Chapter 137 The Evil of Human Nature

Zhao Xulin was stunned for a long time before she came back to her senses from the shock that penetrated her bones.

She always felt that she had overestimated Lin Ye's strength. After all, she had seen the performance of Lu Zijin and Ye Yiling, and during the Yunzhou competition, these two people were completely Lin Ye's accessories.

How could such a man be simple?
But when she saw with her own eyes that Lin Ye could toy with the four members of their top knight team with just his own strength, she realized how wrong she was.

Language is so pale and powerless at this moment, and it is impossible to describe Lin Ye who is standing in front of her.

He was like a god of war from mythology, exuding a suffocating sense of oppression in his every move.

Devil, this is the Devil!

Zhao Xulin swallowed hard, trying to calm her pounding heart, and took out a card that was shining with silver light from her pocket.

The card is cold to the touch, with intricate patterns carved on it, faintly exuding an ancient and mysterious aura.

She solemnly handed it to Lin Ye, took a deep breath, and said in a calm tone: "This is the key to the copy. Come on, I believe in you."

Lin Ye took the card, a playful smile appeared on his lips, and asked: "Actually, I'm a little curious. In the previous Yunzhou competition, wasn't the content of that copy broadcast live by Noah's equipment? And this copy, you said there is no useful information, can't we use similar technology of Noah?"

Zhao Xulin smiled bitterly, shook her head and said, "This copy is completely different from all the existing copies. Of course, we have asked Noah for technical support, but..."

She paused, with a barely perceptible fear in her tone, "It's completely useless. Noah's equipment malfunctioned as soon as he entered the dungeon, as if it was blocked by something."

After listening to this, Lin Ye nodded thoughtfully and did not ask any further questions.

He turned to look at the three people behind him who were already stunned, and said in a relaxed tone: "Let's go."

"Okay!" The three of them agreed in unison, with excitement gleaming in their eyes.

The next moment, a dazzling white light enveloped the four people, and they disappeared from the spot out of thin air, leaving only a mess on the ground.

Jiang Bidong slowly got up from the ground and spat out a mouthful of saliva mixed with blood.

He covered his aching chest and sighed helplessly, "This Lin Ye is really a monster. I didn't even see how he attacked before I was knocked away."

Le Xiaolan sat up with a dusty face, patted the dust on his head, and said unhappily: "I call you the Demon King. Demon King, do you understand? Do you think I'm kidding you?"

Zhao Xulin ignored the two people's complaints and just stared blankly at the place where Lin Ye disappeared, with complicated light flashing in her eyes.

"Tell me," she suddenly said, "if we had invited Lin Ye to be our captain and I had been his deputy, would there have been a chance that he would have agreed?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Jiang Bidong and Le Xiaolan, who were originally teasing each other, suddenly became quiet. They looked at each other, and no one dared to respond.

Captain, what does this mean?
The scene before my eyes was like a torn puzzle, pieced together bit by bit to form a vague outline, and finally fixed in a bizarre picture.

There was a lot of noise all around, with sounds of hawking and bargaining coming one after another, just like the noisy scene in a vegetable market.

However, when Lin Ye's vision was fully restored and he could see the surrounding environment clearly, a strong sense of disharmony suddenly came over him. What came into view was a pile of broken tiles and ruins. The high-rise buildings seemed to have been torn apart by some giant beast, revealing the rusty steel skeleton inside. The broken concrete blocks were randomly piled up, like the ruins after the end of the world.

There was not a trace of sunshine in the gray sky. Only thick clouds oppressively covered the earth, adding a bit of gloom to the ruins.

Not far from Lin Ye, there were hundreds of people gathered densely. They were ragged and haggard, but they were still busy in the ruins, looking for any usable resources. This was probably the source of the deafening noise.

Lin Ye blinked subconsciously to make sure he was not hallucinating.

He looked around and found that besides the familiar Lu Zijin, Ye Yiling and Li Weiwei, there were four other people standing in the ruins.

The four of them obviously noticed Lin Ye and his group. They looked at each other warily, their eyes full of vigilance and suspicion, and no one took the initiative to speak to break the silence.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and the air seemed to be filled with gunpowder, ready to explode at any moment.

Li Weiwei moved her feet uneasily. She approached Lin Ye quietly and asked in a low voice: "Lin Ye, what's going on? How did we end up in a place like this?"

Lin Ye felt something was wrong. He looked at Li Weiwei deeply, shook his head, and said in a low voice: "I don't know either. Let's wait and see."

The four people on the opposite side seemed a little impatient. They exchanged glances, and finally a young man wearing glasses and looking gentle and refined asked, "Hello, who are you?"

Ye Yiling took a step forward and asked back without showing any weakness: "What about you? Why are you here?"

The four people on the opposite side seemed to have been prepared. They discussed in a low voice for a few words, and finally the young man with glasses said, "We are an archaeological team. We found the key to this copy in the ruins, so we came in to take a look. What about you?"

Lin Ye couldn't help but laugh out loud: "We are a member of the alliance's direct peak knight team. This dungeon is the alliance's key strategy dungeon."

The four people on the opposite side were surprised when they heard this. They looked at each other and whispered to each other again. Finally, the young man with glasses asked hesitantly, "You said you were from the top knight team of the alliance. Do you have any evidence?"

Lin Ye sneered: "I don't want anything from you, why would I lie to you?"

The four of them thought about it and felt that what Lin Ye said made sense. After all, everyone had entered this strange copy and were at least teammates for the time being.

Only Lu Zijin frowned slightly, walked behind Lin Ye, leaned close to his ear and whispered: "Lin Ye, I feel something is wrong."

Lin Ye looked at her with a half-smile and whispered, "Me too."

At this moment, a cold mechanical voice sounded in everyone's mind:
"The copy has been loaded. Welcome to the copy: [The Evil of Human Nature]."

“Main quest: Decipher the evil of human nature.”

"Side quest: Eliminate the monsters and protect the people."

"Task rewards: calculated based on task completion and score."
