Infinite Puzzle City

Chapter 594 Exposed

"Feel sorry."

Looking at the Qilin lying in her arms, Xiao Ran felt apologetic. Qilin was actually a pretty good person, generous and loyal.

She was willing to help him simply because she hoped Xiao Ran could give her some pointers.

Aside from his talent being somewhat lacking, overall he's pretty good.

But that doesn’t mean he’s innocent.

There are innocent people in the drug testing building, and Xiao Ran really can't feel any sympathy for Qilin.

After killing the Qilin, Xiao Ran quickly activated the [Suppressing Calamity Order - Transporter], opened his palm, and launched the privileged spirit book at the Qilin's corpse.

Privilege 2: The Book of Spirits

You can use the Spirit Book on a corpse to browse its memories, skills, profession, and destiny.

A light blue book slowly emerged from the Qilin's body.

After the Suppression Order is upgraded, you can directly plunder without stitching up corpses, and you can even directly plunder the opponent's profession through the Spirit Book.

However, there is a prerequisite: energy must be exchanged for it.

The energy of the [Suppressing Calamity Order] can only be obtained by stitching up corpses.

Opening the Qilin's spiritual book, Xiao Ran quickly searched through his memories.

Po Jin seemed to be aware of his nephew's tendency to be more trouble than good, so Qilin was put in charge of logistics, which naturally included the hospital's layout and external communication methods.

Besides this information, Xiao Ran also saw the true colors of many people that Qilin revealed after luring them in and signing drug trial contracts, just like the fellow villagers who tricked you into going to northern Myanmar to get kidneys.

This further confirms that this guy truly deserved to die.

After reviewing the Qilin's memories and learning what she wanted to know, Xiao Ran put the Qilin's corpse into her spatial storage and then went straight upstairs to her office.

The labyrinth is supposed to be a separate, individual space, and the hospital is no exception. It's not easy to contact the outside world from within the labyrinth; it requires the power of cursed objects.

For example, Wu Man gave herself the "Sound-Transmitting Cherry" or her "Dream-Giving Tea".

However, the former is too precious, and the latter is too mysterious, and both require the water from the River of Longing for Relatives that one brings from the underworld to be effective.

The Changchun Association certainly has the means to produce such props, but the problem is that such a large organization is constantly in contact with each other.

Using such cursed objects to connect with each other is something even the Changchun Society would likely be unable to afford.

However, the Changchun Society has many experts, and they designed a cursed object called the "Sound Transmission Telephone".

That is, the phone in Qilin's office.

This device can contact the outside world three times a day, but only with a landline. It cannot directly contact the real world, but that's enough for most purposes.

This is the only way for the hospital to contact the outside world without using special equipment.

Xiao Ran strode upstairs.

As soon as I walked up the stairs, I saw Avatar and the others walking this way with long faces.

As the three walked, they scratched their arms and legs vigorously, especially Avatar, whose face was covered with red scratch marks.

The three of them were also taken aback when they saw Xiao Ran. Avatar called out to Xiao Ran, "Doctor Wu, are you itchy?"

As they spoke, the three of them began to scrutinize Xiao Ran.

"It itches!" Xiao Ran nodded, exaggeratingly saying, "I'm also incredibly itchy, and I started itching earlier than you guys."

The three Avatars exchanged glances. Xiao Ran said he was itchy, but his relaxed demeanor was nothing like theirs. Just as they were about to ask Xiao Ran what was wrong, he suddenly opened his hands: "Look, my hands are so itchy."

As he spoke, Xiao Ran slammed his fist into Avatar's face, the immense force breaking Avatar's nose.

Following Xiao Ran, he thrust his left hand into Avatar's bursting chest cavity, twisted his waist and spun around, grabbed Avatar's body and slammed it hard against Agan and Adai behind him. The sound of Avatar's spine exploding was like a firecracker, and his body suffered a huge blow in an instant.

Although Agan and Adai's nicknames don't sound very smart, they are actually quite quick-witted. After catching the Avatar together, the moment their eyes met, they immediately threw the Avatar to Xiao Ran and ran away without looking back.

Xiao Ran's sudden attack caught them off guard, but they had witnessed Xiao Ran's methods before and knew that fighting him would be a dead end. Their only option now was to run away.

Their reactions were quick, but Xiao Ran's speed was even faster.
With a single step, he instantly appeared beside the two brothers. Behind him, a fluorescent glow flickered, and the Yin God's Dharma Image solidified, its five fingers striking Ah Dai's head like lightning.

"Go to hell!!"

Sensing the approach of death, Ah-Dai, unsure whether to feel fear or rage, leaped up with the speed he had never possessed before, simultaneously drawing a cursed object from his hand—a horse-slaying cleaver—and thrusting it horizontally.

"Dragon Split!!"

Flames danced on the blade. Under the pressure of death, Ah Dai seemed to enter a state of self-forgetfulness. His once shy and difficult-to-understand swordsmanship now flowed naturally like clouds and water, and its power was many times greater than before.

"I broke through!"

Ah Dai felt a surge of secret joy. At the brink of life and death, he seemed to have finally gained enlightenment, his swordsmanship had entered the Dao, and he now possessed the potential to advance to the level of a top-tier master.

Ah Dai's joy didn't last even a second. The next moment, the blade struck the palm of the Yin God's Dharma Image, but it didn't cleave the Yin God's Dharma Image in front of him as he had expected.

With a muffled "bang," the flames dissipated, and an immense, unstoppable force surged along the blade. While surprised by the weapon's incredible strength, Ah-Dai tried to use the force to retreat and create distance.

"Watch out!!" But then came the shouts of his companion, Forrest Gump, from beside him.

Xiao Ran's true form appeared in his left blind spot, unleashing a punch called "Intercepting the River," which slammed into Ah Dai's temple. The immense force pierced through his skull and shattered his cerebellum.

"grass!!"

Seeing that Ah Dai was dead, Ah Gan cursed loudly, realizing that Xiao Ran was too fast and there was no way to escape. So he gritted his teeth and took out a three-eyed musket from his space.

The musket is covered in greenish-blue patina, making it look more like an antique. If you threw it on the street, it would probably only be considered scrap metal.

But as Agan's runes flashed and flowed into the musket, the originally decaying musket now shimmered with golden light.

"Fuck your mother, I'll fight you to the death!!"

With red eyes, Agan raised his musket and aimed it at Xiao Ran.

But the next second, the ground suddenly sank, revealing a pool of corpses. With a thought from Xiao Ran, he commanded, "Corpse Coffin Town!"

A coffin rose from the pool of corpses and put Agan inside it. The coffin was then swallowed up by the pool. Soon, a muffled thunder rumbled from below the pool, but only a few large bubbles rose to the surface before all was quiet.

After taking down three people, Xiao Ran didn't even catch his breath.

To be fair, the three Avatars are quite strong, especially Avatar, whose swordsmanship is so advanced that it means he has grasped the key to becoming a C-level professional.

He was just too unlucky. He met the wrong person at the wrong time and in the wrong place, and he couldn't escape from Xiao Ran's clutches.

At this moment, Xiao Ran concealed his aura, put the corpses of Avatar and Ah Dai on the ground into the Yin Soldier Gourd, and strode straight towards Qilin's office.

On the way, we encountered two more employees from the Changchun Association.

The two of them were so itchy that they scratched their ears and cheeks, and before Xiao Ran even had to lift a finger, they were already lying on the ground, frantically tearing at their bodies.

Xiao Ran walked over and easily snapped their necks.

"You two are really lucky. Wait a little longer. Right now it's just a tickle on the skin. In a little while, it will be a tickle in the flesh. When it gets to the bone, it will be worse than death."

The curse Xiao Ran set up was called "Ghost Lighting the Lamp".

This suppression technique isn't a complicated one, but if you're filled with turbid energy, it can be fatal.

These guys have been hanging around this godforsaken place every day, their bodies are already filled with resentment and the smell of death. Xiao Ran just lit a fire on them, but he didn't expect them to burn so fiercely.

"Om..."

Pushing open the office door, Xiao Ran ignored the phone on the desk, turned around and walked to the wardrobe next to the desk, opening the wardrobe door.

With a punch, Xiao Ran smashed open the shelf behind the wardrobe, revealing an old-fashioned black telephone in front of her.

The phone has two wires: one is a black telephone wire that connects to nothingness, and the other wire connects to the telephone on the table outside.

Destroying the phone on the table won't do any good; only destroying it will cut off contact with the outside world.

Just as Xiao Ran took out the guillotine, preparing to destroy the thing...

"Buzz..."

The phone in front of me suddenly started flashing, and at the same time, the phone on the table started ringing.

Seeing this, Xiao Ran hesitated for a moment, then walked to the table and picked up the phone.

"Hey!"

"I am Riki-Oh, I'm almost there, please have someone meet me."

"King of Strength?"

Xiao Ran pondered for a moment. In Beast Master's memory, there was only one name for this person. He was not a member of Beast Master's faction, but rather the most mysterious head manager among the four major leaders.

This head manager was the major owner of Fusheng Money Shop, who controlled the flow of funds in the Changchun Club. Back then at the Seventh Middle School, the sign of truce that Kuang Jianbo wore came from Fusheng Money Shop.

Li Wang is a master trained by Fusheng Money Shop. His strength is unknown. Qilin may have some information in his memory, but it's probably too late for him to search for it now.

Just as Xiao Ran was pondering what Li Wang was doing here, Qinghai Laomo and Jin Chanzi arrived at the office door.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Ran immediately summoned the Azure Skeleton Demon and telepathically transmitted a message: "This one is called Li Wang. Test his intentions."

Qinghai Old Demon immediately understood Xiao Ran's meaning, picked up the phone, and said with a smile, "Oh, Brother Li, what brings you here? It's Taurus."

The old demon Qinghai imitated Taurus's tone. He had perfectly integrated into the role of Taurus during this period, and his words were natural and relaxed.

However, after a moment of silence on the phone, Li Wang's cold voice was heard saying, "Taurus, Rat, and Mountain Dragon, what are you doing here?"

"They are still hunting down that traitor. I'm here waiting for the No. 3 potion, and I'll join them after I break through."

"Hehe, is that so? Alright, let's have a proper chat when we meet."

Li Wang didn't say much on the phone and hung up immediately. Hearing the hanging-up sound, Qinghai Laomo turned to look at Xiao Ran and sighed, "We're probably exposed."
