From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star.

Chapter 41: The Abyss Fire Thief

Under the reconnaissance eagle's vision, Su Muyu saw the photo that Gong Zhenteng took out, and her heart started beating wildly in shock.

Because the person in the photo was none other than Lu Heng.

Gong Zhenteng wants to use the super crystal core as a condition to let Lei Jinhao find the murderer who killed Gong Chusheng.

The first suspect was Lu Heng.

When Su Muyu heard this information, she felt worried and quickly took back the reconnaissance eagle and took a taxi to the hotel to meet Lu Heng.

As soon as the door of the room opened, she ran in and closed the door, panting and saying, "I...I saw Lei Jinhao and Gong Zhenteng meet again, and Lei Jinhao got the fighter essence.

"Also, Gong Zhenteng used the super crystal core as a condition to ask Lei Jinhao to find the murderer who killed his son. His first target is us."

In the end, she tied herself up and decided to face it together, even though there was only Lu Heng in the photo that Gong Zhenteng took out.

Lu Heng had already thought of this possibility before, so he was not surprised to hear the news.

"What should we do now? Lei Jinhao's team has dozens of psychics." Su Muyu felt tremendous pressure.

Lu Heng grabbed a motorcycle helmet, stuffed it into her hand, and said, "In the Abyss Era, strength determines everything. As long as we are strong enough, we have nothing to fear no matter who our opponent is. Let's go! Let's go to the Quenching Castle."

Since they had the Quenching Fort Badge, they could enter the Quenching Fort at any time. So when they arrived at the No. 9 tunnel of the Century Bridge, they did not need to wait and went directly through the tunnel into the Quenching Fort.

"My friend, you are finally back. The recent quenching success rate is not ideal. If I don't get my furnace cover back, I will go bankrupt." Master Guru started complaining as soon as he saw Lu Heng.

"If that's the case, Master, you can consider raising the price of the quenching service." Lu Heng gave him a bad idea.

At this stage, those who have the resources to temper their weapons are all wealthy people. Even if the price doubles, there will still be a shortage of supply.

Based on the situation in the previous life, even if the price does not increase now, it will definitely increase in the future.

After all, there will be more and more psychics who need quenching, and in the future Quenching Castle will only provide quenching services to elite customers.

After Lu Heng came up with the bad idea, he started to get to the point: "I came here today to help the master find the furnace cover. I'm ready."

"That's great, Blackfire, come out and find that damn thief." Gollum shouted into the castle.

A creature that was completely black, had no hair, and had a ball of fire on its tail jumped out.

This little thing just looks a bit like a cat, but strictly speaking it is not a feline because it is an abyssal species.

Because it looks a bit like a cat, humans named this abyss creature the Flame-tailed Civet.

"This is my little pet. It's very well-behaved. I gave it a new name in the human world. It can smell the scent of that damn thief. You follow it and help me get the stove cover back." Guru introduced the flame-tailed civet cat.

This flame-tailed civet may not look very big, only twenty centimeters long, and appears to be very well-behaved on the surface, but it is actually a creature of the abyss. It can be very scary when it gets aggressive, and it is said that it has a record of eating a mammoth alive.

Well, just said so.

Gulu took out a bag of unknown dried meat, handed it to Lu Heng, and reminded him: "Black Fire sometimes has a bad temper. It likes to eat this, so you put it away."

"Forehead……"

After making preparations, Lu Heng and Su Muyu set out with the Flame-tailed Civet Cat to look for the Abyss Fire Thief.

This Abyss Fire Thief sneaked into Quenching Fort to steal when Quenching Fort was separated from the Abyss. As a result, he was brought to the overlapping space of Blue Star by Quenching Fort and then escaped from Quenching Fort.

Therefore, this thing should be hiding somewhere in the seaside now.

The flame-tailed civet followed the scent all the way to a steel mill, which was Bingang, the largest steel mill in the coastal area.

Looking at the gate of Bingang, Lu Heng quickly figured out why the Abyss Fire Thief was here.

The name of this thing says it all.

It likes everything related to fire, including stealing the lid of the quenching furnace because of its obsession with fire.

And the thing that is most in demand in a steel mill is flame.

If the Abyss Fire Thief is hiding in this steel mill, it means that the strategy guide I read before my rebirth is not completely applicable.

Because the psychic with the second-level "Abyss Hunter" rank found the Abyss Fire Thief on the seashore, not in the steel mill.

In fact, if you think about it for a while, you will know the reason.

This "Abyss Hunter" captured the Abyss Fire Thief half a year after the abyss descended.

Now is the second month since the abyss arrived, with a gap of more than four months in between.

It is impossible for the Abyss Fire Thief to stay in the same place for such a long time.

……

It was night time. There were only a few workers on night shift at the steel mill, and they were all resting in the air-conditioned room.

Lu Heng asked Su Muyu to open the [Invisible Curtain] and enter the steel plant.

Once we determine that the Abyss Fire Thief is hiding in the steel mill, it will be easy to find him.

Su Muyu released the reconnaissance eagle and flew it around the steel plant.

Soon the mid-level demon, the Abyss Fire Stealer, was found in the steelmaking workshop.

From a distance, the Abyss Fire Thief looks like a rat-headed monster walking upright, with sharp claws, crimson mane, and very sharp deep eyes.

At this moment, the Abyss Fire Thief was standing next to the steel furnace, absorbing the heat from the fire.

Lu Heng was covered with an invisible curtain. He walked to the second-floor platform of the steelmaking workshop, observed the surrounding environment, and planned his strategy for the next move.

The Abyss Fire Thief is good at hiding and escaping. It is not difficult to defeat it, but it is difficult to catch it.

Once you let it escape, it will definitely hide somewhere else, and trying to find it later will be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

This is also the reason why you have to practice your body skills to the subtle level before coming here, otherwise you will not be able to catch up with it at all.

After observing the environment, Lu Heng slowly approached the Abyss Fire Thief from behind in an invisible state.

When it was close to 20 meters away, the Abyss Fire Thief's nose twitched, and then it moved its body and fled out of the steelmaking workshop.

Lu Heng didn't expect that this thing's nose was so sensitive that it could smell the scent from more than 20 meters away.

This is also a disadvantage of the [invisible curtain]. It only has an optical invisible effect and cannot block odors.

At this point, we have no choice but to use force.

Lu Heng rushed out like the wind, speeding up to the limit. In almost the blink of an eye, he passed the place where the Abyss Fire Thief had just stood and continued to chase forward.

After the pursuit was launched, the movement became louder.

The Abyss Fire Thief sensed that there was a pursuer behind him, and he sprayed out a cloud of mist, and his figure disappeared in the mist.

Lu Heng walked through the fog and looked around, but he could no longer see any trace of the Abyss Fire Thief.

"Mu Yu!" Lu Heng shouted into the Bluetooth headset.

Almost at the same time, a reconnaissance eagle flew in from the window, passing low in the sky and locating the position of the Abyss Fire Thief.

Lu Heng continued to chase forward, following behind the scout eagle.

After an intense run and blocking several obstacles thrown back by the Abyss Fire Thief, Lu Heng's invisibility gradually lost effect.

When the Abyss Fire Thief escaped, he knocked over a lot of things and made a lot of noise.

Two officers on duty heard the noise, ran out with flashlights, and shouted, "Who is it?"

Lu Heng ignored them and continued to run forward following the reconnaissance eagle, reaching a speed of 30 meters per second, passing by the two on-duty personnel.

The two personnel on duty had never seen a human being move so fast before and their eyes were wide open with fear.

The Abyss Fire Thief was still in stealth mode and escaped from the steelmaking workshop in the blink of an eye. His speed was not inferior to Lu Heng and he obviously had acceleration skills.

The acceleration skill plus the stealth skill have brought the word "hiding" to its extreme.

Fortunately, Su Muyu is here, otherwise there would be no chance of touching a single hair of it.

Su Muyu controlled the reconnaissance eagle, flying two meters above the head of the Abyss Fire Thief, locking its position.

Lu Heng couldn't see the Abyss Fire Thief, so he could only follow the Scouting Eagle.

After the Abyss Fire Thief escaped from the steelmaking workshop, he began to jump up and down between factory buildings, and even walked on walls.

Lu Heng used his subtle body movements to the extreme and followed closely behind, also tumbling, leaping, and running on eaves and walls.

We chased them all the way out of the steel mill, into the mountains, and shuttled through the pine forest.

The Abyss Fire Thief's exaggerated escape speed was so fast that Lu Heng, with his subtle body movements and C-level Gale Step, could hardly catch up.

At this point in time, there will be no one else who can practice body skills to the subtle level.

If anyone else came, there would be no way they could catch this thing.

No wonder this hidden mission was not completed until half a year later by a psychic with the second-level job "Abyss Hunter".

Moreover, according to the description of this second-level professional, the Abyss Fire Thief's means of escape are not limited to this, there is also a trump card given to it by the professional essence.
