Chapter 487: Tracker

"Two?" Ailontan was slightly stunned and asked curiously: "Who are they?"

"One is my brother..." Ling Xin said: "I have lived under his protection since I was a child. Outsiders think that we are all geniuses of the Ling family, but only I know how terrifying my brother's talent is. The reason why he broke through and entered the clan at the same age as me was actually to devote more energy to taking care of me who was still young... If he was really given the best conditions and practiced without distraction, his achievements would definitely be higher than now!"

Higher than the first person under Yuhua?

After listening to Ailontan's retelling, Luo Jun was slightly shocked. He had never seen Ling Yao, but Luo Jun had heard the legends about him so many times that his ears were calloused...

Higher than this title, it can only be that he has taken the last step...

Just as Luo Jun was thinking, Ailontan continued to ask: "What about the other one?"

"The other one... is naturally Ye, who is now in the limelight." Ling Xin shook her head and said: "I have only met him twice, but I can feel that between these two meetings, in just a few months, his strength has made a lot of progress."

Progress? Luo Jun was slightly stunned. This time was fine. The last time he met Ling Xin as Ye was in the Excellence Trial Field. At that time, both of them were deprived of all enhancements and could only rely on their innate bones to fight. Normally, Ling Xin could not see his full strength at that time, so how could she judge whether he had improved?

"I heard that you were rescued by Ye last time?" Ailontan asked at Luo Jun's instruction: "Was he not as strong as he is now?"

"At that time, we were all deprived of vitality by the mysterious power... But I witnessed his posture of challenging the monster." Ling Xin answered honestly: "Although I can't see through his realm at that time, I can see that he should be a martial artist, and comparing the two times, his Gangqi should have been greatly strengthened in the past few months."

"You can see this?" Ailontan was surprised: "Is there any trick?"

"Because of habit." Ling Xin replied: "Once the fighting habit is formed, it is difficult to change it easily. Although Ye had no vitality a few months ago, judging from his fighting habits, he is obviously good at close combat."

"Then how to judge that his Gangqi has been strengthened?" Ailontan continued to ask.

"It's still a fighting habit." Ling Xin explained: "They are both fighting schools, but the strength of their Qi is different, and their fighting styles are also different. In most cases, fighting schools fight in close combat, and try to get as close to the enemy as possible. Their moves are also derived from ordinary people's fighting skills."

"But when the realm is cultivated to a certain level, the Qi is no longer close to the body surface, the attack range is increased, and some habits in combat will also change accordingly."

"I compared some details of Ye's movements during these two times, and I can see that he was still very adaptable to close combat before, but this time, when fighting the enemy, he almost abandoned the fighting habits of ordinary people!"

"Even a first-class master of the fighting school would find it difficult to do this. Either Ye changed his faction in the past few months and gained a certain ability to excel in medium and short-range combat, or his Qi has been terribly improved, and the coverage range can be extremely large."

After listening to Ling Xin's explanation, Luo Jun thought about it for a while.

It can only be said that it makes sense, but he does not completely agree.

His Qi has indeed made a qualitative leap, after all, it is from nothing to something. However, the change in fighting habits is not entirely due to the Gang Qi.

Because although his Gang Qi range is extremely large, the Condensed Gang Qi will compress the huge amount of "fluffy" Gang Qi to the extreme, turning it into hard armor attached to the surface of the body. Unless he uses the attack method of stretching the Gang Qi, the range of Gang Qi in daily combat is not much different from that of ordinary martial arts.

Then why did his fighting habits change so thoroughly?

Because of the remains of the saint!

This guy is not a normal creature. Although he has a human appearance, his moves, movements, habits, and even the ability of the body to stretch and deform to a certain extent are not possessed by ordinary people. Luo Jun practiced with this thing for two days, and during this period, he died dozens of times. Naturally, he grew up slowly in the battle and changed many habits when facing ordinary people and practitioners.

It can be said that Ling Xin's conclusion is not bad, it can be regarded as an unexpected success.

"Even so, only these two guys are more talented than you." Alontan smiled and said, "You are still the young generation, the top genius."

"It's different." Ling Xin shook her head: "Chimpanzees' intelligence is second only to humans, so what's the use?"

"Uh... the term chimpanzee is a bit too much..." Alontan frowned and said, "If you are all chimpanzees, then what are we? Paramecium?"

"No need to identify yourself..." Ling Xin shook her head: "You only looked and didn't buy along the way. Are you preparing for the treasure appraisal conference?"

"I want to buy, but I don't have the capital." Alontan shrugged his shoulders.

"You completed the B-level task alone this time, and the evaluation is almost perfect." Ling Xin smiled and said, "And the dean, professor, and Mr. Yuan are all very caring for you. It would be strange if you don't have any goods in your hands."

"I don't know whether there are goods or not. I am mainly curious about the process of the treasure appraisal conference." Luo Jun asked through Alontan: "What do we use for auction?"

"I haven't participated in it specifically." Ling Xin shook her head: "The treasure appraisal conference is held irregularly, sometimes several times a year, sometimes not once in several years. I have never caught up, but I heard It’s said to be in the form of barter, so there’s no point worrying about it now, we’ll know it when the time comes.”

…………

At the entrance of the black market, three people wearing masks met Anhao and entered smoothly.

"You actually have access to the Ningdong black market?" One of the short and fat men said, with a voice that sounded like blood: "I have long heard that the Ningdong black market is one of the major black markets in Cathay, but Ningdong After all, it is the location of the Gate, and the Yuanxiu Society has invested a lot of effort here, so we have never dared to join in the fun."

"You are wanted after all..." The taller one among the three smiled and said, "I lived in Ningdong for a period of time before, and I am qualified."

"Then how can you be sure that the boy named Luo Jun will definitely come here?" The strongest one among the three asked, listening to the voice, the Mountain Shaker Ghost was officially ranked fifth on the wanted list.

"I'm not 100% sure." The lanky man shook his head: "But since that kid hides his strength, it means that he doesn't have absolute trust in the official. He will definitely not trade high-grade treasures openly, so Mostly frequent visitors to the black market.”

"Especially this time, with his ability, he should be able to clear a B-level mission by himself. It is very likely that he has achieved epic quality. Today, he has a treasure appraisal conference, so he will not miss this opportunity."

"Is there a treasure appraisal conference..." Blood Tribulus geared up: "There must be a lot of treasures. If we rob this place, wouldn't we make a lot of money?"

"Don't be stupid!" The lanky man pointed out: "Zheng Yuanqiang behind the ability to run such a large black market is definitely not simple... They say he is suspected of being at the top. In my opinion, without peak strength, it is impossible to have the confidence. Such a big show is happening right under the official’s nose!”

"I know too..." Blood Tribulus glanced at the surrounding stalls: "It's just that seeing so many treasures makes my hands feel a little itchy."

"Don't worry, that boy named Luo Jun definitely has a lot of treasures." The tall and lanky man sneered: "Although in theory, violence is prohibited in the black market. But as long as you bypass the guards and the eyes and ears, you can do it without anyone noticing. It’s not a big problem to kill one person.”

"As promised in advance, I will provide the lock pick. No matter what grade the Noble Phantasm is opened, I will take one first, and you will share the rest equally."

"Don't worry, although we are wanted criminals, we still follow the rules." Mountain Shaker Ghost said, "But I'm a little curious, why are you so obsessed with killing this kid?"

"Well..." The cold man pondered for a moment. At this time, Xue Tribulus's eyes suddenly lit up and he pointed in one direction and said: "Look, it's that kid!"

The two looked along and saw two young people, a man and a woman, chatting in front of a stall.

"That's him!" The tall and thin man frowned: "He looks exactly the same as in the photo."

"That's Luo Jun?" Shanshangui has never seen him before. "She looks quite ordinary...but the woman next to him has a pure and radiant energy, which is invisible and invisible. She is a master!"

"What should we do now?" Blood Tribulus licked his lips.

"Follow me first. With so many people there, there is always a chance to make a move." As he said that, the tall and thin man raised his hand, holding a silver needle between his fingers. The tip of the needle glowed green, which was obviously quenched with poison.

In this way, the three of them followed Ling Xin and Ai Longtan all the way. It looked like they were shopping casually, but in fact they were always paying attention to the two evil movements.

It has to be said that the top ten players on the wanted list still have something. Blood Tribulus and Mountain Shaker Ghost have accumulated rich counter-investigation experience for many years under the pursuit of the Yuan Xiu Society. The tall and thin man is not an ordinary person. He can hide his aura. Their abilities are very impressive. The three of them were hanging so far away, and under the cover of many passers-by, even if they were as sensitive as Ling Xin, they didn't notice at all.

But alas, they caught another person's attention.

This is often the case, people with the same purpose often behave in the same way.

Ling Xin and Ai Longtan are both experts. While following, they also need to avoid being discovered. Even if the stalls in this black market are scattered and crowded, there are only a few tracking points to choose from.

The three of them sometimes separated and sometimes moved together. Their attention was focused on the man and woman, but they were completely unaware of a figure that always appeared near them inadvertently.

What are these three masked men doing? Luo Jun looked at the three people who looked calm on the surface but were actually sneaky, with a puzzled look on their faces.

It seems that he is also following Ailontan and Ling Xin... Ailontan is standing in my face. An ordinary student should have nothing to follow. Could it be that he wants to do something to Ling Xin?

How brave you are, how dare you provoke the Golden Phoenix Witch? Don't want to die?

Luo Jun sighed in his heart, and suddenly noticed that the tall and thin one among them suddenly raised his hand, looked at the right moment, and swung it at Ailontan!

I saw a silver needle as thin as a hair flash past and hit Ailontan in the back of the neck!

Although Ailontan is not a martial arts sect and has basic Gang Qi protection attached to his body, this silver needle as thin as a hair seems to have encountered no obstacles at all. It passes through easily and dissolves with the blood after piercing the skin. …

"Um?"

Ailontan felt an itch on the back of his neck and stretched out his hand to scratch, but found nothing. Strangely, he suddenly felt a wave of sleepiness welling up in his heart, and he couldn't help but close his eyes.

Got hit! He instinctively wanted to call for help, but found that he could hardly control his body, and could not even open his mouth or blink. Although his consciousness was becoming increasingly blurred, on the surface, he could not see any problems, even the people around him Ling Xin didn't even notice anything unusual!

At the last moment before his consciousness was about to fall asleep, Ailontan communicated with Luo Jun.

"Master, I... lost consciousness..."

This was the last bit of information he could send.

Are you actually coming for me?

After hearing Ailontan's message, Luo Jun, who had witnessed everything, was shocked. No matter how he called Ailontan, he got no response. Then I saw Ai Longtan and Ling Xin saying that they had something to do and leaving, and then walked towards a place with few people, and the three people followed them quietly.

Luo Jun frowned slightly, activated the assassin's cloak, disappeared, and followed.

Soon, Alontan came to a corner, which in reality corresponded to the back of a factory building. It was in a remote place and no one set up a stall here.

Soon, the trio of wanted criminals also arrived. The tall, thin and cold man walked up and asked Ailontan, "Your name is Luo Jun, right?"

Faced with this question, Alontan did not answer immediately, but hesitated for a second.

Others might think that his reaction was a step too slow, but Luo Jun felt differently.

When hearing this question, Alontan struggled in his heart.

As for the reason for the struggle, only Luo Jun could feel it. Under the influence of the strange drug, Alontan could only answer the truth instinctively. But because of his loyalty to Luo Jun and the fact that he has been playing Luo Jun for such a long time, when Ailontan answered, he was struggling subconsciously and was in a stalemate with the effect of the drug.

What's even more interesting is that at this moment of struggle, Luo Jun suddenly felt that he seemed to be able to control Alontan's consciousness to a certain extent!

Because of the mind-connection function of the Master Necklace, Luo Jun, as the Master, could have influenced Elontan's mind to a certain extent, but when Elontan's main consciousness was active, this subtle influence was completely covered up. But now, Ailontan's main consciousness is asleep due to drugs, and Luo Jun's influence suddenly comes to the forefront.

Of course, the silver needle used by the tall and thin man should also be a high-grade treasure. If it were just an ordinary master, it would be difficult to counteract the effect of the medicine with its weak influence. But the problem is, after being strengthened by the dice and tempered by the nine-level solid state, Luo Jun's mental power has far exceeded that of ordinary practitioners, and this influence has also been infinitely amplified!

Luo Jun tried to mobilize his mental power, and he found the trick almost instantly. After a short period of adaptation, he finally controlled Alontan's mouth and answered the question.

"I am!"
