Chapter 528 [(*^▽^*)]
"That's good, that's good." The man seemed very happy. "By the way, the Evil God Temple won't have any problems..."
Guo Xia didn't give a definitive answer, "I don't know, but when we went there we didn't encounter anything, just a temple of an evil god, or rather... it was described as a temple of a mountain god."
"That's true, after all, we still have to deceive ourselves and use it to hide things from outsiders."
Guo Xia followed him to the place where the players were gathered. Guo Chengzheng was already nearby. He walked up to him, and the two exchanged a knowing glance.
"Is everyone here?"
With the addition of Guo Chengzheng and Guo Xia, who just returned, there are exactly twenty players. Apart from those who volunteered, the other twenty players were selected because they did not object to going to the Evil God Temple.
After everyone knows that the Evil God Temple is the BOSS's lair, all players probably know that there is a high probability of encountering the BOSS when going to the Evil God Temple, so it is necessary to adhere to the principle of voluntariness.
"Now I'll ask again, is there anyone who doesn't want to go? If not, step forward now and stay in the village later. We can find someone else. Don't let it get to the evil god temple and cause us trouble."
"We're all seasoned veterans, so I don't think we'd panic and run away if we encountered a boss, right?"
Everyone has thought it through clearly; since they are standing here now, they naturally won't back down.
"Alright, since everyone has no objections, let's set off. As the temporary team leader, I think everyone should have no objections either. If you have any objections, you can raise them now."
Guo Chengzheng and Guo Xia observed for a while. Although some people frowned slightly, they did not speak up, and naturally, they had no objections.
Guo Xia's gaze fell on the temporary team leader. This person seemed to have always been in a commanding position in this instance. Oh right, what was this person's name again?
He thought for a moment and remembered that he seemed to have introduced himself at the beginning, but only once. If Guo Xia hadn't had a good memory, he probably would have forgotten it.
Rong Yuwen, that's the name of this person. Guo Xia recalled the player names registered in the back office of the Administration Bureau. He was certain that no player with this name had been registered in any of the Administration Bureaus across the country.
When we get back, we should check thoroughly. We need to investigate everyone whose names we know and then assign people to find the individuals one by one. As players, we must register with the official authorities.
Rong Yuwen checked the time. "It's getting late. If everyone is ready, let's set off."
After saying that, he took the lead and walked ahead, with the others following behind. However, after walking for a short while, Rong Yuwen called Guo Chengzheng and Guo Xia to walk ahead, "You two are the only players who have been to the Evil God Temple and returned safely. Can you lead the way?"
Guo Chengzheng patted his chest, "No problem, we'll lead the way."
Guo Xia naturally had no objections. Anyway, there was only one road, so they just had to follow it. The only question was whether they would encounter any dangers along the way.
They came last time, after all. This time there are so many people... Will the BOSS think that the two of them have brought a fight to the door?
Lin Leyou and Xue Rui watched them walk towards the Evil God Temple.
Xue Rui, "Are you going back?"
Lin Leyou nodded, "I'll go back, you stay in the village."
Xue Rui grabbed him. "You plan to deal with them?"
Lin Leyou said, "If possible, I would definitely kill him; after all, it's a good opportunity."
Xue Rui said, "In that case, I'll go back with you."
Lin Leyou blinked. "Why are you in such a hurry? I'm not fighting alone. There are two rebels over there, and I have three underlings with me."
Xue Rui still didn't quite agree. Anyway, there was nothing going on in the village, so there was no point in him staying.
"I'm a little worried, but I'll stay with you. We can go back to the village once everything is alright."
Lin Leyou blinked. "There's no need. If I can't kill them by myself, I'll notify you with the ring. Anyway, we're fast as vengeful ghosts now, and you can get from the village to the evil god's temple in less than two minutes."
Xue Rui thought about it and agreed, "In that case, I'll stay in the village."
Lin Leyou glanced at the village chief's house. "The door gods pasted on the village chief's door are really durable. I wonder what they're doing inside. If you have the chance, take a closer look."
Just as he was about to turn and leave, he suddenly thought of Qin Xingyu. Apart from seeing him once before, he hadn't seen him for a while and wondered how he was doing.
"I'm going to see Teacher Qin, you...you don't need to come with me."
Xue Rui paused slightly, thinking of Qin Xingyu's formidable strength. He was no match for Qin Xingyu in physical skills alone, let alone anything else, especially since Qin Xingyu disliked him. "Hmm."
Seeing his subtle expression, Lin Leyou couldn't help but laugh. "Don't worry, Teacher Qin will definitely not target you."
After saying that, he turned and left. Xue Rui watched his retreating figure and muttered to himself, "Why wouldn't he target me? If he were alone with me, he would definitely target me to death."
Lin Leyou had a soft spot for Qin Xingyu, and he didn't know when he would realize that Qin Xingyu's gaze was definitely filled with coldness and murderous intent.
"Sigh..." Xue Rui sighed deeply, then slowly approached the village chief's house.
Of course, since the wind chimes were still hanging on the gate, Xue Rui didn't get too close. If the wind chimes rang, the villagers probably wouldn't dare to go out during the day.
Xue Rui observed the village chief's house from a high vantage point and found that everyone inside was going about their business, cooking, cleaning, and resting, seemingly living their lives as usual, except that their faces showed more worry, fear, and numbness.
After observing for a while and finding nothing unusual, Xue Rui looked up at other places. There were still too many villagers, and another round of reductions was necessary.
Xue Rui checked the village chief's house again and, finding nothing amiss, began to slowly choose where to start killing. During this time, he also discovered two families whose members had been murdered, bringing the total number of dead to twelve.
This must be the person Guo Chengzheng and Guo Xia killed; it was a small task assigned to them by Lin Leyou.
Xue Rui then remembered something else: the prop stone he had placed halfway to the Evil God Temple was still lying there. He had intended to give it to Guo Xia, but…
Perhaps now is not a good time?
He touched the black jade ring on his finger. "Xiao You, don't forget that golden stone prop later."
He quickly received a reply: "I remember."
He remembered that stone prop very clearly, since he knew Guo Xia as well.
Qin Xingyu looked at him. "What? He contacted you?"
Lin Leyou raised an eyebrow, "Is Teacher Qin jealous?"
Qin Xingyu's lips twitched. "Stop being silly. What do you want from me?"
Lin Leyou: "I just came to see you."
Qin Xingyu took a sip of tea. "Get to the point."
Lin Leyou blinked. "I just wanted to ask Teacher Qin if she really came here just to see my boyfriend?"
Qin Xingyu silently touched the teacup. "So... do you think I have other motives?"
Lin Leyou said, "I'm sorry, although I know that true damage weapons are powerful, I haven't experienced those things, so I don't really have a concept of what they are."
Qin Xingyu said, "I won't go into details, it's pointless. The only thing I can say is that you should never reveal that you have this weapon unless absolutely necessary."
Lin Leyou nodded, "I know that, don't worry, Teacher Qin... By the way, now that it's just the two of us here, why don't you tell me what your impression of him is?"
Qin Xingyu sighed deeply, "I'm pretty good at judging people. This person... has no problems with his character. At least even if we have to separate in the future, he won't be the kind of person who kicks you when you're down."
Lin Leyou, "Will he break up with me?"
Qin Xingyu: "I was just using an analogy, don't take it seriously. In short, it's not bad, but the strength is a bit weak. It's even a bit weaker than yours. I need to train hard."
Lin Leyou said, "In that case... I'll have to trouble Teacher Qin."
Qin Xingyu nodded casually, but quickly realized something was amiss. "What do you mean? How can an outsider like him become my student?"
Lin Leyou stroked his chin, "I wonder if that Peace Medical University also has a dungeon?"
Qin Xingyu, "You mean, teach him inside the instance?"
Lin Leyou: "Is it okay?"
Qin Xingyu shook her head decisively, "No!"
Lin Leyou asked, puzzled, "Why?"
Qin Xingyu: "I've lost interest in these dungeons now."
Lin Leyou said, "Maybe Teacher Qin can find her true love in the dungeon?"
Qin Xingyu shook her head again, "I'm way past that age of loving or not loving."
Lin Leyou then asked, "How old is Teacher Qin?"
He looks to be only in his twenties or thirties, very young. Could he be quite old? It's hard to say, since in the Endless World, many things can be redeemed with points.
Qin Xingyu glanced at him and said, "A few hundred."
Lin Leyou nodded, "So you've grown up so much... then you must have seen through the illusions of the world."
Qin Xingyu said earnestly, "If you want him to become stronger, then he should study hard here with me, and once he has mastered his skills, he can teach him himself, right?"
Lin Leyou: "That's fine, but... Teacher Qin really doesn't object to me being with him?"
Qin Xingyu, "Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"
Lin Leyou, "The truth?"
Qin Xingyu: "To be honest, of course I'm against it!"
Lin Leyou, "Because he's an outsider?"
Qin Xingyu nodded, as if it were a matter of course. "Those who are not of our kind will surely have different hearts. He may seem harmless to you and us now, but what about in a few years? In decades? Can he still guarantee that he will be devoted to you and have no ill intentions towards the world?"
Lin Leyou stroked his chin. He wasn't sure. He wasn't even sure what he would be like a few years or decades from now, let alone anyone else.
