The demon acted as if nothing had happened. He turned the simple ring on his finger with an unfathomable expression: "If you want to destroy my magic circle, what benefits do you want from me?"
Xiao Li: "Tell me your name?"
"Okay." The demon narrowed his blood-red eyes, except for the color of his eyes, he looked no doubt like a normal human, he made a gesture gracefully, "You can complete your task first, this is how I treat you like The etiquette of such people."
The tip of the scalpel was aimed at the sacrificial circle, and it lingered on the edge of the piercing many times, but it never succeeded.
Brother Hao's heart slackened and tense, and he wanted to hold the opponent's hand and stab it directly, so that they could complete the task earlier and return to the display - after all, demons are always moody, and they are the objects that reincarnators don't want to deal with at all.
"Sherlock?" Zou Hanyi didn't dare to breathe, she reached out and tugged at the corner of Xiao Li's clothes and asked in a low voice.
The demon twitched his lips, and he said meaningfully, "Should I call you Moriarty, or Sherlock?"
"The name is just a code name, it doesn't matter." Xiao Li put away the scalpel completely, "What matters now is... the truth."
Brother Hao said in surprise: "The truth?!"
No one paid him any attention.
Xiao Li reluctantly said to the demon, "We've known each other for so long, and we know each other well, so can't we cut down on the bells and whistles and go straight to the point?"
Demon: "..."
—When did he get to know this human... well? !
Xiao Li continued: "Then I'll just say it straight, saving or destroying is a false proposition at all. With this calm look of Mr. Demon in front of him, how does it look like his sacrificial circle is about to be destroyed?"
"Maybe...because I found something more interesting than the magic circle." The demon interjected, "For me, this magic circle is just a sacrifice for one less world, and it doesn't hurt."
"You can only listen to one percent of your words." Xiao Li mocked, "The truth is very simple, as the letter said, there is no choice at all."
Zou Hanyi asked, "What do you mean? Isn't it the choice written in the mission book?"
"What if the phased tasks we received are fake?" Xiao Li put forward a hypothesis, "If there is a power that can tamper with our tasks, the person with this power is very unpleasant, he will give us two A choice, salvation or destruction, but in the end it will be the same destination."
The demon listened quietly, suddenly interrupted Xiao Li's words, pointed at himself and raised his eyebrows: "Is the person you're talking about?"
Xiao Li ignored him: "My guess is very simple. Since we entered this world, the tasks displayed in the task book have been tampered with. At first, I thought that the restricted area has 'spirits', the girl in the dream and the outside world. The dark shadows of the people are all its conscious manifestations, but after seeing the surveillance video, I found that I had thought wrong before, they were afraid of the devil."
"In fact, from the envelope, to the way out of the haunted house, there are always hints - the answer is in our eyes, and the 'choice' we see is not real."
"The entire exclusion zone is the devil's playground."
"This Mr. Demon tampered with our mission, he added an illusion to the real mission, confounded us with the fake mission he created, watched the reincarnators go round and round - and finally appeared in front of us, using his The pompous show watched us fall into his trap. Whether we choose to save or destroy, we end up failing our real mission and being left in this world until we're killed over time, because we don't know the real What is the mission?"
Xiao Li smiled when he said this: "But I guess, the real task is also related to the truth here... Maybe it will appear after I finish talking?"
The exaggerated performer listened very seriously: "Well, Mr. Sherlock, where is my performance exaggerated?"
"Eyes." Xiao Li pointed to the other's eyes, "Your emotions are too exaggerated."
He originally wanted to change the word, but he didn't think about what to change, so he still used a synonym after deliberation.
As soon as Xiao Li's voice fell, Xiao Huangben, who had always been quiet before, shook.
Above the original [Third Stage Mission: Rescue the Restricted Area], a line of handwriting in bold with a red pen appeared: [Real Mission: Infer the truth of the restricted area.]
The original stage task handwriting gradually faded until it disappeared completely, and this new line of handwriting replaced it.
[The reincarnation Xiao Li completed the real task, the evaluation level is S, the task completion rate is 95%, and he gets 1000 Survival Coins.]
[You have already destroyed the game of the god of deceit, Puse Udurogoi, and your hatred value in his heart is already at the top of the list—additional reminder, when the hatred value reaches its peak, even if he encounters a former enemy of life and death , the number one priority in his heart will still be to kill you.]
Xiao Li was silent for two seconds, then raised his head and asked with an innocent face the man in front of him who didn't know whether it was an evil god or a demon: "...Isn't it necessary?"
Purse Udurogoy responded with a polite smirk.
"Then your hatred in my heart has also increased." Xiao Li sighed and looked at him, "The reason is that in this world, you won't let me sleep."
- Also sent little girls to harass people in their dreams and take revenge.
Purse Udurogoi: "...?"
The famous god of deceit suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
[The scene is changing.]
[3, 2, 1—]
Xiao Li's eyes flickered, and he had returned to reality from the restricted area, and his footsteps landed on the cruise ship.
The earlier fireworks were over, and the night sky fell silent.
He tucked Xiao Huangben into his pocket, relaxed his tense thoughts, turned around and entered the lounge - he must have a good night's sleep.
Xiao Li's cleanliness attacked, he forced himself to take a quick shower, and finally lay down on the bed and closed his eyes.
The moonlight outside the window shone into the house through the veil, and frost fell on the ground.
The boy on the bed has a very white complexion and extremely black hair, and the contrast of the colors is a bit surprising at first glance.
It was rare for him to sleep so deeply, exhaustion overflowing from his brows.
A figure appeared beside his bed, the man leaned down, stretched out his hand to adjust the boy's sleeping position, and only slowly sat down beside the bed when he saw the other's brows gradually stretch out.
Xiao Li slept all night, and the other party watched him all night.
—
Since the world in the restricted area, Xiao Li really had a good rest for a while.
He only felt that all the muscles and bones in his body were relaxed, and his physical strength had been adequately replenished.
The new dungeon quest was still too late, Xiao Liquan thought he was taking a vacation. At first, it was quite pleasant, but after a long time, he felt bored.
Ye Zeqing was paying attention to him these days. After getting Xiao Li's number, he often sent him WeChat.
Ye Zeqing: "Xiao Li, is your next dungeon soon, do you want to fill in the team symbol in advance?"
Xiao Li sat in a class he hadn't seen for a long time, he erected the textbook to cover himself, and replied to Ye Zeqing's message: "I just got out of the new copy three days ago, maybe not so fast."
Ye Zeqing's reply was very fast, and it seemed that he had been guarding the phone: "...Wait, it's only been a few days since we came out of the ghost call copy? You entered another copy?!"
Xiao Li replied "En".
Ye Zeqing: "...You're a boss, you're awesome, and you can even enter the dungeon faster than us."
Ordinary reincarnators can't wait to make a dungeon in ten years. How can anyone look forward to a new dungeon like Xiao Li.
Xiao Li sat in the chair nonchalantly and talked to him. After talking for a while, he suddenly thought of the waiter he met on the cruise before, and asked Ye Zeqing by the way: "By the way, do you know the court?"
"Yes," Ye Zeqing really knew more about these things, "a notorious organization. All of them are ruthless reincarnations, and in reality they also know how to fight ghosts. This organization is most famous once among them. The high-level people will kill all the reincarnators who are on the same mission, just because they want to please the Boss inside."
"What are you asking this for?"
Xiao Li told him what happened on the cruise ship.
Ye Zeqing heard the words: "... I originally wanted to say, don't offend them if you can. After all, you're not afraid of thieves stealing, but thieves will miss them."
Xiao Li is very open-minded: "It's okay, it's not itchy to have a lot of debts."
His free and easy attitude infected Ye Zeqing: "That's right, a strong person should not be afraid of anyone's challenge. But Xiao Li, listen to you, have you offended many people?"
Xiao Li thought about it carefully, and gave the answer of denial: "Fortunately, there is only one evil god."
Ye Zeqing: "..."
"Wait, the evil god?! Is that the evil god I thought? The one who is several dimensions higher than us, the one who has faith, the evil god...?"
After Xiao Li gave a positive answer, Ye Zeqing was silent for a long time, and then swiped Xiao Li's screen with an exclamation mark.
This made Xiao Li have to block Ye Zeqing who suddenly went crazy. He put his phone on the table and stared at the teacher's Mediterranean hairstyle in front of the podium for a while.
In addition to Ye Zeqing, there is another person who pays attention to him, Xiao Yuzheng.
Maybe Xiao Yuzheng was really old and started to want to take care of his children and grandchildren. Except for Xiao Ming, the youngest, after the birthday party, he began to warm up to Xiao Li, which was very unaccustomed to Xiao Li.
Xiao Yuzheng not only asks about Xiao Li's diet and daily life, but also looks at him with an indebted look, as if Xiao Li had suffered so much before - Xiao Li would rather the other party go back to the way he was busy with work before, Completely ignoring his state, he is free instead.
Xiao Li put it bluntly and was not used to accepting other people's love, especially Xiao Yuzheng's belated compensation. He now feels that he is out of place for everything in Xiao's house.
Or... Or should I argue with Xiao Yu again and move out from Xiao's house
Xiao Li thought.
It's just that how to convince Xiao Yuzheng is another problem. A tough attitude will not work.
The tablemate sitting next to Xiao Li looked at his profile with his chin up, and the young man said softly, "Xiao Li?"
Xiao Li paused for a while before raising his head: "Huh?"
Shen Mizhi was very close, his tone was almost gentle: "What are you in a daze?"
"I want to move." Xiao Li said.
His answer surprised Shen Mizhi, the young man paused for a while, and asked tentatively, "You don't live in Xiao's house anymore?"
Xiao Li had a good impression of Shen Mizhi, so he answered honestly, "It's more free to move out."
"Have you found a good house?" Shen Mizhi hesitated for a moment, but then said, "I have a friend who has an apartment and is looking for a tenant. If you need it..."
