Chapter 111 [(*^▽^*)]
Xue Rui followed Lin Leyou's footsteps, "What is it? I'll help look for it too."
Lin Leyou walked into the security booth and took down the photo of the team leader. "This is fake. We need to find a real one to hang up."
Without asking for a reason, Xue Rui immediately nodded in agreement, "Okay, I'll help look too. But, roughly within which area?"
Lin Leyou shook his head, "I don't know either, let's look for it indoors first."
I searched everywhere, from top to bottom, left to right, front to back, even under the mattress and under the tables and chairs. I even tapped on the floor and walls to see if they were hollow, but I found nothing...
What's going on?
Where else could this evil spirit hide this thing?
Could it be that he really hid it in the neighborhood? That neighborhood is so big, how are we supposed to find it? How long would it take?
He re-examined the photos of the security guards who had been removed due to their injuries, searching through them one by one, but there was no photo of the captain.
Isn't it here?
That……
Just as Lin Leyou was in a hurry, Xue Rui walked to the back window. There was a back door near the window. He opened the back door and looked outside. As a result, he found what he was looking for behind the drainpipe outside the back door!
"Brother Lin, hide here!"
Lin Leyou rushed over after hearing the noise, and Xue Rui had already brought the things in.
"Brother Lin, look at this."
Lin Leyou took it and examined it carefully. He found that although it was a little dirty, it was exactly the same as the one he had just taken down from the wall.
After a simple wipe, he actually hung it up.
Sure enough, I received a system notification very quickly.
"Congratulations to Lin Leyou for successfully completing the mission and returning the item controlling the BOSS to its original position. Reward: 1000 points!"
Just as they heard the system notification, Lin Leyou and Xue Rui were startled by the deafening roar coming from outside the door, and even covered their ears.
The sound was so loud that if they didn't cover their ears, they felt like they might go deaf. The BOSS must have sensed their actions to roar like that.
His gaze fell on the photo hanging on the wall, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Now that the task was completed, it meant that the BOSS was back under control.
so……
It shouldn't be too difficult from here on out.
Lin Leyou glanced towards the door. The captain was still struggling on his own. "Xue Rui, let's go out and help!"
Xue Rui also has a mission to kill a BOSS. If he goes to help now, he can complete the mission once the BOSS is dead.
Xue Rui naturally knew that this was a good opportunity for him to complete the mission, so he did not refuse and went out with Lin Leyou to join the captain's team.
At this point, there was no time to hold back. Xue Rui pulled out his gold-plated dagger, and naturally, he didn't put down the stun gun he had been holding.
The captain held an electric baton in each hand, wielding them alternately with great force, fighting the BOSS to a standstill.
Lin Leyou and Xue Rui could only lend a hand from the sidelines, taking advantage of the BOSS's attention being on the captain to launch a sneak attack or two with their daggers.
Over time, they found that using a knife was more convenient, and holding the stun gun in their hands was actually in the way. After all, there was already a captain who used two stun guns, so the two of them put the stun guns away.
While the captain was beating the BOSS with a stun gun, they went up and ambushed the BOSS, stabbing him twice. Although the security guard's stun gun couldn't knock the evil BOSS unconscious, it could still make him stiffen when it hit him.
This gave Lin Leyou and Xue Rui their chance, and just like that, the BOSS's body was covered in scratches from the two of them.
His whole body was covered in blood, and he looked very badly injured.
But the evil boss was incredibly resilient. Even after being stabbed dozens of times and having its blood splattered all over the ground, it was still alive and kicking, as if all the damage it had done so far was just a tickle.
However, damage is damage. It's impossible to say that just because someone looks mentally harmless, there's no damage. The most compelling proof is that this demon is no longer the captain in appearance.
As time went by, its skin gradually turned deathly pale, and the blood flowing from its wounds turned dark red.
Its fangs were gleaming with a bluish light, and its eyes, with their red sclera and black pupils, were quite terrifying, especially since it was late at night.
Before Xue Rui could react, the BOSS grinned menacingly at him, its claws about to strike. Xue Rui instinctively tried to think, but it was too late. Then he remembered the security guard uniform and that there was nothing to be afraid of, so he didn't take it to heart.
But the captain managed to block it in time with a stick.
"Be careful, this is the leader of the evil spirits. It's different from ordinary evil spirits. Its attacks have a certain probability of injuring the security guards."
Upon hearing this, Lin Leyou and Xue Rui were immediately shocked.
They all moved away immediately, thinking that they wouldn't be attacked since they were wearing security uniforms, but they didn't expect that this evil BOSS would have a certain probability of breaking through their defenses.
That's awesome!
Captain, "Don't just stand there, attack him now!"
Lin Leyou, along with Xue Rui who had regained her senses, continued to finish off the BOSS from the side, while the captain was responsible for using the stun baton to block its attacks and prevent it from escaping.
If they escape, it will be really difficult to find the evil boss who is hiding in the neighborhood.
"You...you ants...do you really think I can't deal with you?"
The captain didn't seem to care at all. "If you had a solution, you wouldn't have said that; you would have just taken action!"
There's really nothing we can do about the evil boss. In previous dungeons, it would usually avoid this plague and kill players, but this time it suffered such a complete defeat.
While it was stunned, Lin Leyou slashed at its neck. This slash was perhaps a critical hit, because the evil ghost BOSS actually covered its bleeding neck with both hands.
It looked at Lin Leyou with a shocked expression, as if asking, "How could this slash cause such great damage?"
Not to mention the BOSS, even Lin Leyou himself found it unbelievable. Did he really land a critical hit just now?
Wait, that last strike seemed to have drained half of his sanity?!
Ouch! This is terrible... How could this happen?
Captain: "Wow, Kobayashi, that's amazing! Your weapon is absolutely top-notch!"
Yes, the weapon is exquisite, and his rationality is also an indispensable gem!
Xue Rui also took a closer look at the dagger in his hand. For some reason, it looked somewhat familiar, but it also looked very similar to many ordinary knives.
He couldn't quite explain where this feeling of familiarity came from.
I can't remember it right now.
Lin Leyou sensed his remaining sanity and knew he had to wait a while before swinging his sword, so he patted Xue Rui on the shoulder and said, "Go quickly."
Xue Rui nodded, and taking advantage of the BOSS's weakness as it clutched its neck, he quickly went over under the captain's cover and slashed the evil BOSS several times.
His dagger can absorb blood; each attack absorbs blood, which can be converted into healing and stored, but only a maximum of five units of healing can be stored at a time.
Once the storage is full, it will no longer absorb blood and can only cause damage. Therefore, every time the storage reaches the limit, it will use up one healing amount to heal itself.
Even though he had no injuries.
He then discovered that this healing unit could actually be used to heal other people. He didn't know if it would work on other players, since he hadn't tried it, but it did work on the two NPCs around him!
Since that's the case, he immediately gave the captain two healing amounts.
The captain immediately felt completely healed and fully recovered to his peak condition. After seeing the captain become lively and energetic again, Xue Rui gave Lin Leyou another healing boost.
Lin Leyou felt that his physical strength had been restored, but nothing else.
Although it seemed strange, no one expected that Xue Rui, the captain, was wearing a uniform. Since it was the original uniform, it was already a bit torn, so even if the injuries inside had healed, he wouldn't be able to see them.
So he didn't notice Xue Rui's treatment at all. Even if the captain knew, he wouldn't say anything. Right now, all he could see was the evil BOSS in front of him.
The sanity that Lin Leyou consumed cannot be restored through treatment; it belongs to the realm of the mind and requires time to recover slowly.
So it's no wonder he didn't notice anything unusual.
However... with Xue Rui's continuous energy replenishment, the three of them always had plenty of energy.
Lin Leyou's sharp blade can't be used all the time, so Xue Rui should take on the main damage output, while the captain acts as a tank to absorb damage in front of him. Although the captain is powerful, he can't guarantee that he won't get hurt.
Fortunately, this damage dealer also has a healer; if the captain gets injured, Xue Rui can immediately restore him to full health.
In addition, Lin Leyou, who could deliver a critical hit every now and then, was also roaming around nearby. As the battle progressed, this evil BOSS was completely dumbfounded.
It couldn't run away, and it couldn't fight back. As time dragged on, it realized that it had absolutely no hope.
In fact, when Lin Leyou and the others hung the items back up, it knew that it had no hope. It was still putting up a last-ditch effort to kill the three people in front of it, just to vent its anger at the end of this game.
Now it could only weep silently, uttering a few harsh words: "You've gone too far!"
The captain squinted and smiled, saying, "If you're not happy, there are other ways to solve the problem, but you took it upon yourself to break free from control. That's your own wrong choice! You can't blame anyone else."
Other options?
Lin Leyou and Xue Rui were both somewhat surprised.
Lin Leyou was surprised. Was there really another way to change one's identity if one didn't want to continue playing as an NPC like a dungeon boss?
Xue Rui had no idea what went wrong with this instance from beginning to end; he always thought that everything that happened was part of the storyline set up within the instance.
