Chapter 186: Sara's Song (XI)

Xiao Lan and Wang Taidi, carrying Wang Ke on their backs, search the Wall of Sacrifice for signs of Qi Ning.

They searched for the monster's body along the way. Qi Ning's skills and scalpel were so recognisable that whenever he moved his hand, the corpse left a very visible mark.

Within minutes, the body of the first miserable monster appeared.

The corpse took on an eerie green colour with the appearance of having been dissolved a few times.

The monster's limbs were neatly cut off, and the sections were so neat that you can imagine the crispness of Qi Ning's strikes.

Xiao Lan looked at the corpse and suddenly felt sympathy: "I didn't think Qi Ning's skills would be so powerful against such an immortal thing."

Wang Taidi also said, "Guess if Qi Ning is having a good time now?"

Xiao Lan thought about it, Qi Ning should be happy to finally let go of the fun of dismembering monsters ......?

Why does it sound like their little buddy is a pervert?

The monster's corpse acted as a signpost, getting them all the way to Qi Ning's location.

On the way, some monsters also burrowed out of the wall of sacrifice, but they did not make the slightest splash with the combined efforts of the two.

By far the most dangerous thing for them is the ubiquitous and unpredictable Sara's song.

Soon they heard the commotion of battle not far away.

Around Qi Ning lie the bodies of several monsters.

He was swinging a slash across and disembowelling a monster that intended to sneak up on him.

The wound was very sharp, almost a perfect straight line from end to end, showing off his exquisite anatomical skills.

The monster fell to the ground, twitched twice and stopped moving.

Qi Ning put away his knife and looked at the corpses on the ground with some regret, "It's a shame there wasn't enough time for me to even dissect you all ......"

At that moment, Xiao Lan and Wang Taidi showed up.

Qi Ning turned her head and saw Wang Ke, who was being carried on Wang Taidi's back: "You've found him?"

Wang Taidi nodded: "Yes, but he's not in great shape."

Qi Ning said, "Let me see."

Wang Taidi found a place to put Wang Ke down.

Wang Ke is as pale and thin as before, and his breathing is so weak that he seems to be about to die.

Qi Ning pulled out a black leather case from the storage space, which was full of various styles of rather vintage medical equipment.

It is probably one of the man's distinctive hobbies that he prefers to use a suitcase when he obviously has storage space.

Qi Ning gave Wang Ke a brief check-up.

After a few moments, Qi Ning withdrew his hand, his tone unsteady: "Not dead."

Wang Taidi was still waiting for the following, only to find that it was missing from the back.

Wang Taidi has a small question mark: "That's it? That's a perfunctory conclusion, Dr. Qi ......"

Qi Ning put away his tools: "You won't understand the terminology anyway, but the simple fact is that Wang Ke is weak and physically decrepit, but at least he has the body of an advanced player, so even if he is beaten up by ordinary people, he won't die."

Qi Ning reached out and nudged Wang Ke's neck, "I used some virus to give him an emergency treatment, it will make him recover faster and he will wake up in no time, just don't use him as a shield after that."

Wang Taidi stumbles a bit: "Sick sick virus ......?"

Qi Ning turned his head to look at him, "A virus used properly can also-"

Just then, a crack suddenly appeared in the space not far from a few people.

A figure just stepped out of nowhere.

He was dressed in a black tuxedo with exquisitely styled accessories, as if he had just stepped out of a party.

The man looked at Xiao Lan and gave them a small nod, "Sorry to interrupt, but could you please hand me the guy you're holding?"

Look at his swimming stance and this ability to seemingly move through the playground at will.

The faces of the three men opposite could not help but look heavy.

The man is - the indentured player.

Xiao Lan's last encounter with a contracted player is still engraved in his mind.

It was not a pleasant meeting, and the rough and tumble style of the contracted players, and their disregard for the lives of other players, made one wary.

"Introduce myself, my name is Zhu Zhiyi and as you may have guessed I am an indentured player." Zhu Zhiyi smiled a little, "I just got an urgent mission about some guy who failed in Sara's Song but got out of the Wall of Sacrifice, looks like you guys did it, right?"

Xiao Lan A few people didn't say anything, they were just on guard.

Zhu Zhiyi said, "A failure is a failure, is there any need for such a person to be saved? Well, hand him over quickly, I don't have a penchant for hunting."

Wang Taidi frowned and blocked Wang Ke with his body, as if ready to strike.

Xiao Lan whispered, "You go, I'll stop you."

Wang Taidi looked at Xiao Lan for a moment. The Stone of Forgiveness of Sins could only be used in the Forest of Conversion and they had to take Wang Ke out of the interior of the Wall of Sacrifice to do so.

The safest thing for Wang Ke is to get out of here first, of course, but leaving Xiao Lan to face the contracted players alone ......

Xiao Lan had already taken out the [Bone of Disobedience], "Leave first."

When Xiao Lan stepped forward to stop him, Wang Taidi took a deep breath, picked up Wang Ke and Qi Ning and ran backwards together.

"You take care!" Wang Taidi's voice came from afar.

"I know." Xiao Lan replied as he stared at the man in front of him.

"Oh, that's very courageous." Zhu Zhiyi smiled, "May I ask what your name is?"

Xiao Lan was wary of this somewhat odd question and did not answer.

Zhu Zhiyi saw this and the smile on his face faded slightly: "Why do senior players always think they have the ability to challenge the pact? You don't know anything about pacts, do you?"

Then he lifted his hand and a breeze blew towards Xiao Lan.

The gust of wind was light and did not seem to have the slightest destructive power.

But Xiao Lan doesn't dare underestimate an indentured player and dodges out of the way with a side-step.

The breeze brushed his side and nothing happened.

Xiao Lan was puzzled when he heard the voice of the person opposite him, "Oh, Xiao Lan? That's a nice name."

Zhu Zhiyi smiled and applauded.

Xiao Lan clenched the weapon in his hand with a little force, Zhu Zhiyi had used some means to get his name.

What did he acquire his name for?

Is it a convenient name out of courtesy?

But another feeling told him that the indentured player would not do such a boring thing.

Although Zhu Zhiyi looks polite, there is no difference in his bones from the previous guy with the baseball bat.

He must, then, have had some purpose in acquiring his name.

Xiao Lan, without further delay, swung his sword and attacked first.

The blackened blade was like a black gust of wind that struck Zhu Zhiyi's vitals.

Zhu Zhiyi didn't have to blink, a smile on the corner of his mouth, " Xiao Lan, you can't cut me at all."

At the end of the sentence, the attack, which was aimed at his vitals, just grazed Zhu Zhiyi's side.

Xiao Lan backhanded two more slashes, both of which failed to hit.

His heart sank, this guy's skills are so weird ......

It seems to be a spirit of speech similar to Wang Taidi.

And, as an indentured player, his skills must be far less restricted than Wang Taidi's.

Trouble.

Zhu Zhiyi laughed, "Don't bother, senior players can't beat the contract, what you can't do is easy when you become a contracted player, get out of my way and don't hold me up."

Xiao Lan's face was indifferent despite the tricky feeling in his heart, "Oh, I wouldn't dare eat shit."

Zhu Zhiyi's smile falters slightly: "......"

Where did this guy come from, with such a wild way of talking?

Zhu Zhiyi's face sank, "If you seek your own death, don't blame me."

--

Wang Taidi carries Wang Ke on his back and Qi Ning along.

Suddenly, his footsteps stopped.

Qi Ning also stopped and asked, "What's wrong?"

Wang Taidi gritted her teeth, "Sorry, I have to go back, can my brother please ......"

Qi Ning looked at him and did not speak for a moment.

It is difficult to tell whether he is surprised, hesitant, or just watching with interest.

After only a few moments, Qi Ning spoke up, in a very calm tone: "Leave it to me."

With that, he reached over Wang Taidi's shoulder and picked up Wang Ke, while saying to Wang Taidi, "Be careful not to die."

Wang Taidi nodded, "Please."

Watch Wang Taidi's back disappear in the distance.

Qi Ning picked up Wang Ke on his back and continued on, the two figures quickly moving away, looking for a weak spot where the wall of sacrifice could easily break out.

After a while, Wang Ke opened his eyes.

He found himself beside someone else who had changed again, but he could not see the other man's face, only a blackness.

Wang Ke muttered, "Am I ...... dead?"

Death was merciful to dream of his brother coming to his rescue before he died.

Ahead Qi Ning's voice came with the usual sense of breathlessness, "Hey, that's rude, I'm a doctor not the Grim Reaper."

Although most of the time he does pretty much the same job as Death, and maybe even a little more efficiently.

But, he really is a doctor, the kind who is certified.

Wang Ke just reacted to the fact that the person carrying her was Qi Ning: "...... Sorry."

He reluctantly turned his head to look around, but there was no sign of Xiao Lan or his brother.

Wang Ke asked, "What about them?"

Qi Ning said, "Your brother and Xiao Lan went after the break, Fei Luo was nowhere to be seen, probably got separated."

Wang Ke was a little confused, "What happened to ...... after the break?"

Qi Ning: "Getting you out alerted the pact players, they went to stop the men, I'll take you and retreat first."

"The deed!" Wang Ke's hand couldn't help but grasp tighter.

On the one hand, there was shock at having alerted the indentured players, on the other, concern for the safety of his brother and Xiao Lan, and some guilt that he had dragged them into danger.

Qi Ning noticed his concern and gave Wang Ke a rare reassuring pat on the arm: "A patient should rest and recuperate, it's useless to worry about him in his current state. He's your brother, not your son, and always needs to be let go in order to grow up."

"Besides, neither Xiao Lan nor your brother are weak, and it's not like they'd lose against the deed."

Wang Ke looked at his weak hands and couldn't help but smile bitterly, "You're right ......"

It was useless for him to worry now, and it would have been better for everyone if he had left Sara's Song earlier, instead of worrying about it.

Suddenly, Wang Ke noticed that his recovery seemed a little unusual: "Why is my body ...... recovering so fast?"

Qi Ning's tone was normal, "Oh, I got you a little virus to stimulate your cells to repair your body quickly, don't worry, it shouldn't be overdone."

Wang Ke caught a subtle word: "Should? What happens when you overdose ......?"

Qi Ning thought for a moment, "You've seen Resident Evil, right? That's pretty much it."

Wang Ke: "......"

Qi Ning added: "I'll adjust immediately if I accidentally overdose."

Wang Ke: "......"

Qi Ning: "Can you please trust your only primary care physician at the moment?"

Wang Ke: "......"

Can you not trust yourself to have no points?

Is there really nothing wrong with having an anatomy enthusiast, wanted criminal hunting fanatic, and virus savant as one's primary care physician?

Wang Ke is suddenly worried about the chances of dying from medical malpractice.

--

Xiao Lan and Zhu Zhiyi are at a standstill.

Zhu Zhiyi was as quick as the wind, and with his Spirit of Speech, he was as good as a cheat, making it impossible for Xiao Lan to attack him for a while.

At this point Xiao Lan has turned on his skill, with the ability Space Shift.

Zhu Zhiyi's speed was so fast that it was hard to catch up even with his acceleration skill on.

Xiao Lan's silhouette is constantly moving around, dodging his opponent's attacks while trying to catch his weaknesses.

Xiao Lan was looking for a chance to use the [Mouth] ban to silence him.

But this thing looks like a duct tape and has to be attached to the other person to be used.

Zhu Zhiyi, however, kept a deft distance from him, making it difficult to get close.

Zhu Zhiyi raises his hand and a gust of wind strikes towards Xiao Lan.

If you look closely, the wind is interspersed with thin, feather-like blades.

This is the weapon he uses, and it looks very light but does a lot of damage, narrowly missing Xiao Lan's vitals on several occasions.

Sensing the oncoming wind, Xiao Lan disappeared instantly into place, letting the wind-borne attack fall short.

After several exchanges, Xiao Lan also realised that Zhu Zhiyi's skill should be wind.

He can use the wind to attack and sense, which is why he is so fast and his dodges are incredibly swift.

But one does not possess two skills, and the indentured player should be no exception; in all probability, his speech ability is a prop.

Xiao Lan watches Zhu Zhiyi as he dodges.

Soon he saw a Little Xiao microphone on the other man's lapel, which was black and almost blended in with the clothes.

This microphone lights up with a Little Hong dot whenever Zhu Zhiyi wants to use his psychic powers.

After a few times, he found that each time the spirit of speech took effect, it took about 3 minutes.

After three minutes Zhu Zhiyi was able to use it again, but each time he spoke something different, not knowing whether he did not want to use a duplicate spirit of speech or whether the same spirit of speech could only take effect once.

The three minutes are about to expire.

Xiao Lan seized the opportunity to speak and dodged in front of Zhu Zhiyi, the tip of his knife swiftly swung towards the microphone on his chest.

With the resolution of the speech ability, Zhu Zhiyi's battle power will be cut by at least 30%.

However, as Zhu Zhiyi had said in the previous three minutes " Xiao Lan must keep a distance of 1 cm from him".

The tip of the knife could only slice through in vain, without hurting the microphone a bit.

"Snort-" Zhu Zhiyi gave a soft laugh.

Xiao Lan saw that something was wrong and his figure instantly disappeared from the spot.

In the next instant, countless sharp feathers were lodged in his original position, and if he had been slower, he would probably have turned into a feathered bird-man.

Three minutes are up.

Zhu Zhiyi spoke again, " Xiao Lan was subjected to ten times more gravity than before."

As soon as the words left his mouth, Xiao Lan almost fell on his face.

He felt his body instantly become so heavy that even lifting his sword was much harder.

Zhu Zhiyi has seized this momentary opportunity to attack again, and Xiao Lan has no choice but to enter space again to dodge.

Seeing Xiao Lan's figure disappear again, Zhu Zhiyi was not worried at all: " Xiao Lan, if you don't come out, I'll go and find them ......"

In an instant, his silhouette floated out as far as the wind.

Xiao Lan had to show himself and swung his sword to stop him in his tracks.

However, the tenfold gravity affected his movements, making him slightly slower in his blade striking movements.

Zhu Zhiyi dodged easily as the feather-thin blade slashed at his neck.

Xiao Lan swerved his body to avoid the danger, but a cut was made on his neck.

Just then, Wang Taidi's voice arrived: "Xiao Lan is not subjected to any change in gravity!"

With Wang Taidi's words, Xiao Lan felt a lightness around her body, and the gravity that had previously been a heavy shackle disappeared in an instant.

He turned back in surprise, "What brings you here?"

Wang Taidi laughs: "My brother wouldn't allow me to leave my teammates behind and run for my life."

On the other hand, Zhu Zhiyi was secretly alarmed.

What's the deal with this new kid on the block?

The boy's ability actually restrained the effects of his own props, meaning that in the judgment of the Advent World, the other man's skill level was higher than his props.

Before he could finish his thought, Xiao Lan had disappeared once more into the same place.

In the next instant, the blackened blade attacked Zhu Zhiyi's vitals from a tricky angle.

Zhu Zhiyi dodged and swiftly cut past the blade, narrowly missing it.

Xiao Lan smiled, "Isn't it great to be able to use skills and speech spirits at the same time?"

At the same time, the blade in his hand continued to strike at Zhu Zhiyi, and without the hindrance of the spirits of speech, Xiao Lan now felt that every swing he made was as smooth as it could be.

Zhu Zhiyi had to wrestle with him.

Although without the aid of the Spirit of Speech effect, his blistering speed is not to be underestimated.

The two men attacked and defended quickly, both adding to each other's wounds.

Wang Taidi looked at the man who was fighting a short distance away with only two stumps left, and honestly did not join the fray.

A hard fight at this speed is not his strong point, so it's better not to go in and add to the mess, in case he gets hit by one of his own.

In a dizzying engagement, the next three minutes came again.

Zhu Zhiyi just wants to make it quick: " Any damage Xiao Lan takes becomes tenfold."

In an instant, a feather slashed across Xiao Lan's arm, causing what would have been a long, thin cut, but now the wound instantly widened and deepened as if it had been struck by a sword.

Wang Taidi tries to restrain Zhu Zhiyi: " Xiao Lan will not be hurt in any way ...... cough ......"

His voice lurched and a surge of air and blood came up.

Several uses of his skills at no cost have left his body unable to cope with the conditions it is now in.

Zhu Zhiyi's attacks continue in quick succession, trying to take advantage of this good opportunity to kill Xiao Lan.

Wang Taidi had an idea: "Any damage that doesn't kill Xiao Lan will make him stronger."

This is the effect of Wang Ke's skill, which has been used countless times to fight back and bring his brother out of the woodwork.

In this moment, in Wang Taidi's eyes, Xiao Lan's fighting figure overlaps with that of her brother.

Although a great deal higher.

Xiao Lan felt his knife go faster, as if his body was filled with some kind of power.

Every wound on his body seemed to be a source of strength at that moment, a constant source of power for him, the berserker turned out to be this kind of feeling!

Fighting with assistance is really good!

It is as if one person has two skills at the same time.

The blackened blade swooped down on Zhu Zhiyi as if it were a fierce wind.

Zhu Zhiyi had been fighting Xiao Lan with his speed, but now the pressure on him had suddenly increased, and the damage he inflicted on Xiao Lan was doubled back on him.

The situation flipped in a flash.

Xiao Lan's attacks continued to fall, almost forcing Zhu Zhiyi to the brink.

Zhu Zhiyi didn't think that he would one day be so screwed by two high-level players.

His eyes snapped and the gale around him fiercely rose.

At the same time, a hand reaches out and toggles the microphone, seemingly quietly switching it under some hidden mode.

Zhu Zhiyi's lips were opening and closing rapidly, and the words that came out were indeed incomprehensible to Xiao Lan and the others, and it was clear that he was holding back a big move.

Xiao Lan took one look at it and felt bad.

It would have taken him and Wang Taidi to combine their efforts to overpower this man in his unopened form alone.

It would have been better if he had waited until his big move was ready.

Xiao Lan accelerates the burning of the poverty value, doubling the speed at which he can transfer himself through space.

The next moment he was in front of Zhu Zhiyi.

Then, he glued [Mouthpiece] on his opponent's face in a somewhat puzzled look.

The words from Zhu Zhiyi's mouth instantly changed to, "口口口......口口......口口口"

The original content of the words all but disappeared, turning into something unknowable.

He was alarmed and a bad feeling came over him.

Almost as soon as this thought came to him, Zhu Zhiyi felt a chill in his chest.

A black blade just plunged straight into his chest, pinning him all the way to the wall of sacrifice.

The knife seemed to have some strange power on it, making him feel like his blood and life force were being absorbed by the other side.

"Mouth ......" he tried to speak, to warn these senior players not to go against the pact.

But the effect of the props was still there, making the whole of what came out of his mouth indescribable.

The wall of sacrifice was attracted by the blood and the otherwise quiet roots began to stir.

They seemed to be able to tell who was the better target, and swarmed in Zhu Zhiyi's direction, rushing towards his wounds, or targeting his body if they couldn't reach them.

Soon, Zhu Zhiyi is entangled in the rhizomes.

These roots, which had been rippled in the battle between the two men earlier and almost all carried wounds, were now craving ample flesh and blood to replenish their losses, and they rooted themselves greedily to Zhu Zhiyi's body, frantically feeding on his flesh and blood.

The light in Zhu Zhiyi's eyes fades.

The blood-coloured roots partake of the flesh and blood in his body even more recklessly, as if in an orgy.

Wang Taidi looked staggered: "The contracted players are sort of on the descent world side, right, how ...... do they even spare their own people?"

Xiao Lan says: "Who is one of its own to the Advent world?"

Watching Zhu Zhiyi's body being quickly swallowed by the wall of sacrifice, Wang Taidi said, "Let's go, find Fei Luo and leave together."

Instead Xiao Lan said, "You go first, I'll go and meet up with Fei Luo. You'd better get out of the game and get out of the Advent world and back to reality as soon as possible."

He then left Wang Taidi his real-life contact details.

Wang Taidi was surprised: "Just the two of you? What are you going to do?"

Xiao Lan reached out and gestured, "One big move."

Wang Taidi asks, "How big is it?"

Xiao Lan smiles: "Not sure yet, with a bit of luck we might be able to turn the Advent world upside down."

Wang Taidi's furry head is filled with confusion: "......?"

He was tempted to ask his little friend how many dishes he had ordered and how much he was drinking.

But Xiao Lan doesn't look like he's lying, nor does he look like he's going crazy from Sara's singing.

Wang Taidi left full of doubts.

Luo's contact also arrived just in time.

[I'm coming, sir]
