After the archive is damaged, I live in another world

Does that mean that what you, the King of Eternal Solitude, couldn't do, the Human Evil Dragon Envoy accomplished for you?

Then you, the king of demons...

Failure or not?

The King of Eternal Solitude sent a message: "Did you just... have some disrespectful thoughts in your mind?"

Xu Mu immediately denied it: "No."

"what……"

"King Lonely, I have no objection to taking back the replica. But the elf should stay. We've been together for almost half a year, and we've developed feelings for each other! Taking her back would be cruel to both me and her!"

The King of Eternal Solitude pondered for a moment. "Hmm... not that it's impossible. Then, you should keep the Underworld Warrior as well. If I take it back abruptly, it might cause some bugs, which would be very annoying."

"..."

King of Eternal Loneliness, you should hire a few more senior engineers.

It is a rare opportunity to have a direct conversation with the Lonely King.

Xu Mu seized the opportunity and asked directly: "King Lonely, can I be resurrected if I die now?"

"It will trigger the resurrection of the Underworld Warrior, but it cannot be resurrected infinitely."

Xu Mu asked again: "Is the elf okay with its current condition?"

"The power of rules is too strong for her. But she is my creation, so she will not perish. It just takes three to five days to absorb it."

Xu Mu asked again: "Has the new function you mentioned last time been developed?"

"Things aren't going well. I see you're doing so well that it doesn't seem necessary. Xu Mu, win the World Cup final and I'll give you more help."

"?"

What does the World Cup final have to do with you?

Xu Mu hesitated for a moment, then finally asked, "What will happen if we win the World Cup?"

"Let's talk about it after we win. Bye."

Click, the King of Eternal Loneliness is offline.

Xu Mu looked left and right, and knowing that the elf would be fine, he changed to a more comfortable position, lay down, and began to read.

……

……

There were no problems for the next two days.

After traveling through time and space, he finally earned a place for himself. Xu Mu was happy to enjoy this moment of tranquility and stayed at home for two days.

but--

There are always people coming and trying to break this tranquility.

"Excuse me—is this Mr. Xu Muxu's home?"

Several people in baseball caps suddenly appeared and made loud noises at the door.

The staff of the Central Land Holy Spirit Duel Association pushed them and said, "Gentlemen, this is Mr. Xu's private residence. Please do not disturb him! For interviews regarding Team Earth and Mr. Xu, please go to the League Association and ask our staff!"

Protecting Xu Mu's information is the consensus of the central government.

The association had already sent people to squat at the door of Xu Mu's house to prevent others from coming to spy on the news.

However, Xu Mu and the Earth Team's performance in the preliminaries was too amazing, and they are now regarded as "dark horses" and are attracting everyone's attention.

His doorstep is always crowded with unwilling reporters and other people trying to get first-hand information.

On this day, a unique letter appeared in the mailbox. Xu Mu took it out and found that the address of the letter was No. 7 Zhengong Street.

No. 7 Zhengong Street?

This is……

The address of the previous "player".

PS: My work and rest schedule is broken and updates are slow!

I will update one chapter today, and there are two more chapters on the way, so don’t worry!

Chapter 305 #302 Pete's Death!

Dear Mr. Xu,

Excuse me for disturbing you, but we are members of Pete's adventure group and his closest comrades.

There are many strange things about Peter's death. After six months of investigation, we have discovered that a mysterious organization called the "Monitoring Killing Society" is likely closely linked to Peter's death.

As a fellow "player", you may have been monitored by the "Monitoring Society".

We are willing to provide you with necessary assistance. If you want to know more information, please come to the Magic Academy's library.

We'll wait for you until ten o'clock in the evening.

……

The content of the letter was something like this.

Xu Mu was completely confused and had no idea what these "Pete's comrades" were talking about.

The killing watch committee?

what is that.

What made Xu Mu even more curious was that... Brother Pete didn't seem to keep his origins secret and directly told others that he was a "player".

Xu Mu hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to go and take a look.

Brother Pete's "comrades-in-arms" acted very cautiously. The meeting place they designated was at the Magic Research Institute, which to a large extent dispelled Xu Mu's vigilance and also demonstrated their sincerity.

He used the invisibility spell and walked out of the house silently.

When he reached the corner, he hailed a taxi and rushed to the Magic Research Institute.

Magic Academy, Great Library.

A young man in a blue robe sat behind a desk, a book open before him. He looked to be in his twenties or thirties, quite young. He wasn't particularly handsome, but the unusual calmness between his brows gave him a sense of reliability.

He waited quietly, and when he saw a black-haired young man emerge from the gate, he hurriedly stood up and greeted him: "Sir, odd things change, but even things remain the same."

"!"

The black-haired young man who suddenly appeared was, of course, Xu Mu.

Upon hearing this code, Xu Mu was slightly startled and said, "The symbol depends on the quadrant."

Right!

The blue-robed youth's expression remained unchanged. He continued, "Who invited you here?"

Xu Mu simply replied, "The King of Eternal Loneliness."

"Ah, Mr. Xu, it's you!" The young man in the blue robe extended his hand. "Hello, my name is Alec, and I'm Pete's teammate!"

"Hello."

Compared to the cumbersome confirmation method of the Alexander brothers, Xu Mu easily saw through his identity.

The reason is simple.

After checking the box to display game information, five large characters appeared above Alec's head: "Pete's teammates."

After the two sides shook hands, the interpersonal network was updated.

Xu Mu clicked on it for a closer look and confirmed that there was no doubt about Alex's identity. He was the teammate of the former player Pete.

Alec gestured with his hands and said, "Mr. Xu, you came here because you received the letter, right?"

Xu Mu nodded: "Yes, but... I don't understand what happened."

"I will explain everything to you. Please follow me."

Alex took Xu Mu and headed towards the library.

Is the library a place for conversation?

Xu Mu was startled and said, "Alec, how about we talk somewhere else?"

Alec shook his head. "No, the Great Library is the best place for this conversation. It's private and safe enough here. Mr. Xu, the content of our next conversation...is not suitable for public disclosure."

"..."

is it?

……

……

In the library.

Alec said in a light voice, "Mr. Xu, do you know how Brother Peter was killed?"

Xu Mu was not very relaxed: "I don't know... I heard that he was attacked by a monster and died."

"Heh. As a fellow player, I believe you understand how ridiculous this death is. Brother Peter was incredibly powerful and well-equipped. How could he possibly die so easily? Especially at the hands of a monster!"

Alec scoffed, a chill in his tone.

"If our investigation is correct, Brother Pete was framed and killed!"

Xu Mu blinked: "Tell me in detail."

Pete was indeed killed by a monster.

The circumstances of that day were clear: while carrying out a commission, Peter encountered a full-grown Sakura Fire Dragon. Unprepared, the Sakura Fire Dragon's breath pierced Peter and his brother's heart, roasting them to a crisp and killing them instantly.

Afterwards, everyone carried Pete back to headquarters and tried their best to treat him, but in the end they were unable to save his life.

but--

There are many doubts in this matter.

Alec said with a serious expression, "Mr. Xu, the Sakura Fire Dragon isn't native to the Central Land. This sub-dragon species, excelling in both poison and fire and possessing exceptional combat power, is a monster found only in the Eastern Continent. They simply can't adapt to the humid environment of the Central Land. Isn't it suspicious that it appeared here, and happened to run into Brother Peter? More importantly, fire and poison are Brother Peter's weaknesses. According to our thinking... it's very likely that someone deliberately released a Sakura Fire Dragon here, specifically to take Brother Peter's life!"

what……

Xu Mu shook his head: "Perhaps this is just an unfortunate accident."

Alec was not anxious, but rather very calm.

He pulled a letter of authorization from his pocket and said, "Indeed, that alone is enough. We cannot rule out the possibility that this was an accident. This is the letter of authorization Brother Peter received when he was murdered. Please take a look."

Xu Mu took it and looked at it——

I didn't see anything strange.

This commission was both lucrative and challenging. The client was the Dark Dawn Adventure Group, who had announced that one of their teams had lost contact in the "Death Swamp Caverns" a few days prior. They were now recruiting warriors to search for the team there, demanding they find them alive or dead.

In terms of rewards, they gave three times the gold coins of the S-level commission standard, and also gave a "black turquoise" as a gift.

Xu Mu pushed the commission back and asked, "Is this... strange? Finding the missing team members is a very common commission. The risks of such commissions are obvious, so the high reward is understandable."

Alec shook his head and said, "The key point is the black turquoise. Brother Pete needs the black turquoise. In order to obtain it, Brother Pete did not hesitate to put aside an ongoing commission and focus his main energy on this task!"

"Um……"

Xu Mu, still considering.

Considering these two things together, there does seem to be a vague connection.

However, the possibility that it was purely accidental remains high.

Putting aside other things, if all this is a conspiracy, then who could bring the Sakura Fire Dragon from the Eastern Continent to the Central Land?
