From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

Another group was led by a bespectacled man and a burly man who was unusually tall.

The last group consisted of thirteen people, some panicked, some nervous, and some calm. Upon closer examination, this last group could also be divided into several different subgroups.

How did such an unusual team manage to sneak in without anyone noticing?

They can forcibly implant false memories of "knowing" them into everyone present, but as long as their thought process is not changed, it's only a matter of time before they realize that something is wrong with these twenty people.

"He noticed something was wrong with us."

The bespectacled man adjusted his glasses and said calmly to the handsome, somewhat eerie man, "Even the supreme god is not omnipotent... hmm?"

But as soon as he finished speaking, a voice that was neither male nor female echoed in his mind:

[Revealing information about the Supreme God to non-reincarnators will deduct 10 reward points!]

"what happened?"

The strange-looking man was puzzled.

"Our mission target... has excellent hearing."

Jiang Liu narrowed his eyes: "Is the target me?"

# Chapter 317 Central Continent Team

icy!

Shaking!

"Zheng Zha, are you alright?"

The man with a scar on his face helped the strange man, who was shaking his head, to his feet and asked him with concern.

"fine."

The strange man named Zheng Zha patted his head, stood up, and confirmed his companions, "Zhan Lan, Zhang Jie, Ling Dian, and... Chu Xuan and Arno."

Zheng Zha's gaze turned slightly serious as he looked at Chu Xuan, who was wearing glasses, as if he didn't get along with him. But for now, it was best to understand the situation first.

"This mission may be quite difficult."

After Zhan Lan and Ling Dian woke up, Zhang Jie looked at the fourteen people lying on the ground with a bitter expression and said to Zheng Zha, "Including us, and Arno who created people, it's a difficulty of twenty people!"

Looking at the fourteen people on the ground, Zheng Zha's expression darkened.

He was originally just a white-collar worker, living a muddled life. Feeling bored with life, he was inexplicably moved and clicked on a pop-up window on his computer, entering a place called the Main God Space. He participated in the world of "horror movies," completed tasks, obtained reward points, and gained power. He could barely understand the meaning of "living."

Having witnessed the ferocity of zombies and Lickers, and fought against the ruthlessness of aliens, I can now be considered a veteran.

The difficulty of a horror film is directly proportional to the number of viewers!

Including Chu Xuan's creation of Arno, this horror film involves twenty people, which is bound to be extremely dangerous, and more than half of them may die.

"A Chinese Ghost Story: Republican Era Version & Under One Person Version..."

The woman named Zhan Lan read the words displayed on the black ring watch on her wrist. "What is this all about? Isn't it 'A Chinese Ghost Story'? Why are there so many suffixes? I've seen 'A Chinese Ghost Story,' but there's a Republican era version of this movie? And what's this 'Under One Person' version?"

"The origin of A Chinese Ghost Story can be traced back to the story of Xiaoqian in Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio. It is not as complicated as the movie. It is just a story about a female ghost repaying a scholar's kindness in burying her bones."

Chu Xuan adjusted his glasses, glanced at Zheng Zha, and analyzed, "The Republican era version—this is a hint that the story takes place during the Republican era."

This is not a good era...

Secondly, the Under One Person version—

Just looking at the literal meaning, "Under One Person" evokes the phrase "above ten thousand people," suggesting a plot about power struggles... It's possible that it's a combination of two films or TV shows we haven't seen before.

"There's such a thing?" Zheng Zha looked at Zhang Jie.

"…I think so." Zhang Jie hadn't experienced anything like this, but he confirmed Zheng Zha's guess, "Maybe the main god changed the difficulty of the plot."

"Speaking of which, there's a part of the plot you don't know?" Zhan Lan stared at Chu Xuan.

"I generally don't watch ghost movies, they're not scientifically accurate; as for political intrigue movies... the plots depicted in those movies are all nonsense, I won't waste my brain cells on them."

Chu Xuan's glasses reflected the light, making it impossible to tell if he was lying. "In short, the advantage of the plot is now negligible for us. Perhaps this is the Supreme God reminding us..."

He stopped abruptly halfway through his sentence and brought up another matter, saying, "Let's take a look at the mission and its limitations."

Zheng Zha read it aloud: "They must not stray more than one kilometer from the 'river'; if they exceed one kilometer, they will be wiped out!"

Mission 1: After arriving at Lanruo Temple, kill Jiang Liu. Two S-rank side quests, 50,000 reward points!

Task Two: ......

"Holy crap!"

Zhang Jie also noticed the mission on his wristwatch and exclaimed, "S-level side quests! Two of them! 50,000 reward points! If I pull this off, I can drink a bowl of porridge and throw it away!"

"I'm just afraid I won't live to enjoy them!"

At midnight, he poured cold water on everyone's hopes, saying, "How many horror movies have we even seen? We haven't even seen an A-level side storyline yet. To complete this mission one, we'll all be wiped out!"

Upon hearing this, everyone had no choice but to calm down.

“Zero Point is right.” Zheng Zha nodded. “This task doesn’t force us to complete it, so we don’t need to worry about it.”

In addition to this task, there is a second task: assist Jiang Liu in exploring Lanruo Temple. The side quest and reward points will vary depending on the situation.

Lanruo Temple was destroyed and returned to the Main God Space.

"Neither of these tasks is mandatory; destroying Lanruo Temple is a condition for our return."

Zhan Lan said, "So theoretically, we don't have to do it. Even if we don't know the plot, we can roughly guess some things from the hints in this mission. That is, 'Jiang Liu' has the ability to destroy Lanruo Temple."

"But considering that God won't let us get through this horror movie peacefully—"

Zhang Jie was worried, "It might change the difficulty of the plot, causing 'Jiang Liu' to fail. We might have to help him, otherwise we might be eliminated by the main god."

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

At that moment, the fourteen people who had been lying on the ground awoke.

Zheng Zha gave Zhan Lan a look.

Zhan Lan was grateful and explained the rules of horror movies to the fourteen newcomers—explaining the rules would earn her one hundred reward points.

However, some of the newcomers were unwilling to believe that they were already in a "horror movie" and wanted to cause trouble, but Chu Xuan ordered Arno to beat them up.

"Chu Xuan! You!" Zheng Zha's eyes were filled with rage upon seeing this.

"Calm down."

Zhang Jie quickly hugged Zheng Zha.

Chu Xuan simply adjusted his glasses and pointed to the forty-odd people outside the transparent blue light barrier, saying, "Although we don't know the plot, these people dared to go to Lanruo Temple, so they must be experts, or at the very least, strong and healthy."

Moreover, they are most likely organizing a team right now, so what kind of identity do you think the main god will assign us?

Let these fourteen guys wander around—

Have you thought about the consequences?

Zheng Zha had no rebuttal.

After all, Chu Xuan's analysis was true. If those "NPCs" outside the arena were all experts, then these people would at least have to act like experts, otherwise their identities would easily be suspected.

In the Resident Evil arc, Zheng Zha, Zhan Lan, Zhang Jie, and others were assigned the identity of "security guards," but they were still suspected by the mercenaries.

Not to mention that the people outside this light barrier are very likely to be experts, and their clothing is completely out of step with this era!

As for their clothing, it's actually quite easy to explain. Just say that they studied in the West. After all, most people in the Republic of China era didn't know how advanced the West had become.

However, if these fourteen newcomers act recklessly, it is highly likely that all the experts, including "Jiang Liu", will become wary of them.

Therefore, Zheng Zha, Zhang Jie, Zhan Lan, and Ling Dian could only acquiesce to Chu Xuan's actions.

"Hello, my name is Qi Tengyi. I have research experience in archaeology and speak multiple languages. I hope to join your team."

The young man named Qi Tengyi glanced at the tall Arno, swallowed hard, and hurriedly said to Zheng Zha, "I've seen A Chinese Ghost Story. Although I haven't seen the 'Republic of China version,' the original A Chinese Ghost Story is set in the Southern Song Dynasty, right? Perhaps some related historical artifacts will remain... I can definitely help!"

Welcome to the company!

Zheng Zha was taken aback, realizing that Qi Tengyo was telling the truth, and then extended his hand to him...

# Chapter 318 Honesty

As the protective barrier separating the Central Continent Team disappeared, the entire Central Continent Team split into three smaller teams.

The team consists of veterans and newcomers, led by Zheng Zha, including Zhan Lan, Zhang Jie, Ling Dian, and Qi Tengyi; veterans, led by Chu Xuan and Arno; and a thirteen-member team composed mainly of newcomers.

Among the thirteen-person team, there was a "young man" dressed in black. After understanding the situation, he didn't immediately choose sides. Instead, he focused his attention on "Jiang Liu," considering the possibility of completing Mission One...

···

"Our target has excellent hearing."

As Chu Xuan finished speaking, Jiang Liu realized that the twenty people's target was him, and he couldn't help but become interested. He thought to himself, "The Main God Space? I did read Infinite Flow in my previous life, but I only had a vague idea about the beginning and origin of Infinite Flow."

With this in mind, Jiang Liu decided to test the waters later.

He'll meet force with force and water with earth. Although at this stage he's still interested in tangible benefits, such as the Qin King's Bone-Illuminating Mirror and the Tianxing Meteorite.

However, we must also determine the fundamental purpose of these outsiders.

After all, the existence of the ghost realm near Lanruo Temple already carries many uncertainties. If something like the Main God Space or reincarnators were to appear as well—

There are just too many uncertainties.

We must first "straighten things out".

It depends on whether this team's mission is to target him, or whether their goals or interests align.

If it is the former.

He had no choice but to strike first! The reincarnated ones must have a lot of good stuff on them!

"Alright, that's all I wanted to say. Let's go."

After saying that, Smith took out his wand again, pointed it at his leg, and ran like the wind, covering twenty or thirty meters in the blink of an eye.
