Fantasy Game: Infinite City

Chapter 148 "Frank"

Time passed minute by minute, and the sun slowly rose to its highest point. At noon, the bright sun dispelled all the darkness, and heat waves gradually appeared under the cloudless sky.

Although there was wind blowing from time to time, it became very hot under the influence of the heat wave. Han Zu didn't feel anything at all. After all, throwing him into the magma was no different from taking a hot spring bath. As for Garcia, she was on the second floor of the barn, not on the roof.

"There's still nothing unusual in the cornfield. It looks like this group of people aren't coming towards us. How are you seeing from up there?"

"No one is approaching the car outside the farm. I wonder if there is something wrong with our thinking. After all, we didn't hear the sound of a car engine before. By the way, does your item only work when a player approaches? Or will it alarm as long as there is a hostile unit?"

"As long as there is a hostile unit, the alarm will be sounded, but hasn't the system already given the mission? So someone should have entered the farm by now."

"That's not necessarily true. Wait here while I go take a look in the cornfield."

Han Zu jumped down from the barn, waved to Garcia on the second floor behind him, and then walked into the cornfield with a gun. Garcia observed Han Zu's route.

"Frank" has entered the cornfield. If there are players who have really entered the farm, they will definitely try their best to avoid meeting "Frank", and they will definitely make their movements as small as possible, rather than walking around as swaggeringly as "Frank". By observing the movements of the cornstalks, they can find out whether there is really someone hiding inside.

"Crack!"

Han Zu heard a strange noise coming from one side of the cornfield. It was the sound of the corn stalks being bent. The wind was not strong enough to do this. Something must have passed through the cornfield and accidentally stepped on the corn stalks.

The sound was not made by Han Zu, because he deliberately slowed down his pace during the search to avoid confusing information. Han Zu moved in the direction where the sound came from, and sure enough, he saw a bent corn stalk.

The degree of the bend was not actually that great, it was just because the corn stalk was too brittle that it made the sound. Han Zu squatted down to check and did not find any human footprints or anything like that.

"I guess it's because the corn is too heavy, not man-made?"

Just as Han Zu was about to leave, he suddenly found a trace of blood on the corn leaf next to him. He looked closer and found some different-colored hair on it, which seemed to be left by some animal.

"animal?"

At this time, a breeze blew, and there was a rustling sound in the cornfield. Han Zu quickly turned around and found a figure fleeing from the cornfield. Han Zu quickly raised his rifle and fired at the figure. With an animal howl, the figure stopped and fell in the field.

"rustle..."

Han Zu put away his gun and moved carefully among the corn stalks until he came to the place where the creature fell. It was a small coyote, not big enough to leave obvious footprints in the field, but it was enough to bend a brittle corn stalk.

After checking the coyote's body, he found some scratches in addition to the bullet holes, and the color of its fur was exactly the same as what Han Zu had found before. Carrying the coyote's body, Han Zu returned to the path in the field and raised the coyote's body towards Garcia in the barn. After placing the animal's body on the road, Han Zu turned around and returned to the cornfield.

Garcia, who was on the second floor of the barn, continued to observe the movements in the cornfield. However, except for Han Zu's movements, everything else was normal. At this moment, some noises suddenly came from the cowshed behind the barn.

"Mou~~"

The originally quiet herd of cattle suddenly started to cry out. Garcia climbed up the ladder to the roof of the barn and blew a loud whistle in the direction of the cornfield. Han Zu poked his head out of the cornfield and looked over here.

Garcia made a few gestures to him, telling Han Zu that he had discovered something unusual, and then left the barn. After understanding the situation, Han Zu continued to search the cornfield.

Two hours later, Han Zu searched the entire cornfield and found no traces of the player, but he did find some wild animals, such as coyotes, more than five in number. However, there was indeed nothing unusual in the cornfield, so Han Zu left the cornfield and went to the cowshed. At the door of the cowshed, he saw Garcia, who was wearing farm clothes and breaking up hay with a fork.

"What's going on here?"

"There was a sudden noise in the cattle pen. I came over to check and found nothing unusual, so I fed them some food."

Han Zu noticed that the water in the trough looked new. The drinking fountain for feeding cattle was automatic and would fill the trough with water at regular intervals. Han Zu took a casual look and found some traces of dirt on the water switch of the automatic drinking fountain and on the nozzle of the water pipe.

"Garcia, did you get dirt on your hands before you changed your clothes just now?"

"No? What's wrong?"

"When you gave them water after you heard the noise in the cowshed, did you change the water?"

"Correct."

“Do you know anything about the farming industry?”

"We have contact, but we don't know each other well. What do you want to say?"

"This is an automatic drinking fountain. The time and amount of water that comes out are all set. Was there no water in the sink when you came?"

"Right... You mean someone turned off the water dispenser?! Doesn't that mean..."

"Click!"

Han Zu didn't say anything, he just pulled the bolt and walked towards the garage of the house. Before arriving at the garage, Han Zu looked around at the car parts in the garage and found that a few not-so-obvious things were missing.

"He's a good thief."

"No one of us noticed..."

Han Zu immediately turned around, asked Garcia to stay and wait, and left quickly with a jump. After a while, Han Zu jumped back carrying something and landed on the open space next to him.

"Clang."

"If you want to repair a car, you must first have a car to repair."

Looking at the vehicle that Han Zu had brought back and that was parked outside the farm, Garcia nodded.

"Your ideas are still as out of the ordinary as always, but maybe they are effective."

Under Garcia's watchful eyes, Han Zu began to quickly dismantle the parts of the vehicle. The garage had all the tools he needed. Soon, except for the shell and chassis, all the parts were dismantled by Han Zu. The damaged parts were crushed into scrap metal, and the usable parts were neatly placed on the floor of the garage. Han Zu pumped the gasoline inside into a gasoline barrel and handed it to Garcia.

"So we have to sit tight and wait now?"

"No," Han Zu walked towards the small house, sat on the steps at the door, and lit a cigarette, "We won't do anything now, let's take a rest."
