The Competition's Dark Secret
After crossing the street and turning a corner, Luo Jun completely lost track of the woman.
Medicine King Valley Master's birthday is approaching, and Ten Thousand Medicines Market Town has already been crowded with people. The streets are crowded with pedestrians. The woman shuttles among them, and then disappears completely, even Luo Jun's perception cannot lock it.
Not a breath left...
Luo Jun frowned, it didn't look like he simply escaped, but more like he disappeared. The other party probably used some kind of concealment method, as if he disappeared out of thin air.
But in this way, it reminded Luo Jun.
He has not been in [Martial World] for a long time. Most of his acquaintances are in the team. There should be very few people who can make him feel familiar and have such abilities... In particular, this method of concealment is not like [Martial World]'s native Cultivation Method, but more like the effect achieved by using some kind of noble phantom.
Thinking in this direction, Luo Jun immediately confirmed the source of that familiar feeling!
That Polluter of Yunzhou City!
That's right! Although the appearance and figure are completely different, the vaguely familiar feeling, when you recall it carefully, is the Polluter who pretended to be the bride and killed Great Shaman!
This also reminded Luo Jun of what Polluter mentioned before, the smell!
Even if I disguise myself as Imposter Mask, my true face is still revealed... Is this how it feels?
Compared with this, Luo Jun is more concerned about, what is this Polluter doing here at Ten Thousand Medicines Market Town? Is he also here to attend Valley Master's birthday? Does Polluter have such leisurely intentions? Or is there some conspiracy?
Thinking of this, Luo Jun went to the roadside and broke some branches, and played a dice in his mind.
"Point to the direction of Polluter in the town!"
"Ding, Event Difficulty 100 points, Final Points 58+5 points, Event Failed!"
"That's probably it. I can't tell you exactly how many households and shops there are, but I will definitely recognize them when I go there."
"Fall to where Polluter is!"
"Ding, Event Difficulty 99 points, Final Points 13+5 points, Event Failed..."
Luo Jun broke another branch, quietly came to the open space under the tree, and called out the dice again.
It's not that the shopkeeper's hands are shaking, this area is really not big. There is a lush old tree in the middle of the open space. Several children are enjoying the shade and playing under the tree. There are only a dozen houses in the surrounding area.
This time, the dice finally turned.
In order to prevent the copper plate from falling out of the map, Luo Jun deliberately placed the map in the corner and used his body to block the surrounding area to ensure that it could not be thrown out.
"Hey Young Hero, our small town has only a few vertical and horizontal streets. Everyone knows how to walk, but who can draw a map..."
"Falled to the approximate block where Polluter is located."
Not clear?
Luo Jun thought about it for a while, maybe the map was not very accurate, and the length-to-width ratio was random, making it difficult to locate accurately.
Double Insurance only managed to throw 13 points with the blessing. Luo Jun complained about his big black face. Luo Jun keenly discovered that the difficulty was 99 instead of 96. This shows that the area of this block is much smaller than normal, at least that's how it is drawn on the map...
Instead of looking for directions like this, Luo Jun has a new idea in mind!
"The direction of this matter is unclear and cannot be determined."
The determination is triggered, which means that there is indeed Polluter in the city, but it should be relatively far away from him, so it is very difficult to determine the precise location.
"That's no problem..." The shopkeeper took out a pen and paper and simply drew a few streets, divided Ten Thousand Medicines Market Town into several areas, and marked several iconic locations.
Luo Jun compared it and found that the matching location was across the street behind the inn.
Luo Jun changed the wording. Ten Thousand Medicines Market Town has three streets from north to south and four roads from east to west. Although they are not completely horizontal and vertical, they roughly divide the town into twenty areas. It should not be difficult to determine which area Polluter is in.
It happened that the arena was not far from the inn where he was staying, so he quickly returned to the inn, found the shopkeeper, and expressed that he wanted a map of the town.
"That's about it." Luo Jun thanked him, took the map back to the house, and took out a copper plate.
Luo Jun rolled his eyes. "Then give me a piece of paper and a pen and draw one for me."
Saved Dice Opportunity, Luo Jun walked out of the inn, took Imposter Mask with him, transformed into the popular face of a homeless man, came to that block, found a high wall, climbed up, and looked around from a high place.
"Point to the house where Polluter is located."
"Event Difficulty 93 points, Final Points 89+5 points, Event Success!"
Finally succeeded once! Luo Jun threw the branch, bounced it on the ground a few times, and finally pointed to an inconspicuous house.
Are you here...
According to the last experience, the woman's perception was extremely sharp. She could see through her true identity even though she was wearing Invisibility Talisman and Great Shaman's mask. So now, she must have noticed that she was being followed.
Thinking of this, Luo Jun didn't even try to hide it. He just walked up and pushed the door open as if he were entering his own home.
"You're here?"
In the inconspicuous small room, there was sitting a middle-aged woman with a sallow complexion and simple clothes. However, looking at her expression, there was an indescribable charm and shrewdness.
Luo Jun didn't say anything, and looked around. There was a small courtyard, three rooms, a living room with an open door, a kitchen on one side, and a bedroom on the other side. In the kitchen, you could see several pairs of bowls and chopsticks stacked together. In the yard, you could also see clothes hanging to dry, some large and some small, male and female. It should be a residence for a family of three.
"Where is the owner of this house?"
Hearing Luo Jun ask this, the woman pouted. "It's so easy to find someone, but you ask someone else first, how heartless."
"Killed by you?" Luo Jun continued to ask.
"Want to know?" The woman smiled and said, "Tell me first how you found this place, and then I'll tell you!"
Luo Jun looked at her and nodded. "It seems she is still alive."
"People who are too smart are boring!" The woman snorted slightly dissatisfied, "Why do you come to me? Are you going to clean up Polluter?"
"I'm not that pedantic." Luo Jun pulled a chair and sat down casually. "What happened last time, I don't think you are a bad person. But we have different positions after all, so just in case, I still want to ask, what are you doing here Medicine King Valley?"
"Guess?" the woman said with a smile, "I'll tell you if I guess it right."
"Don't do this." Luo Jun snorted coldly, "This rhetoric has been used once, and it's no longer new."
As he said that, he passed a dice in his mind to find out the truth.
"Ding, Event Difficulty 93 points, Final Points 100+5 points, Event Success!"
It really turned out that the roll was full of points, but looking at the difficulty of 93 points, this woman was still very defensive.
"Tell me, why are you here? As long as you don't threaten Hundred Rivers Sect, I won't pursue too much."
"Don't pursue it?" The woman smiled, "Do you think you have the ability to pursue me? Come here alone, are you not afraid that I will eat you?"
Luo Jun looked into her eyes. "Since I dare to come, I must be prepared! If you want to eat me, you can try to see if it will hurt your teeth!"
The woman and Luo Jun looked at each other for several seconds, and there was no trace of panic or fear in his eyes.
Her Insight Faction practice is very deep, Perception Ability is different from ordinary people, she can see a lot of information that others cannot see, but she has never been able to see the depth of the man in front of her.
Do you think he is strong, right? There is no sign of Gang Qi on his body; do you think he is weak, right? But facing Polluter like herself, he can still be calm and calm... As for the strength of his realm and vitality, there seems to be some kind of treasure on him that is interfering with her senses.
That's right, the woman's Insight Technique can even penetrate the human body. Even if the opponent hides his aura, she can also see the opponent's realm, Root Bone, aura and other information based on the movement of his vitality. But this man is different. At a glance, his body is full of Blur. She has never seen such a difficult target.
This is why Luo Jun attracted her attention the first time they met.
As the saying goes, you are not afraid of your opponent being strong, but you are afraid that your opponent cannot see through it. The woman frowned and finally compromised.
"I said, I came here for Spirit Gathering Gu, do you believe it?"
"Spirit Gathering Gu?" Luo Jun frowned. "I believe it, but with your ability, you can get a spot by participating in the competition, right?"
"Then can you Hundred Rivers Sect let me go?" The woman smiled, "Especially the girl with the golden light next to you last time, she was very fierce!"
Luo Jun looked into the woman's eyes and did not continue the topic, "Even Polluter like you is attracted. Is this Spirit Gathering Gu really so powerful?"
"Why, you want it too?" The woman smiled and pointed her cheek with her finger, "This means that at least you are not a Peak..."
Seeing that she didn't answer directly, Luo Jun realized that the judgment range of the dice had been exceeded, so he used it again, this time to ask Spirit Gathering Gu about its true effect!
"Ding, Event Difficulty 55 points, Final Points 60+5 points, Event Success!"
The difficulty is only about half, indicating that this issue is not very important to women.
"Both each other..." Luo Jun said with a smile, "Why else would you come here for this thing? This thing really accelerates people's cultivation?"
"It's more powerful than you think!" The woman said with a smile, "At least in terms of improving your cultivation, it's better than epic... even Legendary-grade's consumables!"
Is it really that strong? Luo Jun was surprised and continued to ask, "What about the side effects?"
"Side effects?" The woman thought for a moment, "Does it count as having more stringent completion conditions?"
"In other words, there is no harm to the user himself?"
"At least I haven't heard of it." The woman spread her hands.
Luo Jun was horrified. He took a trick when judging the incident. Instead of asking the truth, he judged and asked Spirit Gathering Gu the true effect.
This is because truth and lies are subjective. As long as a woman thinks she is not lying, it is the truth. As for whether the information she has is accurate, it is hard to say. But when asked about the true effect of Spirit Gathering Gu, this is objective. If the woman does not know, then the judgment will be Mandatory Event (impossible). Since the judgment is successful, it means that the woman knows the true effect of this thing and will tell him the truth!
From this point of view, this Spirit Gathering Gu is simply a great invention comparable to an artifact. Isn't the whole [Martial World] about to change?
