Battling with Air
Chapter 6
At night, Hatake Kakashi lurked in the alley next to the hotel.
Not long ago, Uchiha Shisui, who held the title of "The Strongest of the Uchiha", disappeared without a trace.
After investigating, all the suspects pointed to Uchiha Shisui, the son of the Uchiha Clan Leader, Uchiha Itachi.
According to the evidence, before Shisui disappeared, the last person to see him was Uchiha Itachi.
Although there was no conclusive evidence, Shisui and the Clan Leader had disagreements more than once. In terms of motive, there was still a possibility.
But thinking about it carefully, Uchiha Shisui was the strongest fighter of the Uchiha Clan. It would be too irrational to give up just because of disagreements.
This was definitely not a decision made by a shrewd person like Uchiha Fugaku.
So, what exactly happened?
"Squeak —!"
Bats?
Hatake Kakashi, who was lurking in the alley, subconsciously waved the odachi in his hand. The oncoming bats were cut in two.
After a twist, they split into two new bats.
A fierce wind came from behind. In a flash, he blocked the odachi, but his ribs suffered a heavy blow.
Hatake Kakashi felt a sharp pain in his neck. He was pinned against the wall by his neck. The sharp edge of the odachi pierced his skin.
— — He wanted to kill him!
"Shisui!"
Hatake Kakashi shouted at the person in horror.
The odachi stopped, but the cold blade did not withdraw.
Hatake Kakashi's miserable appearance was reflected in the scarlet Sharingan's eyes.
Dark red blood dripped to the ground.
"Who are you? Why have you been following us? You even know my name."
There was only one person here. He remembered that this white-haired youth had a companion with a watermelon head.
Sure enough, wasn't it a chance encounter in the black market?
"What do you mean?
Don't you recognize me? "
Hatake Kakashi was shocked when he saw Shisui's cold eyes. He confirmed that Shisui was the one who wanted to kill him.
Hey, hey, hey, this joke is too big!
"You are Uchiha Shisui!"
Uchiha?
He had no impression of it.
Shisui didn't say anything. He seemed to be waiting for more evidence.
Hatake Kakashi had no doubt that if he used the Substitution Technique to escape, it would mean that the battle had officially begun.
As for him, he had no chance of winning. He would die.
"Even if you don't recognize me, you should at least recognize this eye."
Shisui frowned and took off the man's forehead protector, revealing the covered eye.
It was an eye just like his, with a scarlet pupil and three magatama eyes.
While the two of them were silently confronting each other, Allen was sleeping soundly.
After relaxing for a long time, Allen had a dream.
In the dream, he was woken up by his mother and went to meet his blind date.
Just like in the photo, it was a very beautiful girl. They felt like old friends at first sight and talked happily. The other party even took the initiative to invite him to a hotel to have an in-depth conversation.
They couldn't wait to kiss each other and lay down on the big bed of the hotel. Just as he was about to take off his pants, he touched the soft lace hem.
He looked down and saw that he was wearing a Lolita style dress???
— — F * ck!
Along with his emotions, the boiling flames exploded. Unable to withstand the sudden increase in temperature, the glass of the window shattered. At the same time, the whole room exploded into a sea of fire.
The flames of Lord Allen?
Shisui threw Hatake Kakashi down without hesitation and quickly jumped to the window of the third floor of the hotel.
It's over, it's over, it's over!
After waking up from the nightmare, Allen looked at the room that had turned into a sea of fire. He hurriedly gathered everything that was still intact and stuffed them into the space. Shisui just happened to jump in from the window.
He pulled him and activated a teleportation spell to escape.
"Advanced Teleportation"! "
It was not until he appeared at the edge of a pond in the forest three miles away that Allen breathed a sigh of relief. He wiped the sweat off his forehead and jumped into the pond.
After a while, the pond bubbled like a hot spring and a pile of dead fish and prawns floated up.
Unlike the Undead who couldn't be too emotional, in the game setting, demons were a relatively emotional race. Emotions like anger would make their power uncontrollable and affect the outside world.
If they didn't control it in time, it would be out of control. In the state of anger, all the abilities of demons would be increased by 20%. This was a very scary bonus.
But in return, their IQ would be reduced by 20%.
You're wrong, it's a drop in IQ!!!
Allen often complained to Momoga that this kind of anger would make him burn. He wasn't going to die, this was simply forcing him to cultivate his character!
After poisoning the fish in the pond, Allen climbed ashore on all fours and pulled out a cloak to wear.
Even if there were no outsiders, he was still outside. He wasn't an exhibitionist.
"Lord Allen."
Shisui saw Allen come ashore and helped him to a nearby tree.
After the cooling of the cold water in the late autumn pond, Allen's body temperature had dropped. It was not as hot as before.
"Don't call me Lord, I've said many times, just call me Allen."
Waving his hand weakly, Allen had a headache.
Just because of the shock and anger of a dream, he almost blew up the entire hotel. He was now only afraid.
When the feeling of anger rose, it was as if there was something invisible rapidly expanding it, making him want to destroy everything around him.
In order to suppress the desire to destroy, he used almost all of his usual self-control.
Allen couldn't help but smile bitterly. He should have paid attention when he jumped into the river on the first day. This 20% IQ reduction was too real.
"Fortunately, I ran fast." He didn't have the money to pay for the hotel.
While trying to find some joy in his misery, Allen exhausted himself to find a convenient shirt and pants to wear. He didn't want to see a skirt for a while.
"Lord Allen … What just happened?" Shisui awkwardly looked away, not looking at Allen changing clothes.
Of course, Allen wouldn't say that he was scared to death by the nightmare of cross-dressing. He just said that there was a mistake when strengthening a spell, and vaguely said that it was perfunctory.
"Greater Healing."
A cool feeling on his wrist subsided the burning sensation.
Allen put down Shisui's hand and helplessly reminded him: "Next time you encounter this kind of thing, remember to say it."
Fortunately, he strengthened Shisui's race before. Otherwise, with his unbalanced control of power, when he grabbed Shisui's hand when he teleported, he would have melted Shisui's hand.
"Okay."
In the end, they could only sleep in the wild.
There were no stars tonight, and it was autumn. It was most likely going to rain in the latter half of the night.
Allen flipped through the list of accessories. Due to the extreme degree of freedom in the game, although the game went downhill due to the imbalance in the later stages of the game, as the founder of the DMMO-RPG genre, YGGDRASIL could be said to be the overlord of the game market in the early stages.
Among them, there was also a large number of casual players.
Therefore, in YGGDRASIL's pay-to-win events, in addition to equipment and items, would also give out some interesting special pendants for casual players.
For example, there could be special effects, beautiful interactive items, and other gadgets.
Allen's main goal was to buy items, but the number of gifts and items that were given when the game was full had accumulated over the years. Not to mention, in the last few years, the game also knew that players were leaving, and in order to make money, the activities became more and more attractive.
However, due to the frequent pay-to-win activities, aesthetic fatigue in the market, the imbalance in the early stages of the game, and the unfairness brought by the pay-to-win items, the game still came to an end.
The new game had already attracted a large number of old players with the second generation's publicity.
The brother who gave the account to him in the past had long been doing well in another game.
Allen had taken over the account for almost seven years. As a player ranked at the top of the pay-to-win list, he had naturally obtained the qualifications for the second generation of the game. It was indeed better and more balanced, just as the publicity said.
However, he still chose to return to YGGDRASIL.
To put it bluntly, in the end, he still spent money and ranked because he could not bear to part with the touching feelings that the game had brought to him.
He wasn't young anymore, and several of his childhood friends had gotten married one after another.
Therefore, he just wanted to use this method to bid farewell to the craziest years of his life.
Perhaps he would still play games in the future, but those things of the past would not be there anymore.
Now …
"Found it."
He clicked on the interactive waist pendant, and a gorgeous tent unfolded.
It even came with a small fence.
Shisui had previously read a catalog of magical items that Allen had given him. There were all kinds of magical items recorded in it, so he was not surprised.
There were only two rolls of blankets in the tent. They were originally meant for you to take out and show off when you were looking at the scenery in the game. Although the details were gorgeous and the material was good, there was nothing practical about it other than blocking the wind and rain.
Allen released several Three-eyed Magic Wolves and Evil Crows to patrol the area. He laid in the tent weakly. "I can only spend the night outside again."
He actually preferred the feeling of having a roof, but summoning the Devil's Fortress was too much of a waste of his talents.
After experiencing that kind of dream, Allen did not feel sleepy at all. He was so scared that he was wide awake.
He simply took out the mission book that he had previously retrieved and carefully flipped through it.
Shisui felt that Allen's mood was a little low. His eyes inadvertently glanced at the pond that Allen had stayed in before, and an idea came to him.
Allen did not flip through the information for long before he smelled the aroma of grilled fish. He looked up and saw that Shisui had made a circle of stones around the fire. A string of cleaned fish was stuck in the cracks of the stones.
Looking at the hot spring that he had almost boiled into, Alan rubbed his nose and shamelessly moved closer to the hot spring that was still bubbling and bubbling with half-dead fish floating in the water.
"I have seasoning!"
In YGGDRASIL, cooking was also a skill that could be learned. High-level cooking masters could make dishes that strengthened attributes for a short period of time, and could be stacked with potions from the shop. The materials could be obtained through gathering skills. It was a necessity for dungeons, and was also very popular in the wild.
Allen was a high-level cooking master, but he had not experimented with this skill yet.
He also did not have enough materials to experiment.
Allen did not dare to move after he tried to secretly increase the flame and directly burned two fish.
Although Shisui did not say anything, Allen was a little embarrassed when he was stared at by those quiet eyes.
He simply gave the seasoning to Shisui and continued to plan to make money.
He really did see something interesting.
This was a joint commission from several shipping companies, and the price was very high, five million silver.
This price was also very high in the Ninja Village for an A-level mission.
At that time, Allen was attracted by the price because this mission was categorized in the investigation column.
The content of the commission was to investigate a sea area and solve the problem of the "Sea Demon" entrenched in the sea area.
The description of the mission was not very detailed. It roughly said that more than three years ago, there was a problem in the sea area on the busiest route of these shipping companies.
There was a large area of fog, and as long as one got close to the fog, communication would be interfered with, and compasses and compasses would also fail.
No one knew what was in the fog, but when the wind was calm, one could hear the sound of ethereal singing from a distance.
But the ships and people who went in never came out.
As a result, the shipping companies had to circumvent the sea area, which increased a lot of losses for no reason.
The older generation of boatmen said that it was the legendary Sea Demon, who used singing to cause people to hit the reef and die.
But there were no reefs or dangerous whirlpools in the sea area, and there was even a simple island for supplies, and there were high-quality herbs growing on the island, so there had never been an accident before.
So the shipping company on that route submitted a mission to the Ninja Village to investigate the island.
Obviously, those ninjas did not complete the mission, but it was not without gain.
The fog on the sea was not always there, it would disappear on the day of the full moon, revealing the original appearance of the island.
As for the current situation on the island, it was the target of the investigation.
It was a bit interesting, not only was it not eye-catching, but it was also a lot of money.
But I don't know what the situation is like inside, maybe I can go and see.
"Here."
The aroma of the grilled fish was handed over.
Allen took it and couldn't wait to take a bite. Shisui wanted to remind Allen that it was very hot, but then he thought that this temperature was just like water for him, and the other party really ate with relish.
"Delicious!"
Allen quickly finished the first fish and stuffed the mission book in his hand to Shisui. "Let's go to Bibo Town, there is a suitable mission there."
Shisui agreed and remembered the strange white-haired youth from before.
