Chapter 22: The Villa on Jiuzhu Mountain
There were only a few good friends in Zhou Jiante's news feed, and after adding Wen Ren Huiyin, he set up an online reminder for her, so as soon as she came online, he would know.
Zhou Jian did not immediately contact Wen Ren Hui Yin, but waited for about ten minutes before dialing Wen Ren Hui Yin's number.
"Hello, is this Wen Huiyin? This is Zhou Jian."
"Well, shall we set off for Peng City?"
"I'm already in Peng City." Thinking about it, he's going to Hong Kong Island tomorrow, and Wen Ren Huiyin is also on Hong Kong Island. However, this matter is better not told to her, after all, this time going to Hong Kong Island isn't for fun.
"What are you doing now?"
"Upgraded, how about you?"
"Also leveling up, I'm at Ancient Tomb 9, where are you?"
"Uh... I'm in Skull Cave..." Zhou Jian replied somewhat awkwardly. Gu Mu Jiu is one of the places with the highest leveling efficiency in the current stage of "Shen Mo", of course, to level up there not only requires a high level but also good equipment, otherwise you'll be killed by monsters before you can even heal. Skull Cave, on the other hand, is a place for ordinary newbies to level up, and the speed of leveling up here is naturally not that fast.
"The Skull Cave upgrade is so slow, why don't you come to Ancient Tomb 9, I'll take you."
"No need, I'll just slow you down."
"It's okay, now it's just me and my cousin, I have a good relationship with her, just talk to her and that's it, only the two of us leveling up is very boring."
"Your elder brother has arrived."
"My older cousin has started a new game, he's going to check it out and accumulate some experience first, then when his level is high enough, he'll take us with him to play."
"Oh, when you pass by the new copy, remember to notify me, I can help a bit."
"Uh, okay, but our hopes of escaping through a copy are slim. When the time comes, you might have to sacrifice yourself with us."
"Haha, right, what's your account number? I'll return the money to you."
"Huh? You've got money already after just one day?"
"Yeah, lucky to have gotten some equipment sold."
"I'm not in a hurry, you have money to continue investing in the game as capital, and update your equipment."
"Tell me your account number, I have enough game capital."
"Alright..." Wen Ren Huiyin said her own account, she also knew Zhou Jian's character and didn't want to owe others.
Hanging up the day's news, Zhou Jian continued to level up. This was probably his last time leveling up in the Skull Cavern. From now on, with more money at hand, he wouldn't continue staying here.
Half an hour later, Zhou Jian successfully upgraded. As a hidden profession, the sum of his attribute points increased by 16 points, which is 4 points higher than ordinary professions. The increases were: Strength: 2, Agility: 6, Vitality: 2, Magic: 1, Spirit: 5. In contrast, an ordinary thief's spirit only increases by 1 point per level up.
There are only a few hidden professions that can be transferred at level 20, don't underestimate these 4 attribute points, they were added to the most critical place. Take Phantom Assassin as an example, if you transfer from Thief to Phantom Assassin at level 60, then the Phantom Assassin's agility will only be 60 at that time, and many skills of the Controller cannot be used, so agility can only become auxiliary. However, if Zhou Jian is upgraded to level 60, his agility will reach 220, and agility will become his killer.
Zhou Jian may not look impressive now, but as time passes, the advantages of his accumulated attributes will become more and more apparent. With his increasingly better equipment, he is bound to become a dazzling new star in the world of "Gods and Demons".
After getting offline, Zhou Jian took a shower and went straight to sleep. He needed to conserve his energy for tomorrow's trip to Hong Kong Island.
……
Hong Kong, one of the world's top ten cities, Asian financial center, with a natural deep-water port, was occupied by foreign powers in the late Qing Dynasty and returned to China at the end of the 20th century.
This is a paradise for shoppers, anything with a bit of fame, as long as you know about it, there's nothing you can't buy. This is a gathering place for the wealthy, people worth hundreds of millions, you don't dare say they're rich, maybe the middle-aged uncle sitting next to you eating ramen in a big restaurant is actually someone on the Forbes list.
This is Hong Kong, a dazzling city of desire, filled with the charm of bustling prosperity and endless wealth.
Kowloon's Nine Belly Mountain, originally known as Dog Belly Mountain, presumably the wealthy residents living on Dog Belly Mountain felt that this name was not elegant, so it was changed to Nine Belly Mountain (in Cantonese, nine and dog are homophones).
Although the mountain name is not elegant, this is indeed a feng shui treasure land on Hong Kong Island. The unique and majestic villas stand on the lush green peaks, with green trees, white walls, blue sky and red tiles, making people inevitably feel yearning and admiration.
The villas here are worth tens of millions at the low end and easily over 100 million at the high end. Those who live here are all business tycoons, entertainment celebrities or political stars.
The vehicles entering and leaving are in the tens of millions, with all sorts of luxury cars such as Porsche, Rolls-Royce, Bugatti Veyron, Ferrari, and others running around like fish crossing a river.
It's an honor to live here, it's a sense of satisfaction, and this sense of satisfaction is enough to drive countless girls crazy. As long as you report the address of Jiuzong Mountain, they will unhesitatingly sacrifice themselves for the sake of living here rather than for your sake.
Night falls, Jiuzong Mountain is like a dark green beast crouching, the villa area except for the lights of each household, everything is quiet.
Zhou Jian hid in the darkness, quietly approaching his target, a pure white villa, estimated to be worth over 100 million. Chu Qingyun's father's partner was not just a single company, Cloud Platform, he was already a billionaire before cooperating with Chu Qingyun, otherwise he wouldn't have had the capital to collaborate with her.
There were two black-clad bodyguards patrolling the entrance of the villa. Zhou Jian knew that they were just decorations, otherwise, if they had any skills at all, they wouldn't have been assigned to guard the gate.
The laws of Hong Kong are different from those in mainland China. Although owning a gun is illegal, it is legal to own a high imitation air gun (also known as a "harmony" gun). Although it's called an air gun, its power is not much less than that of a real gun. While it may not be fatal, it can certainly cause serious injury. If you're unlucky enough to get shot in the eye, you'll definitely go blind.
Zhou Jian guessed that the bodyguards would be equipped with gas guns, knives and other weapons, while some core bodyguards inside the villa might have real guns. Zhou Jian was fast, but not faster than bullets. If someone fired a cold shot, he wouldn't be able to get away with it.
And there are also two masters of ancient martial arts inside the villa, what would be the outcome if I were to compare with them?
Zhou Jian carefully observed the cameras around the villa, noting down each camera's scanning area. Then he climbed up the wall of the villa like a gecko and checked all the windows, which were all locked, even if some were open, they had protective bars, making it impossible to enter. It seemed that the only way in was through the door.
However, there were two bodyguards at the entrance. Although Zhou Jian could knock them down in an instant, doing so would inevitably alert the people inside the villa.
Zhou Jian waited patiently, sleeping all day to conserve his energy for tonight's battle.
At ten o'clock, a black Lincoln drove into the villa. Two lackluster bodyguards suddenly came to life and hastily ran to open the door. When the car door opened, a young man with a greasy face got out of the Lincoln.
