Chapter 12 Chapter 12 It is always good to read more novels! ………

The explosion triggered a chain reaction across the neighborhood.

On Deqi Street, some people stood by the large glass windows in the living room, while others carefully watched through the upstairs windows.

Some people came out of the house and went to the yard and the street to try to figure out what was going on.

After the initial screams and panic, the few pedestrians on the street almost all turned their gazes in the direction of the smoke. People also began to arrive from the park, many of them asking about the situation.

In the setting sun, Jiang Shizao watched as more and more people gathered on Deqi Street. Everyone's reactions were so real... it was all too real.

He could even hear the conversations of residents not far away.

In such a world, he and Wen Xu seemed to be out of place. They were nothingness, travelers passing through here.

They were merely travelers.

Just like the system prompts: "Journey".

They came into this world, passed through this world, and witnessed this world... just like when he read a novel, he watched the beginning, development, and ending of one story after another. At that time, Jiang Shizao was just a witness to a story, a reader.

…

Jiang Shizao suppressed the emotion surging within him. As he observed, he spoke to Wen Xu beside him, "We must be protected in some way... or perhaps shielded. The inhabitants of this replica space have automatically ignored our differences from the very beginning."

Jiang Shizao and Wen Xu were still wearing the school uniforms of Lingcheng High School.

When he raised his eyes from the school uniform, Jiang Shizao looked at Wen Xu: "By the way, Wen Xu, do you also read infinite flow novels?"

From the moment they first heard the system notification in the utility room, Wen Xu's reactions had been calm and swift, giving Jiang Shizao the impression that he had also been exposed to novels or film and television works of this type.

"Infinite flow novel?"

Hearing the question, Wen Xu raised his hand and touched his chin, then smiled slightly and replied: "Actually, no."

But when he saw Jiang Shizao's eyes widen, he continued, "But I roughly know how it works."

"I learned about it from other places."

After Wen Xu finished speaking, he gave him a reassuring look.

"Huh..." Jiang Shizao breathed a sigh of relief.

If Wen Xu has no understanding of the infinite flow, it will be much more difficult for him to survive in a world with such a setting.

At this time, the smile on the lips of the person opposite Jiang Shizao seemed to deepen a little.

Wen Xu lowered his voice and asked, "Shi Zao, am I being too much of a burden to you?"

"No, no." Jiang Shizao waved his hands repeatedly.

Even if Wen Xu really didn't understand the Infinite Flow at all, he could find a few Infinite Flow novels for Wen Xu to read after they returned to Lingcheng.

Lingcheng should also have novels of this type, right?

If that doesn't work, just find some supernatural fiction for Wen Xu to read! No matter what, reading more novels is always beneficial! Just like him, isn't it because he read so many Abyss novels that he's so knowledgeable and can handle the current situation...?

But for some reason, as he thought about this, Jiang Shizao's expression gradually changed.

For a few seconds, several emotions mingled on that face.

Jiang Shi had thought about it a long time ago...so what was the reason why he traveled through the book?

Maybe it's because I've read too many novels...

“…”

At the intersection, Wen Xu kept staring at the person in front of him. Seeing that the other person fell into a lovely silence, Wen Xu smiled and said, "It's early. The passage to leave this place has been opened."

After the notification of completing the game just now sounded, the system also announced the location of the exit to the participants.

"It seems we still need to reach that exit within these thirty minutes." Wen Xu added.

Jiang Shizao immediately raised his head upon hearing the voice. Coming back to his senses, he nodded. He also saw the exit sign in his mind.

Honestly, this feeling is kind of magical...

It was as if a map, a direction sign and an escape exit were automatically generated in my mind.

Jiang Shizao looked towards the exit, which was Deqi Street in front of them. The exit was not far away, right next to Villa No. 104.

It looked like they would only need to walk for a few minutes to reach the exit.

After taking another deep breath, Jiang Shizao thought of another thing at this moment.

In fact, he had thought about it before when he was in the utility room.

The system announced that there were 8 participants in the dungeon. Wen Xu and he should be considered players from Lingcheng...

What about the other players? Where are they from? Also Bell City? Or other cities in the book world? Or... other books in the Abyss?

After confirming that the copy "Freak House No. 104" was the short story he had read, Jiang Shizao had to analyze this infinite flow game in conjunction with his own experience of traveling through a book.

Could this infinite space be generated based on the fictional world of Abyss?

So the game copies are the books that Abyss has ever written, and the characters in other books, like Wen Xu, will enter the game... ?

While thinking, Jiang Shizao's thoughts were interrupted by a questioning voice.

"You're players, right?"

The sound came from the right side of the road not far away from the two of them.

…

On the street, 3947 observed these two high school students in school uniforms for a long time.

After entering the dungeon, the three-person team 3947 was in quickly determined the background and era of the dungeon world.

This is a typical 19th century Western town.

The scene they found themselves in after entering the dungeon was the riverside in the park.

When coming out of the south gate of the park, 3947 saw the two "high school students" wearing incompatible school uniforms almost at first sight.

Although they had only been in the dungeon for less than a few minutes, 3947 and his companions had already obtained information related to the "Deformed House" from the residents of the dungeon in the park.

"Deformed House No. 104" should refer to Villa No. 104, Deqi Street.

It is a strange house commonly known by the residents in this area.

But before they could go to Villa No. 104 for further investigation, the message of completing the copy came first.

"..." To be honest, including 3947, 141, 854, 623, and 2874, everyone was silent for a moment when they heard the sound of the copy being passed.

The five people also completely confirmed that 001 was not among them.

And deeply felt the strength of top gamers.

After all, when they were still trying to get to Villa No. 104, Deqi Street, the highest-ranking being had already cracked the copy and cleared the game.

Then 3947 and others saw the two "high school students" standing at the intersection.

The two people in front of him were wearing school uniforms from an unknown high school, but in 3947's eyes, these two people were definitely not ordinary players.

3947 even suspected that they were pretending to be... high school students.

Especially the "high school student" who is nearly 1.9 meters tall.

That person had a faint smile on his face, but that smile was a little creepy no matter how you looked at it...

Furthermore, this "high school student" must have noticed them approaching from the very beginning, yet he had been completely oblivious. His attention seemed to be fixed on his companions, and only when 3947 spoke did the smiling "high school student" follow his companions' gaze and turn towards them.

3947 took another breath after seeing the two people's faces clearly.

...This is not the appearance of an ordinary person!

In connection with his previous speculation, 3947 became more suspicious that there was a close relationship between 209999, 210000 and 001.

…

"You're players, right?"

When Jiang Shizao heard the voice, he turned and looked at the person who spoke. There were five people in the group, and judging by their clothes, they should be the other participants.

And 3947 also subconsciously met Jiang Shizao's gaze.

After all, after he observed carefully, this person should be the one who hid better.

Even the dangerous 1.9-meter-tall man standing next to him was constantly watching his reaction. This kind of person could not be an ordinary person!

3947 looked at Jiang Shizao with extreme nervousness.

At this moment, the seemingly completely harmless "high school student" in front of him has already formed an unknown terror in his heart.

He couldn't even find any flaws in the other party!

On the street, 3947 used up almost all his energy to calm himself down and analyze the situation... However, he was really most afraid of powerful people with charming and kind faces.

In comparison, the 1.9-meter-tall villain's face is much easier to analyze.
