It turns out that this copy was a scam from the very beginning!

Xiao Tangqiu's eyes were red, and he was filled with extreme grief and anger. Although he knew that there was a huge gap between his strength and the Abyss Demon, he still took out his crossbow and rushed towards the Abyss Demon.

"What a shame, but I will keep my promise..." The Abyss Demon smiled softly through his mask. "But next time we meet, you won't be so lucky."

Is he lucky?

It was the first time that Xiao Tangqiu heard this word from someone else. Listening to the abyss demon's seemingly regretful tone, he felt more and more ironic and numb. This was also the second time since he was a child that he sincerely hoped that such "good luck" would not befall him.

However, the next moment, when he rushed in front of the Abyss Demon, before he could even touch the corner of the Abyss Demon's clothes, he was bounced away by the invisible barrier. He fell heavily to the ground, and before he could get up, a sharp pain suddenly hit him.

Xiao Tangqiu's entire body convulsed in pain, and he rolled over on the ground. It felt as if an invisible hand was churning his internal organs...

"Well, see you next time."

As the abyss demon laughed softly, Xiao Tangqiu gradually began to lose consciousness in the severe pain in his body. Finally, his eyes went black and he fainted completely.

…………

"Mission failed..."

Xiao Tangqiu seemed to hear the cold and familiar system sound again in his hazy consciousness, but before he could listen carefully, he was awakened by a familiar voice.

"Qiuqiu! Qiuqiu! Xiao Tangqiu!"

He suddenly opened his eyes and met Tang Mianmian's eyes outside the glass. After seeing the joy in Tang Mianmian's eyes, his consciousness gradually returned to his body. He quickly turned on the switch of the transmission cabin and rushed towards Tang Mianmian.

"I just had a nightmare..."

Xiao Tangqiu looked at Tang Mianmian's happy face and couldn't wait to speak.

His heart was filled with fear and suspicion, but Tang Mianmian's sudden frozen expression made the fear in his heart completely magnified. His heart felt like it was suddenly grasped by someone, and he felt a sharp pain and suffocation, but he still struggled to continue: "I dreamed... Shen Yuan died..."

Tang Mianmian was silent for a long, long time before she spoke with equal difficulty: "...That was not a dream."

Xiao Tangqiu asked blankly, "Isn't this a dream?"

Tang Mianmian was silent for a long time before she spoke in a dry voice, "Our captain... he's really dead..."

Xiao Tangqiu stared at Tang Mianmian for several minutes before his legs went weak and he fell to the ground.

It turns out Shen Yuan is really dead...

It turns out that was not his nightmare!

Shen Yuan is really dead!

He felt powerless all over, his mind was blank, and he strongly rejected the news. However, deep in his heart, there was a calm and almost cruel voice telling him - Shen Yuan was dead!

Tang Mianmian looked at Xiao Tangqiu who was sitting on the ground, and wanted to say something, but when he opened his mouth, he seemed to have no idea what to say for a moment.

Until this time, the other members of the Samsara Team also came out of the teleportation cabin one by one. They gathered around Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian in silence. No one spoke, only the silent and oppressive atmosphere spread wantonly.

After a long moment, Xiao Tangqiu asked with difficulty, "...What exactly happened then? Where were you? Why didn't we see you?"

Xue Junli was silent for a moment, then spoke calmly, "We were trapped by the barrier at the time. We could see you, but you couldn't see us..."

It turned out that when the Abyss Demon captured Xiao Tangqiu and Shen Yuan, the other members of the Samsara Team were there all the time. However, they were trapped in an invisible barrier set up by someone unknown, and could not get out of the barrier. They could only watch helplessly as things happened but were unable to stop it. Of course, even if a few more of them were added, it would be impossible for a group of players like them to deal with the Abyss Demon.

Xiao Tangqiu asked blankly, "So you saw it too? Do you know that Shen Yuan is dead?"

Xue Junli was silent for a few seconds before he said softly, "We also saw the captain die..."
