Hu Die Lan

Chapter 630 Hide-and-Seek

Chapter 162 A Bunch of Old Troopers

"Alright, since you insist..." Ye Xiao Wu was silent. The tavern door opened, and people rushed in one after another. Gu Fei glanced at them and recognized the veterans who had ambushed them that morning.

Gu Fei smiled, took a deep breath to calm the excitement he felt, and slowly pulled the Dark Night Flowing Light Sword from his pocket.

The players in the tavern had already been staring in surprise when Gu Fei flipped the table. Now that so many people were barging in menacingly, they naturally understood what was about to happen. In a closed space like a tavern, watching the fun wasn't a good idea. Mages' spells, archers' arrows, and even warriors' Whirlwind Slashes and charges were too likely to accidentally injure others. So, most players realized something was wrong and quickly cleared out, while a few who couldn't resist excitement huddled in the corners, trying to give these people room to fight.

"Negotiation failed, negotiation failed, prepare to assault, prepare to assault!" This group of veterans had also formed a mercenary团, and were using the mercenary channel as a radio. Duanshui Jian was sending messages, and those outside immediately broke down the door, holding bows, swords, and staves. After entering, they formed a fan-shaped encirclement, aiming at Gu Fei.

The fan-shaped encirclement included the players huddled in the corners within their protection, while also leaving a safe and smooth passage for those who wanted to escape. Three people were organizing the players to evacuate quickly. These guys were treating this like a terrorist incident, evacuating the masses.

Gu Fei was speechless: "Is taking hostages useful?"

The crowd ignored him. Gu Fei suddenly attacked, thrusting his sword at Ye Xiao Wu, who was closest to him. Ye Xiao Wu's skills weren't enough to dodge Gu Fei's sword, but Duanshui Jian, who was always on guard beside him, immediately knocked Ye Xiao Wu and himself to the ground when he saw Gu Fei raise his hand. Normally, such a crude dodge would have meant being chased down and stomped to death by Gu Fei! But the situation was different now. The veterans' encirclement was basically complete, and when they saw Gu Fei attack, someone immediately shouted, "Fire!" These guys, regardless of their class, all carried a bow or crossbow, and immediately raised them to fire arrows.

Gu Fei had also been on guard. When he saw them raise their hands, he leaped up and swept across a table, using the table as a shield. The sounds of "clang, clang, clang, clang" rang out one after another, and the wooden table was instantly turned into a hedgehog. Gu Fei glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw that both entrances of the tavern had been professionally blocked. As for the back door... this was just a system shop in the game, and everything sold was automatically generated. Of course, there wouldn't be any delivery通道 or anything like that. There was no back door. These two entrances were just exits, and there was no third option.

While continuing to suppress Gu Fei with firepower, the veterans also sent a few close-combat experts to approach the table where Gu Fei was hiding. When they got close, two warriors gestured, and the firepower stopped abruptly. The two drew their swords, bent over, and nodded slightly at each other. Suddenly, they both charged directly at the wooden table.

The wooden table couldn't withstand the combined charge of two warriors and was instantly sent flying. The two were also stunned. They had clearly seen Gu Fei hiding behind the table, but he was nowhere to be seen. Before they could recover, they suddenly felt a wave of heat, and their companions behind them shouted, "Left!" The two quickly turned to the left, and Gu Fei had already launched a Shuang Yan Shan (Twin Flame Flash), a seven-hundred-and-twenty-degree double-stage kill. Although the veterans were more skilled than ordinary players, the situation of Jian Nan You and Zhan Wu Shang bullying them showed that their equipment was actually quite ordinary. Ordinary warriors might invest some points in Constitution, but they were more willing to add to Agility. In comparison, their health was slightly less than that of ordinary level 40 warriors. Facing Gu Fei's surging ultimate move, they died cleanly.

After solving the two, Gu Fei didn't give the others a chance to attack. He immediately darted and hid in the pile of tables next to him. The table legs were dense, and it would be hard to notice someone hiding in the middle if you didn't pay attention. But this time, Gu Fei did it in full view, and everyone naturally saw his position clearly. But before they could fire, Gu Fei pushed and kicked, instantly overturning several tables again. He crouched behind the tables, and no one could see his exact location.

"It's Instantaneous Movement..." Ye Xiao Wu realized at this time. When Gu Fei overturned the table just now, everyone thought he was hiding behind it, but who knew that he had used Instantaneous Movement behind the table to flash to a nearby table. Everyone's attention was on that table at the time, and no one noticed. When the two warriors leaned over and pushed the table over, Gu Fei, who was lying in ambush, suddenly burst out and killed them instantly.

"Alas... experience..." Ye Xiao Wu sighed. This was another misunderstanding caused by a lack of experience. Judging by common sense, Gu Fei was of course behind that table, but in the game, there was such a surreal thing as "Instantaneous Movement". The veterans were once again tricked by the game's settings, and the two comrades sacrificed themselves quite unjustly. Even Ye Xiao Wu hadn't guessed this situation when Gu Fei flashed to that table. Experience is the accumulation of experience. For scenes that haven't been experienced, relying solely on imagination to judge will naturally always miss something. People's imaginations are infinite. For example, Gu Fei using Instantaneous Movement to fly into the air and chop people in the morning was also something Ye Xiao Wu hadn't expected.

Apple Cider had indeed given these veterans a lot of experience in PK in the game during the day, as Ye Xiao Wu had requested. But the experiences he talked about were basically the tones of ordinary players fighting each other. Fighting with Gu Fei was a hundred and eight thousand miles away! When dealing with Gu Fei, the veterans might as well rely on their actual combat experience. As for being fooled by Instantaneous Movement, they could only eat a pit and grow wiser, and slowly grow in actual combat.

"Throw bombs!!" Duanshui Jian turned around and shouted to Lao Lei and Da Lei. The old soldiers' concepts were really deeply rooted. It was difficult for them to completely abandon their understanding to adapt to the game. Instead, it was better to rely on some things in the game that they were familiar with. For example, shooting arrows was called firing, and mages' map bombing was called throwing bombs.

Lao Lei and Da Lei stepped forward and threw their staves. Two Heavenly Fire Wheels exploded towards the area where Gu Fei was hiding.

"Use a landmine." Duanshui Jian suggested again. The Fire Tree Thousand Flame range spell was called a landmine by them. Ye Xiao Wu thought that the潜伏者's trap was more like a landmine, but the veterans unanimously believed that the trap was a proper trap and had nothing to do with landmines. The power of a range like the Fire Tree Thousand Flame could barely be called a landmine.

The two listened and immediately cast a Fire Tree Thousand Flame together. The area where the tables and chairs were scattered like a garbage dump was filled with rolling fire waves. Duanshui Jian said unhappily: "Can't you two cooperate and use a bomb and a landmine?"

The two nodded and said: "Wait a minute, reloading." This meant that the skills were on cooldown.

"Approach?" others asked. The veterans with rich combat experience had been repeatedly hit by actual combat in the game. When they found that the knowledge they had mastered could not be used in the game, they gradually began to hesitate. At this time, seeing that the enemy was lying in ambush there, and everyone was a large group, they couldn't make up their minds whether to approach for a while. Everyone had seen Gu Fei's attack just now. One roll could roll two circles of people. If everyone hugged together now, wouldn't they be directly wiped out by him?

Ye Xiao Wu was also surprised when he recalled Gu Fei's attack just now. At first, he thought that Gu Fei had used two Shuang Yan Shan (Twin Flame Flash) in a row, but after thinking about it, he realized that there was no interruption in the middle of that roll of flames. A Shuang Yan Shan (Twin Flame Flash) turned two circles and hadn't disappeared? How was this possible? Ye Xiao Wu didn't understand how much skill was involved in Gu Fei's turn, and naturally couldn't understand it even if he racked his brains.

"Expand the encirclement, flank the wings!" The veterans had now discussed a new battle plan. The encirclement didn't shrink but expanded. After enlarging the radius, two teams had already flanked to the left and right of Gu Fei's hiding place. As a result, they looked at the ground and immediately collapsed: "He's gone again!!!"

While they were active, Gu Fei's Instantaneous Movement cooldown ended, and he didn't know where he had flashed again.

"The distance of Instantaneous Movement is probably more than five meters!" Ye Xiao Wu quickly told everyone. Everyone's expressions froze, and they immediately expanded the radius of that area by five meters to search with their eyes, but they still didn't find Gu Fei's踪迹.

"He moved on foot after Instantaneous Movement." Duanshui Jian sighed and said, "But he's still in this tavern after all."

Unfortunately, the tavern was really unusually large. The tables everywhere were all possible hiding places. The veterans looked around with bright eyes, and their eyes were full of table legs and bench legs. After a while, their eyes were blurred. These people were not young anymore, and they really couldn't compare with young people in some aspects.

"The placement of these tables and chairs is too dense, it completely does not meet the requirements of fire safety." One old soldier complained.

"Eh? I heard that you went to do fire protection locally after you retired?" Someone next to him asked.

"Yes!"

"How is it? Have you ever made a meritorious service?"

"I made one, third class." This person smiled.

"Okay, you didn't embarrass our brothers." Another person patted him on the shoulder.

They were all chatting, but Gu Fei was still nowhere to be seen.

"Eliminate obstacles!" Duanshui Jian said, and asked Ye Xiao Wu next to him: "Is it okay?" The system's shop, the system-placed tables and chairs, Duanshui Jian didn't know if arbitrarily manipulating the system would have any opinions, but seeing that Gu Fei had overturned so many tables, the system didn't seem to have any reaction.

"If there is any damage, the system will demand compensation later." Ye Xiao Wu said.

"Is your money enough?" Duanshui Jian asked.

Ye Xiao Wu also felt guilty. This tavern was super big, and he knew how much the system would ask for money. If he really asked for compensation, would his money be enough to pay?

"Never mind, let's toss it first!" Ye Xiao Wu said. What would happen if there wasn't enough money? Ordinary people might not know, but Ye Xiao Wu knew the rules. Actually, nothing would happen. The system wants your money, but you don't give it? Then just swipe it directly from your pocket. If it's not enough after swiping, it will swipe as soon as there is any until it's enough. What can you do with the system?

Duanshui Jian nodded to everyone. While continuing to search for Gu Fei's location, these guys moved the tables and chairs in the searched area to the side. As the empty area increased, it would not be so easy for Gu Fei to continue playing hide-and-seek.

"What's the origin of these guys?" The players gathered in the corners whispered and discussed with each other.

"I've never seen them before, I don't recognize any of them." There were also people in the audience who claimed to be famous people in the city, but they didn't recognize any of these players.

"Just now I asked the mage to go up and throw spells. I seem to hear them shouting something about throwing bombs." Someone said.

"Haha, that's really interesting."

"Who are they chasing?"

"One Shuang Yan Shan (Twin Flame Flash) killed two warriors, who do you think it is?"

"Qian Li Zui?"

"Who else could it be besides him!"

"Ah ah, he's my idol!"

"Where is he hiding now, did you see him?"

"No, after an Instantaneous Movement just now, I don't know where he flashed to."

While discussing, these players were also looking for Gu Fei's figure in the pile of tables and chairs.

The veterans carefully searched while moving the tables and chairs. The entire tavern was gradually being cleared into a plaza. Some players who entered the tavern were startled and didn't know what had happened here. Not having a place to drink wasn't a big deal, at least it couldn't be compared with not having a place to level up, so no one had any emotions. Instead, they curiously stayed to watch what these people were going to do. So, more and more players were standing under the edge of the tavern wall, and the veterans' investigation was finally coming to an end. In such a small area, there was no need to move anything anymore. Just by looking, you could tell that there was no one inside.

Everyone was in a trance. They were also always vigilant during the investigation, lest they be violently attacked by Gu Fei, so Gu Fei couldn't have moved or changed positions during their investigation. Moreover, considering Gu Fei's Instantaneous Movement, which flashed out five or six meters at a time, they first cleared a blank area more than five meters wide at the beginning of the investigation. At this time, Gu Fei could either Instantaneously Move again and completely expose himself in this open space, or continue to flash in the uninvestigated area.

Gu Fei had not been exposed, and now all areas had been investigated, but there was no sign of him. Where did he go?

"Could it be that we were bombed to death just now?" Lao Lei and Da Lei said.

"Did anyone see a white light rise?" Duanshui Jian asked the people next to him. He didn't see it.

"No." Everyone shook their heads.

"At that time, the fire was all over the place, and if a white light rose, it would be covered up." Someone said.

"Only four spells, even if he was hit by all of them, he wouldn't die, right?" Duanshui Jian asked Ye Xiao Wu. Ye Xiao Wu was much more proficient than them in data calculation.

"He won't die." Ye Xiao Wu asserted. He knew the spell damage of Lao Lei and Da Lei, and he had been paying attention to Gu Fei for so long, so he was very clear about his equipment and attributes. The four spells of Lao Lei and Da Lei were completely insufficient to kill Gu Fei.

"Actually... do you two have PK points on you?" Ye Xiao Wu asked a simpler question.

The two also immediately realized and shook their heads: "No."

"He's not dead. Could it be that he used the Chasing Wind Emblem?" Duanshui Jian said.

"Apple Cider is over there. He didn't see him appear." Ye Xiao Wu had been on guard against this move!

"Damn it." Duanshui Jian was surprised. At this time, Sniper God came up and whispered a few words to the two of them. The two were stunned, and the other veterans searched the entire tavern and couldn't find Gu Fei. They were helpless, and Duanshui Jian suddenly sent a message in the channel: "Everyone, pay attention. The target is likely to be mixed in with the crowd!!"

Everyone was stunned. They didn't interfere with ordinary players. Everyone was free to come and go in the tavern, but seeing them handling affairs, no one was so ignorant to occupy a seat to drink. Either they left, or they stood by the wall to watch the excitement. At this time, a circle of people was standing under the wall, and this position was indeed what they had not paid attention to. If Gu Fei used Instantaneous Movement to walk into the crowd after hiding behind the table for the second time, it was still feasible.

Everyone was already sure of this speculation in their hearts, but they didn't show anything on the surface. On the contrary, they believed that Gu Fei had already left, and the people who were originally guarding the entrance had all gone out. It seemed that they were about to evacuate.

"Fake..." At this time, a player next to Gu Fei quietly said to him: "Pretend to leave, and then kill him when you appear."

"You can see this, it's not simple!" Gu Fei was indeed mixed in with the onlookers, and he was inevitably discovered by the people around him as soon as he appeared. But the main quality of the onlookers was that they didn't mind the excitement, and Gu Fei was alone at this time, and these people were a gang. Everyone didn't understand the grievances between them, and emotionally they were definitely inclined to the weaker Gu Fei. So Gu Fei hid in their midst, and those who knew it were secretly laughing, and no one shouted it out. Especially the one who was talking to Gu Fei at this time, he had talked to Gu Fei from the beginning, and the two had a good chat.

Hearing Gu Fei's praise, this person curled his lips in disdain and said, "There are only two exits. You haven't left and you're not dead. You don't need a brain to know you're definitely still here."

"Look, you're ignorant. Who said that if you haven't left and you're not dead, you must still be here." Gu Fei said.

"Then what else can you do?" This person asked.

"Look at this." Gu Fei showed him the Chasing Wind Emblem. "I now have a completed wanted mission on me. If I want to leave, I can teleport away with a pat."

"How did you get this thing?" This person's eyes widened.

"A hundred wanted missions, how long will that take to do?" After listening to Gu Fei's explanation, this person's eyes widened even more. In the general understanding, wanted missions are thankless. If you don't need to wash PK, who would be willing to do that thing! This guy hasn't had the honor of having PK points after playing this game for so long.

"Okay, I won't chat with you. They're about to leave." Gu Fei began to squeeze out of the crowd.

"What are you going to do?" The man was shocked.

"Accumulate PK points." Gu Fei said and was about to go out. Suddenly, a cluster of white light rose in the middle of the tavern, and everyone was extremely surprised. White light is most commonly seen when people disappear, and a cluster of white light rising in a place where there is no one is basically only visible when players in the offline area go online. After all, teleportation scrolls are not popular, and you can't see people teleporting everywhere.

Ye Xiao Wu and his party were also just feigning a retreat. Not counting the thieves who were quietly lurking in ambush, the others were always paying attention to the situation in the tavern when they left. At this time, when this cluster of white light rose, the several people who had not left immediately stopped and turned back to look over.
