Yue Ya noticed that the Red Ghost King's hands were shaking. He raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you really letting us go?"
The Red Ghost King cleared his throat and said politely, "Of course, please leave quickly. There will be no more obstacles on the road ahead."
This is not an invitation at all, it's simply urging them to leave quickly.
Zhuang Yan laughed: "This is the first time I've seen a ghost king who is so timid. How did he become a ghost king?"
Yun Yu: "Maybe they are pretending to be weak and waiting for us to let down our guard before they strike. These NPCs are very cunning, we have to be on guard."
"That makes sense," Zhuang Yan clapped his hands. "If that's the case, we can't let him go."
"No, no," the Red-robed Ghost King waved his hands anxiously, "I just came to see you off. I have absolutely no other intentions."
"Really?" Yue Ya patted the empty seat next to him and said, "Come here, let's talk."
The Ghost King quickly refused: "No, it's not appropriate."
Yue Ya curled her lips: "You want me to go over to your side?"
"That's even more inappropriate." The Ghost King forced a stiff smile, boarded the ghost ship, and sat upright.
Yue Ya glanced at him and said, "Relax, this is not a pirate ship."
The Ghost King looked at Yue Ya and Fei Fei on his left, then at the glutton Bai Ge on his right, and then at Zhuang Yan who seemed to be smiling in front of him. He became even more nervous: "Brother... what do you want to talk to me about?"
[Big brother is ok, do you want to call me big brother, big boss or uncle? ]
[Relax, do you think he really wants to talk to you? He just kidnapped you]
[Hahaha, how can there be such a cowardly ghost king? Does this ghost king take turns?]
[Look at the Ghost King's shaking hands. I feel pity for him.]
[Ghost King: The boat is full of big guys, I’m so scared, I hug my red self]
Yue Ya asked the boatman to speed up and said casually, "Nothing, I just want to see how much you know about the Hell's Mouth."
"The Mouth of Hell?" The Ghost King had a strange expression on his face. "How do you know that place? Why are you asking?"
Yueya: “We are going there.”
“Oh, you’re going there…” The Ghost King suddenly widened his eyes and spoke incoherently: “You’re going to hell, the mouth of hell?!”
Yue Ya held the Ghost King's shoulder and said, "It seems you know something."
The ghost king's face turned pale, and the blood color on his bright red lips faded. "It is rumored that the Hell's Mouth can resurrect the dead, so so many people choose to throw their family members' bodies into this river. In fact, very few people can climb out of the Hell's Mouth, and the one or two who occasionally climb out are all monsters! The Hell's Mouth is the monster's lair!"
After the Ghost King was excited, he found that Yue Ya was staring at him thoughtfully. He swallowed nervously and said, "You should give up this idea. It's not too late to turn back now."
Yue Ya narrowed his eyes and approached the Ghost King: "You are not the red-clothed evil ghost, right?"
The ghost king's face changed and he blinked rapidly: "I am so fierce and powerful, how could I not be a red-clothed evil ghost? Look at the clothes I'm wearing, how bright red they are!"
"I've been observing you, and I just found two flaws. I heard that the rage of ghosts can dye clothes scarlet," Yue Ya lifted the ghost king's outer robe and pointed at the snow-white inner garment, "but I've never seen a red-dressed person leave a base layer for himself. If you want to pretend, you should pretend to be more conspicuous. Leaving two white edges on the outside is too conspicuous."
The Ghost King covered his collar in shame and anger, and said stubbornly: "This is a personal hobby, I just like white inner clothes!" No wonder this person has been staring at him, it turns out he is looking for flaws!
"Second, you don't have any evil spirit. The real evil spirit is this fan. Without the fan, you are just an ordinary wronged soul." Yue Ya held the ghost king's fan, his eyes heavy: "Am I right?"
Yue Ya noticed the fan from the beginning. The fan was scarlet and dazzling, and it was soaked with blood. Holding it in his hand, he could still feel the stinging pain.
"Shh!" The Ghost King said nervously, "Keep your voice down!"
The ghost king tried to take the fan back but failed. With red eyes, he whispered: "Although this fan is powerful, I don't know how to use it. If no one loves me and I don't have a place to be born, who would want to wear this red dress and pretend to be a ghost? I do this so that I can live in this river that eats ghosts but doesn't spit out their bones. Please don't expose me in front of these evil ghosts."
Yueya let go: "Go away."
"I am grateful for your kindness. I will never see you again!" The Ghost King jumped off the ghost ship and slipped away quickly.
"This guy runs faster, and we won't eat him..." Seeing Fei Fei's regretful look, Zhuang Yan changed his words: "If he continues to stay on the boat, he will indeed be eaten."
Yun Yu pointed at the ghost king's panicked back and said, "The ghost king seems to have taken the wrong path. How is he going downstream?"
"Oh, is this guy directionally challenged?" Zhuang Yan shouted, "Ghost King, you're going in the wrong direction! If you keep running, you'll reach the mouth of hell!"
The distance was a bit far and the wind was a bit strong, so the Ghost King didn't hear it. He ran faster and soon disappeared in the thick fog.
[I can't even tell the difference between upstream and downstream, what a confused person]
[At this rate, the Ghost King may reach the mouth of hell faster than the host]
[One second you disappear from the Jianghu, the next you see him at the mouth of hell]
Yue Ya ordered the boatman to chase after him, and after a while, the scream of the Ghost King was heard from the front.
"Aaaahh I don't want to go to the Hellmouth!"
Yue Ya threw out a vine and followed the Ghost King's breath into the thick fog. The vine quickly tied up something.
Yue Ya tried to retract the vines, but was dragged into the thick fog by a force.
"Swoosh——" The ghost ship fell into the abyss with everyone.
…
【Is there anything you fear? 】
In the darkness, Yue Ya heard a strange male voice asking.
Yue Ya inevitably thought along this line of question. Before entering this game, he was just an ordinary sculpture student. After entering the game, he encountered many incredible things. He lived in a community of ashes, slept in a haunted house, visited a shopping mall for the undead, and went to a lost island... He had seen evil spirits, evil people, zombies, monsters, and evil gods, but he seemed to have never been truly afraid.
He has many partners he wants to protect, but these partners are very strong and can not only protect themselves but also protect him.
Yue Ya chuckled and answered honestly, "No."
The strange male voice seemed a little surprised, and after a long pause, he said:
I think you do.
"Okay, then can you elaborate?"
【……】
[Everyone who comes to the Exile Land is a loser, don't be too arrogant. From now on, you will be surrounded by complete despair and fear. No player has ever left the Exile Land alive. Do you think you can be an exception?]
"able."
【………】
Yue Ya yawned: "Are you done?"
[I will keep an eye on you and see how arrogant you can be.]
Yue Ya felt someone push him, he fell to the ground, and blocked the light in front of his eyes with an awkward look.
He sat up and blinked several times before his vision returned to normal. There were several people standing in front of him, some of them holding weapons, and the atmosphere seemed unfriendly.
Yue Ya looked up and saw two men and one woman standing in front of him. They were all a bit embarrassed after what they had experienced. They stared at him closely, their eyes alert, as if they were facing a great enemy.
"Player?" Yue Ya rubbed his wrist: "I'm a player too, no need to be so nervous, right?"
The female player raised her chin and looked behind Yue Ya: "You are a player, why are you here with Hong Yi?"
Yue Ya turned around and saw the Red-clothed Ghost King with a sad face. She couldn't help but smile: "It's a long story. He is a fake Red-clothed Ghost King who poses no threat. Don't worry."
“Stop laughing…” The Red Ghost King sat on the ground in despair, covering his face. “This must be the mouth of hell. I’m done. I’m no longer the carefree water ghost. There’s no water here. Will I die of thirst… Why did I take the wrong road again…”
Yue Ya took out a bottle of water from the player's backpack and handed it to him: "Wake up, you have been dead for a long time."
This guy certainly doesn't look like a serious red-clothed guy. The three players let down their guard and looked at Yue Ya again.
"You're so young and you're almost at the maximum level?" The male player with pigtails stretched out his hand to him: "Let me introduce myself again. My name is Lao Ji."
Yueya used the force to stand up: "Crescent Moon."
The other two players also introduced themselves. The girl was called Ke Ke and the boy was called Twelve. They were teammates from the previous dungeon and were exiled here because of mission failure.
Ke Ke said: "There are sixteen of us in total, and I don't know where the remaining thirteen went."
Yueya nodded: "My friend is missing too, maybe because he was born in a different place."
Yue Ya looked around. It was a very small secret room with no doors or windows and no objects in it. There were only white walls and a rough floor.
【Welcome to Exile, this is your last game. 】
The strange male voice that had spoken to Yue Ya before sounded again, and he was talking to all the players.
