I Kill Gods in Escape Game

Chapter 67 God of Plague
when--

The distant and dull bells rang, and all the animals gathered to one place like flowing water.

Lin Yuan took a deep breath.

Eight o'clock arrived.

The crocodile head's mouth, full of sharp teeth, moved slightly, and an indistinct sound jumped out of its long mouth.

"Fox, the auction has started. Do you want to come with me?"

Lin Yuan's heart suddenly jumped up, and those words flashed through his mind again.

Don’t trust your peers

“No need.” Lin Yuan said coldly and followed the crowd to the auction venue.

The crocodile head seemed to be very interested in her fox ears and kept following her closely.

The auction was held in a luxurious opera house.

There was a long red carpet sprinkled with gold powder, the seats were inlaid with colorful gems, the dome of the opera house was hung with glittering decorations, like a starry sky, and the stage was where the staff auctioned items.

Lin Yuan had just stepped onto the red carpet when a staff member with a human body and a bull's head stopped her and said calmly, "Madam, the killers who come in and out of here need a code name, and you don't have one yet."

Lin Yuan turned his gaze towards the people who had already walked onto the red carpet and entered the venue, and discovered that they all had a short code name above their heads.

"Fangs, scorpions, lions, cannonball trees..."

There are also some English IDs, such as venom, leaf, and the transliteration of John.

After observing for a while, Lin Yuan found that there was no regular pattern in the naming of code names, and some people even named the dishes based on their mood.

Well, it’s just a code name, simple and easy to remember, and what does it need to have to do with the real you?

"Fox, are you new here?"

The crocodile head shook its head and chased after him, openly revealing its ID on its head: Alligator.

"Many people use the animals they transform into as their pseudonyms. I heard that the type of animal that each person transforms into is often related to that person's inner world."

"In a sense, animal code names can be regarded as a symbol of a person's soul."

The alligator rubbed his almost invisible ears and suggested sincerely: "I rarely see such a weak aggression... Big Ears, why don't you call him Fox?"

When Lin Yuan heard the words "symbol of the soul", he had other thoughts in his mind.

The alligator was still giving Lin Yuan advice. Many people were bad at naming, but it just liked to give names, even though none of them were very good.

"Or, red ears and red eyes?"

Lin Yuan did not listen to Crocodile's advice and entered five English letters on the panel, which together formed a heart.

——heart.

"Heart? Why do you choose a weird code name?" The alligator was puzzled. It didn't know that this ID would cause a huge storm in the Death Alliance in the future.

Every time the alliance's highest bounty is awarded, it is always to a man called Heart.

No matter how noble the status of the goal is, how solid the foundation is, how much wealth and supporters it has.

Under the knife of the heart, all beings are equal, and no matter whose soul it is, it is worth only one price.

Lin Yuan's eyes sank, like stars sinking into a dead pond. He uttered a few more words: "That's the name I once lost..."

Lin Xinyuan, missing a middle character.

There are many things that Lin Yuan can’t remember in his mind. It seems that with the name change, all the memories belong to another name that has been forgotten.

She is Lin Yuan.

Without saying anything more, she walked onto the red carpet, leaving light golden footprints on it.

Lin Yuan chose a seat in the middle row. He felt that this position would allow him to see clearly what was on the stage, yet not stand out at all, making it convenient for him to hide in the crowd.

Strange-looking killers came in one after another. Unexpectedly, "beasts in human form" did not only include animals. Some people came in with mutated and rotten faces, and some even had grass and flowers growing on their heads.

Although it looks strange, it does not prevent the killers from sitting down gracefully.

Compared with them, Lin Yuan seemed vulgar.

Lin Yuan was amazed at what he saw, and couldn't help but wonder: Why do they pretend to be elegant and pure when they are clearly a group of "beasts in human form"?

She knows what kind of person she is and is too lazy to pretend.

The alligator sat in a row behind Lin Yuan, not far away.

At this moment, a black cloak passed by his eyes, and the intricate star patterns on the robe formed a river. Lin Yuan's breathing stopped suddenly and he turned his head to look to the side.

There is a familiar person sitting in the seat on the right.

——The cloak merchant.

The merchant doesn't seem to need a beastly disguise, because the cloak is his disguise, or rather, the cloak has become his symbol.

Lin Yuan really wanted to ask about the Death Alliance and how he was looking for the executioners scattered around the Star City, and he just opened his mouth.

A charming and enchanting figure appeared on the stage, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. I am Miss Snake, the auctioneer."

The ID above Miss Snake's head is snake. Her upper body is that of a human, and her lower body is a snake tail. Her superior figure attracted the attention of everyone in the audience, either drooling or admiring. Lin Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then followed suit and turned his eyes over there.

Lin Yuan glanced around quietly and was stunned.

Why are there no seats in the three rows in front and behind her?
Except for the cloak merchant.

Lin Yuan looked behind him with great difficulty and in an unsociable manner.

She remembered that the alligator was sitting in the back row, but when she turned around, the alligator had moved to the last row, and its main goal was to stay away from her.

Hayashihara:?
Glancing to the right, Lin Yuan realized that he might have made a mistake.

She didn't know about the Death Alliance, so naturally she didn't know the merchant's status in the alliance.

Ever since the cloaked merchant sat next to her, this guy was like paraquat, quickly "driving away" everyone else.

Only Lin Yuan was in the midst of the plague, unaware of it.

*
The auction began with Miss Snake's enthusiastic voice.

Her voice seemed to have a hook, making people follow her voice unconsciously and listen attentively to every word she said.

"As usual, the first part of the auction is about the information of the prey."

"The first item is the information of the president of the Flying Dragon Guild in Star City."

She clapped her hands, and the big screen on the stage flashed for a few seconds before displaying a message.

[Prey Name: Yuan Fang]

[Identity: President of the Explorers Guild of the North District of Star City]

[Specialty: Picking up rubbish]

[Rank: Explorer Five Star]

There is a rather substantial folder attached below the rank. It seems that the four lines of basic information on the screen are just the title, and the informative text is all in the folder.

Miss Snake twisted her body and made exaggerated movements. She briefly introduced the value of the information and then began to bid: "For the killers he likes, press the button next to your seat to start bidding!"

"The starting price is five hundred gold."

"Everyone please keep quiet and do not talk to each other during the auction."

It was obvious that all the people who came to participate in the auction were elderly people, and no one violated the rules of the auction.

Lin Yuan had many questions in his mind, but he could only keep them to himself.

Perhaps because it was too embarrassing to take a ragpicker as prey, Yuan Fang's information was put up for a long time but no one took a photo.

Miss Snake's expression was a little stiff, but she quickly adjusted herself and introduced the product in more detail.

"Yuan Fang has a good relationship with many homeless people in the North City District and often helps those brothers..."

Lin Yuan pressed the button on the side of the seat with a "click".
