Chapter 22 You've Been Targeted, You're Dumb, I Can Breath Fire
Stepping out of the restaurant, a cool breeze greeted me, which was quite refreshing.
Although it was already late at night.
But the number of people coming and going on the street did not decrease much.
While the streets were brightly lit, life was far from easy for the disaster victims outside the county town.
"Um?"
"This taste?"
"You're following me!?"
At this moment, as Lin Zhou walked forward, he could smell a faint, strange odor, which was following him discreetly about ten steps behind him.
However, no matter who it is, for Lin Zhou, once the attribute of enhanced sense of smell is added, that person will have nowhere to hide.
"I haven't made any enemies in Taihu County, have I?"
"Could it be the mortal enemy of Sect Master Li from the Qingyuan Sect?"
"Even if they are mortal enemies, they might not necessarily kill him outright in this city, right?"
A look of doubt flashed in Lin Zhou's eyes.
"Continuing on like this isn't very safe. It would be safer to go back to the restaurant."
Lin Zhou pondered this in his heart.
Immediately after Lin Zhou took a few steps back, he smelled a slightly familiar strange smell, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"This taste..."
"It's those bloodworms!"
Lin Zhou will never forget this taste.
Especially the smell of the bloodworms. Lin Zhou knew very well that if anyone in the county town was found to be emitting this smell, they were very likely the one who had poisoned the insects.
The strange smell of these bloodworms won't linger for long, even if a person gets on them.
The strange smell of the bloodworms on this person was almost stronger than the bloodworms themselves, which indicates that this person was frequently in contact with them, and that the number of bloodworms they came into contact with was definitely not small.
"Disciple of the Demonic Sect!"
Geek!
Lin Zhou immediately made a decision.
I was already being very careful, but to my dismay, this happened the first time I came out of the door.
If those bloodworms were planted by these demonic sect disciples, once they enter this county, they will definitely try to find out who can cure the blood eye disease, and I am one of them.
Replace the entry with "fire-breathing".
[Entry Position: Level 1 Flamethrower]
The next moment, Lin Zhou felt a considerable and enormous power emerge within his body, waiting to be unleashed at any moment.
With the help of the entry, Lin Zhou felt a little more at ease.
However, they remain extremely vigilant.
Who knows if these guys, who are suspected to be disciples of the Demonic Sect, have any other Gu worms besides the blood worms? If they were to attack me, I might not be able to defend myself at all.
Lin Zhou walked back.
But then, for some reason, the number of pedestrians at the street corner became much smaller, almost nonexistent.
Bang! !
In the blink of an eye, the porter, who was seven or eight steps in front of him, wearing a straw hat and an ordinary hemp coat, suddenly took out a rather large bead from his pocket and smashed it hard on the ground.
A burst of smoke instantly obscured the street around the corner.
"What happened?"
"Where did all this smoke come from!"
"It's like seeing a ghost in the middle of the night."
Several pedestrians on the road, enveloped by the smoke, exclaimed in surprise, unable to see their surroundings clearly.
Swish!
Yang Yuan, an ordinary disciple of the Hundred Gu Sect disguised as a porter, saw Lin Zhou suddenly turn back and get closer to him. Since Lin Zhou was not going to move forward, he decided to just kidnap him.
Yang Yuan also wanted to know what kind of talent Lin Zhou had that enabled him to extract the blood-fusion worms that had burrowed into his body.
"Got you!"
Yang Yuan passed through layers of thick fog and saw the silhouette of Lin Zhou. His footwork was swift, and he was within a step or two of Lin Zhou in the blink of an eye.
"He's just a greenhorn in the Skin Refining stage; catching him won't take much effort at all."
Yang Yuan's lips curled into a cold smile.
But then, Yang Yuan felt a huge sense of threat descend upon him, and a chill ran down his spine.
When he looked up at Lin Zhou, Lin Zhou opened his mouth, and a bright flame could be clearly seen emerging from his throat.
The next moment, a dazzling pillar of fire spewed from Lin Zhou's mouth, completely filling his vision.
"Breathing in fire!?"
"How can this person breathe fire?"
Before losing consciousness, Yang Yuan couldn't understand this matter at all.
Lin Zhou hadn't expected that this demonic sect disciple had smoke bombs, which saved him the trouble of concealing himself. As long as he dared to get close, he could just breathe fire and blast him to death.
Bang!
The demonic sect disciple whose head was burned off by the pillar of fire at close range crashed heavily to the ground with a muffled thud.
A burnt smell filled the air.
You're kidding me! I can breathe fire!
Lin Zhou glanced at the headless corpse on the ground, then replaced his agility attribute with the "Lightness" attribute and quickly began to fly towards the corner of the street. The speed that his agility attribute could provide was not very fast.
However, the jumping ability granted by the Lightness attribute is outstanding.
Lin Zhou leaped over the high wall from the alleyway in a few quick movements, and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.
soon.
A piercing scream came from the street corner where Lin Zhou was standing behind him.
It must be that the headless corpse of that demonic disciple has been discovered!
...
...
The next day.
Early in the morning.
Lin Zhou was then summoned by Sect Leader Li Sui.
He then led Lin Zhou directly out of Qingyuan Gate, got into a carriage, and headed somewhere unknown.
On the carriage, Wang Yaoshi, who was still quite sleepy, leaned to one side and dozed off as soon as he got in.
"Pharmacist Lin, was your journey home last night smooth?"
Li Sui asked with a solemn expression.
"That went smoothly!"
"After returning, I also took a medicinal bath."
Lin Zhou's expression was normal, but a hint of doubt appeared in his eyes.
"Sect Leader Li, what has happened? Where are we headed?"
Lin Zhou asked.
"Something happened on Shunhe Street last night. A person who appeared to be a disciple of the demonic path died. The clothing he wore confirmed his identity, and he also had a token in his hand. He was a disciple of the Hundred Poisons Sect."
Li Sui said in a solemn tone.
"The Hundred Poisons Sect?"
Lin Zhou only now learned the identity of that demonic sect disciple.
"That's right."
"This Hundred Gu Sect should be a demonic sect force in the prefectural city. This time, the demonic sect disciple died in a strange manner, so I took you to the county jail to see if we could diagnose anything and whether there were any other causes of death for this demonic sect disciple."
Li then spoke.
"After all, my eldest son has only become an ordinary constable of the Divine Constable Sect. If he completes something involving disciples of the Demonic Sect, he can earn a lot of contribution points from the sect."
Li Sui spoke frankly and without any attempt to conceal anything.
This was all for his son.
"However, based on Elder Chen's previous assessment, it seems that the demonic sect disciple's head was blasted apart by an extremely terrifying fire-type energy."
"But with such powerful energy, one can burn a head off in an instant."
"At least a top expert in the Transformation Realm."
"But if such a master were to actually appear in their Taihu County, then none of the gangs in the county would be a match for him."
"Once this person decides to kill, we'll be nothing more than fish on his chopping block."
Li Sui said with a solemn expression.
