Infinite Puzzle City

Chapter 230: Group Fight? What a coincidence, I like it too
"grandfather!!"

Sun Miao was weak to begin with, but when he saw his grandfather lying on the ground, he didn't care about anything else and got up and rushed over.

Everyone was still in shock, shocked at Li Jingqi's strength, and also shocked that their old brother of so many years had died right under their noses.

“One palm!!”

Mr. Xie's eyes widened and the corners of his lips twitched.

The Sun and Xie families have been friends for many years, and both of them are genuine bandits with extraordinary martial arts skills.

He knew best how powerful Lao Sun's Iron Sand Palm was. Even if he had the skill of Eighteen Falls with a Touch of Clothes, he would not dare to show off in front of Lao Sun.

But just now, when Lao Sun and Li Qijing faced each other with their palms, he clearly saw that the bones in Lao Sun's palms were deformed, and even the iron sand poison in the palm of his hand was dispersed by the palm.

When the two collided, Lao Sun's iron sand palm was as vulnerable as an egg hitting a stone.

When he looked at Li with surprise again, it was more like he was looking at a monster.

Everyone was shocked, and even Xiao Ran felt the absurdity of having to cling to someone powerful.

"wrong!!"

Xiao Ran quickly forced himself to calm down and quickly analyzed the current situation.

On the surface, Li Jingqi stated publicly that he was his apprentice, and he would kill everyone who stayed here one by one.

It seems that he has relied on Li Jingqi's thigh.

But in fact, this is not a good thing.

This guy was clearly using himself as bait to force the guy hiding in the dark and spreading rumors to come out and deal with him.

If the other party does not come out, Li Jingqi will kill everyone present and take himself away, and the other party will completely miss the opportunity to snatch the treasure from him.

Li Jingqi had just made it clear that no matter whether people wanted to kill him or take the bracelet from his arm, he would not interfere.

This means that everyone wants to kill me within a limited time, so I will be killed without any mercy.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ran threw out the chips in his hand without any hesitation, in exchange for the wish to recover his body.

As the chips were thrown out, dots of fluorescent light shone on Xiao Ran's body.

In an instant, Xiao Ran's condition was restored to its best level.

Then he took out the [Guillotine] and ran towards Beimang Mountain without looking back.

I don’t know if it’s because of the characteristics of the [Scholar] profession.

Xiao Ran's thinking became more and more agile. He completed a series of actions including analysis, action, and escape in an instant. At this moment, everyone was still shocked by the strength shown by Li Jingqi.

When they realized belatedly that Xiao Ran had started to run away, their minds slowly began to come to their senses.

"kill him!!"

Mr. Hu had no time to take revenge at this time. If he didn't kill this guy now, he would probably have no chance next time.

As Mr. Hu finished his words, another group of people jumped out and chased in the direction where Xiao Ran was fleeing. They were Liu Sanxiang and his group.

"Brother, don't run, we are here to help you!!"

Liu Sanxiang shouted to Xiao Ran.

However, after hearing Liu Sanxiang's words, Xiao Ran ran even faster.

help me??
Help me to go to heaven?
I'm not Tang Sanzang, is it your turn to help me?
"Shanlong, let's do it."

Seeing Xiao Ran running faster and faster, the people around Liu Sanxiang could no longer hold back.

"Go ahead, but try not to kill him!"

Although Shanlong has not had much contact with Xiao Ran, he still values Xiao Ran's abilities very much.

It would be best if we could win the other party over, but if not, and we really have no choice, then we can only kill him.

After receiving the order, several people immediately took out the cursed objects.

For a moment, all kinds of cursed objects flashed with strange luster.

"Ghost bird!"

A faint light burst out from a person's body, and then his speed suddenly increased. In just a moment, he was already behind Xiao Ran.

"Kid, I told you to stop! Didn't you hear me?"

The person came so fast that it was difficult for people to react. Under the sleeves, the tattoos on the arms flashed, and then two large snakes tattooed on them came to life from the tattoos.

The two giant snakes had very strange shapes, with metallic scales all over their bodies, thick barbs, and two ice-blue beads in their mouths.

The big snake opened its mouth and spit out a stream of cold air towards Xiao Ran.

Wherever the cold current passed, the surrounding area was quickly covered by a layer of ice and frost.

Xiao Ran frowned upon seeing this. This was a D-level profession, worshiping evil.

This profession is very special. All abilities are related to the tattoos on the body. After the profession is combined with the cursed object, the tattoo will be strengthened or blessed.

The stronger the tattoo, the higher the power it can unleash, but the consumption is also greater.

What Xiao Ran hated most was encountering this kind of attack method with magical attributes. Seeing the cold current coming over, he immediately took out the [Liuguang Eight Treasures Mirror] and quickly activated the mirror.

E-level cursed item [Flowing Light Eight Treasures Mirror·Scholar]

Privilege 1: Flash Escape
After activation, it will emit a dazzling light to interfere with the vision of surrounding enemies, and instantly escape to the place where the mirror shines.

Cooling time: 10 minutes
Privilege 2: Refraction

After activation, the next time you use the Flash Escape, it will split into an equal number of clones to interfere.

(The number of clones is based on the number of people disturbed by the strong light of the glare escape!)

"activation!!"

As Xiao Ran thought of it, a dazzling light suddenly burst out from his body.

This caught the people chasing behind them off guard, and they were just waiting for the moment when the strong light flashed.

Everyone blinked, only to see that Xiao Ran's figure in front of them split into several parts and quickly dispersed in all directions.

Even the cold current that had originally enveloped Xiao Ran was gone.

However, such little tricks did not cause any interference to Liu Sanxiang and others. They had been beginners for much longer than Xiao Ran, and they had no idea how many times they had encountered such little tricks.

“Fire Eyes!!”

"Prophet's Dust!!"

Some people continued to use their skills, their pupils flashing with fire, and they locked onto Xiao Ran's true body at a glance.

At the same time, a wisp of dust flew up, and then all the other clones disappeared.

The corner of Xiao Ran's mouth twitched. Facing this group of experienced beginners, it seemed that his own methods were not enough.

Fortunately, his martial arts skills were pretty good, and he moved left and right using the houses in the alley, so his speed was quite fast.

A group of people chased after Xiao Ran. Except for Liu Sanxiang, Wuxiantang, Zhou, Yang and others, as well as many old masters of the martial arts world followed closely behind.

Some people went there for Xiao Ran, some went there to kill Li Jingqi for revenge, and of course there were also some people who just wanted to watch the fun.

After all, this incident is enough to influence the world for decades to come, and there are very few opportunities to witness history with one's own eyes.

Of course, not everyone can afford the price of this excitement. Li Jingqi followed the crowd at a leisurely pace, counting numbers silently in his mouth.

Every time he counts to three, he will kill someone.

The target is random, and the method of action is also random.

Now a vicious circle of cat eating mouse and mouse eating elephant is formed. If Li Jingqi is the elephant, then Xiao Ran is undoubtedly the mouse.

And it's a mouse being chased by a group of cats.

At this time, apart from Zhao Qingming and his other good brothers, the only person he could trust was his master.

Apart from them, Xiao Ran didn't dare to trust even the elders from the Zhou, Yang and other families.

If you don't run, you won't even know how you died.

"Brother, don't run away. We don't want to hurt you. We just want to talk to you!!"

Shanlong continued to shout.

Xiao Ran was too lazy to pay attention to him. As Beimang Mountain got closer and closer, the air around him suddenly became quiet. Xiao Ran suddenly felt an uncontrollable sense of horror.

He turned his head suddenly and saw a huge bow aimed at him about forty meters away.

The backbone of this bow actually looked like it was made from the spine of some animal, and the pale bowstring was obviously made from the thick tendons that had been peeled off from a wild beast alive. It was so thick that it was almost as thick as the diameter of a human thumb.

What’s breathtaking is that the bow is full and the arrow is drawn.

The thumb-thick bowstring was stretched taut, and the bow was pulled to a full moon position. The arrow on the bow was aimed at Xiao Ran.

"Taurus!!!"

The moment he saw the bow, the information he got from the memories of the spirit snake and the tiger emerged in Xiao Ran's mind.

Among them, Taurus is a rare professional master of all three series.

With the blessing of three professions: robber, sixth sense, and weapon forger, Taurus is the strongest among the twelve zodiac signs of Changchun Society.

That bone bow is Taurus's iconic weapon.

"boom!!"

The moment Xiao Ran turned around to look at the other person, he heard a "bang", which was the sound of the bowstring being released.

The dull sound came first, like a sharp sword attacking.

The sound seemed to be able to penetrate his skin and bones, and even reach deep into his internal organs.

Xiao Ran's face turned pale and he felt a pain from inside to outside.

This feeling……

It feels like when you sneeze, but only half of the sneeze ends and the other half explodes in your body.

Immediately afterwards, an arrow shot through the darkness like a meteor, creating a blinding light.

The iron arrow was flashing with the mark of the curse, and it was obviously the same as the katana that Xiao Ran had bought before, both of which were products of being strengthened by beginners.

The arrow flashed, and in the blink of an eye it was within three meters of Xiao Ran! He didn't even have time to react, dodge, or parry!!!
"boom!!"

Everyone watched as Xiao Ran's body flew out with him. Dust flew everywhere and the houses behind him collapsed.

"Fuck, Taurus is a lunatic!"

Upon seeing this, Shanlong and the others slowed down their pace and watched Taurus walk out slowly from a distance. The large bone bow in his hand was slowly retracted into his body.

Behind Taurus, there is a short man, who is the Rat in the Chinese zodiac.

Rat is good at hiding, always likes to hide in the shadows and wait for the opportunity, either not taking action, or killing the enemy with one strike.

He is a single D-level profession, a professional astrologer, which is a very unpopular profession.

Bringing Taurus here early is a good calculation. They will play a huge role here.

Seeing the Rat, Shanlong had to endure it no matter how unhappy he was.

Even though astrologers have low combat power, they may not even be stronger than E-level professionals if fighting alone.

But if you can't kill this guy, then you'll have to live in fear every day from now on.

This guy can calculate the time perfectly and surprise you, just like Xiao Ran. If he doesn't attack, it's fine, but once he attacks, Xiao Ran will be caught off guard.

"Go and see if anyone is dead?"

Shanlong hurriedly asked his men to look for Xiao Ran's body, and he slowly walked to Zishu and complained, "Zishu, you had already calculated it, why didn't you tell us in advance, making it so hard for us to chase you?"

The Rat looked very young, but he gave people a feeling of being old and frail. With his hands behind his back and bent over, he simply said to the Mountain Dragon's complaint, "The secret of heaven cannot be revealed."

"cut!"

Shanlong curled his lips, but didn't dare to say anything more.

At this time, three people had already rushed into the ruins.

Looking at the hand that was pressed under the brick, the dangling silver bracelet seemed to be free of dust.

Seeing this, the three men's eyes lit up, and one of them stepped forward and prepared to take off the bracelet.

But at this moment, there was a sudden flash in front of his eyes, and a maple leaf flew past in front of him, making the man hesitate for a second, but in the next moment, a black shadow pounced on him with a sharp knife in his hand.

The man sensed the murderous intent and suddenly regained consciousness. He had no time to dodge, but the tattoo on his body quickly materialized, and a brown tortoise shell appeared on his skin.

"Ding ding ding ding~"

The sword technique slashed at the man like a violent storm, but it couldn't even break his skin.

The man sneered when he saw this, but he didn't expect that the next second, he suddenly heard the sound of iron rings colliding in his ears.

Immediately afterwards, the ruins in front of him exploded, and a big knife emerged from the dust with a muffled sound of explosion.

"call!!"

Before the blade arrived, a strong wind came first, like a whirlpool, making a buzzing sound in the ears, and one's consciousness and body seemed to be stirred by an invisible vortex.

In a trance, the man's body stiffened, and it seemed as if a big knife was slashing at his neck in his pupils.

"Be careful!!"

Seeing this, the two companions behind him hurriedly took action. One of them threw out a small shield to block the man, while the other grabbed the man's collar and quickly retreated.

Just as the three of them took a few steps back, they saw Xiao Ran walking out from the dust, with his light golden cloak fluttering in the wind. To their surprise, Xiao Ran was not only still alive, but also had no injuries on his body.

There was only a hideous wound at the corner of his forehead.

It turned out that when the arrow was approaching, Xiao Ran knew he couldn't dodge it, so he immediately summoned the [Golden Cloak] and quickly activated it with the spell [Horizontal Refining].

D-level cursed item: [Golden Cloak·Horizontal Refining]

Privilege 1: Gilded Body

Once activated, the cloak will quickly wrap around the body, forming an all-round armor.

It has extremely strong defense against physical attacks. The stronger the physical attack, the higher the defense.

Duration: 30 seconds

(Note: Ineffective against non-physical attacks.)
Cooling time: 3 hours
Privilege 2: Golden Bucket Turn

When the cloak is attacked by metal, it can quickly devour the metal, absorb the power and properties of the metal, and temporarily increase the defense of the cloak. The stronger the absorbed metal, the higher the defense.

Duration: 10 seconds

Cooling time: 3 hours
(Note 1: The cloak is very heavy, and wearing it will increase your physical strength consumption.)
The arrow just now was blocked by Xiao Ran with his [Golden Cloak], and although he was in the horizontal training mode.

But the professional skills have been improved, and Babao's substitute has reached the level of weapon master in advance.

To be frank, in the Henglian profession, there are few people who are stronger than Xiao Ran.

"Damn, this guy is quite difficult to deal with. Painter, you tie him up while we two make a detour to encircle him!"

Seeing that Xiao Ran was still safe and sound after being shot by Taurus' arrow, the two of them immediately took out the cursed objects and called on their companions to take action.

However, before they finished speaking, the companion they had just rescued became stiff and motionless.

"Painter?"

Upon seeing this, the two men looked at each other and stepped forward to pat the painter on the shoulder.

Looking more closely, I saw that the painter's eyes were wide open and his mouth was slightly open, as if he wanted to say something, but he was no longer breathing.

Looking down again, he saw a short arrow stuck in the painter's throat.

I saw a shadow slowly walking out from the corner behind Xiao Ran, holding a short bow in his hand. It was the archer.

It turned out that Xiao Ran's previous knife attack was just a feint, and the real killer was the archer hiding in the dark.

"Besiege?"

Xiao Ran raised his eyelids, stared at the two people in front of him, and sneered: "What a coincidence, I also like group fights."

As they were talking, two figures, Qian Bingwei and Shen Kuaidao, rushed out from the left and right, and rushed straight towards the two of them...

　It’s a little late today, but the word count for each chapter has exceeded the limit, so I don’t plan to divide it into chapters. You can just read it all in one go.

　　Well... Tomorrow is National Day, so I won't take a break and will update as usual. But I have to tell you in advance that I will take a day off on the 3rd because my mother has a birthday. Although I don't have to take care of it, the whole family will enjoy it, so I won't update on that day.
