The second set of footsteps on the stairs was much lighter. It was obvious that it wasn't a heavy class. Was it a player or an NPC in the building? Gu Fei peeked his head out.
Gu Fei poked his head out. Before the people on the second floor could see what was going on, he saw the soldier looking around for a while before he found a pillar and hid behind it. He continued to hold his sword tightly, his body like a taut bow and his ears pricked up. It was obvious that he planned to hide here and sneak a heavy blow to his opponent when he appeared.
In the end, he didn't wait for the enemy. Instead, he waited for the enemy's attack.
Gu Fei looked up and saw a flame appear in the middle of the hall. Fire Wheel from the Sky.
Damn, how bold! Gu Fei was quick to react. With the Heavenly Flaming Wheel in range, the Warrior would not be able to escape. Unfortunately for him, he would also be hit by it. Gu Fei hurriedly darted to the side and hid behind another pillar. Then the Fire Wheel fell from the sky. The Warrior couldn't dodge in time and was barbecued. When he turned his head, he saw Gu Fei.
Gu Fei's attire was much more obvious. He wore a mask and placed the number "9" in an obvious position. The Warrior was surprised. "Number 9!"
It's one of us! Gu Fei thought. Before he could greet him, the Warrior rushed towards Gu Fei excitedly, as if he had found a life-saving straw when he was drowning.
In the end, before he could even touch the straw, he had already stepped on the rising Fire Tree Thousand Layers Flames after taking a few steps out from behind the pillar he was hiding in. Gu Fei dodged the spell with a swift retreat, but he was powerless against this Warrior of unknown rank. He could only watch helplessly as the Warrior disappeared into the sea of fire.
Killing a Warrior with two spells was not something a normal Mage player could do. Gu Fei was one of them. Who else could it be?
Drifting? Strange Pupil? Or was it an NPC Mage guarding the government office?
Before he figured it out, Gu Fei decided not to act rashly. If it was a player like Drifting or Strange Pupil, Gu Fei wouldn't be afraid. He was afraid of strange NPCs like the system. It was better not to provoke them.
Gu Fei, who continued to hide behind the pillar, didn't move. The footsteps on the stairs stopped and the hall returned to silence.
Gone? Or are you looking for me? Gu Fei didn't know if the other person had noticed him. After all, the man shouted "Number 9" excitedly. He didn't know if the person on the stairs heard him or not.
Leaning close to the pillar, Gu Fei moved slowly, changing his field of vision bit by bit, but in the end, he saw nothing. Gu Fei took out an apple and threw it up the stairs.
"Pa", the apple fell on the stairs, and then bounced down the stairs, rolling down the stairs. The sound was clear and bright in the whole hall.
"Is he really gone …" Gu Fei walked out from behind the pillar and came to the staircase. He caught the apple that had rolled down and looked up. There was no one on the stairs.
He had only taken a few steps when he suddenly heard footsteps coming from the hall below. Gu Fei turned his head and flung the apple in his hand away.
"Ouch!" Although Gu Fei's apple didn't deal any damage, its accuracy wasn't inferior to any skill in the game. The person who had just arrived was hit in the head, causing him to cry out in shock. Then he realized that it was an apple that had hit him. Looking back, he saw a masked man in black jumping down the stairs and rushing towards him.
"Number 9!!" The person quickly shouted.
Gu Fei stopped in his tracks, but still maintained his distance. After all, among the nine people, Number 3 was going to be an enemy. Gu Fei didn't dare to let his guard down.
"It's me! Number 4! " The person could tell that Gu Fei was still suspicious of him. He hurriedly put on his clothes and mask, changing into his raincoat with Number 4 embroidered on it.
"So it's you …" Gu Fei smiled. He could recognize Number 4 because Number 4 talked the most. Although he didn't know who he was, after a few more words, Gu Fei could recognize his voice.
"Where are the others?" Gu Fei asked.
"After coming in, they all went to do their own tasks. I don't know either!" Number 4 said.
Number 4 was right in front of him. Number 6 couldn't be a warrior. Then the person who had just died could only be Number 3 or Number 5. However, Number 3 was a conspirator who had entered the hall without everyone knowing. He shouldn't have reacted like he saw his savior. That meant that the person who had just died was Number 5.
"Number 5 is a warrior, right?" Gu Fei confirmed with Number 4. He guessed that there weren't many people like him who wouldn't identify other people's professions.
"Yes, that's right!" Number 4 was indeed one of the dishonest people. Gu Fei didn't forget to despise him as he received the information he had provided.
"Number 5 has already died." Gu Fei said.
"Ah? How? "Number 4 was shocked." Did the person who saw things through the fog come in? "
"I don't know yet …" Gu Fei said. "It shouldn't be …" He had crouched behind the back door for more than an hour. Other than Number 3, no one else had entered from that side. If there was someone who saw things through the fog, they wouldn't go around the front yard and walk through the front door, right?
"Then who is it?" Number 4 asked.
"I don't know yet. Did you complete your task?" Gu Fei asked.
"Yes, but I don't think I can get out now." Number 4 said.
"Hmm … You see the person outside the door?" Gu Fei asked.
"I should say, other than the person outside the door, I can't see anything else." Number 4 smiled bitterly.
Gu Fei really admired people who could still maintain a sense of humor in a situation like this. Number 1, Number 7, and Number 2 were all at a loss in the face of danger. Gu Fei was almost used to their behavior, but Number 4 seemed to be slightly different.
"Do you have any ideas?" Gu Fei asked. This Number 4 still had some ideas. He seemed to be the leader of the group of nine. Gu Fei was a little curious about this at first, but after understanding the relationship between the people, he understood.
Logically speaking, the initiator of this kind of group would usually be the leader. However, the initiator of this group of nine, Number 3, had ulterior motives. In order to make it easier for him to fish in troubled waters, he couldn't possibly put himself in the position of a leader who could be noticed at any time. And the guy who was pushed to become Number 1 was already hesitant about this plan, so how could he make any decisions? As for Number Two, it was obvious that he was a fantasist who liked to read comics … Thus, Number Four couldn't help but catch up from behind and become the leader.
"I wonder if there's a secret passage in this government office that can lead us out directly?" Number 4 said.
Gu Fei immediately retracted his opinion of Number 4. It seemed like this person was also a fantasist.
Number 4 saw Gu Fei's gaze and said embarrassedly, "Actually, I've been looking for a while, but I didn't find anything. Looks like it's impossible."
Gu Fei sighed. He understood that Number 4 wasn't actually a fantasist. This was called trying anything in a desperate situation.
"We don't know where Number 6 went. Let's look for him first and think of a way together." Gu Fei said.
"The person who killed Number 5, will he come out and attack us again?" Number 4 looked around nervously.
"It's very possible!" Gu Fei was always so frank. He didn't know how to comfort others at all.
"Ah … This is still the fastest way to leave." Number 4 said.
"Hehe …" Gu Fei appreciated his playfulness. "How about I bring you to a safe place first. I'll go look for Number 6, then we can leave together."
"Oh? What safe place? "Number 4 was most interested in the word" safe "right now.
So Gu Fei brought him to the dark corner at the back door. "Wait here for a while!"
"Ah, Number 2! What a coincidence! " Number 4 exclaimed behind the door. Then, he poked half of his head out and said to Gu Fei, "Number 2 is here too."
"I know …" Gu Fei said. "You guys wait for me together!"
"Okay, okay. Come back early!" Number 4 waved at Gu Fei.
'Damn, am I looking for lost children one by one?' Gu Fei thought bitterly as he set off from the back door again.
Returning to the front hall, Gu Fei turned to the left staircase again. The person who killed Number 5 disappeared from here. Gu Fei decided to go from here to see if he could find anything … At the same time, he also wanted to visit his mission target: Giordano.
After strolling around the second floor and finding nothing, Gu Fei went straight to the third floor and went straight to Giordano's office. The scene disappointed Gu Fei. This Guard Captain didn't care about personal space at all. He hung out with a bunch of soldiers all day long. Something designed by a program really didn't have much of a life.
At this time, Gu Fei didn't have the time to sit on the sofa and wait for an opportunity. He still needed to go out and find Number 6.
He pulled the door open and was about to leave when he suddenly received a message. It was Number 2 Scissorhands. "I'm hanging up!"
"What happened?" Gu Fei was surprised.
"It's Number 4."
"Number 4?" Gu Fei didn't understand.
"Hmm … After chatting for a while, he suddenly asked me if I wanted to make a bet." Scissorhands said.
"A bet?"
"He asked me to bet with him on who could leave the government office first. The bet was one hundred gold coins …" Scissorhands said.
"…"
"I didn't think too much about it. I just casually agreed. So, he immediately gave me one hundred gold coins and said I won. When I realized it …"
"This person … Is there something wrong with him?" Gu Fei was shocked. He finally understood what it meant by there were all kinds of strange things in the world.
"Sigh …" Scissorhands said.
"Sorry, it's my fault …" Gu Fei's mind flashed with the image of him bringing the Big Bad Wolf into Little Red Riding Hood's bedroom.
"It's okay. You have to be careful. Maybe he'll play some tricks with you. "Little Red Riding Hood, oh no, Scissorhands said.
"I will. I'll definitely help you get the mission item out!" Gu Fei said.
There was one less player in the government office.
