“He ran?”

Wu Yong was stunned.

The azure sky stretched open, and countless raindrops fell.

Song Ci, who had single-handedly resisted thousands of bullets and arrows, chose to flee with just a shake of his body?

Qi Lu hadn't expected it either. He silently carried the butt of his sniper rifle, slowly stood up, and stood in the pouring rain. After the purple-silver bullet missed, he already knew that this duel would be no easy task, and he was even prepared for the worst.

In a duel between transcendents, filling the gap in strength with numbers requires a very heavy sacrifice.

Judging from the ghostly movement technique that Crow had just displayed… if it came to close combat, almost no one could withstand a single blow from him. If they really managed to stop this number one powerhouse of the Beitang, he didn't know how many brothers who had come to the riverbank tonight would die.

"He doesn't want to confront 'Tianmu,' that's why he's running… We can't let him just run like that!"

Wu Yong was the first to react. He drew his long saber and ran on the river water. The night fog was cut open by the blade, and he shouted loudly, "Follow me across the river!"

The azure sky flickered with arcs of light, and the falling raindrops froze in an instant. These "water droplets," which were obviously controlled by someone, seemed to be frozen in time, suspended above the river with distinct particles, closely adhering to a layer.

As Wu Yong's voice fell!

Thousands of water droplets surged and rolled, converging towards the center of the river, forming a straight line.

Rainwater paved a bridge.

Wu Yong took a step down, and the water bridge was extremely solid. It was only stepped on with a slightly downward dent, which quickly and elastically recovered. The black trench coat man in the long night ran extremely fast. His coat was blown parallel to the river by the strong wind, like a huge black bird crossing the river. Behind him, the convoy started quickly, like a herd of off-road horses hitting a swamp. The rough tires slammed heavily on the water bridge, and the roaring cylinders steamed out white mist.

Tianmu was extending into the distance.

Being able to cover a river area… was already an extremely terrifying ability. Even deep-sea high-level transcendents couldn't use their power at will. Mortals always have limits.

This extending Tianmu was doing its best to envelop the figure at the front.

And the price paid was… the rear of Tianmu was forced to retreat. The overall coverage area of this curtain had been stretched to the maximum, and it could shatter at any time.

The transcendent who controlled "Tianmu," the first of Chen San's four adopted sons, never showed up, but it was certain that he was in the convoy. This was a very smart approach. Under the cover of this curtain, the weather was controlled, and Wu Yong and Qi Lu's side had the absolute home-field advantage. Before knowing Crow's true ability, the Tianmu controller should sit in the rear.

But the biggest problem was that in order to maintain Tianmu, the convoy had to keep up with Crow's speed.

Wu Yong, who was running at top speed on the surface of the river, had a wisp of gloom entwined between his brows. The more he chased Crow, the stronger the ominous premonition in his heart became.

The fog on the river was too thick, and many people had lost their vision, relying on Tianmu's guidance to find their way. Lao San's "Eagle Eye" was in a state of overdraft and would need some time to recover.

Crow's speed was very fast, and it had never changed from beginning to end… like a tireless ostrich.

He didn't cross the river.

Instead, he continued to run along the heart of the river towards the desolate downstream.

It was impossible to figure out whether he was running away with all his might or playing with his opponent.

This strategy was undoubtedly effective.

Because some people had already started to fall behind… Under the condition of maintaining full speed, the engine could hardly withstand long-term overload operation. Once it overheated and exploded, it would be directly thrown out of the high-speed moving Tianmu field.

And the result of falling behind was very simple.

Outside the Tianmu field, the river would no longer condense a water bridge.

Wu Yong had already realized it.

From the moment he decided to step into the river, the initiative had changed. A group of lone wolves decided to hunt prey, thinking that the other party was a lion and that they would face a deadly battle with a clear posture, but they didn't expect the other party to be a fox who turned around and fled, setting up layers of traps.

So the deeper they went, the more they found themselves in a quagmire.

……

……

Nanwan Building, as famous as Huazhi, has a total of thirty-nine floors.

This is the main stronghold of the Nan Tang of the Chengxin Society, with almost the same strategic distribution as Huazhi. This is the fundamental reason why the two big figures, Zhao and Chen, can feel at ease with each other… The other party's deployment is in their eyes.

In fact, there are a total of three councilor seats in the capital.

Due to some reason… only two of the three chairs left for the capital are occupied. This is the best result for everyone at present, because the appearance of any other councilor will break the balance.

"If Nanwan Building has a similar layout to Huazhi, then apart from the thirty-nine floors above ground, there should be ten floors underground…"

"Which floor will the closed-circuit host storing Chengxin Society's information be on?"

Gu Shen had a headache.

He had already arrived in front of Nanwan Building. At this moment, he was standing at the farthest end of the street, looking at this thin and bony high-rise building. Under the light, it had a cold and sharp feeling.

Because Cui Zhongcheng had taken him to the underground of Huazhi.

So at first, Gu Shen guessed… important things must be buried under the building.

But soon this conjecture was denied by him.

Gu Shen had just been to the underground of Huazhi Building.

Because everything here is handed over to the deep sea for management because it involves the operation of the transcendent world… If the idea of designing a closed-circuit host is to hide it from the deep sea and avoid linking, then this host should not be buried underground.

This "secret" should be placed above the ground.

Of course.

This was just a guess.

"But there are thirty-nine floors above ground…"

This closed-circuit host doesn't need to work usually. It only needs to have an independent power supply, be placed in a specific area, and maintain writing and recording at a specific time period.

As long as this can be guaranteed, it can appear anywhere!

Many things… can only be tried in a very stupid and clumsy way.

Finding the closed-circuit host is such a thing.

The defense of Nanwan Building will be very loose tonight. If you want to find Shi Li's introducer, then this is the best opportunity.

The game with the compass master… is worth the risk.

It is worth noting that even though Jiangtan has attracted a large number of transcendents, Nanwan Building still has a strict and comprehensive protection measure. The difficulty of his actions is very high.

Fortunately, Gu Shen has prepared a relatively complete action plan.

Gu Shen silently lowered his hat.

He walked towards Nanwan Building.

Four or five strands of invisible flames swept out from Gu Shen's brow.

Immediately afterwards, the few passers-by who brushed past Gu Shen on the subsequent short journey stopped in their tracks while walking. They stood in place, looking strangely at the young man, their eyes gradually becoming blank.

……

……

"Please wait, we need to verify your identity…"

Before arriving at Nanwan Building, the 24-hour security personnel responsible for guarding stopped Gu Shen.

"I'm just here to pick up a document…"

Gu Shen smiled gently and slowly raised his head.

After a face-to-face.

"……"

The security guard's eyes became blank, and he slowly returned to his original position, his expression numb.

The door of the building slowly opened.

Gu Shen didn't enter. He just narrowed his eyes and raised his head slightly with an extremely subtle movement.

He saw clearly the location of the surveillance cameras installed in the building… His previous conversation with the security guard should not have looked abnormal in the surveillance. There were many people entering and leaving Nanwan Building every day, and no one could recognize every face.

He just talked and stepped back.

And the security guard also returned to his original position. This scene looked like he had rejected someone entering the building.

So, at this moment, the person on duty in the monitoring room should not have noticed anything wrong with his appearance.

But from this moment on.

The plan has begun!

"No matter how well prepared you are, you will be exposed as soon as you enter the building. So before you are exposed, you need to act quickly, find the host, and then evacuate…"

Gu Shen took a light breath and calmed his emotions.

"I need to start checking from the most likely thirty-ninth floor first… But directly entering the thirty-ninth floor will attract attention."

"So… I need a little help."

Gu Shen turned around and left.

Several familiar figures soon appeared in front of him. Four or five young men and women walked towards the building in a hurry. Their expressions were wooden, and they entered the building without any hindrance.

And they came to the elevator in Nanwan Building… a total of twelve elevators.

With the arrival of these people, the monitoring room has become alert… Now is not working time.

Although some employees of Nanwan Building are still in a state of working overtime, it is rare for so many people to flood in together and be scattered at different elevator entrances.

"Nine five two seven, nine five two seven--"

The call in the headset was not answered.

The security guard at the entrance of the building stood blankly in front of the door, ignoring the sound coming from the communicator.

Immediately afterwards.

These men and women poured into different elevators, and each of them pressed a different floor.

Then, they raised their heads and calmly looked directly at the surveillance.

And then there was -

With a "Shua" sound!

The screens of the monitoring room corresponding to their elevators went out one after another.

The elevator went up slowly.

Gu Shen, who was standing outside the building, pressed his back tightly against the wall. Gu Shen stood in the blind spot of the surveillance and his face was a little pale.

This was the first time he had let Chihuo leave his body and go to such a distant place.

The plan to enter Nanwan Building was not complicated.

He used the third-level ability of the mental system, "Mass Hypnosis", to impose simple psychological suggestions on the passers-by he encountered randomly.

After hypnotizing the gatekeeper of Nanwan Building, these people could enter the building unimpeded, and they only needed to enter the elevator and randomly press the button on a certain floor.

False information was transmitted.

The attention of the monitoring room would be attracted by these people… And what he had to do was very simple, retrieve Chihuo, and at the same time burn down the elevator compartment and the surveillance at the entrance of the building.

Gu Shen stretched out his palm, and his mental power was like a fishing line, and began to gather!

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh--"

A strand of invisible slender flames swept out from the eyebrows of the passers-by, and this strand of flames instantly plunged into the camera. The blazing high temperature instantly caused the monitoring room to lose its vision.

In the end, the fishing line transformed by mental power was reeled in, and the seemingly strong alloy surface of the elevator was scorched and pierced within a few seconds.

Ten seconds after the surveillance went out.

The scattered Chihuo re-gathered outside the building, in the palm of Gu Shen's hand.
