After everyone else left, Tang Er turned around and looked at the cemetery in the night. He turned to look at Bai Liu, his face becoming serious: "Are you sure that the body of the big developer in District E is buried in one of the buildings in this cemetery?"
"If my guess is correct, that should be the case." Bai Liu nodded calmly. "According to my theory, these developers should have died a long time ago, and used the land contract to attach their partially alienated bodies to the land. If that's the case, I guess the most likely scenario is that their real bodies should be placed together with the contract and buried somewhere."
"Since most of the E District except the cemetery has been overdeveloped, I tend to think that the bodies of the five major developers were buried in the cemetery on their own land from the beginning."
Tang Er frowned: "But there are too many cemeteries here, and you have a blood-sucking buff on you. The medicine Liu Jiayi gave you can't support you and me to sweep all the buildings step by step. We need to sweep the area faster and more accurately."
Bai Liu looked around and asked softly, "Captain Tang, you said there are unfinished buildings on the ground. Is there also an unfinished cemetery underground?"
Tang Erda was stunned by this abrupt question: "Why is there a rotten-finished cemetery building underground..."
He paused halfway through his words and looked at Bai Liu fiercely: "You mean?!"
"Yes." Bai Liu looked at Tang Erda and explained slowly, "Have you forgotten what the NPC told me? Developers will hang around the unfinished building."
"According to the information we got at the beginning, the deceased homeowner will return to his house as a ghost and attack anyone who tries to enter his house. So according to the logic of this setting, it is natural that the developer will enter the cemetery where his body is after his death and attack anyone who tries to enter his range."
"The homeowner's roaming range is the entire house. Naturally, the developer's roaming range should be a certain building or a certain area. The closer to the area where its body is located, the stronger its protection and attack power will be. When it develops to a certain extent, it will prevent the workers behind it from further construction in the cemetery where it lives, resulting in the destruction of the cemetery building where its body lives."
Bai Liu raised his eyes and held up two fingers: "So, if things have progressed to this point, there are only two types of cemeteries that this developer will most likely create."
"The first type is a single cemetery."
"The second type is the unfinished building with the cemetery room where it is located as the center and the surrounding area."
Bai Liu smiled: "Captain Tang, now that the range has been reduced to this extent, as the main attacker, are you sure you can pick out and shoot the opponent before I die?"
Tang Er let out a breath, and with a sharp look in his eyes, he pulled out the gun on his waist: "It is my duty."
Area C, new property for sale.
After Yuan Guang rescued the residents upstairs one by one and forcibly sent them back home, he and Shi Qian, who had not slept all night, were so exhausted that they were just about to find a place to lie down on the ground where the new building was under construction and sleep for a few hours to recover their strength when they heard strange footsteps coming from the new building behind them.
It was the sound of countless tentacles moving on the ground, with suction cups pulling out and sucking in, making a "pop" sound.
Yuan Guang, who was dozing off on the support, slowly turned around and came face to face with Director C, who was laughing broadly with saliva dripping down his cheeks.
"I found you." Director C, whose head had been deformed to the point where he could no longer be seen as a human, licked his mouth with his pointed tongue full of wriggling tentacles and said hoarsely, "Delicious tenants."
Yuan Guang took a deep breath, pulled Shi Qian who was still sleeping beside him, and ran away: "Why are you sleeping! The monsters are coming to our door! Run!!"
Shi Qian staggered as Yuan Guang dragged her, drooling from her mouth. She looked back with sleepy eyes and was instantly frightened. She lifted up Yuan Guang's two feet and ran forward frantically: "Damn it! Why didn't you tell me earlier!"
Director C was chasing after him with tentacles surging from behind. Half of his face was split open with blood. His tongue was sticking out. The tentacles on it were stretched out and straightened to become sharp, blood-sucking mouthparts of mosquitoes. He laughed slyly: "Come and buy my house!"
"Don't you want a home of your own?"
Shi Qian ran so fast that only her two legs could be seen. She was panting heavily and yelling to Yuan Guang anxiously: "Yuan Guang, should we use our skills to fight this monster? If this monster is hit by another big skill of ours, we will have no trump card when we face the Wandering Circus!"
Yuan Guang's feet were almost off the ground because of Shi Qian's pulling. He had a serious expression on his face: "Besides, my skill is too dangerous. You must not use it lightly until the last moment! My summons will attack everyone on the field except me, including you!"
"You shouldn't have come into the game with me!"
Shi Qian did not answer. She just looked back and pulled Yuan Guang into a small alley. She and Yuan Guang leaned against the wall, gasping for breath. Their eyes were fixed and the atmosphere was solemn.
"You shouldn't have entered the game with me." Yuan Guang repeated to himself, "I have been participating in the competition alone because when I first participated, I used my skills, and then..."
"After your summon kills your opponent, it will turn around and kill all team members except you." Shi Qian lowered her head and added the second half of Yuan Guang's words, "From now on, you will never participate in team competitions again."
Yuan Guang fell silent.
Shi Qian raised her hand and hit Yuan Guang's head hard: "But how can a one-person team competition be called a team competition!"
"Rather than letting everyone feel sad watching you standing alone on the court, as your team members, we would rather risk being killed by you and stand on the court with you."
Shi Qian raised her head, her eyes slightly reddened: "Russell Cemetery has never been a guild that sacrifices teammates."
"Didn't you always tell us that even if we die, we should die with the hope of living? Do you want us to watch you standing alone on the field, dying in despair among those hideous summons?"
Shi Qian clenched her fists: "I can't do it."
Yuan Guang didn't say anything, his fingers hanging at his sides curled up slightly.
Director C's footsteps approached them again. Shi Qian couldn't help but swear. She grabbed Yuan Guang's wrist and jumped out from the other side of the alley, cursing angrily: "Isn't Director C only allowed to move around within the range of the floors he developed? Did he develop all the areas around here? His range of activities is too wide!"
"The cemetery is not." Yuan Guang recalled the information he saw at the trading center and quickly said to Shi Qian, "The cemeteries in each district are the original supporting facilities, not developed by the agent developers at the back. You can go there!"
Shi Qian made an OK gesture and started running towards the cemetery.
As a result, just after coming out of the alley, Shi Qian bumped into a strong chest head-on. The arrogant and evil laughter of Director C came from behind. The man in front of Shi Qian held her shoulders steadily, then raised his hand and pulled out a gun from his waist, aiming at Director C behind them with a crisp and clear aim.
“Bang, bang!” After two gunshots, Director C let out an unwilling and angry roar, and then the roar became weak and trembling, followed by the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.
Shi Qian turned her head subconsciously and saw the body of Director C lying on the ground, and then her pupils shrank.
The person who could easily kill a monster of this level with just two shots could only be...
Even though Shi Qian's face was carefully disguised, the threat of impending death still made her tremble. The man who had just helped her to solve the monster asked her, "Are you a resident of Area C? Are you okay?"
——If they were seen through, this guy would kill her and Yuan Guang with one shot, without giving them even time to escape.
Shi Qian tried hard to compose her expression, took two deep breaths and turned away.
Tang Erda leaned forward, frowning as he held her arm and asked her politely, "Is this ghost the developer of the run-down building in your area?"
"Yes, ahem, yes." The fear brought by this overwhelming difference in fighting power made Shi Qian cough twice the moment she opened her mouth, her face pale and curled up into a small ball. "We just bought a house in a new building. No, I don't know why we were suddenly chased."
Yuan Guang was still in a stagnation stage. He stared at Bai Liu standing next to Tang Erda with his eyes wide open. He came back to his senses after Shi Qian poked him with her elbow. He agreed in a trance: "Yes, yes, I just bought a house, and it's already unfinished."
Bai Liu glanced back and forth between the two people and asked with a smile: "Are you husband and wife?"
Shi Qian forced a fake smile and pulled Yuan Guang to stand next to her: "Yes, yes, I just got married and took out a loan to buy a house."
"Oh, is that so?" Bai Liu casually took out a bloody document wrapped in a file bag, "It's like this, we just found a rotten building in the cemetery building in District E, and then by coincidence we found the body of the largest developer in District E in this rotten building. Then after beating to death, or eliminating the ghost of the big developer in District E, we took out this land certificate from his corpse."
Bai Liu smiled faintly: "Now that the land in District E has returned to normal management, have you considered buying a house in District E?"
[System prompt: Player Bai Liu obtained the land certificate of District E and removed it from the body of the developer of District E, activating the true end branch - find and destroy all the land certificates of District 5 of Sunshine City.]
[Current completion progress (1/5)]
Bai Liu waved the certificate in his hand with a half-smile, and looked directly at Yuan Guang with a faint gaze: "President Russell, who just got married, have you ever considered giving up the shabby house you just bought and buying a house in District E?"
Yuan Guang stared at the land certificate, his pupils shrank to a tiny dot: "How could you..."
Before Yuan Guang finished his words, Bai Liu moved to his side at a speed invisible to the naked eye.
Bai Liu grasped the handle of the whip and hit Yuan Guang in the abdomen, who was still in shock. At the same time, he lowered his eyes and whispered in Yuan Guang's ear:
"Yuan Guang, next time if you don't want to be recognized, you'd better control the way you stare at the enemy."
"The murderous intent is too strong."
The next second, Yuan Guang was knocked flying by Bai Liu with a stunned look on his face, and hit the wall, causing cracks to break into pieces. He rolled down from the wall and knelt on the ground, covering his abdomen and gulping down blood.
Bai Liu continued to attack with the whip in hand without stopping. He raised the whip again with an indifferent expression and threw it at Yuan Guang, who was trying to stand up with a bleeding head and staggering.
Shi Qian's pupils shrank: "Yuan Guang!!"
Yuan Guang raised his head in a daze, and a snow-white whip with sharp bone spurs on both sides was coming down on his face.
