You're an assassin, why do you focus on ranged?

"Bruno, branch chief, shall we continue forward?"

In the desolate land, the alien beasts came and went, which was very lively.

In the abandoned building, a group of people were discussing in low voices.

The leader was Bruno, and the others were senior investigators of the Night Watch.

Before Qin Chuan sent people out to investigate the strange behavior of the alien beasts, Bruno took the initiative to apply to lead the investigation.

After several thrilling battles, the team led by Bruno had lost half of its members, but also achieved good results. They found several gathering points of alien beasts.

There were a lot of alien beasts there, but strangely, they did not rush to attack the Night Watch headquarters. Instead, they gathered together in a circle, with several small humanoid alien beasts in the middle.

The alien beasts in the circle behaved respectfully. Bruno and his party even saw a lord-level alien beast surrounded by thousands of alien beast minions, but was willing to bow down to a small humanoid alien beast less than three meters long, and the alien beast lord even served as the other party's vehicle.

This strange scene stunned Bruno and others.

And Bruno was even more surprised.

He had never heard of alien beasts behaving like this.

The alien beasts were chaotic, but also pure. They were born for destruction and had very simple values.

The larger the size, the greater the power, and the higher the status.

In the past, to judge the combat effectiveness of alien beasts, you only need to look at the size.

But now it seems that the previous method is failing.

Considering that their mission is to investigate the strange behavior of alien beasts, an investigator immediately proposed to return, submit these intelligence first, and then see how the headquarters arranges.

Bruno has his own ideas.

The alien beasts came from the Black Death, and he had worked with those infected with the Black Death.

Of course, the few people who used to contact him frequently are no longer in touch, and no one knows where they died.

But it doesn't matter. There are many infected people in this vast wilderness anyway, so we can just find partners.

What Bruno cares about is the counterintuitive behavior of the alien beasts.

How do those smaller alien beasts make the lord-level alien beasts willing to submit?

Do they have some unknown power?

If I can get that kind of power, can I command the lord-level alien beasts like them?

Bruno has always had a dream, which is to replace Shadow.

But with his current strength, he can't do it at all, and he must find another way.

The strange behavior of the alien beast may be an opportunity!

Thinking of this, Bruno naturally didn't want to leave, but direct opposition was too rigid.

Bruno said thoughtfully: "It is not certain whether these strange beasts will make more moves. We need to leave people here to observe, but we also need to bring back the existing intelligence. Let's split into two teams. I will take two people to continue observing here, and the rest of us will go back first."

"How can this be possible!"

An investigator immediately objected, "Bruno, it is too dangerous for you to stay here, let us do it."

Bruno shook his head: "It is precisely because it is dangerous here that I need to command and respond in time. Okay, I am the branch director and the captain of this temporary team. Listen to me."

Under Bruno's strong insistence, the team quickly split into two groups.

Bruno continued to observe with the other two investigators, but he was thinking about where the breakthrough was.

It's a pity that the Black Death infected person who had been in contact before has lost contact, otherwise he could ask them.

Plop.

The sound of two heavy objects falling to the ground sounded in succession, and Bruno saw from the corner of his eye that the two investigators next to him were actually knocked unconscious!

"Who is it!"

Bruno turned around and shouted, only to find that a figure he had never seen before was looking at him with a somewhat indifferent look in his eyes.

And the other person's detached temperament also made Bruno have some thoughts in his mind.

The man in front of him didn't seem to be a human.

"You are scolding me."

The man opposite him startled Bruno as soon as he opened his mouth.

Could he read minds?

Just as Bruno was thinking about it, the man opposite took the initiative to introduce himself, "Don't be nervous, I have no ill intentions, I just think you have great potential, and I want to ask if you are interested in doing something for me."

If Qin Chuan was here, he would immediately recognize that this guy pretending to be a ghost was Dismartin.

Bruno didn't know Dismartin, although he vaguely guessed that the other party had an extraordinary origin, but he didn't take it too seriously.

Dismartin said slowly: "I come from the abyss, my name is the Lord of Lies and Deception, even stronger than your Lady of the Night."

When this came out, Bruno was a little angry at first.

Because in his heart, the Lady of Night is an absolute belief.

But then, Bruno had another thought.A few other ideas.

Abyss?

Lord of Lies and Deception?

I have never heard of these before.

Bruno asked calmly: "How do you prove that you are strong?"

"Good question."

Dismartin pointed to the small beast that was giving a lecture in the distance with approval, "Do you know why that beast can command the lord beast?"

Bruno naturally wanted to know this question.

At this time, the man who claimed to be the Lord of Deception mentioned it, and Bruno couldn't help but have a strange idea in his heart, and immediately asked: "If I help you, can I beat Shadow?"

Dismartin smiled, "Many people wanted to attack Shadow, but they all died. Aren't you afraid of death?"

Bruno was stunned for a moment.

The other party actually knew Shadow?

While Bruno was thinking secretly, Dismartin had already offered generous conditions, "As long as you help me, I will grant you the status of spokesperson and the power of an apostle. As for whether you can become stronger, it depends on your subsequent efforts."

This condition is undoubtedly very generous.

But Bruno knew that there is no free lunch in the world, and asked calmly: "Then what is the price."

"It's easy to talk to smart people." Dismartin smiled, waved his hand and condensed a parchment scroll, bewitching, "As long as you sign it, the power will be at your fingertips. How about it, isn't it simple? As for the price, it's just a little bit of freedom, it won't matter."

Bruno always felt that something was wrong.

Dismartin continued to add, "I already know the situation in the Evernight Continent. This place is about to become a place of right and wrong, and all parties are choosing their own spokespersons. I can tell you responsibly that the future battles will be very cruel. If you don't have enough strength, you will die silently, and no one will even notice that you are dead."

"For example, the shadow you want to defeat is actually the spokesperson of a god."

"Sign it, sign your name, and embrace the supreme power."

Dismartin's words gradually broke Bruno's psychological defenses.

If Qin Chuan were here, he would definitely sneer.

Fooling, and then fooling.
