Players are coming, fortunately I have a time travel simulator

There are always fools under greed. Sometimes restraint is more important than greed.

Zhou Ning took a few steps forward, urging the ripples to burn Archibald's body to ashes. Although he didn't know if he would be resurrected, he still understood the principle of prevention.

He picked up a gelatinous object with strange markings that had fallen to the ground. It was a transcendental item dropped by lord-level monsters, and could be crafted into various transcendental equipment, or even unknown artifacts, by skilled alchemists or craftsmen.

Just like the Traveler's Ring made by Windgun in Zhou Ning's hand.

At that moment, a bone-chilling wind suddenly blew through the hall, as if something new was happening. Zhou Ning was startled, looking back at the deep corridor and listening to the uncontrolled movements of the undead on the way in. He sensed a cold and powerful force approaching from deeper within the temple. Zhou Ning raised his hat and bowed slightly in that direction.

No need to send me far away.

Although there were still 6 minutes before the main account went offline, Zhou Ning did not deliberately wait for the change to occur. He immediately chose to leave the temple with his two burdens.

Circling the winding corridors, Zhou Ning encountered hordes of undead, and even saw a student and a professor dead on the road. The professor had been killed by a weapon similar to a harpoon, and it was speculated that it was the undead walrus who did it.

Feeling the powerful force getting closer and closer to him, Zhou Ning had no intention of holding back. He turned on the unparalleled mowing mode and crushed the past smoothly. He neither stopped nor chose to pick up the spoils along the way. He went straight through the corridors full of reliefs and the large gables covered with murals. Not far ahead, he could see the deep doorway of the temple.

At the doorway, a walrus holding a harpoon was wandering back and forth. Suddenly, a strong icy aura was getting closer behind him. Zhou Ning focused his eyes, stepped hard, and approached the enemy like a ghost.

The two players expected a fierce battle, but were stunned to discover: With a flick of his black windbreaker, he swung his fist, launching an all-out attack! A shocking damage value popped up, and the ferocious-looking walrus's health bar quickly emptied, collapsing to the ground.

[You killed the boss creature: Walrus Ik, accounting for 47% of the damage output. You gained 59000 experience points.]

One punch to kill.

After killing the walrus, the view in front suddenly became clear, and I could see the gloomy scenery outside and the heavy snow.

Ignoring the two players' wide-eyed and confused expressions, Zhou Ning carried them and took a step forward to activate the teleportation effect in the Traveler's Ring again. The three figures suddenly faded and became invisible, and then appeared in an open space in the distance.

At the same time, accompanied by a gust of biting cold wind, a blurry female ghost suddenly rushed out from the gate, stirring up a cloud of flying snow. After a moment, she reluctantly retreated into the temple, and the gate closed again with a "click".

As the 15-minute countdown ended, the epic vampire's possession effect quietly disappeared. Feeling the power suddenly drained from his body, Zhou Ning breathed a sigh of relief silently.

Compared to the first time I used the possession card, the feeling of using the card this time was even more profound. It was a power that was almost overwhelming, so strong that even I felt shocked.

He is worthy of being able to fight the Hulk on equal terms with just hand-to-hand combat.

However, when recalling the details of the battle just now, Zhou Ning couldn't help but be speechless. He felt that the vampire version of himself was too fond of showing off. It was completely inconsistent with his low-key and introverted personality.

Zhou Ning complained in his heart while taking out his pocket watch to check the time. It was almost 1 p.m. He looked up at the majestic buildings standing in the distance. The nearly four-hour exploration just now was the most dangerous adventure he had ever experienced. If he hadn't used this possession card and hadn't had the unknown artifact, the Traveler's Ring, he doubted that he might not have escaped alive.

Not far away, the expedition team who were hesitating whether to evacuate also spotted Zhou Ning. Luo Qian hurriedly waved to Zhou Ning: "Here!"

Quickly calming down, Zhou Ning calmly walked over. Well, now his persona is that of a powerful man who just defeated a powerful enemy, and he can't lose his momentum. He saw Leonardo coming over and bowed to him respectfully:

"You are the bravest person I have ever met. You dared to sacrifice yourself for your companions and fight a monster like that alone."

"Actually, you're not to blame for what happened to my brother. Let's put this matter behind us. Now I owe you."

No, you misunderstood... This is not about being brave enough to sacrifice for one's companions, it's purely the vampire template's need to show off... Zhou Ning complained silently.

At this time, many students and even professors, including Chris, expressed their surprise and admiration.

"I'm glad you came back alive. You saved all of us. I wanted to stay and fight with you just now, but my condition was too bad at the time, and I couldn't help you much by staying." Edwin walked up to Zhou Ning and said with a smile.

It can be seen that after what happened just now, Edwin no longer regards him as a student, but as a strong man of the same level as himself.

"Mr. Edwin, you're too polite. I was just trying to protect myself." Zhou Ning said with a smile, "I wasn't very confident in the situation just now, but fortunately I was lucky enough to kill Archibald."

"What?" Edwin couldn't help but be surprised. He originally thought that Zhou Ning had just escaped Archibald's pursuit, but he didn't expect that he actually killed the other party.

You have to know that he is Sir Archibald the Fire of Justice, one of the four heroes, a legendary hero!

To prove his point, Zhou Ning took out the rune sword from Archibald from the inventory and handed it to Edwin.

"Very impressive." After asking for some details, especially after learning that the Temple of Death might contain even greater dangers, Edwin took a deep breath and said to Zhou Ning, "Wick University will remember your contribution, and you will also have my full friendship."

Zhou Ning's panel prompted:

[Vic University's favorability towards you increases by 5000 points!]

[Vic University: Respect (3000/6000)]

[Your reputation in the Earth Temple has increased by 1000 points!]

[Earth Temple: Friendly (1000/1200)]

On the other side, two players also received panel prompts, which opened two new camps, namely Wick University and Temple of Earth.

"We really made a lot of money from this hidden mission. As expected, we have to follow the protagonist!" The two of them couldn't help but shed tears.

Zhou Ning was also quite surprised at this time. The reputation of Wick University was quite useful. You know, this is the university with the deepest heritage in the Apocalypse World. Many books in the library, including many rare formulas of the alchemy department, require reputation or credits to exchange.

The Temple of Earth is a must-have reputation for Knights and Meteorologists. It is not very useful to oneself, but there will always be a time when they are useful.

After returning to the camp, the expedition team did not stop but broke camp directly and trekked all the way back to the previously agreed meeting point. The other half of the expedition team led by Rachel was already waiting there.
