Chapter 27: Hiding in the Wilderness
"The Zhou family."

After getting the information he wanted, Wang Ming gave the shield man a happy surprise, frowning and thinking for a while.

During the altar assessment four months ago, Wang Ming was attacked by a group of people and nearly died.Like the four people just now, that group has tracking masters, so they have been unable to escape.

How can Wang Ming be easy to bully, he was forced to be impatient, and directly led them into the nest of the gold-eating rats, and used the gold-eating rats to kill them all!
Among them, the leading young man looked like the son of a rich family, claiming to be the son of the Zhou family.

Horn City is too big, and there are too many families in the tens of thousands of years of history, so Wang Ming didn't bother to pay attention to it.

"It turned out to be that Zhou family."

Suddenly encountering an assassination today, Wang Ming knew that the Zhou family was actually one of the Lin and Zhou families, the Zhou family, known as the top wealthy family second only to the City Lord's Mansion!
The young man killed by Wang Ming was named Zhou Xian, the youngest son of Zhou Zhenbei, the head of the Zhou family.

"This is troublesome..."

The Zhou family's influence spreads throughout Horn City, and they have countless masters.Even Wang Ming, who stayed at home, heard about Zhou Zhenbei's domineering attitude.When he got into trouble with this enemy, Wang Ming couldn't help but feel a headache even if the system was around.

"There is no way."

But if the time goes back four months, Wang Ming will still kill Zhou Xian. He has no choice but to protect himself!

As for how Zhou Zhenbei knew that Wang Ming was the murderer, it was actually simple. During the assessment, Wang Ming produced more than 600 rat teeth, which was really eye-catching.

Even if a person hunts non-stop, there will be dozens of rat teeth at most in just two days.Hundreds, or even more than 600, it is not difficult to guess that they must have robbed other contestants.

Coincidentally, Zhou Xian was killed during the assessment, and the murderer was naturally Wang Ming.

Although there is no evidence, in this world where force is paramount, there is no need to talk about evidence at all.As long as it is identified as you, as long as the strength is higher than yours, I can kill you!
"Humph!"

Thinking of this, Wang Ming's face darkened and he snorted heavily.He has never been a person who is afraid of trouble. Although the Zhou family is powerful, it cannot scare him.

"go!"

After thinking for a while, Wang Ming turned around and went straight back to Horn City.

There are a total of four killers, and one accidentally escaped, and must have returned.Wang Ming didn't intend to enter the city, but to listen to the situation so that he could deal with it.

An hour later, four miles outside Horn City, Wang Ming was hiding in a bush, looking at Horn City in the distance.

In order to prevent monsters from hiding, there are no tall trees around the corner city, and it is an open space.At this time, the weather was calm and there was no killer lying in ambush.But the calmer the water surface, the more dangerous the undercurrent surging below.

The Zhou family couldn't give up so easily, so Wang Ming lurked and watched carefully.

"crow……"

Soon, Wang Ming suddenly discovered that within a few miles outside the city, there were suddenly many strange crow-like birds hovering around, as if they were looking for something.

"Identify!"

[Black Feather Dark Raven: An ordinary bird that can fly high, is good at searching, and can be domesticated. 】

"really."

Seeing the identification information, Wang Ming sneered.Since these crows were domesticated, who else could they be except the Zhou family.Since he is good at searching, who else can he search for besides Wang Ming.

However, the opponent's ability is limited, and the distance to control these crows is only a few miles, so they can only search around the city, but dare not go deep into the wilderness.

But even so, it can also play a role in monitoring and alarming.As long as Wang Ming appears around Horn City, a large number of killers will immediately rush out and intercept him on his way into the city.

"That's all."

It was just a few crows, Wang Ming turned on Level 3 Stealth, and ordinary monsters couldn't find him, let alone a few crows.

The horned city is controlled by the city lord's mansion and defended by the garrison army. Private fighting among human races is strictly prohibited in the city.As long as Wang Ming returns to Jiaojiao City, even the Zhou family will not dare to attack him directly.

"gone."

After observing for a while, Wang Ming did not sneak back to the Horn City, but turned around and plunged into the depths of the wilderness again.

It's easy to hide an open spear, but it's hard to defend against a hidden arrow. With the power of the Zhou family, even if they can't attack directly, they will try their best to assassinate Wang Ming.So compared to Horn City, for Wang Ming who owns the system, the wilderness is safer!

Of course, there is another most important reason, Wang Ming's purpose of going out of the city this time has not been achieved.Regardless of the Zhou family and the Lin family, Wang Ming collected herbs and hunted monsters as usual.

"It looks like that kid did it!"

At the same time, in the inner courtyard of the Zhou family, Zhou Zhenbei's face was cloudy after receiving the report.

It is obvious that he has experience in killing the tracking master right away.Coincidentally, among the people who followed Zhou Xian before, there was also a tracking master.

Zhou Zhenbei guessed that in the field four months ago, Zhou Xian must have wanted to snatch Wang Ming and chased him for a while.But I don't know what method Wang Ming used to kill them, and no one escaped!

"Master, don't worry, our people are closely monitoring the outside of the city."

The butler stood aside with his head bowed. He was also responsible for the failure of the mission. He was a little panicked, so he said hastily.

"As long as that kid appears, our people will know immediately, intercept and kill him outside the city, this time we will definitely not miss again!"

"it is good."

Zhou Zhenbei nodded, his eyes suddenly turned cold.

"I'll give you one more chance."

"Thank you sir."

The butler became more panicked, then frowned again, hesitated a little, and still said.

"But what I'm most worried about is what if the kid doesn't dare to come back and dies in the wild. We have fought frequently with the Lin family recently, and it's impossible for some masters to be dragged outside the city all the time."

"You know how long the luckiest people have stayed outside the city."

"As far as I know, no one has survived more than three months in the wild!"

"Then give him four months."

Zhou Zhenbei sneered at the corner of his mouth and hummed softly.

"If no one comes back after four months, it means that the kid has already fed the monsters, which is considered cheap for him."

"Yes."

The housekeeper took the order and went down to make arrangements.

……

"collection!"

While the Zhou family was closely monitoring the outside of the city, Wang Ming had already returned to the wilderness, gathering herbs and hunting monsters.

[Collected two drops of monster blood. 】

Following the system prompt, two drops of bright red blood fell into his hand.

"It's a level four monster."

Looking at the corpse of the monster under his feet, Wang Ming smiled lightly.

This monster is named Steel Tooth Boar, and according to the identification information, it has the strength similar to that of a human body.A pair of fangs were extremely sharp and powerful, Wang Ming also spent a lot of effort to kill it.

Compared to the second and third level monsters, they have more energy and blood. Even if they collected two drops of essence and blood, it was not in vain.

"gone."

There was a lot of movement in the battle just now, fearing that it would attract other monsters. After collecting the blood essence, Wang Ming started stealth and ran away immediately.

[You have explored an unknown area, get 1 exploration point! 】

As the distance from Horn City got farther and farther away, Wang Ming had reached an area that had not been explored before, and the system prompts kept ringing, and the exploration value also increased accordingly.
