Liu Xing furrowed his brows, surprised to find that Chen Wenbin's SAN value was even lower than that of Gu Jun, the Occultist. Liu Xing began to suspect if Chen Wenbin was concealing his true identity.

After the SAN value check, Yasaka Mashiro's face turned grim. "What's going on? How did these black-clad n die so tragically? Chen Wenbin and I rushed over when we heard gunshots from a distance."

Watanabe Jiang, standing nearby, stepped forward to explain the situation to Yasaka Mashiro and Chen Wenbin. anwhile, Yin En and Yoh Asakura approached the bodies of the black-clad n, following the guidance of Ze Tian Yinyin. They began collecting the equipnt from the corpses, as only Yin En and Liu Xing had weapons among the players present.

Given the current situation, Liu Xing was certain that more battles would unfold. If they faced humans, it would likely be a scene of knives and guns, or they might encounter mythical creatures. Therefore, it was crucial to carry weapons.

Searching the bodies would also help identify the specific identities of the four black-clad individuals. However, Liu Xing wasn't proficient in this aspect, lacking investigative skills compared to Yin En. Additionally, as an outsider in terms of character background, Liu Xing was at a disadvantage compared to "Yoh Asakura," who was a local and had more advantages in gathering information through inspiration or education.

Feeling idle, Liu Xing approached Otonashi Takuya, who had been silently observing the situation.

Originally, Liu Xing had planned to establish a connection with Otonashi Takuya early in the day. NPCs with explosive combat abilities like Otonashi Takuya were crucial characters in this module. However, Liu Xing discovered that Otonashi Takuya had already finished his night shift and had gone ho after the morning handover. The hotel front desk didn't know Otonashi Takuya's residence, forcing Liu Xing to temporarily abandon that lead.

Now that Otonashi Takuya had unwittingly walked into their situation, Liu Xing couldn't let the opportunity pass. He smiled at Otonashi Takuya and said, "Mr. Otonashi Takuya, you also received a ssage to co here, right?"

Otonashi Takuya nodded, sowhat embarrassed. "Yes, but you can just call Otonashi."

Liu Xing nodded and continued, "Alright, I'll call you Otonashi then. Actually, I wanted to ask you yesterday, Otonashi, where did you learn your martial arts? It's impressive. I know Yin En has excellent speed and strength, easily injuring an ordinary person, but you effortlessly stopped him!"

Being praised by Liu Xing, Otonashi Takuya beca even more embarrassed. "Uh, Yin En's attack is indeed powerful, but because he was consud by anger, his attack route was too direct. I saw through it at a glance, so blocking Yin En's punch was quite simple. It wasn't as easy as you think, and my hand still hurts a bit now."

Otonashi Takuya extended his hand, revealing bruises on his palm. Liu Xing felt relieved; if Otonashi Takuya had effortlessly withstood the 8-point damage earlier, Liu Xing would have confird him as a mythical creature. After all, 8 points of damage could bring Liu Xing directly to the brink of death.

Liu Xing continued to chat with Otonashi Takuya, but couldn't extract information about his martial arts background. anwhile, they heard the sound of dice rolling, and Yin En and Yoh Asakura approached with four handguns and a combat knife.

Yasaka Mashiro and others gathered, preparing to distribute the equipnt.

Yin En reported, "Yoh Asakura and I searched these four black-clad n. We found four handguns and seven magazines. Three of the handguns were used to shoot the Killer Demon, so their magazines only have three bullets left."

Yoh Asakura, holding the combat knife, spoke, "These four black-clad n were ard with combat knives, the most suitable type for combat among katana categories. It's not easy to wield this type of weapon effectively. I've been exposed to and studied this kind of combat knife since childhood, and my skill level is just passable. I don't recomnd people without experience in this area to use combat knives as weapons. If anyone is confident, they can take one. The quality is good, but it's inconvenient without a sheath."

Liu Xing nodded, recognizing that weapons like combat knives required specific skills for assessnt, unlike ordinary items like clubs or bricks that could be assessed using brawling skills.

Yoh Asakura pointed at the hilt of one of the combat knives, saying, "Look at the mark on the hilt a willow leaf. In Ziwu City, this mark represents one thing: the Dark Willow Gang."

"Dark Willow Gang, the largest gang in Ziwu City. Why would they be after Mian Gu Lu?" Yasaka Mashiro questioned.

Gu Jun shrugged, smiling, "That's not the point. The crucial thing is how the Dark Willow Gang knew Mian Gu Lu would appear here. Given the current situation, the gang must have known Mian Gu Lu's location in advance, sending these four black-clad n to lie in wait and capture him."

Yin En nodded and pointed to the black-clad n's phones. "I checked their phones and found no ssage from King Tindalos. However, there's one from three hours ago, sent by soone nad 'Boss,' instructing them to ambush here, capturing Mian Gu Lu at all costs, even if it ant using guns."

"Damn, if Killer Demon hadn't suddenly appeared, Yin En, you and I might have been shot dead here," Liu Xing said with a grim expression.

At this mont, Mian Gu Lu, who had co down from the car unnoticed, looked curious. "Oh, were these black-clad n trying to capture ? I thought they just wanted to catch a flight, that's why I ran so fast."

Liu Xing raised an eyebrow, finally understanding why Mian Gu Lu seed so carefree while being pursued. Apparently, Mian Gu Lu was oblivious to the fact that she was being chased.
