Gu Jiu finally felt a headache.
Since entering the game world, she has probably figured out how to pass the level. The key to passing the level is for the player to find the boss who issued the death notice and then kill him. Without the death notice, the death ending can be avoided naturally, and the player can pass the level.
But the problem is that the boss is the Ghost Emperor, the destructive force of a certain god, and is closely related to the game world. Once he is killed, the world will be destroyed.
She couldn't guarantee that when the game world was destroyed, the space channel would be opened in time to allow the players to leave. Even if it could be opened in time, she was afraid that the players would have physically collapsed due to the influence of the game world.
But if they don't kill the Ghost Emperor, they won't be able to pass the level and will be trapped in the death notice time.
Gu Jiu only had a headache for a while, but he quickly put it aside.
She looked at the Ghost Emperor opposite her. He was leaning there weakly, his figure no longer solid but a little thin. It was obvious that Lu Ji's angry attack just now had seriously injured him.
She was a little puzzled. "Why did you deliberately reveal your identity?"
After all, he didn't come here specially to expose Lu Ji's identity, right
The Ghost Emperor smiled, his smile was shy, and exactly the same as when Lu Ji usually smiled at her, which made Gu Jiu feel strange.
It seemed like there was suddenly a Lu Ji.
At this time, a cold and unhappy voice was heard: "Don't laugh!"
The Ghost Emperor snorted coldly, not afraid of him at all, and even said provocatively: "No matter how much you hate my existence, I am a part of you, with your consciousness and breath, loving what you love and hating what you hate."
Lu Ji's face turned pale. If he hadn't been worried that killing him would hurt Gu Jiu, he would have done it without hesitation.
He obviously hated the existence of the Ghost Emperor.
Perhaps this was why he had decided to abandon these destructive powers.
The Ghost Emperor ignored him and said to Gu Jiu: "Because I want to lead him to find me... Of course, the biggest reason is that I want to be with you."
"dream!"
Lu Ji was furious, but when Gu Jiu glanced over, his angry expression disappeared instantly. He lowered his head like a little wife, and sat there stiffly, not daring to look her in the eye.
After all, he did deceive her.
Although her identity was discovered when he followed her to the real world, he didn't say much except telling her that he was the Lord of the Dark Palace and had some demigod enemies, because she didn't ask much.
She didn't know that he was the last god in the universe, a god born for destruction, born to stand against all living beings.
Which human being would like such a god born for destruction
The Ghost Emperor stared at Gu Jiu and whispered, "If only you came to this world, I really want to keep you with me."
"Do you have Aji's memory?" Gu Jiu asked in surprise.
The Ghost Emperor smiled and said, “I don’t have his memories, but I have his feelings, so when I saw you for the first time, I…” He coughed lightly, feeling a little embarrassed.
The shy look is exactly the same.
Gu Jiu finally understood why the first death notice he saw when he came in was "ghost marriage". He was indeed a part of Lu Ji. He thought the same as him. He would strike first and then make excuses. As long as he was sure of something, he would not let it go.
"One last question, what did you bring Ah Ji here for?"
The Ghost Emperor was silent for a moment. He looked at Lu Ji and said, "He knows."
Gu Jiu turned to look at Lu Ji, "A Ji?"
Lu Ji didn't say anything. He suddenly pulled Gu Jiu up, cut open the space with the black sword, and quickly left this space.
The Ghost Emperor's voice sounded from behind, "In two days, I will personally come to welcome Madam to Youdu City. This is a rule that cannot be changed."
**
They returned to the arch bridge of the ancient town again.
Under the arch bridge is a quietly flowing river with low houses on both sides of the river. The noisy sounds of life can be heard and from time to time groups of tourists pass by.
Gu Jiu smelled a faint smell of blood in the air. The smell was so faint that it was difficult for ordinary people to detect it.
Following the direction from which the smell of blood came, Gu Jiu saw Chai Yingying and Jiang Ze lying on the shore, motionless. Their position was in a blind spot, so no one noticed them.
She was startled and walked over quickly.
Gu Jiu checked on the two people and found that they had fallen into coma, bleeding from all seven orifices, their faces were pale, and their breath was very weak, as if they were about to die at any time. Their condition was similar to when she vomited blood before.
It should be affected by the injury of the Ghost Emperor.
At that time, the Ghost Emperor was almost killed by Lu Ji's black flame. The world was on the verge of destruction, and the players in the game world were the most affected.
"Aji, do you have any more blood pills?" Gu Jiu asked.
Lu Ji silently took out two blood pills and stuffed them into Chai Yingying and Jiang Ze's mouths.
The blood pill melted in their mouths, and after a few minutes, the gloomy faces of the two men eased a lot.
Half an hour later, the two finally woke up.
They sat up and looked around in confusion. Their sights fell on Gu Jiu and Lu Ji who were sitting on the rocks on the shore. The two of them sat there quietly without communicating. The atmosphere was a little weird.
Chai Yingying and her husband had just woken up and were not feeling well, so they did not notice anything unusual between the two of them.
However, they did notice the tourists passing by, and the bustling atmosphere that was unique to the ancient town, rather than the cold Netherworld River. They left at the announced time.
Realizing this, they both relaxed.
As soon as I relaxed, I felt very uncomfortable and couldn't help but think of what happened before I lost consciousness.
"Miss, what happened?" Chai Yingying asked, covering her chest.
Gu Jiu said: "Shouldn't I be the one asking you this?"
“We…” Chai Yingying recalled her experience before she fell into a coma, her face somewhat terrified, “We were fighting those ghosts on the boat in the Styx, and suddenly we were suppressed by some force… Oh, it was very similar to the suppression of players when the world was on the verge of collapse.”
Jiang Ze said hesitantly: "It shouldn't be, right?"
The world is fine and nothing unexpected has happened. How could it suddenly be on the verge of collapse
The two looked at Gu Jiu, "Miss, what about you?"
"We also encountered it." Gu Jiu said, "Fortunately, Ah Ji brought a lot of blood pills, so it's okay now."
Chai Yingying and Jiang Ze also noticed the changes in their bodies. Their injuries healed quickly and they realized that Gu Jiu had fed them blood pills. Needless to say, these blood pills were expensive, as they were bought with points.
"Miss, you are really a good friend!"
Chai Yingying was moved and hugged Gu Jiu. Suddenly she thought of something and quickly let her go. She glanced at Lu Ji and found that this man was not like he used to be. He would immediately give her a death look as soon as she touched him. Instead, he looked ahead silently...
There's something strange!
"Let's go back to the inn first." Gu Jiu stood up and asked them to leave.
On the way back, Chai Yingying and Jiang Ze wanted to transfer the points for purchasing the blood pill to Lu Ji. This thing was too expensive and they didn't want to take advantage of it.
Lu Ji did not accept it and walked silently beside Gu Jiu.
The two finally noticed that the atmosphere between Gu Jiu and Lu Ji was strange. They thought they were arguing, but it was not easy to persuade them in front of them, so they could only ask about what happened at the time of the death announcement.
"Miss, how did we leave the death notice time?"
Gu Jiu said: "It was Ah Ji who broke it."
The two of them showed no surprise on their faces at the same time. In their hearts, Lu Ji was an unfathomable boss, as if no matter how dangerous the situation was, it would not be difficult for him. Of course, the same was true for Gu Jiu. Anyway, no matter who it was or what he did, they would not be surprised.
After returning to the Xiaoqiao Inn, as soon as they went upstairs, the four of them keenly smelled blood. Considering their previous experience, they went directly into the rooms of other players.
There are a total of six players remaining in the Bridge Inn.
The conditions of these six players were the same as Chai Yingying and Jiang Ze. They were bleeding from all seven orifices, their faces were pale, and they were dying. Although they were not dead, they would not be able to wake up for ten days or half a month without medicine.
Seeing Lu Ji taking out the blood pill to feed them, Chai Yingying and Jiang Ze felt sorry for him, but at the same time they couldn't say that they didn't care about the lives of these people.
Half an hour later, the six players woke up one after another.
The six people all looked terrified. The feeling of being on the verge of death made them full of fear of the world.
Tan Lan said: "We stayed in the inn the whole time, but we didn't expect that at eight o'clock in the evening, the death notice still came, and the Xiaoqiao Inn became a ghost cave..."
At this point, the six players looked around in unison. It was obvious that the previous incident of the Xiaoqiao Inn turning into a haunted den had left them with a huge psychological trauma. If they were not afraid that moving to a new place would trigger another death notice, they would have wanted to leave immediately.
This also proves that whether you hide in the house or go out for a walk, it is equally dangerous when the death notice time comes.
This discovery made the players quite frustrated.
During the death announcement, they were all suddenly suppressed by some terrible force, vomiting blood, and finally fainting.
"It's like the power that descends when the game world is destroyed." Tong Shen said affirmatively, "Although I have never experienced it before, I have heard about it from S-level players."
Tong Shen is a member of a major force in Wujie City and has access to a great deal of information.
Others were thoughtful, feeling uneasy.
This sudden change in the game world made them very worried. The uncontrollable death notices were already too much to deal with, and if another accident happened, it would be too tragic.
"Besides you, where are the others?" Gu Jiu suddenly asked.
There were fourteen players entering the game world this time, and except for one person who died in the ancient house, there were thirteen others.
There are only ten people here now, and the remaining three are nowhere to be seen.
Tan Lan said: "During the death announcement just now, someone died..."
The players present were all silent. Even though they were used to seeing players die, they still felt uncomfortable every time someone died in front of them, as they always felt that it would be their turn someday.
The remaining two people went out later and have not returned yet.
After the six people finished telling their experiences, they asked Gu Jiu when they would return.
"We just came back." Chai Yingying said, "We found you all unconscious, so we fed you blood pills. The blood pills belong to Lu Ji, and you have to return them to him."
Although the six players felt sorry for losing Xuedan's points, they did not refuse to pay him back since the other person had saved their lives.
Four people transferred the blood pill points to Lu Ji, and the remaining two said a little embarrassedly: "Can we transfer it to you after we return to Wujie City? We don't have that many points now..."
Lu Ji responded indifferently.
The six people were very grateful and talked for a while before going back to their room to rest.
They have to take good care of their health so that they won't be unable to deal with the death notices that come in the middle of the night.
