Chapter 37 The Lost Ancient Country (4)

Gu Qiufeng actually didn't have too much hope for the trio. At most, he wanted to add three more combat reserves to himself to prevent him from being completely opposed to Arcana in the later stage, leaving him with no way to escape.

Guan Ciying obviously had the leading say in the three-person team. From the last conversation, Gu Qiufeng saw that this girl was a very opinionated person. In other words, she would definitely consider the priority interests of the three of them.

So Gu Qiufeng was actually a little surprised to find the trio so active at the circus entrance early in the morning.

The moment he stepped into the market entrance, Guan Ciying's loud voice clearly reached Gu Qiufeng's ears.

Gu Qiufeng stopped and decided to see what was going on.

To be more unethical, if the trio got into any trouble, Gu Qiufeng could just turn around and leave now.

After all, he had just fought with Arcana, and his already limited physical strength was now almost completely exhausted.

He couldn't help them vent their anger, but instead became an obvious burden.

Gu Qiufeng held the mask with one hand and found a street corner where he could hide.

The markets here are all built in various winding alleys. Some vendors set up stalls, while others simply convert their homes into selling places or restaurants.

It's a perfect voyeuristic scene.

I don't know how Arcana will respond to his escape.

Gu Qiufeng was not afraid of the bounty. After all, judging from the maid's words, only the king and the pope who were in charge of selecting the Son of God could look directly at his face. When Arcana offered a bounty, he would change his name and throw away his mask, but they still couldn't catch him.

I’m afraid that Akana will come after me personally.

That violent output is horrible.

Gu Qiufeng secretly turned sideways so that his vision could include the farce happening at the circus entrance.

The sun had just come out, the sky had just turned a bluish white, and there was still a layer of damp, cold, and foggy dark clouds hanging over the sky.

The circus opens at 2pm, and even if they want to sell tickets, they won't open so early.

Most of the vendors in the market were closed, and the only sound in the quiet alley was the quarrel between Guan Ciying and another person.

The man was dressed similarly to him, wrapped tightly in a black cloak, but a hint of silver could be vaguely seen under the cloak.

He was choked by Guan Ciying, and then he was filled with a kind of panic and anger.

Gu Qiufeng heard him say sinisterly: "I have a knight card in my hand. If you continue to act like this, I will record your faces and put up a bounty throughout the city! "

Gu Qiufeng: Oh no, a special card player appears.

When Gloria was killed, she ran to the Knights to be rescued. It seems that the Knights should have some built-in buff that prevents the vampires from attacking the Knights. The identity represented in Werewolf is most likely "Hunter".

It's just that this player doesn't look like a good person.

Fortunately, Guan Ciying didn't care about these things at all. She just said "Pah": "Do you think I'm afraid of you? You call yourself a knight, but why did you sneak into Gloria's house in the middle of the night? If we hadn't caught you, what would you have done to the prime minister? You offer a reward! If you do, I will bring this matter to the church and the prime minister. You are just a little knight, not the leader of the Knights Templar. I don't think you have the ability to fight these people!"

"You...!" The player choked with anger.

Guan Ciying put her hands on her hips and laughed twice, then glared at him angrily: "What do you mean by 'I'? I have been chasing you for most of the night, but in the end, you, a mad dog, have turned the tables on me. Are you barking so proudly here?"

Gu Qiufeng was suddenly pushed gently by a hand from behind.

A thick, dark aura coldly touched his neck.

Gu Qiufeng retracted his attention and suddenly asked, "Who?"

But when he turned around, the breath suddenly dissipated like a burst bubble, and only a black shadow flashed before his eyes.

In just a moment, the trio and the knight card player noticed the movement on Gu Qiufeng's side.

Guan Ciying: "Who... Hey, why are you here so early?"

"Do you know him?" The Knight player who came over asked suspiciously, "He's also a player?"

Gu Qiufeng pretended to be confused: "What exactly are the players you are talking about?"

"Ah, NPC, that's easy!"

The Knight card player suddenly laughed strangely, and his fingers turned into several vines and swung towards Gu Qiufeng.

Guan Ciying was horrified: "What are you doing!"

Gu Qiufeng frowned, stepped aside and dodged the attack of several vines.

The Knight player said fiercely, "You guys are setting a trap for me! Let this NPC hear my conversation and let him know that I am from the Knights. He will report me!"

"You are indeed doing something shameful." Gu Qiufeng said.

He had been covering himself with the hood on the back of his robe until the player suddenly attacked, causing the hood to be hooked down by the vines, revealing the metal mask on his face.

The knight player raised his eyes and met Gu Qiufeng's exposed left eye.

His face turned pale in an instant.

"You are..." he said with trembling lips.

Li Shuntong pushed up his glasses, pulled Guan Ciying back and said helplessly, "Miss, don't be so impatient. This person doesn't seem right."

Lin Chaoxu continued, "He seems to know the gentleman we are working with."

Li Shuntong said: "It's more than just recognition. I think it's more like fear."

Lin Chao continued: "That NPC told us that he holds an important position."

Guan Ciying: "Fuck, we are relying on the NPC!"

They talked one after another and heated up the atmosphere, making the player who had just been bullying others completely weak in the knees.

He gritted his teeth, seemingly unable to believe it: "How could the Son of God beside that Boss Arcana appear here? Is it fake?"

The Knights Templar have a work log record with a portrait of the Son of God, which is this mask and robe.

The Son of God is Arcana's confidant and should be considered a half-boss.

Gu Qiufeng was slightly shocked when he saw the other party's legs suddenly go weak and he knelt down.

After all, this guy didn't seem to doubt that a player had drawn the Son of God card at all.

[I really admire Boss Gu. Really, he is so good at pretending to be an NPC, isn't he? ]

[It's no wonder that this guy didn't doubt it. The main reason is that Arcana is the nightmare of the people in City D. No one would have thought that there would be a player who could draw Arcana's trusted card and be killed by Arcana on the spot before he could reveal his flaws, right?]

[Boss Gu has some talent as an actor (.)]

Gu Qiufeng quickly recovered from his shock and said coldly, "Breaking into the Prime Minister's residence, attempting to attack the Holy Son, and having connections with dark creatures, I will report all of this to His Majesty truthfully."

He turned his attention to the trio who were watching the fun and taking no prisoners. He paused and continued, "There are also those who try to use their knighthood to deliberately oppress the common people. I remember that they can be directly dismissed as knights, right?"

"I, Holy Son, I know I was wrong..." The player was about to cry.

Gu Qiufeng looked at him deeply and said, "It would be great if you could bully someone and then fail and realize that you were wrong. Instead of begging me, think about who instigated you to do this."

The player who was still crying suddenly said: "I am not wrong! That Gloria is a vampire in disguise! I went to investigate..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a shadow suddenly appeared above his head.

The player was stunned for a second.

As the shadow invaded, half of his head was swallowed by the shadow and disappeared into the air.

“Aaaaaaaaa——”

A scream came out of his throat.

Soon, however, the shadow engulfed his vocal cords and larynx as well.

Like a windshield wiper, it completely wiped out this person's existence from the world.

The system sound suddenly rang in the ears of the four players.

[Player Guo He, identity card mission failed, forced to exit the world instance]

Gu Qiufeng raised his eyebrows.

Guan Ciying and Li Shun looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.

Although it was a role-playing dungeon, the game mechanics of each dungeon were always slightly different. This was the first time they had seen how this role-playing dungeon worked.

Gu Qiufeng raised his eyes and saw a dark shadow suddenly running away from the roof in the distance.

He felt relieved and said, "Let's go, don't worry about him."

If we look at it from the perspective of a large-scale Werewolf game, each player with an identity card has his or her own basic principles and main quests. The Werewolf's duty is to kill, and the Knight's duty is to protect. Once this basic principle is violated, and the Knight helps the Werewolf, he or she will probably be kicked out of the dungeon like the player just now.

Guan Ciying asked hurriedly, "Sir, do you know why?"

"If I'm not mistaken, this knight should have a civilian friend. That civilian should have been replaced by a vampire." Gu Qiufeng said, "He is a knight of the God of Light, but he associates with dark creatures. This is the punishment from the God of Light."

Guan Ciying murmured, "So it can be interpreted this way."

Gu Qiufeng: "I thought you would ask me why I hid my identity from you."

"I'm not stupid." Guan Ciying rolled his eyes and said, "When investigating something, of course we have to be as low-key as possible."

Gu Qiufeng said: "Smart. But unfortunately, the vampire disguised beside the knight just now should have already set his sights on you."

Li Shuntong looked at him: "What do you mean?"

"Do you want to go to the circus now to find out what's going on?" Gu Qiufeng said, "I'm also in a hurry, so I'd rather make it quick."

Guan Ciying immediately said, "Let's go."

The circus was actually converted from a residential building, with a rehearsal yard and a large hall for performances.

Gu Qiufeng and the three men found a low wall and climbed over it.

As soon as he landed, Gu Qiufeng held his breath.

In front of him was a thick locust tree.

What was densely packed on the tree were not leaves, but corpses whose blood had been sucked dry.

There is indeed something wrong with the Starlight Circus!
