The murder of Di Jin caused an uproar in the Night Patrol that night.
Similar killings...
Although there are not many of them in Jinyun City, they do exist.
Even though there are many night patrols in Jinyun City every day, it is impossible to keep a close eye on every corner of Jinyun City.
Normally when such killings occur, the Night Watch will investigate but they won't take it too seriously.
After all, the murderer may have left the city on the same day after killing someone.
Even if I find out, it's useless.
Unless the person killed was a night watchman, that would be a different story.
However, this killing attracted the attention of the Night Patrol.
Because the murdered...
He is a bounty hunter from the Senluo organization!
"Have you confirmed his identity? Is he really a bounty hunter?"
In the lobby of the Night Watch Department.
The captains of the four teams A, B, C and D gathered here at this time.
"Based on the items on this person and his characteristics, we can determine that he is a bounty hunter."
The captain of Team B, with narrow eyes, a dark spot on his face and a serious expression, said affirmatively.
"Preliminary investigation shows that this person sneaked into Jinyun City with a high probability of coming for Cen Qingci."
The captain of Team C, who was tall and looked like an iron tower, added.
Although Cen Qingci is not the only one on the genius bounty list in Jinyun City, he is the only new genius on the list.
Combined with the strength and cultivation of this bounty hunter.
It is not difficult to guess who his target is.
This made the captain of Team A, who had a purple high ponytail, look unpleasant and feel a little scared.
Cen Qingci was the night watchman under her command, so she knew Cen Qingci very well.
Knowing that Cen Qingci’s vigilance is not good.
If it weren't for the mysterious man who took action to deal with the bounty hunter, Cen Qingci would have been in great danger.
"The most important thing right now is to find out who killed this bounty hunter as soon as possible..."
The captain of Team B groaned.
"Judging from the situation at the scene, this bounty hunter was most likely cut in half by a single blow. Only a martial artist at the ninth level of the martial realm could do this!"
"It can also be ruled out that the other party is not our night watchman. If it was done by us night watchmen, there would be no need to hide our heads and tails. Killing the bounty hunter is a great achievement."
"Could it be that the people from the Senluo organization are rebelling?"
As the three captains made their guesses.
The squinty-eyed captain of Team D, who had remained silent the entire time, suddenly stood up, turned around and walked outside.
This made the other three captains stunned.
"What are you doing?"
Upon hearing this, Captain Ding turned around and smiled.
"Instead of guessing here, it is better to report this matter to the director and let him make the decision."
…
After returning to the room, although Xiao Shi could not see the situation among the four captains, he could imagine that this matter would inevitably attract the attention of the top leaders of the Night Patrol.
He was not worried about being exposed.
From beginning to end, he did not reveal any flaws. In the eyes of everyone, he was just an ordinary night watchman of Team D.
No one would pay attention to an ordinary night watchman.
"These bounty hunters... aren't that strong!"
Xiao Shi recalled the entire killing process.
I felt like I was even trying too hard.
Even without using the mark formed by the black ink stone, that strike could still kill it with one blow.
After all, at that time, Di Jin's blood and qi were unstable due to the explosion of his own mark. He would definitely not be able to withstand a full-strength slash from his sword.
This also reduced the threat posed by the bounty hunters.
As early as the first time he heard Yang Zhen and Wang Changhuan mention bounty hunters, Xiao Shi was full of fear of them.
But now after the fight, I found out...
That's it!
That's why.
The main reason was that the bounty hunter this time was completely restrained by him.
The strength of bounty hunters usually lies in their sneak attacks.
To ordinary people, these bounty hunters are like poisonous snakes lurking in the dark. They will always suddenly pounce and deliver a fatal blow when the bounty hunters are at their weakest and least prepared.
However, when Xiao Shi used the enemy detection talisman to turn the hunter into the prey, the bounty hunter's advantage no longer existed.
"Look at what treasures this guy dropped!"
Xiao Shi rubbed his hands expectantly.
Open the storage bag.
Take out the items dropped by the opponent after death.
This is actually a palm-sized mushroom.
Name: Ice Crystal
Type: Natural materials and treasures
Grade: Martial Grade
Introduction: It is shaped like a mouth and has the effect of strengthening the internal organs.
Note: Ice crystals will continue to grow in the body. Do not use if you do not have a strong body.
…
As expected, only powerful warriors who have entered the martial realm can easily drop rare treasures!
Xiao Shi felt ecstatic.
The last time was when a warrior who had reached the seventh level of the martial realm was killed and the rare treasures dropped.
This time, he is a warrior who has entered the eighth level of the martial realm.
These two kills show...
For warriors who have entered the martial realm above the seventh level, the chance of dropping rare treasures is very high.
As long as he kills more warriors of this strength who have entered the martial arts realm, I believe it will not be difficult to collect nine portions of natural treasures and complete nine body refinements.
Under this kind of drop mechanism, warriors below the seventh level of the martial realm suddenly don't seem so attractive anymore.
Although they have a chance to drop rare treasures and other high-quality items, the probability is very small.
It is still faster to kill warriors who have reached the seventh level of the martial realm or above.
Xiao Shi picked up the entire ice crystal, his eyes shining with excitement.
According to the records of the body-building exercise "Nine Refinements of the Vajra Body".
During the nine body refinements after entering the martial realm, there will be some additional changes and improvements after every three successful body refinements.
He really wanted to know what kind of changes and improvements there would be!
Think of this.
Xiao Shi immediately began his third body refining using the ice crystal in his hand.
…
at the same time.
Located in a study in the Night Watch Department.
Captain Ding, with narrowed eyes, stood aside with his hands hanging down.
This incident has been reported to the chief of the Night Patrol Department.
The chief of the Night Patrol is over 40 years old, with phoenix eyes, bags under his eyes, thick eyebrows, and a beard around his mouth that shows his mature masculine charm.
He is graceful and dignified.
His powerful cultivation that surpasses the martial realm makes Jinyun City, where he is in charge, as stable as a rock.
After hearing the report from Captain Ding, he picked up the teacup, blew gently on the boiling hot tea, took a sip, and said indifferently.
“No need to check.”
"Since the other party is unwilling to show up, he must have his reasons."
"He was able to kill a bounty hunter at the eighth level of the martial realm with one strike, and in a very short time, he disappeared without a trace. This is not something that an ordinary martial artist at the ninth level of the martial realm can do!"
"Since the other party has no intention of showing up, if we forcefully try to find him, we will only offend him."
"It is not appropriate to make enemies with such a strong person, but to show goodwill to him."
Captain D nodded and asked in confusion.
"What should be done?"
The Night Watchman took a sip of his tea.
"Now besides us, the Senluo organization must also want to know who killed their bounty hunter. In this case, let's help this strong man and distract him."
"Later you will announce to the public that the person who killed the bounty hunter was an unnamed night watchman."
"On the one hand, it can disrupt the vision of the Senluo Organization."
"On the other hand, we can also use this name to make the Senluo organization wary of us."
Captain Ding's eyes lit up.
I couldn't help but admire the director's calculations.
They all knew that the possibility that this mysterious strong man was the night watchman was almost zero. If they announced to the outside world that the other party was the night watchman, they would be able to help this strong man a lot, disrupt his sight, and win his favor.
At the same time, we can also use this to tell the Senluo organization that there is a mysterious and powerful person in our Night Patrol who specializes in killing bounty hunters!
