Ch 68: Zhang San?
The pitch-black shadows, in the blink of an eye, were like a hedgehog bristling, transforming into hundreds of them, and suddenly bursting out to attack.
Not only were there shadow spikes, but also dozens of tentacles, flexible as living things, writhing behind Qin Jin-nian in the blink of an eye.
Two figures, one high and one low, appeared behind Qin Jin-nian, two sharp blades of light, one aimed straight for the neck, the other slashing at the legs.
But the sudden eruption of shadows caused the eyes of the two figures exposed to the outside to reveal a look of shock. In the next moment, the shadow tentacles were about to wrap around these two figures, but they saw the two figures successively flicker and disappear again.
Qin Jin-nian’s expression became extremely difficult to look at…
It’s not just speed.
If it were just speed, with so many shadow spikes and tentacles, the other party wouldn’t have been able to escape so easily.
What is this?
Some kind of space jump?
“I didn’t expect such a strong person to appear among the Night Watch… What kind of superpower is this?”
A hoarse and unpleasant voice sounded from the side, and Qin Jin-nian turned his head to look.
On the abandoned building next door, that figure appeared again… this time only one appeared.
The gloomy gaze stared at Qin Jin-nian, actually treating Qin Jin-nian as a member of the Night Watch.
Qin Jin-nian’s eyes flickered, and then he said faintly: “What superpower do you use, that is the priest of the Church of the End?”
“You don’t recognize me?”
“I should know you?”
Qin Jin-nian’s question made this person pause for a moment, furrowing his brows, and finally snorting coldly, he said faintly: “This time, consider you Night Watch chess players to be a step ahead, but don’t be arrogant… Sooner or later, I’ll make you pay the price.”
After saying this, this person’s figure blurred, then disappeared on the spot, and was no longer seen.
Qin Jin-nian frowned, looked around, but could no longer see the person’s trace.
The dancing shadows slowly retracted beneath his feet, and Qin Jin-nian’s expression was also somewhat solemn…
This person was undoubtedly the most difficult one he had encountered during this time… The most crucial thing was that superpower, which was almost a space shift, and Qin Jin-nian had almost no way to deal with him.
But likewise, he didn’t have any particularly good way to deal with Qin Jin-nian… The other party was clearly taking the close-quarters assassin route, which happened to be completely countered by Qin Jin-nian.
As long as Qin Jin-nian was willing, he could turn into a hedgehog at any time. And it was a hedgehog with a turtle shell… It was difficult for a close-quarters assassin to kill him…
And besides the other party’s space-flashing method, he could actually split into clones?
Those two knives just now slashed on the shadow shield, and they all caused damage.
Sure enough, the abilities of espers were strange, and none of them could be underestimated…
Qin Jin-nian thought.
“I didn’t expect there to be any fish that escaped the net.”
But at this moment, a cold voice sounded.
Qin Jin-nian was stunned, looked up, and saw a figure appearing on the roof of this abandoned building.
It was a woman.
The woman was not wearing a black robe, but the Night Watch’s combat uniform, her figure was tall and slender, and the loose overalls couldn’t hide the lines of her long legs, and the overalls shirt on her upper body was almost torn apart by her high and soft chest, making people’s eyes unable to help but look up…
A head of wine-red long hair, a delicate and alluring face, but her temperament was completely cold.
It was as if she was emitting cold air.
And what made Qin Jin-nian even more surprised was…
This voice was very familiar.
After just a thought, he suddenly remembered…
◈◈◈
Isn’t this the voice of the female Night Watch member who answered his phone?
Eh?
Could it be that she wasn’t a switchboard operator, but a combat unit member?
Qin Jin-nian was thinking, and he saw the other party touching her ear and saying in a faint voice: “Received, there’s another fish that escaped the net here, I’ll come over immediately after I deal with it.”
After saying this, Qin Jin-nian felt as if the air around him had suddenly become cold.
He immediately realized that the other party was about to attack. He was just about to say that the other party had mistaken him, that he wasn’t a member of the Church of the End, but the other party had already attacked!
Whoosh!
The woman’s figure leaped, and immediately turned into a black shadow, heading straight for Qin Jin-nian, her speed was shockingly fast.
Qin Jin-nian’s expression changed slightly, and without thinking, the shadows under his feet burst out, turning into several shadow spears, attacking the opposite side.
Seeing the shadows turn into spears, the woman’s eyes flickered slightly, but her expression remained unchanged. As she rushed forward, a ball of blue light appeared in her palm, and in the next moment, she waved it forward, and the blue light immediately spilled out.
Qin Jin-nian only felt a bone-chilling coldness, spreading along the shadows directly over, and on the shadow spears that burst out, it was as if they were covered with ice sculptures, and they seemed to be a little slow to control!
And in this moment, the other party had already rushed to his side, and her long leg fiercely slashed towards his head.
Qin Jin-nian didn’t dare to be careless, the shadows turned, turning into a shadow shield covering his body.
Bang!!!
With a loud bang, Qin Jin-nian felt a huge force coming, and his body couldn’t help but stagger two steps.
Looking at the shadow shield again, cracks actually appeared again. And on those cracks, there was even frost attached.
“?!”
Qin Jin-nian was shocked.
This was the second time the shadow shield was close to breaking.
Qin Jin-nian was surprised, and the woman seemed to be a little surprised as well. A trace of seriousness appeared in her eyes, but she didn’t speak, and her figure leaped up fiercely, and another leg swing attacked Qin Jin-nian’s head.
This time, the blue light on her foot was even stronger, and the sound of the wind carried coldness, which made Qin Jin-nian feel cold even through the shadow shield.
Qin Jin-nian didn’t dare to be careless again, while his body retreated, dozens of shadow spikes attacked the other party.
Suddenly, so many shadow spikes attacked again, and the woman’s expression was slightly cold. Then, she saw her using both fists and feet, fiercely attacking the shadow spikes.
The places she touched were all condensed with blue frost!
But the tenacity of the shadows was beyond imagination, and although they were frozen, they didn’t break.
More seriousness appeared in the woman’s eyes. She was like a ghost, and after landing, she swayed a few times, dodging Qin Jin-nian’s shadow spikes, and approached him again, punching towards Qin Jin-nian’s chest.
The fist was attached with blue light.
Qin Jin-nian’s mind moved, and a huge pitch-black shadow gate, like a steel plate, suddenly appeared out of thin air.
Clang!!
With a loud bang, the fist struck the shadow gate, but the shadow gate didn’t move at all. However, the central part suddenly spread out a ball of blue shadow, as if to turn the shadow gate into an ice sculpture.
And Qin Jin-nian’s figure had already taken the opportunity to retreat.
Facing the sudden appearance of the shadow gate, the expression on the woman’s face became even more serious. She wanted to pursue, but Qin Jin-nian retreated to the edge of the building’s rooftop, and dozens of shadow tentacles reached out towards the building behind him.
Then he said in a hoarse voice: “I am not a member of the Church of the End, nor am I an enemy of the Night Watch… Don’t waste your time on me.”
As soon as the words fell, his figure had already jumped off the high building, and the shadow tentacles behind him grabbed the distant buildings, pulling him fiercely, and immediately, the whole person broke through the air as if flying away.
And at the moment he spoke, the woman had already stopped, and a look of surprise appeared on her ice-sculpted face.
“Zhang San?”
She spoke.
