"You, come here."
Kaxiu took a deep breath and loosened his clenched fist. He pointed at the gunman in black in the distance and said.
"Me?" The man pointed at himself.
He jogged all the way and soon approached Hongya and Kaxiu.
"My Lord, what is the matter?"
The gunman appeared ready to be deployed.
Two minutes later, the three people on the street, including Hongya, showed an expression of disbelief, and Hongya couldn't believe it even more.
"Feng Xiang, you mean you just had a conversation with me on the second floor, and ran into Walker on the first floor." He glanced at Kaxiu's face and said, "Are you hallucinating?"
"It can't be an illusion, I'm sure of that." Kaxiu looked around little by little, and finally looked at Hongya: "Even if you have hallucinations, I won't. You should know in your heart that I won't joke at this time." The expression on his face was very serious.
“It’s not an illusion…” Hongya touched his beard subconsciously.
“Could it be the ghost of the legendary Mensa Village?”
The tall and thin gunman said.
"How could there be ghosts in this world? Don't talk nonsense."
Red Fang glared at the gunman and continued, "Rather than the so-called illusory ghosts, I believe that it is the Sand and Dust Organization playing tricks. They are using unknown means to scare us."
Kaxiu did not answer this question. His expression gradually calmed down, his eyes were still gloomy and cold, and he spoke slowly.
"Don't waste time here, just go to the next location. Just like here, I have a bad feeling about this."
A few minutes later.
Several people came to a rich family's house.
It is a miniature manor layout with a slightly higher wall outside. The ornamental trees originally planted inside have grown all over the yard as no one has taken care of them for decades.
The branches were placed on the top of the wall, and as the wind and waves rubbed against the white wall, a series of tearing and crackling sounds were made.
Hongya took the lead, and everyone pushed open the rotten iron gate and walked in.
In front of me, under the dim sky, a four-story gray-white villa came into view. The walls were originally brightly colored, but now they were covered with mottled marks from wind and rain.
The cast iron lamp stands on the building have also become rotten.
The cross windows on the front opened to both sides, and the joints were rusted. They swayed in the wind, as if they would fall off at any time.
Fortunately, the whole villa is not covered with vines like other houses, and it looks quite good at first glance.
Everyone went to the first floor of the villa, and shouted the name of the member stationed in the assassination department as last time. But Kaxiu's ominous premonition came true, and that member disappeared.
Only shouts echoed in the empty hall.
Everyone came to the second floor. This villa was even bigger than it looked from the outside. There were many corridors and rooms on the second floor.
Although covered with dust, they are still in good condition.
"Squeak~"
Kaxiu looked at the gray-white wooden door in front of him, stretched out his hand and gently pushed it open, and walked in. Inside was an expected scene, with thick dust all over the floor. Every step Kaxiu took forward left a footprint, accompanied by a creaking sound.
The layout of the room is relatively old-fashioned, with a bed, a wardrobe against the wall, a bookshelf, and a decorative vase.
A spider web fills the entire space where the window would be.
Kaxiu looked outside through the gaps in the spider web.
There's nothing unusual here.
He turned his head and suddenly stood there motionless.
In front of Kaxiu was a gray-white door with vague floral patterns on the surface and a rather old-fashioned design.
There's nothing unique or special about it.
However, Kaxiu clearly remembered that he did not close the door when he entered the room. As soon as he turned his head, the door closed without making any sound of bearing friction.
The wooden door made a sharp sound when he pushed it open...
Kaxiu took a few steps forward, grabbed the dusty door handle, and gently pulled it inwards, but it didn't move at all.
He frowned and instantly increased the strength of his palms.
A force beyond the limit of a normal adult suddenly pulled inwards, breaking the door handle and tearing off half of an oval.
Kaxiu took a step back, and with a gloomy look on his face, he crushed the door handle into sawdust. His fist, which was already not small, swelled up inch by inch, and the muscles of his bare forearm piled up like rocks.
"You are playing tricks on me. Open it for me."
He took a step forward and punched out.
A fist slammed against the door, and the wall shook.
The whole room was covered with white wall dust falling down.
Bang!
Another punch, the fist hit like a hammer.
Snap!
The wooden door finally couldn't bear the weight and made a hoarse sound of dying struggle. The door panel was shattered and broke directly in two.
Kaxiu clenched his fists and rushed out quickly.
In the corridor, one meter away, Hongya looked at him in surprise, as if she was frightened by the aura of Kaxiu.
"What's wrong?" Hongya took two steps closer.
"I just entered this room and found the door was closed for some reason. Maybe..." Kaxiu stopped talking and turned to look behind him. He saw an open wooden door intact.
"How could that be? I just broke it..."
Kaxiu turned back again, feeling a chill in his heart. Hongya, who had just been talking, was gone, and the entire alley was empty.
He listened quietly, but there was no sound of Spade "Ace" organization gunmen rummaging through boxes or walking in other rooms on the floor.
There was only the humming sound of air pouring in through the windows and then being expelled from the corridor. The gloomy environment in the corridor was dark and quiet.
Sizzle…
Kaxiu suddenly heard a sound like electric current outside, which was also a bit like the sound of a group of snakes climbing and rubbing on the ground.
He rushed back into the room and stepped onto the side balcony.
night!
The originally dim daytime sky turned into night!
The stars surround the moon, emitting a faint light.
"It's getting weirder and weirder... Did it just become night?"
Kaxiu's heart began to beat faster involuntarily.
The sound of the drums beating sounds like drums.
"Hey! Who are you? Why are you climbing onto my balcony in the middle of the night?!" A male voice suddenly sounded behind me.
Kaxiu turned his head suddenly, and in front of him was a room with the same layout as before, except that there was no dust or cobwebs at all. The walls were white, and the floor was brand new. The bed that was originally rotten and black became clean and tidy, and a sheet was even laid on it.
On the bed, a shirtless man was looking at me angrily. He quickly got up and shouted loudly.
"There's a thief! Catch the thief! There's a thief! There's..."
Kaxiu pressed the balcony railing with his right hand, and then he spun and rolled down. With a snap, he landed quickly on one knee.
As soon as I stood up, the originally hazy shadow became clear again. I turned around and saw that night had turned into day again.
"… "
Kaxiu stood there in silence. The series of changes just now were too natural. He began to doubt whether he really had hallucinations or visions without realizing it.
"Master Feng Xiang, are you okay?"
At the entrance of the villa, several gunmen from the Spade "A" organization rushed over. They were searching the room just now, and heard the sound of something heavy falling outside. They looked out the window and saw Kaxiu falling to the ground.
"I'm fine." Kasu waved his hand.
"Someone fell down?"
Hongya's voice came from the door. He rushed over quickly, but suddenly stopped when he saw Kaxiu: "Hey? Fengxiang, you didn't just..." Hongya seemed to realize something.
"I'm hallucinating too?!"
The mustache on his lips trembled unconsciously.
"Someone is watching!"
Kaxiu keenly sensed a gaze from the left side of the high wall, and he kicked his feet and quickly chased after it.
With a light tap of his toes, the ground sank, and he easily climbed over the wall that was much taller than a normal adult.
He put his feet on the ground and looked towards the end of the alley.
A glimpse of clothing corners flashed by.
Kaxiu immediately chased after him, and with one stride he could run several meters. In a flash, he appeared in another alley. In the dilapidated alley, a tall figure was running wildly.
"stop!"
Kaxiu rushed over again. The speed of the two was much faster than that of a normal person. They could run through an alley in less than a second. At a gray and white corner, Kaxiu turned sharply.
"Stop right there!"
Swish! It was like a painter peeling off the canvas.
The day suddenly turned into night, and the light dimmed extremely. The seamless transition was like the sky was a curtain, and the day was instantly torn into night.
Opposite Kaxiu, a group of villagers holding torches stopped in fear, but then rushed over again shouting.
"Get lost!"
Faced with this strange scene, Kaxiu had no intention of holding back. His strong body rushed forward like an elephant, knocking the villagers who rushed over one by one away.
Some people screamed, while others lost their voice.
Others were frightened, holding torches and carefully leaning against the wall, their faces lit by the fire with a look of fear.
"snort."
Kaxiu ignored these things that he couldn't tell whether they were human or ghosts.
With one step, he crushed a brick. He rushed out like an arrow from a bow. At another corner, the sky changed. The dark that was pitch black was replaced by dim light. Kaxiu saw a figure in the distance gradually moving away.
Looking up, you can see a church that is obviously taller than the buildings next to it. It is a typical spire building, with a gray and white classical style, and a broken cross on the top. Below the long mountain-shaped window is a statue of the Holy Spirit.
"Towards the church..."
Kaxiu retracted his gaze and chased after him with all his might.
One hundred meters away from Mensa Church, in a gray alley, the tall figure who had been running madly suddenly stopped because there was another person blocking the way ahead.
Kaxiu stood in the middle of the road like a wall.
He looked at the man in front of him.
He had short hair like a steel needle, deep and gloomy facial features, and an inexplicable evil aura on his face. There was a silver metal ring in his ear, which was slightly larger than a thumb.
Kaxiu's eyes lingered mainly on the man's hands.
"Haha, no need to look. I am number eight of the Sand Dust Organization. I never thought that you could find this place..."
The man with the earrings had a cold look on his face.
"Did you do all that ghost stuff just now?"
Kaxiu narrowed his eyes unkindly.
"What do you mean by playing tricks?" A flash of doubt flashed across the face of the man with earrings. "If you mean the disappearance of the killer you stationed here, then it was me. I still remember that he screamed miserably when he died an hour ago. Tsk tsk... I cut the tendons of his feet. Oh, and the tendons of his hands on his upper body."
A cruel smile appeared on his face, and the silver earrings on his earlobes swayed, and there seemed to be some blood on them.
"It was you who did it!"
Kaxiu was filled with anger and fear of the Sand Dust Organization. The unbelievably real illusion just now was actually created by Sand Dust, and he was caught before he could even react. Sand Dust's background should not be underestimated.
He clenched his fists slightly, and decided to burst out with all his strength in an instant to kill his opponent, in order to prevent the illusion just now from appearing again during the fierce battle, and put him in a dangerous situation.
"Haha, you look impressive. You must be a senior member of the Assassination Department of Spade Ace. Let me, No. 8, test your skills..."
The man with earrings swung his hands, and a pair of brown leather boxing gloves were put on his hands at some point. There were also conical iron blocks on the surface of the gloves to increase the lethality of his punches.
"Elephant sound!"
Kaxiu sprinted forward with all his strength, and the muscles that bulged all over his body instantly made his loose clothes bulge. A fierce and powerful aura burst out, and his right arm expanded twice in succession.
With a shrill sound like an elephant's cry, the fist moved forward rapidly.
"What?!"
The man with the earrings lost sight of Kaxiu in an instant. He quickly activated the Black Blood Seal and released it, instantly transforming into a small giant with bulging muscles. His fist as big as a sandbag also smashed in front of him.
Bang! Bang!
Two muffled sounds echoed in the alley.
Kaxiu lowered his head and looked at the black fist pressed against his chest. The clothes on his chest had been torn into pieces and fell off.
“Cough cough cough!”
Number 8 coughed with bloodshot eyes, and he lowered his head as well. A rock-white fist half the thickness of his chest pierced through him like an iron rod, and blood flowed out along the hole.
"I... Number Five will help me get revenge! Well, it will only take him a dozen seconds to get over from the church, you wait and get off..."
With a "puff", Kasu pulled out his bloody hand.
The man with earrings fell to the ground with an unwilling look.
Kaxiu supported his chest with his left hand, feeling an uncomfortable sensation as if something hard was pressing against it. He had sustained some minor injuries from No. 8's punch. Kaxiu shook his hand and breathed a sigh of relief.
The scene before my eyes suddenly turned into darkness.
In the blink of an eye it was daytime again.
"I'm still under the influence of hallucinations. I was right to attack suddenly just now. If I had been in the middle of a fight like that, I would have been seriously injured if not dead. The outcome of a master's fight is only a matter of seconds..."
Kaxiu turned his head and looked at the church in the distance. If he guessed correctly, it was probably the antique transfer center of the Sand Dust Organization. The antique goods might be stored in the basement.
Half a minute later, Kaxiu appeared at the door of the church. It was a huge white arch with religious carvings on it.
Not far from the archway is the main door of the Mensa Church. At this moment, the door is not closed. Instead, it is ajar. If you have good eyesight, you can see the scene inside.
Kaxiu looked inside cautiously.
The hall was in a mess. There seemed to be black and red liquid solids on the ground, like blood. There seemed to be broken limbs? From his perspective, he could see two or three people lying on the ground, one of whom had his right hand pressed flat on the ground.
The fingertips were bleeding and extending forward.
On the back of the hand, the number five was faintly visible.
Kaxiu still remembers the last words of No. 8 not long ago, but now No. 5 of Shachen is dead. Which force did this
There was the sound of footsteps in the church.
Kaxiu turned his head and looked again.
In the center of the stumps, one could see a man in a black robe with old hands and blood dripping from his fingertips.
He was finishing off each person one by one, and every time his right hand flickered, a member of the Sand and Dust Organization would have his head chopped off. Blood splattered everywhere, and the scene was bloody and terrifying.
ps: It seems that many book lovers don’t like the recent plot very much. It’s my problem. My writing skills are not good enough. The sense of anticipation may have dropped significantly, and the sense of disconnection may also be quite serious.
The follow-up reading has dropped by about half.
I will try to keep this plot brief. I will probably go straight to the next flashback the day after tomorrow. The third stage of the Wind Ivory Pendant is finished, and it is a happy ending. That's it...
