Before it got dark, Sidney and Ika gathered a team of twenty people. They rode on horses, holding torches, and marched out of the village. They began to search the area around the village.
As the sky gradually darkened, Lin Xiaoman felt excited, just like the excitement of a suspense blockbuster about to reveal the identity of the murderer.
Time passes slowly, and the bells signaling sleep start to ring in the distance.
At 7:30, Lin Xiaoman and Long Jiujiu went to the dungeon together.
Shao Qi was still on the phone, thousands of miles away, but he had already given the appraisal certificate to Long Jiujiu.
Long Jiujiu was leaning against the wall holding the appraisal certificate. Lin Xiaoman was also leaning against the wall, sitting on a small stool with his head supported by his hands. Although they appeared quiet, they were chatting in the group.
As time passed, at 7:59:59 on the system, the chat group suddenly went dark.
Long Jiujiu suddenly became excited and straightened his body, looking like he was going to do something big.
Long Jiujiu gave a look and said, "I'm going to take action!"
Lin Xiaoman quickly stood up, drew out his weapon, the small flower sword, and responded with a look, "I'm ready!"
Although drugs were put in the food and Ward was knocked unconscious, he still had to be careful. Lin Xiaoman was ready for a big battle.
Oh, if this monster can transform from a physical monster to a magical monster, she will admit defeat.
With an eager mood to slay the demons and monsters, Long Jiujiu opened the appraisal book, and then... was dumbfounded.
Huh?
After being poked a few times, Long Jiujiu was completely discouraged.
"What's wrong? Identification!" Lin Xiaoman urged directly, and a puzzled look in his eyes diverted a little attention.
"This thing isn't working!" Long Jiujiu was a little exasperated. "What the hell! Not only is the system malfunctioning, but the items in the mall are also malfunctioning!"
"Ah?" Lin Xiaoman was surprised, and then he thought of the key point, "Could my gold finger also be malfunctioning?"
"I'm always happy to help. How about I stab you and give it a try?"
"Thank you, but no thanks! Please get back to the point and don't change the subject." Lin Xiaoman said seriously.
Curling his lips and putting away his playful attitude, Long Jiujiu fiddled with the appraisal document again and said dejectedly, "It's over. There's no shortcut. Uncle Shao must have failed to automate."
After taking a few more slaps of the appraisal certificate to confirm that the thing was completely useless, Long Jiujiu simply put the prop into his own space, then took out a sword and poked the unconscious Ward on the ground from a distance of half a meter.
"Do you think if I stab him, I can get the monster out?"
"Well, what if he's normal?"
"That's true..." After thinking for a while, "I got it!" Long Jiujiu slapped his head, took out a glass bottle from the space, and handed it to Lin Xiaoman, "Here."
"What?" Lin Xiaoman took it.
The dark red sticky liquid was obviously blood.
"I went to the kitchen to get it this afternoon. Your bottle is black dog blood..." As he spoke, Long Jiujiu took out another bottle, "Mine is rooster blood. Try pouring it on yourself first."
"Well, it's definitely not reliable..." Just as she was about to say it was unreliable, Lin Xiaoman paused and her tongue froze. Wait, she seemed to have never seen dog meat and rooster meat on the table?
Maybe it really is useful?
Lin Xiaoman unscrewed the bottle cap and took two steps towards Ward. When he reached in front of Ward, Lin Xiaoman stretched out his hand and tilted the bottle. The sticky liquid flowed down and landed on Ward's body and face.
Unfortunately, Ward, who was tied up and drugged, had no reaction at all.
Seeing that the black dog blood was useless, Long Jiujiu stepped forward and poured the rooster blood in his hand on it. Unfortunately, Ward still had no reaction.
"It seems not possible." Lin Xiaoman was helpless. She shouldn't have had any expectations.
"That shouldn't be the case." Long Jiujiu frowned, his face wrinkled into a bun, and muttered, "If there's no special power system, then it must follow the law of mutual promotion and mutual restraint. There must be something that can restrain monsters, just like in some worlds, only silver can kill vampires."
As he spoke, Long Jiujiu seemed to suddenly realize something. He immediately retracted the sword in his hand and replaced it with a small silver dagger.
"Maybe there's silver here too."
With speculation in mind, Long Jiujiu stabbed Ward's left arm with a knife.
Although Long Jiujiu didn't hit him hard to prevent accidental killing and only gave him a superficial wound, the monster would definitely react if it was injured.
Unfortunately, no response.
Scratching his head, Long Jiujiu was extremely helpless. "This won't work. Is it because the medicine you gave me is too strong?"
Lin Xiaoman retorted, "I'm just taking precautions! It's dark out here, and if he runs away, it'll be hard to find him."
As he spoke, Lin Xiaoman suddenly had an idea and his eyes fell on the torch hanging on the wall. "Could it be fire?"
Walking to the wall, Lin Xiaoman took down two torches, one in each hand, and handed one to Long Jiujiu. "Here, try it."
"Fire?" Long Jiujiu took the torch and looked at him with a hint of disdain. "Come on, this is a monster, not a wild beast. How could it be afraid of fire?"
βItβs free to try.β
Holding a torch and approaching Ward, Long Jiujiu kept complaining, "This must be wrong. How can it be so simple..."
As the fire source approached, almost touching him, Ward's body trembled slightly, and the shadow below him also swayed for a moment.
That is definitely not a change in shadow caused by a change in light source, but a change similar to dodging!
As two sharp-eyed people, this subtle change did not escape the eyes of Lin Xiaoman and Long Jiujiu.
The last word "ε" was eaten by Long Jiujiu.
No way? It's just fire? It's that simple!
So, Shadow Fiend type?
"Ah, no response?" Long Jiujiu lied with his eyes open.
Not knowing whether he really didn't notice or was pretending not to notice, Lin Xiaoman chose to remain silent and just watched silently as he took out something unknown from the space.
Like a prison, Long Jiujiu quickly drew a circle on the ground around Ward using special-effect long-lasting fuel produced in other SS worlds.
After the preparations were completed, Long Jiujiu jumped out of the circle, then stretched out his hand swiftly and put the flame of the torch on Ward's shadow.
Almost at the moment of the attack, Lin Xiaoman took a big step back timidly, keeping a safe distance, staring at that side without blinking.
Next is the moment to witness the appearance of the monster.
As the torch flame touched Ward's shadow on the ground, the black shadow seemed to melt, a crack opened at the center of the flame, and then, like burning paper money, it shattered into pieces. Pieces of black, like mice, scurried around at a rapid speed...
