C30 He Was Surrounded
Even though it wasn't his own prop, Koo Hsingci still couldn't bear to use it. He planned to find the next picture and observe it carefully.
Based on the current situation, as long as he found the photo, the NPC who wanted to kill him would definitely appear. So when he found the next photo, he had to be prepared in advance.
Koo Hsingci only hoped to find the photo and not meet the NPC for the rest of the time. Otherwise, it would be too troublesome!
Just as he thought of this, he heard footsteps.
On the other side, Si Zhu was not really relaxed.
Actually, there was something he had never told Koo Hsingci. Other than the soup noodles, there was also a countdown on the screen. The countdown started from 120 minutes, and it had already been 20 minutes.
Si Zhu did not want to give Koo Hsingci any pressure. He knew the nature of this system. Since Koo Hsingci's side was in danger, even if the time was over, it should not be a threat to Koo Hsingci.
Si Zhu wasn't afraid of danger. Even if it was necessary to punish him, he could still bear it. But if this matter was told to Koo Hsingci, Koo Hsingci would certainly be anxious. It was not that Si Zhu did not believe him, but he simply hoped that he would be able to focus.
Right now, Koo Hsingci was really focused on chasing after the NPC.
His luck was so bad. He had already found the photo through the pattern and was chased by the NPC. Who knew that the NPC would come immediately after he prayed in his head.
The reason he chased after the NPC was because the NPC was not the NPC he had met before, but a bloody person.
This bloody person could be considered his old acquaintance, Qin Lang.
When Koo Hsingci saw him, he had a bad feeling that this fellow had come. That meant that Miss Ning should not be far away. Last time, Miss Ning did not appear because she was scared back by Si Zhu before she could appear. But this time, Si Zhu wasn't here.
Koo Hsingci also knew that there was more than one NPC in the stone forest, so hiding was not a solution. It was better to take the initiative to attack. As the saying went, attacking was the best defense.
Koo Hsingci chased the bloody man with his spear for a full five minutes. When the bloody man walked towards a stone pillar, Koo Hsingci was about to continue chasing when he suddenly saw a bright red color in the corner of his eye.
Photo!
Koo Hsingci shot in the direction where the bloody man had escaped, then walked towards the direction of the photo.
He talked to Si Zhu as he walked. "I didn't find the NPC in the photo, but I found that there should be some kind of connection between the NPC and the photo. Look, I chased after the NPC and found the photo. "
Si Zhu said, "I heard the sound and you chased for five to six minutes. Under such circumstances, finding the photo might be a coincidence."
"Impossible," Koo Hsingci answered firmly. He said, "I am not that lucky."
Si Zhu was also convinced. "Alright, if you dare to chase after the NPC, it should not be a high-level NPC. Then find a few to fight. Try again and you will know whether it is real or fake."
"I think I should continue to look at the photos." Koo Hsingci listened around to make sure that there were no footsteps around. He first looked at the information on the photos. "The room card fell to the ground, but the door is closed."
Si Zhu hummed. "Is there more?"
"Not yet." Koo Hsingci touched the painting again. "I haven't found out what the picture was put on yet. It doesn't feel like it was drawn. It feels like it was cast with a projector. I still feel the texture of a stone when I touch it. But this projector must be more fluent than what I usually see. It's too clear! "
Si Zhu did not sigh with regret." That's a pity. My detector can't be of use anymore. Hey, why don't you look for a camera projector or something? "
"Great God, are you kidding me?" Koo Hsingci rolled his eyes. "It's already so advanced, and you still have a real projector in front of you?"
He wanted to take a closer look, but he heard footsteps coming from not far away.
"Someone is coming." Koo Hsingci lowered his voice. "When Qin Lang came, he was almost silent. This should be the senior one."
"Be careful." Si Zhu told him to be careful and then stopped talking.
Koo Hsingci carefully looked in the direction of the footsteps. He raised his gun and stepped back in the opposite direction. When he was about to turn to a stone pillar, he heard a piercing scream from the corner.
Koo Hsingci subconsciously turned his head. A pair of white ghost claws rushed towards his neck.
"F * ck!" Koo Hsingci quickly ran in the other direction. The footsteps were drowned by the female ghost's scream. He did not know where the high-level NPC was.
Koo Hsingci could only rely on his memory to run in another direction. When he was running, he heard familiar footsteps close by.
Koo Hsingci held his breath. The hand holding the gun could not help but tremble.
He could almost feel the killing intent coming from behind him. The footsteps stopped, but some rough breathing came into his ears, accompanied by a few contemptuous snorts.
Koo Hsingci swallowed a mouthful of saliva and did not give himself too much time to react. He turned around, raised the gun, and pulled the trigger.
Seeing that the bullet was about to burst out of the barrel and pass through the chest of the NPC, who knew that his back was suddenly kicked. Koo Hsingci could not control himself and leaned forward. The muzzle of the gun was also pointed at the sky.
With a bang, the bullet went out, but it hit the top of a stone pillar in front of him and a few pieces of gravel fell down.
Koo Hsingci fell face down onto the ground. The gravel hit his head. Fortunately, it was only some small gravel and did not cause too much damage.
But when he looked up, a pair of black military boots was right in front of him.
Koo Hsingci paused for a moment and quickly got up with both hands and feet.
Looking up again, the NPC held a knife in his hand. Before he could escape, the other hand grabbed his collar and pulled him up.
His hand strength was very strong, and Koo Hsingci could not break free at all. He wanted to secretly load the gun, but the NPC did not give him the chance. The knife slashed at his arm, and it hurt so much that he let go of his hand.
What the heck! Koo Hsingci cursed in his heart. Why did he not give it a quick death?
The female ghost and the bloody man stood together behind him. Their eerie laughter was so loud that it almost broke his eardrums.
"No..." Koo Hsingci still wanted to struggle, "Miss Ning, right? I already helped you release your Qin Lang, why are you still making things difficult for me?"
The NPC holding him sneered, "Low-level NPCs do things according to the system settings. Do you think she can understand what you say?"
Koo Hsingci was stunned. "That's not right. A 3-star dungeon NPC or a low-level one? And she also understood what I said before! "
The NPC sneered again. "You really think she understood what you said? Childish!"
