[Martial Arts] Infinite Chamber Game

Lei Chun smiled and called out "Dad" in a crisp voice. Shangguan Jinhong put his hands on the table, stood straight, and responded coldly and reservedly.

He was not an easy-going person, and the reason he agreed was certainly not because he liked Lei Chun, but because he had a hunch that the woman in front of him had something on her mind, and he needed to establish a relationship with her before he could let it out. Shangguan Jinhong was just bored, so he might as well listen to what she was planning.

Lei Chun curled his lips and turned to the people around him and said, "Including him, there are already sixteen of them. Should that be enough?"

Someone said, "That's about it. The maggot nest is very narrow, and too many people will only cause trouble."

Someone else said, "Let's try it first, what if you can't get through?"

Lei Chun nodded: "That's right."

Shangguan Jinhong frowned, his intuition was not good. After all, he was a person who had seen a lot of storms and waves. He reacted very quickly and immediately cut off the live broadcast connection. But how could the Thousand Miles Summoning Technique be immune to it just by cutting off the live broadcast? Deep in his mind, a loud and quick voice rang out, "I'm going to tell my dad!"

Gang Leader Shangguan's eyes suddenly blurred, and the next moment, he appeared with his dining table in the same place as the one in the live broadcast. Above his head was blue sky and white clouds, and under his feet were loess bricks and tiles. He looked around and saw a dozen people around him who were looking around with confused expressions like him.

These people were in different postures. Some were lying on the bed, wrapped in bandages from head to toe, with IV bottles hanging from their hands. Some were holding a sword in one hand and a human head in the other, with half of their bodies covered in blood. Some were covered in dirt, with disheveled hair, and no facial features could be seen, only white teeth...

One of the guys was the worst off. He was taking a shower when he was summoned. He was naked and covered in soap bubbles. He was holding a shower head in his hand. He was covering the thing under him with a look of horror on his face. He angrily shouted at the people who were looking at him, "What are you looking at! Turn around!"

Lei Chun turned her eyes away and considerately found a piece of clothing for the embarrassed stepfather to put on. Then she glanced at everyone one by one and said gently: "Dear godfathers, I, your daughter Lei Chun, am here to pay my respects." After that, she bowed as a young lady would do when meeting her elders.

He was so angry that he started cursing: "How did you get me here? I'm almost clearing the level. It's amazing that you have skills. I'm going to punch you in the head first!" As he was about to go up and hit the man, he was stopped by two people next to him.

The one with a better temper but a more impatient temper also approached and said, "Miss Lei Chun, the matter about my foster father was just a joke, don't take it seriously. Aren't you a storyteller? Why are you here? What is this place?"

"I recognize it! This is Lugaoin! That sewer... Hahahaha, isn't this the place where that group of people danced together?"

"Miss Lei, please let me go back. I'm guarding the city right now! We really can't afford to delay any longer!"

"Stop arguing, which blind bastard stepped on my oxygen tube?"

There was a commotion.

Shangguan Jinhong looked at him coldly without saying anything. He took two mouthfuls of rice in silence and picked up a piece of pickled cabbage with chopsticks. He was very calm and composed. A middle-aged man of about the same age as him had been noticing him for a long time. Seeing him looking at him, he no longer concealed his feelings and bowed directly. He sat down below Shangguan Jinhong. Seeing that there was no wine on the table, he served himself a bowl of rice as a token of his appreciation. Then he said, "I am Li Manqing." He bowed and smiled, "I have heard of your reputation for many years, and today I am fortunate to see it in person."

"Who is Li Xunhuan to you?" Shangguan Jinhong asked.

Li Manqing seemed to be waiting for him to ask, and smiled gently, saying, "It's my father."

Shangguan Jinhong's eyes immediately turned cold, and the bowl in his hand had been broken in two by the sudden murderous aura. Before he could say anything, he heard Lei Chun in front of him say, "I have rashly invited all of you godfathers here today because I really want to trouble you with something."

"I'm sure someone has guessed it. This is Diablo's level. The mission is to kill the three demon gods of hell and destroy the World Stone."

"This task is difficult, and it cannot be completed by just a few people. But with the help of the foster fathers, I think this impossible task is not hopeless."

"My godfathers are all heroes and leaders in their respective worlds. I don't think they would be willing to be controlled by a little girl like me. However, the situation is urgent and I really have no other choice. I hope you can forgive me if I have offended you."

Shi Guanyin said coldly behind her: "Why are you talking so much nonsense? Except for the one who is seriously injured in bed, arrange for everyone to get out quickly. We don't have much time."

Not many indeed.

Back to this morning, when the group was getting ready to set off, Lin Xian'er and Yuan Shisanxian disappeared.

It was hard to say where Lin Xian'er was going. Her interest in men was always wide-ranging and not fixed, so it was normal for her to not come back in time. But a steady man like Yuan Shisanxian couldn't sneak out in the middle of the night to have an affair, right? The key point was that he slept in the same room with Hua Manlou, and he disappeared at night for no reason, without any movement!
Ximen Chuxue was impatient to look for someone, and so was Ye Gucheng. The two of them left first, without traveling together, each going their own way, while the rest stayed in the city to look for someone.

Anyway, Lugaoyin is not big, and it only takes a shout to get from the east to the west of the city. The group shouted and asked, but they didn't find a single one!

It is no use rushing around like a headless fly. Hua Manlou is smarter. He remembers that he has a detective friend, so he immediately contacts Lu Xiaofeng through the live broadcast room and asks him to help analyze the situation.

The live broadcast was successfully connected soon. Before Hua Manlou asked, Lu Xiaofeng said, "Both of them are in the palace. They may have been bewitched by the monster in the palace."

Hua Manlou was somewhat surprised: "How do you know so clearly? Have you learned how to calculate?"

Lu Xiaofeng said: "No need to calculate, I just happened to be free last night and watched your live broadcast."

Hua Manlou: "...what else did you see?"

Lu Xiaofeng said, "No, I just saw the two of them walking straight towards the palace as if they heard some noise. It was the guards' shift change time, and the live broadcast ended after they went in."

"Hua Manlou, you must be extra careful. I have seen the world over there for a long time and have some understanding of it. I am worried that the people who go in may not be the same people when they come out."

"You mean..." Shi Guanyin's eyebrows sank: "I understand what he means. I have heard the legend here. There were some monsters that were sealed in the Soul Stone. If they want to escape, they will look for the right person, tempt them to break the seal, assimilate them, and become their carrier."

"If Lin Xian'er and Yuan Shisanxian are really bewitched by the monster, then we are in trouble."

Wuhua said: "So, we have to send the monsters back to hell before they are assimilated."

If you want to kill monsters, you have to enter the palace. If you want to really enter the palace, you have to get the scepter and the magic box first. If you want to get the scepter and the magic box, you still have to look for them in the desert.

So everything is back to square one.

In the vast desert, the plants growing are very strange, and the monsters are much more difficult to deal with than in the Rogue Camp. There are vultures that can fly in the sky, beetles that are so large that they are difficult to pierce with ordinary swords, and more are skeleton soldiers holding spears and shields.

They seem to have some consciousness, just like the Blood Crow that was assimilated by the devil after death likes to hang the Rogue Soldiers on trees. The Skeleton Monsters here like to tie people to crosses made of wood, chop off their heads, and let the vultures flying around eat them.

Lei Chun didn't know any martial arts, and it wasn't safe for her to stay in the city alone, so she simply followed her teammates. The scene around her made her more and more envious of Hua Manlou's eyesight.

Not long after, they met Ximen Chuxue and Ye Gucheng who had gone ahead. Neither of them was seriously injured, but their faces did not look very good.

"There is a maggot nest over there." Ye Gucheng slowly wiped the green slime off the sword: "The bugs are poisonous." The taste of the antidote is indeed more disgusting than the white and fat bugs that would explode with a single poke of the sword.

Ximen Chuixue said: "I also found a tomb, but..."

But he swallowed back the rest of his words because what happened next was really shameful.

The fact that he could still stand here and talk was inseparable from his superb martial arts skills. At least he was not so embarrassed when he was escaping.

Hua Manlou said: "The magic box and the scepter are probably in these two places. If we go together, we will be able to get them."

The group went to the maggots' nest first. Coincidentally, they arrived just in time when the big insect that was stabbed by Ye Gucheng had finished giving birth. There were 10,800 babies in one litter. Green poisonous mist was gushing out in gusts, choking people so much that they couldn't open their eyes.

The army of larvae was densely packed. Under the scorching sun and yellow sand, a few people fled in panic. Other monsters joined them along the way, and they did not dare to stop at all. If they stopped, they would spray poison. The monsters also pursued them relentlessly, from the distant oasis all the way to the city of Lu Gaoin, until they could no longer see any human figures, and then they slowly retreated.

"We need to find more help."

When they returned to the city, everyone had gloomy faces. Shi Guanyin was the most unlucky, because no matter whether the people she recruited were useful or not, she would first be punched three times.

Before he could even put on his helmet, Lei Chun stood up.

"I have recognized more than ten fathers, and I don't know if I can summon them."

Experiments have shown that gaming skills are somewhat absurd.

Considering that there are 10,800 treasures of maggots and there may be more in the future, Lei Chun explained the situation to his great enemy foster fathers while considering whether to recognize a few more.

Her biological father wasn't in the crowd. It seemed that people who were not brought in by the game couldn't be summoned, which was a pity.

At this time, Li Mochou was not idle either. She rummaged in her arms, took out the bragging record she had written in advance, and distributed it like flyers.

"Take a close look at this." She said seriously, not joking at all. "This is my skill. As long as you believe in it, it will really happen."

Someone immediately said, "I understand the truth, but you can't say you are the Queen Mother, right?"

Li Mochou said proudly: "Why not?"

"Isn't a hundred thousand years of mana a bit too much?"

"The letter is over, why do you care so much?"

"Lu Xiaofeng gave birth to Ximen Chuxue's child?" Someone raised the flyer in his hand: "Why do I remember that she was kicked and had a miscarriage?"

Li Mochou coughed hurriedly, and hurriedly took back the page, crumpling it into a ball in his hand: "You got it mixed up, this is a draft..."

However, Ximen Chuixue had already looked at her: "What?"

Li Mochou said hurriedly: "Nothing, he is crazy and talking nonsense."

"You are the one who has lost his mind!" Lei Chun's adoptive father, who was no one knew how many times, shouted, "The story of Lu Xiaofeng and Ximen Chuxue's love and hatred was written down in black and white by you!"
