Chapter 23: Mission Objective of Almost Meeting the King of Hell



Almost dying! ?

Zhu Yuanqing's eyes widened. 007, who had been silent for a long time, also emerged at this moment and silently said in his mind: [Host, Xu Zhi is almost suffocating at the bottom of the pool...]

It had wanted to remind its host a long time ago, but the two of them were so close to each other, and due to its privacy rights, it could only watch Xu Zhi's gradually decreasing health value in the small dark room and worry about it.

The mission objective won’t just disappear like this, right…?

Not to mention 007, even Zhu Yuanqing was stunned for two seconds by the news.

His expression immediately turned serious. He grabbed Pei Xia's arm and asked, "Where are they?"

Pei Xia felt a little jealous seeing him so anxious, but after all, he was the one who promised Zhu Yuanqing to spare Xu Zhi's life, and in the blink of an eye, he was almost dead, so he naturally didn't dare to say more.

As for the fact that I kissed her too hard, I'd better keep it deep in my heart.

With a wave of his hand, a black figure lying down appeared beside the swimming pool not far away.

"Here."

The man lay wetly beside the swimming pool, motionless and stiff as a dead fish.

Zhu Yuanqing was so focused on the health of the target that he ignored the hand that was stretched out beside him. He stood up with the help of a chair and strode towards Xu Zhi.

Pei Xia pursed her lips, retracted her half-extended hand, and the murderous intent in her eyes grew stronger.

At this moment, Zhu Yuanqing, who had already walked a few steps, suddenly turned around and waved at him, asking in a puzzled tone, "Come over?"

The murderous intent in Pei Xia's eyes disappeared, replaced by a bright smile. He ran over in two or three steps and took the hand that Zhu Yuanqing had specially extended.

Zhu Yuanqing didn't understand why he was so happy, but since 007 had already sounded the red alert, he didn't have time to delve into it. Instead, he quickly pulled people to stand next to Xu Zhi.

Xu Zhi was still wearing his black suit. He was soaking wet, with water gathering in puddles around him. His face was pale, and his lips were completely bloodless and even a little bluish.

It seems that he is about to report to the King of Hell.

He seemed to have drunk a lot of water in the swimming pool, so cardiopulmonary resuscitation should have been performed, but Zhu Yuanqing really didn't want to contact him. He frowned and thought about what to do.

He hesitated for less than a second before a large cloud of black mist compressed into a hammer shape, then hung in the air and hit Xu Zhi's chest directly.

There were also two black mists on both sides of his cheeks. He forced his mouth open, but there were two thick rags in between, which was enough to show Pei Xia's disgust.

Zhu Yuanqing looked at him and spat out a mouthful of water, and couldn't help feeling a chill.

The two rags had turned gray, with various stains on them, some of which had even clumped together. When Xu Zhi opened his mouth, a considerable portion of the two rags fell into his mouth.

Not only that, as the black hammer fell again, Xu Zhi's legs twitched violently and he spat out another large mouthful of dirty water. The water was black and smelly, and Zhu Yuanqing could smell it from a distance.

He held his breath silently and took a few steps back.

Of course, I didn’t forget to pull Pei Xia behind as well.

After repeating this several times, the 007 alarm stopped sounding and Xu Zhi's chest began to rise and fall noticeably.

The stench lingered, and Zhu Yuanqing became even more disgusted, looking at Xu Zhi with particular displeasure.

Let Pei Xia knock him out and send him back to where he got it from. Zhu Yuanqing fanned the air in front of his nose and pulled Pei Xia back to the recliner where they had sat before.

The juicy fruits and various pastries on the table did not attract his appetite at all.

He sighed and buried his head in Pei Xia's shoulder, just as he had done to himself before.

There is no taste at all.

He turned his head away and stared blankly at the ceiling of the swimming pool. After a while, he finally remembered to ask Pei Xia.

"What happened to Xu Zhi?"

Logically speaking, Pei Xia is not a careless person, so how could he almost drown someone in such a short time?

Zhu Yuanqing was genuinely puzzled and doubtful, while Pei Xia was quietly worried, thinking about what he should say to get past this topic.

He was slow to speak, which aroused Zhu Yuanqing's suspicion: "Did something unexpected happen?"

"Did something unexpected happen in the dungeon, or is there something wrong with your ability?"

Zhu Yuanqing immediately thought of what Xu Zhi had said a long time ago, about killing the level boss to pass the level.

"Could it be that they have found a way to restrain you?"

Seeing that Zhu Yuanqing's speculations were becoming more and more outrageous, the topic was about to become whether Pei Xia could survive under the siege of these people, and Pei Xia finally opened his mouth.

He coughed lightly, not daring to look into Zhu Yuanqing's eyes, but staring at the floor beside him, as if trying to see a flower on it.

"...I was too engrossed just now and didn't pay attention..."

Zhu Yuanqing was stunned. He never expected this to be the reason. He looked at Pei Xia, who seemed to wish he could crawl into a crack in the ground, and couldn't help laughing.

The original worries and doubts were all replaced by a mixture of laughter and tears.

But after a while, he suddenly remembered something, and the smile on his face faded slightly. He asked seriously, "What about the others?"

Pei Xia gave him an innocent look.

——

Yu Wenli is not feeling well now.

Her white dress was stained with blood, and the hem had turned into rags. No one knew where her shoes were lost, and she was running barefoot on the ground covered with green vines.

The vines were not smooth, but had many thorns of varying sizes that pierced the soles of her feet with every step. Yu Wenli was in so much pain that she cried, but she didn't dare to stop.

In front of her was a small white door, only half a person's height, and it was tightly closed without a single gap.

"Wu Dong, you bastard, you actually locked me out. Just wait for me!" Yu Wenli shouted at the top of her lungs, with deep hatred in her eyes.

After the last argument with Wu Dong, although they were still together, they had long been estranged in spirit.

She has always wanted to find a new partner. Originally, her favorite was Zhu Yuanqing. If that didn't work out, she would go to Li Dapeng. But she didn't expect Xu Zhi to take the initiative to find her yesterday.

He said he had a gold coin, and if you cooperate with him, as long as you find one more gold coin, the two of them will have two gold coins, and then they will definitely survive to the end.

This was certainly not enough to impress her, but later Xu Zhi leaned over and whispered something in her ear, and it was that sentence that tied her to him.

He said, I know you killed someone.
