Chapter 396: How to own five buildings

Waiting for the others to leave, Tang Er turned his head to look at the cemetery in the night, he turned his head to Bai Liu and his face became heavy: "Are you really sure that the body of that big developer in Area E was buried in one of this cemetery building?"

"If my guess is correct, it should be so." Bai Liu nodded calmly, "According to my theory, these developers should have died a long time ago and attached their partially alienated bodies to the land with the help of the land contract, since that's the case, the most probable scenario I guess should be that their real bodies should have been put together with the contract and buried somewhere."

"Between the fact that most of the whole of E is overdeveloped except for the cemetery, I'm leaning toward the idea that the bodies of these five major developers were buried in the beginning amongst the cemetery buildings on the land they own."

Tang Er frowned, "But there are too many cemeteries here, and you're carrying a blood-sucking buff, the medicine Liu Jiayi gave you won't last long enough for you and I to sweep all the buildings step by step, we'll need to sweep the area faster and more accurately."

Bai Liu looked around and asked softly, "Team Tang, if you say there are rotten buildings on the ground, will there be rotten cemeteries under the ground as well?"

Tang Er hit by this abrupt question was baffled: "Why are there rotten cemetery buildings under the ground ......"

He paused in mid-sentence, and looked sharply at Bai Liu: "You mean?!"

"Yes." Bai Liu looked towards Tang Er hit and explained without a hitch, "Have you forgotten what that npc said to me? Developers will hover around rotten buildings."

"According to the information we got at the very beginning, the dead homeowner will turn into a ghost and return to his room, attacking everyone who tries to enter his house, so following the logic of the setup down the line, it's only logical that the dead developer will naturally also go into the cemetery with his own corpse, attacking everyone who tries to enter his sphere."

"The homeowner's prowl is the whole house, and it stands to reason that the developer's prowl would be a particular building or area, and that the closer it gets to the area where its body is located, the more protective and aggressive it becomes, and it develops to the point where it makes it impossible for workers behind it to do any further work on the cemetery in which it resides, resulting in the rotting away of the cemetery building in which its body is housed. "

Bai Liu looked up and held up two fingers, "So having progressed this far, there are only two types of cemeteries that this developer will most likely exist in."

"The first, a separate cemetery."

"The second is the rotten building that was constructed around the cemetery house where it is located."

Bai Liu smiled slightly, "Captain Tang, narrowing it down to this point, as the main attacker, now are you sure you can screen and shoot the other side before I die?"

Tang Er let out a breath and drew the gun pinned to his back with a stern look, "It's incumbent."

Area C, under the new building.

After Yuan Guang had saved the residents of the upper floors one by one and forcibly sent them home, he and Shi Qian, who had not slept all night, were so exhausted that they were just about to find a place to lie down on the ground where the new building was under construction and sleep for a few hours to recover their energy, when they heard strange footsteps coming from the new building behind them.

It was a "boing-boing" sound of footsteps as countless tentacles moved across the ground, suckers pulling out and attaching as they walked.

Yuan Guang, who was dozing on the stand, slowly turned his head back and came face to face with C Dong, who was laughing with his mouth wide open and saliva dripping down.

"Found you guys." The C Dong, whose head had been deformed to the point of being unrecognizable as a human, stuck out his sharp, long, wriggling tentacle-laden tongue and licked his mouth, hissing, "Delicious tenants."

Yuan Guang took a deep breath, pulled Shi Qian, who was still sleeping soundly next to him, and turned around to run: "What's the point of sleeping! The monsters are coming to our door! Run!"

Shi Qian was staggered by Yuan Guang's tugging, saliva flew out of the side of his mouth, he looked back sleepily and was instantly shocked, backhandedly lifting Yuan Guang up and running forward frantically on both feet, "Shit! Why didn't you say so earlier!"

C Dong came after him with tentacles surging wildly behind him, his blood-stained half-face split open, his tongue lolling out, the tentacles on it elongated and stroked into a sharp, mosquito blood-sucking mouthpiece, and he laughed hideously, "Come over and buy my house!"

"Don't you want a home of your own?"

Shi Qian ran so fast that she could barely see the shadows of her feet, she was huffing and puffing and gasping for breath while shouting to Yuan Guang, "Yuan Guang, should we use our skills to fight back against this monster? If this monster eats another big skill from us, we won't have any cards against the Wandering Circus and the others!"

Yuan Guang's feet were almost off the ground as he was pulled by Shi Qian, and his expression was grave, "And that skill of mine is too dangerous, never use it easily until the last moment! My summon will attack everyone on the field except me, including you!"

"You shouldn't have gotten into the game with me!"

Shi Qian did not reply, she just looked back while pulling Yuan Guang inside a small alleyway, she and Yuan Guang pressed against the wall and gasped for breath, their gazes staring blankly, the atmosphere stagnant.

"You shouldn't have entered the game with me." Yuan Guang repeated again as if talking to himself, "I've been competing alone just because I used my skills the first time I competed and then ......"

"After your summon killed your opponent, it turned around and killed all of the team members except you." Shi Qian lowered her head and added the second half of what Yuan Guang had said, "After that, you never went to a group match again."

Yuan Guang went silent.

Shi Qian raised her hand and gave Yuan Guang a hard smack on the head, "But how can you call a one-man tournament a tournament!"

"Instead of making everyone sad to see you stand alone on the field, as your team members we would rather risk being killed by you and stand with you on the field."

Shi Qian looks up, eyes a little red, "Russell Cemetery, never a guild that sacrifices its teammates."

"Wasn't it you who kept telling us that even if we die, we must die in the hope of living no? Do we want to watch you die in despair standing alone on the field, in the midst of all those summons with abominable faces?"

Shi Qian clenches her fists, "I can't do it."

Yuan Guang didn't say anything, his fingers hanging at his side curling gently.

The sound of C Dong's footsteps approached them again, Shi Qian could not hold back his foul language, tugged Yuan Guang's wrist and jumped out from the other side of the alleyway, cursing angrily, "Isn't this C Dong only able to move within the confines of his own development floor? Is this neighborhood all developed by him? The range of activities is too wide!"

"Cemeteries are not." Yuan Guang remembers the information he saw at the trading center and quickly says to Shi Qian, "The cemeteries in each district are the initial amenities, not developed by the agent developer behind them, so you can go there!"

Shi Qian gave an OK sign and began to jog in the direction of the cemetery.

As a result, just after drilling out from the alleyway, Shi Qian bumped into a solid chest in front of her, and C Dong's arrogant and evil laughter came from behind her, and this person in front of Shi Qian held her shoulders with a steady demeanor, and then lifted his hand to draw his gun from his back waist, and aimed it dryly at C Dong who was behind them.

"Bang bang--!" After two gunshots, C Dong let out a roar of unwillingness and anger, then this roar became weak and trembling, and with it came the sound of something heavy falling to the ground.

Shi Qian subconsciously turned her head, she saw the body of C Dong who fell on the ground, then her pupils shrunk.

Two shots can dry out this level of big monsters, this person can only be ......

Even though Shi Qian's face was now tightly camouflaged, the threat of impending death still made her shiver, and the person standing in front of her who had just helped her with the monster even asked her, "Are you a resident of District C? Are you alright?"

--If he was seen through, this guy could kill her and Yuan Guang with a single shot, and wouldn't even leave time to escape.

Shi Qian struggled to compose her expression and took two deep breaths to turn her head.

Tang Er hit body leaned forward and held her arm with a furrowed brow, asking politely about her, "Is this ghost the developer in the crappy building in your district?"

"Yes, ahem, yes." The fear brought about by this crushing disparity in combat power caused Shi Qian to choke and cough twice the moment she opened her mouth without being able to hold back, her face scrunching up into a small ball of misery, "We've just bought a house in a new development, and no, I don't know why we're being chased all of a sudden."

Yuan Guang is still in the stagnant stage, he looked straight at Bai Liu standing next to Tang Er hit, was poked by Shi Qian with his elbow before he came back to his senses, and in a trance, agreed: "Yes, yes, just bought a house, and it's a mess."

Bai Liu's eyes swept back and forth between the two men and smiled as she asked, "Are you a couple?"

Shi Qian squeezed out a fake smile and pulled Yuan Guang to his side to stand close to him, "Yes, yes, just got married and took out a loan to buy a house."

"Oh, is that so?" Bai Liu gently took out a document that was wrapped in a document bag and bloody, "It's like this, we just found a rotten building in the cemetery building in Area E. Then coincidentally, we found the remains of the biggest developer in Area E in this rotten building, and then after beating to death, or eliminating the ghost of the big developer in Area E, we pulled out from its body pulled out this land certificate."

The corner of Bai Liu's mouth hooked into a light smile, "Now that the land in Area E has returned to normal management, have you considered buying a house in Area E?"

[System Alert: Player Bai Liu has obtained the land certificate of Zone E and stripped it inside the corpse of the developer of Zone E, activating the TRUE END branch line - find and destroy all the land certificates of the five districts of Sunshine City.]

[Progress to completion (1/5)]

Bai Liu shook the certificate in his hand with a smile, and looked directly at Yuan Guang with a shallow gaze : "Has the newly married President Russell considered giving up the lousy house he just bought to buy a house in Area E?"

Yuan Guang looked at the land certificate and his pupils shrunk to a tiny dot: "How did you ......"

Before Yuan Guang's words left his mouth, Bai Liu moved to his side with a speed that could not be seen by the naked eye.

Bai Liu held the handle of the whip and struck the abdomen of Yuan Guang who had not yet regained his senses, while lowering his eyes and pressing against Yuan Guang's ear, he laughed softly and opened his mouth:

"Yuan Guang, next time you don't want to be recognized, you'd better control how you stare at the enemy."

"The killing intent is too heavy."

In the next second, Yuan Guang, with a stunned look on his face, was knocked far out by Bai Liu, smashing into the wall and sending it cracking in all directions as he tumbled off the wall and onto his knees, covering his abdomen and vomiting blood in large gulps.

Bai Liu carried the whip without stopping at all and then attacked, he raised the whip again with an indifferent expression and threw it down again on Yuan Guang, who was trying to stand up with his head broken and bloodied, staggering.

Shi Qian's pupils crinkled, "Yuan Guang!!!"

Yuan Guang looked up in a trance, a snow-white whip with sharp bone spikes on both sides of the expenditure was smashing down on his face.
