Quick Transmigration: Striving Every Day to Overcome Tribulation

Chapter 32: NPC 4 in the Infinite Holy Father story

Seeing that Su Su seemed lost in thought, Yu Que felt a pang of worry.

"What's wrong?" he asked softly.

Su Su gently shook her head, her eyes inadvertently sweeping over Yu Que's hands, only to see that there were indeed some small wounds and red marks on those originally beautiful and fair hands.

An unpleasant emotion instantly surfaced in her mind; in her opinion, beautiful, fair hands were no longer attractive with wounds.

As Yu Que walked along the road with Su Su, he noticed that Su Su's expression was off and his heart tightened, thinking that she was unhappy.

So he quickly said, "I should have contacted you sooner, I'm sorry."

However, he did not explain the reasons or specific circumstances.

A silence fell between them, as if the air had frozen.

The journey was unusually quiet, and they encountered no danger. They arrived safely at the only inn in the carving city. Su Su glanced at Yu Que, then parted ways with him, each returning to their own room.

Su Su slept soundly that night, without a single dream. In the early morning, she was awakened by a sharp scream.

Her heart tightened, and she quickly opened the door. She saw a thin layer of mist hanging in the corridor outside. The mist seemed to have a life of its own, flowing slowly and giving people a sense of oppression.

When she arrived at the hotel entrance, a pungent smell of blood hit her.

The sky outside the hotel was so gloomy it looked like it was about to drip water, with dark clouds pressing low overhead, making it hard to breathe.

Red bloodstains were splattered all over the ground near the entrance, starkly visible in the dim light. The bloodstains resembled blooming evil flowers, exuding an aura of death.

The deceased lay there quietly, his body twisted, his face frozen in terror.

The surrounding air seemed to freeze at the horrific scene, sending chills down one's spine.

Only after Yu Que explained did she realize that someone else had died. The remaining surviving players were very unhappy that Yu Que had brought an NPC with her.

They gathered around and started criticizing Yu Que all at once.

"How could you bring an NPC with you? That's too dangerous!"

"She might be the murderer. You're going to get us all killed!"

Yu Que frowned and said firmly, "Su Su is not the murderer. I believe her."

The players, however, persisted, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Su Su didn't say anything, but went straight back to her room.

Players should handle their own affairs, since they are the ones in control of the game.

She was just an ordinary, insignificant NPC.

Life in the Sculpture City was uneventful, as if everything was proceeding smoothly according to a predetermined plan.

She had been living here for several days and had never encountered any danger. Life here was peaceful and tranquil, without any ups and downs or unexpected events.

She lived her life step by step, as if it were a pre-programmed routine, regular and monotonous.

Moreover, Yu Que previously mentioned that the tour guide advised against going out at night. Was it really because there was danger at night?

She had serious doubts about this.

She has walked this road at night many times, and each time she has come out unharmed.

To her, the Sculpture City at night was not much different from the daytime; it was just as tranquil and peaceful.

Not long after, Yu Que appeared before Su Su in a disheveled state.

His clothes were disheveled, his hair was a little messy, and his face was covered in dirt, making him look quite pitiful.

Especially their pitiful appearance makes people feel sorry for them, while also arousing a strange urge to destroy.

However, even if I hadn't bullied him, just seeing him like this would make me feel a little annoyed.

"Who bullied you?" Su Su asked with heartache and concern.

Her gaze was fixed on Yu Que, her eyes revealing deep worry.

Seeing the injury on Yu Que's face, she felt even more heartbroken. Of all places to hit, he had to hit her face.

Unfortunately, another player has died.

The player who died at the entrance was a female player named Su Ye.

Then, while everyone was arguing, the more experienced and cautious female player suddenly collapsed.

Her eyes still held shock and fear; her heart felt hollow.

Now, only Yu Que and Zhao Gao remain as players.

The wounds on Yu Que's body were inflicted by Zhao Gao.

Although the wound was not fatal, it served as a constant reminder of the tense relationship between Yu Que and the others.

They had been searching for the Heart of Carving, and yesterday, they were convinced that the carved heart would truly complete the task, for which they had put in tremendous effort.

However, when they eagerly awaited the notification that the task was complete, they were met only with disappointing silence.

Last night, when Zhao Gao saw Yu Que and Su Su return from outside, he secretly used the puppet talisman he had exchanged to control Su Ye to go out.

Unconsciously, Su Ye was manipulated like a puppet, step by step walking into the trap of death.

In the end, she collapsed alone in the darkness, becoming yet another victim of this cruel game.

In a life-or-death game, don't rely too much on others or beg them to save you.

Just then, Su Su smelled a faint scent of burning charcoal and a pungent smell of smoke.

She was startled, a bad feeling welling up inside her.

Soon, they discovered that Zhao Gao had gone mad.

When most of the players had died, he tried to break through the game instance to survive.

He resorted to all sorts of extreme measures, regardless of the odds, just for that slim chance of survival.

Three days had passed, and by the second day, only two of the seven players remained.

Zhao Gao knew that he had to ensure he was the one who survived.

His eyes were filled with madness and determination, as if he had lost his mind.

Su Su hugged Yu Que tightly as she jumped down. Although her body was carved from jade, she was still afraid of fire.

"Damn it, all the living things in the Sculpture City are flammable, it's insane."

Su Su was filled with anger and helplessness. She had already discovered that this city was inescapable and contained only flammable materials, which made her feel utterly hopeless.

The residents that Su Su had seen in the past few days seemed to have lost their minds, and they rushed towards Zhao Gao in a frenzy, devouring him alive.

"Those who wound the city deserve to die."

Their voices sounded like they came from hell, sending chills down your spine.

After Zhao Gao was completely dead and devoured, the sculpted features of the residents became more pronounced, their stiff movements and indifferent eyes chilling.

Soon, they turned their attention to Yu Que.

Without hesitation, Su Su shielded Yu Que behind her, saying, "Hurry up and use your points to exchange for a chance to survive."

Yu Que opened his mouth, as if to say something, "I..."

Before he could finish speaking, Su Su interrupted him, "Don't hesitate, let's go!"
