What's wrong with being a salted fish?

Chapter 139 Don’t open your eyes in the middle of the night 14

The following day was exceptionally peaceful. It was the most idle day that Lin Zhuo had felt since he entered the dungeon.

Lin Zhuo thought it might be because he didn’t see anyone else except Wen Chuan that day.

Qiuyue usually has the face of a cold goddess, but in private she is a noisy and chattering person, and she pesters Lin Zhuo every day. This day was the first time she didn't come to disturb Lin Zhuo.

Not to mention Zhou An and Xiao Yuan. Including today, Xiao Yuan has been missing for two days.

Zhou An was trembling with fear every day during these two days. The only time Lin Zhuo saw him was at mealtimes. He tried for a long time during these two days and finally ate a little bit.

Fortunately, he did not win the prize that day. The food with added ingredients was in front of Qiuyue, and Qiuyue ate it all calmly, which made Zhou An panic for a while.

Lin Zhuo later complained that she was boring, but Qiuyue said she wanted to have some fun.

......

Lin Zhuo opened his eyes in bed. Today was already the fifth day.

That being said, time flies by pretty fast.

Lin Zhuo stretched out his hand to the side. The place next to him was very cold. It seemed that Wen Chuan had been away for some time.

Weird? Are you so anxious today? Lin Zhuo sat up from the bed and rubbed his eyes, wondering.

It doesn’t make sense that Wen Chuan wouldn’t wait for me?

Lin Zhuo thought so and yawned as he walked to the dressing mirror to tidy up his clothes.

After leaving the room, Lin Zhuo walked down the stairs to the restaurant downstairs.

It was dinner time, and Lin Zhuo saw no one else at the table except Qiuyue.

Wen Chuan is not here either? Where did he go?

Lin Zhuo pulled out a chair and sat down, holding his face and saying nothing.

0617 felt that he was a little depressed, so he secretly checked it, and then told Lin Zhuo that the special meal today was still in front of Qiuyue.

Lin Zhuo turned his head to glance at Qiuyue who was eating happily, and muttered "Oh" indifferently.

"What's wrong? Are you unhappy today?" Qiuyue was chewing a piece of lettuce in her mouth while talking to Lin Zhuo, with half of the leaf still outside. She didn't care about her image at all.

Lin Zhuo stirred the food on the plate with his hands, glanced at Wen Chuan's portion which was untouched beside him, and said, "It's nothing."

He didn’t even eat. Where did this person go?

Seeing this, Qiuyue smiled and said, "Looking for Wenchuan?"

Hearing this, Lin Zhuo immediately raised his eyes and glanced at her: "Did you see him? Where is he?"

"Oh, I don't remember whether I have seen it or not." Qiuyue began to play dumb.

"If I have it, I have it. If I don't have it, I don't have it. Why are you pretending?" Lin Zhuo sat up straight, speaking in a somewhat aggressive tone.

Qiuyue began to press her hands on her temples: "You are so fierce, I can't remember."

Suddenly, Qiuyue heard a sound of something flying past her ear.

Qiuyue held her head and looked at Lin Zhuo. Lin Zhuo had a dark look in his eyes and was twirling a cutlery knife in his hand, staring at her straight.

Qiuyue swallowed with a gulp, then turned her head to look. What had just flown over was a silver fork, and if it had been a little off, it would have pierced her ear.

This man! How could he not show any mercy to women?

"Still acting? I'd be happy to accompany you." Lin Zhuo said with a smile, holding a knife in his hand, eager to try.

Qiuyue quickly shook her head. Although she would not die, it would still hurt if she was stabbed!

"Okay, I've seen it." Qiuyue said helplessly.

"What about others?"

Qiuyue first lowered her head and continued eating, then replied: "I don't think you want to know."

What does that mean? Is Wen Chuan dead?!

Seeing Lin Zhuo suddenly silent and his expression becoming ugly, Qiuyue thought for a while and then said, "It's not as serious as you think."

Lin Zhuo frowned and said in a bad tone: "Just say it directly, don't beat around the bush."

Qiuyue looked at him seriously: "You should know that only one person can get out of this game, right?"

Lin Zhuo was stunned. He died very early and didn't pay attention to the number of people who passed the level.

"Ha, it seems you don't know." Qiuyue said happily, covering her mouth.

Qiuyue explained to Lin Zhuo that there are many players in the game, and many of them have outstanding abilities, but why are there only a few people leaving the game? It is not because the last copy is so difficult, but because of the number of people who have passed it.

Although everyone's last copy is different, the positioning is definitely S+ level. However, this does not mean that the copy is difficult, but it depends purely on one's own ability.

In order to escape, without the need for the dungeon BOSS to take action, players will try every means to kill each other, and may even end up with everyone being killed.

"Look, this instance is actually pretty simple, isn't it?" Qiuyue pointed at Lin Zhuo, "You actually already have evidence to identify Clay, don't you?"

Lin Zhuo was silent. Qiuyue was telling the truth. He was originally planning to go out with Wenchuan on the seventh day.

Clay, Qiuyue and the bloody creature behind this copy, their grudge with Xiao Yuan actually had nothing to do with him, and he had no intention of trying to help them.

"We all know that you find it troublesome and want to leave, right?" Qiuyue held her cheek and looked at Lin Zhuo.

“…” was guessed.

"You can go, but what about Wenchuan? Only one of you can go." Qiuyue lowered her eyes and used her other hand to hold the knife and scratch on the plate.

"Besides, Xiao Yuan is also going to leave. Can you beat him?"

Qiuyue stared at Lin Zhuo as she said this. This was the only spot, and of course the owner of this game was also included. He had to follow the rules he set himself.

"Oh, so what if I get out before Xiao Yuan? Are you willing to leave this god here? Aren't you afraid that he will turn the world upside down?" Lin Zhuo didn't believe that they would be willing to be alone with Xiao Yuan in a space.

Qiuyue shook her head, moved closer to Lin Zhuo, and whispered, "What we want is for him to stay. When he leaves his mortal body and returns to the divine throne, we will use his divine power to steal his authority and allow this space to gain true freedom."

Divine power? Lin Zhuo thought of the previous conflict between Clay and Xiao Yuan.

"Where is Wen Chuan?" Lin Zhuo took a deep breath. If possible, he didn't want to take such a risk.

"Dead, but not completely dead." Qiuyue didn't dare to breathe heavily when she said this, for fear that Lin Zhuo would stab her neck with the knife.

Lin Zhuo pinched his palm hard and took a deep breath to keep himself calm: "Speak clearly."

"We talked to Wen Chuan, and when he heard that only one person could leave the copy, he decisively gave this opportunity to you." Qiuyue put her hands in front of herself and advised Lin Zhuo to stay calm and not take action.

"He said he would stay with you until the end and would not feel at ease until he saw you complete the dungeon. We actually had no ill will, so we let him go after the chat." Seeing that Lin Zhuo seemed to be able to maintain his sanity, Qiuyue hastily added.

"but..."

"Can you get to the point?" Lin Zhuo stabbed the knife into the table with a clang.

"Xiao Yuan took action. He used a mechanism to stab Wen Chuan to death. Xiao Yuan's move was very neat. No one expected him to suddenly appear and deliver a fatal blow." Qiuyue said.

The corners of Lin Zhuo's eyes began to turn red. He looked at Qiuyue and asked, "What do you mean by not completely dead?"

"That person said that he would preserve Wen Chuan's body first. When this world is out of Xiao Yuan's control, he can bring Wen Chuan back to life."

Lin Zhuo said nothing, he knew there was no free lunch in the world.

Sure enough, Qiuyue continued, "The premise is that you have to help us."

"I understand." Lin Zhuo stared at the plate in a daze and nodded.

The restaurant fell silent for a moment. Qiuyue ate her food carefully, not daring to make any loud noises for fear of upsetting Lin Zhuo.

Suddenly, Lin Zhuo pulled out a chair and nodded to Qiuyue: "Excuse me for now."

Qiuyue looked at Lin Zhuo's hurried back and wondered: What is he going to do? Is he going to challenge Xiao Yuan?

Thinking of this, Qiuyue laughed and shook her head, feeling that her idea was a bit ridiculous.

Impossible, impossible, he didn't even know where Xiao Yuan was. Not to mention Lin Zhuo, none of them knew exactly where Xiao Yuan was.

......

"Host, what are you thinking about?" 0617 cautiously tested Lin Zhuo.

After leaving the restaurant, Lin Zhuo returned to his room. He sat on the edge of the bed, staring at the floor in a daze.

"Just a little thing." Lin Zhuo said as he opened the game system.

He still has a lot of points left, maybe he can get something he wants.

"I'm going to be a gambler." Lin Zhuo muttered softly.

Although he didn't have a comprehensive understanding of the game, he still knew a little about the props in the game.

Props are basically distributed by the system during copy settlement, and the probability of obtaining props in a copy is very small.

The only way to get props in the copy is to open the blind box.

Of course, this stuff depends on appearance.

Lin Zhuo thought that his luck was not amazing, but it was not too bad either. He took a deep breath and opened the blind box interface.

After he fired it, nothing happened. It was a piece of junk. Lin Zhuo didn't even read the introduction and threw it behind his mind.

He did it again and again, most of the time without looking closely, but he knew this was not what he wanted.

He didn't know how many times it was, but when his points were less than one tenth, a golden apple appeared in his hand.

【Good luck apple, eat it and your luck will improve for five minutes~ If you had a golden apple, which goddess would you give it to? 】

It’s so funny, I chose to eat it myself.

Lin Zhuo took a bite and found it was quite sweet.

Lin Zhuo was chewing the food while clicking "continue" when he suddenly felt something sink in his hand, and it turned out to be a golden scale.

Lin Zhuo's eyes lit up and he put the thing into his space. This was one of the things he wanted. It seemed that this apple was useful.

But what follows is still a pile of rubbish.

When the points were about to be cleared, Lin Zhuo finally waited for the second thing he wanted, but 0617 was taken back by Lin Zhuo before he could see clearly what it was.

"Okay, let's go out." Lin Zhuo stood up and patted his legs.

"Where are we going?" 0617 wondered.

Lin Zhuo didn't say anything, he just went out leisurely.

......

"You are so brave!" Clay said this while still lying weakly on the bed.

He still had some of Xiao Yuan's divine power in his body, and he was using his own body to maintain it.

"Just tell me whether you want to do it or not. It would be more comfortable to do all of it rather than just a small part of it, right?" Lin Zhuo sat at the tea table and leisurely poured himself a cup of tea.

Clay pondered for a while, and finally said helplessly: "I can't make the decision, you have to talk to it."

"Okay, please ask it to come out." Lin Zhuo accepted it happily.

Clay closed his eyes, then opened them again after a while and slowly sat up, and this time his eyes turned bright red.

"Dear guest, what can I do for you?" "Clay" touched his chest and looked at Lin Zhuo with a smile in his eyes.

"Nothing." Lin Zhuo crossed his arms and folded his legs: "I want to discuss a business with you."

"Clay" seemed to be interested. He stretched out his hand towards Lin Zhuo and said, "Tell me about it."

"I can make you the new owner of this game, are you interested?"

"Hmm?" "Clay" stroked his chin and thought, then said: "It sounds good, but how to do it? Even our freedom is just stolen from God's fingers. How do you take his possessions from him?"

Lin Zhuo stood up from his chair, sat down beside "Clay"'s bed, and approached him: "I dare to say this, of course I am fully prepared..."

While Lin Zhuo and "Clay" were discussing, Qiuyue was sneaking behind Zhou An with nothing to do.

Without Xiao Yuan, Zhou An was extremely careful with every step he took.

He was well aware of the dangers of the copy, so he did not dare to be as confident as before and could only explore carefully.

Don't be afraid, as long as you can get out, you will be free! Then Xiao Yuan and Yu Yuan will not be able to threaten you! Zhou An comforted himself.

Qiuyue thought for a while, then quickly walked behind Zhou An and patted him on the shoulder.

"Who!" Zhou An felt his legs go weak and he immediately became unable to move.

"Don't be afraid." Qiuyue walked around to Zhou An and greeted him with a smile.

When Zhou An saw that the person coming was a human, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, but his legs were still weak, so he had to sit down on the ground. If someone didn't know him, they would think he had just escaped death.

Qiuyue didn't expect Zhou An to be so timid, which made her feel a little embarrassed: "Did I scare you? Sorry."

Zhou An shook his head and asked her, "What's the matter?"

"I just found a clue, but I couldn't find anyone to form a team. And then I just happened to meet you!" Qiuyue clasped her hands together and smiled.

"Where is Lin Zhuo?" Zhou An remembered that she had been hanging out with Lin Zhuo for the past two days. Why did he suddenly want to cooperate with her?

"He's in a bad mood today." Qiuyue looked very distressed.

Zhou An then asked Lin Zhuo what happened, and Qiu Yue told him sadly, "His wife is gone."

Wen Chuan? Dead?

Zhou An's first reaction was also disbelief. After all, Wen Chuan was the person who seemed to be most at ease besides Xiao Yuan. How could such a person also die in the copy?

"I can't help you with anything." Although Zhou An was tempted, he still shook his head and refused. He knew very well that his own strength would only be a drag.

"No, don't you want to go out?" Qiuyue pulled his arm and begged him.

Yes, he needs clues to leave here!

Zhou An suddenly became silent, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Just when Qiuyue thought there was no hope, Zhou An said, "Okay, I'll go and take a look with you."

Qiuyue was overjoyed when she heard this, and immediately took Zhou An away.

......

"That's a deal." Lin Zhuo nodded to "Clay" and prepared to push the door and leave.

"Hold on."

"Clay" called Lin Zhuo.

"Anything else?" Lin Zhuo turned around and looked at him.

"Clay" sat on the bed, staring at Lin Zhuo with his scarlet eyes, and told him: "Remember, make a wish."
