Views:

When Xin Meng regained consciousness again, the other side was already beaten into a ball.

"You damn blind Dong Xiu!" Xiong Jiabao cursed with a red face and punched Dong Xiu in the face, "You're even hurting your teammates, you're not a human being!"

But Dong Xiu, who had recovered his arms, used to go to the gym regularly, and had a personal trainer to teach him fighting skills. Although he was not that professional, there was no way that Xiong Jiabao, who lacked training, could beat him, and he was able to twist him in just a few strokes. He put his arms behind his back and cursed back, "Why am I no longer a human being? You still have the nerve to accuse me. My arms are gone and I asked you to put on a blindfold for me. Who the hell cares about me! Oh, I do when I need help. You can think of me, but there is no way! You actually cleared the level, how come you didn’t die there!"

"Go away! You'd better die as soon as possible!" Xiong Jiabao flew back and kicked him, but Dong Xiu kicked him hard on the knee of the other leg. He immediately knelt on the ground with a "pop", his face The nose was bruised and the face was swollen early in the morning, but he didn't even touch a hair on Dong Xiu's head.

It was more of a one-sided beating than a fight.

Xin Meng rubbed her eyes, sat up from the ground, ignored their noise, looked at the surrounding environment first, and then frowned.

The venue this time... is it in a castle

They are now in a huge living room. The roof is nearly thirty meters above the ground. The pure gold chandelier hanging from the ceiling is engraved with exquisite patterns. The eighteen candles inserted on it have been lit. The breeze coming from nowhere illuminates the room in flickering light, but you can still see the exquisite murals painted on the walls and the gorgeous gold-rimmed red carpet at your feet. The whole room is filled with the smell of a medieval European castle.

"Have you seen the contents of those murals?" Qi Xiaokui walked up to him and pointed at the wall and asked him.

Xin Meng didn't look carefully just now, but glanced at it. It was dark. When Qi Xiaokui mentioned it specifically, he walked over to take a look, and was shocked.

The murals were full of all kinds of strange creatures. They had deformed horns on their heads, gray-grey skin, and evil eyes. They were all demons!

"I always feel that the meaning is not very good," Qi Xiaokui murmured, "Which normal person would draw such a thing in the castle."

"By the way, where's You Yi!" Xin Meng looked around, but didn't see a familiar man, and her expression suddenly changed!

"Don't worry, he may be in a different place than the one we entered, or else..." Qi Xiaokui paused and handed the card in her hand to Xin Meng, "He has other tasks."

Xin Meng lowered his head and looked at the back of the card, only to see a line of small words appearing on the prompt. He looked through the candlelight and saw that it read:

[The actual number of participants in this round of the game is six, and the effective number of participants is five. The difficulty has been increased. In order to balance the difficulty of the game, a copy of the "Demon King's Castle" map is included.]

[You know him? But he is no longer the same person.]

"He is no longer the same person?" Xin Meng held the card and repeated in a low voice. There was a small map printed under the card. He took it out of his pocket and took out a card as expected. The content on the front and the map were It's exactly the same as Qi Xiaokui's, but the prompts are different.

He looked at the other two Dong Xiu and Xiong Jiabao who were still fighting, and Li Yougen who was hiding aside, and shouted indifferently: "Stop fighting, put the cards together, the next game has already started, no Waste of time."

Xiong Jiabao and Dong Xiu then stopped angrily, but their enemies were extremely jealous when they met, and no one wanted to get close to the other.

Xin Meng did not accept their cards, knowing that Dong Xiu would not give them to him, so he was too lazy to pay attention to this villain.

In the last game, Dong Xiu framed them. He had some ideas, but even if he and Xiong Jiabao combined, they might not be able to beat Dong Xiu. Wherever he goes, Qi Xiaokui can't help, and Li Yougen will definitely just hide if it doesn't concern him - it can be seen from just now. You Yi was not here, so there was really nothing he could do for a while.

If you really risk your life to fight him, you will get a lose-lose result at best, but once you are injured, subsequent game passes will be even more dangerous.

We can only see if there is a chance to get rid of this person, so as to save him from being uneasy and stabbing him in the back.

Xin Meng simply asked everyone to gather the cards on the ground, and they turned around to look at them.

The information was in order. Xin Meng sorted it out and finally came up with the correct order.

First of all, what Qi Xiaokui’s card says is:

[The old demon king is dead, the ruling position is vacant, and the young demon generals are ready to take action.]

And Xiong Jiabao’s is:

[Six candidates for the Demon General, which one do you choose to support? Wise generals can only accept a loyal subordinate.]

Next is Xin Meng’s:

[Only by meeting one of their requirements can you join the corresponding camp.]

What Dong repaired is:

[By defeating other demon generals, you can become the new demon king.]

Finally, it’s Li Yougen:

[The final winner decides whether you will stay or go.]

"In other words, we have to help a demon general compete for the demon king. The new demon king who wins in the end can determine whether we can pass the level?" Xin Meng said.

"This is too ridiculous..." Xiong Jiabao muttered, it was a normal world before, why did the devil suddenly appear? Did they go to the wrong set

"By the way, where did You Yi go?" Xiong Jiabao asked belatedly, "Without him, we also lose a piece of information!"

"It says 'he is no longer the same person', does it refer to You Yi?" Qi Xiaokui looked at Xin Meng who was silent, "It feels very similar to the time when I was an NPC, but I didn't prompt you at that time. ."

Xin Meng nodded, "Probably."

But what he kept thinking about was the last words You Yi said before he got in the car. Are you looking forward to the next game

What's the meaning

Does he know what the next game is, or does he know what role he will play

You Yi was gone, which made him a little uneasy, but he looked at the card and saw [actual number of participants: six], and felt relieved. As long as You Yi was still in the same game as him, they would always meet.

He moved and suddenly felt something in his pocket. He took it out and saw that it was another card!

This is You Yi’s card!

Why is it in his pocket

Xin Meng picked it up and looked at it, only to see that there was no map on it, and there was no first prompt. There was only one sentence written on it, "Whoever has the ability of the new devil can be brought into the next game as a reward."]

"What?" Dong Xiu's eyes widened in shock, "Can the Demon King's ability be carried into the next game?!"

Although I don’t know what abilities the Demon King has, it is definitely not something that a mortal can reach. If he has such an ability, he is equivalent to having a gold medal for facing death!

This is definitely the biggest cheat found in this game so far!

Dong Xiu, Xiong Jiabao, and Li Yougen's eyes lit up. They all wanted this ability! Qi Xiaokui was lying if she said she wasn't moved.

"But how to get the New Demon King's ability is not written on this card." Xin Meng was not carried away, flipping the card in his hand, but did not see other relevant content, "Let's talk about this last, after all, the New Demon King Who is responsible for it? There is no trace yet."

Xiong Jiabao was a little discouraged. He took back his card and put it in his pocket, "What should we do now?"

The cautious attitude, as vigilant as protecting food, is completely different from the way he casually handed the card to Xin Meng when he first met him.

Xin Meng took a deep look at him, stood up, looked around the hall, and pointed out, "There are five doors there. It is likely that the five of us will make a choice. The chosen devil will be different. Go through different doors.”

"But aren't there six demon generals?" Qi Xiaokui asked quickly, "Even if there are only five of us, we shouldn't leave only five people. Otherwise, there will be one demon general left, and isn't it destined to not be selected? I don’t think it makes sense.”

"Then let's do something that everyone does immediately after entering the game," Xin Meng said.

"What's going on?" Xiong Jiabao asked stupidly. The first time he entered the game was to look for weapons and food. Thinking of this, he pulled his backpack over and rummaged through it. There were no weapons in it, only two bags of bread.

He took out a bag and looked at Xin Meng, "What next?"

Xin Meng: "..."

"Is your head made of water?" Qi Xiaokui sarcastically said without mercy, "You just know how to eat! Are you a pig!?"

"Hey, sister, I don't care about you because you are a woman. Don't scold me," Xiong Jiabao was unhappy, "I don't understand food at all. In the last game, it was because there was no food. , I almost starved to death, hey, you are still young, it is normal to not understand."

Qi Xiaokui: "... Damn you are mentally retarded."

Xin Meng raised her head and said, "No, I'm just observing the environment and looking for any useful props around."

"The props are gone," Qi Xiaokui answered him, "Dong Xiu and Li Yougen woke up first and turned everything around. They even lifted the carpet, but there was nothing."

After receiving Qi Xiaokui's disdainful gaze, Dong Xiu and Li Yougen turned their heads and pretended not to see it.

"Then take a look at these murals. I just took a look and they seem to have a plot." Xin Meng walked towards the murals.

No one else paid attention to this. Only Qi Xiaokui felt it was a bit eerie and didn't dare to look any further. At this time, they all gathered in front of the mural.

The murals are full of strange-looking demons, some humanoid, some non-human, and some half-human and half-monster. Their only characteristics are gray skin and ferocious and vicious eyes.

This mural was so real that after looking at it for a little longer, the evil spirit inside seemed to be about to pounce out. Xiong Jiabao was startled and did not dare to look at it anymore. He was not as courageous as Qi Xiaokui.

There are three large murals in total.

"Look at the first picture," Xin Meng pointed to the painting on the left hand side. "There are seven demons on it. They should be the old demon king and six demon generals."

In a chaotic land with black and gray clouds as the background, there are six humanoid demons with unclear faces, sitting or standing in a circle, surrounding a big demon in the middle. The demon is larger than the others. All six of them are big, wearing crowns, with clear and delicate features, holding a snake-headed trident, majestic, raising one foot to step on the gold-inlaid throne, twisting around to look back, a pair of fierce red eyes like hungry wolves. Staring at the person outside the painting, his eyes were full of arrogance.

Everyone looked at the second painting in front of them in order, which was also the largest painting. This painting was divided into seven small pieces, each piece corresponding to a devil. The first was the old devil depicted on the largest piece. He brought Wearing a crown, holding a gorgeous scepter in hand, holding his head high, he sat in a golden throne studded with gems. He stretched out his two feet, one stepped on the face of a guard-looking demon, and the other stepped on the ground. On the slightly broken puzzle piece, six demon generals can be vaguely seen on the surface.
