Chapter 314: Monster Nest Island
The cold iron in his hand did not calm Xu Zhiyan down.
Instead, because of the actions and words of the ghost, his cheeks were hot and he was at a loss, almost wanting to throw away what was in his hand.
[BUG detection enters countdown. ]
[Testing will begin in 20 seconds, players please don't panic. ]
The panel that popped up indicated that he didn't have much time left.
There was a slight tingling sensation in the wet area beside my ear, and the ghost changed from licking to light biting, which was not painful but impossible to ignore.
"Bai, Bai Jin, calm down."
Xu Zhiyan lowered his eyes, twisted his fingers around the handle of the spike, and protested softly.
The test is about to begin, and he has no way of moving with the opponent like this!
But he was held by the waist and had no strength in his body. He no longer had the arrogance he used to have, and even his voice sounded particularly soft.
Being called by name apparently made the ghosts more excited.
He knew that now was not the right time, and his fingers tightened uncontrollably for a moment, but he finally let go of the person in his arms and took a half step back.
"I'll pay attention."
The ghost's responding voice was full of laughter and satisfaction.
Although only a part was cut out, and he even had to impose a lot of seals on himself, being able to enter the copy with Xu Zhiyan was what he had always dreamed of.
Now the wish has come true.
Being able to stand in the same space with the one you love, even the candlelight on the ground and the gray stone walls look particularly pleasing to the eye.
Xu Zhiyan didn't say any more nonsense. He chose a position after a moment's thought. Worried that it would be difficult to attack through the cloth, he reached out and grabbed the ghost's right hand, pulled up his sleeve, and aimed at his wrist.
But the hand holding the spike could not let go.
Seeing his hesitation, the ghost said gently: "It's okay."
But Xu Zhiyan became even more nervous after hearing this.
He considered himself to be a calm and self-controlled person. Even if someone said that he could avoid system detection by stabbing a spike into his body, he would definitely do it to himself without hesitation.
When he heard the ghosts' request, he thought he could definitely do it, but when the moment of execution came, it was extremely difficult.
He took a deep breath and raised the spike in his hand high.
But when it fell, the sharp tip of the cone hit the ghost's pale wrist and did not move forward even a little bit.
Xu Zhiyan felt like he was sick.
He found that the task of stabbing Bai Jin with a weapon was much more difficult than he thought.
His thoughts were in a mess and he had countless questions to ask Bai Jin.
Are these seals really okay? I had to collect so many slices to finally remove the seals. If I nail them into the body again in the copy, will it have an impact on the original body? The other party said that this body was strange. Did he say that because he couldn't nail a few more seals on himself? Or...
Too many questions and too little time.
At this moment he realized that he cared about the other person more than he thought.
In just a few seconds, countless thoughts flashed through Xu Zhiyan's mind. He had a quick mind and could always think of more.
Although most slices are unreliable, ghosts and gods have always been steady. Now that time is tight, he chooses to explain some miscellaneous physical phenomena at this time, which makes it hard not to doubt his intentions.
A low, hoarse laugh came from above.
Before Xu Zhiyan could react, the back of his hand was grabbed and he was forced to clench the cold spike in his hand.
The next second, he heard the sound of a sharp blade breaking through skin.
The weapon representing the power of the seal easily penetrated the wrist of the demon and carved the seal firmly.
Before Xu Zhiyan could come to his senses, the system detection began. A feeling of being spied on came from all directions, as if countless eyes were checking certain places, making people feel uncomfortable.
But this experience of being scanned was only fleeting.
The ghost seemed to be very experienced. With more than a dozen chains of rules entangled in him, he accurately controlled the power of his new body to the point where it would not be discovered.
The only sound in the dim altar was the two people's gradually calming breathing.
After an unknown amount of time, Xu Zhiyan finally heard the ghost speak in a faint voice.
"Avoided for now."
He raised his arm, the candle went out, and the surroundings suddenly became bright.
There is clearly no light source.
When Xu Zhiyan looked up, the ghost in the priest's robe had already folded his wings, and those strange and heavy chains of rules were also gone... Only the one that pierced his wrist was still there.
Realizing that the ghosts and gods meant that they had successfully avoided system detection, he breathed a sigh of relief and relaxed completely.
His overly tense body suddenly relaxed, Xu Zhiyan staggered two steps, his legs feeling a little numb.
Damn it, it was all the fault of the ghosts and Slice. When they came over, they stuck him in front of the stone altar and he couldn't even stand straight...
As if noticing something was wrong with him, the ghost reached out and embraced the young man, carrying him easily to the stone altar to sit down. He reached out and grasped Xu Zhiyan's muscular calf, pressing gently.
He said nothing, with a faint smile on his face, and his movements were very natural.
Xu Zhiyan's body trembled when he was pinched, and his whole body became even stiffer.
He felt like he had a lot of questions to ask, but at this moment he couldn't say anything. He could only watch in silence as the ghost pinched his right leg and then his left leg. His wrists, which were pierced by chains, were not at all inflexible.
But when Xu Zhiyan finally decided what to ask, the area around the altar began to change.
The candle disappeared.
Something that didn't belong here in any way appeared in the place of the candle.
Soft and smooth carpets, desks decorated with gold and silver, plump and expensive sofas...
Xu Zhiyan stared in shock at the underground altar that had begun to renovate itself automatically, his eyes wide open, and he subconsciously put aside the question he was about to ask.
He immediately took out his cell phone and confirmed from the barrage of comments that he had been out of contact since he started the underground live broadcast, and he was barely relieved. Otherwise, with the appearance of this high-end luxury house decoration, even a fool would know that there was something wrong with the priest!
"It's okay. Actually, there's no need to be so exaggerated."
After experiencing some mental pressure the second time, Xu Zhiyan was much more relaxed when facing ghosts and gods again.
As he said this, he kicked his legs, signaling the other party to let go.
Seeing that the ghost seemed to want to say something, Xu Zhiyan spoke immediately, with a stern face for fear that the other party would say something that would interrupt his thoughts.
"I don't know how much you can hear about this in the props, but the situation in the dungeon has changed now. The people in the Utopia want to kill all the players here. I'm not sure whether I should get the key in this round."
He first talked about the serious business of the copy.
Cen Jinyue's actions disrupted his plan, but he did not want to confront the Utopia right now. Of course, the main reason was that the strength gap between the two sides was too great and they could not defeat each other.
If his ability allows, he certainly hopes to deal with Cen Jinyue and then make good money.
God knows how suitable this survival copy is for business.
He swore that he had never found such a convenient way to make money so far!
Cen Jinyue wasn't killing any players; he was clearly ripping off his clients!
Obviously, every player here needs his material output. Under the trend of multiple hunger, who doesn't like to eat a delicious roasted rabbit? Cutting off someone's financial resources is like killing their parents. He has no good feelings towards this rumored Moon God.
The ghost pondered for a moment.
He was very familiar with the abilities of this human player.
But just as He was about to speak, He was interrupted by Xu Zhiyan.
"Wait a minute, I haven't finished yet."
He waved his hand and sat on the stone altar with a serious look on his face.
"We just talked about the dungeon. Now let's talk about you."
Compared to the utopia far away in the sky, he was more worried about whether this slicing accident would have any negative impact on ghosts and gods, and on the safe house.
"Will the influence of these rule chains disappear when you leave the copy?"
"You just told me... ahem, that your body is out of control. Is it because you can't stab yourself one more time that you said that on purpose?" Otherwise, if time is urgent, it would definitely be more convenient for the ghosts and gods to come themselves.
"Which slice is the priest? Where does its memory come from?"
"And is it okay for you to openly change the underground altar so blatantly..."
After asking a bunch of questions at once, Xu Zhiyan gradually found his own rhythm.
This copy obviously didn't have a safe house. How could he take the ghosts and gods away after sealing so many powers? It was impossible for him to leave the power of the ghosts and gods here!
The ghost's expression was slightly surprised.
Then, He laughed and shook his head.
"These controls can only be slowly lifted after we return."
"The priest was originally a wing, but after encountering the internal organs, the bones and flesh were taken away, leaving only feathers..."
He patiently answered Xu Zhiyan's questions one by one.
"Before it was devoured by the doctor, Hei Yu took away the most important memory."
It preserves the most important things, landed here, waiting day after day for the original body to be found and restored to wholeness.
Ghosts and spirits can see more than slices.
He got more information, more pictures, more words...
Every frame of memory is related to Xu Zhiyan.
There are also some times when He was in endless darkness, before His consciousness became blurred.
He remembered that he had taken out those memories and looked at them over and over again. Even after losing most of his body and strength, he still refused to let go of these memories.
Although some parts are still missing in the middle, the most important things seem to have been taken back.
But thinking of the additional content of the conversation, He reached out and touched the young man's black hair.
"Those memories are all about you. Every time I wake up from the void, I can get images of you, but I can't remember more."
He spoke slowly and sincerely, and there was indeed some other information in his mind.
[He is a very fragile human being.]
[He is dying.]
[If you are willing to divide the power, then I can ensure that he continues to live well...]
The cold mechanical sound repeated itself.
Every time, He would see Xu Zhiyan at different time periods lying on the hospital bed, unconscious, chased by death.
But there is no need to tell the other party all this.
He likes Xu Zhiyan's cunning eyes and his clear voice... After seeing him near death too many times, he just wants Xu Zhiyan to live, follow his heart, and be carefree.
“We have a deep bond.”
The ghost said with a smile.
As if he had thought of something, he added.
"Although I haven't found other memories yet, these extra memories are the most important. I think even if other memories are restored, I won't make any other choices."
Because Party A was too honest, and had even specifically told him about the cat-changing incident and reported it to him saying "there was something to be concealed", Xu Zhiyan believed the words of the ghosts and gods without a doubt.
His Adam's apple moved slightly.
The last thing the ghost added...
The other party was responding to his previous words.
He was in a state of anxiety so he said this in response to the pursuit of blood.
His heart beat faster and faster, and Xu Zhiyan stammered, not knowing how to answer.
But when he raised his head and carefully looked at the ghost, he accidentally met the other's eyes. The scarlet demon eyes with horizontal pupils slowly turned golden and gradually enlarged under his gaze... wait, enlarged?
Realizing that ghosts and gods were approaching him, Xu Zhiyan inexplicably felt a sense of danger.
He supported himself on the stone slab and tried to move back a little, but the next moment his ankle was grabbed. He couldn't retreat and was even dragged closer.
"Don't look me in the eyes."
"I really can't impose any more rules on myself. This body is indeed harder to control than I thought."
He did not lie, He just concealed part of it.
While he was in a daze, a new spike was stuffed into Xu Zhiyan's hand, and there was something suppressed in the ghost's voice.
"Now, if you don't want me to do something, drive it into my chest."
He thought he could control it, but the precious memories that came flooding back made him want to do more...
Xu Zhiyan's breathing almost stopped.
He didn't understand why the choice was put in his hands again!
