Chapter 457 Heading to the Bone-Melting Pit; 422's Identity and True Form, a Young Boy?



Wan Buxun is pointing out important locations on the map:

"Because there is no safe air route in the border area outside Yulou Pass, we have to switch to land travel immediately after leaving Yulou Pass. This location is west of Shisanlin."

Wan Buxun drew on the map with his finger: "Continue northwest from this position for less than ten kilometers, and you will reach your destination."

"However, it's difficult for us to get that close. Before coming here, I inquired about the situation in the Tianzhou Pavilion area, and the result was not optimistic."

Chang Le's gaze suddenly fell on his face, and Wan Buxun nodded when he met his gaze: "That's the truth. At least for those young people who are at the sixth or seventh level, it's very dangerous."

"The message said that this small-scale mutant surge came without any warning. Three gregarious mutant species suddenly appeared on the western border and attempted to break through to the border area. The two teams we are looking for are trapped in the area currently surrounded by the three mutant groups."

Wan Buxun circled a location on the map: "Bone Melting Pit".

"Bone-melting pit?"

The moment the question popped into Chang Le's head, a familiar voice rang out.

[Bone-Melting Pit: Legend has it that this is a dangerous place left over from the era of the gods three hundred years ago; it is an irregularly shaped, circular basin.]

[Among them were traps left by predecessors; people had entered them before, but none had come out. The only thing that emerged was half a bone, with strange, melted marks on it.]

Chang Le's face immediately darkened: "So, does that mean Bai Xie and the others' chances of survival are...?"

Not necessarily.

The Bone-Melting Pit is very large; only the innermost area contains such dangerous things.

They were all incredibly shrewd; they couldn't possibly be unaware of the eerie presence at the core of the Bone-Melting Pit, and they wouldn't rashly risk their lives.

When 422 was making this analysis, Wan Buxun also said, "Therefore, we must get there as soon as possible to stop the besieging aliens from retreating inward and prevent them from having to enter the core area to avoid the aliens."

Iris agreed, then continued, "After we land, we'll do this..."

Chang Le's thoughts had already drifted away.

She kept her eyes fixed on the large rabbit floating in her mind.

422 felt a chill run down its spine from being stared at, and its two large ears slowly drooped down.

Chang Le suddenly chuckled enigmatically, "You're still here? I thought..."

She gave a half-smile, a mixture of relief and mockery.

422 grinned, tentatively trying to get closer: "Hehe, of course I'm still here~ I told you I'd stay with you~"

"Stop." Chang Le covered the rabbit's face with his palm and pushed it back.

She warned, "Speak properly."

422 nodded vigorously.

Chang Le sized him up and asked, "You saw everything that happened in the game?"

[I've seen 95% of it. After you regained consciousness, due to the mental confusion in your brain, I was afraid of increasing the burden on your brain, so I logged off. When I woke up again, you were out of the game.]

"Oh~" Chang Le said meaningfully, "So you know everything that happened after the game ended."

422 covered her mouth.

Chang Le grabbed the rabbit and said in a sinister tone, "You always knew this wasn't a book! You've been lying to me all along!"

422 pouted, grabbed her arm with her two little hands, and said in a wronged tone:

【I was wrong, but... but I didn't say those things willingly. My role was to tell you those things, to guide you to gain more love from the Hua family and become their darling.】

Chang Le grinned: "The group's darling? If you don't explain yourself, I'll wipe them all out!"

No! You can't do this! Impulsiveness is the devil, sister!

422 begged for mercy:

[Please spare me, I can't just say things like that, I can't disrupt the order and say those things, I'll be finished, waaaaah...]

[Lele, how could you bear to let me die? ~ *sobs*]

Chang Le let go of the rabbit with disgust, and the rabbit almost fell to the ground.

Seeing that she didn't intend to pick him up, the rabbit slowly floated up on its own.

Chang Le crossed his arms: "Then let's talk about something else, like, what exactly are you?"

422 hesitated for a moment, then sighed deeply:

Okay, I can say a little about this.

[I really am a system, I'm not lying to you about that, but I'm not one of those systems from novels like the Transmigration Management Bureau or the Time and Space Management Bureau. I'm a man-made system.]

I have no physical form; I use your body as a vessel and, with the help of your alien energy, I can perform abilities such as "hacking" and "teleportation."

I am bound to you; I exist because of you.

Chang Le then asked, "Who created you?"

After stammering for a while, 422 said, "I am the same as Ye Buqi's creator. I mean, the creator of Ye Buqi's consciousness, not the Bionic Robot No. 1."

My birth and my attributes share similarities.

Chang Le's pupils trembled slightly, but he controlled himself and did not show any unusual expression because Wan Buxun and Iris were still around.

"So, Ye Buqi still exists? Where is she now? And in what form does she exist?"

After she asked that question, the image of the playful, adorable rabbit in her mind became somewhat complicated:

If you want to find the final key, go to Hana-ran's laboratory.

It's Hua Lan's laboratory again!

Chang Le made up his mind that when he went back to look for Hua Lan, Fu Guang would happen to be there and he could ask him to keep an eye out for her.

Chang Le suddenly had a flash of inspiration and squinted at 422.

【? ? ……?】

What are you doing?

Your eyes look like you want to devour me!
