"Where are Zhuang Yan and Yun Yu?" Yue Ya asked the three players standing in front of the door.
Xiaoman and Daan looked at each other without saying anything. Yuancun explained, "Oh, there was some movement in the store just now, and they went over to investigate."
Yue Ya raised an eyebrow: "Everyone go together?"
"Yes, they all went together," Yuancun paused, "The clue I want to tell you is related to this."
Yue Ya: "The noise they made during their investigation was quite quiet. I didn't hear anything at all."
"because……"
"These are all irrelevant. Aren't you here to pay me back?" Yue Ya smiled innocently and stretched out her little hand: "Give it to me."
Yuan Cunban squatted down, smiled at Yue Ya, and took out a few ghost money: "We have discussed it and will return it to you with interest. Thank you."
Yue Ya glanced at the paper money for the dead, all of which had a face value of ten thousand, and curled the corners of her lips again.
When the paper money for the underworld was about to be handed to him, Yue Ya withdrew his hand, and a thick vine quickly wrapped around Yuancun's wrist. Yuancun was caught off guard, and several pieces of paper money for the underworld were crushed by the vine, immediately forming a dark red evil magic circle.
Yue Ya retreated quickly, but his arm was still hit by the light mist of the magic circle, and it turned red and felt a burning pain.
Yuan Cun was dragged to the spot by the vines and was soon swallowed by the magic circle. Several black lines emerged from the magic circle and pierced through his limbs.
"Stop! Stop!" Yuancun screamed in terror and used his skills to stop the formation of the magic circle, but to no avail.
He looked at Yue Ya with tears in his eyes, and said in a desperate voice: "Save me... I was wrong... Please save me..."
A black line pierced through his shaved neck, and his unfinished words turned into vague babblings. He kept crying but could not utter complete sentences.
A red line passed through his heart, and the expression on his face froze first, then became wooden and dull. All sounds disappeared, and the person covered by the magic circle turned into a fresh puppet.
Presumably, these people reached some kind of agreement with the innkeeper, received some help from her, and wanted to plot against Yue Ya under the pretext of paying back the money.
As long as he sacrificed a Yue Ya, he could get the benefits promised by the innkeeper and the 3 million bounty, and leave this hellish place. What's more, the current Yue Ya was cursed and looked so easy to deal with.
Unfortunately, their rank was not high enough, they were not familiar with the business, so they failed to carry out the conspiracy and instead became pawns in the hands of the innkeeper.
Yue Ya looked at the two people outside the door and said coldly, "Your way of paying back the money is really unique."
Unlike Yuancun, A'man and Da'an had received Yueya's kindness. If Yueya had not rescued them, they would have died on the first night of their stay.
Xiaoman gritted her teeth and said, "Brother Yue, don't blame us. The innkeeper said that tonight is the night of the lunar eclipse. Our worth has increased a lot. If we don't make enough money to leave before then, we will die here. As long as we hand you over to the boss, each of us can get 5 million. This money can be converted into points, which is the guarantee for the next dungeon."
"Stop talking nonsense. You want his life but also want him to understand you?" Daan interrupted Xiaoman, took out a gun and aimed it at Yueya: "Your companions have all fainted, no one will come to save you. We have decided to be the bad guy today. You can complain to Yama later!"
Yue Ya was not angry, but just smiled faintly: "I have many companions."
Daan didn't think about Yueya's words. He thought, no matter how powerful Yueya was, he couldn't handle the two of them and a puppet in this state. He raised his bow and aimed at Yueya and fired! Hundreds of sharp arrows appeared out of thin air and shot towards Yueya.
Yue Ya waved his hand, and the vines that rose from the ground blocked most of the arrows, quickly devouring them. The arrows that escaped were also intercepted by Yue Ya's puppets.
A gust of cold wind blew, and puppet corpses appeared in the room and the corridor, with their limbs and heads hanging down, surrounding Xiaoman and Daan.
Lulu and the little puppet appeared behind Yueya, staring at them closely. Although Lulu was small, she had a strong murderous aura, and no one dared to look down on her.
Xiaoman and Daan broke out in cold sweats and their hands began to tremble.
Yue Ya looked at them and said in a neutral tone: "I said, I have many companions. I used to consider you as companions, but not now."
Xiaoman and Daan finally realized what a foolish decision they had made, but there was no turning back.
[I was broken by Yuezai's words. He has always helped when he could. How could you, such ruthless people, treat him like this!]
[Give your lives back to these ungrateful bastards, you don’t deserve it]
[Want to team up with the boss to kill the anchor, but don’t you consider your own abilities?]
[As long as they wait for the anchor to complete the plan tomorrow night, they will win easily, but they are dominated by greed and only think about calculating their own people]
Daan clenched his fists and said, "Don't be afraid. The innkeeper won't give up this operation so easily. Reinforcements will arrive soon."
Xiaoman nodded, an ice sword appeared in her palm, and a whirlwind instantly swept into the room.
At this moment, a man in a suit appeared behind them. Xiaoman turned around and saw a paper-made smiling face, and almost bit her tongue. She quickly realized that this strange-looking man was the driver of the wedding car today!
The fear in Xiaoman's eyes turned into joy: "It's the boss's man! We're saved. Come on, help us kill...him..."
Before Xiaoman could finish her words, she was suddenly strangled by the wedding car driver. In less than ten seconds, her body turned into a mummy.
The shaved puppet that attacked Yueya had already had all his emotions severed. The helpless Daan looked at the wedding car driver in shock: "You, look carefully before you kill me! I'm your boss's man!"
"Sorry, I killed the wrong person," the wedding car driver chuckled and stretched out his hand to Daan: "Come over to me, I will protect you."
Daan took a step forward, then stopped abruptly: "You are lying, you are also a traitor!"
Daan suddenly hit the ground with his sword and prepared to escape.
The wedding car driver grabbed his neck and said with a smile: "I'm not a traitor." I have been loyal to only one person from beginning to end.
After absorbing the soul, the wedding car driver threw away the mummy without mercy, slowly took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands, and put on the black gloves again.
Yue Ya didn't expect this direction, and for a moment he couldn't figure out the purpose of the wedding car driver, so he didn't let his friends retreat. He looked up at the wedding car driver, and that inexplicably familiar feeling came over him again.
"What do you want to do?" Yue Ya asked.
The wedding car driver knelt down, and the curve representing his lips on his face curved upwards: "Please take me away, I am an awakened NPC, I can help you."
"Brother!" Lulu grabbed Yueya's shoulders in surprise.
Yueya could understand Lulu’s feelings. This was the first time she met someone of her kind. Yueya wanted to comfort Lulu, but found that she was shorter than Lulu and could only pat the back of her hand.
Fortunately, the audience was too shocked by this incident to laugh at him.
[Oh my god! This is the second awakened NPC after Lulu!]
[But why did he help the anchor? Was it to leave this instance?]
[This NPC's ability is also terrifying. The two players turned into mummies immediately after being touched by his hand. If the anchor does not understand his purpose and keeps him around, it will be very dangerous.]
[Why wasn't he wiped out? Judging from what he said, he might have awakened a long time ago]
Yue Ya pursed her lips and asked the wedding car driver: "Who are you?"
The wedding car driver curled his fingers awkwardly: "I... I don't have a name. I won't hurt you. I just want to leave here. If you are worried, you can make me your puppet."
He was eager to leave Huangquan Inn, but he was willing to pay the price of becoming a puppet. Yue Ya didn't know whether this NPC wanted freedom or just wanted to go with him.
Yue Ya put away the puppet corpses and puppets, and the room returned to peace.
He wanted to ask clearly: "Did we know each other before?"
The wedding car driver was silent for a moment: "I don't remember."
“When did you start to develop a sense of independence?”
"A long time ago, after I discovered that I was a virtual character in the game, I never used my awakened abilities, nor did I do anything out of line, so I was not noticed by the main system. I have been waiting for the opportunity to leave. I don't know why, but I feel that you are the opportunity I have been waiting for."
Once the awakened NPC is detected by the main system, it will be wiped out.
It takes a lot of determination for the wedding car driver to be honest with Yueya.
Yueya sighed: "Can you remove the curse from me?"
The wedding car driver shook his head: "Sorry, this is the highest level curse, only the boss can break it, but I can try to control her with the power of awakening, what do you think?"
Yue Ya: “I don’t think so.” Isn’t that asking the main system to wipe you out?
The wedding car driver lowered his head a little frustrated, thinking: I can't even solve such a small problem, I will definitely be abandoned.
A red umbrella was handed to the wedding car driver, and Yue Ya said, "Come inside the umbrella."
The wedding car driver looked up, his eyes turned into straight lines, and several black lines appeared on his forehead. He looked terrified and sad.
He knew that this umbrella was used to store cat food! Not only was it abandoned, but it also became cat food? Woohoo.
Seeing the vivid emojis on the wedding car driver's face, Yue Ya couldn't help but laugh: "Don't let your imagination run wild. Go into the umbrella first and pretend to be captured by me to deceive the main system. After I finish other things, I will mold a body for you."
Lulu came up to the wedding car driver and curled her eyes: "Brother is really good at making puppets."
"You don't have a name, which is not convenient," Yue Ya asked him, "What do you want to be called?"
