A Delicious and Flammable Backlands Tour

"That's it."

"In this way, there are two possibilities. First, the main purpose of the opponent is me, and you are regarded as foreign aid. The opponent wants to test it first, and then get rid of you. And the second... is that you really have what he needs Something. In any case, you must be his first target."

"Wait." Xia Zhi thought of a new possibility. "Tell me, will this person be your opponent in the business war?"

"It's not impossible. If that's the case, he must send someone to attend this meeting, or even go in person."

Jiang Haifeng nodded. After all, all the reputable businessmen were invited by the mayor.

"You can carry out investigations at that time, the evil eye is still reliable."

Xia Zhi nodded and said, "Then what should you do?"

"I just released the news that the manpower and focus will be shifted to the construction of flood control facilities in the near future. I hope everyone will cooperate with the scene..."

This development is logical.If it wasn't for the summer solstice to determine the time of Anahita's storm, maybe Jiang Haifeng really wanted to do it.

But now, Jiang Haifeng can free up a considerable part of his staff to do other things.

When they arrived at the venue, Young Master Jiang went in first.Xia Zhi put on his hood, lowered the brim of his hat, and walked with the guards.

At the same time, Xieyan hid behind Xia Zhi's shield and probed everything around.

After a brief speech, the chubby mayor gave up the initiative to Jiang Haifeng.According to the plan, he is now talking about the latest arrangements and mobilizing everyone to put aside their disputes and get through this difficult time.

And at this moment, under the table that no one noticed, the red fluid reappeared.It turned into a tentacle and crawled towards the mayor in a meandering manner.

Regarding this abnormality, the guards of the mayor were like blind men, allowing them to pass by their feet.

"Definitely." Xia Zhi thought to himself.

Originally, he wanted to take a look at the reactions of these NPCs before going to rescue them.Now that I think about it, these guys are not ghosts.

But in the current situation, even if he was in the past, it would be embarrassing, and he might be blamed.

Is there a way to remove these tentacles quietly?

Of course there is, but the premise is that the summer solstice must be close there.Warriors are not thieves, let alone snipers, and they cannot kill long-range targets silently.

The target of the tentacle was basically determined to be the mayor. Although he didn't know what it was going to do, Xia Zhi didn't want the other party's goal to succeed.

He quietly retreated to the window and quietly pulled out Salsa's card.

"Go, create a small earthquake around this house."

Sasha, who was summoned downstairs, yawned and stomped slightly.

The building began to tremble visibly.

Everyone was shocked and planned to withdraw from here immediately.And those tentacles turned into blood-red fluid immediately blended into the red carpet on the ground and hid them.

For a moment, Xia Zhi noticed a malicious gaze looking at him.

"The meeting will be interrupted first, and I will arrange for everyone to go to other venues."

Jiang Haifeng said calmly.

"Please lead your own guards and exit in an orderly manner."

Xia Zhi followed the guards back to Jiang Haifeng.

"Have you gained anything?" Jiang Haifeng asked in a low voice.

Xia Zhi shook his head.

"Can't find the source. But there was something aimed at the mayor just now... so I asked the servant to make a small earthquake."

As a result, at least the mayor is safe for the time being.

"No, he's still dangerous. If you put it that way..."

Jiang Haifeng looked at the guards around the mayor.

These people seem to have no problems on the surface, and they can talk normally, but if you look closely, you will find that their movement rhythms are almost the same.

If the same pace is the result of well-trained, what about the exact same breathing and even heartbeat?

NO.856 The monster is squatting on Master Xia

Obviously, something is wrong with the mayor's guard. He himself doesn't have the player's observation methods, and he didn't even notice anything unusual.

"Then call him over and talk to him?" Xia Zhi frowned.

If the other party trusts him unconditionally and cooperates with him, of course he is sure to keep him.But who would entrust their wealth and life on strangers?Even Jiang Haifeng only got the entrustment from the mayor through his strength and wealth, but it was just a matter of business.

Therefore, Jiang Haifeng shook his head: "Don't tell him, let's take a long time to catch big fish."

This is to use the mayor as bait.

"Okay." Xia Zhi didn't have a better way, after the others left, he lifted up a corner of the red carpet on the ground.There is no trace below, and the red fluid is as if it has never appeared before.

"It's strange, there is no hole for it to escape here." Xia Zhi put down the carpet and followed the large group out.

Just five minutes after he left, the striped pattern on the carpet began to twist.

Soon, the strange blood-like fluid resurfaced again, it did not arouse anyone's vigilance, it flowed out from the ground and followed the direction of everyone.

"Ah, I accidentally slipped my hand."

Xia Zhi's figure appeared at the door.

He sneered and let go, letting the "Abyss Crusher" in his hand fall on the fluid.Although this odd-shaped hammer doesn't do much damage, it can cause water pressure in the abyss.According to the game, this hammer is a combination of physical and magical damage.

The fluid that was hit shrank violently into a sphere, and the high-pressure water flowing around it crushed it toward the center.

This kind of thing obviously didn't have the concept of suffocation, so it was only hurt by the water pressure of the abyss, but it was finished in this way.

Xia Zhi has scouted it, and the main body controlling it is not nearby, so it is undoubtedly impossible to supply energy to it.And once the black hand behind the scenes wants to save the mass of fluid that was attacked by him, he will definitely show up around, and he can lock him through the evil eye.

It's not worth the risk of exposure to save a minion that can be crafted.

Just as Xia Zhi guessed, the unsupported fluid completely lost its activity after being subjected to the pressure of the abyss for more than ten seconds, and evaporated in the sun.

"Master, this thing is dead."

Xieyan reported the analysis results.

"Its physiological structure is similar to slime, but it is different."

"Oh?"

"This thing is made of magic power and an unknown blood...a puppet creature. The magic power just now was erased by you, and the remaining blood evaporated directly."

"Huh?" Xia Zhi thought he had bumped into a summoner.

There is one thing to say, after the game was officially patched back then, allowing the summoner to take over the control of the summoned objects to a certain extent, the PVP is actually quite disgusting...

Of course, it's also limited to nausea.The current situation is the time for the Summoner to give full play to his advantages. He didn't show his face, but he was able to achieve his goal.

"It's a good thing I'm better at it."

Xia Zhi picked up the Abyss Crusher and hurried to the meeting place that Jiang Haifeng had mentioned before.

Neither of them expected today's attack, but there are always spare venues.

In other words, on the premise of knowing the location, anyone can go there in advance to arrange it-as long as he moves fast enough.

The sneak attack on the fluid just now allowed Xia Zhi to get some information, but the price was that only Jiang Haifeng was watching over there.He himself had to preside over the meeting and might not have the energy to deal with a surprise attack.

When the summer solstice arrived, the meeting had already resumed.

Two bloodless guards crossed their arms in front of the door, preventing Xia Zhi from entering.

"Damn..." Xia Zhi was a little annoyed.

He guessed that there was something wrong with the two guards, but he couldn't do it directly, otherwise not only would he be wronged, but he would also become the object of suspicion along with Jiang Haifeng.

Before it is fully developed, the city's resources still need to be fought for.

"Master, think about why the mass of fluid was exposed just now." Xieyan reminded him. "This shows that the amount of fluid that can be controlled is limited."

Otherwise, there is no need to break the disguise at all, it can be inserted there as an eye.

It is still meaningful to eliminate it during the summer solstice.

"I know, but I gotta make sure no one in there can—"

At this moment, the middle-aged man's painful screams came from the house!

When the matter developed to this point, there was no need to worry about the guards.There was an accident inside. As an enthusiastic and good citizen, it is only natural for Master Xia to want to go in and act bravely!

"Get out of the way!"

Master Xia punched hard at the same time, and both guards fell down.This was not because Xia Zhi's punches were too strong, but because they were as motionless as puppets and had no defense at all.

Breaking into the room, Xia Zhi found the mayor slumped in a chair in shock, and Jiang Haifeng pointed at the mayor with lightning flashing between his fingers.

There was still a puddle of red fluid struggling.Soon, Young Master Jiang had stored up the lightning beam of the Abyss Electric Shocker, and made another shot.

The fluid is completely inactive.But there is no sunlight in the house, and it remains on the ground.

It wasn't until a businessman drew the curtains that it evaporated.

"It's clear, gentlemen. Someone wants to hurt everyone here."

Jiang Haifeng shook his hand to let the lightning dissipate.

"Last time he even attempted to shake the entire building and smash us to death, but this time Mr. Mayor became his target."

No, shaking the building was done by your buddy.Xia Zhi rolled his eyes, and stood by the mayor's side to guard.

"This monster seems to have a natural fear of sunlight." The businessman who opened the curtain aside said in shock. "As soon as the sun hits it, it evaporates."

Young Master Jiang narrowed his eyes and motioned for the other party to continue talking.

"Me, should we set up the venue outdoors?"

"...Mayor, what do you think?" Jiang Haifeng looked at the mayor.

The mayor rubbed his injured ankle and nodded slowly.

"Although this may reveal some secrets, I don't care too much. Can I leave this matter to you, Mr. Jiang?"

"Thanks for your trust."

Jiang Haifeng nodded.

He vaguely sensed a strange feeling, but he couldn't remember what it was for a while, so he could only accept the commission according to the situation.

Xia Zhi looked around.Like last time, this bright red fluid was still camouflaged on the red carpet, which is no wonder, the construction of the spare venue is almost the same as that of the main venue.

"Ok?"

Xia Zhi still noticed something strange.

Through the vision of Xieyan, he easily saw that there was actually a small passage under the red carpet.It's impossible to pass through people, but it couldn't be easier to let the fluid gushing out from here.

And this pipe leads to a guest room.

"...the mayor has a problem." Xia Zhi looked at the mayor.

At this time, the mayor also saw the summer solstice.

"Ah, this is the Junjie you invited."

Like a normal elder, he pointed at Xia Zhi and smiled at Jiang Haifeng.

"He was also the first one to rush in to rescue us just now. This young man has a lot to do in the future."

"You are absurdly praising..."

Jiang Haifeng finally realized something was wrong.

The focus of sight in the room has inadvertently shifted to Xia Zhi.It was as if——was waiting for him to come in.

NO.857 In case of indecision, change the number and call on behalf

The atmosphere in the venue became serious, and Xia Zhi even felt that it was not surprising that the other party would tear up his face and show his original shape in the next second.

However, the president quickly looked away and went up to deliver a speech, and the meeting came to an end.That fluid never appeared again until Jiang Haifeng and Xia Zhi got on the return carriage together.

As soon as he got in the car, Xia Zhi said to Jiang Haifeng.

"That guy has a problem. I originally thought he was a little stupid, and didn't know that something was wrong with his subordinates, so he was indifferent to that thing on the ground before."
