I Kill Gods in Escape Game

Chapter 170 Wild Grass is a Cult

Shen Mengjie just woke up and was in a very bad condition.

The doctor came forward to take care of her, and Gao En and Xiao Yu watched worriedly.

Lin Yuan silently took two steps back, staring at Shen Mengjie, hoping that she would recover her normal speaking ability as soon as possible.

Perhaps God answered her prayers.

When the doctor scolded the two men beside the bed to get out of the way, Shen Mengjie coughed violently, her face turned pale, and she raised her fingers tremblingly and said in a weak voice:

"Lin Yuan... I have something important to tell you."

Lin Yuan moved closer and listened.

"The killer player who set the hook for me originally targeted me."

"At the beginning?"

Lin Yuan was keenly aware of Shen Mengjie's choice of words.

"Yeah." Shen Mengjie was a little confused, but she still tried her best to describe the scene.

"She came for me at first, but then she heard your name and turned around and went after you no matter what."

Xiao Yu couldn't help but say:
"As if you are such a hot commodity, that guy doesn't even think highly of me and Sister Meng."

"Shut up, Xiao Yu." Gao En scolded. Xiao Yu realized that now was not the time to joke and shut up.

Shen Mengjie didn't pay attention to this little episode and emphasized:
"Lin Yuan, you are dangerous."

Lin Yuan's movements were slightly delayed:

"Then at the end, when the instance was about to end, she rushed over to kill me..."

Shen Mengjie showed an expression as if she had survived a disaster:
"Fortunately, an NPC blocked the deadly hook for you."

Lin Yuan pursed his lips and stopped talking completely.

Gao En asked curiously:
"Even if there are NPCs who are good at what they do, most of them don't care about the players. In their eyes, we are no different from the invaders from the Fourth Scourge."

"There are NPCs willing to save players?"

Lin Yuan's fingers made a "crackling" sound, and although he was smiling, he looked eerie.

Lin Yuan thought.

According to Shen Mengjie's description, the murderer had most likely accepted the bounty order from Shen Mengjie, but during the assassination he learned that Lin Yuan was also in the copy. For the million-dollar bounty, he gave up the easy target and turned to hunt down Lin Yuan.

She closed her eyes, exhaled, and thought:
"If it were me, I would never change my target halfway and chase after a prey that is impossible to kill."

If the bounty order of the Death Alliance is not completed within the specified time limit, someone will die.

Calculating the time, it has been almost a month since Shen Mengjie's information was first publicly auctioned.

Lin Yuan only then realized that the killer's blood-drinking effect would still be effective in the sailing world.

If Lin Yuan didn't happen to have the props of the trial court, and was eager to get the news about the murderer from Shen Mengjie.

Shen Mengjie should have died today.

Unfortunately, the killer's accurate prediction was confused by Lin Yuan.

The corners of her lips curved slightly, and she felt a sense of pleasure as if she had taken revenge.

"If Shen Mengjie doesn't die, you will definitely die."

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke:
"Sister Meng, I just cured you. You'd better rest in the medical room for the next few days. Don't go out or play dungeons."

"Rest for a few more days so that the body can recover better."

Lin Yuan smiled happily, and at that moment, her face showed the rare innocence that a person of her age should have.

She said cryptically:
"Sister Meng, you just need to survive. As for other things, just leave them to others to consider."

Shen Mengjie nodded with emotion, thinking that Lin Yuan was referring to the Fanxing Guild and those people who were worried about her.

"No matter what, I have to thank you this time, Lin Yuan."...

After coming out of the medical room, Lin Yuan was called to Gao En's office again.

Manager Gao routinely asked about some things in the dungeon, and his face suddenly became serious:
"Kill Line players are taking action more and more frequently."

"First it was the former president, this time it was Shen Mengjie, and then..."

He sighed heavily:
“I don’t know who it is.”

Lin Yuan looked calm as usual. He picked up the newspaper on the desk and pretended to read it:
"Uncle Gao, I have also met the Slaughter player in this instance."

"I don't know why that group of people were so hostile to me and were determined to kill me at all costs."

"I managed to survive with great difficulty. The guild should provide me with some support."

Gao En nodded in agreement, and with a wave of his hand, a huge amount of contribution points was added to Lin Yuan's account.

"Use these to exchange for what you need at the Guild Mall."

Lin Yuan thought that he couldn't find any good stuff in the guild mall, so his contribution points would just rot.

In fact, Gao En was not only worried about killing players, but also worried about Lin Yuan.

"Lin Yuan cured Shen Mengjie, how do you give her the power you promised her?"

Thinking about the fact that Lin Yuan now has a lot of contribution points in his account.

"Why don't I step down and let her be the manager and boss."

Since this matter could not be arranged, Gao En felt as upset as a worker who could not complete his task.

Fortunately, Lin Yuan did not delve into the matter and read the newspaper leisurely, as if he was really interested in the big and small events happening in Zhongxing City.

Lin Yuan glanced at the newspaper and suddenly caught sight of a familiar name.

--weed.

"The Wild Grass Guild...has grown so big."

As soon as Lin Yuan said this, Gao En snorted in dissatisfaction as if by reflex.

"It's just a cult organization that has brainwashed most explorers. Now it is more popular in the Star City than the stars."

Gao En looked at Lin Yuan:

"Xiao Lin, do you know the Wild Grass Guild?"

Of course Lin Yuan would not say that she knew. At the same time, because she was a little curious about this organization, she asked:
"What is the Weed Guild?"

Gao En then gave a detailed introduction to the past and present of the Wild Grass Guild.

"The Feilong Guild, a makeshift group in the North City, was formed by Yuan Fang."

"The vice president died, and the president was promoted to an adventurer and joined the Stars, but the organization did not decline."

Gao En's tone was filled with disbelief:
"I heard that someone took over the Flying Dragon Guild and renamed it Wild Grass. I don't know how they got a lot of gold coins and food to attract a large number of explorers to join."

“Nowadays, people who are weeding can be found everywhere except in the East City District.”

Lin Yuan tapped the tabletop lightly with one hand and supported his chin with the other:

"Using gold coins to attract people, I can understand, but using food to attract people, how come this Wild Grass Guild is a bit like the Beggars' Sect?"

Seeing that Lin Yuan did not feel any hatred towards the weeds, but instead focused on other things, Gao En's eyes flashed unnaturally.

"The Weed Guild, just like its name, has a large number of members, and everyone is deeply brainwashed and will not tolerate anyone saying anything bad about weeds."

Gao En's eyes showed deep worry:
"I suspect this organization makes money by brainwashing its members, and then uses the money to recruit more members."

"If we allow the cult to develop, Star City will be paralyzed sooner or later."

Lin Yuan's face showed a trace of deep thought, as if he had just remembered:
"So, someone I know has also joined the Wild Grass Guild. If Wild Grass is really a cult, isn't their situation a bit dire?"
