Lin Hu: "Can everyone in your town hear this?"
The man on the left: "Children and the elderly can't hear us."
Lin Hu: "Are the volumes of the sounds you hear all the same?"
The man on the left: "No, it's near the back mountain, on the west side of the city. The noise is quite loud there, but basically no one lives there now."
After listening to the uncle's words, Lin Hu noticed out of the corner of his eye that several players had quietly left the teahouse.
Wen Mofei and Cheng Yuan also noticed it.
They weren't hiding their conversation from anyone, and the three of them guessed that those people must have heard the news and gone to the west of the city.
Lin Hu wasn't sure if he was the only one who had received news of the treasure, and he couldn't just sit idly by and wait for his doom.
"I have other things to attend to, so I won't chat any longer." Lin Hu stood up, said goodbye to the others, and left the inn.
Wen Mofei and Cheng Yuan also got up to say goodbye and left with Lin Hu.
Lin Hu stepped out of the inn and saw the people who had just left the teahouse.
They seemed to be asking for directions when one of the men, a man with a buzz cut, turned around and saw Lin Hu and his group.
Lin Hu noticed that they had spotted him, and a smug smile appeared on his lips. He took the lead and headed west ahead of the others.
Lin Hu can fly, although he can't fly very high, but he can scale walls and rooftops, so he's definitely faster than those other people.
They even left Wen Mofei and Cheng Yuan behind.
The man with the buzz cut quickly patted the three people beside him: "Hurry up and chase after him, don't let that kid find the treasure first."
They were a temporary team of three men and one woman. After hearing the buzz-cut man's reminder, they also saw Lin Hu's figure.
"Chase!"
The group quickly sprang into action and chased after Linhu.
Lin Hu also heard what the other person was saying, so it seems that quite a few people already know about the treasure.
Lin Hu edited a message and sent it to Wen Mofei and Cheng Yuan.
[Lin Hu: There might be treasure in the west of the city, let's grab it first!]
The two, who were initially clueless and just running around blindly, sped up their run after seeing the news.
Lin Hu called Duan Linzhou again, and the call connected quickly. Lin Hu didn't have time to look at the screen, and Duan Linzhou's voice came through: "What happened? Did something go wrong?"
Duan Linzhou watched the camera shake violently over Lin Hu's head, worried that something might have happened to him.
"It's nothing, it's a small matter, listen to me first." Lin Hu was running and flying on the roof, his breathing was still relatively stable.
"My treasure might be in the west of the city. Go and inquire around there; it might also be in the west of the city," Lin Hu said, glancing at the group of people winding through the alleys not far away.
Wen Mofei and Cheng Yuan were almost caught up by the group of four. Lin Hu did a 180-degree spin in the air, took out a non-poisonous arrow, drew his bow and fired it at the feet of the "leader" man with the buzz cut.
The man with the buzz cut managed to stop in time, avoiding having his foot pierced. Still shaken, he looked up at Lin Hu with resentment.
Kelin Lake didn't care about any of that. He only shot arrows to slow them down. Once he achieved his goal, he naturally had to hurry up and find the treasure.
"I'll talk to you now, hurry up and go. Quite a few people know about the treasure," Lin Hu quickly said to Duan Linzhou, and then hung up the video call.
Lin Hu didn't expect that the arrow would anger the crew-cut man.
The man with the buzz cut gave a wink to the only girl in the group, and she nodded in understanding.
The girl gestured with her hand in the air in front of her, and a purple vortex with a diameter of 60 centimeters appeared in front of her.
This girl is a space-shifting ability user, belonging to the support type of ability.
"Captain, hurry up, I can't hold on much longer with my powers," the girl said with some difficulty.
The captain of their squad was the man with the buzz cut.
Upon hearing the sound, the man with the buzz cut immediately sprang into action, leaning half his body into the space.
A purple vortex suddenly appeared in front of Lin Hu, who was flying in the sky. He reacted, but it was too late to brake.
A hand reached out from the vortex and grabbed his neck.
Lin Hu took a poisoned arrow and plunged it deep into the skin of the other person's hand. Due to the pain, the other person could not exert much force and instead grabbed Lin Hu's collar.
"Aaaaaaah!" The man with the buzz cut hadn't even emerged from the vortex when his shrill scream rang out.
"Damn it! I'm going to kill you!!!" The man with the buzz cut rushed out of the vortex and tried to pounce on Lin Hu from the sky.
He figured that since he was using Lin Hu as a scapegoat, he wouldn't be seriously injured.
But before he could even get halfway out, a hard boot slammed into his face, making his nose sting.
The pain made him forget everything else, and he let go of Lin Hu's hand.
"Who! Who did this?!" the man with the buzz cut shouted angrily. Luckily, they had run to a less crowded place, otherwise, this situation would have attracted a lot of attention.
The boot fell from the sky, and Wen Mofei hopped over it on one leg, picked up his own shoe, and put it on.
This was the first time he had ever thrown so accurately.
"Sorry, it's mine." Wen Mofei looked up at the man with the buzz cut, saying apologetically, but with a provocative smile on his face.
"Boss, you go first, leave them to us," Cheng Yuan called out to Lin Hu.
"Yes, you should leave quickly, they are no match for us." Wen Mofei echoed, and then he condensed a water ball in his palm, ready to attack at any moment.
Instead of a bunch of people rushing to fight and kill each other in front of the treasure, it's better to stop it from the start and divide the spoils among your own camp.
Although they had only known each other for an hour, they trusted Lin Hu's character.
"Okay, wait for my good news." Lin Hu said and left.
Even if we don't know if there will be a result, encouragement is the right thing to do at times like this.
Lin Hu flew to the western end of the city and saw a mountain with stone steps leading up to it.
Lin Hu was about to fly up, but he found a barrier blocking his way. He stopped and tried to walk over it.
He discovered that he could walk, but it seemed he couldn't use his special abilities; he could only climb the mountain on foot.
Lin Hu climbed the mountain for nearly an hour, but before he could see the summit, he encountered a cave halfway up the mountain.
He stopped and took out the small, temperature-controlled nightlight that he had been hiding in his pants pocket to provide illumination.
Lin Hu entered the cave, and the dark cave was now illuminated. The ground was covered with soil and scattered with some animal bones.
Lin Hu silently prayed "May Buddha protect me" and walked a little further inside.
"Phew~"
A sound like an animal exhaling rang out, not loud but clear enough, and it also stirred up a slight warm breeze.
Lin Hu stopped, hesitating whether to continue walking in.
[1097: Host, I suggest you go in and take a look. I sense a special power inside.]
"Ahhhhh!" Lin Hu was startled by 1097's sudden shout, and he really jumped.
"1097, are you trying to kill me? You scared me to death!" Lin Hu cursed at 1097.
Before he could react, 1097, who had been missing for a long time, suddenly returned.
