Year
Li Shuyi left for Fukuoka on the same day.
Bai Xiaowen stayed in the Kusanagi Manor. He seemed to have become a tourist, wandering around the ancient pavilions of the Kusanagi Clan with great interest, occasionally chatting with the senior guards and senior retainers of the clan.
Of course, with Bai Xiaowen's current reputation, it was still not enough for him to enter the Kusanagi Clan's forbidden training ground, the Kirishima Volcano Cave. He could only regretfully stop, then returned to his house and began to wait.
The fourth day in the world of the King of Fighters.
The Kusanagi Clan's gatekeeper came to Bai Xiaowen, saying that he received a public call from Li Shuyi, asking him to hurry to Fukuoka.
Bai Xiaowen asked Kusanagi Aoki for a leave and left the Kusanagi Manor.
…
Kirishima Volcano Cave.
Steam rose. Kusanagi Chai Zhou and Kusanagi Aoki each sat cross-legged on a futon, pressing their hands on the ground, as if they were in a sauna … Their foreheads and faces were sweaty.
"Uncle, Shirai-kun left after receiving a call from his friend." Kusanagi Aoki said.
"Did Shirai-kun do anything suspicious these days?" Kusanagi Chai Zhou asked faintly.
"At first, he expressed his curiosity about the manor and toured around it, saying that the scenery was very good. When his friend came back, he must take his friend for a good tour. Since then, he has been in the house and hasn't come out. "
Kusanagi Chai Zhou nodded slightly, "It seems that there is nothing suspicious. However, we must be vigilant. After all, he is a Hua Xia, and we don't know his background. "
Kusanagi Aoki nodded heavily, "Yes!"
"Now that he is gone, it is also a good thing. We can purify this crystal without worry."
Kusanagi Chai Zhou looked at the dim crystal suspended in the magma in front of him and sighed, "The power of Orochi is actually a very pure power. As long as the negative energy in it is expelled, it can be absorbed by us. However, it is a bit troublesome to purify it. After all, we are not Kagura. "
Kusanagi Aoki said, "Uncle, we just need to put in a little more effort. I think we should be able to purify it before returning from Kyoto."
Kusanagi Chai Zhou nodded slightly.
…
Hokucho, Fukuoka City.
At the agreed bus stop, Bai Xiaowen met Li Shuyi.
"How's the situation?" Bai Xiaowen asked.
Li Shuyi gave a simple statement: "More than 50% of Hokucho's territory has fallen into the hands of the Matsuzaki Society. The two hunters from the Matsuzaki Gumi didn't turn over, plus the remaining two generals of the Matsuzaki Gumi, the Morioka Gumi couldn't resist at all … Morioka Masao almost committed seppuku, but he was stopped by Morioka Gumi's leader, Morioka Yoshihito. "
Bai Xiaowen nodded. "It's about time. Let's go. "
After saying that, Bai Xiaowen put on a wide-brimmed black top hat and wrapped himself in a large windbreaker. Li Shuyi also changed his clothes slightly and walked towards the headquarters of Morioka-gumi.
After entering the bar, the two of them familiarly went straight to the second floor. However, at the top of the stairs, they met a familiar man wearing a suit and sunglasses … Yoshihisa Yoshihisa.
"Yoshihisa, do you remember me?" Under the dim halo of the bar, Bai Xiaowen pressed his right hand on his wide-brimmed hat and raised it slightly.
"You are … Shiro-sama?"
Yoshihisa Yoshihisa said in surprise.
"Take me to see your leader, or Ruotou." Bai Xiaowen said directly.
Yoshihisa Yoshihisa's face showed a hint of embarrassment. "The two leaders are receiving guests …"
"Oh? What kind of guests are more important than me? "Bai Xiaowen narrowed his eyes." Then I have to see them. "
Bai Xiaowen stepped upstairs. Yoshihisa Yoshihisa exclaimed in a low voice behind him. He wanted to stop him but didn't dare. He could only trot up with a bitter face, intending to report.
Bai Xiaowen rushed ahead of him and arrived at the door of the reception room. Li Shuyi pressed the hilt of his sword and gave a threatening look. Yoshihisa Yoshihisa didn't dare to speak.
Bai Xiaowen focused his mind and listened carefully to the conversation inside the reception room.
Morioka Masao's voice was familiar, but it sounded a little haggard. "Mr. Bigg, Mr. Vess, the price you are asking is too high. We can't afford it."
A man's voice said, "To tell you the truth, the Matsuzaki Society will launch an attack tonight to drive all of you out of Hokucho. Without the territory, where can you escape to? "
Another man's voice echoed.
"That's right. It's not just the Morioka-gumi's end now. All of you are going to meet God … The only people who can save you are the two of us! We have gained the trust of the Matsuzaki Society. As long as we work together and kill one of the generals, the remaining Matsuzaki Society general will be helpless. He won't be a match for us. "
There was a moment of silence.
The first man's voice said, "Are your brains full of shit? Do you still need to hesitate on this question? As long as we help you destroy the Matsuzaki Society, the entire Fukuoka territory will be yours. Are you afraid that you won't be able to pay us? "
Bai Xiaowen smiled and said to Li Shuyi, "It seems that your information is a little outdated."
Li Shuyi pursed his lips. "How would I know? They just came to negotiate when I went to pick you up … What should we do now?"
Bai Xiaowen smiled. "What should we do? Clear the place, of course. "
Bang!
The door of the reception room was kicked open by Bai Xiaowen.
"Who is it?"
An angry roar rang out, and the four people who were sitting all stood up.
The two people in the main seats were Morioka Masao and the team leader Morioka Yoshihito. The two hunters opposite them were white and black. The white man was tall and wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses, while the black man was thinner.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Whoosh! Four skeleton sword-wielders, a shadow assassin, and a skeleton mage appeared at the same time!
Now, the skeleton sword-wielders had risen to level 3, while Bai Xiaowen's mental power had increased to 31 points. After leveling up, the skeleton sword-wielders' appearance had changed greatly. Their bones had become thicker, and their leather armor had been decorated with fine iron pieces. The iron sword in their right hand shone with a cold light, while the left hand held a thicker iron shield, which was one level stronger than before.
The attributes of the level 3 skeleton sword-wielders, under the mental power and the Necromancer profession's bonuses, had become: 13 points in strength, 12 points in physique! Although 8 points in agility was somewhat low, and 3 points in spirit was even more unsightly, the total of 36 points was enough to match a level 3 standard profession Awakened.
The shadow assassin had also risen to level 3. Its face had a vague outline of a woman's face, and its figure was slender and graceful. Its degree of solidification had reached a level close to that of a real person. It was no longer covered in black fog and had a vague appearance.
In comparison, the shadow assassin's attributes had improved even more. Its current attributes had reached a high of 49 points, and its agility was as high as 21 points!
It must be known that the shadow assassin still had an exclusive enhancement option in the third layer of the Black Soul Stone's Enhancement Scroll. Once it was activated, all attributes would increase by 3 points, and its total attributes would exceed 60 points! This was a number that many Awakened Elites of the same level could not achieve.
The last skeleton mage to appear was a skeleton monster wrapped in a black robe. Its head was covered with a tattered cloak, and only the ghostly fire in its empty eye sockets could be seen. It was also a level 3 Elite with a total of 52 points in attributes. Its main attribute was mental power, and it only had one active skill: Lightning Throw. The other two skill columns were passive skills.
There was no need to mention the racial passive skill "Hollow Skeleton." The other passive skill was called "Lightning Boost." It increased lightning damage by 15%.
As for "Lightning Throw," it was a small skill that had a cast time of 1.5 seconds, a cooldown of 10 seconds, and only consumed 1 point of mental power. Clearly, this was the skeleton mage's only attack method. As long as it was given space to attack, the damage it could deal was considerable. Magic damage, to a certain extent, could make up for the team's shortcomings.
The six summoned creatures had gained the upper hand the moment they appeared, surrounding the two Awakened ones and the four people in the reception room.
Bai Xiaowen took off his wide-brimmed hat and windbreaker. He smiled slightly and waved at Morioka Masao.
