"These two bounty hunters are not the weakest ones. They are in the ninth level of the martial realm and are not easy to deal with... But with the swamp formation, it is not impossible to kill them."
"The problem is..."
"Should I defeat them one by one, or attack both of them at the same time?"
Xiao Shi currently has two plans.
One set is to attack the bounty hunters hiding in the dark first, kill one, and then deal with the second one, defeating them one by one.
The other set is to attack two bounty hunters at the same time.
The advantage of the first set of plans is that there is less pressure. After all, these two bounty hunters are not the weakest ones who have entered the ninth level of the martial realm. In terms of their own strength, they are stronger than Xiao Shi.
If we defeat them one by one, the pressure and risk will be much smaller.
But the disadvantage is that when you deal with one of them, you may alert the other person and be noticed. After all, the two people are not far apart. If the other person sees that the situation is not good and runs away directly, it will be a loss.
Secondly.
As for the swamp array, it also needs to be used twice, which will directly use up all the remaining times of the swamp array.
Compared with the first plan, the second plan has basically no other disadvantages except that the risk is greater.
Xiao Shi weighed it carefully in his mind.
The decision has been made.
…
night.
There were lightning and thunder and heavy rain.
The dull rumble of thunder echoed between heaven and earth, like the roar of a god.
It was a rainy night.
In this rainy night.
A figure quickly shuttled through the rainy night and appeared silently outside a private house.
Through the induction of qi and blood imprints.
Xiao Shi could see the bounty hunter in the house, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, apparently practicing.
A cold light flashed in his eyes.
The compressed Qi and blood in the body burst out and surrounded the entire body.
A long knife also appeared in his hand.
boom!
His figure flashed forward, smashing the door, and Xiao Shi rushed into the room in an instant.
The long sword whistled, causing a loud bang that tore through the air, and slashed straight towards the bounty hunter who was sitting cross-legged on the bed.
However, at the moment when the long sword fell.
Bounty hunter Luo Fangyi, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes.
There was no panic in his eyes.
It seemed to have been expected.
Although he waited for many days and the other party did not take action, his vigilance did not decrease at all.
Always be on guard.
"Are you finally willing to take action..."
A hint of joy flashed in Luo Fangyi's eyes.
He is not afraid of a sneak attack.
I’m afraid that the other party will keep hiding and refuse to take action.
Now, the wait has finally come.
when!
The long sword slashed on a silver and white shield.
Blocked by this shield.
Although Xiao Shi's sword was powerful and heavy, even with the shield blocking it, Luo Fangyi was still knocked back and hit the wall behind him, but he was not able to kill him with one blow like Xiao Shi did with the previous two bounty hunters.
After seeing that this sword failed to kill the opponent, Xiao Shi stopped attacking and turned away.
"Um?"
This immediately made Luo Fangyi frown.
He didn't expect this person to be so decisive.
After one attack, they retreated directly without any hesitation or stopping.
He had waited for so many days for the other party to make a move, how could he let him escape like this
Immediately chased after him.
at the same time.
In another house not far from this residence.
Another bounty hunter who was always keeping an eye on the developments here noticed the movement here at the first moment.
“This unnamed night watchman finally took action!”
His eyes lit up.
Started paying close attention.
As long as they know who this night watchman is, their mission will be successful.
He saw it immediately.
The figure who had just rushed into the house immediately rushed out again, running all the way.
Behind him was Luo Fangyi who was chasing closely.
"This person actually chose to escape?"
This was something he had not expected.
Then he discovered that the direction the other party was running towards was actually his position.
But he didn't think much about it...
He is quite confident in his ability to hide.
The average bounty hunter is just good at disguise.
And he is not only good at disguise, but also proficient in hiding.
It never occurred to him that the night watchman was coming for him.
until…
The other party rushed to his house at an extremely fast speed, and he suddenly realized that something was wrong!
boom!
Xiao Shi slammed hard into the wall of the house, causing the entire wall to collapse. While breaking the wall and rushing into the house, he slashed at the bounty hunter in the house with the long knife in his hand.
This was completely beyond the expectations of the bounty hunters in the room.
"How did he find me??"
His expression changed wildly.
I never thought that I would be exposed!
Facing Xiao Shi's slashing sword, his reaction was also extremely fast.
Take action to resist immediately.
Under the roar.
His figure was knocked back by Xiao Shi's sword.
Xiao Shi also stopped and did not continue running. He glanced at the bounty hunter who was chasing him from behind.
When Luo Fangyi saw that Xiao Shi had discovered another bounty hunter, Tong Kong also shrank back.
I immediately understood Xiao Shi's intention.
This is obviously an attempt to bring the two bounty hunters together and catch them all in one fell swoop!
Damn it!
How did he find out
Luo Fangyi realized that they had still underestimated the night watchman.
No matter how they disguised themselves or concealed themselves, it seemed to be ineffective in front of the other party.
The other bounty hunter also had a gloomy look on his face.
According to their original plan, he only needed to hide in the dark and confirm the other party's identity without taking any action.
Even if Luo Fangyi died in battle, as long as he could find out the identity of the night watchman and bring the news back to the organization, it would be considered a success.
But now…
He had to take action together with Luo Fangyi.
Either the night watchman dies or both of them die.
There is no way back.
Xiao Shi also felt the murderous intent in the two men's eyes.
Although there would be certain risks in attacking both of them at the same time, Xiao Shi was very confident in the swamp formation.
Moreover, considering all the pros and cons, this is also the method with the least disadvantages.
Think of this.
Xiao Shi took out the formation flag without hesitation and stuck it into the ground.
With the location where the flag was planted as the center, the ground within a radius of 300 meters was suddenly filled with methane gas.
The two bounty hunters were all covered in the range of the formation.
They were both shocked at the same time.
I immediately noticed that the ground beneath my feet began to soften.
That’s not all.
Xiao Shi also took out a bamboo tube.
The mist released from the bamboo tube spread out in an instant.
The methane rising from the ground had already made their vision blurry, and the fog that appeared now directly blocked their vision, causing them to only be able to see things within half a meter around them.
Everything beyond half a meter was obscured by fog and nothing could be seen.
Xiao Shi's figure suddenly disappeared from the eyes of the two bounty hunters.
