Re-live your life and start speedrunning

The one who caused this accident...

The girl who called herself Xiaoyuan put on her glasses again and returned to her ordinary face that could be easily overlooked.

She asked cautiously: "I see that you don't seem to be in good condition?"

Li Re's face looked really ugly.

But he still held back and shook his head.

Forget it.

he thought.

It was just another failure, he had gotten used to it... even though this time he was closer to death than any other time, even though this time he seemed to have really seen death...

Thinking about it carefully, I still feel very unwilling -

But there is no other way despite my unwillingness.

Li Re exhaled lightly to calm his inner restlessness.

At least, this time, he could successfully enter the so-called paradise.

By the time.

I think I can embrace a wider world and encounter more dangers...

He also successfully helped two people escape from the attack of evil spirits.

Yes.

Although he was asking for death, Li Re knew clearly in his heart that death was only a way to gain power, but not the goal.

He gained power just to be able to live better in this world according to his own wishes.

Rather than just becoming stronger for the sake of becoming stronger.

He never confuses the beginning and the end!

Thinking of this, Li Re finally relaxed completely.

But he was about to say something.

Old Hu, who had been staring at the sleeping ghost, suddenly shouted.

"Is this... a ghost soul core?"

There was fear in his voice.

Li Re looked in the direction of the sound and could not help but fix his eyes - he saw that in the middle of the bus, the evil spirit had completely disappeared at some point, and in its place, there was a floating scarlet object that looked like a heart or a jade bead.

The scarlet light transmits a chilling and ominous aura!

Chapter 16: The Ghost Core, Paradise Comes

"Finally I'm away from that thing... It was so scary!"

A moment later, and another moment later.

The tallest and farthest building in the ghost town - the top of the TV tower, with its majestic spire pointing far into the dark and moonless sky, emitting the only light in the dark world.

The platform under the spire.

The untidy bearded new guide held the handrail at the edge of the room and spoke, looking back from time to time while speaking, with fear written all over his face.

Li Re and Xiao Yuan beside him were both confused.

"So, what exactly is that thing?" Li Re was a little confused: "Why are you so... so panicked when you see that thing?"

At this moment, only half an hour had passed since they defeated the evil ghost at the core of the ghost town.

But many things happened during this half hour... For example, the evil ghost transformed into something that looked like a heart and also like jade, and after seeing that thing appear, Lao Hu, with fear on his face, pulled Li Re and Xiao Yuan and quickly fled from the ghost bus.

Yes.

The reason why they appeared here was entirely because of Lao Hu’s fear!

But in this process.

Li Re and Xiao Yuan were still confused throughout the whole process.

They were taken to this relatively safe place which had been planned beforehand...

In this city, the TV tower is the first to greet the dawn!

Lao Hu took a deep breath, calmed down a little, and then said: "You don't know how terrifying that thing is."

"You have just witnessed how powerful evil spirits are, right?"

"According to common sense, the 'ghosts' formed after a person dies due to strong resentment and other negative emotions should also look like humans. However, when they reach the level of fierce ghosts, they will gradually become demonic - just like the monsters in legends, becoming more and more terrifying and gradually gaining consciousness."

"And that thing is the mutated heart of the evil spirit after it was transformed into a demon. It is the essence and core of the evil spirit's power—"

"Only when a high-level evil spirit runs out of power and falls into a deep sleep, the ghost's soul core will be revealed after the surface is stripped away!"

'Soul core'... Xiao Yuan didn't say anything, and just listened quietly as before. Instead, Li Re chewed on these two words, and his eyes lit up inexplicably.

The essential power of evil spirits...

Can you let me die?

"I know what you are thinking." Old Hu glanced at Li Re, as if he could see through his inner thoughts.

But he obviously misunderstood something: "Using soul cores to directly control the power of evil spirits with human bodies, there are indeed such professions among the players of Paradise, and some people have indeed tried it."

"But without exception, all those people died."

"Soul cores may seem harmless, but in the final analysis, they are still sleeping ghosts. They contain some unknown curse. Even experienced people who have gone through several scene missions in Paradise will find it difficult to withstand such a curse."

"So don't even think about using your soul core. That's courting death. No, you don't need to use it. It's best not to even touch it!"

Lao Hu's face was serious. As the only official Paradise player present, he had obviously heard of and even seen the scene of the Soul Core Curse erupting.

of course,

How to use it specifically, or what specific effect it can produce.

It was obviously impossible for him to know since he was so secretive about it.

But when it comes to this, Lao Hu shows a relaxed expression again.

He said: "Of course, now we are all far away from that thing and have not touched it, so we should not be cursed."

"And... I finally understand why this trial mission is so difficult!"

Speaking of it.

The unshaven-bearded man looked at Li Re, then at Xiao Yuan over there.

The sight in the dim light paused slightly.

Then I suddenly felt some emotion.

A qualified candidate for the profession of ghost controller, a qualified candidate for the profession of psychic with innate superpowers... No wonder even evil spirits with soul cores showed up on this mission!

All I can say is that the other two truly ordinary people are unlucky...although they are considered calm and mentally strong among ordinary people.

But compared to these two, it’s still not good enough!

With a guide and two qualified professionals, it was understandable that the trial mission was difficult...but no matter how difficult it was, they managed to get through it.

"Now, the evil spirits that are the core of the Ghost Town Trial have been dealt with. Next, we don't have to wait six hours. With the adjustment of Paradise's system, the dawn of the Ghost Town will arrive earlier."

"At this point, I can say to you - welcome to join the paradise, a place of infinite opportunities and infinite horrors!" Old Hu looked at the two people in front of him with a smile.

"Dawn comes early...and changes the world? Can Paradise even do such a thing?" Li Re thought of other things.

"Of course!"

After completing the mission, Lao Hu was obviously in a better mood. He said, "Not to mention the park itself, even the players in the park would be considered gods if they were placed in the real world outside!"

"really?"

Li Re looked the unshaven-bearded man up and down, and said without giving him any respect: "I don't believe it."

"..."

Lao Hu was choked instantly.

He said helplessly: "In fact, I am not much better than you... Including this time, I have only experienced three scene missions."

“Turns out you’re also a rookie!” Li Re raised his eyebrows.

Lao Hu decisively chose to ignore this guy who could make people angry to death.

He said, "Wait a minute, when dawn comes, paradise will come, and we will all be sent back to reality."

"Then, the Paradise system will settle our trial mission this time. At that time, you will all get the player's career template..." Lao Hu paused for a moment before continuing, "In Paradise, career choice is very important, but most people don't have a choice at all. But I think this is not a problem for you two."

"After all, one is a ghost rider who controls evil ghosts, and the other is a person with natural superpowers."

"You will definitely be able to obtain the two professions of Ghost Control and Psychic, and with relative safety guarantees, this is already a starting point that exceeds more than 80% of ordinary players!"

"By then..."

"Your information will also be recorded on this evolutionary card!"

Lao Hu took out a black card.

Li Re and Xiao Yuan were stunned.

Obviously.

They all hold this card.

"This is your identification card for players of the park, and also your 'ticket' to the next mission. After the settlement, you will be official players."

"You will find out more information here later, and now..."

"This is for you."

"What is this?" Li Re and Xiao Yuan looked at each other, then reached out and took two small pieces of paper from Lao Hu.

"This is my real name and my real contact information." Lao Hu put away his player ID card and said, "This is what I promised you before—"

He looked at Li Re and said, "If you are interested, I will introduce you to the largest and most reliable force in the park."

"You too."

Li Re held the note and thought about it, but did not refuse.

...he thought it might be useful later.

When Xiao Yuan saw the note in Li Re's hand, she also put it away.

Then she thought about it.

He took out a small diary from his pocket, tore off a page and handed it to Li Re.

"this is mine."

The girl said in a soft voice.

Since he had accepted Lao Hu's note, Li Re also took Xiao Yuan's note.

Then as a return gift, he also gave the other party his contact information.

Old Hu scratched his head over there.

He thought to himself why didn't he have one, but then he thought about his embarrassing performance this time and didn't say anything.

To avoid being ridiculed by these two new monsters again... He could also see that Madoka was looking for a partner who could fight alongside her.

The girl has realized that the so-called paradise is definitely not a good place!

and,

There might be a way for me to find the other party... Lao Hu thought.

Just during this conversation.

The sky, which was originally dark and gloomy, suddenly became bright!

A flash of white appeared on the horizon.

Like a fish's belly churning.
