I am a reincarnation player.

This made the apostle's eyes twitch slightly. He never thought that this man would be so calm. Looking closely, he couldn't find any signs of forcing himself. This made it even more interesting.

Conspiracies and cunning are useless; only strength can be of use. But now this seed is too powerful, which has shaken its confidence in Adam.

"Send the demon to him, immediately."

Devil?

Elke turned back slightly and warned, "If we send out the demon, we'll lose our last insurance. Given Adam's strength, the demon is the only warrior who can cause a strong enough collision with him."

If the appearance of Yuki was a shortcut, then the collision between Adam and the demon was a conventional method that had been arranged long ago.

"I said immediately!"

The apostle let out a low roar, turning dozens of spectators around him into a bloody mist, as if they had been blasted by a single glance. Then Elke's eyes lost their luster and he nodded in agreement.

No explanation was needed. The apostle turned his head to meet Yuki's gaze and muttered to himself:

"I have a feeling that this time I will be able to attract the attention of God and help me escape from this abandoned place."

"And the prerequisite is that you must die in his hands."

Chapter 20: Blood Flower

A bottomless pit appeared on the ground, but no dust was raised. The dust was annihilated on the spot at the moment of the collision of forces.

With the maximum soul energy injected, two consecutive shots blasted the enemy into pieces, leaving only a golden skull rolling on the ground.

Yuuki took a quick look and then looked away, feeling the burning sensation in his body gradually disappear.

Very strong, an opponent of the same level.

Yuki spent a full forty minutes on this battle, and it wasn't like his previous battles where he tried to disgust the audience.

"At least in close combat, he's my equal. The chainsaw has a bloody flame that can't be extinguished once it gets on me. I can only shave off the piece of flesh."

Yuki grimaced, still feeling the pain. At this level, the blinding effect of the field was no longer effective. Fortunately, the speed of this golden skull was relatively slow, which was an obvious weakness.

There's nothing much to say about the battle process. After Yuki found out that his idea was difficult to implement, he immediately switched to shameless mode.

Shoot in circles, using the Hunter's musket's power to deceive, as its power is proportional to the amount of energy it injects.

First he shot the golden skull with all his strength, causing it to feel fearful. Then he injected a bit of soul energy into it to lure it into a trap. Then he fired another full-power shot, leaving the enemy at a loss as to what to do.

Since it is very dangerous to fight at close range, they can only fight from a distance. Yuki simply uses the Demon Breaker's long sword as a shield, and uses the Tail of Regeneration to repair it if he can't block it.

This was clearly a trick, wasting the enemy's already limited patience. Finally, the golden skull set its own body on fire, transformed into a fire demon and rushed forward, its determination to die making people's scalp tingle.

This is to hug the other person and burn the shameless person to ashes with the fire of anger.

Yuki had no expression on his face. He just took a big gulp of the Serenity Drops and continued to repeat the same tactics until the opponent's strength was exhausted, then he rushed forward to take his life.

Winning is winning. He rarely remembers his enemies. He just waits for the flames to die out and then calculates his gains like a businessman.

"The consumption is enormous. Even though these are warrior-level warriors, there is still not much gain in soul energy."

It was a very strange phenomenon, and what was even stranger was that he had wanted to test the duration of the fight to the death, and deliberately beat his opponent half to death, but what happened was this guy.

When he realized that victory was hopeless, he blew himself up on the spot, almost setting him on fire.

"Fortunately, there are reinforcement points to make up for it."

I earned two more reinforcement points, bringing the total to five. I didn't even have to think about where to use them.

【Enhanced Magic (Master Level)】

[Reinforce all concepts for five minutes.]

Since the Bloodthirsty Red Moon, the first master-level extraordinary skill was completed. Yuki's head suddenly gained a lot of knowledge, and he felt like he knew both the facts and the reasons behind them.

Strengthen the concept and transcend the qualitative change of the substance itself.

Yuki clenched his fist lightly, feeling that if he took a piece of cloth, it would strengthen the concept of "solidity" and make it harder than steel; and if he pointed it as a knife, it would strengthen the concept of "sharpness" and be as fast as a blade. This was no longer within the scope of physics.

Now there is only one reinforcement point left. Yuki thought about it and added it to the Hunter's Rifle, completing its third forging.

Hunter's Double-Barreled Firearm (Superior)

Forging cannot cause any qualitative change, it just adds a type of projectile besides shotgun shells and buckshot, called incendiary bullet, and the description is also very simple.

"Ignite soul energy. Well, that depends on the specific opponent. It's best to have someone who uses soul energy to defend themselves, or a spirit like Pan Zi. The effect should be outstanding."

Yuki couldn't think of many uses for it at the moment, so he just looked at the end of the panel.

Overall evaluation: Extraordinary III

The best thing about the reincarnation game is that you can become stronger while exploring dungeons.

Yuki nodded in satisfaction and snapped his fingers, causing the Dark Night Domain to collapse on the spot.

The darkness faded away, and the dense crowds of spectators appeared again. It was still the familiar smell, and the hostility and dead silence came towards us.

From the auditory point of view, the battle was very intense, with the sound of "bang bang bang" of gunfire ringing out every few seconds, which at least maintained a sense of anticipation. However, after twenty minutes of silence, the enthusiastic atmosphere suddenly cooled down.

Yuki didn't care what the audience thought. He immediately looked at the red figure, who was also looking at him, making no secret of his thoughts.

There was no anger, no sadness, not even much disgust in that look. It was filled with desire, the kind of desire that had lasted for countless years and was about to be fulfilled.

"It seems that I am more useful than I thought?" Yuki was stunned for a moment, and a chill instantly ran down his back.

This proves that the other party wants to make big news, and my strategy does provide a new idea.

"It wants to ignite this atmosphere and then do something, but the key is what it wants to do."

I can't guess it at all, I can only comfort myself from a positive perspective:

The stronger its desire, the safer I am.

But on the other hand, I was a little too strong.

Yuuki nodded slightly to it, and waited for a while to make sure that the other party would not send a second enemy to fight continuously. Then he slowly retreated, turned to face Hayasaka, and winked.

The first battle was won.

The maid breathed a sigh of relief and completely relaxed. She couldn't see through that dark area, so she couldn't help but feel worried.

Yuuki walked towards the lounge, and Hayasaka naturally followed, half a step behind. "While you were fighting, there were warriors fighting to the death."

“How many groups?”

"Two groups. One of them is Adam. His opponent is the Doomsday Knight from Death Arena III."

"How long does it take?"

"Five minutes and thirteen seconds."

Yuki paused for a moment. This was too fast. If he guessed correctly, the difference in combat power between these warriors was not big. Five minutes was enough to explain a lot of problems.

He is terribly strong, but not outrageous. According to Li Mo'an's description, a man like Adam would never let up, which means he would use all his strength in every battle.

If Adam could deal with the plot characters within a minute, Yuuki would start running at full speed immediately. Hesitating for even a second would be irresponsible to his own life.

"Not bad, it seems these deathmatches don't follow the cup rules." Yuki nodded slightly. He originally thought it was a one-on-one fight, and after the quarterfinals would be the semi-finals.

"It should be related to the cult's arrangements. Oh, and Zhang Shuangqiang is about to become a warrior in Death Arena II. He asked me when he can continue with the plan."

"As soon as possible, before the cult arranges an opponent for him." Yuki handed the matter over to Hayasaka in advance.

The maid nodded slightly, knowing that Yuuki had attracted all the attention and couldn't come in person. She lowered her voice and said, "There's news from the senior. She and Hiyori have explored five black buildings in succession and have a lot of clues to compare."

Five? They're both so strong? Nothing's wrong?

Yuki suddenly raised his hand to silence her, and chatted with Abate who was walking towards them, accepting his reluctant congratulations. He also heard that the second opponent would be arranged soon.

It didn't matter anymore. He sent Abate away, quickly entered the lounge and closed the door.

"Tell me, be as detailed as possible."

He didn't even need to remind her, as Hiyori saw this as a golden opportunity and took great risks, sparing no effort in collecting clues.

Senior Mai also took action personally. While using the Light-covering Prayer Instrument to give the Void Puppet some cooling time, she activated the special feature to act separately. Kaguya Shinomiya was responsible for driving, keeping her foot on the accelerator and refusing to waste even a second.

"That red figure is called an apostle?" Yuki frowned. This title alone could explain a lot of problems.

"Yes, Senior heard it herself, and it was discovered by those people in red suits."

"Is she okay?"

Seeing Yuuki turning his head nervously, Hayasaka paused for a moment and replied calmly, "It's okay. The characters in the story are very intuitive, but it's not easy to find Sakurajima Mai. And Kaguya-san is right outside the building. She'll disappear as soon as she hits the accelerator."

so far so good.

Yuki breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Mai and the others had taken a big risk. If a death fight was triggered, it would be troublesome.

The apostles do have a relationship with God.

Yuki thought for a few seconds and felt that he had not gained much. He knew from the beginning that this copy must be related to gods, demons and monsters.

Seeing that he had calmed down, Hayasaka Ai continued to tell the story. Mai and the others also understood the structure of the cult. Those at the bottom wore black suits and were mainly responsible for collecting corpses and guiding players. Those with higher status wore blood-red suits and were the ones who took over the heads and performed the ceremony.

"There are about 4-6 people in each building, distinguished by skull masks. One of them has a golden skull mask."

"That makes eight of them. Golden skulls? Similar to that Elk." Yuki rubbed his chin. No wonder the cult made rules.

Elke can make himself a threat, obviously not inferior to the warriors. The cult is equivalent to holding eight extraordinary strong men in its hands, and there is an unfathomable apostle behind them.

Even if the dungeon starts and the eight player teams start to work together to rebel against Tiangang, they still have the strength to suppress them.

"Where's the blood-red skull?"

"It wasn't discovered, or it would be terrible if it was discovered."

"It seems that the apostle was not bragging." Yuki narrowed his eyes, not surprised.

That is one apostle, eight high-ranking officials with golden skull heads, dozens of weaker cadres in red suits, and a large number of ordinary members.

"Overwhelming strength, do you want me to try it?" Hayasaka Ai asked hurriedly, and it was very simple what she wanted to try.

Whether or not Hint 4 will work on the cult members is not something you can bet on 'theoretically'.

"There's no rush now. If anyone wants to try, I'll do it myself." Yuki decisively refused and calmly asked, "Have you found the database or something?"

"There are no computers or servers inside the building. Hiyori compared the four skull mountains."

The risk was too great, and Hayasaka Ai did not insist. With more reference objects, Hiyori actually discovered some problems.

There is a mountain of skulls on top of which are placed the heads of pure white warriors. These skulls are quite inconspicuous because there are dry bones underneath and they become 'fresher' as you go up. It is undoubtedly a torture to read the details from a pile of bloody and hideous heads.

But Hiyori did it. With a little luck, she saw a head with a white helmet on the top of the skull mountain. It was the remnant of a chaos item.

Upon hearing this, Yuki felt sorry for Hiyori, and she would probably be traumatized for a long time, but this piece of information was extremely important.

He finally understood what role the "player" played in this dungeon, and why the cult, which possessed overwhelming military power, had such little presence.

Eight columns, eight death arenas, eight player teams, all of which correspond to each other one by one.

That is the soil from which eight seeds will blossom—

A gorgeous blood-red flower.

Chapter 21: Copy Logic Analysis

The absurd plot is slowly being connected by logic.

The cylinders, the death arena, and the players began to correspond to each other, and the population problem that had puzzled Link City was also solved.

According to what Hiwa observed, the head was cut off, but the body dissolved into blood and was directly absorbed by the black building.

Although I don't know what the principle is, it proves that those "people" did not come out of thin air, but more like a cycle.

"They don't care about our search for the truth or whether there is any conspiracy hidden behind it." Hayasaka Ai reported everything with a strange expression on her face.

"It's not that exaggerated. These NPCs are simply not good at plotting." Yuki patted her hand and consoled her with a smile, "If they really didn't care, that apostle wouldn't have had to hide his identity. Didn't you notice that he never introduced himself from beginning to end?"

Hayasaka thought about it and felt that it made some sense, and her mood improved a little.

The group of players led by Zhang with two guns must be looking for it as well, but there really isn't much they can find. People here don't fall for empty talk and won't be deceived, so they can only fight head-on.

"It's not that the cult is calm, it's just that the seniors are very good. By the way, have they gone back to rest?"

"I've already gone back. It will probably take a while for Hiyori to recover." Hayasaka answered silently. Hiyori lost two void puppets, which was equivalent to experiencing the feeling of being killed twice.

In addition, Hiyori Shiina and Mai Sakurajima each received two reinforcement points as rewards, and even Kaguya Shinomiya, who was driving, received one. With the system's endorsement, it proved that they could not be deceived.

The secret was being further revealed. Yuuki held his cheek, and roughly understood how this absurd copy worked:
