Life Dungeon Game

Eventually, these patterns intertwined to form a twisted and complex magic circle.

This should be the silver mulberry leaf mentioned in the notes, and the array engraved on the silver mulberry leaf.

So these are the items I obtained?

He gazed at the mulberry leaf.

Judging from the contents of the notes, this mulberry leaf seems to serve as a talisman.

He Ao briefly transferred his original consciousness to this body, and then activated his super memory to memorize the formation.

He didn't know if the formation was useful, but it wouldn't hurt to memorize it.

-

After memorizing the formation, He Ao's consciousness returned to his main body in Xidu.

He took out his phone, summarized what he had seen and heard on the Verola, and then selected some information that he could talk about, sending it to Yang De under the pretext of 'guessing'.

Indeed, some of the information contained within was his speculation based on the actual situation.

The six passengers were mostly ordinary people. Apart from He Ao, who boarded the bus while concealing his presence, the only strong person was a D-level superhuman.

As a Class B extraordinary item, this vehicle is far too cautious; it would likely dodge even Yang De's probing attacks.

This is not good news.

-

On a tranquil sea, there stands a crescent-shaped island, and in the very center of this crescent-shaped island, a crescent-shaped deep pool quietly curls up.

The brilliant moonlight and the brilliance of the stars mingled together and were reflected on the deep pool, creating a breathtakingly beautiful scene.

"This car really knows how to find a place."

A woman with long, wine-red hair and a voluptuous figure squatted by the pool, taking out her phone to take a picture.

"really,"

Not far from her, a muscular man in a pure white vest looked around and said, "If this island hadn't appeared in the preordained location, I wouldn't have known that such a place existed."

"Be on guard. According to the timeline, that car will be here soon."

Standing on the opposite side of the deep pool, the man in the black leather jacket slowly opened his mouth and spoke softly.

"Old Yang, are you sure the three of us can stop that Class B car?"

The muscular man lowered his voice and asked in a deep voice.

"We're just testing how many people it takes to entangle that car. Then a council member will step in."

The man in the black leather jacket was Yang De. The moment he finished speaking, his cell phone vibrated in his pocket.

It moved slightly.

He took out his phone, which displayed a message.

[Mercenary: Yang, according to the data, the Verola seems to have the ability to sense life force. If it encounters a particularly strong aura, it might flee. If you have any extraordinary items that can reduce the aura, you could try using them; perhaps you can trick it.]

Who sent it?

The red-haired woman flashed and instantly appeared next to Yang De. She peeked out and said, "Isn't this our new deputy minister? I heard he took on two opponents at once, killing one C-level and repelling another? When are you going to bring him out and introduce us?"

"This kid is wary and doesn't like to show his face in public,"

Yang De smiled and shook his head.

"Sigh, why are little brothers these days so unlovable? Do you expect me to eat them?"

The red-haired woman yawned.

"Old Yang, to be honest, you still need to communicate with him more. We'll be going out to fight together in the future. If we don't even know his true colors, it'll be hard for us to trust each other."

The muscular man not far away also spoke in a deep voice.

“That kid is smart,” Yang De shook his head. “He will make it public when he feels it’s time. Let’s wait and see.”

"Old Yang, do you think his guess is correct?"

The red-haired woman looked at the dark sea in the distance and suddenly asked a question.

“I don’t know,” Yang De said with a serious expression. “Theoretically, it’s reasonable, but the Class B train shouldn’t be scared away by the three of us Class C trains. The board members above also think that our personnel configuration should be fine.”

"Oh."

The red-haired woman suddenly pulled out her phone, which showed the time as 20:31. "I remember the time given was 20:29, right? Was the prediction off? Was it actually a vague time?"

"Prophecy is never wrong."

Yang De's face darkened.

······

"So, we really scared that car away?" The red-haired woman looked up at the night sky. "Wasn't that a bit too cowardly?"

Everyone's faces darkened.

The situation was worse than they had anticipated. A Grade B extraordinary item was definitely powerful, and the three of them would never be able to stop it.

The fact that the Verola had to avoid even the three of them only proves that it was trying to avoid direct confrontation and was trying to use its advantages to buy time.

There's probably a deeper scheme involved.

Chapter 405 The First Dead (Long Chapter, Please Subscribe, Add to Favorites, and Request Monthly Subscriptions)

He Ao sat in the private room, watching the countdown behind the door gradually reach zero.

Just as it was about to reach zero, the clock hand spun rapidly and pointed to the '4' direction again.

?

what's the situation?

Was it because you originally wanted to go out but couldn't?

Did Yang De and his men make their move?

So this car directly avoided the people from the research institute?

This car is really sneaky.

He Ao slowly got up, walked to the door, and quietly watched the clock tick.

Just then, he faintly heard slow, light footsteps outside the door.

The footsteps only lasted a very short time before disappearing.

He Ao frowned slightly.

He reached out and pulled the doorknob, but the cubicle door in front of him still wouldn't open.

Are there compartments with doors that can be opened? Does this allow the passenger to move freely while the train passes through tunnels?

He remembered what was written on the card.

The 'serial killer' is mixed in with 'us'.

Was the person who opened the door a serial killer?

When you pass through the tunnel, it is the time for the serial killer to hunt. The doors to the 'ordinary people's' cubicles cannot be opened, but the doors to the serial killer's cubicles can be opened.

Perhaps the killer could not only open his own compartment door, but also the doors of other passengers' compartments.

In this pitch-black moment, all the passengers were like lambs locked in a pen, left to be killed at the whim of this serial killer.

He Ao took two steps back and quietly stared at the cubicle door.

A serial killer should possess some kind of tool with a 'guaranteed kill' rule, in order to bridge the gap between special people and superhumans.

To fight against that prop is equivalent to fighting against the rules inside that vehicle, which means fighting against that Class B super train.

Jin Ya is now only vaguely certain that she can break into the compartment and escape, but she is not confident that she can break into the train and escape.

Moreover, the 'tunnel' inside is probably some kind of mysterious realm that can shorten spatial distances, so it is difficult to achieve the terrifying speed of traveling thousands of kilometers in half an hour.

Even if that clone puppet escaped from the train, it might not be able to survive in the mysterious area inside the train.

The worst-case scenario is that Jin Ya will have to abandon that clone puppet and use her other method instead.

However, risks and rewards go hand in hand. From my experience of holding a few promotion ceremonies, the safer and simpler the environment, the better the effect of the ceremony.

The car showed very minor anomalies at the rear, suggesting that there might be some kind of hidden arrangement at the front.

Breaking through that kind of impasse should maximize the effect of the promotion ceremony.

Jie Qiong really wanted to see what Chao Yi looked like before she went through that level of ritual to advance to C-level.

Click——click——click——

Time passed second by second, and the second hand repeatedly returned to 12.

There were no more sounds of movement inside the door, and no unusual activity was heard in the entire corridor.

Finally, the clock hand returned to its starting point, and the seven newly added hours came to an end.

Did the serial killer commit any murders?

Or is it just a matter of whether I heard the noise or not?

Jin Ya reached out and grabbed the doorknob, turned it, and quickly pulled the door open.

"what!!!"

A scream suddenly came from the corridor.

Jin Ya suddenly flung open the door and rushed out.

The first thing that catches my eye

Lin Chichi's body was tense and trembling. Behind her lay a woman covered in blood.

The woman's eyes were wide open, her mouth slightly agape. I was lying face down in front of cubicle number seven, with a tiny wound on my back, as if a sharp blade had pierced my heart from the front.

That was the passenger in compartment number seven, the woman with brown curly hair who had been slapped by Jie Qiong.
