Chapter 123 Night Devil... Les!

Hearing Les' words, the others became anxious and spoke one after another.

"Li You/Boss/Brother Li You..."

However, Li You raised his hand to stop them and said, "No need to say more, since Les specifically asked to meet me, I will go."

The people trapped inside were obviously the gunsmith Rupert and his children.

The bunker was completely closed, with only this one entrance. Even if they wanted to sneak in and assassinate, they did not have the conditions.

So even Li You had no other choice but to go through the main entrance.

As for the option of ignoring these people, Li You had never thought about it at all.

I have brought the system to Harlan, so how can I let you Les kill innocent people in front of me?

Don't even think about it!

This time, none of these good people in Harlan can be left behind!

Of course, Li You would not rush in at the first sign of anger. He asked the others to wait for a while, and then took Yuzu to the outside. When he came back, he was the only one left.

With Yuzu as a backup, at least the worst situation would not happen.

Before everyone had time to ask him where Yuzu had gone, Li You waved to Racine, motioning him to hand him the riot shield.

This was a simple riot shield found in the City Hall building. It was not bulletproof, but a high-strength plastic shield used to maintain order.

Li You held the shield in his left hand, a shotgun in his right hand, and a machete on his waist. Then he asked everyone else to wait at the entrance of the corridor, walked over, and pushed open the door of the bunker.

There were no oncoming bullets as expected, which saved Li You an opportunity to use the eggplant card in his hand.

Inside the door was a narrow passage, with no lights on, and it was pitch black at the moment.

However, Li You had the help of the Night Hunter goggles, so he could see that there was a blue waterproof cloth on the wall at the end of the passage, and there was a passage behind the left and right corners.

Li You still had an impression of the structure of the bunker, and knew that the passages on this side were all rooms for people to live in. Going to the right corner to the end was the hall for storing supplies.

Les should be there.

He was about to leave when the radio rang again. Li You picked it up and it was indeed Les.

"Li You, this time you finally listened to me and came in alone."

"Come on, come to the storage room at the end to find me. My gifts and I are waiting for you here."

Even though the distance was so close, Les' voice on the radio was still hoarse and leaky, which made people feel very uncomfortable.

Li You came to the door of the storage room on the way. Except for a strange screen hanging above the door, everything else was exactly the same as in the game. Li You tried it and found that the door was still locked.

In the game, players need to go through the vents next to them to enter the storage room, but when Li You subconsciously looked at the wall on the left, the screen hanging on the door suddenly lit up.

A figure with a wide hood appeared on the screen. He sat on a gorgeous high-backed chair and covered himself tightly with a hood and cloak.

But when he spoke, it was still Les' hoarse and unpleasant voice.

"Welcome, Li You! Come to my treasure house."

"I'm glad that we finally meet."

"As a reward for your bravery, I will allow you to watch this gift-opening show!"

"By the way, all the entrances and exits here have been blocked by me, and your weird infected subordinates can't get in. You don't have to think about finding vents or anything like that, don't be like a rat and annoy me."

Li You looked at the screen and said, "Les, you are getting worse and worse. You gave up your building and museum, and finally you only have to hide in such a doghouse and threaten me with the elderly and children?"

"Besides, you wrapped yourself so tightly that even those female believers exposed more than you. You call this a meeting?"

Les was not annoyed, and said, "Wait a minute, you will see my face as you wish, if I judge that you are qualified."

"Now, you are there, watching the live broadcast of this gift unboxing!"

As he said, the screen turned, revealing the scene in the middle of the storage room.

An old man with gray hair and five boys and girls in different clothes, all with their hands tied behind their backs and eyes covered, kneeling in the middle of the storage room.

Two Les soldiers each holding a machete and a rifle, standing on the left and right, like executioners on the execution ground.

In addition to them, there was a little girl lying on the ground beside them. She was not tied up, but she looked unconscious and in a very bad condition.

Li You's face changed slightly, and before he spoke, Les spoke again:

"Oh, if you want to ask about this little girl, her name is Orya."

"Poor child, her father died outside to find medicine for her, and her diabetes is getting worse. Now she is only a small step away from reuniting with her father.

"Look at her, how painful it is! I have the insulin she needs here, but a liar who claims to be a wizard is unwilling to work for me in exchange for the antidote.

"He can't protect her and other children, so he can only wait to die with them.

"He doesn't deserve to play the hero, this old guy is not qualified. But you have, Li You.

"You have accomplished a miracle that ordinary people can hardly imagine. Now, the only thing you lack is one thing.

"That is... suffering and torture."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Les Gang soldier on the left side of the storage room raised his knife and slashed at Rupert's neck!

The soldier on the right took a step slower, but also raised his gun. Seeing what he was looking at, it was the unconscious Olya!

"Don't even think about it——!"

At this moment, a cold air swept across the entire bunker instantly, and the two Rice Gang soldiers on the screen were instantly wrapped in a layer of ice!

Then Li You threw down his shield, pulled out his hand cannon, and shot the door lock from top to bottom.

The door lock was torn to pieces in an instant. Li You kicked it open, then dodged and pounced on the two soldiers in the middle!

The machete and the short gun were both swung out, beheading one of the two men and piercing the chest of the other.

Just as Li You pulled out the short gun, suddenly the iron door opposite the storage room was knocked open, and a black shadow wrapped in a cloak rushed towards Li You!

Li You originally thought that the person coming was Les, but the black shadow was so fast and powerful that it didn't look like a human being at all. Li You, who was unprepared, was thrown to the ground by it!

As it pressed on Li You and roared angrily, Li You could also clearly see the torn jaw that was covered by the figure's hood.

Night Stalker!

However, Li You was not something that an ordinary Night Demon could subdue now. He used both hands to hold the Night Demon's claws that were trying to tear off his coat, and restrained the Night Demon.

Then Li You retracted his leg and kicked Night Demon hard in the abdomen!

This heavy kick caused Night Demon to fall backwards, staggering a few steps and hitting the wall, unable to recover for a moment.

And Li You stood up like a carp, grabbed the short gun that had fallen aside, and rushed over to stab the night demon through!

However, just before the tip of his spear pierced the Night Demon's head, Li You suddenly heard a burst of laughter from it.

"…Hahaha."

The primitive gun stopped suddenly, and Li You froze on the spot.

Seeing Li You stop his movements, the Night Demon instantly revealed his ferocious nature and swung his claws with his backhand!

However, Li You retreated lightly to avoid it, and then waved his short gun to fend off its subsequent pursuits. After forcing it back, he stood still and stared at the night devil.

The night demon stopped moving and looked at Li You, its eyes shining brightly.

The two faced each other and fell into silence.

After a long while, Li You tentatively spoke.

"...Les?"

The night devil let out a weird chuckle, and then a familiar voice came from its mouth:

"Congratulations, you guessed it correctly."

As it spoke, it raised its paws and lifted its hood, revealing the pale skin and mutated body underneath.

At this moment, Les looked like a night devil, but he was still wearing his original black suit with red lapels, and the decorative gold ring was still on his neck, which looked a bit nondescript.

Even Li You couldn't help but take a breath of air at this moment.

"You turned yourself into a Night Stalker!?"

Les laughed maniacally, and the air flowed out from his cracked jaw, causing a whirring sound.

"Yes, this is my last choice! I no longer need to be afraid of darkness or zombies, I am their king, the king of the night!"

Li You couldn't help but ask: "Why? You actually know how to use that kind of medicine?"

The elixir that can transform people into wise night demons, from the game's DLC, Believer.

In the plot of the Believer DLC, this blue liquid "elixir" is a key prop throughout the main line. After seeing the smoke generated by it, which can protect people from attacks by infected people, Crane and the Rice Gang believed that it was the antidote to the Harlan virus, so they came to the suburbs.

But in the end, they discovered that this so-called miracle drug was nothing more than a high concentration of Harlan virus.

And all those who drink the elixir will transform into a kind of intelligent night demon - the perception night demon in extreme pain and trance.

However, the elixir does exist, but in Li You's impression, although Rice in the original game was crazy, he was not to the extent that he would actively turn himself into a night demon.

What's more, it's not surprising that the Rice gang could steal the elixir, but they shouldn't know the essence of the elixir.

With Rice's character, how could he use a medicine of unknown purpose or produced by the military on himself?

Opposite, Les... no, Night Demon Les's eyes flickered, and instead of answering Li You's question, he said: "You actually know the elixir. Fortunately, I am faster."

Li You didn't understand his brain circuit for a while, and it took him a while to react: "Do you think if you move slowly, I will steal your 'spiritual medicine' for my own use?"

And Les actually asked: "Isn't it? Look at me, this new attitude is just right for this world that is about to change beyond recognition!"

"I have been reborn. Next, I will kill you, kill all the people outside, then walk out of the high wall and spread chaos and death to every corner of the world!"

"At that time, I will be the king of the new world in the dark night!"

Li You didn't know how to answer for a moment, and finally just said: "You are really crazy."

The original Qadir Suleiman was indeed dead when he lost his brother and transformed into Rais. Rais was just the embodiment of the craziest side of Kadir.

But at least Les can still be regarded as a human being, although he is a complete madman.

But this time, Les, the bastard, was no longer a human being. He physically turned himself into a night demon, and his already twisted heart was swallowed up by the crazy nature of the night demon.

This can be judged from what he said. The original Rice would never think that becoming a Night Demon was a kind of evolution, and he would never worry that Li You would take away his opportunity to "evolve".

So Li You knew that the humanity in Daredevil Rice should have been completely lost, and all that was left was the crazy and twisted hatred for him, GRE, and the world. Since nothing can be asked from him anymore, Li You doesn't have to hold anything back.

He turned the hand holding the primitive gun slightly, and the barrel of the primitive gun automatically extended, extending to two meters in total.

Li You raised his gun and pointed it at Daredevil Rice:

"Now that you have completely become a monster, what I have to do is very simple."

He didn't summon Yuzu, nor did he use a hand cannon, just to fulfill Rice's twisted sense of ritual.

Night Demon Les was too lazy to say anything, and roared, coming like the wind!

But Li You moved very quickly, arriving first. He swiped the pistol in his hand and hit Les on his side. He slapped Les back with such force.

Les roared, retreated slightly to gain momentum, and then pounced again!

Its action this time is very familiar to Li You. It is the standard fighting action of the Night Demon in the game. If successful, it will pin the player down.

If you don't break away in time at this time, the Night Demon's bite will kill the player in one blow, and the blood-locking method of the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect will be useless.

But all the actions of Daredevil Les were clearly seen in Li You's eyes.

He didn't hide either. He saw the right moment and swung the spear in his hand, just in time to block Les's attack. The barrel of the gun caught Les's claws.

But Li You suddenly exerted force, flipped his spear, and smashed Les to the ground hard!

Daredevil Les was thrown to the ground so hard that he was so dizzy that he couldn't get up for a while.

And Li You's gun suddenly shortened, flipped over, and stabbed Les in the waist and abdomen!

Les was unable to dodge, and the shot penetrated his side and was nailed to the ground.

It suddenly let out a shrill roar!

Li You looked at Daredevil Les's flashing eyes, unable to find any trace of reason in them, and couldn't help but shake his head. He reached out and pulled out the machete, intending to finish off Les.

But Rice seemed to be aware of the crisis. The critical moment of life and death suddenly broke out. He first spat out a mouthful of acid at Li You at close range, forcing Li You to dodge sideways, and at the same time, he jerked away and forced his body away from the gun head. Pull it out!

Then, regardless of the huge laceration on his flank, Daredevil Rais struck at Li You with another claw.

Li You swung his knife to block the attack, and Night Demon Rice quickly retreated and came to the wall. Then he tore off the large wires extending from the distribution box on the wall with his backhand claw.

The storage room suddenly fell into darkness.

The roar of Night Demon Rice echoed in the room. It seemed to feel that Li You had fallen into darkness and was at its mercy, so it began to circle around Li You.

A moment later, it pounced from behind Li You again!

It's a pity that all its movements have been in Li You's eyes for a long time. Li You suddenly turned around and extended the gun in his hand again, pointing directly at Daredevil Rice. From a third-party perspective, Rice felt as if he was hitting the tip of a gun!

Les also realized something was wrong, roared crazily, abruptly interrupted his movements, and stopped in front of the tip of the gun.

Li You didn't want to waste any more time. He took a step forward and stabbed straight with his spear!

Night Demon Les chose to avoid this time and jumped back to distance himself. It also realized that Li You could see its movements clearly in the dark.

Rice's consciousness returned for a moment. He looked at Li You and asked, "Why... can you see me?"

Li You didn't bother to answer, but pointed his spear at Rice again. Les, on the other hand, became angry because he was ignored. After his eyes glanced to the side, he had a new idea.

Li You noticed the direction he was looking and paused in the same way.

The next moment, Les roared and pounced on Rupert, who was leading the children to the corner of the room!

"Bang--!!"

The roar of Hand Cannon X echoed throughout the bunker, and Daredevil Les's body flew out suddenly and hit the wall. Its left leg was completely broken off, and only part of the broken leg was spinning and landed not far from Li You.

Daredevil Les roared in pain, but this time he really couldn't get up.

Immediately afterwards, footsteps were heard in the passage outside, and then the door was opened. Crane, Jade and Racine rushed in, shouting:

"Li You! Are you okay!?"

Li You replied: "It's okay! Just stay at the door and don't move. Crane, look for the backup power switch and restore the power first."

The three of them responded, and there was a rustling sound in the darkness, and then the lights in the storage room came on again.

Then, the three of them saw that the storage room was in a mess.

There are many messy claw marks on the indoor walls and floor, and there are traces of acid corrosion on the ceiling. Two corpses of Rice Gang soldiers were lying on the ground, one on the left and one on the right. An old man was huddled in a corner protecting several children.

Not far away from them, Li You stepped on a night devil in a suit and pressed the short gun in his hand to its throat, restraining it.

"Li You!? This is...?"

The three of them couldn't help but scream in surprise.

Li You looked at the three of them and said, "Jed, take Rupert and the children out first. Racine, go look inside. There should be insulin here."

The siblings went as they were told, and Crane came to Li You's side. Looking at the Night Demon under his feet, he couldn't help but wonder: "Where's Les? Did he run away?"

Li You shook his head: "No, this night devil is Les."

"What did you say!?"×2

Jade and Clan looked at the night demon.

However, at this time, there was a loud noise in another room, followed by a man's roar.

"Go to hell!!"

"Racine!" Jed was shocked and rushed into the room without caring about anything else.

Fortunately, when she rushed in, she saw that Racine had subdued the unknown attacker and pressed him to the ground.

Jed was relieved.

On Li You's side, he and Clan tied up the night demon Les with ropes and left him to Clan for care, and then came here.

Racine was unharmed, while the middle-aged bearded man who was a little fat under him kept crying out in pain:

"It hurts! Let me go, it's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding!"

Li You recognized him immediately with the familiar tone and lines, as well as the face.

Kahn, a senior member of the Rice Gang, is a key figure in the DLC plot of The Disciple who led a part of the Rice Gang remnants to the suburbs after the death of Rice. He is also the person who guided Crane at the beginning.

To sum it up in one sentence, this guy is quite funny.

In the plot of The Disciple DLC, he pretended to be a foreign businessman, but actually plotted the "elixir" of the Son of the Sun Sect.

At the beginning, he also deceived Crane, making Crane think that he was just an ordinary person. As a result, in the final chapter of the plot, Crane found him in the lighthouse occupied by the Rice Gang.

Until then, Kahn still wanted to deceive Crane.

"I just live here, and I have nothing to do with those gangsters!"

Crane: Slowly loosened the hand that was pinching Kahn's neck.

Then the radio on Kahn's waist rang: "Boss, are you there?"

Kahn (awkward but polite smile): "Ahaha...hahaha."

Crane: (dish)

Well, that scene is almost the same as now.

Kahn was suppressed by Racine, and kept saying that he was just captured by the Rice Gang and had nothing to do with them.

Then Jed found a stack of letters on the table in his small room. All of them were action plans sent to various Les Gang strongholds. They were all signed by Kahn, and the ink of the latest one was not dry yet.

Kahn: "... I said this was just written by Les. Do you believe it?"

Others: "..."

Are you kidding me?

Li You walked to his side, and the original gun stabbed down his face. Kahn could even see the dark blood slowly sliding down the tip of the gun. He knew that this was the blood of Les who had mutated into a night demon, and the whole person trembled suddenly.

Li You said: "Kahn, don't pretend, I know you very well. Now I have a few questions to ask you, if you answer well..."

Kahn nodded quickly: "I'll tell you! I'll tell you everything!"

"Very good, then the first question, where did the drug that turned Les into a night demon come from?"

Kahn did not hesitate: "It was found in the old city research institute!"

Li You did not hesitate, and broke two of Kahn's fingers with one foot, causing him to bounce up suddenly in pain, and then was pressed down by Racine again.

Li You said, "Don't try to fool me. I have a way to judge whether what you said is true or false. Do you want to try again?"

Kahn didn't dare to lie this time, and said, "I understand, I understand! I don't dare!"

"I brought people to find the elixir from the suburbs. There is a local small sect there, which is said to have a way to make people immune to zombie attacks."

"Rice sent me there after hearing the rumor, and I finally found this elixir. We initially thought it was a life-saving elixir that could prevent people from being infected, so we brought it back."

Li You asked again, "If that's the case, why did Rice use it on himself?"

Kahn hesitated this time before answering, "This... It's a long story, and I don't know everything."

"In fact, before, when Rice's office in the slums was raided, he was shot and seriously injured. I was not there at the time, but I heard that he couldn't even get out of bed by himself and had to lie down to sleep.

"Until I came back, his injuries hadn't healed yet.

"But one night, Rice, who was originally unable to move, suddenly disappeared and could not be found anywhere. When he came back, he had recovered basic mobility.

"After that, he called me over, took away the blue elixir I brought back, and then..."

Hearing this, Li You had roughly understood what happened.

It turned out that when he first raided the Rice Gang office, the shot he fired really blew up a part of Rice, so Rice was seriously injured and fled directly to the old city with better medical conditions to heal his wounds.

I think it was because of this that when Li You went to the Rice Building later, he only saw Tahir alone.

But Now there is a new question, that is, how did the seriously injured Rice disappear from the base, and how did he recover mysteriously?

From Kahn's description, he seemed to have known the effect of the blue elixir and took the initiative to take it.

What caused his concept to change so drastically?

Li You carefully sorted out the chaotic clues in his mind, and then a guess emerged, which vaguely pointed to the figure who had been hovering around since he first came to Harlan.

However, this is just a guess at present. Li You put aside his curiosity for the time being and turned to Kahn:

"The last question, where is Dr. Camden?"
