Chapter 42: I'm Really Not the Final Boss of the Horror Game
The group huddled together and wept, marveling at their miraculous survival.
Baiyou watched them quietly.
The young man was deeply moved and his eyes welled up with tears.
He looked at Bai You, and although he was still scared, he sincerely apologized to her, "I'm sorry, Ms. Qinqin, I misunderstood you just now."
Bai You said emotionlessly, "It's okay, it's good that you have a brain now."
Young man: "..." Thank you so much.
After Li Mingming and the others finished recounting their harrowing experience, Bai You looked at them wiping away their tears and calmly said, "The Underworld has changed the rules of the game. The original rule was that all monsters were NPCs for the players during the day, and only came out at night to reap lives. The appearance of all monsters during the day was given by the Underworld, and at night they are our original forms."
After a pause, Bai You smiled, her delicate and pretty face softening slightly. "I guess the Easter egg Ming Si was referring to is that I didn't slaughter innocent players at night. And I'm no longer in the form of a monster. I estimate I'll become a player tomorrow."
Because Bai You had saved Li Mingming and the others' lives, the group wholeheartedly agreed with Bai You's logical analysis!
Looking at Bai You's seemingly shining eyes, Li Mingming smiled sincerely and said, "Congratulations in advance on becoming human!"
Bai You smiled and said, "Thank you."
The night passed peacefully and warmly as the group chatted openly and honestly.
Li Mingming was gently woken up by Wang Rou, "Mingming, Qinqin has made breakfast. She asked me to call you to eat."
Upon hearing this, Li Mingming groggily opened her eyes.
She rubbed her eyes, smiled, and said, "Okay, let's go eat."
Seeing Li Mingming sit down at the dining table after washing up, Bai You took a sip of juice and said calmly, "I'm sorry to inform everyone, but I am still a weirdo."
The group of people were stunned for a moment.
But the fear from before is gone.
Bai You continued, "However, I am no longer a murderous monster; I can help you find clues."
Li Mingming understood Bai You's implication.
Baiyou is openly helping them.
Li Mingming looked at Bai You expectantly and asked hopefully, "Do you have any good ideas?"
Bai You nodded and smiled gently, "Yes, but it requires your cooperation."
—
Xu Wen never imagined that he would become Li Gui!
Does that mean he has to provide clues to players during the day according to the game rules?
Why should I?!
Xu Wen felt this was very unfair!
But he's already involved in this game, and there's no way he can escape Hades' control!
The underworld is truly terrifying.
He placed a "curse" on each of the monsters.
Actually, it's more like a shackle than a curse!
If any monsters dare to break the rules of the game, they will be punished with burning hearts.
When Xu Wen was playing as a player, he was terrified of being killed by Bai You.
He dared not challenge the underworld.
Thinking about it, Xu Wen narrowed his eyes.
If the original Li Gui could become a player.
Then, everything comes without any effort!
Night fell quickly.
Xu Wenhua made a scathing statement.
He had a blue face and fangs, and looked ferocious. He hopped around like a zombie, appearing and disappearing unpredictably.
The pitiful screams rose and fell, the air seemed to be soaked in blood, blood flowed like a river! Corpses lay everywhere!
Li Mingming watched in horror as all the monsters seemed to be carrying out a large-scale massacre like madmen, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
At this moment, Baiyou quietly appeared beside her and said in a low voice, "Don't be afraid, your talisman can scare them away."
Li Mingming trusted Bai You a lot and nodded, saying, "Then I'll go and lure him over now."
Just as Li Mingming was about to rush out, the young man grabbed her!
The young man said, "You're a girl, it's too dangerous. I should do this!"
Li Mingming said gratefully to the young man, "It's alright. Your leg injury hasn't healed yet. Besides, I have a lot of props in my backpack. Trust me, I have experience!"
The young man was still worried and was about to say something more when Old Yang whispered, "Trust her, she's very good at playing dumb."
Hearing Old Yang say this, the young man was finally relieved.
Li Mingming quickly came into Xu Wen's view.
Xu Wengang swallowed a player's head and then saw Li Mingming.
Xu Wen grinned menacingly and leaped over.
He leaped three feet high and arrived in front of Li Mingming almost instantly!
With claws outstretched, just as Xu Wen's claws were about to pierce Li Mingming's chest, Li Mingming nimbly dodged and took out a prop to slap Xu Wen's forehead!
Xu Wen instantly felt an intense burning sensation! His scalp tingled with pain!
He screamed in agony!
Just as the prop talisman was about to disappear.
A white pomelo appeared out of nowhere—!
She tore Xu Wen's body in two with her bare hands!
Xu Wen looked at Bai You in disbelief.
Bai You looked at Xu Wen, her smile cold. "Xu Wen, I know you're not dead yet. But I can keep toying with you like this."
Xu Wen glared at Bai You, his eyes burning with fury that seemed to want to devour her!
Baiyou crushed his minced meat with her feet.
Xu Wen was in so much pain that he almost fainted.
In the game's rules, the fierce and monstrous BOSS is simply killed by other monsters.
Only players can access this feature.
Li Mingming walked up to Xu Wen and stared at his "corpse".
Li Mingming: "Xu Wen, I won't let you off so easily."
As she spoke, Wang Rou walked over with Li Mingming's backpack.
Wang Rou handed the backpack to Li Mingming.
Wang Rou glanced at Xu Wen.
A strong urge to vomit overwhelmed her, but she endured it.
She said to Xu Wen, "We will avenge the souls who died at your hands!"
Xu Wen laughed heartily.
Xu Wen: "You can't kill me!"
Li Mingming said with a firm gaze, "I can always be a player."
Wang Rou looked at Li Mingming, shocked.
Old Yang said incredulously, "There must be a way for us to kill Xu Wen!"
The young man chimed in, "That's right, Sister Mingming! You shouldn't think like that!"
Bai You glanced at Li Mingming with a complicated expression, then lowered her voice and said, "Li Mingming, you will get out."
Li Mingming looked at Bai You, the only one who knew the inside story, and remained steadfast in her conviction, "I created this game. This is the world I created, and I am responsible for it."
Wang Rou and the others looked at Li Mingming in shock.
Tears streamed down Li Mingming's face as she said with deep remorse, "I failed to protect innocent people in the game, and I should take responsibility for that."
Wang Rou loudly refuted Li Mingming, "Mingming! You can't think like that!"
Old Yang quickly said, "Mingming, this isn't your fault!"
The young man seemed relaxed, but he was actually comforting Li Mingming by saying, "Sister Mingming, you did nothing wrong with your writing. It's this world that's messed up."
Bai You patted Li Mingming's head and smiled faintly, saying, "They're right."
