Accompanied by the final countdown, the world in front of Xu Yinian quickly collapsed into countless fragments, and the intense red color instantly occupied the field of vision. The sky and the earth were connected into a line, and the mechanical announcement seemed to come from a distant place, but it was very clear:
[Red time is ten o'clock, the player has completed the task ahead of time and is about to leave the paradise. ]
Boom—
Xu Yinian suddenly opened his eyes.
Boom, boom—
The grandfather clock placed in the corner rang three times at exactly ten o'clock, and the moment he returned to reality, bright light pierced his eyes. There was a strong smell of blood floating in the villa, seeing the surrounding scene clearly, Xu Yinian's pupils shrank.
The corpses of monsters were all around, and the blood flowing all over the ground even dyed the floor of the villa at the intelligence point red. Xu Yinian turned his head abruptly, his heart was in his throat, and he was slightly relieved to see Yu Huai sleeping soundly, but when he noticed other sleeping monsters, Xu Yinian's expression suddenly froze.
Nan Zhi, Xie Qihan, Ni Yin...
Everyone fell into a deep sleep, and he didn't even recognize any of these dead monsters on the ground!
The dazzling light blade knocked down the decorative lamp hanging from the ceiling, and not far away, two monsters wrestled together, making a loud crash. In the next second, one of the monsters rushed towards them, and the white light in his hand contained extremely terrifying power.
Under the strong light, Xu Yinian could clearly see the seam-like mark on the right side of the opponent's cheek.
This is actually a Qiluo! But how could Qiluo's ability be light? !
Before he had time to think about it, Xu Yinian immediately released the thunder and lightning. Unexpectedly, Qi Luo glanced at him, as if seeing something that shocked him, the demon power instantly surged, and he attacked the sleeping Yu Huai more quickly!
In desperation, Xu Yinian threw himself in front of Yu Huai and took the attack for him. The severe pain from his back made Xu Yinian's eyes burst into bloodshot eyes, and a large amount of blood gushed out of his mouth immediately. Even so, he still defended Yu Huai tightly. Qi Luo wanted to attack again, but she stopped when she saw this.
In a trance, Xu Yinian heard another monster sneer, and the charming female voice gradually merged with the announcement in the game world. Xu Yinian's expression changed slightly, but the pain made him unable to think. He only saw several fox tails behind the banshee from the corner of his vision.
The fox demon attacked Qi Luo who was attacking Yu Huai, and they fought several times in the blink of an eye. The two tyrannical demon forces collided fiercely, and they wanted to kill each other. Xu Yinian hesitated for a while, and grabbed Yu Huai's arm with both hands, letting his whole body weight rest on his back. This action caused the wound on his back to tear again, and Xu Yinian wiped off the smudges around his mouth. Blood, seize the time to carry Yu Huai on his back.
Taking advantage of the fight between the two monsters, Xu Yinian ran to the side door of the villa with Yu Huai on his back. Qi Luo didn't seem to want to let them go, but was stopped by the fox demon.
Seeing that the fox demon refused to give an inch, Qi Luo angrily said: "Get out of the way! When he wakes up, it will not be so easy to kill him!"
"...you actually want to kill Yu Huai in this way." The fox demon's eyes widened when he heard the words, and his offensive became more and more fierce under extreme anger, but disappointment and pain could not be hidden between his brows. Her voice trembled, as if she was driven into a desperate situation, "You know that once the game is started, my life will be linked with all players. If you kill Yu Huai, I will die too!"
Qi Luo sneered and said, "What about you? Killing Xu Yinian wasn't part of the plan."
The fox demon didn't expect him to see through her plan at a glance-grafting the plan originally used for Yu Huai to Xu Yinian: she specially adjusted the difficulty of Xu Yinian's game, let him leave the spiritual world one step ahead of everyone else, and at the same time She disconnects. At this time, Xu Yinian is no longer a "player", and the others are deeply trapped in the spiritual world. When he is isolated and helpless, killing him is easy.
Things have come to this, the fox demon looked at Qi Luo's cold and mocking appearance, and the long-suppressed anger could no longer be contained. Her charming face was distorted by jealousy, and her voice was bitter: "Yes, I want to kill him! So what?! Didn't he just change his life with you? If you need someone to help you cover up your life, I will do it too. Can!"
"Your Bai Yeming? I don't like it." Qi Luo remained unmoved, and attacked her vitals. Seeing that the fox demon was agitated, she deliberately stimulated her, "If you want to help me Don't get in the way, let me kill Yu Huai."
The fox demon's eyes were about to burst, and he roared angrily: "—what do you think of me?!"
…
…
Xu Yinian ran out with Yu Huai on his back, speeding up as much as possible. The severe pain on his back made his face pale, and his breathing became more and more rapid during the running process. He tried to gather the supernatural power, but he coughed repeatedly when he failed. Energy consumption becomes a huge burden at this time.
Xu Yinian was dizzy, he took a deep breath to calm himself down.
Going on like this is not an option, even if the two monsters in the villa don't chase them out, he will be seriously injured and Yu Huai will be unconscious, sooner or later he will get into trouble. You have to find a hiding place first, and wait for Yu Huai to wake up from the game.
The laughter of monsters could be faintly heard in the distance, the shadow of the market came into view, and Xu Yinian's eyes gradually stopped.
He remembered that there are red-light districts in the markets in every district, which is a suitable place to hide.
Xu Yinian took off Yu Huai's coat and put it on himself, covering the bloody wound on his back. Fearing that Yu Huai would be recognized by others, Xu Yinian supported him and made him lean on him with his head down. He patted his face, and his cheeks turned a little bloody, and then he pretended to be drunk and supported Yu Huai to walk forward.
Xu Yinian walked around the shouting monsters in the market all the way, trying to reduce his presence as much as possible. A small building with red walls was reflected in the field of vision, and it was also lit with ambiguous pink lights in broad daylight. Seeing the thinly dressed banshee leaning lazily at the door, Xu Yinian paused and walked towards the small building go.
During this time period, there are not many guests who come to have fun. As soon as they stepped through the door, the banshee greeted her with a smile: "Little handsome guy, is your friend feeling well?"
"He's drunk." Xu Yinian grabbed Yu Huai's shoulders tightly, and met the banshee's eyes. Seeing his appearance clearly, the banshee's eyes lit up, and her tone was a little enthusiastic: "How can you drink like this in broad daylight? Then find someone who will take good care of your friend, how about you? What kind do you like? "
The surrounding banshees all looked over upon hearing the words, they laughed and laughed, their burning eyes fell on Xu Yinian, and some of them even took the initiative to say: "I haven't slept with a human yet, what do you think of me? "
Xu Yinian's back was in unbearable pain, and he didn't care about the embarrassment at this time, and said to the group of banshees, "I'm with my friend."
The banshees were silent for a moment, and then they suddenly realized that they looked at him differently: "Oh... so you want to play this."
"I just said, why are the two of you always leaning against each other?"
"Aline! Come to pick up the guests! They want to play together!"
Amidst the laughter of the banshees, a cat demon walked over. She was charming, wearing a suspender skirt with high slits, full breasts, slender waist, and a pair of long snow-white legs under the skirt. She winked at Xu Yinian. Xu Yinian supported Yu Huai, his feet were trembling, and he said without hesitation: "It's just you, let's go."
He spoke in a hurry, but because of his outstanding appearance and clean demeanor, this anxious look made all the banshees laugh. Someone tugged Xu Yinian's arm: "Hey, why don't you add me, and I won't charge you."
Before Xu Yinian refused, Arlene quit: "No! It's rare to meet such an eye-catching guest, so don't compete with me."
The banshees seemed to listen to her very much, and they all smiled and said nothing more. Arlene took a step forward: "Shall I help you support him?"
"No need," Xu Yinian raised his chin, "Just go ahead and lead the way."
Arlene led him all the way to the second floor, and after entering the room, Xu Yinian immediately locked the door. Fearing that she would see the clue, he helped Yu Huai to bed, and covered him with quilt and pillow on purpose. After doing everything, Xu Yinian's strength was almost exhausted. He sat on the edge of the bed panting, and said to Arlene: "My friend is very drunk, and I'm not feeling well. Let's take a rest. You don't need to do anything Yes, the money will still be given.”
Arlene's eyes fell on his face, and she saw that he was really not energetic. Not only his cheeks were pale, but also his lips were light in color. She licked her lips and said in an ambiguous tone, "You don't need to work hard, just enjoy yourself."
As she talked, she walked to the bed, held Xu Yinian's arm and squeezed it lightly: "It's all here, why don't you do nothing? Others will laugh at me if they find out..."
Arlene pretended to lean into his arms, smelling the fragrance of flowers on her body, Xu Yinian shivered and pushed her away suddenly, but Arlene grabbed him and said coquettishly, "What are you doing?"
"..." Xu Yinian smiled stiffly, realizing that his strength after being seriously injured was not as good as that of a banshee in the boneyard.
Seeing his uneasy expression, Arlene teased half-truly, "What's wrong? Do you have any little secret?"
"No, I..." Xu Yinian's nerves tensed up, and he said quickly, "Then what, I haven't taken a shower yet, I'll come back after I take a shower."
Arlene was taken aback, and she let go of her hand dumbfounded: "I saw that you came from outside, you must be too particular."
Xu Yinian stood up and made a gesture to go to the bathroom. Unexpectedly, Arlene lifted the thin quilt covering Yu Huai's body with her backhand, and said naturally: "Then you go wash first, and I will play with your friend."
Xu Yinian turned pale with shock when he heard the words, turned around and rushed towards Yu Huai, and held down the hand that Arlene was trying to touch. Arlene interlocked fingers with Xu Yinian, and asked reproachfully, "Little handsome guy, don't you want to take a bath?"
Xu Yinian's scalp was numb, and he made up a random reason: "...he also needs to take a shower first, I'll go with him!"
After being rejected again and again, Arlene's complexion was already not very good-looking. Seeing him hugging the man's shoulders in an extremely intimate posture, as if he didn't even intend to let her see his face, Arlene turned a few corners in her mind. , suddenly enlightened, with a shocked and disgusted expression: "You can't be a couple, right?? Then why are you here, are you messing around?!"
The more she thought about it, the more something went wrong, and she immediately wanted to call someone in to deal with them. Xu Yinian hurriedly got up and tried to restrain Arlene, but he pulled the wound on his back. He hissed in pain, and his hands and feet limp on Yu Huai Seeing that Arlene was about to walk to the door, Xu Yinian was impatient, propped himself on the pillow and tried to get up again, but someone gently wrapped his arms around his shoulders.
"stop."
A deep and clear voice came from behind, Arlene turned her head and met a pair of special colored eyes.
The light in the room was dim, and the not-so-bright light source made those dark purple eyes look like deep pools. Such a unique pupil color completely revealed the identity of the other party.
This person is... Yu Huai? !
Her expression changed, she looked at the owner of those eyes in disbelief, and subconsciously obeyed the other party's instructions.
Seeing that he woke up, Xu Yinian's heart that had been hanging around finally fell to the ground. Yu Huai sat up, Xu Yinian was lying on his shoulders, so he leaned against him and sat up. The two were very close, Yu Huai smelled the blood on his body, and noticed Xu Yinian's bloodless face, Yu Huai reached out to hold his waist.
A mermaid-like spirit quietly appeared beside the pillow. Xu Yinian felt his blood-stained lower garment being lifted up carefully, and his cold palms moved up his back, gently covering the wound on his back. The tearing pain gradually eased, as if being caressed by warm water. Yu Huai squeezed the back of his neck with his free hand, as if trying to calm Xu Yinian's emotions.
Arlene looked at the intimate behavior of the two, and her previous guess was confirmed. No matter how upset she was, she dared not say anything on the surface. Yu Huai raised her eyes and looked at her: "Cooperate, and the money will be doubled for you."
Arlene's expression moved slightly, and just as she was about to agree with a smile, Yu Huai said, "Go to the bathroom and stay there, don't come out."
Arlene's unbroken smile disappeared, the corner of her mouth twitched, and she went into the bathroom without looking back. As soon as the bathroom door was closed, a translucent barrier rose at the same time. After confirming that Arlene couldn't hear their conversation, Yu Huai asked:
"Who hurt you?"
"How are you?"
They spoke almost at the same time, Xu Yinian was stunned, and Yu Huai replied first: "I'm fine, it took me a while to get out of the game. What about your injuries?"
"Let's not talk about that for now," Xu Yinian thought of the two monsters fighting together in the villa, and hurriedly said, "That Qi Luo appeared!"
The Qiluo clan was all extinct ten years ago, and a person wearing a Qiluo shell suddenly appeared, most likely the culprit behind the gathering of forces from all sides and massacring the ghost clan that the Great Elder and Xia Yan said.
The situation in the villa is very complicated, and since he woke up from the game, he faced Qi Luo's fierce attack directly, Xu Yinian didn't have time to think about it. Now that Yu Huai woke up, he quickly recounted the situation in the villa in as much detail as possible.
"It seems that we entered the 'game' because of the ghost of the fox demon." Yu Huai pondered for a moment, "The nine-tailed fox demon has a special ability, which can construct a spiritual world and pull targets within a certain range into it. The spiritual world All the rules are made by her, which is enough to trap people with weak willpower inside."
"She probably wanted to use this to kill someone, but Qi Luo's appearance interrupted her..." Xu Yinian was puzzled, "Why did Qi Luo do this?"
Yu Huai shook her head: "Qi Luo didn't interrupt her. Once the spiritual world is opened, it's not so easy to forcibly terminate it."
After a while, he seemed to think of something: "You just mentioned that Qi Luo tried to kill me?"
Seeing Xu Yinian nodded, Yu Huai said: "The spiritual world constructed by the fox demon is extremely fine, she can forcibly pull people into it without even touching the target. Such a powerful ability also has great restrictions, the game starts Afterwards, if the player is injured or killed by an external force attack in the real world, the fox demon will also suffer the same heavy damage."
"It's true that Qi Luo wants to kill me, and he also wants to kill the fox demon."
Xu Yinian slowly opened his eyes wide.
"According to your description, the strength of the fox demon and Qiluo is almost the same, but if Qiluo randomly kills one of the 'players' present, the situation will change immediately."
Yu Huai's tone was rarely anxious: "We must go back as soon as possible. Nan Zhi and the others are in a very dangerous situation."
