"Another brilliant strategist."

Li Qianyi was taken aback.

He certainly remembered this unlucky fellow, who had been defeated by him twice in a row using his duel emblem.

Before long, the other party had already joined the Church of Eternal Darkness.

This was, to a greater or lesser extent, unethical for those churches.

But from the perspective of players, a group known for producing traitors, it's perfectly normal behavior.

Li Qianyi looked at his phone.

[You have completed a prayer to the Eternal Darkness. The 'Mystic' potion has been digested. Current digestion progress: 80%]

"Being chased by three Sequence 7 players, this is very likely a 'werewolf' and a 'serial killer'."

"This is indeed a very dangerous mission for players at Sequence 9."

But he possesses the 'Key to the Shadow Dimension,' and at his peak, his combat power is comparable to that of a Sequence 5, which gives Li Qianyi a perplexing feeling.

It's as if the goddess specially assigned this task to him just to give him the 'talisman'.

It's a bit like I made a plate of dumplings specifically for the sake of vinegar.

......

Nanjing University, School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Advisor's Office.

The female instructor with glasses looked at Li Qianyi with some confusion.

"Why do you suddenly want to take a week off?"

"My uncle fell off the ladder and broke his leg. I have to go to the hospital to take care of him for a few days."

Li Qianyi remained unfazed, after all, he had occasionally used this excuse to skip classes back in high school.

His uncle is already used to it.

Although the counselor was suspicious, he did not disagree.

They simply made him sign a guarantee that anything that happened outside the school was unrelated to the school.

Because he was stuck on a level, Li Qianyi couldn't play the game for the past few days.

However, he suspected that the "miracle" mentioned by Amon was the key to obtaining the fourth fragment of the Profane Tablet.

After all, only source matter can fight against source matter, and the 'Fragment of Miracle' is a remnant of Mr. Fool's power, so it must be closely related to the 'Source Castle'.

Li Qianyi packed his things and took the high-speed train to Shanghai.

He glanced at the news on his phone; Shanghai had actually been quite turbulent these past few days.

Unexplained deaths, missing persons, and various fraud and criminal cases are also frequent.

The police were in a state of panic, and the citizens were filled with anxiety.

Li Qianyi could more or less sense that there was an "extraordinary" influence involved.

The journey on the high-speed train wasn't long, but having a chattering little devil next to him made Li Qianyi feel like each day was an eternity.

The boy was about ten years old, with a shaved head, wearing a hospital gown, and had very big eyes.

The boy was very outgoing; as soon as he saw him sit down, he started chattering and calling him "brother" nonstop.

"Brother, do you want some potato chips?"

"Brother, would you like this candy?"

"Brother, are you in college?"

Li Qianyi and he were complete strangers. Li Qianyi preferred quiet and initially found it hard to stand, but he endured it.

After all, he was just a child, and a sick person, and they even offered him food.

It wasn't until the boy went to the toilet that the man sitting next to him apologized to Li Qianyi, feeling embarrassed.

"When a child has osteosarcoma and is in severe pain, he can't help but talk to distract himself."

Li Qianyi paused for a moment, then continued, "You're going to Shanghai for medical treatment?"

"Yes, I heard that a new doctor recently joined a hospital in Shanghai, and he's very good at treating this kind of disease."

The man answered, but his tone still betrayed a sense of confusion.

"Where's the child's mother?" Li Qianyi glanced at the table.

"We got divorced. I'm not very capable, and I have a little burden to carry on."

The man smiled and said, "Let's take a look; maybe there'll be a chance."

Li Qianyi fell silent.

He was behind him by the car door next to the restroom when he saw the boy trembling by the window.

Upon seeing Li Qianyi, the boy forced a smile across his pale face: "Brother."

Li Qianyi knew that the pharmacist's power could save him, and so could the Rose Bishop's.

But he was only a Sequence 9 Mystic, and the protection of the Shadow only allowed him to kill, not save.

Li Qianyi patted his bald head and said, "Aren't you tired of standing? Go sit down."

This time, Li Qianyi listened patiently as the boy spoke.

The three parted ways after getting off at the station, and the boy even gave him a box of Xizhilang liquor as a final gift.

After putting his things away at the hotel, Li Qianyi covered his face with a Nuo mask and went to Jingshuiyuan Community.

Using the shadows as cover, he climbed to the third floor and saw a young man, about 16 or 7 years old, playing King of Glory.

"He doesn't seem very bright," Li Qianyi thought, shaking his head as he realized the other person was a reader.

Judging from the current situation, the other party is unaware that they have already been placed on the cult's kill list in reality.

The goddess asked him to protect her for seven days, and Li Qianyi wouldn't just do it casually.

He plans to first investigate potential illegal players in the surrounding area to eliminate as many potential risks as possible.

This was originally quite difficult.

But Li Qianyi has strong inspiration and is also blessed by the "true creator".

Soon, he noticed signs of unusual activity in a nearby area.

He came to a small alley and saw several men loading a familiar, thin figure onto a bread cart.

Li Qianyi recognized him at a glance as the boy with osteosarcoma from the high-speed train.

What is he doing here? Where is his father?

Li Qianyi was a little confused, but soon he heard several people's voices.

"After we finish this job, the boss will give us the 'Demon Street' dungeon card, right?" one of the men said.

"Yes, completing the 'normal' level story dungeon can yield at least several hundred Divine Faith points per run, and with good luck, you might even get Sequence 8 potions and potion recipes."

"This game really gives us a chance to change our fate, hehe, praise the sun."

"Hey, be careful not to kill him. This little guy has a very special illness. According to the boss, it has special significance in mysticism, depending on his birth date and time."

As one of them was speaking, he suddenly looked up and saw a tall, thin figure wearing a Nuo mask standing at the entrance of the alley.

The air froze for about two seconds.

After a moment, a young man who didn't look very old exclaimed, "Oh no, boss, he saw us! What do we do?"

"What else can we do? Let's do it together. Even if the boss doesn't want it, we can still get a good price in Thailand and Myanmar."

The man called "boss" was wearing a hat and looked very ordinary; he was the kind of person who would go unnoticed on the street.

"Are people now so open about being human traffickers?" Li Qianyi asked, quite puzzled.

"There are some things I've told you, but you still wouldn't understand. You can only blame your bad luck."

Li Qianyi looked up and checked the surrounding area for surveillance cameras.

"Stop looking, we removed the surveillance cameras a long time ago."

Just then, a man carrying a stick rushed over. He was very strong and fast.

Li Qianyi tilted his head, and a dark shadow emerged from his shadow, like ink dripping into clear water, quickly covering the walls and ground of the entire alley.

The moment the moonlight disappeared, the light from the streetlights at the alley entrance was also swallowed up, plunging the entire alley into an unnatural, absolute darkness.

"Boss, what the hell is that thing?"

"How should I know? Run."

"what……"

Amidst screams, a black figure, like the Grim Reaper, flashed through the alleyway, its massive scythe slicing through the air.
