Qin Xian said that after Su Deng fell into a coma and entered another game instance, the two players, Yu Ling and Zhou Hehe, reappeared.

Their goal has always been to kill Qin Xian.

Yan Sizhan, who was with them, tried to protect them, but due to the reduction in his power and the constraints imposed on him by the game's rules as an NPC, he was teleported away as soon as he made a move.

Qin Xian, carrying Xiao Qin Xian, fought back and ran, but unexpectedly, they encountered Zhuo Feng again.

Zhuo Feng is also the son of a player who wants to kill Xiao Qin Xian.

"If the version of me I was as a child is killed, not only will our real world be destroyed, but you will also be trapped in this game instance of yours forever, one game after another, in which your closest relatives and friends will die..."

Qin Xian squatted by the wall, hugging himself, and said almost in fear, "I risked everything to save my childhood self..."

“I killed Zhuo Feng,” he said.

This time it's a real kill, the kind that can't be resurrected.

Yu Ling and Zhou Hehe, those two players, are A-level super players from another world, with extremely powerful skills.

Qin Xian learned from his sparring with them that these two people came from the modern technological age of the 22nd century and were assassins.

In this game, their killer instincts were also on full display; the two of them cooperated to kill, and their actions were seamless.

If it weren't for some divine-level materials that could save his life, Qin Xian would already be dead.

Su Deng frowned and asked again, "Then how did you get here?"

"Yes..." Qin Xian recalled, "Just when I thought I was going to die, a huge, eerie eye appeared in the sky and began to judge the players in the game..."

Under trial, Yu Ling and Zhou Hehe, burdened with guilt, were reduced to ashes.

"After I was tried, I fell into a coma under my eyes, and when I woke up, I was in this castle."

Qin Xian huddled in the corner, "Su Deng... this game world is so scary..."

He had been in the game world for so long and always knew how terrible it was, but he didn't care. He just stayed put, thinking that as long as he was alive, it was much better than the real world.

But after experiencing Su Deng's adventures, and then the recent games and the God Lord, he truly felt the terror of this game world...

These players are like puppets in this ancient castle, with strings tied to their backs, the other end of which is held in the hands of the deity.

They thought they could dominate this game world and unleash all their natural instincts.

In reality, they were all nothing more than playthings of the Divine Court.

“Su Deng…” Qin Xian choked out, “I’m so scared…”

Su Deng looked at him, her eyes revealing little emotion.

After a long pause, Su Deng finally spoke, "Let's finish the game first."

Qin Xian pursed his lips and nodded, then suddenly wiped away his tears and followed her.

Qin Xian's appearance here was completely unexpected by Su Deng.

Su Muye was nowhere to be found.

And then there's Yan Sizhan. His martial arts skills are something that all the executives of the Divine Court are wary of. How could he be so easily weakened by the God Lord?

And that Eye of the Ghost God also appeared in the dungeon where Xiao Qin was, there are only two possibilities.

First, the game instance modes she is experiencing now are the same as she guessed not long ago: there is only one world from beginning to end, and these so-called multiple worlds are all virtual illusions.

Second, the special nature of the Eye of the Demon God is that it appears in all game worlds and judges players in all game instances.

Regardless of which one, they are all inextricably linked to the Divine Court.

Marionette?

Then she'll cut that thread!

I walked around the corridor several times, but still couldn't get out.

Qin Xian followed closely behind Su Deng, "It seems like we've been going in circles..."

Is this another case of being trapped in a maze?

Su Deng took out a dagger and carved a cross symbol on the wall next to her. She continued walking forward and when she reached the same corridor again, the wall was smooth and without any marks.

"It's not a repeat..." Qin Xian swallowed, "Or did the trace disappear on its own..."

The best way to verify this is for the two people to separate, with one staying in place and the other walking forward.

But seeing Qin Xian's expression, Su Deng gave up the idea.

She put the oil lamp down, carved several symbols on the ground and wall, and continued forward with Qin Xian.

When they arrived at the familiar scene again, the oil lamp and the symbols were gone.

Qin Xian hid behind Su Deng, "Could there really be a ghost...?"

Ghosts definitely exist.

Puppetry, of course, exists.

Whether it's an internal maze or a labyrinthine maze, there must be a way to solve it.

Su Deng handed Qin Xian a flashlight and walked forward again. "Let's each look at one side of the wall and the ground to see if there are any strange puppets or places."

Although Qin Xian was scared and stayed close to Su Deng, he was even more eager to clear the level and leave this hellish place.

This time, Su Deng slowed down her pace, keeping her eyes fixed on the surrounding walls and ground. When she returned to the same spot, she finally discovered something.

The wall is moving!

They weren't standing still; the wall was moving the whole time!

After they walk through, the wall in front of them will move on its own and become exactly the same as the path they walked.

Qin Xian's eyes widened. "Could it be that this ancient castle... is still alive?"

In the virtual world of games, anything is possible.

To break through the barrier, you should either stop its changes or find an exit before it changes further ahead.

Su Deng carefully observed the changes in the wall for a while, told Qin Xian to "stay close to me," and started running forward.

"I can't keep up!" Qin Xian shouted as he ran for his life.
