The Counterattack of the Villains

On the seventh floor, the elevator door opened, and Xiao Honglu, Arnold, and Shuntaro Soya walked out of the elevator one after another.

Xiao Honglu went straight to the end on the right, because from this position he could have a panoramic view of the entire apartment building.

When a ghost appears, he will notify others of his location through the walkie-talkie, allowing everyone to respond promptly.

Arnold, however, stood at the entrance of the corridor next to the elevator. He would stay here for a while to prevent the ghost from going up to the seventh floor as soon as the game started and threatening Xiao Honglu's safety.

If the ghost doesn't go directly to the seventh floor, he will go to the corridor and search for "positions" from room to room.

If the ghost takes the elevator to the seventh floor, he will kill the ghost directly here and then go out to search for positions.

With his strength, if caught off guard, one punch would be enough to knock out a special soldier like Wang Xia, leaving the opponent with no chance to shoot.

Although the physical limit of a created human being is twice that of an ordinary person, due to different body shapes and ability settings, the actual combat effectiveness will also vary.

When Chu Xuan created Arnold, everything was set according to extreme standards.

His body shape is the limit that can be achieved by creating a human being, and his muscle strength, cell activity, and nerve reflexes are all twice the limit.

Because only with this kind of body shape can his physical fitness reach twice the limit.

Although Changkong Wuji and Li Yingqi also have extreme physiques, they are only the limits they can reach under their body types.

So in terms of absolute power, they are far inferior to Arnold.

It's just that because they are set to be masters of martial arts, they know a variety of unique force-generating techniques and can concentrate their entire body's strength.

Therefore, in terms of explosive power, they are not weaker than Arnold at all, but rather stronger.

In terms of combat effectiveness, Chu Xuan's setting of Arnold is a special elite who is proficient in various military combat skills.

If it is a military battle, Arnold can completely defeat Changkong Wuji and Li Yingqi.

But if it's a one-on-one fight, the situation will be reversed.

This is the difference in abilities caused by different settings for creating humans.

Of course, the original setting is not absolute, and abilities can be learned later.

Changkong Wuji and Li Yingqi can learn military combat skills, and Arnold can also learn Chinese martial arts or other fighting skills.

…

After Xiao Honglu was in place, he turned to look at Shuntaro Soya who was watching him with interest, and asked deliberately: "Why are you here if you don't want to find a position? Do you want to win by lying down?"

Shuntaro Soya smiled and said lazily: "Since you can win by lying down, why do you have to fight so hard?"

Xiao Honglu curled his lips and said: "The chance of winning is not always there. Sometimes when you think you are smart, you will lose some opportunities to gain reliable teammates."

Hearing what he said, Shuntaro Soya became even more interested in him. He leaned against the wall, looked at him with a smile and said, "Boy, you don't look like a child at all."

Although it seems that this group of people is indeed very reliable at present, we have to see the results before we can make a conclusion.

Xiao Honglu asked with a half-smile: "Why do you think they dare to give me such an important position?"

This position can be called the most important position. It corresponds to the combat team in special operations. This is the position of the command team.

Shuntaro Soya smiled and said, "Because you are very smart?"

Xiao Honglu said: "Do you know what I used to do?"

Shuntaro Soya said: "I'm really curious."

Xiao Honglu said: "I used to do research in a mental hospital."

Shuntaro Soya asked curiously: "What research are you doing?"

Xiao Honglu grinned and said, "It's being studied."

Regarding Xiao Honglu's joke that he didn't understand, Shuntaro Soya didn't get the laugh, but he noticed other aspects.

"You mean, you are a research material? So what is your research value?"

Xiao Honglu said calmly: "I had a mutation in my cerebral cortex since I was a child, and the folds were abnormally developed. When I was five years old, my IQ was already as high as 198, which is close to what someone calls the 'peak of mortal wisdom'."

Shuntaro Soya exclaimed: "It's so awesome, is it true?"

Xiao Honglu raised his head slightly, looked at him and said: "I can see that your IQ is not low, and you have an extremely calm mind."

"Your calmness has even reached the point of being ruthless. You have no regard for life, including your own life. Am I right?"

Shuntaro Soya looked at Xiao Honglu blankly, and said slightly absentmindedly: "How did you deduce these? This can't be done by being smart, right?"

The corners of Xiao Honglu's mouth raised slightly, and he said calmly: "You don't understand the world of super geniuses, because you are just an ordinary genius."

"To deduce these, I only need to use your eyes, micro-expressions, and micro-movements."

Shuntaro Soya was stunned for a moment by Xiao Honglu. He didn't know how to refute or question at all.

Because what Xiao Honglu said should not be known to any outsider except himself.

But what he said was completely accurate, without any mistakes.

Shuntaro Soya is a doctor in the real world, and the reason why he chooses to be a doctor is because he wants to know whether he cares about life.

"Dingdong...the game officially begins, the time limit is 20 minutes, and the ghosts are about to appear."

After this game information was prompted, a bugle sound sounded in the apartment, and people on all floors became vigilant.

Xiao Honglu stopped talking nonsense to Shuntaro Soya, and his eyes wandered back and forth between the elevators on each floor.

At this time, the Zhongzhou team has not yet started to take action. Because it is not safe, they are hiding at the entrance of the corridor at both ends.

Only after confirming the traces of ghosts will they take action to ensure safety.

Zhao Yingkong, who is in charge of the fourth floor, has tried room 406. The room cannot be opened. This is not the location of the battle. The Lord God has indeed changed the plot.

Other indigenous players are scattered on various floors. The middle-aged woman is on the fifth floor, the middle-aged man in a dark blue suit is on the sixth floor, and the middle-aged man in a white shirt is on the third floor.

Finally, there are two young women, Aso and Xiaocai, who are on the second floor.

The natives had been trying to open the doors in each room. After the bugle sounded, they subconsciously stopped where they were, waiting for any movement.

They are different from the Zhongzhou team. Because they don't understand the game, they can only act according to their own experience.

Watching all this, Shuntaro Soya said helplessly: "In this situation, he actually stopped where he was. I really don't know how to write the word "death".

Indeed, since the ghost is about to appear, the best choice now is to run to both ends of the floor and avoid going up or down depending on the situation.

Standing carelessly in the corridor like this, once the ghost appears, you can catch one no matter what.

Because they do not have the speed and ability to quickly leave the ghost's sight after encountering it.

"Ding...ding"

Two sounds of the elevator stopping sounded in the quiet apartment, one on the right side of the sixth floor and one on the left side of the second floor.

Coincidentally, Changkong Wuji on the sixth floor was hiding in the left corridor, and Li Yingqi on the second floor was in the right corridor. They happened to avoid the ghosts.

Of course, this also caused them to lose the opportunity to kill the ghost at the beginning.

Xiao Honglu muttered to himself in a low voice: "There are actually two ghosts. The Lord God has indeed increased the difficulty."

Soon, a ghost wearing a dark green combat uniform and a horse hood came out of the elevator on the sixth floor.

He held an M10 submachine gun in his hand and had a spare magazine inserted into his waist.

After the ghost turned out of the elevator, he immediately saw the middle-aged man in a suit standing in the corridor.

"Ahhhh..."

When the ghost raised his submachine gun at him, the middle-aged man in the suit reacted, let out a series of frightened howls, turned around and ran away to the other side.

"Da da da"

Gunshots rang out in the quiet apartment. A standard burst of fire. Blood splattered on the back of the middle-aged man in a suit. He fell to the ground ten meters away from the end.

It’s no wonder that the middle-aged man in the suit wanted to commit suicide. After all, he didn’t know the specific situation of the so-called “ghosts” and how they would attack them.

At the same time, a ghost wearing a bull head hood walked out of the elevator on the second floor. Obviously, the ghost in this game corresponds to the bull head and horse face.

The image of traditional ghosts in neon is greatly influenced by Chinese Taoism. The bull-headed ghost and horse-headed ghost in neon are also the jailers of hell.

While they are powerful ghosts, they often appear in the human world to punish sinners and lead people to hell. There are corresponding depictions in the neon ghost book "The Story of the Past".

After the Minotaur Ghost walked out of the elevator, Aso and Xiaocai, who were running to the opposite side in the corridor, naturally fell into his sight instantly.

Without any hesitation, the Minotaur raised his hand, made a slight dash, and pulled the trigger on the two women.

"Da da da da..."

The Minotaur used strafing fire. In just over a second, the 32-round magazine was emptied, and the two girls fell into a pool of blood.

While changing the magazine, the Minotaur turned around and headed for the stairs, because there was no one else in the corridor on this floor in sight.

The same move was used to kill the middle-aged horse-headed ghost in a suit on the sixth floor, but it is not clear yet whether they are going up or down.

At the end of the right side of the seventh floor, Xiao Honglu pressed the call button on the earphone, put it to his mouth and said: "There are two ghosts, one on the left side of the second floor and one on the right side of the sixth floor. They are now preparing to enter the corridor."

"I don't know if they plan to go up or down. People on floors 1, 3, 5, 7, and 4 should pay attention. Floors 2, 4, and 6 can start searching for positions first. It's over."

There happen to be three masters, Li Yingqi, Zhao Yingkong, and Changkong Wuji, on the 24th and 6th floors. Even if they are in the middle of the corridor when the ghost arrives, they are not afraid.

Time is very tight and they must start searching for positions as soon as possible.

Zheng Zha on the first floor and Zhu Wen on the third floor rushed to the right corridor to avoid the Minotaur on the second floor.

Zhan Lan, who was on the fifth floor, ran to the fourth floor. She didn't plan to run to the left corridor, fearing that she wouldn't be able to make it in time.

Although she carried a pistol on her body, it was still too risky to fight with the ghost's micro-gun.

So she planned to meet up with Zhao Yingkong on the fourth floor first. If the horse-headed ghost upstairs went all the way down, they would kill one ghost first.

And if the horse-headed ghost goes to the seventh floor, Arnold's iron fist is waiting for him.

Li Yingqi, Zhao Yingkong, and Changkong Wuji began to turn doorknobs from house to house, searching for the location of the position.

The three of them were very fast, checking the room at an average speed of two seconds.

Not long after, the ghosts appeared in the corridor again. The Minotaur ghost on the second floor went up to the third floor, and the Horse-headed ghost on the sixth floor went down to the fifth floor.

The middle-aged man in a white shirt on the fifth floor was unable to escape and was killed by the horse-headed ghost. The middle-aged woman on the third floor was spared because she followed Zhu Wen and fled to the right.

Although the corridor on the third floor was empty, the Minotaur did not continue going upstairs directly. Instead, he walked along the corridor, intending to move to the corridor on the right.

Xiao Honglu immediately reminded: "The Minotaur on the third floor is moving to the right. Zhu Wen goes down to the second floor and goes back to the left from the corridor on the second floor. When the Minotaur leaves the third floor, you can go back to the third floor to check the room."

"Zheng Zha and Long Tian can start investigating the first floor. You are the safest. Over."

Zhu Wen and Zheng Zha each responded: "Understood."

Now Zheng Zha and Longtian Kangda began to check the rooms on the first floor. Zheng Zha was responsible for the vertical arrangement of the T-shaped floors, and Longtian Kangda was responsible for the horizontal arrangement.

There are a total of 15 rooms on each floor, 7 horizontally and 8 vertically. They can check them quickly, and it will not take more than 1 minute.

After the horse-headed ghost on the fifth floor took off the middle-aged man's shirt, he also began to move along the corridor to the left.

Under the joint investigation of Zhao Yingkong and Zhan Lan, the fourth floor was quickly completed. It was obvious that the positions were not on the first and fourth floors.

Zhao Yingkong said to Zhan Lan: "I will ambush at the left corridor entrance and kill the horse-headed ghost. You go back to the fifth floor to investigate first."

Zhan Lan nodded and ran towards the corridor entrance with Zhao Yingkong.

Just like that, Xiao Honglu had an overall overview and reported the ghost's movement at any time. The Zhongzhou team moved calmly and checked the room step by step without any surprise or danger.

However, when Zhao Yingkong came to the left corridor entrance on the fourth floor, he saw Su Guodu Yuan holding a fire extinguisher and leaning against the side wall of the corridor entrance.

Once the ghost comes out of it, it will get a hard blow.

Seeing Zhao Yingkong running over, Su Guo Duyuan glanced at her and said calmly: "You're here just in time, help attract the ghost's attention."

Zhao Yingkong had a look of disdain on his face when he heard this. He walked straight into the corridor and squatted down behind the corner of the corridor without even bothering him.

Su Guo Du Yuan was ignored by Zhao Yingkong and was a little speechless.

According to Anri Tsuruna, this girl came from an ancient assassin family, and he did feel a huge threat from her.

But now that she was unarmed, Su Guodu Yuan was really curious about how the other party would kill the ghost holding a micro punch without weapons.

So he walked into the corridor with the fire extinguisher, and then walked straight upstairs.

Su Guodu Yuan pretended to accidentally walk out of the corridor on the fifth floor and bumped into the horse-headed ghost.

Then, the moment the horse-headed ghost raised his gun, he suddenly retracted into the corridor.

The horse-headed ghost quickened his pace to catch up. Su Guo Duyuan went down to the fourth floor again, ran out of the corridor and ran towards the fourth floor corridor.

The horse-headed ghost sneered secretly when he saw this. The corridor was about forty meters long. No matter how fast he was, he couldn't escape to the other side when he chased him to the corridor.

Just when the horse-headed ghost confidently chased him out of the corridor and was about to kill Su Guoduyuan, Zhao Yingkong at the corner had already launched a thunderous strike.

She moved like a rabbit, but she was silent. Although she revealed her murderous intent at this moment, any master would be aware of the coming murderous intent and react accordingly.

But this horse-headed ghost is not a master, he is just an ordinary warrior, so naturally he cannot sense murderous aura.

The moment Zhao Yingkong started, he opened and closed his right hand, just in time to hold the sharp fruit knife that slipped out of his sleeve upside down in his hand.

The next moment, she jumped up and jumped lightly onto the horse-headed ghost's back.

"Card"

The moment the horse-headed ghost felt his body sink, the fruit knife had already pierced the horse-headed hood and was inserted squarely into his temple until it penetrated the handle.

The horse-headed ghost stiffened, and then fell straight to the ground.
