Opening Gunfire
"Bang bang bang..."
The moment Feng Xue stepped out the door, a series of gunshots rang in his ears. He then saw a group of heavily armed foreigners firing at Wumen, who had just stepped out the door.
Upon seeing this scene, Feng Xue immediately abandoned the idea of closing the cardboard box. After all, the cardboard box only reduced its presence and did not possess the attributes of being [sturdy] or [unhit].
If exposed to a hail of bullets, even if the cardboard box could withstand the impact, it might still be blown away. Once trapped inside, he wouldn't be able to move, which would be practically suicidal.
Taking advantage of the low-profile effect of the Assassin Set, Feng Xue quickly scanned his surroundings. Although he didn't know why, the Assassin's Tag and his Perceptive ability stopped responding the moment he stepped out the door, he still began to act according to his pre-planned strategy.
Ambushed by a large number of enemies with widespread firepower, escape is impossible. There are currently no fatalities, likely from non-lethal bullets... but there are still unshots on the outer perimeter...
Contingency Plan Two: There's no escaping it!
Having made his judgment, Feng Xue did not hesitate and immediately took out a card from his Storage Bag. As soon as he thought of using it, the card emitted Golden Light, and then a not-too-large box with many Ancient Egypt -style patterns, seemingly made of pure gold, appeared in front of him.
Name: Phantom Object - Sealed Golden Cabinet
Elements: [Storage], [Space], [Items], [Magic]
Description: Golden Cabinet capable of transferring items placed inside to Different Dimension; it can only be recalled when its owner returns to the sealed place.
Note: Don't bother looking, there are no Millennium Puzzles inside.
Almost at her fastest speed ever, Feng Xue took off the Storage Bag from her waist and threw it inside, followed by the Disassembly Madonna and the Blade of Suffocation. Then she quickly took off the Boots of Silence and stuffed them in along with the cardboard box.
As he prepared to continue undressing, intense pain exploded throughout his body.
Although the dull pain was not fatal, the enormous impact still caused his body to sway.
Abandoning her plan to take off her clothes, Feng Xue gave the final command to the Golden Cabinet. As the golden cabinet vanished into nothingness, several more rubber bullets struck him.
In the western Saint Lotan City, Colombia, inside a little-known private prison, a man sat quietly in an office chair. His expression seemed calm, but his constantly tapping toes proved that he was not at peace.
Suddenly, there was a rapid knock on the office door. He instinctively wanted to get up, but forcibly suppressed his emotions, sat back down in his executive chair, and then said in as calm a tone as possible:
Come in.
"Click..."
The door, adorned with exquisite solid wood grain, was pushed open, and a middle-aged man who appeared to be in his forties, dressed in a suit, walked in. Seeing the newcomer, the man in the executive chair felt a slight sense of relief, waited a few seconds, and then spoke:
"How's the situation?"
"Boss, the Trojan Horse Plan is progressing very smoothly! Dr. Fran's conjecture was correct!" The middle-aged man who pushed open the door was clearly also excited; he waved his arms vigorously and said:
"We captured over thirty 'Wandering Souls' this time and seized more than ten Magical Item. If we kill them all, we might be able to get a few more!"
"Killing it directly would be too wasteful. Let's hand it over to Fran and let him make good use of it. Who knows, he might be able to develop a technology to amplify the falling of Magical Item?" After receiving confirmation that the plan was going smoothly, the man in the boss's chair sounded much more cheerful.
"Okay, I'll arrange it right away." The middle-aged man immediately turned and left. Only after the Room Door did the man in the boss's chair finally stop suppressing his excitement, waving his arms vigorously but making no sound.
He has already invested a lot of money in this plan, but it doesn't matter. This time alone, he can earn back all his investment with interest!
A small time bomb and a Black Devil criminal nobody cared about could be exchanged for over a dozen priceless Magical Item —this deal was incredibly profitable!
He felt that the wisest decision he had ever made was taking Fran in...
On the streets of Saint Lotan City, the piercing sirens of police blared incessantly, disturbing the numerous residents. However, no one seemed bothered by the noise; after all, in this chaotic city, they couldn't sleep well without a few gunshots and sirens every day.
After all, nobody wants to hear these sounds in the middle of the night.
However, what no one knew was that these prison wagons were not carrying humans, but rather a series of Weird Tale with humanoid forms.
This Weird Tale was stripped naked and sat in the prison van, seemingly using the number of purplish-blue spots on their bodies to prove how many rubber bullets they had taken.
"Damn it!" Feng Xue was completely exasperated by the jumble of incomprehensible language around him. At that moment, he truly realized just how important the Infinite City's characteristic of "everyone being able to understand each other" really was.
Even if he wanted to team up with someone to escape now, no one would understand him!
"Luckily, I was cautious enough, so at least there's still some hope of turning things around." Feng Xue sighed, crossed her legs to avoid feeling too embarrassed by the exposure of the "Man's Black Ball," and glanced sideways at the prison van, trying to figure out where she was.
The majority of people here are white, but you can occasionally see one or two black people outside the window. The shop signs on the roadside are all alphabetical. Although Feng Xue's English is not very good, she still managed to find words such as "shop," "shoes," and "clothes."
"Fortunately, it's mostly in English here. Unfortunately, my English isn't very good."
Feng Xue sighed and casually tossed the salt that had appeared in her hand under the seat. Who knew if the people outside would suspect she had some kind of spatial ability if they saw this? But no matter what, she had to control her habit of complaining. Otherwise, it would be too absurd to get shot again because of a bag of salt.
The prison van, sirens blaring, arrived at a building. From the words on the signboard at the main entrance, Feng Xue could barely make out the meaning of "prison," which left him somewhat bewildered. Did this world already have a perfect strategy to counter the Infinite City? Were any Weird Tale dared to transmigrate there immediately captured and sent to prison for labor reform?
However, he soon discovered that this was not the case. After entering the prison, the prison van did not take them for inspection or throw them directly into the prison as in the movies. Instead, it drove all the way to the underground parking garage and then entered a somewhat dark area through a roller shutter door.
Although she didn't know exactly where this place was, just from the fact that it looked like a "secret base of an evil organization," Feng Xue instinctively felt that something was wrong.
"I hope the English pronunciation in this world is the same as where I am..."
