Chapter 186 Fire in the Backyard?

Zhang Shi released Pipi and let it gain experience while being on guard. He took out his compound bow and started shooting at the street in front of him. I don’t know if there are too many invisible entities, or if they simply don’t avoid it. In just a few minutes, the entrance to the warehouse was filled with translucent bodies stained with blood.

A ray of light flashed, and Zhang Shi finally reached level 25 after many days, unlocking a new professional skill.

[Evil Thoughts: Passive skill, every time you kill a target, there will be a 20% probability of generating a shadow at the target's location. 】

Zhang Shi knew how powerful this skill was, and he couldn't wait to test the effect of the skill, so he blindly shot forward even harder.

A few arrows fell down, and soon the effect of evil thoughts was successfully triggered. A shadow that was the same as Zhang Shi appeared in front of the invisible body. Other monsters must have discovered the existence of the shadow, and rushed towards it. Just tear the shadow into pieces.

Zhang Shi was stunned. He remembered that shadows exist in the form of energy and are immune to all physical attacks. These invisible entities can cause damage to shadows, indicating that their attack methods exist in the form of energy, but they themselves can be attacked by ordinary people. The physical attack damage is somewhat different from that of the soul.

Zhang Shi used his bow again. After triggering his evil thoughts this time, he passed a steel knife to the shadow. Zhang Shi controlled the shadow with all his heart to fight. Shadow Slash and Triple Strike were used together, and the area in front of him was cleared in one go. At the same time, more shadows were triggered, and Zhang Shi's level improvement maintained the duration of the shadow at about 3 seconds. A shadow army soon formed on the street.

After the number of shadows increased, Zhang Shi found it difficult to control without distraction, but the advantage of numbers was still vividly displayed in small-scale battles. In just a few minutes, the streets returned to silence.

The shadow dissipated, leaving only blood and corpses on the ground. Without the beast to clean up, the whole street was filled with a strong smell of blood.

The number of enemies killed by Zhang Shi and others also successfully reached 1,000, unlocking the teleport point in Fog City. At the same time, a private chat message came from Zhang Shi's system panel. Zhang Shi clicked on it and found that it was Maotai. Zhang Shi was startled, guessing that something might have happened on the island. Before he could open the private chat, Cai Qing also sent him a message. The content was exactly as he had guessed. A fleet was parked near the island. There are more than fifty ships in total. Lao Bai has already deployed artillery along the coastline. Now he will go back to take charge of the overall situation.

Zhang Shi heard that the other party had more than fifty ships and knew that the other party was by no means an idle person. He immediately informed everyone of the request and decided to return to the island immediately to deal with the emergency.

Zhang Shi opened the system panel and clicked on evacuation. With the white light flashing, five figures appeared at the secret stone monument on the island.

Just when Zhang Shi was about to rush to the north bank to check the situation, Pippi beside him suddenly started barking. Zhang Shi knew Pipi's character well and knew that it was very smart and would not make noise for no reason, so he quickly turned to look at everyone.

At this glance, Zhang Shi immediately realized that something was wrong. Only five of the original six people had returned, and Chen Beipan, who was staying behind to act as a transparent person, was nowhere to be seen.

Zhao Feng also noticed that Chen Beipan suddenly disappeared and cursed angrily.

"This bastard, I let him run away without paying attention. If I had known this, I should have broken his legs in advance."

Ge Dalong shook his head and explained.

"The situation is not right. When we evacuated, the whole team evacuated. I didn't see anyone leaving the team. He probably didn't escape on his own initiative."

Zhang Shi also silently sensed the master-servant connection with Chen Beipan and found that the connection between the two had become extremely weak, but the contract still existed.

"The connection between the master and servant contract is still there. I won't be able to figure out what happened to him for a while. Let's deal with the problems on the island first."

Zhang Shi quickly gathered his thoughts and realized that the most important thing at the moment was to deal with the crisis on the island. He turned to everyone and briefly assigned tasks: "Brother Feng, Lao Ge, you two are responsible for checking the equipment and supplies to ensure that we can go into battle at any time. I and others first went to the north bank to check the situation, and at the same time contacted Lao Bai to learn about the ship The latest news from the team.”

Zhao Feng and Ge Dalong nodded in agreement and took action quickly. Zhang Shi took the remaining team members, including Pippi, and quickly headed to the north bank. On the way, he quickly got in touch with Lao Bai through Cai Qing, Mao Tai and others.

"Lao Bai, we are back here. How is the situation of the fleet? Are there any further actions?"

There was a hint of urgency in Zhang Shi's voice.

Lao Bai's voice came from the watch, with a hint of solemnity: "Lord, the fleet does not seem to have immediate plans to land, but they are wandering on the sea, possibly waiting for some signal or opportunity. I have asked the artillery to Stay on high alert and be ready to respond to emergencies.”

"Okay, we'll go over there, you can stabilize the situation first."

After Zhang Shi finished speaking, he hung up the communication and quickened his pace.

After arriving at the north shore, many soldiers were already in place and were staring nervously at the coast. Zhang Shi's arrival greatly boosted the morale of the originally nervous soldiers, and they stared more intently at the ships on the coast.

Zhang Shi did not say much, but quickly found a hidden position and observed the situation on the sea through a panoramic map. Sure enough, as Lao Bai said, a large fleet fanned out on the sea, with shadowy figures on each ship, and the busy figures of the crew could be vaguely seen. Zhang Shi noticed that most of these ships were equipped with heavy weapons, including several giant cannons, the barrels of which were fixed in the cabin, with the muzzles sticking out, pointing to the island from afar.

"It seems that the other party is not friendly."

...

The sea station is also operating normally today. Many tourists who landed on the island by themselves were frightened by the fleet on the sea and hurriedly drove away. More tourists who arrived at the island through Wang Wu's team are gathering in the bar, clamoring for Zhang Shi to come out and give an explanation.

Mao Tai has never encountered such a thing, so he can only keep calming the tourists. Originally, he could calm down for a while with Zhang Shi's reputation, but Zhang Shi did not show up for a long time, and these tourists became more and more uneasy and agitated, and they were about to make trouble.

At the critical moment, Zhang Shi pushed open the door of the bar.

"Who wants to see me?"

In the bar, there was a sudden silence.

"Who wants to see me? I'm here, why doesn't anyone reply?"

Zhang Shi's tone was neither hot nor cold. Seeing that no one in the group of tourists dared to speak, he sat in front of the bar and drank a glass of beer on the bar in one gulp.

"I know that the fleet on the sea looks very intimidating, and everyone is a little uneasy. I, Zhang Shi, hereby promise everyone that as long as I am here, no ship will land on the island without my permission."

Seeing Zhang Shi made a promise, the tourists looked at each other, and then a big bald man in flowered shorts stood up to explain.

"Boss Zhang Shi, we have no other intentions, but we are a little worried that those scoundrels on the sea will make trouble, ruin everyone's fun, and affect your business. At that time, it will be embarrassing for us to fight each other."

Zhang Shi smiled and nodded, and then spoke loudly again.

"Don't worry, everyone. Please go back to the post station and continue playing music and dancing. I'll take care of the things outside."

"Mao Tai, today's drinks will be 20% off. This is my compensation for your friends' fright."
