Chapter 985 Living People in the Land of the Dead (Two in One, Please Subscribe!!!)
Under Lu Mingfei's repeated insistence, Eri followed Nono and Finger and left. Looking at Eri's back, Lu Mingfei was not too worried about her.
After all, Eri's fighting power is there. Even in Nibelungen, there should be nothing that can threaten her except Odin himself, and Nono and Finger are also following. Both of them have very good fighting experience.
In this way, the weakest is actually the only one left alone.
Lu Mingfei rolled down the window and looked at the magnificent giant clock on the clock building in the distance. The pendulum pointed to the position of eleven twenty-one and was still moving slowly.
Noon? Or early morning? Lu Mingfei shook his head. The time didn't match anyway. It seemed that this was indeed Nibelungen, and the time flow rate was not exactly the same as in the real world.
"Let's see where the car is damaged first. I hope the differential and fuel tank are okay." Lu Mingfei whispered, opened the door, and got out of the car.
Just now, the water tank, fuel gauge, and brake system all had fault lights on. Maybe it was because the car was driving too fast, and the safety system of the car body detected an abnormality. It may also be that when breaking through the encirclement of Deadpool just now, the water tank, fuel tank, and differential were damaged. This is the worst case. Lu Mingfei knows basic car inspections, but he is not proficient in car repairs, and there are no tools here. Unless he drives the car to find another auto repair shop, it will take at least until this evening to repair these important parts.
Using the jack in the trunk to prop up the car, Lu Mingfei went under the car body to check the differential, and then lifted the front hood and fuel tank cap to check the water tank and fuel tank... Fortunately, these most important parts are not seriously damaged. However, the bumper, anti-collision beam, and car body roof have a lot of damage, and the tires are severely worn. As long as there is enough oil, there will be no problem driving a few hundred kilometers. However, the car is so damaged that its value must be greatly reduced compared to when Master Shao handed it to them.
"The next step is to refuel. I hope the oil here can still be used." Lu Mingfei pulled out the oil gun from the oil filling machine. He first spit a puddle on the ground, and the transparent yellowish gasoline evaporated quickly.
Lu Mingfei pinched a small bunch with his fingers and put it to the tip of his nose to smell it. The smell of gasoline mixed with the pungent smell of alcohol hit him. It was indeed ethanol gasoline, and it was probably not expired.
Lu Mingfei breathed a sigh of relief. He opened the fuel tank cap of the Porsche, inserted the oil gun accurately into the empty port, and set the oil volume to the highest number.
When the gasoline was poured into the mailbox, Lu Mingfei stared at the ground under the chassis and the fuel gauge of the car. When the tank was filled with fresh ethanol gasoline and the oil gun automatically jumped out, Lu Mingfei restarted the Porsche. Seeing the fuel tank fault light return to normal, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
When he pulled the oil gun out of the tank and put it back into the machine, a line of numbers popped up on the machine, followed by a few beeps, which meant that the customer had to pay for the oil. But this was in Nibelungen, there was no one at the toll booth, and Lu Mingfei didn't have any money on him, so it was impossible to pay.
However, Lu Mingfei still subconsciously glanced at the amount of the charge, and it was this quick glance that made him completely stunned.
"Two hundred and thirty-one dollars and fifty-two cents..." Lu Mingfei silently read out the numbers on the oil gun machine, which was the amount he needed to pay for refueling.
I forgot how long it had been, in fact, since Lu Mingfei could drive, he had never seen a number below four hundred to fill up a tank of oil. I remember that after he went to high school, his uncle complained every week about the desperate rise in oil prices. A month's travel expenses were more expensive than food expenses. Fortunately, his BMW was a small-displacement BMW. If he changed to a large-displacement sports car or off-road vehicle, he would have to spend a quarter of his monthly salary on it!
The recent price of No. 95 gasoline is about eight yuan. Lu Mingfei hasn't paid attention to this for a long time, but according to the price of international crude oil, the domestic oil price should be this number, not much different.
Lu Mingfei saw on the machine that he had just filled up about 60 liters of gas. If it is based on the current oil price, the cost of No. 95 gasoline should be around 480 yuan. It is normal for a sports car to cost more than 500 yuan per tank of gasoline. No. 98 will be more expensive. No. 92 and diesel will be cheaper, but the price is limited.
In short, it is definitely not more than 230 yuan!
If it is divided like this, the unit price of one liter of oil is... Lu Mingfei glanced at the sign next to the oil gun machine.
"Today's oil prices: No. 90 gasoline: 3.55 yuan/liter (original price 3.65 yuan/liter), No. 93 gasoline: 3.75 yuan/liter (original price 3.90 yuan/liter), No. 95 gasoline: 3.85 yuan/liter (original price 4.00 yuan/liter), No. 97 gasoline: 3.95 yuan/liter (original price 4.10 yuan/liter). The above prices do not include oil detergents. If the price of detergents is included, each variety needs to add 0.07 yuan/liter."
"No. 93 gasoline... No. 97 gasoline... Is the oil price still discounted?" Lu Mingfei murmured in a low voice, asking a question that no one had thought about since they came to Nibelung, "Here... what year is it?"
"Boom!"
A heavy sound sounded, very close, and the huge sound startled Lu Mingfei. He looked up in the direction of the sound and wanted to see that it was the huge clock on the clock building, swinging to the twelve o'clock position.
The spherical pendulum swung and struck the bronze bell wall.
A chill spread quickly from Lu Mingfei's back to Tianling Gai. He just refueled. He didn't know if it took five minutes. Just now he saw that the clock was still pointing to eleven twenty-one. Why is it already twelve o'clock so soon?
Nearly forty minutes have passed in a blink of an eye?
If the clock is not broken, then two guesses have been confirmed... The first is that the sound they just heard on the elevated line is indeed real, and it was the ringing of this huge bell. The second guess is that Nibo The flow rate of time in Dragon Root is indeed different from that in the outside world. Either their senses are affected, or Odinger does have the ability to control time!
Lu Mingfei would think about the last time he heard the bell. The big clock in Times Square would only ring on time every time. So the last time the bell rang was "eleven o'clock" exactly... But according to this There was nothing wrong with it. It took about twenty minutes from the time they entered the city to the time they found the gas station. But why did the flow of time suddenly change?
Before Lu Mingfei could think about it, a dangerous aura enveloped him. It felt like he was locked in the eyes of a beast. This beast was hiding in the dark, hiding its figure, with a pair of gray eyes. Locking you tightly, until the moment you reveal a flaw, it will emerge from the darkness and take your life.
Lu Mingfei made a judgment immediately when someone was around. Even though he didn't see the person's shadow or hear any sound, he still had this feeling. With his rich combat experience, Lu Mingfei smelled it. The killing intent was coming towards him.
A black figure fell from the sky, and Lu Mingfei realized that there had been someone hiding on the roof of the gas station above him... I don't know if he can be called a human, but this guy's movements were too fast and too sudden. Mingfei couldn't see his face clearly for a while.
The white arc of light grazed Lu Mingfei's throat. If Lu Mingfei hadn't been acutely aware of danger, he would have been seriously injured in this sneak attack.
It has to be said that this guy is really calm. From the very beginning, before Lu Mingfei and the others arrived at the gas station, he had been squatting here until Eriyi and the others left. Lu Mingfei was alone. Only then did he appear and deliver a fatal blow to Lu Mingfei.
Such behavior is not like what Deadpool without self-awareness can do. Those with scheming, patience and careful battle plans must be advanced intelligent creatures.
"Knife?" Lu Mingfei quickly distanced himself from the guy, and he caught a glimpse of something bright out of the corner of his eye.
It was a knife, a dagger used by humans, held tightly by a hand hidden in the sleeve. Immediately, Lu Mingfei looked up. It was a figure shrouded in a black cloak. It was basically a figure. The size of an adult man, this guy wears a black mask on his face, with a pointed beak and ink-stained feathers, shaped like a crow's head screaming in terror. This guy's true face is hidden under the skull mask.
This is definitely a person, a real person. Lu Mingfei is very sure. His guess is correct. The person who attacked him is not Deadpool, but a wise person. He can feel the life from the other person's body. This person is still alive.
There is a high probability that this guy is one of Odin's capable subordinates. Lu Mingfei always felt that he had seen this mask somewhere.
"Shilan Middle School Foundation, those shareholders?" Lu Mingfei suddenly remembered those guys he saw in the conference room of Shilan Middle School Foundation Building.
That night, those guys were all wearing strange masks, and they were all characters from Nordic mythology. At that time, Lu Mingfei thought those guys were helpers that Su Enxi had found for him on the hunter website, but they found out later They were arranged by Odin, and those guys were all Odin's subordinates.
The guy in front of him reminded Lu Mingfei of those guys that night. They all looked alive, but not exactly the same... Lu Mingfei couldn't tell the specific differences, but at least he had the impression that he didn't see them that night. A mask that looks like a crow.
"Where did this guy come from?" Lu Mingfei murmured in a low voice, "Did he always stay in the Nibelungs? Can a living person stay in the Nibelungs forever?"
But the figure in the black cloak obviously did not answer Lu Mingfei's intention. Under the crow mask, a pair of golden pupils stared at Lu Mingfei's figure. The dagger in his hand indicated the direction of the knife. Look at how he was holding the knife. From his posture, Lu Mingfei could tell that he was definitely a veteran with swords and a warrior with rich tactics. In terms of combat experience alone, Lu Mingfei felt that the opponent would not be inferior to him.
Lu Mingfei also had a knife, an alchemy short knife that he took from Chu Tianjiao's cabin. The knife was pinned behind Lu Mingfei's waist. Lu Mingfei leaned against the Porsche and stared at the figure in the crow mask. , calmly stretched his hand behind him, and silently held the knife in his hand.
But in the process of this action, the opponent actually moved. The guy quickly rushed towards the direction of Lu Mingfei, like a pecking crow. The black cloak was like huge wings, with a sharp dagger hidden in it. The sword light was flying, as messy as a rain curtain.
Dangerous arcs surrounded Lu Mingfei in all directions, giving Lu Mingfei no chance to draw his sword. Fortunately, Lu Mingfei was able to avoid it every time, and the dancing sword light shone on the paint of the Porsche. The messy marks left were like an abstract painting. The scraping of the blade against the aluminum alloy car cover made a harsh sound, which made Lu Mingfei feel a pain in his heart.
A luxury car worth millions, a limited edition with great collection value, and someone else borrowed it from them. It was ruined like this in a short time. It felt like the Japanese suddenly broke into the house when he just got married.
Who can bear this kind of aggrieved feeling!
The knife light fell from top to bottom, and Lu Mingfei turned around to avoid the attack, but then, a crisp "sizzle" sound made his eyelids tremble. Looking back, Lu Mingfei saw the blade of the opponent's dagger pierced the front hood of the Porsche... It was pierced very deep, and I don't know if it hurt the engine.
Lu Mingfei could still tolerate it if it only damaged the appearance of the car, but if the engine of the car was damaged, wouldn't it be equivalent to cutting off their retreat? Then what would they rely on to escape when they encountered danger in Nibelungen?
"Are you too arrogant!" Lu Mingfei couldn't bear it at all.
He stepped forward angrily and kicked the man hard on the waist. Lu Mingfei heard a dull sound of pain. He rolled up the short knife, and the sound of the blade tearing the air was extremely sharp.
The body of the crow mask kept retreating, and Lu Mingfei cut a huge gap in his black cloak. Bright red blood flowed from his arm. He hit the weighing column of the gas station hard, making a huge muffled sound.
Lu Mingfei's kick was really angry. He was really a little angry. He damaged their car when he couldn't hit them. This kind of treatment was really rogue!
Although Lu Mingfei didn't want to really kill the other party in a face-to-face encounter, this man's physical fitness and combat experience still exceeded Lu Mingfei's imagination... After such a heavy kick, he was still able to stand. This guy's retreat just now was also quite decisive, otherwise Lu Mingfei's knife would not only cut a big hole in his arm, but also cut off half of his face!
Under the black crow mask, a pair of golden eyes stared at Lu Mingfei, with a sinister look. After suffering a great loss at the hands of Lu Mingfei, the other party seemed to be re-evaluating the gap in hard power between him and Lu Mingfei.
"I can kill you, but I didn't do it. I believe you can also notice that I am not bragging." Lu Mingfei tried to communicate with the other party, "I still want to talk to you. Putting aside our positions, we can ask each other a few questions. You should also be curious about me... provided that you still retain your self-awareness."
