flame, the target you are looking for, we already have the exact object of suspicion, and now we have been under remote surveillance, and we have not left the ...... of Shi Gengguo at present."

………

Twenty minutes later, the closed door of the small shop opened again, and Xu Yue, who had already learned the information he needed, walked out of the door, and then walked briskly in the direction of leaving the city.

The remote 'Qianjun' shop just now is one of the intelligence points of the Shadow Organization, if you want to engage in the profession of assassin, the importance of intelligence is self-evident, whether the intelligence is true and complete, can completely determine the success or failure of an assassination mission.

Therefore, the intelligence network of the Shadow Organization in all countries of the world is quite developed, especially in countries with strong national strength, and there are many intelligence points all over the world, such as the pawnshop of the Earth Dragon Country, and the 'Qianjun' shop in Shi Gengguo is one of them.

And these developed intelligence networks are one of the confidence that Xu Yue is sure to find the violators, before leaving the Earth Dragon Kingdom, he has already handed over the characteristics of the violators obtained through tarot divination to the intelligence points there, asking them to pass them on to Shi Gengguo as soon as possible, and search for targets that match the characteristics in the country.

Not natives, bizarre methods, manipulation of corpses, may be related to the undead, a large number of residents disappeared or died for no reason.........

The characteristics of these violators are already exhaustive, and with the intelligence capabilities of the Shadow Organization, it is not difficult to find the corresponding target in this country with special customs.

Recalling the information he had obtained from the intelligence point, after leaving the big city of Shigengguo near the coast, Xu Yue spread his wings and flew quickly towards a small town in the northwest direction.

Jianshi Town is a remote town close to the border of Jinshi Country, but far away from Sturt Country.

Although it is located in a remote area, due to its proximity to the Jinshi Country, the mineral resources here are extremely rich, and the overall force value of the town is quite good.

Since eight days ago, the town has begun to disappear inexplicably, some of the residents disappeared and never disappeared again, but some residents reappeared after a day or two of disappearance, but the whole person became extremely strange.

Four days ago, a resident of the town went to the nearest big city to report that a large number of residents had disappeared from the town, but after the city guard went to investigate, they found that there was nothing abnormal, so it was not resolved.

From that day on, the communication between Solid Stone Town and the outside world began to gradually disappear, and the whole town seemed to lock itself down, and no resident ever left the confines of this town.

Due to its remote location, the strange situation in the town has not attracted the attention of the upper echelons of the country for the time being, but the intelligence organization of the shadow is keenly aware of the anomaly here, so it has launched a series of information collection.

After discovering that a magician from another country had stayed in the town ten days ago, they quickly zeroed in on the foreigner, who was most likely the target of the Flame Lord.

A day earlier, three intelligence officers had gone deep into the town to collect specific information about the magician, but after five hours, all three intelligence officers had lost contact, and the only message sent back was two words - puppet.

In the time that followed, the organization did not blindly send personnel into the investigation again, but simply remotely monitored every corner outside the town, and after making sure that the magician never left the confines of the town, they silently waited for the arrival of the Flame Lord.

At this time, after several hours of flying, Xu Yue finally arrived near Jianshi Town.

"Magician, puppet..."

Muttering the only information about this violator in the sky, Xu Yue did not choose to enter the town on foot, but directly lowered his altitude, like a soaring giant eagle, and began to circle around the town and observe.

It was midnight, the light had passed, the moon was dark, and the whole town was basically shrouded in darkness, silent and gloomy, and even the street lamps on the streets did not shine the slightest light, and the doors and windows of the shops and houses on both sides were also closed, and there was no light.

This border town, which should have been quite lively, seemed to be an empty dead place at this moment, so quiet that it made people's scalp tingle, and looking down, the town at midnight was only left with a deep shadow under the cold moonlight.

The twisted and spreading shadows of the branches, the shadows of the narrow and thin street lamps, and the shadows of the bloated and fat houses, all lying on the cold ground one by one, scanned down from above from Xu Yue's perspective, these shadows of different shapes were like the corpses of monsters, faintly wriggling, revealing an extremely strange feeling.

It seems that the offender is not a simple person, and the collateral effects have begun to ripple through the entire town. ’

Retracting his gaze, Xu Yue raised his head and looked at the very center of the town, which was the only place in the entire town that shone with light, and with a shock of wings behind his back, he did not continue to wander around the edge of the town, but accelerated towards the central position, if not surprising, the magician should be there.

As the distance narrowed, the scene in the light began to slowly meet Xu Yue's eyes, which was actually a brightly lit circus.

The circus covers a large area, with several tents scattered on the flat grass, and a large number of amusement equipment, parade cars of different shapes, exquisite and elegant carousels, singing and dancing open-air stages, and special colored lights scattered all over the corner.........

Between these rides, a large number of people shuttle between them, the sound of laughter and boiling is endless, and the strong festive atmosphere and this magnificent and fantastic bizarre set make the whole circus reveal a unique cheerful atmosphere of a fairy tale world.

But when combined with the lonely and gloomy town outside the circus, the more cheerful the atmosphere here, the stronger the eerie feeling of the extreme separation between the two.

Xu Yue did not blindly rush directly into the circus, but fell into the air at the edge, retracting the wings behind him, and his gaze at the circus in front of him was extremely solemn.

He didn't feel any sense of crisis from it, but a faint cheerful mood grew from his heart, urging him to quickly integrate into this fairytale-like grand carnival.

And at the moment when this emotion appeared from the bottom of his heart, the isolation effect of the spiritual barrier also appeared simultaneously, just like what he felt in the dark corridor of Shadow Mountain before, his reason quickly rose, and he looked down at the boiling joy under his feet with cold eyes, without the slightest fluctuation.

[You are affected by the 'Joy Pollution', and your reason is .........]

[Because of the protection of the spiritual barrier, if the judgment is successful, you will ignore the effect of 'Joy Pollution'.] 】

Xu Yue's eyes flashed, and the vigilance in his eyes all dissipated, and what appeared was an extremely pure faint joy, but in the depths of his eyes that could not be detected, there was still indifference.

With a relaxed smile on his lips, his gaze swept over the circus' façade surrounded by small lanterns, and after pausing for a few seconds on a flashing sign with the words 'Fairy Tale Circus', he stepped briskly into the only place of light in the middle of the town.

As soon as you step through the gate, you will be greeted by a warm breath, and your ears will be filled with the sound of music, laughter, and the faint sound of paradise.

[Warning: Violator No. 12476 is within 500 meters, hunters must be cautious.] 】

【Warning! Pollution distortion of violator No. 12476 has been detected, and the strength has been greatly improved, and the hunting reward has been increased!! 】

[Failed hunt penalty changed to: Forced Execution!] 】
