After listening to Noel's words, Su Mingan took another look at his exploration speed.

【55%.】

"No need." He said: "But you are free to take action to solve your mental state problem. If you want, you can go to the Royal City first."

"Really? But if you do this, you will be a lot slower than others... Why don't you give up those special strongholds and join me to advance the exploration speed." Noel glanced at Lu Shu and Lin Yin next to him: "Perfectly clearing the level must be the same as

This exploration degree is related, and you can win directly."

Lin Yin also said something.

"Su Mingan." She said: "If you trust Noel enough, his plan will be the best choice for both parties."

Su Mingan took a look at his exploration speed.

His gaze slowly moved down again.

"Noel." He said: "Let me confirm, you must do the victory route of Rule 06 and choose not to follow the team, right?"

Noel shrugged.

There was still some bloodshot eyes in his eyes, as if he hadn't gotten over the anger just now: "At least, I don't want to travel with such a teammate. He already wants to get rid of me. And I don't think he is willing to either.

See me all the time."

"Is it no longer possible to reconcile?" Lin Yin said anxiously from the side: "Now is not the time to be emotional. At least, at least we can't split up now."

"Everyone here has the ability to independently and perfectly pass the level." Noel said: "And if some of them want to target me, then there is no need for me to stay here for a long time. I cannot stay in a team that lacks trust. Moreover,

I have to find the reason that makes me emotionally abnormal. From this perspective, I can't follow the team."

Su Mingan didn't respond for a while.

"What's wrong?" Noel was a little surprised: "Su Mingan, if you trust me enough, you might as well do as I say. With the whole world witnessing, I will not break my promise and push the exploration level to 95

%, I will not continue."

Su Mingan looked away from the rules: "I know."

He walked towards the street: "Then you go first."

"I wish you good luck." Noel turned and left.

Heavy snow fell on his shoulders. He walked simply and quickly disappeared into the falling snow-colored streets.

"Let's go to the second area stronghold first." Su Mingan said to Lu Shu and Lin Yin.

While the two were walking in front, he quietly ordered Archerev to follow Noel.

His eyes returned to his rules panel again.

At the bottom of the exploration level, there is still a rule composed of small red letters.

…

[*(Identity·Su Lin) The only victory condition: At the end of "Sea Feast", no one will push the exploration degree to 100%.

When a player advances the progress to 80%, you will continue to know the opponent's position. Once the victory condition is revealed by others, you will directly fail.

Note: "No one" will include your teammates.】

…

"Ding dong!"

While walking on the road, Su Mingan suddenly heard a system prompt.

[The stronghold in the fourth area has been occupied by players!]

[The stronghold in District 12 has been occupied by players!]

[The stronghold in District 16 has been occupied by players!]

[The stronghold in District 18 has been occupied by players!]

…

"Twelve past ten in the morning, exactly ten minutes, is the time when the first batch of strongholds are occupied." Lu Shu looked at the time.

It seems that there are still undiscovered players in the fourth area stronghold, and they have been close to the core for ten minutes.

After a stronghold is occupied, it cannot be changed for one hour.

The few people were not in a hurry. They still followed the plan and went to the second area stronghold to check first.

After more than ten minutes' journey, several people quickly arrived at the second area stronghold.

This is a market. There are still some rotten vegetable leaves and broken cloth bags piled on the stalls. At this time, there are no vendors staying here. Instead, there are more than fifty soul hunters surrounding the place. There are so many people, like

A human wall completely protected the crystal.

These soul hunters are all NPCs who have been confirmed not to be players after investigation. The specific method of investigation is to ask about their background and past, or to find familiar people to confront them. In this way, players who have no character memory will be exposed.

.

Of course, this approach may leave some people untouched, but most players have already been filtered out by these teams.

When Su Mingan arrived here, he saw a gleaming three-meter-high red crystal located in the center of the market. Its brilliance was so bright that it could be easily seen from a long distance away.

Su Mingan did not approach, but just let Lin Yin and Lu Shu pass by. He estimated that his identity had been exposed to the soul hunters, so it was better to let Lin Yin and Lu Shu, two serious soul hunters, get close to these soul hunters.

After Lin Yin showed his identification, he successfully passed through the human wall and stood next to the crystal for ten minutes.

When the time reaches twelve twenty, the system prompt pops up.

[The stronghold in Area 2 has been successfully occupied by players!]

At the same time, the points of Su Mingan's team also began to change. After the number 0, an illusory +10 appeared.

This stronghold, if it has not changed hands, will provide them with 10 points every hour.

While Lin Yin was standing here, there were some people acting strangely around him, who seemed to be players. They were squatting on high buildings around the market and observing, but no one took action.

They also know who is in the team coming now. No one will take this as a standout.

Among them, a wealthy businessman poked his head out tremblingly from the second floor of a small building.

"That's Su Lin." He looked at Su Ming'an standing next to the crystal and said softly.

Next to him, a middle-aged man wearing black clothes and holding a card suddenly appeared.

"He has taken control of the soul hunting camp... Is this also Princess Tulip's order?" The wealthy businessman looked at the middle-aged man: "You are an SS-level soul hunter in the royal city. You must have the strength to defeat him. Since you can't let him get it,

Victory, why don’t you take action?”

The middle-aged man smiled.

The cards were spinning in his fingers, his expression a little careless.

"...I can't take action, at least, it's not the time yet."

"Why?" The wealthy businessman was a little anxious.

"You don't have to worry. Su Lin is so arrogant and trying to control the situation. Of course, something will come to deal with him." The middle-aged man said.

"Is there 'something'?"

"That's right." A light flashed in the man's eyes:

“Have you ever heard of the ‘principle of reciprocity’?”

…

After occupying the second area, several people quickly rushed to the fourth area.

"No suspicious person has been found near here." S-class soul hunter Christie shrugged: "Although the newly appointed soul hunter ordered us to guard this place, the people near here are all my lovely colleagues. I can't be among them.

Find some 'suspicious' colleagues."

"...Then let everyone evacuate to a distance of fifteen meters." Lu Shu said immediately.

He knew that the sudden occupation of the fourth area could only be caused by a player who got into the crowd of soul hunters and behaved no different from NPCs.

Since it is impossible to pull it out, everyone can only stay back. As long as it is away from the surrounding position of the core of the stronghold, the player hiding in the NPC will not be able to occupy the stronghold.

"Why should I listen to you? I'm a new A-level soul hunter. Although your abilities have been proven in the past few days of missions, you still don't have enough power to order me..." Christie laughed.

, just about to say a few words, he heard Ying's voice coming from the communicator.

"Do as he says." Shadow said.

Christie shrugged: "Okay. Since the new soul hunter has said so..."

He ordered the soul hunters to stay back and gradually move away from the core position.

"We'll come back in an hour," Lu Shu said.

He immediately left here with Lin Yin and rushed towards the Sixth District stronghold.

Christie's voice came from behind:

"I don't understand at all why the newly appointed soul hunting leader wants to get involved in this matter. Obviously the soul hunting side has not participated in a sea feast for decades..."
