Lucky billion players, you've never seen one before / I can accumulate my own luck

Lu Baizhi looked around curiously, but couldn't see any designs resembling the underworld.

The way we entered was also quite unusual; the path beneath our feet appeared in such a mysterious way.

No wonder her luck never seemed to find a place.

There is no fixed entrance here. The path only appears when the "scam monster" runs back, accompanied by "identity verification," which is a bizarre method.

At this moment, all four of them were more curious than nervous, and none of them were worried about whether they would be able to get out.

If it really is a dead end, we can simply give up on a high rating and leave the instance.

Having already fulfilled one of the mission's conditions, they were in no passive position whatsoever.

"How about we check out that scam operation up ahead first?"

Mercury suggested.

The two monsters from before have disappeared without a trace. The surrounding trees easily obstruct the view, and no one knows where they went.

Without a clear understanding of the situation, the only way to find the remains is to use the real-world Wa City as a reference point and explore further.

The other three nodded, accepted the suggestion, and walked along the path.

However, after taking only a few steps, an anomaly occurred.

Mercury and Lu Baizhi instinctively covered their heads, their expressions showing some pain.

Li Xian frowned, his expression becoming more serious.

Fan Xiao felt a sudden sense of unease in his mind, his eyes thoughtful.

The feeling... is like having a wet towel covering your face, with water constantly being poured over you, making it harder and harder to breathe, and a growing sense of fear.

Immediately afterwards, a chill swept over his entire body. He felt as if he had been plunged into cold water, with only his head above water. The discomfort accumulated at an extremely rapid pace, as if the process had been accelerated.

This is... a water dungeon?

The feelings of the victims before their deaths reappear?

Because his mental strength was close to that of an A-level player, Fan Xiao suppressed most of the painful feelings and emotional resonance, and his mentality did not change much.

"Uh……!"

Lu Baizhi suddenly let out a soft scream. She felt intense pain in her feet, as if her Achilles tendons had been severed.

She instinctively knelt on the ground, and it took her several seconds to adjust before the pain subsided.

Fan Xiao reached out and pulled her up, saying, "The emotions of the victims from their lifetime probably linger on this land, drifting around. It's a kind of mental intervention. If you can't stand it, use your talent to protect yourself."

"Ah."

Lu Baizhi nodded, activated her talent to open a healing field, enveloping herself and her three teammates.

The abnormal state caused by mental intervention can also be cured by her talent.

Immediately, Mercury and Li Xian felt much more relaxed.

Mercury, in particular, lost his pallor and regained his rosy complexion—he had just felt his hands and feet being sawed off.

What should have been a prolonged pain was concentrated into a single, intense episode within a very short period of time, which is far more painful than a normal amputation of a hand or foot.

If it's beheading... the combined agony of several victims being beheaded might actually cause a person to suffer a mental death.

This kind of psychological attack is very dangerous!

"Don't worry about me, I'm fine here. You should conserve your energy and let's speed things up."

Fan Xiao reminded Lu Baizhi and then quickly walked forward.

Lu Baizhi did not refute, and very obediently followed the advice, closing her domain and stopping the healing of Fan Xiao.

Ignoring their exhaustion, the four doubled their speed.

During the run, Lu Baizhi discovered that her mental energy was being consumed unusually quickly, and in no time, half of it was gone.

Her delicate brows furrowed slightly, and shock appeared in her eyes.

"not good."

She had to stop activating her talent and reminded Li Xian and Mercury, "Using my talent here consumes mental energy at an abnormally high rate. I can't hold on any longer."

“Our physical strength is being depleted quickly, and this alternate dimension seems to have a lot of negative buffs.” Li Xian nodded: “Since we can’t hold on, let’s conserve our strength for now. We’ll rely on our willpower to get through this emotional resonance with the dead.”

"Ah."

Lu Baizhi took out a mental recovery potion from her storage space and began to take it.

Halfway through, the pain from the saw head suddenly struck!

"Cough...cough...!"

She sprayed the medicine out of her mouth and almost choked to death.

Fan Xiao turned around, wiped her mouth and chin with his sleeve, and reminded her, "Don't do anything unnecessary for now, just bear with it."

"Ouch……!"

Mercury suddenly let out a wail.

The three of them looked at him.

His forehead was covered in sweat, his cheeks had turned pale again, and he said with a terrible expression, "It feels like my intestines were ripped out... Damn it!"

"Speed ​​up."

Li Xian patted Mercury on the shoulder.

As they continued their journey, they were constantly subjected to various forms of pain.

Whipping, beating, electric shocks, bloodletting, sawing off hands and legs, ripping tendons, beheading, ripping out the stomach, removing eyeballs... these tortures tormented their minds wave after wave.

After a long period of fear and despair, emotions begin to transform into anger, murderous intent, and madness.

The blood vessels in their eyes became increasingly visible, and their eyes grew redder and redder.

As they approached the perimeter of the fraud base, Mercury and Lu Baizhi's faces were almost bloodless, but their emotions were unusually excited.

Fan Xiao and Li Xian are in better condition, but they have also been affected to some extent.

And this impact is intensifying.

At one point, the four suddenly noticed that several figures had appeared around them, seemingly out of nowhere.

All the figures had blood-red eyes and distorted faces, as if they were enduring all sorts of pain, with large and small shrill roars bursting from their throats from time to time.

But the emotions they shouted were not mournful; instead, they were filled with a sticky malice.

These figures spotted Fan Xiao and his companions, and one by one they turned to look over, but surprisingly they didn't immediately surround and attack them. Instead, they stared intently at the four of them.

As time went by, these figures became more and more numerous, soon filling the surrounding open space, and even the nearby woods became their haunt.

Some stood beside the trees, some were hung upside down from the branches by a rope, and some had their rotting heads sticking out from the ground.

Whether Fan Xiao and his companions looked up or down, they could see countless figures all around them, seemingly endless in number.

Pairs of blood-red eyes stared at them, showering them with malice. However, Fan Xiao and his companions did not feel any fear that made their scalps tingle. Instead, they felt the negative emotions such as violence, murderous intent, and anger that had been building up in their hearts growing rapidly and about to get out of control.

Lu Baizhi licked her lips slightly and suggested, "These guys have such annoying eyes! I really want to gouge their eyes out! Let's kill them all, Fan Xiao."

"They must be the ghost townspeople from this world of the dead," Mercury said with a sinister look. "They're already dead, yet they dare to jump out and scare people. They're not even behaving like dead people. Why don't we dig three feet into the ground to find their remains, smash them, burn them, and scatter their ashes? What do you say?"

"..."

Fan Xiao did not reply.

Lu Baizhi tugged at his arm, urging, "Kill them, kill them! I want to skin them alive! Okay?"

"These monstrous things are really annoying, we might as well kill some of them..."

Li Xian frowned, his calm gaze vanishing and turning somewhat fierce.

However, he quickly suppressed the negative emotions surging in his heart with reason and looked at Fan Xiao, saying, "This place is a bit strange. Let's hurry up and not stay here too long."

Even he was almost at his breaking point.

The densely packed figures around them were undoubtedly the inhabitants of the ghost town in this world.

Although these ghostly things are limited by the large amount of goodwill they have accumulated and cannot directly attack them, this space itself will constantly affect their emotions, causing them to continuously degenerate in negative emotions.

If this continues, and they can't suppress their urge to attack and break the rules by assaulting these monsters, the favorability protection rule will probably stop working.

"We really need to speed things up; I can't take it anymore."

Fan Xiao nodded calmly and said, "However, we need to be careful of other dangers during the operation. Since we entered this place, the 'deceitful monster' has not appeared, which is an unstable factor."

"Hmm...we really need to...be careful..."

Li Xian's voice was somewhat incoherent.

He had to stop the conversation and focus all his energy on suppressing his negative emotions before he felt a little better.

"Gardenia," Fan Xiao called out to the girl who was tugging at his arm.

"Are you going to make a move? Are you going to make a move?!"

Lu Baizhi's cheeks flushed, her lips parted, and a murderous expression appeared on her innocent face, her voice filled with restless desire.

Chapter 368 Lu Baizhi: The society died, but it seems like we made a profit.

If Lu Baizhi weren't still considering Fan Xiao's opinion, she probably would have already launched an attack.

For a D-level player to maintain their sanity in this environment is still a bit too much of a stretch.

Even Mercury, a C-rank player, was affected.

If Li Xian hadn't been holding him back, he probably would have already rushed out.

Fan Xiao took in his teammates' condition and, without further delay, said to Lu Baizhi, "Activate your talent and buy us some time."

"Talent?" Lu Baizhi said, "No, you have to kiss me before I'll activate it."

"..."

"Kiss deeply, use your tongue."

Lu Baizhi tilted her head back and shouted loudly, "My sister said it feels good when our tongues are intertwined. Hurry up."

"..."

Fan Xiao wasn't really affected by the environment here. In his current state, he wouldn't be in any danger even if he stayed here for another half hour.

Having mental strength approaching that of an A-level player is no joke.

But the fact that he won't get into trouble doesn't mean his three teammates won't.

Finding the remains would take some time, and he worried that while he was working, his teammates would rush into a fight with the ghost townspeople.

Helpless, Fan Xiao hugged Lu Baizhi in front of everyone and kissed her lips: "Alright, let's get to work."

"That's it? Hmph... You ungrateful bastard!"

Lu Baizhi pursed her lips, making no attempt to hide her dissatisfaction, and even resorted to verbal abuse.

Despite her dissatisfaction, she still honestly activated her talent.

A holy radiance emanated from her, forming a domain that enveloped everyone.

Within seconds, the abnormal mental state of everyone disappeared.

Including Lu Baizhi herself.

"..."

The girl fell silent.

I accidentally died... what should I do?

Shame, embarrassment, despair...

Lu Baizhi's emotions were very complicated, and she wished she could bury her head in the ground like an ostrich.

but……

It doesn't seem to be all bad.

At least Fan Xiao really kissed her.
