“Although what they say doesn’t seem like a lie, they don’t look very capable.

It’s a bit of a loss to cooperate with them.”

“And you even gave them potions.

What if they turn around and aim at us?”

“That initial investment is necessary,” Xu Huo was not too worried.

“You should find another place to stay tomorrow.”

Yuan Yao was stunned for a moment.

“Why?

Isn’t this place good?

It’s nice and quiet.”

“Yeah, someone could come in and kill you, and it might be ten days to half a month before anyone discovers your body,” Xu Huo said indifferently.

Yuan Yao shivered.

“Move!

We’ll move immediately!”

The next morning, Xu Huo settled the rent with the landlord and moved to a residential area in the center of the old city district.

The place was bustling with people, the security guard was somewhat reliable, and the transportation was convenient, making things easier for Xu Huo.

Xu Huo didn’t have many things to move, most of which were handled by Yuan Yao and Girl in the painting.

Yuan Yao had hidden under the bed the night before and hadn’t seen Girl in the painting transform into paper.

Seeing her carry luggage skillfully, he couldn’t help but give Xu Huo a thumbs-up.

The boss sure does things differently, treating women like men!

After settling into the newly rented house, Xu Huo called up Yuan Yao and Girl in the painting to go to Zhou Ning’s place together.

Zhou Ning lived in a resettlement housing area.

The old and dilapidated neighborhood was small and run-down, every household protected with iron bars.

The windows were either covered with potted plants or clothes, blocking most of the view, making it difficult to see inside the houses from the outside.

“I’m here.” Xu Huo accurately detected the people hiding in the buildings on both sides and said into the phone.

Soon, two young men came down, one with a weaselly face and shifty eyes, constantly darting his gaze around, the other looking like a student, hunched over with thick platform shoes that lacked vitality.

“So you’re Xu Huo?” The man with the sharp face sized up the trio and lifted his chin.

“Follow me.”

The two men walked ahead, with Xu Huo and the others behind, entering a building inside and stopped in front of an apartment on the fourth floor.

The door was quickly unlocked from inside.

The door was opened by Hu Zi, whom they had met the day before at the villa.

He let them in first and sniffed around in the hallway before closing the door.

“Let me introduce, this is Tian Yun and Yu Xiaoyu,” Hu Zi said.

“Tian Yun used to drive a taxi, and Xiaoyu dropped out of high school.

He and Ah-Xiao were classmates.”

Xu Huo nodded and glanced at the scattered cut hair on the floor.

“Where’s Zhou Ning?”

“Sister Ning is in the bathroom,” said Hu Zi.

As he spoke, Zhou Ning came out holding a freshly cut braid, exhausted but with a hint of excitement.

“Mr.

Xu, you’re here.”

Xu Huo didn’t ask about the effect of the Hair Growth Potion but got straight to the point, “My friend has found the person who posted the baiting thread and also a suspected member of the Holy Sword Society.”

“Found that bastard!

Where is he?” Hu Zi slammed the table and exclaimed angrily.

“First listen to what Mr.

Xu has to say,” Zhou Ning stopped him and motioned for Xu Huo to continue.

“Both of them are players.

I don’t know their occupations and traits, and I don’t know your occupations and traits either.

Are the four of you confident you can catch them?” Xu Huo asked.

“The four of us can’t take down two players?” Hu Zi said.

“Mr.

Xu, you’re underestimating us!”

“The two of you together couldn’t even defeat Brother Xu last night,” Yuan Yao chimed in from the side.

Hu Zi sheepishly said, “That’s different.”

“There’s no difference,” Xu Huo lit a cigarette.

“Evolvers enter the game at different times.

You have no idea how many levels your opponents have been through, whether they have powerful equipment, or if their occupation traits are strong or weak.”

“I don’t have any close-combat equipment, but I can still take the two of you down with my traits.

Are you sure that the Holy Sword Society member is not as skilled as me?”

“What will you do if the other side has super-strong equipment?”

“Have you ever encountered a Cannibal Player who survived from the instances?”

His questions caused the newly confident Zhou Ning and the others to become anxious.

Tian Yun, with a sharp face, said, “According to what you’re saying, do we not even need to fight them?”

“Of course not,” Xu Huo flicked off some ash.

“Since we are going to war with a Player Organization, these questions should be considered beforehand to prevent accidents during the process.”

“Do you have a plan?” Yu Xiaoyu asked weakly.

“One that guarantees we can rescue Zhou Xiao without fail?”

“There is no such thing as a foolproof plan,” Xu Huo paused and asked, “Among you guys, is Hu Wenhao the only one good at close combat?”

The four exchanged glances before Zhou Ning said, “Tian Yun, Xiaoyu, you two talk about your traits.”

When it comes to traits, as soon as you’re in a real fight, they’re easy to spot—a general direction is no issue to reveal.

“I’m just fast, weaker in strength and agility compared to the average Evolver,” Tian Yun said.

“However, I can reach twice the speed of a normal Evolver.”

“My body can become very light, enough to walk on grass tips,” Yu Xiaoyu said.

“It’s a bit like ‘Flying on the Grass’ in martial arts novels.

But after this characteristic emerges, I become very frail, and my limbs easily break.”

“That doesn’t seem very useful,” Yuan Yao murmured.

Xu Huo looked down at his shoes.

“Did you add something to the soles?”

“Iron chunks,” Yu Xiaoyu said, somewhat surprised.

“But I still walk normally.

I’m just not used to feeling light, so I added the weight.”

“Ever tried wall-running?” Xu Huo pondered and asked.

“Have you watched parkour videos?”

Yu Xiaoyu nodded.

“But just running isn’t very useful.”

“It’s useful,” Xu Huo was about to say something when his phone suddenly rang.

He answered it; it was Huang Junjie calling.

“Any change in the situation?”

“No.” Huang Junjie had received a call from Xu Huo the night before and had rushed over from the neighboring city overnight.

He was monitoring the baiting player from the morning and had discovered that the baiting player seemed to be connected to another man with a triangular sword tattoo.

“The other one is a Cannibal Player,” he said.

“That damn bastard just killed somebody.”

Xu Huo frowned.

“Did he leave?”

“No, I don’t think they will leave their residence anytime soon.

What’s the situation on your end, when do you plan to act?”

Xu Huo glanced outside.

“After dark.

Have you seen Yan Jiayu?”

Besides Huang Junjie, he had also contacted Yan Jiayu and Liu Jia.

Fortunately, neither of them was in an instance, and Liu Jia had already gone to the position Xu Huo arranged beforehand.

“She left a while ago.

She’s probably at the construction site on Sunshine Avenue right now.”

“Okay, we’ll leave as soon as we’re ready.” Xu Huo hung up the phone and, based on the traits of Zhou Ning and the others, divided them into two groups.

Zhou Ning and Yuan Yao were to meet up with Huang Junjie, and Hu Wenhao, Tian Yun, and Yu Xiaoyu would go with him.
