After the archive is damaged, I live in another world

If he had such ability, wouldn't it be easier for him to just go up and kill Pete?

Alec finally said, "Mr. Xu, I know these two facts alone aren't enough to convince you. But I still have one last doubt—in fact, Brother Peter was once out of danger. With our relentless treatment, his condition gradually improved. But after a dressing change, Brother Peter's condition deteriorated rapidly without warning, and he eventually died of organ failure!"

Alec's voice was filled with deep hatred.

He continued, "After investigation, we found that the medication had been switched. The attending physician also disappeared, and his body was not discovered until a month ago."

Chapter 306 #303 Play as a player!

Why, why is it getting more and more mysterious?

meaning is--

Is someone deliberately trying to kill Pete?

why?

Xu Mu didn't care whether Alec's speculation was correct for the time being. He asked directly: "Suppose - Alec, let's assume that what you said is true. I want to know, who hates Pete so much that they would go to such lengths to kill him?"

Alec took out a thick document from his bag and said, "Mr. Xu, this may hold the answer. Please take a look."

Xu Mu looked at the document, which was as thick as a dictionary, and didn't want to read it very much: "What is this? It's too thick. I don't want to read it."

Alec shook his finger. "You'd better take a look. This is the biography of all the 'players' we've collected—by the way, Mr. Xu, these players are all dead."

"..."

Xu Mu glanced at Alex, took the document and began to read.

The first one is "The Invincible Shark King".

The people from twenty years ago were crazy and weird, and their words were full of new words that people couldn't understand, which made people confused.

On the fourth day after arriving on Azure Star, he died of drowning after drinking alcohol;

Second, the "Reviser".

He was also a character from twenty years ago. He had a relatively calm personality and rarely appeared in public. He was very strong in fighting and was keen on politics.

After becoming the lord of the port city in the Central Land, he stated in his public speech at the inauguration ceremony that he "came from another world" and wanted to "bring revolution to the Blue Planet and let the people of the Blue Planet enjoy a better life."

A month later, he was assassinated by the opposition;

Third place, fourth place.

All the players up to the eleventh one have one distinct characteristic - they will die soon after revealing their identity as "players".

The more Xu Mu looked, the more frightened and horrified he became.

He put down the information in his hand and turned to look at Alec: "Is this information credible?"

Alec's face was expressionless. "That's why I arranged the meeting place here. Mr. Xu, do you want me to take you to check the collection? All the information you just saw can be found in this library."

The matter is of great importance and it is impossible not to confirm it.

Xu Mu simply said, "Take me to see it."

Alec was startled for a moment, then smiled and said, "Very good, very good. Mr. Xu, your pragmatic attitude makes me more confident that you are a qualified partner. Please follow me, I will take you to verify it."

The library of the Magic Academy contains a huge amount of books and newspapers.

It also included every issue of the Central Land's most authoritative official newspaper, the Tide Daily. Alec was very familiar with the process and quickly found every issue that appeared in the information. Xu Mu read through them one by one.

Sure enough.

Alec looked at Xu Mu's obviously solemn face and said, "Mr. Xu, the information I just showed you is the case in which we confirmed that he was a 'player' and 'victim' after screening. In fact, we have found many other cases of victims, but we didn't find reliable evidence that he was a player, so we didn't include it."

Xu Mu turned around and asked, "There are so many people being killed, people dying every day. How do you identify them?"

"That's right. Players like you, Brother Pete, have some obvious traits—you all appear suddenly yet possess exceptional skill. You're often acquainted with people you shouldn't know, defying common sense and logic. Your behavior and conversational habits are vastly different from those of ordinary adventurers. Based on these traits, you can always identify several 'suspected players,' all of whom have appeared within the past twenty years."

Alec explained patiently.

He looked at Xu Mu and continued, "But... you hid yourself very well before. If we hadn't met beforehand and knew you had come to see Brother Peter, I'm afraid we wouldn't have noticed you. But now..."

Alec was silent for a long time.

Ok.

Now it's not so well hidden.

Xu Mu performed brilliantly in the preliminaries. If there really were someone specifically targeting "players", Xu Mu would probably have been included in the observation list.

"..."

Xu Mu pondered for a moment and asked, "Come to think of it... do you know Chen Wansan? Chen Wansan is also a player, the one-armed one. Was his lost arm also severed by this so-called 'Monitoring Killing Society'?"

Alec shook his head. "Of course I know Mr. Chen Wansan. We even had dinner together. Mr. Chen's injury has nothing to do with the Murder Supervision Association. He was just careless and not careful enough."

"what……"

It means he's a bad cook, right?

Xu Mu nodded and said, "Alec, I understand what you're saying. I also suspect... that Brother Peter might have been assassinated. What exactly is this 'Assassination Society' you're talking about?"

Alec shook his head. "I don't know. Their assassination attempt on Brother Peter wasn't a clean slate, so they had to resort to a second attempt, bribing the attending physician to poison him. Over the past six months, I've been investigating various locations, and finally learned about the "Monitoring Society" from a senior member of the Dark Dawn Adventure Group. But their specific structure and leadership remain unclear... We only know they're collaborating with the Dark Dawn Adventure Group."

Do you have a direction?

Xu Mu asked again, "So, why did you invite me here today? Do you need my help to investigate this Dark Dawn Adventure Group?"

Alec shook his head and said, "No, a forced investigation would likely alert the enemy. Mr. Xu, our plan is more sophisticated. We hope the Murder Supervision Association will take the initiative to contact us."

How can it be?

Xu Mu was about to ask a question, but he quickly reacted: "I understand... You guys are trying to pretend to be 'players' and actively lure the killer to come to you."

"Yes! That's right! Mr. Xu is truly a reliable partner. He understood our intentions so quickly!" Alec seemed very excited. "Would you like to help me? With a true player like you guiding me, I believe I can perform more like a 'player'!"

Xu Mu looked him up and down and said, "Alec, you don't need to act. I am the player, and I can act in my true colors."

Alec shook his head solemnly, "No! Although we don't know what kind of organization the Killing Supervisor Society is, its power is unquestionable! Mr. Xu, this is the revenge of our 'Pete Adventure Group'. We can't let you be in the most dangerous place! Please rest assured, my main job is an actor, and adventurer is just a side job. As long as you are a reference, I can perfectly play the role of a 'player'!"

ha?

With your ordinary looks, can you be an actor?

Xu Mu didn't comment. He just said, "Alright! Before I officially join, I want to see how you're prepared. You should have a plan, right?"

Alec nodded: "Mr. Xu, please follow me. I will take you to meet the other members."

Chapter 307 #304 Whose face is this?

No. 33 Hyacinth Street, a single-family two-story building.

Xu Mu and Alex drove here. Alex opened the door and led the way.

"..."

Xu Mu remained silent, feeling that the problem was serious.

After several adventures, he felt that although adventure was very dangerous, it was not impossible to deal with. Why did all those players die?

At first, he thought those players were not careful enough, or were careless and failed to adapt to the change in their status, which was why they ended up like this.

Now it seems that there are people who act as "scavengers" and specialize in dealing with players like them.

Why didn't the King of Eternal Solitude reveal such an important thing?

Doesn't she know about this?

"Alec, is Mr. Xu here?"

The two walked into the living room and saw two women. They had the same appearance, each with fair skin, beautiful features, large breasts and slender waists. They were also clearly at the legendary level, exuding the aura of a strong person.

The only difference is the color of the clothes they wear.

One white, one black.

Look at the name again——

"Moonlight Hill Tower" and "Corona Hill Tower".

What’s strange is that the two of them are not “Pete’s teammates” but “Pete’s close friends”.

Although there is only one word difference, the gap is more than just a little.

Alec nodded and pointed at Xu Mu behind him and said, "This is Mr. Xu."

"..."

Moonlight looked at Xu Mu cautiously without saying a word.

"Hello, Mr. Xu."

Corona was enthusiastic, showing a very warm smile.

Xu Mu looked around and asked, "I seem to have heard... Brother Peter has an adventure group of twenty people. Are there only three of you here?"

Corona's smile remained undimmed. "Now that Pete is dead, the scum who gathered here naturally dispersed. Moonlight, Alec, and I are Pete's most loyal friends. Only the three of us remain."

Alec also said, "Mr. Xu, it's easier to keep secrets when there are fewer people. Please rest assured, my sister Hilta and I both have relatively good fighting capabilities. We are confident that if the people from the Monitoring Society show up, we will be able to bite off a piece of their flesh even if we don't die!"

"..."

No matter how strong an adventurer is, there is a limit to his strength.

In the world of Canglan Star, legend is the admission ticket for the strong. If you really want to be powerful, you still have to rely on other plug-ins such as rule power and magic power.

Moreover, the enemy is in the dark while we are in the light, and you don’t know when they will attack you. You might get killed before you even make a move.

Xu Mu didn't comment, but just said: "So, specifically, what are your plans?"

Alec was sincere. "Although we've been investigating for six months, intelligence is scarce. The Assassination Society is a very mysterious organization, and we can't catch them. Therefore... we plan to take a more radical approach and proactively cooperate with the Dark Dawn Adventure Group."

"Oh……"

This is a good choice.

Just a little risky.

Alec took out a letter of commission and said, "Mr. Xu, please read this. This is a commission for the capture of 'Fenglaiyuan'. Fenglaiyuan is an abyssal-level maze that has existed for five years and remains unconquered. The Adventurer's Association issued the commission two weeks ago, confirming that the Dark Dawn Adventure Group will serve as the 'flagship bearer' and calling on other capable individuals to join the capture. We have been selected."

Xu Mu looked down and saw that it was indeed the case.

The maze is divided into five levels, from low to high: Tiger, Devil, Purgatory, Abyss and Devil's Castle.

The difficulty of the Abyss Maze is quite high, and even a level 100 person would have a hard time going there.

"Strategy on Fenglaiyuan"——

Judging from the tone of the letter of authorization, they plan to gather a high-level team of thirty to fifty people to go there.

It was a good choice for Alec to choose this opportunity to get in touch with Dark Dawn.

only……

Xu Mu looked at Alec, then at the Hilta sisters, and said, "Is that okay? You three are Brother Pete's teammates. The people of Dark Dawn should be familiar with you, right?"

Alec smiled faintly. "Don't worry about that. Although the Hilta sisters are both Legends, they used to only handle internal affairs. They never ventured out, nor did they show up in public. The possibility of the Watcher knowing them is very low... As for me, I'm a Shadowhunter, and I can 'many faces'."

Xu Mu was startled: "Are you also a Shadow Hunter?"

Alec said calmly, "I've already said that my main job is an actor. All the famous actors on Blue Planet are Shadowhunters without exception—because the skill 'Thousand Faces' greatly enhances theatrical performance."

what……

reasonable.

If you say so, then I, Xu, can also be an actor.

After being hit by the illusion, Xu Mu's [Thousand Faces], [Creation of Great Light] and [Demon Transformation] all returned, and he is now the actual incarnation of the Four Legendary Adventurers and Massage.

Alec looked at Xu Mu and continued, "Mr. Xu, the team attacking Fenglaiyuan will leave tomorrow morning. Can you come with us? I'm not sure if I can play the role of a 'player' well and inconspicuously. With your guidance and correction, I think I can better attract the attention of the 'Monitoring Society'."

no problem.

Life is at stake, so no matter how troublesome it is, we have to do it.

Xu Mu raised his hand and said, "Where is the meeting place?"
