#5 I’m such a smart guy
“——”
In the silent night, a group of suspicious people suddenly appeared in the suburbs, accompanied by the sound of messy footsteps, bringing a hint of chill to the air here.
Su Ming, who was hiding in the grass, stared closely at this scene and looked at the suspicious uninvited guests.
These people wore masks on their faces, some covering the whole face, some covering half of their faces, and without exception, i could not see their faces clearly.
But these people were wearing unified combat uniforms and carrying weapons, and at a glance i knew that they were not something to mess with.
Su Ming was certain that these people were either hunters or warlocks.
A whole group of twenty or thirty people dared to go out to the suburbs collectively in the middle of the night, and Su Ming did not believe that they were common people.
What happened next also confirmed Su Ming’s idea.
I saw that a masked man at the head gave some instructions to the two people in the crowd, so that the two people walked out of the queue.
The two opened their hands in unison, and circular arrays continued to appear on their hands.
There is no doubt that these two are warlocks.
They are casting a spiritual technique, and the light stream composed of bursts of particles began to sweep away like sound waves.
Seeing this, Su Ming froze in his heart.
“They’re using 【Rising Force Restraining Flow】 for detection?”
【Rising Force Restraining Flow】, an intermediate spiritual technique, ranked forty-fifth in the sequence, is a detection technique.
The function of this spell is to detect lifeforms within a certain range.
Su Ming recognized this spiritual technique, and without any hesitation, directly opened the backpack of the interface in his brain, and took out a bottle of medicine from it.
This is a bottle of Hidden Bewilderment. After taking it, it can reduce its own life response, allowing the user to stop almost all life activities within an hour, and it will not cause any physical discomfort and side effects.
Such a bottle of alchemical potion is normaly only used when it needs to enter an extremely harsh environment.
For example, in a swamp full of poisonous gas or a very deep water bottom, taking such a bottle of medicine can make oneself do not need to breathe and metabolize, so that people can explore those dangerous places with harsh environments.
Sometimes, some people will use this potion to play dead, in order to deceive the enemy.
The value of this bottle of alchemy potion is not low, at least the average student has basically no conditions to buy it at any time, only those professional hunters and warlocks will buy it.
Su Ming also opened such a bottle of Hidden Bewilderment during an unpacking event, and kept it in his backpack until he took it out today.
After taking it out, Su Ming took the bottle of the potion silently.
That’s right, he intends to use this potion to evade the detection of those suspicious people.
【Rising Force Restraining Flow】is a spiritual technique specially used to detect life forms.
In other words, as long as it is not a living body, it will not cause the reaction of 【Rising Force Restraining Flow】.
Although Su Ming didn’t know the details of this suspicious group, and he couldn’t be sure how they would react if they found someone around him, he wouldn’t gamble with uncertain personal safety.
Therefore, Su Ming didn’t have any intention of revealing himself, and chose to continue to hide almost as a conditioned reflex.
The detected particle flow kept sweeping across his body, but did not cause any life response.
The two warlocks did not stop the detection, but swam on the spot, continuing to conduct reconnaissance.
The masked man at the head also waved his hand, causing the other suspicious characters who were suspected to be hunters to follow them around, as if they were looking for something.
“Could it be that it was specifically for me?”
In the grass, Su Ming’s heart gradually sank.
However, soon, he dismissed the idea.
“In the past year, I have never revealed my true strength, and I have never received any overly conspicuous tasks. They have no reason to aim at me.”
Not to mention, Su Ming ran out of the academy just on a whim tonight. No one knew that he would appear here. This suspicious group came here in such a hurry, and were not afraid to arouse his vigilance at all. , then the possibility of them coming for him is very low.
Plus, a group of 20 or 30 people, all hunters and warlocks, using it to deal with me, is it completely a bull’s knife?
Based on these considerations, Su Ming believes that these people are unlikely to come specifically for him.
Besides, there’s no reason, isn’t it?
“But then, what are they looking for?”
Su Ming just flashed such a thought, and then gave up thinking.
There is no reason for it, it has nothing to do with yourself.
“Let’s get out first.”
Su Ming only had such thoughts.
Such a suspicious group appeared in the suburbs in the middle of the night, still looking for something, no matter how you looked at it, it didn’t seem like a trivial matter.
Whatever their purpose is, what is certain is that once he get involved, it is bound to cause great trouble.
And Su Ming has no interest in asking for trouble.
Don’t forget, his dream is to be invincible in the world.
It is still far from being invincible in the world, so naturally Su Ming would not take the initiative to contact such an obvious suspicious incident.
“Slip away.”
Su Ming planned to slip away quietly.
However, in the next second, Su Ming stopped again.
He suddenly had an idea.
“At a time like this, I won’t suffer from a bloody routine, will i?”
The plots of countless TV dramas and novels in the past flashed through Su Ming’s mind at this moment, allowing Su Ming to easily find similar bloody scenes.
For example, when preparing to leave quietly, often, there will be a mandatory plot drop at this time.
Like kicking a soda can, knocking over a wine bottle, anyway, they “accidentally” created some movement, which led to being discovered by the enemy.
This is a bloody plot that has appeared in countless plots, also known as a forced plot.
The encounter at this moment made Su Ming remember of such a thing.
“Stop it.”
Su Ming wanted to cry without tears.
He knew that this might be because he thought too much.
But as a person who aims for a minor character, Su Ming knows very well that in such a cruel world, if he doesn’t think a little bit more, if he doesn’t act with little more cautious, it is very likely to be the dead end.
Does Su Ming want to get a dead end?
Do not make jokes.
He doesn’t want to be the kind of minor character that can leave the stage after getting killed, but the minor character that can go on without anyone noticing, and fight for the opportunity to develop secretly.
For this reason, Su Ming would rather think more, and be more cautious.
So you can live longer and become stronger.
In other words, Su Ming did not want to encounter any accidents.
“Why don’t i just use 【Order of Shifting Heaven and Earth】 to give these people a second?”
Su Ming couldn’t help but think so.
But this is not realistic.
It’s not that 【Order of Shifting Heaven and Earth] doesn’t have such power, but Su Ming knows that he can’t use [Order of Shifting Heaven and Earth】.
Just now, Su Ming seemed to have comprehended the 【Order of Shifting Heaven and Earth] technique, but he knows about his own affairs, and he was certain that even if he continued to comprehend it just now, he would not be able to use the [Order of Shifting Heaven and Earth】 in the end.
The reason is very simple, his spiritual power is not enough.
As a powerful technique that almost stands on the ceiling of high-level Spiritual Techinique, it is conceivable how much spiritual power is required to use 【Order of Shifting Heaven and Earth】.
Although Su Ming has given out items that can improve his spiritual power many times in the package over the past year, his spiritual power has already exceeded the level of the students, but this level of spiritual power still cannot support Su Ming to use advanced Spiritual Techinique techniques. A technique close to the ceiling.
As for relying on your own strength to be tough…
Su Ming looked at the crowded opponent, and then looked at himself alone, and decisively abandoned this idea.
It’s not Long Aotian’s age anymore, do you really think that you can go to the universe after one year?
Su Ming is not such a person.
Before you are sure of the opponent’s strength, it is impossible to be tough, and it is impossible to expose yourself. You can only find a way to continue like this.
“Since I can’t beat…”
Why not… join them?
Su Ming had an idea.
He opened the backpack, took out a black combat suit from the backpack, put it on while putting on a mask for himself.
Don’t ask him why he has these things in his backpack, just think carefully.
These days, without night clothes and no tools that can hide my identity, I can’t use my full power.
Su Ming has long considered whether one day he will encounter an emergency that requires his full strength. Therefore, in order not to reveal his identity at that time, he has always prepared various props to hide his true face.
Now is the time to realize the fruits of my preparations in times of peace!
So, Su Ming quickly dressed himself up, and then quietly stood up from the grass.
“Crack…”
Almost at the same time, there was a sound of branches breaking from under Su Ming’s feet.
Yes.
He stepped on a branch.
“————!”
In an instant, all the suspicious people around turned their heads sharply and looked in Su Ming’s direction.
Under the gazes of so many people present, Su Ming had no waves in his heart, and even thought… swearing!
I know…I know…!
Su Ming breathed out the fragrance in his heart, and at the same time began to learn from watching the people around him very naturally, as if he was looking for something, he slowly moved the grass.
At this moment, Su Ming looked like a little minor character in a suspicious group.
Everyone looked at this clumsy companion who was dressed in a similar fashion to him and the others, but his hands and feet were not very flexible.
“Nice!”
Su Ming praised his wit in his heart.
Sure enough, there are a lot of people in this group, as long as they don’t deliberately count the number of people, then, logically, they won’t find out that there is a spy among themselves and others.
As long as you quietly mix in it, you can be an inconspicuous minor character.
It really is the safest to be a minor character!
Su Ming does not accept any refutation!
Next, as long as you quietly leave the team, you can leave without been noted!
“I am such a smart guy!”
Just when Su Ming was laughing in his heart, a voice suddenly sounded.
“found it!”
Such a sentence broke the repressed calm of the scene.
