No one expected that day would suddenly appear in the country that never sleeps, just as no one expected that the double-headed bird would suddenly appear in the daytime, even if only for a moment.

"What was that just now?"

"Why is it suddenly bright outside?"

"I saw it too. So it wasn't just my hallucination?"

"Didn't you see it? That's light! It's natural light!!"

"It has been many years since we have seen daylight in Dajin. Is this finally coming to an end?"

"...No, am I the only one who saw a dark shadow in the light?"

"You saw it too?!!"

The officers and soldiers who were originally looking for the assassin saw that their leader had gone out, and they stood there for a while, not knowing whether to leave or stay. Their minds seemed to have followed their leader's gaze to the direction that had just lit up. At this moment, the guests who came to eat all rushed to the doors and windows at the same time, and the scene was temporarily chaotic.

No one noticed that at this moment, behind the inn, a golden silk thread hooked the top of the building and then suddenly tightened.

Shi Yu grabbed the silk thread and climbed onto the roof, and the silk thread at his fingertips shot towards the tall building in the neighboring neighborhood again.

He Weiyu used all his limbs to finally catch up and climb up from behind, panting like a dog: "Ancestors!"

He couldn't figure it out. Didn't the analysis posts on the forum say that the other party had a weak constitution and was born with deficient blood and qi? Wasn't he afraid of cold and suffered from various illnesses as long as he was exposed to the wind and the sun? It was fine that his potential exploded in times of crisis and his strength soared, but why was he now more skilled at climbing walls than a healthy man like him? Wasn't that reasonable? !

Shi Yu glanced at him sideways, tore off the silk thread in his hand and stuffed it into his hand, then swung out another handful of wooden pagoda brakes that were tied to the tall building, and put the wind that was howling in the long night into his wide hood, and jumped onto the top of the tall building.

He Weiyou held the silk thread that the other party had stuffed into his hand, and climbed up like a flying claw grabbing the eaves, and followed suit.

The place where Chongming's figure appeared was not far from the inn, only a few dozen meters at most, otherwise the light would not have reached there and been seen by people.

The streets were extremely noisy because of the strange vision that had just occurred. After a moment of distraction, the officers and soldiers had already begun to organize discipline and drove the people who tried to leave their original positions and gather towards the light source back to their original places. Instead, they forgot to pay attention to the movements above their heads.

Shi Yu took advantage of the chaos and jumped over several buildings, eventually landing on the roof of a building next to where the Chongming Bird had landed.

Thanks to the crowd of onlookers holding lanterns below, even without going down, one could clearly see that there was an obvious charred body lying across the road.

The skin of the corpse was black, and the road surface beneath it also showed signs of being burned by high temperatures. The edges were outlined by accumulated dust, grease was sizzling out, and the smell of burnt protein filled the air.

Most importantly, the corpse had a player bracelet on its hand bones.

The people from the government office came quickly, and the head of the police was asking the witness who was nearby: "When did the fire start to light up?"

The person being questioned was just an ordinary citizen who had never come into contact with such a high-ranking official in his life. He replied tremblingly: "I remember that it was past noon when I left the house and I came from Sui Jin Street, so the accident should have happened around 3 p.m."

Someone nearby boldly interrupted: "It was the 4th hour. I was having dinner at the restaurant next door and happened to see the clepsydra."

"About how long did it last?"

"It's very quick, just a blink of an eye."

"Did you see how he died?"

The one who interrupted shook his head: "I didn't see that."

The person who was first asked caught the official's gaze again and stuttered, "It wasn't actually the light that suddenly lit up around us at that time, but a big bird flew over, and the bird's body glowed by itself."

The captain narrowed his eyes.

The constable next to him sneered, "Big bird? It can glow? Do you think we are all stupid? How dare you spread rumors in the street to confuse people? I think you are itching to go to the government office, right?!"

The man trembled all over: "I, I didn't... I really saw it..."

The captain pushed his men back and said, "Go on, what next?"

"The big bird flew over and smashed to the ground. He was hit and immediately caught fire... and then he died..."

The myth of "firebird burning people" was spread through street inquiries.

"So it was the spirit of the Chongming Bird that attacked the players just now? Just like it attacked you last night?" He Weiyou had both hands in the gaps between the tiles. "But why would it attack in the daytime? Aren't they afraid of being seen by the people?"

Shi Yu: "It doesn't matter to ordinary people whether they can see it or not."

He Weiyou was stunned for a moment, then he realized that he had fallen into a misconception.

This is just a game for the players. The attack of the divine bird is just like the revenge of the ghost, which should be a special plot in the dead of night. However, it is real to the natives in the dungeon world. It is simply a fantasy to require that only the players are present when all supernatural phenomena occur, and the natives are completely unaware of it. They are lucky not to see it, but even if they really encounter it, it is a normal situation in probability.

"So that Chongming really hates us, right?" He Weiyu stared at the charred corpse and murmured, "It's burned like this, it must be dead."

Shi Yu did not comment and stood up to go home.

He Weiyou naturally followed him.

It has been who knows how long since anyone has been on the roof here. The tiles are made of stone that absorbs water very easily. It rained last night, and the moist gaps are full of moss. Stepping on it would be the beginning of a disaster.

He immediately maintained his balance before slipping, but his feet still made an uncontrollable harsh friction sound, which frightened him so much that his heart almost stopped.

Shi Yu had already landed on the top of another building and looked back at him: "Are you still not leaving?"

He Weiyou slowly exhaled from his throat and looked back as well.

People in the rear were still discussing the incident of "the divine bird setting fire and killing people in the street", and no one even glanced at us.

He Wei finally reacted.

If he was one of the crowd watching on the ground at this moment, he would most likely not pay attention to the strange sound suddenly coming from above his head, just like a person in a hurry would not deliberately look back at a passerby who suddenly shouted someone else's name, because there are more worthy things to pay attention to in front of him.

Thinking of this, he stood up carefully and walked back step by step.

The accident happened at this time.

A passerby below didn't know whether his eyes were sore from staring at the corpse or he was simply looking around, but his eyes somehow drifted to the roof. Because there was no lantern on the roof and the light was not bright enough, all he saw was a ghost crawling and peeping, and he let out a short scream on the spot.

Others followed his gaze and suddenly widened their eyes: "There's someone up there!"

Everyone around on the street turned their eyes over.

I don't know what the head of the police looked like, but he waved his hand suddenly and said, "They are assassins! Capture them!"

He Weiyou: “…”

Shi Yu: “…”

【Li Daspic

[I can feel the despair even through the screen]

[Why do I want to laugh so much even though the situation is so critical?]

[I don’t know now whether it’s because Shi Meiren’s luck is too strong or He Dazui’s comedian aura is too majestic…]

As the captain gave the order, he tapped the ground with his toes, his body flew into the air, stepped on the eaves of the house, and punched over!

He Weiyu felt like a thousand horses were galloping through his heart, so he turned around and ran away.

There are martial arts requirements to be the head of the police.

No matter how much the player improves, his physical fitness is the only thing he can do. Even if he is strong enough to break a wall with one punch, he cannot climb walls or fly over rooftops.

He Weiyou was so busy dodging that he lost his balance and fell directly from the roof.

The constables under him had already caught up and surrounded He Weiyou in an instant.

The head of the police didn't even look at him, his eyes were fixed on the other person on the other side of the eaves: "Why don't you surrender?"

Shi Yu turned his head and looked behind him.

Not only the detectives were attracted by the order, but also the officers and soldiers who were already searching for the assassin in the surroundings, who surrounded the two of them.

Unless he grew wings on the spot, the difficulty of escaping across the encirclement was probably equivalent to an ordinary middle school student breaking the Guinness World Record for long jump.

He said nothing and turned his gaze back.

The captain slowly drew out the knife from his waist and said, "Then I will have to offend you."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly stepped into the air and chopped down from the air with his long sword!

Shi Yu flipped over and jumped behind the opponent, slashing the tip of the knife into the roof. Small pieces of stone flew out as he pulled the knife out, and the next second they came towards his face.

The captain's knife cut through the opponent's collar. When the opponent bent down, he suddenly kicked his wrist, and the long knife fell down from his hand. Almost at the same time, a sound of breaking wind was heard from his neck.

While Shi Yu was kicking the opponent's neck, he tried to grab the fallen knife, but unlike the opponent's hand that just loosened its grip for a moment, his other hand had already grabbed the handle of the knife again and stabbed him in the heart with his backhand.

In the dark night, the sword flashed and the two figures were almost completely entangled, attacking and dodging at the most dangerous distance. Suddenly, I didn't know who hit who, and the huge muffled sound when the fists and palms attacked the human body spread. At the same time, a stream of blood rolled down the sword and hit the bluestone slab on the ground.

Shi Yu's shoulders, waist, abdomen, and even palms were all cut by the blade. The other party couldn't help but spit out blood, blood foam flowed down his chin into his collar, and the veins on the hand holding the handle of the knife bulged.

The captain wiped the blood off his chin, suddenly threw the long knife in his hand to the opposite side, and then retreated quickly the next moment.

The officers and soldiers who had been lurking in the surroundings all stood up at this moment after receiving the signal. Hundreds of swords, spears, and halberds shot towards the center from all directions!

【Fuck】

[Are you playing hooligan? ? ]

[Isn’t this too despicable? ! ! ]

[It’s a foul to use the majority to bully the minority! ! ! ]

【don't want--! ! ! 】

The sharp cold weapons swept over like poisonous vines, wrapping around and blocking everyone's sight. At the moment, a bright sword light suddenly pierced the night sky in the center.

Shi Yu stood on the roof, the blocked weapons piled up, the blood oozing from his body soaked his clothes, the hands hanging by his side loosened tremblingly, and the long sword, which suddenly dimmed due to running out of energy after a full-strength attack, clanged, and the sound of the impact when it fell to the ground pierced his eardrums.

The head of the police appeared behind him like a ghost, and this time he easily restrained his hands, which were shaking from exhaustion: "Come with me to the cell."
