Chapter 305: Insider Meets Insider
There were several people coming to greet us, among whom Ling Feng was standing in the front, followed by several unfamiliar faces.
The person who just spoke was also Ling Feng. At this moment, he was examining Zhong Mu from head to toe with a scrutinizing gaze, and then glared at the people beside him, "Don't bring people here so casually in the future!"
"I understand..." The few people nodded hurriedly, then moved aside, leaving only Zhong Mu standing in front of him.
Ling Feng had no impression of this face, so he looked at it. Zhong Mu was stunned for a long time when he saw Ling Feng appear here, and began to look back at him with a frown.
The surroundings were silent and no one said a word.
After a while, Ling Feng spoke first, "Are you a player?"
Zhong Mu nodded.
Then Ling Feng crossed his arms and asked seriously, "So, what are the conditions for clearing this dungeon?"
Zhong Mu said without hesitation: "Ask about the origin of all the changes."
The dungeon notification was only given to the players, while those who were sacrificed in the town and those who turned into monsters by the black fog could not hear the dungeon notification and were most likely unaware of it.
Ling Feng stared at him, still not completely convinced. After a moment of silence, he took out a piece of paper from his pocket and asked, "What's written on it?"
Zhong Mu glanced at the note and was stunned. "Dungeon reminder: This dungeon will last for two months. If you don't complete it in time, there will be no players left in the town after two months..."
This rule was something Zhong Mu had never seen before, nor was it something the town had planned. He was stunned for a moment before looking up at Ling Feng, "Is this the rule you found?"
Ling Feng nodded and put away the rule note. "Our people have been wandering around the town and found this note. We also discovered that the sacrifices and the monsters can't see the contents of this note. Since you can see it, it means you are also a player."
Ling Feng was temporarily relieved about Zhong Mu's identity. He was just trying to confirm whether Zhong Mu's unfamiliar face was from the town's players. However, he never expected that Zhong Mu, a player, would appear in a new identity. After testing whether he was a player, he let down his guard against him.
"So there are such rules notes in the town?" Zhong Mu frowned. It seems that the rules in this dungeon are different from the original rules that restrict players. This time there are only simple hints, which cannot be considered real rules.
And it also requires copy players to find it.
While Zhong Mu was in a daze, Ling Feng slowly walked up to him, looking at him intentionally or unintentionally, "Are you alone? No companions?"
Zhong Mu nodded.
Ling Feng nodded, understanding the situation, and continued, "Then you must rely on us. You have no companions, and we are all players without companions. It would be most convenient for us to stick together and resist the threat to the town."
Zhong Mu silently rolled his eyes in his heart. When did the town threaten them? The town had been so good to them! What a bunch of heartless ungrateful people.
He thought that this group of players would be unwilling to give up and would unite to resist them, but he didn't expect them to unite so quickly. Not only did they quickly establish a base, they were also rapidly recruiting people and had unique information. This made Zhong Mu think that they were a mess before, and such a big change might be because of Ling Feng in front of him.
The other players would all look at his expression to some extent, figuring that he was the core that brought all the dungeon players together.
Zhong Mu frowned and stared at Ling Feng. He didn't expect that this man who seemed to be one of their people on the surface was actually a traitor behind their backs.
Now the insider meets the insider, but Zhong Mu has the advantage.
"Can I really trust you?" Zhong Mu was still pretending to be hesitant and wavering in response to Ling Feng's invitation to join a group.
This hesitation made the people around him want to come forward to persuade him, but Ling Feng waved them aside and took the initiative to explain, "They are the town's sacrifices and monsters. We are the players. Don't you see that the people in the town are restricting us?"
Zhong Mu nodded silently. The restrictions were indeed imposed, mainly because they were afraid that the dungeon players would cause trouble.
"Then look at this. The rules we found." Ling Feng took out the slip of paper again and carefully unfolded it in front of Zhong Mu. "It says that the duration of this instance is two months. Do you know what this means?"
Zhong Mu stared at the words on the paper and said silently, "For more than two months, there will be no more players in the town. Perhaps all the players in this dungeon will stay here to become sacrifices or monsters, and then let the next batch of players come."
"Yes." Ling Feng was surprised by Zhong Mu's quick reaction, but before he could add anything, Zhong Mu lowered his head and muttered to himself.
"Time in that town is now flowing three times faster than usual. Two months doesn't really leave much time..."
He seemed to understand the players' anxiety and the reasons why they were trying every possible way to resist. Currently, there was no progress in the dungeon and it was still being suppressed by the town. This was indeed a very bad situation for dungeon players who did not trust the town, where they were waiting to die.
"We only have two months left. At the current rate of flow in this town, more than ten days have already passed. The black fog continues day and night. We will soon be integrated into this dungeon." Ling Feng stared at Zhong Mu intently. "If you don't want to die, you have no choice but to join us."
Ling Feng even brought up the issue of life and death, and only then did Zhong Mu nod, choose to believe them, and join this camp.
These people will naturally trust him more and no longer doubt him.
After Zhong Mu joined this camp, Ling Feng drove away some people who were watching around and led Zhong Mu to a corner to talk.
There were a lot of people outside with angry eyes. Why did the boss come up and take away the most attractive person among these people, the one they had brought with great difficulty?
Ling Feng ignored their gazes and took out a second note from his pocket and handed it to Zhong Mu.
"You're different from those idiots out there who just eat and wait to die. I can see that you're smarter than them and can help me a little. Here's a note for you. It's the second note I found in town."
Zhong Mu took the note in a daze. He didn't expect that Ling Feng was hiding the information.
He unfolded the note and stared at the contents carefully. The contents were very simple.
[The origin of the town's anomaly lies within the town itself. You must carefully discover it. Perhaps once the origin of the anomaly disappears, everything will end.]
Zhong Mu pondered the contents of the note and couldn't quite understand it for a moment.
But Ling Feng, who was standing next to him, looked at him with a sharp gaze and reminded him leisurely, "Do you feel that the man named Yin Xiu from before is a little different from ordinary players like us?"
