With his vision, he could easily judge from the injuries on the girl's body what the other party had done in the maze of desire, but those things were not consistent with what was happening now.
Originally, the most optimistic outcome in his mind was to delay the awakening of that thing, and then risk his life to temporarily seal this cemetery. However, the current development of the situation is far beyond his expectations. unexpected.
—The thing that he had guarded for twenty years was maimed.
Having been on top of the opponent's head for 20 years, he can be said to be more familiar with the opponent than anyone else. If the opponent's previous level was extremely dangerous, now the danger level has dropped to the dangerous level.
How did this guy in front of me, who looked like he hadn't even left the Novice Village, do such an unbelievable thing
But even if he was beaten to death, he would never have thought that someone would carry a ghost story that was rated as epic by the system, and that the ghost story could really be carried...
"Let's put those things aside for now. We saved your life, right?"
Bai Zhi pulled up a chair and sat down, without any intention of getting into trouble with the other party, Bai Zhi spoke unceremoniously.
"Because of your affairs, we were injured like this. You shouldn't be able to deny this, right?"
"That's right."
He quickly understood what the other party meant, sighed slightly in his heart, and the old man nodded.
"But your situation requires professional doctors to treat you. There is nothing I can do for the time being."
"There's really nothing we can do?"
Looking at the old man in front of him, Bai Zhi raised his eyebrows slightly.
"To be honest, in the past, I paid a heavy price to deal with the thing that was about to wake up. It was an epic-level item. How rare is this level of item? You You should know better than me, right?"
"...Didn't you say you lost a piece of trash?"
"Oh, if you say that, the force level will be higher. Is it illegal to drag?"
"... That puzzle card must continue to be kept to suppress this place, but I can decide to give you a few supplementary cards."
After a moment of silence, the old man spoke.
Nine martyrs, nine epic-level puzzle cards, just like the [Qualification] card that was split and then issued. The tombkeeper, one of the martyrs, also has the same control in his hands. Holding an epic level puzzle card.
From the perfect level to the epic level, although the level in the middle is only improved by one level, the difference between the two is huge.
Perfect level items are the kind that can be manufactured in batches, while epic level items only have one less item. The number of epic level items that can be produced in each world is limited. .
To be honest, after learning about the nine epic-level puzzle cards and the martyrs from the tombkeeper, Bai Zhi already had in mind the screening mechanism that existed in the core area. A rough guess.
—The source of the screening mechanism that exists widely in the core area may be the split [Qualification].
Although the tombkeeper never announced the name of his puzzle card from beginning to end, Bai Zhi already had a rough guess in his mind.
[Ghost Story Cemetery] The epic-level puzzle card controlled by the tombkeeper here is called [Time].
Only the power of time can make those ghost stories fall into an almost eternal sleep in this cemetery, and only the power of time can make those ghost stories be completely buried in this cemetery.
Originally, Bai Zhi's plan was to let the opponent use the power of the puzzle card to completely recover the injuries on himself and the deceased Zero, but now it seems that the situation may be a bit beyond his expectation.
"Yes, as one of the most powerful puzzle cards in our world, [Time] can indeed do this. It is not too difficult to recover from injuries, but that was in the past."
Now that he no longer had anything to hide, the old man sighed in his mouth.
"I'm very grateful that you helped me severely damage that thing, otherwise I wouldn't have survived, but now I am not qualified to use this card, because most of its power is used to suppress this cemetery. Giving you two supplementary cards derived from it is already the greatest reward I can give within my capabilities."
"It's also an epic level? That's just barely enough. But two is too little, so can't we give a few more?"
Bai Zhi looked very dissatisfied.
"In order to help you damage that thing, I lost an important epic-level item. Do you know how much my heart hurts now?"
"... You can ask for a few more if you want, but the quality will drop exponentially."
After a moment of silence, the old man turned his head and looked to the side very tiredly.
"There are only two perfect-level secondary cards, there are five elite-level secondary cards, and there can be nine rare-level secondary cards. You choose one among the three. Items involving time are rare."
"You are too stingy."
Bai Zhi shook his head, with a look of disgust on his face.
"I thought you were going to give two epic-level items. Let's not talk about the very important epic-level item I lost. Look at how many injuries we suffered because of you? You can live with your conscience for doing this. ?"
"... It has fallen into a deep sleep again. Under this situation, the injuries on your body are nothing more than water without roots and trees without roots. As long as a professional doctor is present, you can recover quickly. As for the one over there, it’s a little more troublesome, but with the power of the secondary card, it’s not too difficult to fully recover.”
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and the old man spoke.
"I can only take out so many things. If you are still not satisfied, you can move the bed and table in my wooden house. Twenty years of patina can be regarded as high-quality products. You see If you can get it..."
Suddenly he stopped talking, and the old man turned his head and looked in another direction.
"It seems something happened to your friend. Do you need me to send you there?"

With the heavy damage to that thing, Bai Zhi and the others were naturally not the only two people who escaped from the maze of desire.
Some are lucky enough to escape directly from the realm of their desires without suffering any injuries.
But for some people who are unlucky, the ending is not so wonderful, especially if they smile without staining their cheeks but feel ashamed.
Bai Zhi had suffered quite a lot of injuries in order to pass through that building area before. With a smile on his face and no decent equipment and props to support him, the injuries on his body were naturally more serious.
Just when Bai Zhihe and the deceased Ling met up and entered the corpse cave, the one on the other side, who was smiling and shy, took Q Lingmeng with him to find the anchor point set for her by the tombkeeper. .
During this process, Smiley and Shy had suffered a lot of injuries on her body. Even with Q Lingmeng by her side, it could only help her keep her injuries from getting worse.
However, after arriving at that place, she had no intention of leaving. Instead, she stayed in the room, seemingly waiting for the opportunity to come.
As a twin sister, she had corresponding telepathic feelings towards her sister. After sensing that the other person had finally come out of her realm of desire, she used a skill to exchange places with the other person, dragging her wounds. His disabled body once again put himself in a dangerous situation.
For the world she lives in, she does not have the same deep emotions as her sister. Her sister may want to protect their world, but there is only one thing she wants to protect from the beginning.
In such a world with scarce resources, in such a world where human beings are bred by ghost stories, in such a desperate world... it is too difficult for a pair of orphans who have lost their parents to survive.
People who are of no use value will eventually be abandoned.
So as early as a very young age, she had already learned how to fight. She transformed from a human into a crazy wild dog, using her teeth and claws to protect her only remaining possessions, hiding silently in corners countless times. He licked his wounds and used his fierce eyes to warn the evil wolves around him with malicious intentions.
She doesn't resent those higher-ups, nor does she feel sorry for herself, because in such a situation, as the last remaining hope in the world, tenderness will only accelerate their demise.
But sometimes, she would reflect in her heart.
Did he go too far in protecting his sister? Is it because she is basically not exposed to the darkness that makes her sister seem so naive about those things now
…Maybe so.
Looking at the monsters that had surrounded her through her blurred vision, the girl who was no longer human-like closed her eyes tiredly, and her figure fell heavily to the side.
At the next moment, her consciousness slowly sank into an abyss-like seabed...
… … … … … … … … …
In the cemetery, thick fog enveloped the surroundings.
In a corner of the cemetery, six people gathered here.
"Give up, she is hopeless."
A top was spinning on his fingertips, and the tall, thin man wearing a black hat shook his head.
"It is turning into a monster. It is no longer worth saving. If you don't let it go, you will be its first target later."
In front of the small group headed by this tall and thin man, a girl sat on the ground with a "monster" in her arms. If you look carefully, you can vaguely see the monster with ravines on its face. The appearance is slightly similar to that of the girl kneeling on the ground.
"..."
Listening to the words of the man in front of her, the girl who lowered her head did not reply, but she hugged him tighter.
"However, if you can come up with a reward that satisfies us, I can try to treat him."
Crouching down in front of the girl, his eyes swept over the monster in the girl's arms, and the man spoke with interest.
"Whether it's equipment, props, or skill cards, take out everything you can. If you can pay enough value, I don't mind helping."
"Really?"
Raising her head to look at the man in front of her, the girl's eyes showed a glimmer of light.
"I'm not too valuable..."
"Of course, doctors are like parents."
Reaching out to take off the hat on his head and placing it in front of the other person, the man smiled and spoke.
"You must really want to save your sister, right? Then let me see how sincere you are. Remember to hurry up, it won't last too long..."
There seemed to be some kind of magic in the man's words. Amidst the man's words, the girl blankly took out all the things from her backpack.
Behind this tall and thin man, several men looked towards this side with their hands folded as if they were watching a good show.
"It's starting again. I can already foresee the ending of this poor guy."
Covering his eyes with his hands, a man in a crisp white suit shook his head with a sigh.
"This guy is still like this, still has such a bad taste, and the doctor is obviously not here."
"You can take the other things, but I want her."
Beside this man, a man with a gloomy face spoke in an unquestionable tone.
"I was hurt the most before."
"Why?"
Beside, a fat man had a sneer on his face.
"Although you were injured the most, I contributed the most. Don't forget, if it weren't for me, you would have been hacked to death by the woman from the relevant department!!"
"Are you questioning me?"
After listening to the fat man's words, the man's expression suddenly turned cold.
"Don't think that I don't dare to kill you. What qualifications do you have to stand here and talk like a loser?"
"Yes, but I, a loser, happened to save your life, so wouldn't you be even more useless?"
The fat man had a sinister look on his face.
"Don't think about taking advantage of it all by yourself. We all have a share in it. If you have the ability to kill me, then you can do it?"
"Okay, you two, now is not the time to be inside. Don't forget, that scary guy is still chasing us."
Before the conflict arose, the man in the white suit stood between the two of them like a good old man.
"We are a superior new human race. There is no need to have conflicts over such trivial matters like those old humans. What do you think? And they will also be our companions in the future, and they will treat their companions as their own property. , Weitu is a little bit uncomfortable, right?"
—When he said this, the man in the white suit glanced at the gloomy man without leaving any trace.
"..."
Volume One: The Gap between Illusion and Reality: Chapter 845 Chapter 835 Attack and Aboveboardness
New Humanity, an organization composed mainly of fallen players.
Like the Gold Hunter Group, this organization is also notorious. However, compared to the Gold Hunter Group, which is keen on killing, robbing and exploiting novice players, the New Humanity organization is on the other extreme.
They will not squeeze novice players, but through step-by-step planning and guidance, they will make these players fall into joining them and eventually become members of their new human race.
These new humans are bold and wanton, and regard ordinary people as inferior creatures. According to the information collected by the relevant departments, those who can become official members of the new humans have done one thing.
—Kill all your own family members.
Either actively or passively.
Although the relevant departments, led by the deceased Ling, had conducted an encirclement and suppression of this organization before, that encirclement and suppression was not successful... or it was not completely successful.
There are three real senior leaders of this organization.
According to the relevant departments, the code names of these three people are [Mother of New Humanity], [Mother of Beasts], and [Doctor].
However, except for [Doctor] who appeared in that siege and took away several core members, the remaining two people never appeared. The specific information about these three people collected by the relevant departments is even more Very few.
As long as these three people are not eliminated, the [New Humanity] organization will always be able to resurrect.
The four people here now are the few members of the new human race who survived the previous siege.
Originally, the number of members they gathered at the beginning should have been seven, but because they happened to meet the deceased Zero, they also had evil intentions and wanted to take advantage of the overwhelming number of people to keep him here... Then These were the only four of them left.
