241: Ackerman, what are you doing?

“That’s strange, where is he?”

Akman turned to look behind him.

He found that the three people who had just rejected his proposal were still there, but the veteran Sara was nowhere to be seen.

The air in Baksh at night was still hot and dry, and under the cover of darkness, the surroundings were eerily quiet.

Suddenly, an ominous premonition rose in Akman’s heart.

“He just said he was going to pee, why isn’t he back yet?”

“This old man couldn’t have run into trouble, could he? Why is he taking so long?”

“No way, he probably has kidney problems. He’s an old man, cut him some slack.”

At this, the other three exchanged smiles.

Only Akman vigilantly observed his surroundings, looking for any clues.

“Something’s wrong. He wouldn’t be out of touch for this long…”

However, just as Akman was warily observing his surroundings,

He glanced at the nearby manhole cover and was instantly astonished!

During the time he had been observing the surroundings, the manhole cover to the west of Blue Tune Mountain City had been half-opened!

Akman was certain that during this period, no one, neither GTI agents nor other Asala Soldiers, had come near!

It was even more impossible for someone to open the manhole cover right under his nose!

“What’s going on?!”

Akman shouted in shock.

“Akman, what are you doing?!”

“You scared the hell out of me!”

“Ow, what are you doing?”

The three people beside him were startled by his sudden shout and all complained.

“Look at the manhole cover!”

Akman quickly pointed to the half-opened manhole cover in front of them, beckoning to the others to come closer.

However.

Next, something even more unexpected happened to Akman!

When he looked back again, the manhole cover in front of him had been completely put back in place!

The situation before his eyes was as if what he had just seen was an illusion!

“What… what’s going on?”

“Akman, are you too stressed? You seem a bit neurotic.”

“Yeah, you haven’t been resting well lately, have you? Go back and get a good night’s sleep after work tonight.”

“If you have insomnia, I know a good place in an alley in the city. I’ll take you there tonight to have some fun!”

The few people spoke idly.

However, at this moment, Akman was no longer in the mood to listen to them.

“No, I am absolutely certain that this manhole cover was opened just now!”

Hearing this, the three people beside him scoffed.

Brother, are you kidding? So many people were keeping an eye on every little movement around here just now, and not a single person was seen. How could someone have come to search the manhole cover?

If it wasn’t a person, could it be a ghost?

“How are you so sure?”

“I remember the direction the manhole cover’s pattern was facing. Come over and look with me!”

Akman said, and was the first to rush out.

To avoid the worst possible scenario, when he placed the supplies in the manhole cover this time, he also took special care to remember the position corresponding to the pattern on the manhole cover.

If someone had searched the manhole cover, he would know at a glance.

However.

When he approached the manhole cover and saw the direction of the pattern on it, he suddenly began to doubt himself.

The pattern was in the same direction as when he placed the supplies, meaning no one had searched this manhole cover.

Was he really hallucinating?

However, before he could think carefully,

Suddenly, a young and unfamiliar voice came from behind them.

“So you were hiding here…”

“Who?! Who’s speaking?!”

“Damn it! Am I hallucinating too?!”

The few people quickly turned their heads, but saw no one.

A strong fear swept through everyone’s hearts, and then only the keen-eyed Akman saw a figure slowly emerge from the darkness not far away.

“Enemy spotted!”

“Something’s happening!”

Akman immediately became alert, raising the M870 shotgun in his hand.

However, before he could shoot, the figure rushed towards them like a ghost.

With a flash of white light, the other three Asala Soldiers instantly blacked out and lost consciousness.

Only Akman saw the incoming figure: dressed in a set of Asala Soldier armor, an East Asian face, and holding a gleaming dagger.

“You…”

Akman was about to speak, but his lips trembled uncontrollably.

To instantly take down three people with just a dagger, this was definitely not something an ordinary GTI agent could do!

The problem was!

In his eyes, this person’s appearance was so unfamiliar!

It wasn't Dragon, it wasn't Red Wolf, it wasn't Hacker Claw!

It was an ordinary person, a young man with an East Asian face!

This was what made him feel the most terrified!

Whoosh—!

The person said nothing, throwing a flying knife, and Akman’s vision instantly went black.

......

“I didn’t expect Machine Bro to learn how to ambush people.”

After dealing with the four Asala Soldiers, Xiao Yun put away his family heirloom small knife and examined their equipment.

These Asala Soldiers were all wearing Tier 2 gear, and their weapons had no attachments, looking very poor.

If Lu Xueqing were here, Xiao Yun would have asked her to search their backpacks.

But with his own luck, he might as well forget it.

“Sigh, this round is so poor.”

Xiao Yun silently sighed.

He was still completely unaware of the Asala Soldiers’ actions just now, and the fear in Akman’s eyes.

In Xiao Yun’s eyes, he had merely encountered a few Machine Bro whom he easily defeated while invisibly searching for manhole cover supplies.

For him, the only reward for killing Machine Bro was the gold coins dropped by their skills.

However, what displeased Xiao Yun was that...

He had searched manhole covers all along the way this round, but the most valuable supplies inside were only two two-slot Dragon Teeth.

As for the other little gold and little red items, Xiao Yun returned them to their original places and re-covered the manhole covers to prevent them from being discovered by the Asala Soldiers.

“Almost done searching, let’s go back.”

Saying that, Xiao Yun moved his thoughts, instantly activated his invisibility skill, and hurried towards the Museum.

......

“Current Location: Bakeshi - Royal Museum - Abandoned Exhibition Hall.”

“Current Drop Rate: Classified”

“Current Game End Time: 6 minutes 21 seconds”

“Hint: Please complete evacuation before time runs out!”

“There really is loot here!”

Inside the Abandoned Exhibition Hall.

As soon as Zhang Yu broke open the door, Lu Xueqing quickly slipped inside.

However, before she could open other containers, she saw a slender golden object shimmering in the glass display case!
