I'm being held captive by a monster

Chapter 221 Assassination!

"call……"

Lin Xing'an took a shower and planned to close his eyes and rest for a while, but he unexpectedly fell asleep.

He glanced at the time and it was already past six in the evening.

I slept for more than two hours without realizing it.

Absorbing the darkness is tiring...

Lin Xing'an couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Normally, whether he was training in the gravity room or practicing controlling the ghost realm, he would not be so tired that he would fall asleep.

The only two times I fell asleep directly like this were because of absorbing darkness.

"call……"

After washing his face, Lin Xing'an started walking around the house again.

"There are basically no pots and pans in the kitchen for cooking. I need to buy some..."

"There's only one roll of toilet paper in the bathroom, which is not enough. There are also no bath towels or anything like that."

"I only have one pillow and quilt. I can't be the only one living in this house from now on..."

"If we're entertaining guests... we'll need a table and chairs..."

Lin Xing'an took a small notebook and wrote down the missing items while looking through them.

Of course, he was speaking to Xu Zhe.

If you like listening, listen more.

Xu Zhe's mentality would naturally be affected if he couldn't hear anything useful.

Lin Xing'an also smiled.

After making the list, he stretched and sat cross-legged on the bed.

"call……"

After exhaling lightly, Lin Xing'an first dispersed the darkness in his body to the surroundings, carefully covering the entire building.

Then he severed his connection with the darkness, allowing the darkness that was scattered like dust to float freely.

"Belief……"

After reviewing the new abilities he had acquired in the morning, Lin Xing'an felt his "faith" again.

The reason why he values this ability so much is because the power that this ability can unleash has nothing to do with level or physical condition.

The only thing that is related to it is the strength of one's faith.

In other words, if in the future Lin Xing'an is completely exhausted due to a rollback, he will not even have the energy to control Yin Hui.

If there is the attribute of "faith conversion", there will be an extra trump card.

Or it could be said to be an extra "safety belt", a "safety belt" that can release abilities without any physical effort.

"Faith in specific people, in specific beings..."

Although he knew that he might not have obtained this attribute at all, Lin Xing'an still wanted to give it a try.

What if?
What if he has obtained this attribute but just hasn't triggered it?

but……

This specific existence made Lin Xing'an confused.

He has many people he wants to protect, but he has no faith in them at all.

The only thing that is somewhat hooked is...

The image of Yu Yu naturally emerged in Lin Xing'an's mind.

On a sunny afternoon, Yu Yu smiled gently, held his hand, and whispered, "Don't be afraid."

"Mother……"

Lin Xing'an murmured as if he sensed something.

And at this moment, a force, like fresh water breaking through the ice in spring, quietly flowed into his limbs and bones.

"..."

Lin Xing'an opened his eyes.

There was a look of surprise and realization on his face, as if to say, "So that's how it is."

The so-called faith and the so-called "mother" are nothing more than the first existence that comes to mind when despair occurs.

People who burn incense to pray to God and have no one to rely on will think of the "God" they worship when they lose hope and have nothing.

Gluttons will think of their "mother" who is omnipotent to them.

And this "mother", for human beings, is just a mother.

It is the mother that everyone has, who brings them into this world.

It turns out that faith is so simple.

Lin Xing'an sat on the bed, feeling the strength brought to him by this faith. For a moment, his heart was filled with complicated emotions.

"hiss!"

Just when Lin Xing'an was stunned, a feeling of electric shock suddenly flashed through his mind!
The tendon representing the dangerous valve suddenly trembled!

dangerous? !

Lin Xing'an suddenly looked out the window, and the hairs on his body instantly stood up!

My body almost instinctively jumped up from the bed!

next second!
A sound broke through the air!

The glass shattered!

An arrow suddenly flew through the window, almost hitting Lin Xing'an's ear, and hit the wall with a clang!

Blasting through the entire wall!
"..."

A cold sweat broke out on Lin Xing'an's body!
If it weren't for his danger warning ability, he wouldn't have died immediately, but he would have probably shed some blood...

And this can no longer be called an arrow, it would not be an exaggeration to call it a javelin!

"Kakaka..."

The arrow made a sound as it passed through the wall.

Then, it burst out from the wall as if it was controlled!

After circling in the air, it went straight for Lin Xing'an's head!

It's people...

Lin Xing'an had already established contact with Yin Hui without making a sound.

Following the trajectory of the arrow, he saw a shirtless man with a bow and arrow on his back sitting cross-legged in the snow on the roof of the 12th outermost building in the community, 500 meters away.

As his fingers moved, the arrow flew nimbly in the air.

"boom!"

After making sure that the person's real body was far enough away, Lin Xing'an released the ghost domain, covering the entire floor!
Then he nimbly turned sideways in the room and dodged the incoming arrow!

But in mid-air, the arrow, which was originally more than one meter long and as thick as an arm, suddenly trembled!
It instantly split into countless arrows the size of normal feather arrows like a shadow clone.

The arrowheads of these feather arrows were shining with a cold light, just like a school of fish gathered in the deep sea that suddenly scattered when encountering a natural enemy, attacking Lin Xing'an from all directions!
"Ouch!"

Lin Xing'an raised his eyebrows.

Any new tricks?
That’s enough, time to go…

The scattered darkness made Lin Xing'an realize that the gluttonous ghost in the building was coming.

If the guy who attacked him doesn't leave now, it will be too late.

Thinking of this, Lin Xing'an also sighed lightly.

Faced with the crazy arrows, he did not dodge, but stood behind the wall and found an angle.

He caught two arrows in mid-air, and without suppressing any force, he broke them with two fingers.

At the same time, he grabbed the bed sheet with his other hand and rolled it into the air!
The countless arrows were instantly caught in the sheets!
"Um?!"

The man on the top floor of Building 12 felt a tremor in his heart!
No matter how he controlled them, these feather arrows could no longer escape Lin Xing'an's control!
"Brother Hang! It's time to retreat! Those beasts are looking for you!"

A voice came from his earphones.

Zhang Hang also stood up with a frown.

He drew his bow and shot the arrow into the air, then caught it at the same time.

Carried by the arrow he shot himself, he flew into the distance!

"call……"

Lin Xing'an breathed a sigh of relief when he felt Yinhui flying away.

Then he immediately drew out two arrows.

Let the Yin Hui turn into a bow, simulating arrows shooting at his abdomen, chest, collarbone, arms, and calves.

Then there were a few small wounds on his neck, face, and body caused by arrows.

"Junior! You..."

Ke Ke broke open the door and saw Lin Xing'an gritting his teeth to pull out the arrow from his abdomen.

Blood instantly gushed out from the blood hole, forming a small blood lake under Lin Xing'an's body.

"Damn beast..."

Keke's face turned pale, he gritted his teeth, and a bloodthirsty look appeared in his eyes.

But he immediately pounced on Lin Xing'an and treated his wounds.

“…Senior…”

"It's okay, it's not serious." Ke Ke signaled Lin Xing'an not to move.

But Lin Xing'an, with a pale face, grabbed Ke Ke's hand and forced himself to sit up.

"Senior, my ghost domain hasn't dissipated yet. People and animals should be inside. They can't escape."

As he spoke, he felt dizzy.

It seemed like he finally couldn't hold on any longer and fell to the ground.

And the ghost realm also quietly dispersed.

"boom!"

Keke immediately released his ghost domain.

It’s two sizes bigger than Lin Xing’an’s.

"Just take it, it's useless."

Zhang Guang's voice came.

He was wearing only pajamas and slippers, and his hair was still wet, as if he had just taken a bath.

"Zhang Hang can control the arrow from up to one kilometer away."

"Lin Xing'an's ghost domain isn't that wide. I've already notified Xu Zhe to search for humans and animals on the outskirts."

"Zhao Wuji will be here soon."

He picked up a feather arrow and said.

"Zhang Hang..."

Ke Ke also took back the ghost domain and carried Lin Xing'an to the bed.

Ranked ninth on the most wanted list of people and animals.

His ability is [Arrow], which allows him to control arrows.

The strength is B-level.

Two levels stronger than Lin Xing'an.

This level difference can even allow him to ignore Lin Xing'an's weaknesses and kill him by force.

Being able to hold on to this extent, Lin Xingan has done his best...

"Tsk..."

Zhang Guang looked at the devastated battlefield, his expression becoming increasingly gloomy.

"Three minutes. Lin Xing'an held on for at least three minutes. In the City Light Building, there was no response within three minutes..."

"If we had known that in a minute, Lin Xing'an wouldn't have been injured so badly, and that beast wouldn't have been able to escape."

He said coldly.

This sentence also made Keke, whose attention was all on Lin Xing'an, wake up from his dream.

Xu Zhe, Xu Zhe clearly asked her to install eavesdropping equipment in Lin Xing'an's house. How could Xu Zhe not hear such a loud noise?
Now that you heard it, why didn't you...

"coming!"

A series of small footsteps were heard.

Zhao Wuji's lower body turned into a centipede. He stepped on the wall and came in front of Lin Xing'an in the blink of an eye.

After releasing the ghost domain immediately, he treated Lin Xing'an's wound.

"Has the person been found?"

"We only found the sniper's location. The sniper slipped away very quickly. It was a premeditated attack and they were very well prepared."

Ke Ke turned around and saw Xu Zhe who was also checking the situation on the scene.

"Keke, come here."

Without waiting for Keke to speak, Xu Zhe took the initiative to wave to Keke.

While Zhang Guang was checking the bedroom where the arrow was first shot, the two men came outside the door.

"Find a chance to check the monitoring equipment."

"There are five in total, and three of them are probably broken."

Xu Zhe moved his ears and spoke calmly.

Keke was stunned.

"...Brother Xu, you shouldn't have been monitoring Lin Xing'an the entire time, right?"

She asked after a moment's silence.

"Of course we've been monitoring them. We can't let our guard down when dealing with people like them."

"...Then you...then didn't you hear it when the attack started?"

Keke's voice trembled a little.

"uh-huh."

"You just... listened? The whole thing?"

"Yeah, what else?"

Xu Zhe chuckled and said.

"..."

Ke Ke looked at Xu Zhe, and a hint of pain appeared in his eyes.

She was just holding Xu Zhe and not monitoring him all the time, so she didn't realize at the first moment that Lin Xing'an was attacked.

But the reality is that Xu Zhe has been listening...

He heard that Lin Xing'an was attacked, but he did nothing...

This……

"Director, Lin Xing'an was facing a Class B human-beast that was two levels stronger than him. He held out for over three minutes and could have died at any moment!"

Koko said in disbelief.

"Isn't he still alive? Moreover, this sudden attack by the man and animal can help me test Lin Xing'an."

Xu Zhe spread out his hands and said indifferently.

"But... I'm lucky I didn't die!"

"Lin Xing'an's waist was pierced by an arrow, and the wound in his chest almost pierced his heart. There was also a wound on his collarbone. If it had been a little off, Lin Xing'an's brain would have been gone!"

"Not to mention all the minor injuries."

When Keke thought of the many injuries Lin Xing'an had suffered, he felt a surge of fear!
If Lin Xing'an really had an accident...

Then wouldn't Xu Zhe, who heard all this, and she, who knew all this, become accomplices of the beasts?!
"Director, this concerns Lin Xing'an's life! You could have immediately..."

"So what? You came here the moment you heard about it? You came here to let others know that I had bugged Lin Xing'an's house?"

Xu Zhe looked at Ke Ke in surprise.

"Keke, why have you regressed? Why are you thinking so one-sidedly?"

"But what you said does make some sense..."

Xu Zhe narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Lin Xing'an's ability is just [Tide]. Zhang Hang is so much stronger than him. How come Lin Xing'an didn't die?"

He rubbed the ring on his hand and muttered.

Keke's eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe that Xu Zhe would say that.

"Strange... I've fought this beast before, and Zhang Hang's first arrow was the hardest to dodge..."

"Especially after such thorough preparation..."

"Logically speaking, Lin Xing'an's level is unavoidable..."

"So, either that beast really made a mistake and Lin Xing'an was lucky enough, or Lin Xing'an was hiding his abilities..."

Xu Zhe's breathing became more and more rapid, like a shark that smelled blood.

"Keke, find a chance to reinstall the bug. Don't worry about the rest."

He waved at Keke.

Then he walked into Zhao Wuji's ghost domain and looked at Lin Xing'an's wound.

Ke Ke stared at Xu Zhe's back.

My heart sank to the bottom little by little.

Xu Zhe, how could it become like this?
He actually allowed people and animals to attack him?

This is simply...

"Keke, what's wrong? You look so bad?"

Zhang Guang's voice came.

"Nothing, just... a little worried about my junior."

Keke shook his head.

In the end, he resisted the urge to tell Zhang Guang about the bug.

No matter what, Xu Zhe... was very kind to her.

Don't worry, junior, it's okay...

Wait until tomorrow, wait for tomorrow's banquet, I will confess my love to you, I will live with you.

I'll protect you...

Keke's clenched fists loosened quietly.

As long as I live with my junior, everything will be fine!
