Infinite Puzzle City

Chapter 239 Brothers, a lifelong thing (fourth update)
Xiao Ran stepped back step by step.

When he turned around, he saw Shanlong, Zishu and others leading their team towards him with gloomy faces.

When everyone saw the Changchun Society, they immediately made way for them.

Anyone who is not blind can see that the faces of the people in Changchun Society are not looking good.

In fact, if you think about it, you can understand that this time Changchun would mobilize a large number of people to attack here. I thought it was a perfect strategy to sweep the mystery city.

The results of it?
A big dream.

It seems that quite a few people have died. The Changchun Society has lost all its face, so naturally their mood is not very good.

But this is just what most people can guess.

In fact, the situation is far worse than everyone expected.

It was not only because of the failure of this land reclamation, but also because the leader of the Changchun Society died.

The Changchun Society has no more than four leaders.

A leader of the association actually died in this place. This is not only a loss for the Changchun Association, but also a fact that the Changchun Association cannot face.

Now even the body has not been found, which is undoubtedly a huge blow to the Changchun Society.

After all, the leader's body is too important.

Once it falls into the hands of others, it will inevitably cause immeasurable damage to the entire Changchun Association.

Professions such as robber, chef, antique judge, corpse receiver, listener, and medium are people who have the ability to obtain many things from corpses.

Especially robbers and corpse collectors.

The former can plunder the space and abilities of corpses.

The latter is able to plunder the memories of corpses.

None of these options are acceptable to the Changchun Association.

Xiao Ran followed the crowd and retreated, but when Zi Shu and others jumped past him, they suddenly stopped and looked at Xiao Ran in unison.

"not good!"

The moment Zi Shu and the others looked at Xiao Ran, Xiao Ran's pupils tightened and he almost instinctively wanted to step back.

But as soon as I moved, I felt someone bumping into me from behind.

When he turned around, he saw Wu Man standing behind him, staring at him.

"hiss!!!"

Xiao Ran felt a chill on his back. Even the looks from Zi Shu and the others were not as terrifying as the one from Wu Man standing behind him.

“When did this guy hide behind my ass???”

Wu Man smiled meaningfully at Xiao Ran, then looked at Zi Shu and the others: "Any questions?"

Shanlong's face darkened. He wanted to say something, but was blocked by Jinniu. He shook his head at Wu Man and said, "Sorry, it's nothing."

After saying that, he pulled Shanlong away without looking back.

Shanlong looked puzzled. He took a few steps before shaking off Jinniu's arm with an unhappy look: "What are you doing? It must be that kid who suddenly pulled me away!!"

While they were fighting with Xiao Ran, someone had tampered with Xiao Ran.

This is also the reason why they noticed Xiao Ran first.

But just because there was an extra person behind the other party, Zi Rat, Taurus and others left immediately. It was puzzling that Taurus was a reckless man, but why Zi Rat didn't want to speak was really puzzling to him.

Faced with Shanlong's questioning, Taurus snorted coldly and was too lazy to answer him.

The Rat on the side could only explain on behalf of the Taurus: "The opponent is a C-level professional. If he wants to turn against you, are you sure you can beat him?"

"C-rank?"

Shanlong's eyes widened and he turned around to look in Wu Man's direction in disbelief.

"Are you sure??"

C-level professionals are extremely rare.

The promotion requirement for the head of the Changchun Society is C-level, but even with the advanced level [Mr. Gold] who can steal jade, there are only four heads.

This shows how rare C-level professionals are.

And being rare also means crushing strength.

Just like the gap between D-level beginners and E-level beginners, even though there is only a one-level difference, the abilities they demonstrate are completely on a different level.

By the same token, the suppression of beginners by C-level professionals is simply unsolvable.

Just like when the leader attacked Xiao Ran, he didn't need the assistance of the cursed object at all. Just relying on the power brought by the C-level professional ability, he was able to severely injure Xiao Ran with one move.

Wu Man has the unique aura of a C-level professional.

Taurus feels this kind of atmosphere most deeply.

This is why Taurus must stop the Mountain Dragon.

Otherwise, if the relationship falls out, if the other party gets unhappy, it won't be a problem to just kill everyone.

"C-level professional? How come I have no impression of this guy? I have never heard of such a person."

There was no mask on Wu Man's face, but Shan Long had no impression of Wu Man.

Normally, someone of this level should be quite famous.

But no matter what, it was a foregone conclusion that the other party was a C-level professional. The other party's demeanor clearly showed that he wanted to protect that kid. Thinking of this, Shanlong couldn't help but mutter, "Bah, this little slut, why is there someone protecting him everywhere!!"

"Stop talking, go back first. The current situation is no longer our turn to make the decision."

Zi Shu didn't want to continue the discussion here. Now he just wanted to leave this place immediately, especially as far away from Wu Man as possible.

“Leaving now?”

Xiao Ran looked at the figures of Jin Niu and others going away, and couldn't help but look back at Wu Man with surprise: "They seem to be very afraid of you?" As he said that, he turned to Wu Man's side calmly.

After looking at Wu Man for a while, he could feel that Wu Man seemed a little different from before.

But Xiao Ran couldn't tell what the specific difference was.

It seems that standing there, I have a sense of transcendence.
"Hey, I made a lot of money this time. Let's go and talk while walking. Let's get out of this damn place first."

Wu Man grinned and walked out with Xiao Ran.

"durian!!"

After taking a few steps, he heard someone calling Xiao Ran in the distance. Xiao Ran turned around and found that it was Pingguo and a few others walking up.

"Wait a minute, these are all my friends."

Xiao Ran said something to Wu Man and quickly walked up to Apple and the others.

"We hadn't found you just now, and we thought something had happened to you."

Xigua said to Xiao Ran.

"I'm fine, I just had a dream this time, and it lasted for quite a long time."

"We were the same, groggy and confused, either playing the suona or fighting everywhere."

Hearing Xigua's words, Xiao Ran's eyebrows moved slightly, and he looked at Xigua and others: "Then who do you think you played in your dream?"

"My last name is Yang, and my name is Yang Fengchui. Oh, it was so miserable. I wanted to wake up several times, but when I thought of my brothers, I didn't dare to wake up every time."

As Xigua spoke, his eyes turned red.

When these words were spoken, Pineapple, Orange, and even Xiao Ran were all stunned.

Apple frowned, and seeing that Watermelon was about to cry, he suddenly stretched out his arm and patted Watermelon on the shoulder: "You have a conscience, and it's worth it that Big Brother loves you!"

"Brother??"

"I'm Zhao Qingming!"

"Fuck!!"

Both Orange and Pineapple couldn't help but swear.

The two looked at each other, and Ju Zi said, "I am Sun Miao."

Pineapple: "I'm Zhou Shang."

As soon as these words were spoken, the four of them looked at each other, and then all turned their gazes to Xiao Ran.

When Xiao Ran saw the four people looking at him, he was instantly overwhelmed with emotions and said with a bitter face: "You guys, every time you are in such danger, why don't you take the initiative to wake up?"

"Just like Fengchui... No, it's just like Xigua. We almost woke up several times, but we couldn't let it go, so we didn't dare to struggle."

Apple's words made Xiao Ran not know whether to cry or laugh.

No wonder, these people are simply too deep in the dream, even if they encounter danger several times, they will not take the initiative to break free from the dream.

Perhaps for them at that time, the identities of Apple and others seemed more like an unreal dream.

Having said that, if I were trapped in the maze in the womb, I would probably be like them and not want to struggle.

The feelings between the brothers are so deep that they are willing to risk their lives for each other, yet they still care about each other in their hearts.

"Stop beating around the bush. You look like the same person to me!" Apple narrowed her eyes and looked Xiao Ran up and down.

"Yeah!!"

Xigua looked at Xiao Ran. Although his appearance had changed, the feeling and even the smell on his body were so familiar.

Xiao Ran opened his mouth, and almost couldn't help blurting out, "I'm Xiao Lao Si!"

But when the words came to his lips, Xiao Ran smiled and said, "You are mistaken. I was a tailor in there, and I just woke up in a daze."

After saying that, Xiao Ran couldn't bear to look at the four people's lost eyes, and turned away: "I still have something to do, we will meet again if we are destined."

"Hey……"

Watermelon wanted to say something, but Apple covered his mouth with his hand and waited until Xiao Ran walked away before letting Watermelon go.

"Brother, what are you doing? He is obviously Xiao Laosi. He doesn't admit it, but the knife is definitely not wrong."

They had seen the five-ring guillotine in Xiao Ran's hand before on the bus, and later in their dream, Xiao Zhenye was holding this big knife in his hand.

So they were sure that Xiao Ran was the Xiao Laosi they were looking for.

"What are you saying? Where is this place? Do you think I'm your local boss?"

The apple rolled its eyes at the watermelon, which had not yet woken up from its dream.

Orange and Pineapple patted Watermelon on the shoulder and whispered, "So many people are scrambling to get what he has. How can you ask him to admit his identity? If he doesn't, he's protecting us."

"That……"

Xigua seemed to realize at this moment that this was the Mystery City, not the streets and alleys of Los Angeles.

He looked at Xiao Ran's back with red eyes, his lips slightly parted but he didn't know what to say.

"Let's go. We have gained a lot this time. Although it was just a dream, I seem to have some Zhao family's unique skills in my mind, and... I also seem to have something special in me."

"I feel the same way. I just feel a warmth in my belly."

The orange nodded, feeling the same as the apple.

Although there was no final reward this time, everyone could feel that they had gained something extra.

"As for the fourth child..."

Apple looked up at the direction where Xiao Ran left: "Brothers, it's a lifelong thing, and we will get together sooner or later..."

　Well, some readers have reported that sometimes the descriptions of cursed objects go into too much detail. Well... I thought about it, and I won't write in such detail in the future unless the skills of the cursed objects change. Now that the protagonist has reached level D, it is estimated that he won't be able to advance again for a long time. I will sort it out later and send you a single chapter (for free) which will list all the information about the cursed objects for you.
