Game Hunter - Chapter 20
Chapter 20 A Mansion? Ghost Mansion?
Ou Sheng snorted coldly, “If you don’t tell us Shangguan Wen’s whereabouts, how can we protect him? Do you want to see them die at Shen Shi’s hands?”
Xi Qing smiled bitterly and said, “It’s not that I don’t want to tell you. It’s really hard to say.” The reason why we escaped to Shangxi City earlier was because the Shangguan Clan was the first to notice Shen Shi’s plan and promptly reminded us that we were able to escape. Although we were still in contact privately, we also agreed not to reveal each other’s location. I can’t break my promise, can I? ”
Luo Fei chuckled. He didn’t expect that Xi Qing, who was bending the law for selfish ends, would have a moment to speak his word. However, this made things difficult for Luo Fei and the others. If Xi Qing was unwilling to say anything, how would they find Shangguan Wen’s place of residence?
Just as things were stagnating, it was unexpected that Zuo Jie, who had just escaped from the hospital, would be the first to break the deadlock.
“Since when are you still here to seek credit? Could it be that your so-called credit is more important than human life?”
Zuo Jie didn’t say much. After a few words, he rushed in front of Xi Qing and punched her in the face.
This time, not only was Xi Qing stunned, even Ou Sheng and the others were at a loss as to what to do.
Zuo Jie tugged at Xi Qing and said coldly, “If you don’t say anything today, I’ll beat you until you say it!”
Zuo Jie’s incomparably large fist smashed into Xi Qing’s face, causing his front teeth to collapse. Until the end, Xi Qing could no longer endure the pain. Only then did he tell Shangguan Wen’s address truthfully.
“Sorry, Captain!” Zuo Jie looked at Ou Sheng and laughed dryly, “I can’t control my temper anymore and used violence.”
Ou Sheng didn’t say anything and just looked at Zuo Jie silently. During the special period, he had to use special methods. In fact, Ou Sheng had tacitly acknowledged what had happened just now. Otherwise, with Ou Sheng’s skill, it wouldn’t be difficult to intercept Zuo Jie.
After obtaining Shangguan Wen’s address, Luo Fei and Tang Ran rushed to their destination without stopping.
Looking at the empty space, Luo Fei couldn’t help but frown. Luo Fei asked in surprise, “Is this really the place?”
Tang Ran thought for a moment and said, “He has been punched so many times by Zuo Jie. Logically speaking, there is no need to lie anymore.”
When Luo Fei came to a road sign and saw the information on it, he couldn’t help but be puzzled. This was indeed consistent with the location Xi Qing had mentioned, but why didn’t he see a single house nearby?
Luo Fei carelessly touched the road sign. What he didn’t expect was that he had touched the mechanism on it. The originally deserted wilderness instantly transformed into a luxurious mansion.
Tang Ran suddenly realized, “So it’s virtual image technology. They blocked the house.”
With a nervous mood, the two of them walked into the mansion. It was just that this house was called a luxurious house, but it was actually more like a ghost house.
Luo Fei couldn’t help but swallow his saliva and said, “Tang Ran, I have an ominous premonition!”
“What?” Tang Ran asked in surprise.
Before the two of them could regain their senses, a cold gust of wind blew past. Tang Ran and Luo Fei couldn’t help but shiver.
Accompanied by the cold wind, there were also strange bursts of laughter.
When Luo Fei and the other two looked back, they saw a female ghost with disheveled hair suddenly appear in front of them.
Luo Fei was surprised, “Ghost!”
With the appearance of the female ghost, the entire mansion underwent earth-shattering changes.
The structure of the house changed, and the walls and floor began to move. Luo Fei and Tang Ran entered a maze and immediately fell into it.
The ground started to spray fire, the walls started to form knives, and the ceiling sprayed out a large amount of acid rain. A series of sudden attacks made Luo Fei and Tang Ran very sorry. At this moment, Luo Fei and Tang Ran finally understood what it meant to be in deep water and what it meant to be in a sea of blades, mountains, and fires. Even when they were receiving Ou Sheng’s demon training, they had never experienced such a difficult destruction.
After dodging Blade Mountain Flame Sea’s attack, the two of them were still waiting for more suffering.
The tens of thousands of decibels of noise was deafening, and Luo Fei and Tang Ran were in an extremely miserable state. Even if they covered their ears, it was useless. Their organs were even affected by the noise.
Luo Fei and Tang Ran looked at each other and nodded slightly.
Although the Sharp Wolf had stipulated that game cassettes could only be used against game corpses, it was not against the rules for the two of them to use game cassettes in a situation where their lives were threatened.
Tang Ran used his own ability to change the earplugs, barely able to resist the noise. However, uneven waves rose again and again. After the noise attack ended, a series of shots of light followed.
“Someone must be observing us in secret,” said Rofey as he gestured. “That’s why these attacks come wave after wave.”
Tang Ran nodded and said in sign language, “Then what should we do now?”
Luo Fei pondered for a moment and said, “Dismantle this place. Since someone is secretly observing us, then we will force him to appear.”
Luo Fei used a single move to destroy all phenomena, destroying more than half of the mansion. The mechanisms in the mansion were affected, and most of the mechanisms were invalidated.
Looking at the half-destroyed house, Luo Fei said with satisfaction, “Explosion is art!”
The two of them hadn’t been proud for long, but they didn’t expect that the Sky Descending Prison would trap Luo Fei and Tang Ran in it.
Luo Fei originally wanted to use brute force to destroy the iron prison, but the tens of thousands of volts on it almost made Luo Fei doubt his life. Luo Fei hurriedly let go of his hand, which avoided the fate of being roasted by electricity.
“Are you all right?” Tang Ran was concerned.
Luo Fei said firmly, “It’s fine. Lightning is more energetic and healthier. What does it taste like?”
A strange smell came from the air, and Tang Ran noticed it at the same time.
Tang Ran asked in surprise, “It seems to be gas, but it still has a hypnotic effect …”
Before Tang Ran could finish his sentence, he fainted on the ground. Although Luo Fei was in high spirits, he could not hold on for a while. Luo Fei could not help but close his eyes and fall into a coma.
When Luo Fei and Tang Ran woke up, the two of them were tied to the pillars, and the game cassettes and drives on their bodies were also looted.
Luo Fei and Tang Ran were guarded by a group of black-clothed men. Luo Fei looked at the black-clothed man and smiled bitterly, “Are we breaking into a luxurious mansion or a ghost city? Hey, can’t you guys talk?”
The black-clothed man did not speak. Luo Fei could only mutter to himself, “Looks like you are mute or orphans. Didn’t your parents teach you to speak?”
The black-clothed man still didn’t answer, so Luo Fei had no choice but to give up the idea of talking.
A moment later, a figure walked out of the darkness. Seeing him appear, the black-clothed man made way one after another.
Luo Fei smiled and said, “I know you, Shangguan Wen’s father, Shangguan Wen!”
Shangguan Wen looked at Luo Fei and Tang Ran and questioned, “You two, why are you barging into my house? Not many people know my address. Tell me, how did you know about this place?”
“If you want us to talk, then I will? Then wouldn’t we lose face!” Rofey mocked, “Call Daddy. Perhaps I’ll tell you the truth when I’m happy.”
Shangguan Wen was furious by Luo Fei’s words. This was the first time he had seen someone tied up, yet he was still so arrogant!
Shangguan Wen pointed his gun at Luo Fei’s head and said, “Needless to say, I’ll shoot you in one shot!”
“If you have the guts, just try!” Facing Shangguan Wen’s threat, Luo Fei’s face was filled with disdain.
Just as the two of them were at loggerheads, Tang Ran opened his mouth in time to ease the situation.
“We are members of the Hunting Corps and Sharp Wolf’s banner. We came here this time to protect you and your family …”
Tang Ran explained everything to Shangguan Wen, including that Shen Shi was pursuing Shangguan Wen about this matter.
After some deliberation, Shangguan Wen finally chose to believe in Tang Ran. As a result, Tang Ran and Luo Fei were untied.
Shangguan Wen said indifferently, “Since you and Xi Qing know each other, I have nothing to say. I’m sorry for offending the two of you, but please understand that we are being hunted down by the game corpses, so we have to be careful in everything. That’s why we designed this house full of mechanisms.”
Luo Fei directly threw a glance at Shangguan Wen, not giving him any face at all.
Tang Ran could only say, “We can understand your inconvenience, but since we have found you, please cooperate with us and move to another place as soon as possible!”
“No, I won’t leave, and neither will my wife and son!”
What Tang Ran never expected was that Shangguan Wen would refuse so straightforwardly. Tang Ran hurriedly asked, “Why? Isn’t it not good to accept the protection of the army?”
“Accepting the protection of the army means that our personal freedom will be restricted and that we will always be under the surveillance of your Shangguan Wen,” Hunter Corps explained. “Neither my family nor I can accept that.”
“But without Hunter Corps’s protection, what about Shen Shi? He has now mutated into Game corpse and is frantically pursuing your whereabouts!”
“You don’t have to worry about this!” Shangguan Wen said confidently, “With such a mechanism city in hand, even if Shen Shi comes, he will definitely never be able to return. However, you guys have also experienced the mechanism inside just now. There is no need for me to say anything else about its power.”
Luo Fei chuckled at this. The reason why they were captured just now was because they had carelessly lost control of Jingzhou. Although the mechanism of this mansion was exquisite, it was obviously not enough to deal with Game corpse. As long as the locust monster paid a little attention, it would be completely easy to crack the mechanism here.
“You don’t want to think about it anymore?”
Tang Ran originally wanted to convince Shangguan Wen, but Shangguan Wen was determined not to accept the army’s help. There was no other way, so Luo Fei and Tang Ran could only leave tactfully. This time, the two of them had been shut out.
On the way back, Luo Fei kept complaining, “That old fellow is an old stubborn, stubborn fellow. Only when he really meets Game corpse will he understand what a real monster is!”
Tang Ran was also very helpless. If Shangguan Wen did not accept their help, it was impossible for the two of them to forcefully tie up Shangguan Wen’s family and leave.
On their way back, Luo Fei and Tang Ran suddenly received a piece of news that shocked them.
“Luo Fei, Tang Ran!” On the other end of the communicator, Li Li anxiously said, “The locust monster has appeared, and the signal indicates that it is rushing to your side!”
“What!” Luo Fei and Tang Ran’s eyes widened at the same time.
Luo Fei hurriedly said, “Not good, Shangguan Wen’s family is in danger, quickly leave!”
Tang Ran immediately stopped the car and changed directions.
On the other side, through the surveillance cameras, Shangguan Wen had also detected the existence of the grasshopper monster.
Shangguan Wen sneered, “Is this your mutated Game corpse? I’ve been waiting for you for a long time. It’s time for this chase to come to an end.”
