Chapter 230 of "Kaidan Game Train: Abide Rule or Die!" opens revealing intense scenes: Chapter 230: Chapter 230 Who is the Cannibal?If the task was submitted, the difficulty of... Keep reading!
Chapter 230: Chapter 230 Who is the Cannibal?If the task was submitted, the difficulty of subsequent tasks would increase, but without submitting the task, the second one couldnât be seen.
It was almost impossible to get the second task from the player "Hidden One" ... Xu Huo tapped the frame a few times with his fingers and chose to submit the task.
After the game issued the notification, the second task was unlocked at the same time.
If the found counterfeit canât be used a second time, then to restore an original, another counterfeit must be found.
But to create a counterfeit, a player was needed.
In the darkness, Xu Huo turned towards the couch.
On the couch, Ni Tian, who was facing away from him, wasnât asleep. She tried to calm her breathing, clutching her trembling hands tightly, and only when that prickling gaze moved away did she let out a silent sigh of relief.
By the time it was almost time to switch on the lights the next day, the gallery had quieted down. The moment it was about seven oâclock, Ni Tian immediately flipped up and walked towards the door.
"There are at most six fake paintings," Xu Huo said from behind her.
Ni Tianâs movement to open the door paused, and she turned around with a forced smile, "Brother Xu, are you serious?"
"Would I lie to you, being as kind as I am?" Xu Huo moved his arms, "I didnât want you to go out and talk nonsense, otherwise, I could have made a move last night."
Ni Tian thought about it and with blinking eyes said, "Brother Xu, then can you tell me what you want? Anything will do, oh!"
"This time, I promise Iâm sincere. If youâre not assured, you can tie me up too."
Xu Huo ignored her winking, "Cut it out."
She opened the door and as she did, Gao Jun happened to walk by the neighboring door, greeting her.
The reticent Gao Jun nodded with a hint of surprise.
At this time, the other players had already gathered in the left corridor.
"The two rooms inside are broken through. Big Bear and Pan Siming are missing," Li Weiran said with a grave face.
"What exactly is the situation?" Xie Man asked, "Wasnât it supposed to be Fan Shijiâs turn last night?"
"Didnât you see? Big Bear definitely lied. Heâs the one who tore the portrait," Fan Shiji said. "Last night I was ready to fight to the death. I didnât expect... tsk tsk!"
"But why did Big Bear survive the day before yesterday, and yet Deng Yu disappeared?" Xie Man couldnât help but ask.
"Perhaps he had some powerful item that only blocked the first attack but not the second," the brooding man said.
"So does that mean Deng Yu and Pan Siming took the hit for someone else, that Big Bear is really despicable!" You Huanhuan said indignantly.
Xu Huo glanced at her, then suddenly said, "Do you smell blood?"
The rest of the players turned to look at him, and You Huanhuan pointed at the scattered blood spots on the corridor, "It must be from when Big Bear and Pan Siming were injured while escaping."
The brooding man stared at her before asking, "Did you leave your room last night?"
You Huanhuan was dumbfounded, "You suspect me of killing them?"
"Itâs not about suspecting you of murder," Li Weiran said, "but about confirming who left their room last night. Here, two people completed the first task."
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the players immediately turned cold, eyeing the people around them with suspicion, trying to discern any clues.
"Itâs possible that Big Bear and Pan Siming have cleared the game," Gao Jun said. "They were in the exhibition hall when the game notification came through yesterday."
"If it were you, would you choose to escape?" Li Weiran stared at him intently.
"Why wouldnât I?" Gao Jun retorted, "Is it strange to choose to leave the instance when being chased by monsters?"
Li Weiran paused, then said no more.
"Lu Gang and I havenât left the room," You Huanhuan picked up on the prior question and reached out to tug at Lu Gangâs clothes, but before she could touch him, he brushed her off and then charged at both the gloomy man and Li Weiran, pushing them to the ground with hands on their shoulders!
"Donât hit people!" You Huanhuan screamed in alarm.
The gloomy man and Li Weiran reacted in time, shedding the weight from their shoulders on either side and kicking Lu Gang away, putting distance between them; simultaneously, the former produced a folding fan in hand, and the latter had a large pair of scissors the height of a person strapped to his back!
The three formed a standoff, and Xu Huo and the others had already made room.
"Lu Gang, donât hit people, theyâre not targeting us, they just want to understand how the instance works!" You Huanhuan threw herself at the tall man, embracing him, and although Lu Gang still clenched his fists, he restrained himself from further action.
The gloomy man scoffed, "It seems no one is willing to tell the truth, so letâs assume Big Bear and Pan Siming have left the instance. Everyone should look for their own clues!"
After saying this, he headed straight for the exhibition hall, and Li Weiran, after glancing at Fan Shiji, followed suit.
"Why are you looking at me? I didnât leave the room," Fan Shiji muttered. "Itâs too dangerous outside; only a fool would go out!"
Though he complained, he said to the remaining players with a pained expression: "Saving one life is more meritorious than building a seven-story pagoda, if anyone knows something, whispering it to me would be fine!"
Xu Huo fiddled with a lighter but didnât light a cigarette.
Twelve players, and if six players clear the game, that would require six fake paintings, which means a maximum of six people could have completed the first level. The next day, to restore the genuine pieces, the same number of players would be needed.
Under such circumstances, no one would likely volunteer how to clear the game.
He patted him on the shoulder helplessly, "Donât be discouraged, thereâs still one more day."
"Sorry, we canât help either," You Huanhuan said, guilt on her face.
Xie Man walked by her, "Your hand is swollen."
You Huanhuan held her hand and smiled shyly, "Thank you for caring."
Xu Huo glanced at the trio with varied expressions and then looked over at the aloof Gao Jun. Under Ni Tianâs urging, he proceeded into the exhibition hall.
Thereâs no truth in their mouths.
Yesterday, when Big Bear and Pan Siming were attacked, there was a sound of a door opening and closing in the left corridor. Judging from the outcome, Pan Siming did not enter an empty room, and Fan Shiji, to avoid being trapped to death, had not locked his door. At the time, the only ones with the opportunity were You Huanhuan and Lu Gang.
Of course, itâs also possible that it was a false alarm, and Pan Siming had fled into the exhibition hall.
There could be two conclusions: either Pan Siming successfully cleared the instance and left, or he entered into one of the paintings.
The statue monster wasnât too agile; with so many pillars in the exhibition hall, it wasnât hard to hide. Pan Siming wasnât the monsterâs primary target, and if he had obtained the painting, leaving the instance wouldnât have been the optimal choice.
Additionally, last night Gao Jun had deliberately left his door ajar before the lights out, and judging from the timing he passed by his own door, it was very close to the first game notification.
So Xu Huo tended to believe that Pan Siming had either entered one of the paintings or had been killed.
If the former, there would still be a ready-made fake painting in the exhibition hall; if the latter, Pan Simingâs body might be hidden in some corner of the art gallery.
Naturally, that unmistakable stench of blood was also an important factor.
Avoiding the eyes of the others, he used his phone to inform Ni Tian, "Go to the room on the left and see if thereâs a body."
