S-level high-risk personality, you call this a pitiful thing?

Chapter 135: Mouyu Village - Night
Lu Li's silence made Lan Tong feel that there was something hidden in her answer.

When Lan Tong was about to ask for clarification, footsteps coming up the stairs were suddenly heard outside the door.

"Boom...boom...boom..."

The stairs in the residence are made of wood and make a lot of noise when you step on them.

It’s so late, who would come up from downstairs?
Lan Tong wasn't sure how much time she had wasted fighting with Lu Li just now. She checked the time in the system and it was exactly ten o'clock and five minutes.

It was almost 8:15 when they came up from downstairs. The other chosen ones should have returned upstairs at no more than 9 o'clock after the meeting, because it was completely dark outside at that time, and the gloomy clouds made the dark night in the mountains without a trace of light.

The two huge mountains in the distance are like the guards of an iron cage, standing quietly in the distance and staring silently, as if using their powerful presence to cut off the mountain dwellers' thoughts of leaving.

I just wasted almost another hour in space.

Lan Tong remembered that Aqiang came to deliver the meal at six o'clock in the afternoon. It was already dark at that time. The candles of the two foreigners who lit the candles at the beginning were half burned when they went downstairs for a meeting.

That's about two hours.

And now it is exactly ten to five, so the candle that was lit at the beginning may have been completely extinguished now.

The white candle on the windowsill had only burned less than one-tenth of its original size. There was no problem using the white candle to get through the night. No wonder A Qiang asked her and Ji Yu to hide the white candle so that no one could see it.

Thinking of Aqiang's instructions, Lan Tong lay quietly on the bed and stared at the ceiling.

The ears are always monitoring the movements outside.

The village chief's target tonight is Lilika. There is only Ji Yu between Lilika and Lan Tong. If anything happens to Lilika tonight, Ji Yu will definitely be the first to hear it.

As the footsteps grew louder, Lan Tong quietly waited for what would happen next.

In a space.

Lu Li sat on the sofa in silence for a long time. She couldn't figure out what was going on.

Looking up at the shared vision, I found that something seemed to be happening in the copy.

While Lan Tong was not paying attention, she got up and quietly opened the system screen. After entering a string of messy codes, a hidden email interface appeared.

She hadn't opened her mailbox for such a long time that it was already filled with a bunch of emails.

The most recent one was from Yunmu.

There was no text in the email.

Only one picture is attached.

This is a photo of Lan Tong in the previous copy. Judging from the angle, it was taken in the deep water of the swimming pool.

Yunmu was warning her that she and Lantong had been discovered by her.

It was also a deliberate mockery of her.

Using an ordinary picture to announce the game between the two people, Lu Li had no chance of winning, because everything Lu Li did was done under Yunmu's nose.

Lu Li turned a blind eye to it, created a new email, typed out a bunch of words and sent it to someone on the list.

She wanted to know...what Lan Tong's existence had to do with her.

Why are they so similar and have [Twin Shadows] in their bodies?
……

"Boom...boom...boom..."

The people in the corridor have reached the second floor.

The footsteps became louder at the corner, and Lan Tong's heart tightened.

Can Aqiang’s words really be trusted?
The person in the corridor took a few steps and then stopped.

Lan Tong breathed a sigh of relief.

Those few steps were not enough to reach her door. According to the distance, they could only reach the door of Lilika's room, which was closest to the corridor.

"Boom bang bang-"

The heavy knock on the door was terrifying in the dead of night.

Lan Tong didn't believe that everyone in the other rooms was asleep. Everyone was silent, but they were all waiting to hear the sound outside the door.

Seeing that the person inside the door didn't move, the man continued to knock on the door.

Inside the house, the red candle on the ground was about to burn out.

Lilika curled up in the quilt, trembling with fear.

Why are there still Chosen Ones out at this late hour?
She lived near the stairs, and since she entered the house, she hadn't heard anyone coming downstairs.

After the meeting, she and Lucas were the last to come up. They stayed a little longer on purpose to discuss cooperation with the black gang that had already formed an alliance with them on the first floor.

Could it be that someone from that group of black people came up to look for her?

Just as Lilika was thinking, she suddenly heard a creaking sound.

It sounded like the friction of metal objects, a bit harsh, but... what made her heart beat suddenly was that the sound seemed to come from inside the house...

She quietly opened a gap and looked out. The scene before her made her scream.

"what!!!"

The door was not tightly closed, there was a gap at the bottom, and a strange dark purple tentacle was sticking out from outside the door, trying to open the locked door.

Her shrill voice cut through the night air.

Then there was a loud "boom" and the silent night outside the window was suddenly filled with a deafening thunder. The whole village was illuminated in a pale white in the moment of lightning.

Equally pale was Lilika's terrified face, covered in cold sweat.

……

Lan Tong was also startled by the thunder.

The sound was so loud and sudden, just like a bolt of lightning that could split the mountain directly after Lilika's scream, and even the earth shook.

"Wow--"

The heavy rain came without warning, as if the sky was split open, and trillions of tons of water poured down, trying to flood the entire world.

The soundproofing of the residence is very poor, and the sound of rain enters the house along with the muffled thunder.

Lan Tong vaguely heard Lilika's cry for help.

But for some reason, she found that what she heard was not the strange Daxia language after translation, but the foreign language of Lilika's country.

She was chattering away in a myriad of ways, but I couldn't make out what she was saying due to the noise of the rain. I could only vaguely hear that she started out with a timid warning, and then started shouting the names of some foreigners in fear, trying to get help.

She screamed again, this time in agony and shrillness.

"Dengdengdeng..."

A burst of messy footsteps was heard, and Lilika seemed to rush out of the room, and the sound became a little clearer.

She knocked on Ji Yu's door next door frantically.

"Ji Yu! help! please——"

There were cries mixed with painful pleas, but there was no movement in the house.

Ji Yu learned from Lan Tong that the target tonight was Lilika, and Lan Tong concluded that he would not help.

The door of the next room was almost broken by Lilika.

She seemed to be caught up by that thing again and screamed in pain again.

Ji Yu closed the door tightly, and he didn't seem to have any intention of helping. Lilika's request for help was fruitless, so she had to knock on other people's doors desperately.

Lan Tong was a little confused. Lilika was also a chosen one who had cleared many dungeons. Where were her talents? Where were her props?
Whoever Lilika knocks on the door will pretend to be dead.

She was constantly attacked in the corridor, from begging with tears in the beginning to cursing out of anger and shame later.

Although Lan Tong couldn't understand bird language, she could tell that every "f**k" she uttered was a curse, and that every sentence included a foreigner's name.
