"No, they don't have any new and novel methods."
Lu Yan had a headache, sensing that trouble was coming his way. Lamia, however, still had a smile on her face: "That's good, isn't it? It's just a publicity spree. It's better than those organizations' top leaders in Mailong Country personally coming to you to take action."
A five-star card master as powerful as the ancestor of the Wang family is basically strong enough to become the director of the domestic branch of foreign organizations such as the Mailong Kingdom.
The headquarters is reluctant to send 6 or 7 stars here secretly, as they may easily fail in their own country. These are the pinnacle of power of foreign organizations and some small countries, with few exceptions.
Things have already happened. After Lu Yan participated in the festival in Mithril City, he did not stay in Mithril City for long. He took the high-speed rail to Danji City, the city where the next card domain [Danyan Mountain] is located.
It is completely built around the Danyan Mountain. This card domain comes from the world where the sky is round and the earth is square. The mountain is an active volcano the size of a planet, with countless sects located on it.
That’s right, the planet-sized active volcano has an accessible star level of 1-6 stars. All of them can enter except for the top three card masters.
Danji City is the place that produces medicines for Mailong Country. It is the place with the most medicines, all thanks to this huge card area. There are as many medicine cards as you want.
If it weren't for official control, the price of elixirs in the entire city would probably be much higher than outside.
Fengxi's next enhancement card is a medicinal elixir. If you look for it there, you'll have a better chance of finding it. They seem to be holding some kind of investment promotion conference recently...
Lu Yan estimated, and he sat down in his seat wearing a baseball cap, looking out the window at the high-speed train, praying in his heart that there would be no accidents on this high-speed train.
Fortunately, the high-speed train arrived at the station smoothly. It seems that he cannot trigger the relevant side quests every time he takes the train, but there is a probability.
The tasks that are refreshed with a probability in the game may be disgusting, but they are of great help in the real world. Lu Yan will not be like a jinx every time. I hope that when he enters the Alchemy City, the related side quests will not be triggered.
After getting off the high-speed train, he looked up at the sky with his hood on. A text message came on his phone. He picked it up and suddenly clenched the phone tightly:
"Looks like I'm going to encounter another side quest. I hope it's just a daily face-slapping quest or something, nothing too troublesome."
[I'm going to the Pill Market today. Do I need to buy some Pill Cards for you?]
The screen showed a message from Li Xisheng. It seemed that the eldest lady was also coming here for a mission. There were many cities in Mailong Country, and it was unexpected that they would run into each other with such a small probability.
After calming down, he replied: [I'm in Danji City right now. When can we meet? I miss you.]
There was no reply from the other end for a long time. Li Xisheng seemed surprised at the fate between them. It was nearly ten seconds later that his girlfriend replied.
[I went to Danji City to do a mission with my classmates. They heard about you and wanted to meet you in the future. Do you want to meet you?]
[Of course, no problem. How many hours until it arrives?]
【One hour.】
Without asking Li Xisheng on the phone about the personalities of her classmates, Lu Yan stood at the exit, quietly waiting for her and her classmates to arrive, playing with his mobile phone boredly.
Without even looking closely at the screen, he was slaughtering people in competitive games, relying solely on his touch to dispatch his enemies.
After two or three high-intensity games, Lu Yan felt that he should play more multiplayer competitive games. Facing deceptive teammates could effectively improve his willpower and endurance.
As the first-class cabin of the high-speed train arrived at the station and opened, several young and energetic boys and girls appeared in Lu Yan's sight. When their eyes met, Li Xisheng, who had changed his hair to shoulder length, wearing long sleeves and sweatpants, walked towards him and reached out to hug him.
"Long time no see, Lu Yan."
"Yeah, long time no see, Xisheng. How's school going? Why did you change your hair to short?"
Lu Yan hugged Li Xisheng and smelled the fragrance. It was a pity that his fingertips touched her short hair. He was a die-hard long-hair fan, although his girlfriend with short hair was also very beautiful.
"There were some dangerous missions where my hair got caught and I almost died, so I cut my hair short."
After briefly explaining the reason, the two of them, who had no private space, did not get too intimate. Lu Yan turned his attention to the five classmates who came with her. Under their curious gazes, he reached out and took off his baseball cap, revealing his handsome face.
Releasing Li Xisheng's waist and grabbing her hand, Lu Yan extended his other hand to the crowd: "Hello everyone, I am Lu Yan. Please guide me in the next few days."
The two men and three women had different expressions. He keenly sensed the hostility of one of them towards him. He tried to put his arm around his girlfriend's waist again, but the hostility did not change.
"Damn it, are you trying to kill me again?"
275
Chapter 275 is about the Tao family of the Kang family.
Hostility and murderous intent have many sources. Lu Yan hugged Xisheng tightly but his hostility did not increase, which means that his hostility was not caused by Li Xisheng.
It would be interesting if he simply harbored malice towards "Lü Yan". Lü Yan thought that he did not have many enemies, and all of them were bad.
There's something wrong with this classmate.
Without making any noise, they introduced themselves to each other. Lu Yan also learned the name of the man who was hostile to him, Tao Yi, whom he had never heard of.
The seven of them were from good families. After dinner at a luxurious hotel, Lu Yan took Li Xisheng and fled. After they had completely disappeared from everyone's sight and returned to the hotel, he asked about Tao Yi's background:
"Who is that Tao Yi? He has great hostility towards me, but his murderous intent has subsided."
"The Tao family in Kaifeng City should have no connection with you."
Li Xisheng frowned and took out his mobile phone to investigate Tao Yi's student information. At least the information provided by the school was correct. Lu Yan chose to call out Lamia and asked her, the intelligence specialist, to conduct an online search.
Feeling a little worried, he called out Daisy again and asked her to float near Tao Yi to observe, extending outward from the people he killed, and find out relevant information.
After four or five minutes, Lamia opened her eyes and touched her cheek with her fingertips, looking puzzled.
"He's a strange person. He has absolutely no connection with you, but in the past two months, his lifestyle has changed drastically. It's like he's completely transformed."
Possession? Time travel? Rebirth?
Having been in the world of card masters for so long, Lu Yan clearly knew that cards related to the three were possible to exist, and there were many records of them in history.
A two-star card master's temperament changed drastically. He immediately found the traitor in the family and launched a counterattack, successfully protecting the family. A long time later, he revealed the reason why he was able to know this.
Two hundred years later, when he became a Seven Star Card Master, he obtained a card that could be fully activated after his death, thereby rewinding time.
At that time, he encountered an invincible enemy and was successfully killed. After waking up, he returned to the present time when he regretted the most.
The card was powerful, but the price column was covered up. When he tried to start over with the idea of becoming a 7-star card master, he discovered the extremely terrifying price.
What is the price of turning back time? It is luck and talent.
After becoming a 5-star card master, he could no longer move up. After detailed examinations, it was finally confirmed that his soul had suffered inevitable and permanent damage that was difficult to recover.
Compared to the difficulty of rebirth, the price paid for possession and time travel is very little, or even nothing.
For example, for a time traveler like Lu Yan, the arrival of his soul is more like being captured in the connection of the universe when the card master's world captures information from other worlds, and then disappearing in the same time period as the soul, completing the integration of soul and body.
Jiang Jiu also told him that most of the people in the Card Master world, and even the ancestors of the Jiang family, might have come from other worlds, and they had traveled through in their physical bodies.
There must be a reason why he was captured, probably because of the special nature of his soul. After all, he has two mythical talents.
Possession is even simpler. A soul with possession skills can easily accomplish this task with a body without a soul. However, it will be difficult if the person whose body is possessed has a soul. The possessor must at least suppress the opponent at the soul level.
After taking over the body, one must gradually become in harmony with the physical body in order to gradually change the physical body itself from the soul level, making it possible to become similar to or even identical to the soul.
Sure enough, we still have to wait for Daisy to come back. She can see through the body and see directly into the soul. Lamia can completely infer Tao Yi's identity from the people he killed.
After four or five minutes, Daisy floated back from the window, closed her eyes and communicated the information she had obtained with Lu Yan who was communicating telepathically, and outlined the appearance of the deceased as seen by the [Eye of the Dead] in her mind.
Lu Yan handed the appearances of the deceased to Lamia and Li Xisheng. The mechanical girl checked online, and Li Xisheng was surprised when he saw one of the faces.
"Why could he kill himself?"
Li Xisheng's voice startled Lu Yan. He went back to look for the face and finally saw a face that was at least 90% similar to the current Tao Yi.
"His face is gradually changing in different directions. It looks like a soul invasion. As for Tao Yi, he's already dead. Xisheng, can you provide information about Tao Yi's recent activities?"
"Just the last mission record from three or four months ago will be enough."
Lamia, who was searching for the deceased's identity, interrupted, "The Card Master Academy's mission system has a strong artificial intelligence. It's not easy for me to break in directly."
Upon hearing this, Li Xisheng opened the team list. She was the captain of this team and could check the mission history of team members at any time. Captains used it to screen team members and ensure the strength of the team members.
"Three months ago, he participated in a mission [to suppress criminal card masters], targeting a man named 'Lin Zhuo'. He didn't take any action for the next month, and only then did he gradually recover."
"Lin Zhuo... doesn't seem to have anything to do with him, but I did find out something interesting."
Lamia raised her hand and projected a face onto the large screen in the room. A face suddenly appeared on the screen. Lu Yan frowned as he looked at the face, feeling that it was a little familiar.
"Does he look familiar to you?"
The mechanical maid turned back with a smile, "[Aquatic Ape] Kang Hui, do you still remember this person?"
"No wonder, it's related to Kang Hui."
Lu Yan recalled the guy who had put him in a "tough battle" and overlapped their appearances, and they did look a bit similar.
"His name is Kang Zhuang, a member of the Kang family. He participated in the mission to eliminate Lin Zhuo with Tao Yi. Unfortunately, he was seriously injured and died on the spot. He was one of the few casualties at the Card Master Academy."
"He and Kang Hui are brothers, but unfortunately his own brilliance was completely blocked by Kang Hui. His strength and talent were lost to the crowd along with his depressed mentality."
"He didn't have a good relationship with the rest of the family, but he admired his brother Kang Hui very much. It was only after his death that Kang Zhuang regained his strength. He probably wanted to seek revenge on you, but unfortunately, he was blocked halfway."
"Kang family, then the hostility you show towards me makes sense."
Lu Yan suddenly realized, and then another question came up -
Is Kangzhuang still Kangzhuang after changing his body?
Can he, as Tao Yi, break free from the contractual constraints extended from the blood relationship, and then launch an attack on Lu Yan and secretly carry out a conspiracy?
"Lamia."
"Master, I have checked."
The maid, as prophetic as ever, looked serious.
"The contract has loopholes. As Kang Zhuang, he can ask the Kang family for money. As Tao Yi, at least for now, he has not yet reconnected with the Kang family's bloodline, so he can directly attack you."
276
Chapter 276: Killing with a borrowed knife.
"Dad, I'm Kang Zhuang. I used [Dead Soul Stealing Body] to transfer to the body of a classmate of mine and met Lu Yan. Do you think I can do something..."
When Lu Yan was investigating him, Tao Yi (Kang Zhuang) finally took the opportunity to meet Lu Yan and confess his identity to him and Kang Hui's father.
If it were in the past, the Kang family would definitely just give Kang Zhuang some money so that he could move freely as a family member with a changed body. However, when he heard Lu Yan's name, the breathing on the other end of the phone suddenly became heavy and the phone was suddenly disconnected.
Putting down his phone, Kang Zhuang waited for it to light up again, recalling the past with his brother. He had been superior to others since he was a child because of his talent as a card master and cultivation talent, and other peers were completely inferior to him.
Because of this, Kang Zhuang, as his younger brother, is ignored by everyone because he is an "ordinary talent", and is often compared with Kang Hui by his relatives.
Every time his heart was hurt and about to be twisted, Kang Hui would always stand in front of the adults, patting his chest and saying that he would protect Kang Zhuang and that he just needed to eat, drink and have fun.
It’s the same in life, the older brother always protects the younger brother…
"How could you die like this?"
Kang Zhuang murmured as his phone rang again. He answered immediately. The elderly voice on the other end made Kang Zhuang straighten up: "Grandpa."
"Hey, Zhuang, thank you for your hard work. I will give you more living expenses. Oh, and to protect you, please write down the following phone numbers and websites. You can call a lot of bodyguards."
亙。
From the clan leader's instructions, Kang Zhuang, who was actually not stupid, had already guessed what his grandfather was planning.
Just as Lu Yan worried, as Tao Yi, he could take action directly if Lu Yan did not take the initiative to provoke a fight, and he would not be bound by the contract no matter what he did.
——Record it. Kang Zhuang nodded from time to time, completely unaware of the black shadow appearing outside the window. Looking at him making a phone call, a fierce light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he turned into a shadow and penetrated into the hotel.
Seeing that he didn't feel the energy fluctuation, the black shadow sneered, and the sharp dagger was about to fall, and Kang Zhuang was about to die.
Seeing that Kang Zhuang was about to die, the passive defense was activated at this time, blocking the dagger for about one second.
Kang Zhuang (Tao Yi) was so nervous that his pupils shrank slightly. He decisively turned off his phone and rolled forward. When he looked back at the black shadow, he had already taken a stance and took out a long stick as a weapon.
"Yin Fu, how did you know we were here!?"
The person who appeared in front of him was one of the team's targets. The criminal was named Yin Fu, who was suspected of murder, kidnapping, stealing business information... and other crimes. He was also a strong card master.
Yin Fu, with a rather chubby face, sneered: "Don't even think about it. You should die here today. After I kill you and the other man, I will have a good time with your teammates!"
"Wait, I can solve it with money—"
"Don't try to delay any longer,"
The dagger suddenly turned into a broadsword and clashed with a long stick. The criminal's eyes were filled with fierceness. "I've trapped the room with a barrier. No sound can get out!"
Kang Zhuang, who was unaware of the situation, started fighting with the target of the mission without even leaving room for discussion.
And for some reason, the criminal seemed to be very familiar with his fighting style and even knew what some of his cards were used for.
"Through facial comparison, we can confirm that the deceased are a number of card masters and five ordinary people. The focus is on those five ordinary people."
Lamia waved her hand and selected five faces, both male and female, with their official cause of death, the manner of death Daisy saw, and the town where they lived noted below.
All the dead people were in the Kang family's private base [Tianshui City]. The official causes of death were various accidents, but what Daisy saw were all massacres. It was obvious that they were killed by the Dandy family. The Dandy family concealed these things.
