Night Falls: I Kill Through the Wasteland with My Entries

Chapter 39 With ulterior motives
"It sounds like Brother Zhang's voice." The monkey tilted his ear and heard the voice with his good ear, and said in disbelief.

Su Ding frowned and glanced at his watch.

The owner of this voice definitely cannot be Zhang Kun.

Because as a veteran scavenger, Zhang Kun would never come out of the camp during the dark night.

And just as Su Ding himself didn't care about the monkey being deafened by the company's soldiers, Zhang Kun's relationship with them was not good enough to allow him to risk his life to find them.

Secondly, the wilderness was so vast, and he hadn't told Zhang Kun where they were going. If Zhang Kun could really find them, it would be a miracle!!!
"It's Dog-Headed Master!" Su Ding immediately confirmed the identity of the visitor.

Who else but Doghead could use this familiar routine?

"This dog-headed man is really haunting us." Su Ding picked up the spear, his eyes slightly cold.

Seeing this, Li Jingan picked up his spear and followed him.

"Su Ding, you guys really made it hard for me to find you! Do you know? Xiong Qian is back too! She asked me to come out and find you!!! She wanted me to tell you that she missed you very much!!!" Zhang Kun's voice was getting closer and closer.

Su Ding looked in the direction of the sound and finally found the source of the sound in the fog.

It was a humanoid monster with a mangy head, staggering towards them.

The monster's pair of deathly grey eyes were now staring straight at him, and its mouth, which was full of sharp teeth, was drooling.

"You don't think you can deal with this monster, do you?" At this moment, a sudden sound came from the side.

Hearing the noise, Su Ding and the other two immediately looked over.

Then they saw that the unconscious old man had sat up.

Su Ding frowned and looked at the other person, with no intention of talking to him.

Seeing that no one was responding, the old man coughed awkwardly and continued, "This monster is different from the rain corpse. The rain corpse is just the lowest level monster, slow and low in intelligence, so you used it as a sitting duck. But this dog-headed master has already reached the threshold of the intermediate level.

If you take it lightly, you may lose your life."

"Do monsters have levels?" the monkey couldn't help but ask.

"Of course." The old man nodded and shrugged. "Do you think the combat power of monsters like giants, ghosts, and demons is the same as that of rain corpses?"

Su Ding looked at the old man intently.

Before, he couldn't be sure.

Now it can be confirmed.

In all likelihood, the Bone Demon King was killed by the other party.

An ordinary scavenger would not know so much information.

"Then what should we do?" Li Jingan asked.

"Fight with all your might." The old man coughed and said, "You can only defeat this monster if you use all your might."

Hearing the word "fight to the death", Li Jingan's face immediately became serious. He turned his head and stared at the dog-headed man outside.

Su Dingze glanced at the old man indifferently.

He finally understood that this man woke up not out of kindness, but because he wanted the three of them to fight to the death so that he could have a chance to survive.

"What about you? Are you just going to sit here and enjoy the fruits of others' labor?" The monkey's mind was also active. He immediately understood what the old man meant and glared at him.

"I'm seriously injured now, and my arms and legs are weak. How can I help you?" The old man coughed violently, as if to confirm what he said.

"You can ask us to fight to the death, but you have to take action. Otherwise, we will deal with you first!!!" Su Ding suddenly said.

He didn't know the old man at all. Unless he was crazy, he wouldn't do something that would benefit others.

Hearing his words, the old man stopped coughing immediately, and then looked at Su Ding with a pair of dark eyes and said, "I advise you not to do this. Believe it or not, even if I am seriously injured, I can still kill the three of you."

"You can try." Su Ding looked at the old man calmly.

He didn't want to fight to the end and let others pick up the peaches.

Upon hearing this, the old man looked straight into Su Ding's eyes, as if he wanted to find something in them.

However, he only saw calmness, like a lake without ripples.

He looked at Li Jing'an and Monkey, and seeing them staring at him, he let out a sigh. "Okay. But you have to give me the black crystal and the rune stone," the old man said again.

"No." The monkey shouted immediately.

He also realized the danger of this old man.

The other person was so seriously injured that he didn't even breathe heavily when speaking. He was definitely not an ordinary person.

Hearing his words, the old man laughed angrily, "Then how do you want me to deal with this monster? Do you want me to fight this dog-headed man with my bare hands?"

"Give him your spear." Su Ding paused and said.

Then he took out a piece of black crystal from his backpack and threw it at the old man.

When Monkey and Li Jingan saw the black crystal, they were both stunned for a moment, but they didn't say anything. Only there was a change in the depths of their eyes.

The old man took the black crystal and frowned immediately when he saw its size, then looked at Su Ding.

Monkey and Li Jingan felt a sudden sense of nervousness.

"Don't you have any more black crystals?" The old man's words immediately made the two of them relax.

"There are no more, and it's not easy for us to dig out black crystals." Su Ding said.

Hearing his words, the old man's mouth twitched.

It’s not easy at all. I’ve already dug up the talisman stone, and you still say it’s not easy to dig up the black crystal. Who are you trying to fool?

But he also knew that the other party was guarding against him.

No matter how much I ask, there is still no result.

"Li Jingan, Su Ding, Monkey!!! I'm here to find you!!! Hurry up!!! Xiong Qian wants to see you!" The dog-headed monster walked on the skeleton rack.

The limbs looked skinny and weak, and they stepped on the bones. They walked very slowly, but they stepped steadily on the bones.

"It would be great if this dog-headed monster had a room. There's no way he could get in." The old man saw the dog-headed monster in the distance, complained, then picked up the black crystal that Su Ding threw to him and closed his eyes.

Then, a red light emanated from the black crystal.

Before long, the black crystal turned into powder and scattered on the ground.

Su Ding looked at this scene and was not surprised.

The person who can kill the Bone Demon King cannot be an ordinary person. In most cases, he is an awakened one.

However, the opponent's abilities were clearly different from Li Jing'an's. After absorbing the black crystal, the opponent simply breathed a sigh of relief, and the wounds on his body showed no signs of healing.

"Be careful, this dog-headed monster may look as thin as a mummy, but it is actually very fast, and its sound can also cause interference. If you are not careful, you may get hit." The old man stood up and picked up a dark dagger from the side.

Then he placed the rune stone on the dagger.

As the rune stone fell on the dagger, streams of light disappeared from the rune stone and seeped into the dagger.

The talisman stone also turned into dust and scattered around.

The originally black dagger now emitted a dark red light.

Su Ding looked at the dagger and knew in his heart that this was the precious mineral he had sensed before.

I just don’t know what’s so magical about this dagger that it can absorb the energy of the talisman stone.

After absorbing the talisman stone, the old man's expression suddenly changed, and he laughed, saying: "However, now that I have recovered some strength, I will not accompany you to die.

After all, this dog-headed man calls you by your names, not mine.

You are indeed lucky to have found the Rune Stone, but your luck only extends to this point."

After saying that, he turned around and was about to flee into the distance.

But behind him, Su Ding, Li Jingan and Monkey were staring at his back with gloomy eyes.

The old man ran a few steps and suddenly fell down into the pile of bones.
