"Wait a minute, what do you mean, are you still going there?" Lu Zichu's face changed, but he saw Yu Qirong directly walked over there, and Tang Xingfei not only did not stop him, but also followed him.
They are all crazy.
In a flash, he figured out why Tang Xingfei was punished by the Lord God last time and asked Yu Qirong to touch that thing. It would be strange if he was not punished, but this time he was the one on the mission...
After thinking through the pros and cons, Lu Zichu decided not to sit there and wait for death. He hurried after him and caught up with Yu Qirong when he reached the door, blocking his way.
Yu Qirong didn't say anything, just stared at him with her scarlet eyes. The pressure in her eyes made Lu Zichu want to step back. That look of contempt and dominance made him miss it and feel uneasy.
Damn muscle memory.
Lu Zichu used all his strength to stop himself from retreating, and said coldly: "You can't go in."
"You sound like you're ordering me around?" Yu Qirong tilted his head, grinned as he looked Lu Zichu up and down, then retracted his smile and said coldly, "Why do you think you can teach me how to do things?"
The atmosphere instantly became tense. Yu Qirong was already brooding over the fact that Lu Zichu had deliberately lied to him, and it was rare for him to be kind-hearted enough to endure until the end of the dungeon.
In the absence of the need to pretend, Yu Qirong certainly disdains to continue to be hypocritical with him. After all, from the beginning, he was just an NPC who could not empathize with other players, and his strength was enough to protect himself.
Lu Zichu keenly noticed that Yu Qirong's aura had changed, as if the mask of disguise had suddenly been torn off, revealing terrifying fangs.
This realization both frightened and excited him.
That's right, this is Yu Qirong! The calm, self-sustaining, helpful Rong Qi in the dungeon just now was totally fake!
The Yu Qirong in his memory was so high and mighty, and the occasional glance she gave him was like the look she gave to an ant on the ground.
Lu Zichu rolled up his sleeves and found that his arms were covered with goose bumps.
"Do you really want to come in?" There was a tremor in his voice that he didn't even notice. It was muscle spasms caused by excitement. He rubbed his hands and continued, "If you want, I can help you."
Yu Qirong put away his cold look and looked at Lu Zichu with an inquiring gaze, then glanced at Su Tang who was following behind him.
"You go back first." He remembered that Su Tang could make the pain caused by the black fog disappear, but it was mostly a transfer, not a serious treatment.
Since I have already planned to cool off my relationship with Su Tang for a while, I shouldn't owe him a favor. It's better to let him go first.
Su Tang paused and slowly raised his head. In his pair of clear and lonely eyes, which had been devoid of wind and snow, there was a rare hint of confusion.
As if he didn't hear Yu Qirong's words clearly, he moved his thin lips slightly, "What?"
It was also the first time that Lu Zichu saw Tang Xingfei showing this kind of expression. He thought with glee: Well, well, I never thought that you, Tang Xingfei, would have this day!
"Didn't you understand? He asked you to leave, so I stayed here." Lu Zichu repeated it proudly, his legs trembling restlessly. He fell silent when he noticed Yu Qirong's cold eyes looking at him from the corner of his eye.
Yu Qirong looked at Su Tang. He didn't react at all to Lu Zichu's words. He just looked at him quietly, as if he was the only one in his world.
He pinched his brows in annoyance and sighed softly, "I thought I made it very clear before. Nothing has started in the first place. It's a good idea to cut losses in time, isn't it?"
"I understand." Su Tang lowered his eyes and suppressed all his emotions under his thick eyelashes. His expression was as dark and unclear as if a storm was about to come.
After he said this, his figure instantly disappeared in the copy without leaving any trace.
Yu Qirong was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect Su Tang to leave so cleanly. She thought there would be more trouble, but now she saved the trouble.
The corners of his mouth curved up, and his pale pink lips were like an unripe rose, light yet rich and bright, which made Lu Zichu's heart skip a beat.
Lu Zichu felt extremely happy when he saw Yu Qirong rejecting Tang Xingfei. He thought that what he, Lu Zichu, couldn't do, Tang Xingfei might not be able to do either.
Now it seems that Yu Qirong chose Tang Xingfei instead of him. It turned out that Tang Xingfei was just lucky.
"Is it okay?" Yu Qirong asked.
Lu Zichu was still immersed in the joy of "Yu Qirong rejected Tang Xingfei for me", and did not react for a while. He was stunned and asked, "What?"
The red eyes under Yu Qirong's snow-white eyelashes were captivating and charming. Even without any deliberate seduction, they were still very attractive, not to mention that he now had some deliberate intentions.
Yu Qirong's breath hit Lu Zichu's ears, and the electric shock-like touch was transmitted along the nerve endings. Lu Zichu heard Yu Qirong whispering: "I say, you are the Lord God's lackey, but you come to help me, who is a thorn in the Lord God's eyes... Aren't you afraid of revenge from the Lord God?"
"I'm afraid of it?" Lu Zichu seemed to have heard a joke, with a playful expression on his casual and arrogant face. "It's just a relationship of mutual benefit. I just pretend to be nice in front of the Lord God occasionally."
It seems that the relationship between the Lord God and his subordinates is not very good. They mock him openly and secretly, and disobey him in secret.
Yu Qirong concealed the smile in her eyes, but still had a smile on her face. She turned her head and looked at the door that Lu Zichu had blocked her from entering at the beginning.
Not to mention Lu Zichu, Yu Qirong felt unfamiliar. This mission actually took into account the lives of other players. In such a critical situation, why did they have to solve the Rubik's Cube first?
Maybe because of the professor, that dying face always appeared when he was figuring out how to make the next move.
If it weren't for this copy, the professor and Fang Qian would probably still be doing research somewhere.
Yu Qirong couldn't help but frown when he realized that he had such thoughts. Before Lu Zichu realized that he was distracted, he spoke first, "Let's go."
This door is different from other doors. It has no door handle. It's like just a piece of board made of special material standing here, making it difficult to find the way in.
Of course, most players, having barely managed to escape death, would not have the leisure to study this door in detail.
Except Yu Qirong.
The mortality rate of this S-level copy was frighteningly high. Excluding himself, Lu Zichu and Su Tang, three of his relatives, only two of the remaining eight people survived.
Even if Yu Qirong had not taken action, the whole group would have been wiped out.
This copy, which is like a meat grinder, seems to be collecting black fog in a method of exhausting all resources.
Yes, Yu Qirong noticed it. This instance seemed to be full of traps and biochemical weapons, without any black fog involved, but he keenly caught the black fog emanating from other players.
The concentration was far from the level that caused him pain, but it was indeed there. Especially when the player was extremely scared, sad, or angry, a long and misty black mist would float out, penetrate the ceiling, and go to an unknown place.
This main god, on the one hand, extracts the corresponding negative emotions from the players through high-difficulty copies, and on the other hand, traps NPCs and plunders them.
It takes both big and small.
Yu Qirong's eyes darkened. This Lord God really has some means.
"Go in, yeah." Lu Zichu held his chin up and thought for a while, and sincerely gave Yu Qirong a suggestion: "Think about it, if it were you, how would you design the door to open."
This statement was fresh and interesting. Yu Qirong actually thought about it carefully. After a moment, he found that he had no idea. However, in Lu Zichu's expectant eyes, he had to ask in an uncertain tone: "Just reach out and push it open?"
Lu Zichu's eyes lit up and he urged him, "Try it."
Yu Qirong hesitantly stretched out his right hand and slowly approached the door. He first touched the door lightly with his fingertips. After making sure there were no adverse reactions, he pressed his fingertips, knuckles, and palms against the door in that order.
The moment he put his whole hand over it, the door suddenly flashed with white light, brighter than the lights in the reception hall. A mechanical female voice came from the white device on the upper right side of the door: "The biometric code is correct, the door is open."
After saying that, Yu Qirong exerted a little force with his fingers and pushed the door open, revealing the scene inside.
There seems to be a large research institute inside. The huge ceiling is crystal clear and beautiful, and the beige floor lamps give the overall environment a comfortable atmosphere.
The various instruments inside were much more advanced than the culture bottles that appeared on the outside, and what was contained inside was not some green culture fluid, but beautiful and fragile unknown creatures.
The colorful colors and the almost transparent body caught Yu Qirong's attention almost immediately. He took two steps forward, and for a moment, he almost thought he was the master of this place.
Lu Zichu also noticed it, but he couldn't help but take two steps back. Something of this color looked poisonous. Seeing Yu Qirong trying to touch it, he couldn't help but remind her, "We don't know what it is yet, so don't move. Even through the glass, it's still a little scary."
After hearing what Lu Zichu said, Yu Qirong was about to stop, but he didn't expect the creature in the culture medium to come over, as if it recognized who he was, and rubbed the glass enthusiastically to express its excitement.
So Yu Qirong didn't rush to withdraw his hand, but watched the little thing dance for him through a layer of glass.
Lu Zichu couldn't help but come closer to take a look and asked suspiciously, "Does this thing know you?"
The creature in the bottle immediately hit the glass after he spoke, and several soft branches whipped the glass surface. Lu Zichu thought it was having a seizure. He reached out to pull Yu Qirong: "Look, look, it seems to be crazy, it's really not normal, we should stay away from it."
Yu Qirong keenly noticed his movements and lightly avoided Lu Zichu, still using one hand to tease the little creature inside, with a bit of disgust in his tone: "It said you are ugly and asked you to stay away from it."
"..." Lu Zichu looked at Yu Qirong, then looked at the unidentified creature that retreated a distance and then started dancing again. For a moment, he was not sure whether it was really said that or Yu Qirong deliberately made it up.
