After I quit the team, they chased me

Before this, he had never encountered a dungeon enemy that could deal true damage.

Now he finally met such a terrible enemy, but it didn't matter, he had already flown more than ten kilometers, and the stand-in played a big role in delaying the enemy.

Simon's heart relaxed a little. He glanced at the girl who was hugging the mecha's neck. Her face had become a slicked-back hair due to the strong wind. Her helpless and desperate look made people laugh.

However, the distance between them was not too far yet, and he did not want to slow down now. It was better to be safe than sorry, so he decided to run further away.

Half an hour later.

Simon slowly landed at the confluence of a river on a plain. There was a small tree standing next to it. The river rushed over the bluestone, making the sound of a small spring.

The full moon hangs high in the sky. If you listen carefully, you can hear the sounds of various insects.

It seems there is no danger in the wild.

When he was about to put the little girl down, she became afraid.

"Mr. Evil Demon, please let me go, I want to go back." The fox girl's big tail was curled up, and her little face was full of panic, as if the quiet night field around her was the base camp of the evil demon.

"I'm not a demon." Simon thought she was afraid of the big mecha, so he grabbed her collar with his mechanical arm and put her on the ground, then he stepped out of the mecha.

It was at this moment that the first breath of cold wind entered his nose, and Simon suddenly discovered something unusual.

Just a few meters away from the mecha, under a big tree, next to a small river, three guys wearing magic robes, hoods on their heads, and whose faces cannot be seen, sat around a campfire to make a fire.

When did they appear? When the mecha landed, he hadn't seen anyone here, let alone a bonfire that couldn't be brighter.

"Friends, do you want a fire?" The campfire trio raised their heads slightly and whispered in a reassuring tone.

The fox girl had a sad face and was so scared that she stood there motionless.

In her opinion, these people were the companions of the evil demon Simon, who brought her here from far away just to sacrifice her to the god behind the evil demon.

Chapter 351 I am not human

At this moment, Simon's own spiritual sense began to sound alarm bells and he felt the threat to his life.

In the previous few seconds, Simon had no warning at all.

After realizing what was happening, Simon's first reaction was not to do anything extreme, but to force himself to calm down and suppress the fear in his heart.

The guardian angel's resurrection skill time has passed. At the moment, he has no means of resurrection and cannot be too impulsive in the mythical dungeon.

Since there is no meeting-killing phase, Simon has a chance to survive.

He looked at three men in black robes gathering around a campfire to keep warm. One of them reached out his hand and invited Simon and the other two to come over and huddle around the fire. The reason behind this was heartwarming.

Simon has separated the two types of spiritual perception, leaving part of the human spiritual perception in the body and the BOSS-level spiritual perception in the substitute, in order to increase the sensitivity.

Simon took a small step forward, the shadow of the campfire reflected in his eyes, testing the reactions of his two spiritual senses.

The human part told him: it was safe ahead, and it was normal to gather together as strangers for warmth, but he must not let his guard down.

His inhuman BOSS-level spiritual perception warned him: a new danger has arrived, and if he does not follow the rules, there will be bloody disaster.

Sure enough, at this time, human spiritual perception is no longer useful to him, and only the perception of the non-human part can allow him to touch the truth.

Simon took a deep breath, held the fox girl beside him with his left hand, and led her towards the campfire step by step, just like at the beginning, accepting the invitation to huddle together for warmth.

The fox girl was trembling, her whole body moving in resistance. In her eyes, she was about to be sacrificed. However, at this time Simon pulled her lightly, not with great force, but more like a hint.

The shadow of a substitute also appeared behind Simon, who showed up on his own, made a gesture, and then quickly disappeared, as if he was afraid of being discovered by the man in black robe.

The girl was stunned. What does this mean?

Should she be careful?

Isn't Simon a demon?

She suppressed her inner fear and managed to raise a little hope in the midst of despair.

At this time, she had no choice but to believe.

Simon was embarrassed to drag her into trouble. After all, he was unfamiliar with the area and it was inevitable that he would make mistakes. At this time, the only right thing to do was to think about how to survive.

According to the BOSS-level spiritual reminder, abiding by the rules is the only way to survive. If you do not abide by the rules and do something out of line, you will be dealt with by the three strange things in front of you.

You are not allowed to go out at night. Unexplained "people" appear, which is extremely dangerous. Strange invitations.

Several words flashed through Simon's mind.

The evil demon probably won't run away.

Simon sat down and pulled the girl next to him to sit down as well.

Up to this point, neither of Simon's men had been killed instantly, which meant that Simon made the right bet.

If the other party invites you to come over and get fire, then the rule is to come over and get fire.

If I had run away just now, if I had attacked them first, I might have been the one to die.

The three men in black robes who were coming to get fire were very satisfied with this. The bonfire in the middle was swaying wildly, and the waist of the flame was like a dancer's waist, twisting on the firewood.

The tranquil full moon hangs high in the sky, in the distance are mountains shrouded in the night, and the fields stretch as far as the eye can see, and the sudden sound of insects makes this place full of vitality.

Just by listening to the heavenly music of nature, Simon, who was in a warm environment, felt sleepy and his eyelids became a little heavy.

It was only the cold wind blowing across the field that woke Simon up. As a dream maker, he was most sensitive to the power of dreams and he had almost fallen asleep.

He glanced at the fox girl out of the corner of his eye, and sure enough, she had closed her eyes, and her petite body leaned slightly to the right, leaning on Simon's shoulder.

The furry head leaned on his shoulder, and the pointed ears unique to the fox clan touched Simon's face, which was itchy and further stimulated him to wake up.

The crisis is still not over. If the rules are irreversible, then Simon is the one who shows up here as a weird rule.

The mythical dungeon is not just about fighting monsters, there are many kinds of elements mixed in it, including modern cities, ancient times without magic, fantasy times, etc.

Rule stories are one of these elements, and in previous games, they usually appear as part of the puzzle plot.

Playing Rule Tales is like constantly making choices, restarting over and over again, and finally finding the choice that allows you to survive and then pass the level.

Fortunately, the rules of this game provide multiple ways to pass the level. You can pass it by using the berserker style, or you can pass it by using your wits without fighting at all.

With Simon's current strength, he is not even at the dual-template six-star level, let alone the Berserker style of play.

Unless he gets the artifact that destroys the numerical balance, he can only outsmart him.

"Friend, you said you are not a demon, then what are you?"

The man in black robe beside him saw that Simon was not asleep, smiled, and spoke in the tone of an older brother. His voice was very gentle and had the power of hypnosis.

Simon clearly felt the influence of hypnosis, but he had already woken up. It would be useless for him to try it a second time, after all, he was a psychiatric professional.

He immediately thought about the meaning of the other party's words.

The content of the conversation may not be correct, and it is possible to induce him to do something that breaks the rules, such as inducing Simon to say that he is a warlock?

As far as Simon knew, the local warlocks and demons were in an antagonistic relationship. The warlocks practiced "demonic essence" and became possessed, turning into demons. The demons seemed to sacrifice the warlocks to foreign gods, which led to the appearance of demon hunting teams and the warlocks were afraid to go out at night.

If Simon says that he is a warlock, or that he is a human, it is possible that the other party will judge him as an enemy and then launch an attack.

Simon went over these thoughts twice in his mind.

Human spiritual perception: Wrong, he just wants to know the truth.

Non-human spiritual perception: Correct!

Simon got two different answers.

Which answer is correct?

Simon thought quickly, while the other party waited quietly.

The other two men in black robes did not move, but their mouths were slightly open in the shadows, as if waiting for Simon's answer, and then continued to ask.

In other words, will you ask yourself this question in turn?

If the answer is wrong, I will send it myself.

Answering that you are a human being or that you are a sorcerer, etc., are not acceptable.

But Simon is not an evil demon. He has not cultivated the "demonic essence" into his body. He is extremely sure of this.

Then this is the only answer.

Simon activated his Stand skill, attaching the Stand to himself.

At this moment, the three men in black robes felt that Simon's temperament had changed.

The human aura gradually disappeared, replaced by a vague yet inexplicably powerful aura.

If you look closely, Simon still looks like a normal male warlock, but if you don't look carefully, it feels like Simon is not there, and he is a vague existence.

"To put it simply, I am neither human nor a demon...Friends, at least we are not enemies, right?"

Simon activated the power of his stand, weakening his presence and making it difficult for the other party to determine Simon's human attributes.

Secondly, the spiritual energy of the stand contains non-human BOSS-level attributes. Simon says that he is not human, so there is a certain probability that he can get away with it.

The black-robed man who asked the question remained silent, inexplicably feeling that what he said was correct.

Chapter 352: Guide to Cultivating Demonic Essence

After a few seconds of silence, he did not ask any more questions, and then the second man in black robe spoke.

"You have not practiced the magic essence, so it will be difficult for you to survive the cold night. I have a practice guide here, you can take it and practice."

The third black-robed man nodded and agreed, "It's right to listen to him. I'm sure you don't want to die of cold outside because you haven't cultivated your magic essence."

After the two evil demons finished speaking, Simon saw the other party take out a book from his arms, titled "Guide to Demonic Cultivation".

The book is light black in color, with the title written in a shining starlight font. Next to the title are some graphic runes of unknown meaning, which seem to have no specific meaning at first glance and are confusing.

When Simon wanted to ask someone, he looked up and saw nothing in front of him. The three men in black robes and the bonfire had all disappeared.

Where did they go?

Simon didn't expect that such an unexpected incident involving rules and ghost stories would end like this, without leaving any traces at the scene.

He reached out and touched the ground. It was icy cold, and after the cold wind blew, the original scent was gone. Even though he used his two spiritual senses to perceive, the answer he got was the same: no one had ever been here, and no one had ever made a fire here.

Could it be that what just happened was all an illusion?

Simon moved his shoulder. The fox girl was sleeping on his shoulder. He shook her gently and woke her up.

"Well--"

The girl yawned, her white furry ears trembled slightly, her eyelashes fluttered for two seconds, and then she slowly opened her eyes.

She saw Simon beside her. After a few glances, she didn't realize what was going on. After a few seconds, she vaguely remembered that Simon had abducted her out of the city and then she fell asleep inexplicably.

Omg.

How did I fall asleep?

The girl subconsciously got angry and was about to scream, but Simon simply snapped his fingers and tapped the girl on the forehead, waking her up.

"Don't scream," Simon said.

The girl immediately felt the pressure as deep as the sea. It was the star-level pressure of a four-star rank, which was half a step into the five-star rank. The tiny girl immediately realized that she had no power to resist, so she could only whimper and lower her head obediently.

Her big white tail also shook nervously, not knowing what Simon was trying to do.

"Do you remember how we got here?"

"Hmm." The girl lowered her head, not daring to answer, for fear of saying something wrong, and only said "hmm" in a low voice.

"Do you remember that there was an evil demon here who invited us to make fire?" Simon pointed to where the bonfire was burning.

The girl first searched her mind but found no relevant memories.

As far as she could remember, she fell asleep after being abducted by Simon.

Maybe it was because she was too nervous while being carried by the metal machine during the flight, she wanted to find the memory of the evil demon. Unfortunately, she only vaguely felt that she had an experience after landing, but she couldn't remember it.

She looked up cautiously in the direction Simon pointed. There was a patch of clean sand and a stream flowing beside it. Under the moonlight, the ups and downs of the water reflected white light.

"Isn't there nothing there?"

"You have no memory?"

"Well... yes, but you are going to capture me and sacrifice me, why..."

She only remembered this incident, and had a vague feeling that Simon was going to sacrifice her.
