She froze, then immediately turned around, carefully trying to catch the subtle sounds in the gentle breeze.
"Ranran?"
Without responding to Gu Fei's words, Qi Ran suddenly looked nervous, noticing that behind her was the stationery store they had just searched.
"Let's go hide!"
But Gu Fei pushed her into the stationery store instead: "Ranran, there's an A-level monster nearby. I'm going to deal with it. I won't be back. Whatever you do, don't come out or make a sound, okay?"
Qi Ran grabbed her wrist: "I'll go with you."
"No, there's more than one. I'll be fine, you can trust me, but if you come out, I can't guarantee anything."
Seeing that she was still worried, he immediately kissed her on the cheek.
"I'll really be fine. I'll be back as soon as I'm done. Wait for me."
After saying that, he pushed her hand away, turned around and closed the shop door, and after hesitating for two seconds, locked it from the outside.
The strange sounds grew closer, and Gu Fei, not wanting to fight near Qi Ran, leaped onto the rooftop, covering a distance of over a hundred meters in a few bounds.
That's about it.
He raised his hand to his mouth and whistled.
Soon, six A-level monsters rushed in front of her and surrounded her.
Gu Fei's expression turned cold. He swiftly drew his long sword from his back and, before the monsters could launch an attack, slashed at one of them.
Not only have A-class monsters evolved sight and smell, but they also possess speeds even greater than those of ferocious beasts!
Their hunting purpose is no longer to eat, but to kill.
Gu Fei had extensive experience fighting A-level monsters, so when he swung his sword down, the A-level monster didn't even have time to escape before it was cleaved in two.
At the same time, five other monsters also leaped up, emitting strange cackling sounds, and attacked him from all directions.
Unable to defend against them with his sword, Gu Fei pulled out a silenced pistol from his waistband, aimed it at their heads, and fired one shot at each of them, accurately blowing the heads of three A-level monsters apart in two seconds.
His marksmanship has always been accurate.
The remaining two monsters seemed to realize the danger Gu Fei was in, and began to linger, observe, and be wary, not daring to attack rashly.
Gu Fei wouldn't let them get away with it.
A-level monsters have S-level crystal cores in their heads, which provide power for evolution and upgrades.
That was something that attracted him more than material goods.
So he drew his longsword again, and as he realized that the two monsters were about to escape, he pushed off with his feet and instantly flashed behind the monsters, slashing down with his sword.
With the six energy stones in hand, Gu Fei looked at the beautiful, sapphire-like crystal cores in his palm with a complex expression.
Low-level monsters do not have crystal cores.
Because they have not evolved.
After evolving, the monster will become another kind of creature, and the human part will condense into a crystal core.
Therefore, energy stones can provide nutrients for humankind.
This is the condensation of human life.
Six lives...
He looked away and put the crystal core into the cloth bag at his waist.
The A-level monsters here actually cooperate as a team, which is much more advanced than the ones he had seen before.
I have a feeling that this town is not simple and that I shouldn't stay here for long.
He jumped off the roof, intending to call Qi Ran and leave immediately.
Just as he landed, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from the depths of the alley.
It is the sound of human footsteps, unmasked!
Moreover, the footsteps didn't seem to be from one person.
People from Ye Wentian's base?
Gu Fei hesitated for a moment, but still went to look for her.
If they are from Ye Wentian's base, he must strike first, because they always operate in groups. If he doesn't eliminate a portion of them first, it will be very troublesome if they are targeted by the main force.
He followed the sound, but made no sound at all.
Hiding in the shadows, he indeed saw three people.
They were standing on the rooftops of nearby bungalows, dressed in identical black uniforms, holding silenced pistols, and carrying several other firearms on their backs.
One of them was holding binoculars, searching for something.
"They were definitely running in this direction, how could they have disappeared?"
"Stop looking! It's impossible for it to have run that far. It must be nearby, just hiding. You two go down and search the area. I'll keep watch from up here."
"Be careful, this kid's ability is to make people hallucinate. Don't be fooled by him! If you notice anything unusual, call for help immediately."
Are they looking for someone?
Looking for someone whose special ability is to induce hallucinations?
What a strange superpower.
However, Gu Fei didn't care about that.
All he could confirm was that these three people were not from Ye Wentian's base.
Currently, in addition to small bases like Qin Ye's, survivors are establishing many medium-sized bases and three super-large bases.
Those equipped with uniforms and possessing such sophisticated weaponry must belong to those three super-large bases.
Gu Fei didn't want to provoke them, so he turned and ran away.
There was a supermarket behind him, and he spotted the back door immediately. He decided to go around to an alley that was out of their sight before leaving.
Just as he entered the alley, preparing to go find Qi Ran, he saw a man huddled in the corner of the alley.
The man's white trench coat was stained with blood. He was breathing weakly, his eyes were closed, and he was in a semi-conscious state.
Could this person be the one they're looking for?
Gu Fei frowned slightly, hesitating between saving her and not saving her.
"Hey, you..."
He patted the man's face, trying to confirm his identity.
To my surprise, I was completely dumbfounded when I saw it.
