Chapter 707 [(*^▽^*)]
Because it was created by the power of a certain ghost, which cannot use its powers during the day, it naturally became immobile and turned into a wooden sculpture.
When night falls, the ghost's abilities can be used, and he will turn into a person. In reality, he is just a humanoid object created by the ghost, not a person.
Lin Leyou, "Who is your master?"
The wooden-carved man's lips curled into a smirk, and his tone of voice became somewhat off. "Why ask him? Why don't you come back now and have a seat at my house?"
Upon hearing these words, Lin Leyou knew that the ghost behind him must have controlled his body. Since that was the case, he didn't say anything more, only a faint smile on his lips.
At this moment, Xue Rui took out his Blood Shadow Gun from his backpack and fired two shots at the wooden sculpture man.
The result was obvious. He was just a puppet created out of thin air. How many bullets could he withstand? Two shots later, he fell to the ground and died. Then, right before their eyes, he turned to ashes and disappeared completely from the grassland.
Lin Leyou controlled the aircraft, carrying them away. "We may have provoked an enemy."
Xue Rui put away his guns. "When we get back, if he tries to stop us, we can just kill him."
Lin Leyou's lips curled up. "Yes, we can kill them. When we go back, we can wait a little while near the village before heading home."
Xue Rui looked at the dark grassland in the distance. "Shall we continue?"
Lin Leyou nodded, "Continue upstream along the river and see if there are any other villages or other places where people gather. So they continued to move upstream along the river."
This continued for a full five hours before they finally saw a slight change in the distance. For the previous five hours, it had all been the same monotonous grassland. If it weren't for this river, they would definitely have gotten lost.
Xue Rui, “This village…”
Lin Leyou was also somewhat surprised as he got closer, "Isn't this..."
The village that appeared before them was actually the starting point from which they had set out, the village where they had lived. In other words... after traveling for so long, they had returned to where they started.
Lin Leyou looked at Xue Rui and said, "The scope of this instance should be this village."
Xue Rui said, "I'm afraid it's not just about going upstream; no matter which direction you go, you'll eventually end up back where you started."
Lin Leyou sighed, "Since that's the case, let's not waste our time. Let's try looking in a different direction..."
Xue Rui continued, "First, we need to find out who is using the props in our backpacks."
Since this instance only has one village, the person who used the items in their inventory must be in this village. If you look carefully, you can definitely find them.
The mechanical spider that Lin Leyou had just discovered was originally thought to be the key to finding that person, but unexpectedly, the other party did not recall the mechanical spider and instead continued to follow some players.
I've been away from home until now.
Lin Leyou thought for a moment, "One of my mechanical spiders is outside, I'll go and retrieve it now."
The two landed by the river and then walked hand in hand toward the village. When they got close, they did not find any ghosts or monsters causing them trouble.
It seems that the monster whose wood carving they destroyed had no intention of causing them any trouble.
Xue Rui, "Where are you?"
Lin Leyou sensed it for a moment, then pointed in a direction, "It's over there, let's go."
They didn't actually get close to that place. Instead, at roughly the same distance, Lin Leyou directly controlled the mechanical spider, making it walk towards him.
He deliberately had Xue Rui stand in the shadows while he stood outside, watching the mechanical spider appear in front of him and then slowly approach him in the middle of the road.
Lin Leyou crouched down and looked at the mechanical spider in front of him. Only after confirming that the person behind him had observed him through the mechanical spider did he put it away.
The mechanical spider appeared in the backpack just like that.
Lin Leyou looked at the ten mechanical spiders in his backpack and nodded in satisfaction. The other party must have noticed it as well, so what will he do now?
Xue Rui emerged from the darkness at that moment. "He'll come?"
Lin Leyou smiled and looked around. "This square is a good place to meet. The location is very obvious and close to the villa. Just wait, they will definitely come."
As he spoke, he gave Xue Rui a push. At that moment, Xue Rui looked more human than him, because apart from his red eyes, Xue Rui looked normal.
Xue Rui, "Hmm?"
Lin Leyou said, "Hide yourself and come out later."
Xue Rui thought for a moment, then nodded, "Okay."
Unlike Lin Leyou, his face is his original appearance. If players were to see it, it would be a bit troublesome, even though he is wearing a hat and it is currently nighttime.
Meanwhile, the two people inside Villa No. 15 were discussing something.
Lin Leyou did see the mechanical spider being controlled by someone else and then walking towards a stranger, but he was certain that the mechanical spider was not something he had put back into his backpack.
That was indeed what he thought at the time, and he planned to do it. He thought the mechanical spider was controlled by that monster, but he didn't expect that before he could take any action or the mechanical spider could escape, it would appear in his backpack.
If it wasn't me, then who could it be? It must be that ghost!
Xue Rui looked at him with a serious expression, "Is what you said true?"
Lin Leyou: "Why would I lie to you? I think he's waiting for me near the square. Do you want to go?"
Xue Rui pondered for a moment with a serious expression, "Go, why wouldn't I go?"
Lin Leyou said, "I'm afraid this is a trap, waiting for us to take the bait."
Xue Rui: "Did you notice anything before? It seems like someone took things out of the backpack, used them, and then put them back."
Lin Leyou looked at him, "You have this problem too?"
Xue Rui nodded, "Yes, I was originally planning to find out the reason. Now that it has come to me, if I don't go, wouldn't I lose this clue?"
Lin Leyou gritted his teeth, "Since that's the case, let's go!"
The two left Villa No. 15 together and walked side by side toward the square. As they stepped onto the square, they saw a figure in the distance.
Lin Leyou was a little nervous. "It's him. He's the ghost I saw through the props just now."
Xue Rui was also somewhat wary at this point. "Be careful."
The ghost Lin Leyou, who was standing at a distance, had heard the sound earlier. Without pretending to be mysterious, he turned around and looked at them directly, "You've arrived? I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Unexpectedly, there was more than one.
These two look a bit strange, why do they seem so familiar? Could it be...?
Lin Leyou, a human, looked at him warily and immediately took out a peach branch from his backpack. Xue Rui, another human, naturally wanted to take out his Blood Shadow Gun, but just as he was about to do so, he discovered that the Blood Shadow Gun, which had been in his backpack, had disappeared!
"how……"
At that moment, a figure appeared behind the ghost Lin Leyou. "What do you want to take out?"
When he appeared next to the ghost Lin Leyou, he was holding a very familiar gun. The human Xue Rui was shocked when he saw it. Wasn't this the Blood Shadow Gun that had just disappeared from his backpack?
What happened? Why did it end up in the hands of this... monster?
The monsters in this dungeon can actually steal items from players' inventory? How can we play like this? We're doomed, right?
Lin Leyou, the ghost, really wanted to laugh, but now was not the time. Although they didn't sense any other ghosts looking at them, they still needed to find another place as soon as possible.
Then, in front of the human Lin Leyou, the ghost Lin Leyou took out an adorable mechanical spider. The mechanical spider moved in his palm, which was clearly visible to the other side.
Lin Leyou, a human, was utterly puzzled. "Impossible. This is impossible."
"Still haven't figured it out, Lin Leyou?"
Human Lin Leyou was stunned for a moment after hearing these words, then a flash of inspiration struck him, "Holy crap, could it be... this dungeon could be?"
The ghost Lin Leyou said, "Come with us first."
He led Xue Rui forward and soon arrived at the gate of Villa No. 16. At this moment, the human Lin Leyou could not care about anything else and grabbed Xue Rui beside him to follow them.
"So, you're the one living in villa number sixteen..."
The ghost Lin Leyou opened the door and said, "Come in."
They gritted their teeth and went in anyway, thinking it would be safer inside.
After the four entered the room, the ghost Xue Rui took off his hat, revealing his true face to the two of them. The human Xue Rui stared at him in shock.
"You...you are..."
The ghost Xue Rui sneered, "How foolish, who else could I be?"
Just as the human Xue Rui was about to speak, he was interrupted by the other party, "It seems like you don't recognize each other anymore."
The ghost Lin Leyou's gaze swept between the two of them. "No memory of the other?"
Lin Leyou, a human, felt a strange unease. "Could it be that I'm a couple with him?"
Human Xue Rui paused slightly, his gaze turning to the ghost Lin Leyou.
Ghost Lin Leyou suddenly chuckled, then leaned close to Ghost Xue Rui beside him and gently kissed him on the corner of the mouth before looking at the two of them again.
The two of them stared at them blankly, "This..."
Human Xue Rui: "They really are a pair. No wonder I felt strange when I faced him before."
At this moment, they also noticed the rings on the fingers of the two ghosts.
"This ring..."
Lin Leyou, the ghost, said, "This ring is our token of love, and it's also a prop that belongs to us."
Even if Lin Leyou and Xue Rui didn't want to believe the two ghosts in front of them, they could indeed take items from their backpacks and use them freely.
They can even reveal many private matters that only they know.
What's even more unbelievable is that they actually are a couple! Watching themselves, now turned into monsters, kiss another stranger who has also become a monster, they find it absurd but accept it well.
