The four robbers appeared again, with the same actions and the same language.
Chen Lin looked at the four people with interest and observed them carefully.
There is no difference from before.
The character that I had clearly killed with my own hands reappeared, and it felt like a game scene refresh, which was very weird.
"What are you going to rob?"
Chen Lin asked with a blank expression.
"Kidnap someone! Oh, no, it's not you!"
The short-haired bandit leader raised his machete and was about to rush forward, but suddenly he looked puzzled, stopped, and looked up and down at Chen Lin and the other two.
The situation changed, making Chen Lin look thoughtful.
It seems that this is not a completely planned setting. These people have their own mental abilities and can change the development of the plot to a certain extent.
Thinking of this, he continued to test and said, "Since you made a mistake, please get out of the way!"
"Get out of the way?"
The bandit leader glared at him and said angrily, "No one has ever dared to let me get out of the way. Take him away and bring him back to be my wife!"
After saying that, he rushed up roaring.
Chen Lin sighed. He originally wanted to find out more information, but he didn't expect these guys to be so impulsive and start fighting at the slightest disagreement.
In desperation, he could only use the Fire Dragon Technique, intending to burn the bandit to death first, and then see if he could get anything useful out of the other three robbers.
Then Chen Lin showed a look of shock.
After the Fire Dragon Technique fell on the bandit leader, the opponent seemed to feel nothing and continued to rush towards him. In a blink of an eye, he was close to him and slashed him with a knife!
"court death!"
Before Chen Lin could make a move, Xiao Cao beside him slashed out a sword light, splitting the bandit leader in half.
Blood splattered everywhere, and filth from the internal organs flowed out, emitting a foul smell.
However, the flames of the Fire Dragon Technique still did not harm the remains of the bandit leader until they died out naturally, and even the opponent's clothes were not set on fire.
"Ah! It's the Immortal Master, Master, please spare my life, please spare my life!"
The remaining three fell to their knees, begging loudly for mercy.
Chen Lin took a look, raised his hand and sent out a fireball, which landed on one of the robbers.
The same situation occurred.
The flames burned fiercely on the robber's body, but he was not hurt at all, not even his clothes and hair were damaged.
This action only aroused the robber's ferocity. He jumped up from the ground and shouted, "If you beg for mercy, you will die. If you don't beg for mercy, you will die too. Damn it, let's fight!"
While roaring, he swung his sword and chopped randomly.
The other two robbers also rushed up.
Xiaocao was about to use sword light again, but was stopped by Chen Lin. He signaled the two to dodge, and then kept changing spells to attack.
He immediately discovered that both fire spells and other spells had lost their effects, but when he used an ordinary spiritual flying sword to attack, he easily cut the opponent in half.
Seeing this, Chen Lin's eyes flashed and he said, "He Chengfeng, use the fireball technique to attack!"
He Chengfeng immediately raised his hand, and a huge fireball shot out and landed on one of the robbers.
The robber suddenly burned up, wailed miserably, and soon fell silent.
"Senior, there is something fishy."
He Chengfeng cried out in surprise.
Chen Lin did not answer, but looked at the last robber, wanting to capture him alive and ask for some information, but the man suddenly drew his knife and slit his own throat.
The three of them looked at each other, their faces not looking very good.
"What do you think the reason is?"
Chen Lin looked at He Chengfeng and asked.
He actually already had some ideas, but they still needed to be verified.
He Chengfeng thought for a moment and said, "Senior, I think these robbers must have been killed by a certain person's attack, and they have formed a defense against this person's attack and will no longer be hurt. However, this is only effective against the person who attacked him before. In other words, the same type of attack from the same person cannot work on them twice!"
After a pause, he added, "This is just my speculation. I'd like to ask you to analyze the specific situation. My knowledge is limited, so my speculation may not be accurate."
In a place like this, facing strange creatures that can be resurrected, the slightest mistake would mean a calamity, so he didn't dare to speak absolutely.
Chen Lin nodded.
"Since you think so, then it should be correct. This is probably one of the rules of this place. If this is the case, we are in big trouble. Each death will make us immune to a type of attack. The three of us can't kill them many times. If they can be resurrected infinitely, our means will be exhausted sooner or later. By then, they will be immune to all our attacks, and we will be hunted down in our turn."
This is definitely not alarmist, but a situation that is very likely to happen.
He Chengfeng also thought of this and his face turned pale.
Xiaocao, however, had a blank expression on her face. Thinking was not her strong point, so everything was focused on Chen Lin.
And she is not afraid of death. As long as she can protect Chen Lin, it doesn't matter whether she lives or dies.
"Let's go, let's continue exploring and see if we can get back here."
Chen Lin opened his mouth, then thought of something, paused, looked at the body on the ground, and said, "Wait a moment."
Then he stopped and waited.
About an incense stick of time later, the corpse on the ground suddenly moved, and the flesh and blood gathered together, and soon it returned to its original shape.
Even those who were burned to charcoal were resurrected, and their clothes and weapons were returned to their respective bodies.
Chen Lin was shocked by this magical scene. He thought that these corpses would disappear and then the robbers would reappear, but he didn't expect that they would be resurrected in this way.
“Huh.”
After the bandit leader came back to life, he shook his head and then looked at Chen Lin and the other two in confusion, as if he was a little confused about the situation.
But immediately, he jumped back, reached for his waist, pulled out the machete, and roared loudly.
"This mountain is mine..."
Before he finished speaking, Chen Lin gave Xiaocao a signal, and Xiaocao's sword flashed and slashed down quickly.
But when the sword light fell on the bandit leader, it was like it was cutting a shadow, passing through the body, and the opponent was unharmed.
"Haha, you dare to show off your little trick of withering insects? Watch out!"
The bandit leader sneered, his aura suddenly rose, an evil breath emanated from him, the ghost head knife turned scarlet, the knife light turned into a red streak, and chopped down at Chen Lin's head!
Chen Lin's face changed slightly. After the other party was reborn again, he had undergone such a big change. Not only did his strength increase dramatically, reaching the level of middle level of Qi training, but he also became full of evil spirit, completely different from before.
He became cautious and did not attack back. Instead, he stepped back and dodged the attack.
Not only does the opponent become stronger the more he kills, but dying once will make one immune to one of his methods. If he were to kill him again, he might not be able to deal with it the next time he is resurrected.
"kill!"
After transforming into an evil creature, the bandit leader no longer spoke of capturing the man alive to be his concubine. His eyes were red and he only knew how to kill.
Following his command, the other three robbers also became evil, their momentum increased dramatically, and they began to chase and kill Chen Lin and the other two.
"Senior, save me!"
A robber slashed He Chengfeng on the shoulder with a knife. He was unable to dodge and a large piece of flesh was chopped off. He immediately screamed for help.
His strength is currently suppressed at the initial stage of Qi training, and the means he can use are limited. He is no match for the mutated robbers.
Chen Lin and Xiao Cao are fine, as they both have the strength to build a foundation, so they are not afraid of attacks of this level.
Although Xiaocao's methods were limited and the bandit leader was immune to her sword attacks, her flying speed on the sword was extremely fast and the robbers could not catch up with her.
Chen Lin had already seen He Chengfeng's situation, but he didn't expect that he was so weak that he couldn't even take a knife from the robber.
Although his cultivation is suppressed to the initial stage of Qi training here, he does not really become a cultivator in the initial stage of Qi training. His combat experience and reaction ability are still there, and he can still use some methods, but their power is suppressed.
As a foundation-building cultivator, the other party should not be without some defensive talismans. He must have some other means, but he did not use them and could only watch himself being chopped.
Chen Lin shook his head secretly.
This was also a young man with a comfortable life. He was extremely talented and had successfully established his foundation at a young age. He had never experienced any danger or bankruptcies. After his cultivation was suddenly suppressed, he was a little at a loss.
Such people, no matter how talented they are, will find it difficult to achieve great things.
Although he doesn't think highly of the opponent, Chen Lin will not watch him die, as the opponent's hidden talent is still of some use.
Seeing that the robber slashed down with his knife again, He Chengfeng was already frightened, and he immediately pointed his finger!
There was a flash of silver light, and the robber fell to the ground, his life gone.
Chen Lin was not surprised.
Among all his means, except for his innate abilities, his soul ability is the least suppressed. The power of the silver soul is as strong as the initial stage of foundation building, and the power of the gold soul has not been tested, but it is definitely stronger.
The robber was killed with one blow. Chen Lin quickly came in front of He Chengfeng, grabbed him and started shooting away.
He didn't want to kill any more robbers before finding a way out. He also wanted to make sure whether these robbers would be resurrected immediately after one of them died, or whether they would be resurrected together only after all the robbers died.
If it is the latter, you can do something about it, kill the rest and leave only one robber to study slowly.
But soon Chen Lin was horrified to find that no matter how he moved, he could not get too far away from the battlefield. Once he went beyond the range, he would inexplicably return to the starting point.
The remaining robbers did not chase far, but waited around the origin and attacked as soon as they appeared.
After several experiments, Chen Lin figured out that if only one robber died, they would not be resurrected immediately, and they had to be resurrected together. But at the same time, unless all the robbers were eliminated, they could not leave this range.
This put him in a dead end, which made him very depressed.
"Xiao Cao, I'll kill the leader, and you kill the remaining two!"
After struggling for a while, he still couldn't find a way to break the trap. Chen Lin could only grit his teeth and kill the remaining robbers.
Although I am worried that the robbers will mutate again and become too powerful to resist, dragging it out like this is not a solution.
Xiao Cao's sword light appeared, and she cut off both robbers with one sword, easily and casually. However, this left three robbers with a defense against her attack, and they could only run away if they encountered her again.
Chen Lin himself used a spiritual weapon that could also kill with one strike.
Four corpses were lying on the ground. This time he did not wait there, but left quickly.
Sure enough, after all the robbers were killed, they were no longer bound by the range of the origin and could easily cross it, but they still could not leave the woods.
After turning around twice and failing to find a way out, Chen Lin stopped, thought for a while, and put the grass into the space bag.
The robbers robbed them because they looked similar to an official who was about to take up a new post. If one of them was missing, it was unclear whether they could be let go.
"Senior, why don't you take me away as well? Those robbers are getting stronger and stronger. I feel like I'll be killed in one encounter this time."
When He Chengfeng saw Chen Lin's actions, he immediately begged.
Chen Lin said calmly: "I can't protect you all the time, and I don't have the obligation to do so. Besides, my means are becoming fewer and fewer, and I can't use them easily. I still need your help."
He Chengfeng's face suddenly fell. He really had no confidence in facing the stronger robbers, but Chen Lin's words made sense. If Chen Lin used all his means, everyone would die.
There was no choice but to follow Chen Lin tremblingly.
However, this time, after a long time, he did not encounter those robbers again, which cheered him up.
"Senior, it seems that if we are not together as a group of three, we will not break the rules and we will not encounter those robbers!"
He Chengfeng reminded Chen Lin to find a way out quickly.
Needless to say, Chen Lin also discovered this and was also somewhat excited. He did not expect that after testing for so long, the key point was the number of people.
After waiting for a while, the robbers still didn't show up, so he felt more relieved and began to leave marks on the trees and explore in different directions.
But as time went on, his face darkened again.
The situation has not changed. No matter what I do, I can't find a way out of the woods.
Obviously, they didn't find the right way to break the rules.
Chen Lin stopped making meaningless moves and stood there thinking intently. He felt that this place was not a dead end and there must be some key points that he had not discovered.
But after thinking for a long time, I couldn't come up with anything.
He Chengfeng hesitated for a moment and said, "Senior, these robbers always say the same thing every time they appear. The last sentence is to leave money for passage. Do we need to give them something in order to meet the conditions for leaving?"
Chen Lin's expression changed.
The other party is indeed a keen observer, and this idea makes a lot of sense.
He nodded and continued, "Then what do you think they need? They said they wanted to kidnap people, so do they want us to follow them without resistance?"
He Chengfeng shook his head, smiled bitterly, and replied: "Senior, this is just my guess, I don't know the details."
Chen Lin did not ask any more questions, but continued to think and speculate on the consequences of surrendering.
Just after thinking for a while, they felt the surrounding space suddenly twisted, and then the two of them appeared on the narrow path at the origin.
The four robbers stood with swords drawn, looking ferocious and their evil aura was even stronger.
However, this time, in addition to the two of them, there was also a carriage and a coachman on the trail!
