Chapter 82 Death Countdown (8)



Louis drove a small flying car that could seat four people. After He Yu and Zhen Xing got in, Eugene also followed in the back seat, leaving only one seat left.

"Young Master He..." Louis smiled and prepared to come in.

A sturdy arm was across in front of him, with strong muscles as hard as steel, directly blocking his movement to enter.

Louis was stunned and turned his head to look over.

Wan Renzhan had a blank expression on his face: "I'm a bodyguard, I want to follow the young master."

Louis: "..."

He silently stepped aside.

Wan Renzhan took a long step, entered the only remaining seat, sat there with peace of mind, and left Louis outside.

——He is really the young master of a big family, even his subordinates have such a domineering temper.

Louis was in a complicated mood, but he smiled: "Mr. He, the flying car will take you to my residence. I will sit in the car behind and follow you all the time."

He Yu nodded.

Zhenxing closed the car door and the car drove forward immediately.

The Federation's driverless technology is very advanced, and flying cars have a history of thousands of years. They are very mature, stable, fast, and safe. There have almost never been any accidents involving automatic flying cars. It is indeed a technology that Blue Star needs to learn.

He Yu tapped his fingers on his knees: "Eugene, block all surveillance cameras in the car."

There must be cameras in the flying car, even if they are very small or even invisible, but they will definitely be there.

The owner can turn it off directly, but non-owners... must think of other ways.

Eugene: “???”

His eyes widened, as if conveying with his eyes - you are actually using me as a shield now?

His mechanical body leaned forward, with his head placed in the gap in the middle, looking at He Yu in disbelief.

He Yu tilted his head, his profile very innocent: "Isn't this the case that those who are capable should do more work, and besides, we don't have a shield now, do you want our next discussion to be heard by others?"

Zhen Xing nodded, and Wan Renzhan also nodded, and agreed together.

Eugene: "..." Fuck.

He gritted his teeth in anger, but in the end, he still took off his head.

- Using himself as a machine is getting more and more convenient.

"Okay, shielded." After shaking the drum for a while, Eugene hugged his head, the mechanical voice was emotionless, and it was obvious that he was still angry.

However, the remaining three were not good at coaxing him.

Wanrenzhan stared at Zhenxing in the front row: "Why are you here? How do you know that I'm the butler?"

Zhenxing looked back at him and said calmly: "I don't know."

Wanrenzhan: "?"

Eugene held his head with both hands, and the mouth on his head opened and closed: "He really didn't know. When he came on stage, he just called me Young Master. We introduced him to the identity of the butler."

However, Zhenxing then went with the flow and confirmed his identity as the "butler". Wanrenzhan

asked again: "Then how did you know He Yu? How did you find him?"

Zhenxing: "It's all thanks to Lin. He was asking around for information. I noticed him and followed him here, and..."

He looked at Heyu: "Young Master He's name has spread throughout the town. He is a domineering and arrogant young master."

Heyu didn't feel guilty at all, and his expression was still very calm.

Zhenxing looked at him, slightly absent-minded.

Eugene ruffled his silver hair with his hands, his eyes fixed on Zhenxing: "Then why did you come to join us? We can fight in this copy."

He was the first one to come, with the purpose of killing Heyu.

Of course, he cooperated with Heyu only after he failed in the end. Not to mention Wanrenzhan, that idiot, why did Zhenxing dare to come after knowing that he and Heyu have been coexisting peacefully?

- Isn't he afraid that they will join forces to kill him?

Zhenxing was looking at Heyu in a daze. He had noticed before that the countdown above Heyu's head should be about the same as his own, the highest among the four.

Eugene: 76

Wanrenzhan: 85

So why did they dare to cooperate with Heyu? Aren't they afraid that Heyu will drag the countdown back to zero during this process?

Besides, weren't the two of them going to kill He Yu?

Why did they cooperate with him instead?

Zhen Xing didn't want to eliminate He Yu, he was just simply curious - what did He Yu do again?

"Hey, what are you thinking about?" Eugene raised his hand and knocked on him.

Then, he glanced at the top of Zhen Xing's head imperceptibly, with a hint of jealousy in the depths of his eyes.

- Damn, the countdown is so much longer than his, he doesn't accept it!

Zhen Xing came back to his senses, his expression serious: "Because, I don't think I can complete this copy alone. Since you have already cooperated, and the momentum is so big, you must have encountered difficulties, right? Do you mind adding me?"

Eugene and Wanrenzhan didn't speak.

He Yu spread his hands: "I don't mind. I never mind how many people get out of a copy alive. As long as no one dies in the copy, everyone can advance."

Wanrenzhan: "..."

He had a blank expression: "You tricked us all out in the last round."

Thinking of this, his face darkened.

He Yu blinked: "There is no way, I have to live. Who let you and I be assigned to the same team, and I got the undercover identity? Look, Zhenxing and Eugene got out safely, didn't they?" Wanrenzhan

: "..."

Eugene raised his mechanical arm to stop Wanrenzhan from pestering him: "Stop, don't mention the past. We are now an alliance, so let's share information."

Hearing this, He Yu looked straight at Zhenxing: "How are you sure that one person can't complete it? What clues did you find?"

The remaining two also looked at Zhenxing fiercely.

The town star was helpless: "Okay, I'll tell you."

His expression became serious and his voice was very serious; "Do you know a legend about the ghost town?"

The three shook their heads.

Zhenxing took a deep breath: "This is a very secret legend. I got it from a side quest. The old man said that not many people probably remember this legend now. Goblin Town has many, many years of history, but once upon a time, Goblin Town was very poor. The 20,000 people living in the town lived a very difficult life. It was not until three hundred years ago that many ghosts suddenly appeared in Goblin Town, and the town became more and more prosperous..."

Eugene: "I know this. A side quest we did also mentioned that Goblin Town has a permanent population of 20,000, and ghosts began to appear in large numbers three hundred years ago."

He Yu frowned slightly and suddenly asked: "Three hundred years ago, there were only 20,000 people in Goblin Town?"

Everyone: "!!!"

The three of them stared and suddenly felt a chill down their spines.

This is a point that is easily overlooked. Three hundred years ago, this town had 20,000 residents, and now it still has 20,000 residents. It seems that everything is the same, and there is no problem.

But the sameness itself is a problem!!

Three hundred years ago, the ghost town was poor and the people were struggling.

Three hundred years later, this year, the ghost town has become bustling and wealthy, but the number of people in the local houses is exactly the same?

- It's terrifying to think about it carefully.

Zhenxing frowned and let out a long sigh: "Let me continue to tell you the legend I heard. Three hundred years ago, there were suddenly many ghosts in the Ghost Town. Louis took over the Ghost Town. He was a very thoughtful person. He immediately took ghosts as the theme and created tourist attractions, which made the Ghost Town better and better. And the Ghost Town has always been very famous because of its unique ghosts."

"I think you have all discovered that the ghosts here are not just a group of black shadows. They can change into many shapes, especially - into humans."

The three nodded.

He Yu and Wan Renzhan had already seen it, and Eugene had also seen it at Louis' place.

Zhenxing continued: "Do you know the first human-shaped ghost?"

Without waiting for the three to answer, he said directly: "The first human-shaped ghost appeared three hundred years ago! According to legend, three hundred years ago, there was a young man in the poor and backward ghost town. His name was Li. Li was an orphan. No one knew how he appeared in the ghost town. Because he had no parents to protect him, he was always bullied and often hungry in this ghost town."

"He lived to adulthood while being bullied. People in the ghost town thought he was weak and everyone could bully him, but they didn't expect that he had a high natural fighting ability, which was immediately revealed after he became an adult. He is a rare person. As time goes by, his fighting ability will continue to improve, and the improvement speed is very fast."

Wanrenzhan glared: "Is he as special as my idol?"

He Yu was puzzled: "Explain it."

Eugene: "Let me explain, Wanrenzhan is talking about Li Zhan, the first person to become a god in "Top Stream Talent Show". He is very rare. As time goes by, his fighting ability will continue to improve. People who can increase their power continuously, as if they are constantly drinking potions.

" He Yu: "Aren't you all able to increase?" Wan

Renzhan shook his head: "We need to exercise, and there is an upper limit. Basically, more than 200 is the limit. If we take some rare potions that increase our own combat power, we can only increase it a little. But Li Zhan's combat power will increase naturally even if he lies still. It seems that there is no upper limit. It is very, very unique."

Eugene clicked his tongue twice: "When setting up this copy, Zhan Shen must have been referenced."

He Yu heard this, touched his chin, nodded, and looked at Zhen Xing: "Continue."

Zhen Xing continued——

"Li's fighting power increased very quickly, and he was gifted. In this small town where the highest fighting power is only B level, he was very envied, especially by those residents who had bullied him."

"The mayor at that time had a child with very poor talent. Basically, he would stop at C level in his life and would not achieve anything. So, the mayor discussed with the residents in the town and wanted to transfer Li's talent to their children. If their children's talents improved, they might be able to take advantage of it. But if Li continued to become stronger, he would definitely take revenge on them."

Eugene couldn't wait to ask, "What did they do?"

Zhenxing took a deep breath, "They cut Li into slices alive and ate him."

Immediately, Eugene and Wanrenzhan took a breath.

For the first time, they were a little bit unable to face this ghost town. Although many of the people now were not the same people as before, they still felt uncomfortable.

He Yu remained expressionless, but his eyes were slightly gloomy. He said: "So the first humanoid ghost was Li?"

Zhenxing nodded: "Yes, after they ate Li, they did not get Li's talent. Everyone was very disappointed, but they felt at ease when they thought that no one would retaliate against them."

"But, they didn't expect that a ghost would appear in the town later. Moreover, the ghost looked like a human, just like Li who had been eaten by them. Li came to seek revenge."

Wanrenzhan asked, "Did he succeed?"

Zhenxing shook his head, "He killed the mayor's family. Before he could attack others, a passing SS-level master named Kan killed him. However, after Li's death, ghosts continued to appear in the ghost town, as if it had changed. Just like a magnetic field, many strange ghosts and monsters have been born. In addition, with the change of the new mayor Louis, the ghost town has become lively and prosperous. "

Wanrenzhan sneered: "They ate a person, but the town lived a rich life. It's really ironic."

Eugene's mechanical face was expressionless, and he analyzed calmly: "So, the ghosts are related to three hundred years ago. The new mayor Louis may know something. You want to contact the mayor, but don't want to make trouble?"

Zhenxing nodded.

Heyu pushed his glasses: "You are because of that SS-level master, right?"

Wanrenzhan was puzzled: "Why is it related to the SS-level master again?"

Of course, he remembered the legend told by Zhenxing. The one who killed the ghost Li was an SS-level master, but wasn't he just passing by?

It all happened three hundred years ago, why should we pay attention to it now?

He Yu looked at him: "Wan Renzhan, do you believe in coincidences? Such a poor ghost town, isolated, seldom visited, and just after the riot, an SS-level master 'passed by', hehe."

Wan Renzhan: "..."

He raised his chin: "Could it be that he was unlucky?"

Eugene was silent and didn't want to talk.

He Yu and Zhen Xing looked at each other, and they saw caution in each other's eyes.

——Zhen Xing sought cooperation because of that SS-level master. How terrifying is the SS-level master three hundred years ago now?

If that person really exists and is related to the biggest secret they want to find out.

Then, this is not something that one person can deal with, they must cooperate.

He Yu: "Eugene, what did you find out from Louis today?"

Eugene: "Louis is very smart. He kept talking to me, but he didn't show anything unusual. I didn't find anything when I was in his mansion today. His mansion is very old. It seems to be a continuation of the previous mayor's house, but it has been simply renovated."

Town Star: "It seems that we have to continue contacting him. We have limited time. If this meal doesn't give us any useful information, we must change our strategy."

Role-playing is good, and they can't immerse themselves in it.

He Yu nodded in agreement.

He looked out the window, the light outside the window shone on half of his face, half bright and half dark, and his eyes flickered slightly.

——Really, it's interesting.

【Bullet screen: "He Yu must have guessed something again!!"】

【Bullet screen: "But he won't say it. He won't say anything unless he's 80% sure."】

Only the audience could see He Yu's look. They scratched their heads but couldn't figure out anything.

The car was moving very fast. As soon as they finished talking, it stopped at the gate of the town lord's mansion.

The conversation was over, the jammer was no longer needed, Eugene put his head back, and muttered with a dark face: "You only know how to torture me. If I were not here, I don't know what you would do?"

He Yu raised his hand to help him adjust, and curled his lips: "Aren't you here?"

He didn't wait for Eugene to speak, and said: "Okay, adjust your facial expression, it's important to pass the test."

Eugene put his head back, moved it a few times, and then took a deep breath: "Okay, pass the test first."

Zhenxing got out of the car and opened the door.

He Yu's face immediately became arrogant, his chin slightly raised, and he got out of the car with a haughty look.

"Mr. He, please come this way!" Louis had also arrived, and hurriedly extended his hand to invite them to go inside the mansion.

The town lord's mansion was just as Eugene said. It looked very simple and not luxurious. In the wealthy ghost town, it was not eye-catching at all and had no momentum.

But Louis didn't think there was anything wrong. He didn't seem to care about these things.

He led Heyu and the three people into the restaurant.

The dining habits of the Federation for entertaining guests are very similar to those in ancient Blue Star. Each person has a small table in front of them, where they can eat, chat, and watch performances at the same time.

Heyu and Louis sat at the top, and the remaining three sat on the sides below.

"Pa pa!" Louis raised his hands and clapped.

Immediately, someone brought up plates and placed them on the tea tables for several people.

Next to them, all tableware such as knives, forks, towels, etc. were available.

Louis smiled and said, "I don't have anything good to offer here. I can only let you taste our local specialties. I specially asked the famous chef in the town to cook them. I hope the guests like them."

As soon as he finished speaking, the waiter beside him opened the lid.

Wan Renzhan was already hungry, holding a knife and fork, but when the lid was opened, he was slightly stunned.

He Yu was also stunned and pursed her lips.

——The special food of the ghost town is also ghosts.

——Cooked, young ghosts.
