Qiu Ning nodded, though she was puzzled.
"Why do you ask that?"
Lin Xun replied, "We went to the Changing Room, and the dog in the Changing Room had its bones dug out!"
"What? But... why?"
"I don't know," Lin Xun said. "We weren't in the Changing Room all the time, how could we know what happened?"
...
An hour later, the task time was over.
The group emerged from the first-floor room in a state of disarray.
Except for Lin Xun and his two companions, who appeared calm, others looked disheveled; some were panicking, some were sobbing to themselves, and others were kneeling on the ground chanting Amitabha...
The most impressive among them was probably Zhan Lang.
Although Zhan Lang wasn't on the first floor when the tokens were distributed, everyone had to receive one for the task, so he must have gotten a token as well.
When he came out of the room, he was covered in blood, and in his hand, he clutched a rotting severed hand!
The sight was three parts human and seven parts ghostly.
[Others' Dungeon is the Haunted Brothel; perhaps Zhan Lang's Dungeon is the ghost of the Haunted Brothel...]
"Player, hurry and cling to Zhan Lang's leg!"
"Zhan Lang is a true man, a tough guy. A good brother to the people, a good son to his father. He can stand on fists, run horses with his arms, pop bottle caps with his rear, and never falters even when with ten women at night!"
Everyone looked at Zhan Lang trembling in fear.
Several teammates of Xie Tengfei wanted to approach Zhan Lang for a chat but were intimidated by his glare.
Lin Xun, along with Hua Tian and Qiu Ning, made their way back up to the second floor to the Changing Room.
They walked to the innermost part of the changing room.
Suddenly, a bloody hand burst out from the mirror.
Lin Xun grabbed that hand and pulled Kui Gui out from the mirror.
"What the hell, it's you again..."
Kui Gui was being dangled by Lin Xun.
He found players who exploited Game glitches extremely annoying!
Lin Xun tore off Qiu Ning's shirt.
Qiu Ning appeared a bit shy: "Lin Xun, what are you doing? Hua Tian, tell him!"
Just as she finished speaking, Hua Tian also ripped off her own shirt.
"They came here to change clothes; I came to..."
"Stealing Love, I get it..." Kui Gui chimed in eagerly.
Next time he chooses a character script, he will never pick one with such limited character options again!
"I need to ask you something."
Lin Xun carefully placed Kui Gui on the ground.
"I have my dignity too! Don't underestimate a ghost!"
"If you don't talk, I'll make Hua Tian take off her clothes right now!"
Hua Tian immediately placed her hands on her waist, ready for action!
As long as Lin Xun needed her to, she would take off her T-shirt without hesitation.
"Are you threatening me?"
Lin Xun wore a "friendly" smile.
"It's not a threat; it's a negotiation. I just want to know who dug up the black dog's bones."
Xie Tengfei killed the black dog to ensure that some of those assigned the Summer Lotus task would fail.
But why would someone want to dig up the black dog's bones?
What significance did that hold?
Kui Gui revealed a sinister smile, "I can't tell you that, even if you threaten me with the rules!"
With that, Kui Gui crawled into the mirror.
Lin Xun stroked his chin and pondered for a moment.
"The Black Dog is a Task Item of Summer Lotus. If the Black Dog dies, those who accepted the Summer Lotus task will be unable to complete it."
Qiu Ning suddenly remembered something: "Xie Tengfei said that we shouldn't enter the room of the Four Great Flowers!"
In other words, he knows that the Black Dog is a Task Item?
"Did Xie Tengfei buy the Task Item Prompt Device?"
Qiu Ning recalled the equipment on Xie Tengfei; indeed, there was a small black box that looked very much like a Task Item Prompt Device.
She nodded.
"He is destroying the Task Item!"
Lin Xun concluded.
"But why would he do that?" Qiu Ning and Hua Tian asked in unison.
Lin Xun paced around the room, then looked up at Qiu Ning and said, "Xie Tengfei is a Killer in real life. I suspect he might have brought his real-world profession into the Game!"
"Wha... what... what Killer..." Qiu Ning stammered.
She had only guessed that someone among the players was obstructing the Game.
But she never expected there to be a Killer among the players.
So not only do they have to make a living in Gui Wu, but they also have to play a deadly game under a Killer?
...
Xie Tengfei sat in the First Floor Hall, breathing heavily.
The female ghost in the room coiled around him like a Water Snake Fairy, making it hard for him to breathe.
If this were not a Game, he would have already pinned the ghost down, tightly wrapping a red string around her neck and choking her to death!
Unfortunately, this was not the human world; it was hell.
This was not reality; it was a Game.
He had to maintain his elegant and benevolent captain image, struggling to suppress his overwhelming killing intent!
If only he could find a small animal in the Game!
Though the slender neck of a small animal would give him little sense of accomplishment, it would at least help dissipate the murderous rage boiling within him.
He glanced around at his so-called "companions."
Why had he been placed in the same Game as these foolish humans?
It was like putting a wolf in a flock and forbidding it from showing its sharp teeth.
What torment!
In this world, players killing players was against the rules!
Yet players using the Game to kill others was permitted by the rules!
Although he could not personally kill anyone, witnessing the misfortunes of others still brought him immense pleasure!
At that moment, Lu Ming approached Xie Tengfei and helped him up from the ground.
A gentle green light flickered in his palm.
A green light enveloped Xie Tengfei, and instantly, his body felt much lighter.
"Thanks to you, Lu Ming, for being a doctor!"
Xie Tengfei grasped Lu Ming's hand, his face filled with gratitude.
Lu Ming complimented, "Old Xie, you are the leader of the team. If the leader falls, the flock will lose its direction!"
...
"In the Game, players killing players is against the rules!"
Lin Xun stated firmly.
"A Killer cannot suddenly turn into a good person after entering the Game. Rather than calling his teammates allies, it's more accurate to say they are prey!"
Qiu Ning's heart sank.
"A skilled hunter will appear in the form of prey, and Xie Tengfei has become the leader of the prey. He knows their movements; as long as he wishes, his teammates will die under his arrangement!"
"But you said that players killing players is against the rules!" Hua Tian raised an objection.
"Players killing players is against the rules, but what about the Game killing players? As long as Xie Tengfei continuously collects task items with the Task Item Indicator, any player who receives a Side Quest but fails to obtain a Task Item will naturally be killed after a set time!"
This was Xie Tengfei's plan!
After Lin Xun finished speaking, silence filled the room.
An eerie stillness spread throughout the changing room.
Even Kui Gui behind the mirror fell silent.
In this room, spying could lead to death.
But eavesdropping wouldn’t!
There was actually such a character hidden among the players; should it be reported to the administrator?
Or should they just take a look first?
At this moment, Qiu Ning felt a surge of relief from having survived a crisis.
She had left Xie Tengfei's team due to differing philosophies.
But now that she thought about it, she had inadvertently found a glimmer of hope!
“We must stop Xie Tengfei!” Qiu Ning suddenly exclaimed.
Lin Xun rubbed his temples.
In this game, he was most annoyed by players like Qiu Ning who acted with such “compassion”!
Stop him? How could they stop him? And why should they stop him?
